Long Yi did not answer immediately, but remained silent for a long time.
Lin Qianqian and the others did not urge him, giving him ample time to slowly think about how to answer.
"Most of the dragons who know about the Dragon God's injury are here. I don't know much about that guest either. He's no ordinary person; he possesses extraordinary abilities. No dragon knows where he comes from, though the Dragon God might know a little. But one thing is certain: he's not from this world."
Lin Qianqian already had some guesses about the person's identity and background, but she still needed to meet him to confirm certain things.
However, Long Yi's blind box game wasn't over yet, as the red-haired dragonman opened another box.
This box is smaller, and it's full of herbs.
Lin Qianqian didn't recognize him, so Jiang Shuran, who was a doctor, got up and went to check on him.
She picked up a blade of grass; it was green with reddish tinges and exuded a unique fragrance.
"This is Dragon's Breath Grass, which grows on dragon tombs."
"Oh, grass on the grave."
Lin Qianqian interrupted, spoiling the mood, which stunned Long Yi, leaving him unsure whether he should continue with the introduction.
"And then, what's the use of this grass?"
As a doctor, Jiang Shuran is most concerned with the efficacy of herbs; where they grow is not very important.
"It is a divine medicine for dragons, capable of curing all their ailments. It has the same effect on beastmen and sea creatures."
"But it won't work on the Dragon God; it won't heal his injuries, right?"
"Yes, it's no use. It's no use to the Dragon God or that guest."
Actually, this question is somewhat redundant. If it were useful, those two would have already recovered from their injuries.
Then Long Yi pointed to the grass in another box and said, "This is ambergris, which is eaten by races other than dragons to enhance their physique."
"Excuse me, but isn't dragon's saliva the spittle of a dragon?" This time, it wasn't Lin Qianqian who said the spoilsport, but Wen Mingyue.
Oh no, she's corrupted Wen Mingyue!
But the dragons are really something else; they either send grass to a grave or drool to a flower.
Are the dragons in this world really that poor? They can't even afford anything decent.
Long Yi was embarrassed again and could only offer a dry explanation: "The dragon's saliva flower only needs to be watered with dragon's saliva occasionally."
"It really is just drooling."
Unable to respond to that, Long Yi could only pretend not to hear and continue introducing other things.
Lin Qianqian didn't pay much attention to the contents of the other boxes; they were nothing more than herbs and ores from the Beastman Continent.
Some things also exist on Earth, but they grow on the Beast World continent, and are all enlarged and enhanced versions.
There were some things that didn't exist on Earth, but Lin Qianqian accepted them all, regardless of whether she knew them or not.
After looking at all the dragon-related items, Lin Qianqian said to Long Yi, "Have your people go shopping with Luo Zexuan and Wen Mingyue. Tell them what you want."
Then he instructed Chu Zhou and Jiang Shuran: "You two go and take stock of the things the dragon clan brought, sort them, so that Lin Lanlan can receive them into her space."
She then sent a telepathic message to Zhang Laodao, the only one who hadn't entered the meeting room, instructing him to keep an eye on the door and notify her immediately if any sea creatures approached.
Almost everyone had left, leaving only Lin Qianqian, Yun Ze, Long Yi, and Long Chen in the meeting room. Even Long Yan had gone shopping with them.
"I sent everyone away because I have something to say to you."
Lin Qianqian spoke very directly; she wasn't good at beating around the bush, nor did she want to waste time and effort on roundabout hints.
There's no need, and there's no time to do that. The best and most appropriate thing to do right now is to speak frankly!
Long Yi nodded; he had guessed it.
However, Lin Qianqian did not speak immediately, but first glanced at Long Chen.
"It's alright, there's nothing that Long Chen can't know."
Long Yi seemed to trust Long Chen very much.
Since that's the case, Lin Qianqian no longer had any reservations.
"I should be able to heal the Dragon God's injuries. When shall we go to see the Dragon God? As for that guest's injuries, we'll only know after we see him."
She wasn't talking nonsense; the Dragon God's wound wouldn't heal, it just meant the black substance on the wound couldn't be completely removed.
But she can! The power she wields is the nemesis of those dark forces!
After Lin Qianqian said those words, Long Yi opposite her burst into a big laugh. This laugh was no longer the kind of forced, serious laugh, but a laugh full of childlike innocence.
"The Beast God didn't lie to me after all. You've come to save us. Now you can go see the Dragon God!" He said, and then stood up.
“Let’s go then!” Lin Qianqian agreed.
Although she said that, she didn't move her feet.
If she wasn't mistaken, they would get to experience the joy of walking through a spatial portal this time.
Sure enough, Long Yi turned and gave Long Chen a wink.
Long Chen stretched out his hands, and a few seconds later a spatial door nearly two meters high appeared.
There were too many people before, so we didn't observe the portal properly.
Now I finally have the time and opportunity to take a good look at this portal.
The door frame was about three fingers wide, and it was made of some unknown material, neither gold nor jade, with occasional flashes of silver on it.
The room was brightly lit inside, making it impossible to see what was happening there.
Lin Qianqian sent a message to Luo Zexuan, explaining her and Yun Ze's whereabouts.
Long Yi also left a message for Long Yan and the others using a special method.
After everything was arranged, Long Yi stepped into the door first, followed closely by Yun Ze and Lin Qianqian, and finally Long Chen held the door frame to maintain the space door.
How long is the passage inside the portal? How long will it take to walk through it? What's on the other side? Lin Qianqian soon found out.
The passage inside the portal wasn't long; it was just a step away. In less than three seconds, they arrived at their destination, Dragon Island, where they were greeted by dragons filling the sky and the ground.
Dragons of all kinds, some with wings and some without.
The one without wings is just an enlarged version of a lizard. It looks rather ugly, with sharper teeth, more menacing scales, and a clumsy appearance.
Sigh! Lin Qianqian doesn't like ugly things, so she only glanced at them a few times before turning her gaze away.
Those large lizards with extra wings looked much more sophisticated, instantly becoming a different species, barely managing to bury the name "dragon".
Seeing that Lin Qianqian was interested in their dragon race, Long Yi quickly introduced, "Our dragon race is divided into: winged dragons and earth dragons. Winged dragons can spread their wings and soar through the sky, and are the superior dragons. Earth dragons have no wings and cannot fly, and are the inferior dragons."
Indeed, in every dimension and world, there exists a hierarchy. All living beings are categorized by status and worth, and every life has a price!
"Before the Great Cataclysm, all dragons, whether pterosaurs or earth dragons, possessed special abilities, naturally able to control wind, fire, and lightning. However, after the Great Cataclysm, eight or nine out of ten born earth dragons were unable to awaken their special abilities. The same was true for pterosaurs, although the proportion was lower, but still more than half. Moreover..."
At this point, Long Yi's tone suddenly became much sadder.
"Moreover, the birth rate of dragons has been declining year after year, and even if many cubs are born, they cannot survive."
The root cause was something Lin Qianqian could guess without Long Yi having to explain it.
