Cangying's breath hitched, and he immediately turned around, rushing out with somewhat unsteady steps. He reached the door, opened it, and ran out.
Quanjian happened to come out and saw this, so he hurriedly called out, "High Priest, where are you going?"
Cangying didn't even turn her head, her voice icy: "Don't worry about where I'm going, go back to your room!"
Quanjian said "oh" and obediently turned around to go back to her room. But as she stepped inside, she felt something was wrong. The high priest's expression was off. Why was she being so obedient?
Quanjian appeared to have gone back to his room, but he was actually like a thief, his body inside the room while his head peeked out.
This was quite alarming, as they saw their high priest quickly go to the door of Yanliu's room and knock on it.
With gossip gleaming in her eyes, Quanjian immediately sent a message to Fu Huan next door: "Ugly freak, ugly freak, come out quickly, come out quickly, my High Priest is about to fight with the beautiful Yanliu!"
Fu Huan, who was at the forefront of the gossip, appeared at the door within five seconds, craning his neck to look outside, his expression saying, "They're fighting, they're fighting, where are they, where are they?"
Jiang Si watched the little green dragon egg roll away, then picked up her small crossbody bag. This bag was woven from willow branches, so densely that even an ordinary person couldn't tear it. Now the bag had a hole in it, and the dragon egg had fallen out. Hmm, that's interesting!
After Jiang Si finished looking at the small bag, she put it down. The willow branches automatically wrapped around the hole in the bag and sewed it up.
Jiang Si stared at the small green dragon egg. The ground where she was standing was flat. Even if an extremely hard egg fell to the ground and could roll, it couldn't roll more than a meter away.
So this egg is alive, not dead. The reason why people can't detect it and can't penetrate it with their spiritual power is because the egg itself is creating this problem.
Jiang Si lifted her foot to chase the still-rolling egg. As if sensing her pursuit, the egg rolled even faster than before.
Jiang Si narrowed her eyes, stopped walking, flicked a branch of the willow branch, wrapped it around the egg, and pulled it into her hand. The egg, which had rolled away, landed in her hand.
The fist-sized egg in her hand was as cold as jade, without any warmth. On its blue shell were some regular dark patterns, which were not visible unless you looked closely.
Jiang Si tapped the eggshell with her hand: "Second-born egg, you wouldn't happen to be Jiang Egg 2.0, would you? It didn't hatch before because it was lazy, it didn't want to inherit the throne!"
The green egg remained quiet, showing no sign of its previous tendency to leave.
Seeing the egg pretending to be dead, Jiang Si threatened, "Don't play dead with me! I can handle your father, let alone you!"
The green egg remained silent, offering no response.
Jiang Si sighed and said, "You're so special, so aloof, so great. You can stay in my little bag. I'll deal with you slowly after I find Little Phoenix."
After she finished speaking, she put the egg back into her small bag, returned the way she came, and came back to Shu Xubai and Jiu Feng's room. Just as before, she raised her hand to knock on the door, but then she heard a clatter. The egg fell to the ground again and rolled away, this time faster than before.
Ginger shreds: "..."
What's going on?
What's going on?
The dragon cub emitted a unique distress signal, and even though the signal was fleeting, Cangying, as an adult dragon, still managed to detect it.
He knocked on Yanliu's door, but no one answered after a long time. The two dangerous distress signals made him unable to sit idly by. He raised his foot and kicked Yanliu's door.
With a bang, the door to Yanliu's room was kicked open. He rushed in, but Yanliu was not in the room. There were only two willow swings swaying in the breeze.
Cangying didn't see anyone and assumed she was in the bathroom or bedroom, so she quickly walked towards them, but there was no one there either.
Cangying's heart was pounding with worry. She wasn't in the room. Where could she be?
Jiang Si, using the egg that was struggling to roll away, scratched her chin, looked at the tightly closed door, and then stepped after the rolling egg, blocking its path.
The egg stopped rolling and stopped rolling. Jiang Si squatted down and poked the green eggshell with her finger: "Second-born egg, do you hate the Great Witch Jiufeng of the Fourth Civilization Phoenix Clan?"
The green egg remained motionless, as if the egg that had just rolled was not it.
Jiang Si raised her hand, which was poking at the eggshell, and said, "If you hate him, then roll away. If you don't hate him, then come with me to see him. I'll put you in a small bag, and no one will find you. Even if someone does find you, I'll be there..."
Before Jiang Si could finish speaking, the egg in front of her started rolling, its meaning clear: she disliked Jiu Feng and didn't want to see him...
