Chapter 98 Immortality "I'm sorry... this is the first time I've ever liked someone."...
“I see…” the Dragon Ancestor murmured, “So you came to this point in time to continue the flame of the dying Vidyadhara clan?”
Realizing his slip of the tongue, He corrected himself, saying, "I'm sorry, my concept of time is a little different from yours. From my perspective, this civilization is at the point where it would perish if it just took a nap."
He Yuan didn't care. "Well, the current Immortal Ship Alliance doesn't regard the permanent continuation of the Ming clan as greed for immortality. Moreover, if the Ming clan continues to multiply in the future... it will cause ethical problems."
Dragon Ancestor: "Hmm... I think I understand."
Although He didn't quite understand.
Reproduction is a natural instinct, so why suppress it?
As for blood relations, there's nothing to worry about, as long as we know we're all family.
He Yuan understood His meaning and asked doubtfully, "Doesn't the current Vidyadhara have this problem? Can you accept a Vidyadhara falling in love with... his own grandson or son after his rebirth?"
In the view of the enlightened one, rebirth is a new life, in which all previous relationships are severed.
The Dragon Ancestor looked at him in confusion: "Is it not allowed?"
In the realm of Vidyadhara, even if close relatives marry, the tragedies that occur in humans will not happen; naturally, people can be together if they like each other.
He said, “If I fall, and if you are my wife, I will instruct my children to take care of you. It is your freedom to be with whomever you want, and with as many people as you want.”
He Yuan immediately shook her head, "No, no, no, we can just be partners in name only."
Okay, even though the white-haired, red-eyed version is not a collectible, He Yuan would rather refuse it when she thinks about the future.
Who wants to have dozens of partners at once? Would they even want to live?
The Dragon Ancestor looked somewhat disappointed.
Crane Kite did not understand His loss.
Being instantly smitten or infatuated by a minor NPC is a natural consequence of having high charm and good looks.
Characters like Jing Yuan Dan Feng, or even the Dragon Ancestor, who have a lot of story development, generally require some interaction or gifts before triggering the connection when the heart is moved.
Love at first sight is unlikely.
But the Dragon Ancestor's expression was far too obvious.
His disappointment and delight were written all over his face, just like the little moon he encountered on the road.
He Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Why do you want to confirm this identity with me?"
He is a traveler from another timeline, and it is impossible for him to stay here. Being with him would be futile.
Moreover… as a star god, He shouldn’t have such an expression.
He Yuan thought that the most naive star god he had ever seen was Lan, but the star god in front of him was even simpler and easier to understand than Lan.
The Dragon Ancestor's eyelashes fluttered, and he whispered, "You look delicious."
Food is essential for a living organism's basic survival and is also the source of happiness for many people.
As the progenitor of dragons, He no longer worries about food and clothing, nor does He need to eat to sustain His life. He has lost the desire to eat, and He can only feel a little pleasure when He watches His own bloodline eat.
But from the very first second this human stepped into the sea, He instinctively sensed—
It's delicious.
He wanted to eat him.
It was an impulse, but also an extraordinary fondness that followed.
Both the Dragon Lord and the Vidyadhara are of the Dragon Ancestor's bloodline. He saw everything about this person through the eyes of the Moon Drinker.
Now, her eyes are cunning and lively, and her heart is unknowingly trapped.
Later... He despicably used the Heartguard to see the remaining, different timelines of the future.
Their story includes a three-day separation, a hundred-year companionship, and even after death, their tireless efforts to bring the unrelated Wisdom Egg out of the prison and give it a new world.
Yin Yue liked him, and so did the Dragon Ancestor.
Upon first meeting the young man, the mere presence he exuded stirred the Dragon Ancestor.
This restlessness even caused Him to interrupt the process of He Yuan and Yin Yue exchanging names, and directly bring the person in front of Him.
He was undoubtedly beautiful. The Dragon Ancestor had seen too much beauty, but the one before him was the most beautiful in his heart.
However, beauty is merely a minor advantage of He Yuan.
The Dragon Ancestor looked at the Crane and the Kite with a mixture of greed and restraint, trying not to let his thoughts be seen through.
Perhaps he would prefer someone simpler?
As He Yuan followed in His footsteps, the sound of her little leather boots echoed, and her wet clothes clung tightly to her skin, revealing her slender and alluring curves.
