Upon hearing this, Jiang Si's pupils suddenly constricted, and she blurted out involuntarily, "Ancient texts record that dragons are inherently promiscuous, and that dragons have nine sons, each different... uh, all having nine sons means they have different mates..."
As Jiang Si spoke, she suddenly realized that she had never seen a dragon before coming to the Abel Galaxy, and her knowledge of dragons was only from books.
Right in front of him was a genuine dragon. To say that dragons are inherently promiscuous and have nine different sons was like slapping him in the face, telling him that dragons are scoundrels and will never be faithful to their mates.
"The dragon has nine sons, each different from the last. It doesn't mean they were born from the same dragon!" Cangying wasn't angry but reminded him, "It just means they were born from a dragon. Dragons are a race. In ancient Chinese legends, all things have spirits and can cultivate. When the time is right, they can take human form. Whether they are demons or humans, you can't stop them from communicating in human form."
Cangying's words were like a wake-up call. Jiang Si's greatest strength was her ability to take things easy and her courage to recognize her mistakes and apologize: "It's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault for being short-sighted. Before I met you, my knowledge of dragons was either the dragon that the Fourth Civilization lost or what I read in books. I had never seen anything else."
If Long Ruozhen truly had only one partner throughout his life, as Cangying had said, and if his partner died, he would die with him.
His Majesty's brother's mental and physical strength is not as good as Agares'. Even with Bo Jichen's support, which could extend his lifespan to three to five hundred years, it is still pitifully short compared to Bo Jichen's thousand-year lifespan.
If His Majesty's brother dies, given that scoundrel's love-struck personality, he will definitely die too; he will definitely die with His Majesty's brother.
Suddenly, Jiang Si couldn't help but feel a self-deprecating smile. She had never thought about death, and even if Agares died three or five hundred years later, she would never think about dying.
Perhaps, as Shu Xubai said, they are cold-hearted by nature, have witnessed too much joy and sorrow, life and death, and have experienced too much bloodshed and violence. They are so cold that they would rather be dead than live. Even if they like someone or love them, they would not die for them.
Cangying narrowed his golden black eyes slightly: "It's not your fault. It's normal to have all sorts of questions about unknown creatures, whether you read about them in books or hear about them from others."
"Thank you for understanding, thank you for understanding!" Jiang Si grinned. When she was happy, she liked to give things to others. She had already given Cangying a lot of fruit, but she felt it wasn't enough, so she gave him a lot more, as well as vegetables that could be eaten raw, stir-fried, or pickled.
The basket after basket made Cangying feel like his space was about to burst, which indirectly showed that Jiang Si's space was extremely large, much larger than his own.
He came down from upstairs as he packed the last basket of vegetables into the space, dressed in a military uniform, wearing a military cap and military boots, with a tall and straight figure, piercing eyes, and sharp features.
It has to be said that military uniforms, caps, and boots are a major plus for men. Just wearing this outfit can easily add more than ten points to a man's appearance and make him stand out.
Agares walked over to Cangying and Jiang Si and said, "You can go now!"
Jiang Sicangying stood up: "Let's go!"
The three of them left the room together and boarded the aircraft. Aircraft are faster than cars and don't linger on the road for too long. In addition, there is less air traffic control than on the road, making aircraft the best choice for long-distance travel.
The aircraft disappeared into the sky and flew far away. Jiufeng appeared at the door in a white robe, looking up at the sky with deep eyes and a dark expression.
After an unknown amount of time, Shu Xubai's lazy voice sounded behind him: "Little Phoenix, eavesdropping is not the behavior of a gentleman. The way you are is really putting me in a difficult position!"
Jiufeng's heart skipped a beat, and she turned around abruptly, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes: "I...I..."
"Shh~" Shu Xubai raised his index finger to his lips, his black pupils turned red, and he exuded a wicked and bloodthirsty aura: "No need to explain, little phoenix. You just need to know that you only have one chance. I have already given you one. You must not do anything to disappoint me again."
Jiufeng lowered her eyes to suppress the panic within, and when she looked up again, her eyes were clear and calm: "Shu Xubai, between me and Jiang Si, who do you choose?"
Shu Xubai's face darkened instantly. He stepped forward, grabbed Jiufeng by the neck, and slammed him against the wall. His large, snow-white hand, with bulging veins, covered Jiufeng's neck. His red pupils were like a pool of blood moon: "Little Phoenix, we've only had a few days of peace, yet you ask such a question. Have I spoiled you too much, making you so arrogant that you've forgotten who I am?"
Jiufeng's neck was trapped, his back pressed against the cold wall, utterly powerless to resist. The pain in his back made his face pale, and the weight on his neck made it hard for him to breathe.
“Since you’ve forgotten, I don’t mind telling you again, one last time!” Shu Xubai laughed like a pervert. “I am a filthy Vampire, a Vampire rotten and filthy from the inside out. I have been immortal since the first day I became a Vampire.”
“Every day before I became a Vampire, I lived in darkness and filth. There was no sunshine in my world. After becoming a Vampire, I ate every meal alone.”
"My hands are for grabbing people, my mouth is for biting off people's necks. I'm only alive now thanks to the mountains of corpses and the sea of people, and half of that is thanks to Jiang Si."
"You're asking me to choose between you and Jiang Si now? Did I not tell you, or did I forget to tell you, that she's mine, her life is mine. Why are you comparing yourself to her?"
Jiufeng slowly raised her hand and placed it on Shu Xubai's hand. She did not remove his hand from her neck, but simply covered his hand with her own.
Shu Xubai's blood-red eyes flashed coldly, revealing undisguised anger and killing intent. His fierce appearance resembled that of a large, savage beast, as if he were about to pounce and bite off his prey's neck, killing him instantly.
Nine Phoenix Hands covered his hands and then remained still. Even with his neck under Nine Phoenix Hands, he didn't even try to twist his neck or struggle.
He looked at Shu Xubai and said slowly, "You don't need to be angry. I haven't forgotten that I am your food. And you don't need to worry. I am still searching for my dragon."
"On the way from Earth to the Abel Galaxy, you suddenly told me that after we picked up Jiang Si and the children and returned to Earth, you wanted to go out and play with me."
"You said that life is short, the universe is vast, and there are countless galaxies, so we should go and see them. Shu Xubai, from that moment on, did you already know that I, this food, wouldn't live much longer?"
