Chapter 183 Dispute
Ye Luo followed Ling Qing to the back mountain and flew into the dense forest.
Suddenly Ling Qing stopped, her expression changed slightly, and she hesitated to move forward. The people behind her also looked anxious and uneasy.
"What's wrong with you guys?" Ye Luo turned back and asked.
Ling Qing looked troubled and said, "Young Master, His Excellency's aura is too strong; we simply cannot get close..."
"breath?"
Ye Luo closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, but it seemed that he could only smell the fragrance of cedar; he couldn't sense anything else.
Ling Qing looked at him with some surprise, "You didn't feel anything?"
"Alright, you guys stay here, I'll go find him." After saying that, Ye Luo flew off ahead, leaving the others looking worried.
"Lord Ling Qing, is it really alright for the young master to go?"
Upon hearing this, Ling Qing hesitated for a moment, "He should be alright... Since His Majesty cherishes him so much, even if it's driven by instinctive desires, he shouldn't harm him."
That's what they say...
However, dragons almost always lose their reason during mating season, and if they can't control their emotions, they might become even more out of control...
"Also... His Majesty specifically instructed us not to tell the young master. Won't we be punished later?"
"Forehead……"
Ling Qing immediately looked distressed, knelt down and hugged Ling Lie's leg, "Big brother, we're counting on you!"
"..."
Ling Lie looked at his silly sister and said helplessly, "You might as well ask the young master for help instead of begging me. His word is much more effective than mine."
Ling Qing slumped to the ground, deflated, and muttered resentfully, "That's true... Besides stealing my spiritual power in the womb and stealing my milk after I was born, what use are you anyway..."
"??"
Deep in the back mountains.
Following Jun Yi's scent, Ye Luo flew to a dark and secluded cave entrance. The cave entrance was covered with vines, making it almost impossible to find the way in.
He shoved the vines aside and crawled inside. The cave was not only dark and damp, but he could also hear the dripping sound of water.
"Jun Yi?"
Holding the illumination talisman in her hand, Ye Luo gradually walked deeper into the cave, and the scent became stronger the further she went.
After walking for about fifteen minutes, Ye Luo saw a light ahead and quickened her pace.
Just as he stepped out of the cave, he suddenly heard the sound of rushing water. He walked to the rocks and looked down, and sure enough, he saw Jun Yi.
He was now in the form of a half-beast, with horns growing from his head, his upper body covered in hard dragon scales, and his silver dragon tail constantly rippling the water in the cold pool.
Suddenly, Ye Luo was blinded by the light. He stared intently and saw several blood-stained silver dragon scales on the shore. He felt as if a knife had been ripped from his heart, and the pain was so intense that he could hardly breathe.
"Jun Yi!"
Jun Yi, who had been dozing off on the rock, suddenly opened his eyes and asked in surprise, "You... how did you get here?"
Ye Luo remained silent with a somber expression. She leaped down and landed beside him, staring at the dragon scales on the ground, tears gradually blurring her vision.
Jun Yi propped himself up in the pool, took his tightly clenched little hand, and said, "Luo'er, don't cry... it doesn't hurt."
"It doesn't hurt...?"
Tears streamed down Ye Luo's face, and anger flashed in his eyes. He resolutely took out a blade and, with a swift motion, sliced off a piece of flesh from his wrist, from which gushing crimson blood flowed out.
"Luo'er!" Jun Yi was shocked and felt a pang of heartache. "What are you doing?!"
"What's it to you?!"
Ye Luo's face turned deathly pale. He raised his hand to cut off another piece of flesh, but Jun Yi stopped him in time and pulled him into the water with a splash.
"Let me go!"
"Sweetie, stop it, I'll stop the bleeding!"
"It's none of your business!"
Ye Luo struggled violently, completely ignoring Jun Yi's words, "You said you weren't in pain?! Then I'm not in pain either!!"
Upon hearing this, Jun Yi's eyes reddened, and she gently kissed his brows and eyes, saying in a hoarse voice, "I was wrong... Luo'er, please don't be like this..."
Jun Yi's lingering kiss forced him to close his eyes, and he gradually began to sob and whimper, "Jun Yi...you bastard..."
"Yes, I'm a jerk. It's all my fault for making my darling angry."
Jun Yi comforted him and took out some spiritual medicine to heal his wounds. Instantly, the bleeding from the bloody wounds stopped and scabs began to form.
For a moment, neither of them spoke. Ye Luo nestled in his arms, trying to calm herself. Her fingertips touched the wound on his dragon tail, causing him to tremble slightly.
"Okay, mine will recover soon."
Jun Yi gently patted his back, patting him back to stop his hiccups. "Didn't you see it last time? It can grow new scales right away."
“That’s true…” Ye Luo didn’t look up, resting her head on his shoulder. “Then the flesh I cut off can heal, right?”
"..."
Junyi knew he was still angry, but for a moment he was tongue-tied and didn't know how to coax him.
After a long while, Ye Luo raised her head to look at him, a look of disappointment in her eyes, "Jun Yi, am I not worthy to stand by your side?"
"Nothing like that, don't overthink it."
"Is that so?" Ye Luo gave a bitter smile. "You think I haven't reached the Void Refinement stage yet, so you choose to harm yourself rather than touch me..."
Upon hearing this, Jun Yi was stunned for a moment, realizing that Ling Qing must have told him. A surge of anger welled up inside him. "Don't listen to her nonsense! No one can change my choice of Daoist partner. I just don't want to hurt you—"
"Enough!"
Ye Luo interrupted him, her face full of anger, "You're trying to say it's for my own good again, aren't you?"
"You always say that!"
"Don't I feel sorry for you when you're like this?"
Jun Yi was stunned for a moment when he saw him so excited for the first time, "Luo'er..."
