"Immortal Lord Qingyang, please spare my child's life for the sake of our old friendship! My dragon bones and demon beast elixirs are also excellent materials for refining a puppet body. If you promise to send my child to the Tushita Realm to find my Golden Dragon husband, I will sever my own heart meridian and offer my entire body to you, Immortal Lord, to refine the weapon!"
The man in white snorted contemptuously, still with that lazy tone:
"Little snake, it's been over four hundred years, why haven't you figured it out yet? If I wanted your demon elixir and dragon bones, I would have taken action when I trapped you. How could I have allowed you to survive until now? A snake cultivates for five hundred years to become a dragon, and a dragon cultivates for five hundred years to become a dragon. You're still one thunder tribulation away from becoming a true dragon. I want to make the best puppet body. With the auspicious bloodline of a true dragon, why would I need your dragon bones that still have demonic energy?"
The beautiful young woman slumped on the dragon throne, her face pale and pitiful. The man in white looked at her sorrowful and painful expression, and the glint in his eyes dimmed. He seemed to remember something, sighed, and advised in a slightly softened tone:
"Little snake, although the child in your belly is a true dragon, it only has bloodline but no cultivation. Even if I can see the light of day again, I can't take it to the upper realm. I believe you know this better than me! Your current cultivation has dropped to the early stage of foundation building. In a few years, even if I don't trap you, you won't be able to reach the Tushita realm. Your child is indeed a burden to you. No matter what you do, it can't escape death. A short pain is worse than a long one. Don't be stubborn!"
The young woman's face paled even further. Immortal Lord Qingyang was right. She had been pregnant and unable to transcend the tribulation, which had stranded her in the lower realm. She had originally planned to give birth and take the child with her, but the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was so scarce that the dragon fetus, lacking spiritual nourishment, developed incredibly slowly. Eventually, it even began to absorb the dragon's demon core, causing the Green Dragon's cultivation to plummet again and again, from the middle stage of the Core Formation stage to the early stages of the Foundation Establishment stage. If she fell to the Foundation Establishment stage, her ascension would be completely lost. However, all parents have the same feelings for their children. Even though she knew the dragon fetus would not survive and would be a burden, she couldn't bear to give her own flesh and blood to others for use as materials for refining.
Seeing the young woman caressing her bulging belly, head bowed in silence, Qingyang Immortal Lord shook his head, knowing that there was no hope today and he would have to wait until the first day of next month. At this moment, Qingyang Immortal Lord suddenly looked outside the hall, his face showing an extremely shocked expression, and muttered:
"How is this possible?"
Immortal Lord Qingyang then turned around and flew towards the corridor with a look of joy on his face, leaving the beautiful young woman sitting on the dragon throne in confusion:
Doesn’t this evil Taoist always say a few threatening words before leaving? What happened today?
Twenty minutes ago, the Jiuju faction and the Qilin faction arrived at the Niangniang Temple at the same time. They were divided into two groups in front of the temple gate, facing each other in a tense confrontation.
The leader of the Jiuju faction is Abe Kakuichi, who holds a slender samurai sword with a cold glow in his hand and has a ferocious look on his face. Opposite him is Captain Yin Zheluo of the Qilin faction and a group of Chinese Qilin warriors.
"Abe Kakuichi, your Jiuju sect has entered the country without reporting to the Chinese government. This has violated Article 47 of the Psychic Contract. Please come with us immediately, or the Qilin Special Forces will resort to force and kill you without mercy!"
"Hahahaha! Little kid, you're so arrogant! Just relying on a few of you, you think you can keep me here? That's just wishful thinking!"
Yin Zheluo hurled a white, super-hot fireball at Abe Kakuichi, only for it to be struck by Kakuichi's sword mid-air. Something strange happened: the fireball, struck by the blade, vanished with a whiz, seemingly absorbed rather than extinguished.
Yin Zheluo missed the first attack and released several high-temperature fireballs in succession, all of which were absorbed by Abe Kakuichi's strange samurai sword. At this time, the two gangs were also engaged in a melee and fought fiercely.