Jiang Si scooped up the egg, held it up to her eyes, looked at it, thought for a moment, and then understood. This egg belonged to Bo Jichen. According to Agares, Bo Jichen's inherited memories were the legacy of the dragons being persecuted by the Phoenix Clan.
Each dragon egg basically carries inherited memories. Jiang Dandan's memories are already inside the eggshell, so this second egg might not be premature; it could be a normal birth. After all, there are too many uncertainties in human-dragon hybrids.
This egg possesses the bloodline of Bo Jichen, which influences it. It harbors a deep-seated hatred for Jiufeng, finding him as filthy, bloody, and terrifying as its ancestors. It is understandable that it wants to stay away from him.
Jiang Si shook the egg: "Second Egg, I'm going to find Jiu Feng now. I'll give you two choices: either I give you to your uncle, or I throw you into my spatial dimension."
"If you choose to give it to your uncle, you can wave it around; if you choose to keep it in the space, don't..."
Before she could finish saying the word "move," the egg wobbled in her hand.
Alright, this egg is definitely Ginger Egg 2.0.
However, it's good that this egg likes its uncle, unlike Jiang Dandan who thinks that in the entire Troya Empire, only its father, itself, and she are family, and that its dog father and its dog uncle are just tools.
Fortunately, their floor was close to the cockpit. Jiang Si stuffed the green egg into her small bag, quickly found Agares, and slung the bag over his shoulder: "Your second nephew misses you and wants to be with you. You can carry it for a while."
Agareth was wearing a dark green shirt, trousers, and boots, and carrying a small blue bag for eggs on his back. He looked strange, comical, and even a little cute.
He didn't ask, but instead said, "It seems that the High Priest of the Deep Sea Mermaid Clan, Cangying, and Yanliu have had a misunderstanding!"
Jiang Silai turned to leave, but upon hearing his words, she stopped and stood rooted to the spot: "They had a misunderstanding. What misunderstanding happened? Haven't they already explained it all?"
Yanliu told her that this "tool person" was hard to deal with, so she stopped teasing him and playing with him. She told him that she didn't sleep with him and that she didn't have his child.
Now that such a big misunderstanding has been cleared up, it seems there might still be some misunderstanding. Could it be that the little golden dragon is unhappy and feels that Yanliu tricked him, and wants to fight her?
Jiang Si asked, "Their misunderstanding has long been cleared up, so what misunderstanding could there be?"
Agares turned the projection screen in front of him: "I don't know what the misunderstanding was, but just a few minutes ago, the High Priest of the Deep Sea Mermaid Clan kicked down Yanliu's door."
"Kicking the door triggered a system alarm. I was in the cockpit, so I checked the monitor and saw this. Take a look."
Jiang Si's gaze shifted to the projection screen, which showed that Cangying hurriedly came out of her room, arrived at Yanliu's door, and began to knock.
After knocking on the door for a long time without anyone answering, he kicked the door open and rushed inside. There were no security cameras inside, and he came out again less than a minute later.
The 360-degree surveillance footage showed that his expression when he came out and when he came in was not quite right. It didn't look like he was going to seek revenge or fight; it looked more like he was in a hurry.
Jiang Si pointed at the projected screen: "Agares, judging from this video, it doesn't seem like a misunderstanding, but rather like he's anxious on his own. So the question is, what is he anxious about?"
"No, no, Yanliu isn't in the room. Otherwise, how could he have kicked the door? Yanliu could have kicked him to death. So where is my Yanliu?"
Agares tapped the virtual keyboard, and the projected image changed: "Yanliu is here. The High Priest of the Deep Sea Merfolk hasn't found her yet, but he will soon."
Jiang Si looked closely and saw that her daughter Yan Liu had taken her two children to the plant area of the spaceship. She had changed her dress and was now wearing a t-shirt and trousers, with her hair tied in a high ponytail. She was playing with her two children on the grass.
What are we playing? Climb! Like a little kid, she followed Jiang Yinuo and shouted to Jiang Yihe to climb, to have a climbing contest, to see who could climb the farthest and the fastest. Their laughter could be heard even through the screen.
“The Merfolk High Priest is a 10-minute walk from her.” Agares pulled up a small screen and switched to another screen, where Cangying was running around anxiously: “Lord Cangying has already asked the spaceship’s main system, Blue Star, and knows that Yanliu is in the plant area. He is on his way to the plant area now.”
Jiang Si looked up from the video and at Agares: "Let's go take a look now."
“Okay!” Agares turned off the projection screen in front of him. “Driving there will be faster.”
The spaceship, capable of accommodating over a million people, is enormous, with floors like buildings and wide corridors that allow for the driving of specific vehicles.
A car is faster than two legs. Jiang Si sent a message to Jiu Feng from the car, asking him to meet her in the restaurant area. His room was a 45-minute walk from the restaurant.
She resolved her matter in 45 minutes, so he should be able to see her in time and wouldn't need to wait too long. However, just to be on the safe side, Jiang Si sent another message saying that she was preparing ingredients to cook lunch for everyone and asked him to go ahead and wait for her.
A few minutes later, Jiu Feng replied with a simple "okay".
Jiang Si turned off the personal terminal, and Agares sped up. Fortunately, there were only a few people in the huge spaceship, and the car was almost flying, so there was no need to worry about hitting anyone.
Cangying ran incredibly fast, unaware that two tails were following behind him. One tail, panting, asked the other, "Ugly monster, do you think my High Priest didn't notice us following him even though he was running so fast? Is there something wrong with the baby in Yanliu's belly?"
Fu Huan is capable of anything, from flying to swimming to running. Running is a piece of cake for him; he doesn't even get red in the face or out of breath, and he's incredibly fast.
But this little stinky fish had a way of saying something shocking that almost made him choke: "I told you to read more books, but you insisted on going to sea to catch fish. You don't even understand the most basic reproductive isolation between species!"
"What do you know!" Quanjian retorted without hesitation: "My High Priest is a dragon, not a fish. Legend has it that dragons can change their partners' constitutions, allowing them to reach the ideal state for reproduction!"
"Moreover, Yanliu is the most beautiful woman in the Abel Galaxy and the number one chief plant-based healer in the Abel Galaxy. Her physical qualities are unmatched by ordinary people."
"It's normal for her to have a one-night stand with our High Priest and get pregnant with our High Priest's dragon baby. What are you doing here, being envious and jealous, saying things like 'different species, reproductive isolation'?"
Fu Huan: "..."
This doesn't make sense.
Yanliu is not a love-struck fool.
She felt no love for the aloof, ethereal, and icy high priest of the deep-sea mermaid clan, only amusement, teasing, and pity... Yes, her gaze towards him carried a hint of pity, as if she knew something about him and felt sorry for him.
So what is it about Yanliu that she sympathizes with him about?
Is sympathizing with his destined one a form of hunting?
Or should we pity him for being a love-struck fool?
Fu Huan's passion for gossip was thus ignited. Curiosity, unable to find answers, led him to seek out the freshest juicy gossip from the scene.
"I'm telling you, you ugly freak!" Quanjian panted, glaring at Fu Huan with a sharp look in his eyes: "I'm definitely shipping my High Priest and Yanliu as a couple, they'll definitely be together."
Fu Huan rolled her eyes at her: "What do I care? I'm just a bystander. Just pretend I don't exist and don't talk to me."
Quanjian: "!!!!"
He got angry even though you gave him face.
They'll lure him back to Earth, drag him to the deep sea, slap him with their tails, and make him fertilizer for the ocean.
Jiang Yihe stared at the two people crawling on the ground, having a great time and even inviting her to play, with a cold little face and her two round, golden eyes wide open. She couldn't help but sigh.
The way she sighed in that little manner was quite convincing, like a little adult. With their persistent calling to her, Jiang Yihe reluctantly put on her princess dress and a little crown, and started crawling on the grass instead of sitting on it.
Seeing this, Yanliu sat down on the ground and clapped her hands, cheering: "Go, Xiao Yihe, Xiao Yinuo! Whoever comes in first place, I'll give them a big horse ride!"
Jiang Yihe: "..."
Okay, she's Mom's weapon, her partner; play with her whenever she wants.
Jiang Yinuo giggled as she got up.
The grass in the plant area is all carefully selected.
It's soft, delicate, and green, and it's sterilized daily, so there's no problem with children climbing and playing on it.
The two children climbed up quickly, and in no time they reached the top. They climbed up together, neither of them going first nor second, neither of them winning or losing.
There are no winners or losers, no order of precedence or demerit. What should we do?
Easy peasy. Yanliu walked over and treated them equally, stretching out her arms to put the two children on her back. She lay down on the ground and reminded them with a smile, "Little masters, sit tight, Aunt Yanliu will take you for a horse ride!"
The two children rode on her back, and giggled as she climbed up using her hands and feet. Their carefree laughter echoed throughout the plant area.
Cangying rushed to the plant area and heard laughter. Then he saw two children riding on Yanliu's back. His breathing became shallow. No wonder, no wonder the dragon cub in Yanliu's belly sent out a distress signal...