To facilitate underwater movement, he didn't wear any more flowing clothes, just a simple, tight-fitting outfit with a thin black belt that accentuated his waist, swaying gently as he walked quickly.
The Dragon Ancestor thought that this was something He could have done anyway.
He can hold him tightly by the waist, just as He sees, and keep him firmly on His body, never to be separated.
But He only said, "I'm sorry... this is the first time I've had someone I like."
Please don't take what I just said to heart.
He Yuan looked puzzled: "First time?"
“Well,” the Dragon Ancestor explained, “the Vidyadharas are my offspring, my bloodline, but they were not conceived by me.”
"They... I created them."
To put it simply: I am an older, single, virgin father with many children, and I hope you will give me a second glance.
What a strange combination!
He Yuan suspected that this setting was created specifically to cause chaos.
However, considering the future breeding situation... He Yuan felt that it was still acceptable.
The Star God Taizyuros reproduces countless copies of himself to accompany him; every insect is a replica of Him.
Compared to the Dragon Ancestor, who shares blood but is a completely different individual, He Yuan is more accepting of the Dragon Ancestor's model.
...Wait, how did it become acceptable?
Crane Kite, wake up!
Even if white hair and red eyes are everyone's preferred feature, even if the Dragon Ancestor is handsome, even if the Dragon Ancestor seems naive and innocent, even if...
I'm speechless. All the advantages are there. Where are the disadvantages?
The downside is that the clothes are too conservative?
He Yuan had never seen anyone wearing a long robe with wide sleeves underwater.
However, thanks to the movement of the water, the texture of this clothing is significantly enhanced.
When He Yuan followed behind the Dragon Ancestor and saw His long sleeves and hem, she didn't even blink.
This black and red outfit seemed to sway with the Dragon Ancestor himself, just like the underwater dragons that He Yuan had imagined, looking majestic and inviolable.
The clothes were thick, but they didn't feel cumbersome at all. Even after entering the waterless space, they didn't feel sticky to my body.
Looking at myself, my clothes were completely soaked.
He Yuan thought for a moment, "Whether they are your children or not, I don't care."
"...I see."
The Dragon Ancestor asked him, "So, you came here this time just to find a way to continue the practice of Vidyadhara?"
The pendant on Heyuan's earlobe swayed a few times.
"Yeah, but I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."
They met the Dragon Ancestor so easily and even struck up a conversation.
He Yuan still feels like she's dreaming.
The Dragon Ancestor asked, "Then what can you do to repay me?"
His eyes were no longer as pure as before, but held a hint of gloom.
Unseen by He Yuan, strands of black hair were turning white at the ends of her hair.
Everything here is under the control of the Dragon Ancestor. If He wants to keep someone, isn't that an easy thing?
Unaware of what was happening, He Yuan said, "If you need me to do the teaching, then is this alright?"
"If that doesn't work, you can make another request, and I'll try my best to accommodate it."
The Dragon Ancestor looked at him and said, word by word, "I want to be your true husband and wife."
He Yuan was speechless for a moment.
"Nothing here matters to you, and no one else will know about it, right?"
That's not the problem!
He Yuan thought to herself: Is your love-obsessed brain all passed down from generation to generation? How come you are all like this!
Or rather, they have their own internal judgment, believing that this is something that can be done and is worthwhile.
Just like now, the ancient immortal star god wants to exchange a treasure that millions of people crave for a doomed marriage.
Crane and Kite don't like it.
It wasn't that he disliked the Dragon Ancestor, but rather that he disliked this... coercive and forceful way of doing things.
If the game is meant to bring him joy, then everything that follows or originates from it should be his voluntary action.
He Yuan has a slight affection for Long Zu, but they haven't reached the level of being "real husband and wife".
He's not a stamp collector, otherwise he would have had a relationship with Slugum and Igor by now.
The Dragon Ancestor waited quietly for Crane Kite's reply.
Perhaps, as He Yuan suggested, He should recognize reality, settle things evenly, and then leave to forget each other.
But... why should I?
If you like something, you should seize it and fight for it; this is the instinct that is ingrained in the bones of dragons and enlightened beings.
It's already quite remarkable that He was able to suppress His instincts and refrain from stealing.
One has to admire their perseverance.
His gaze did not blatantly scrutinize the pensive youth.
He Yuan's lips are beautiful, with a full cupid's bow on her upper lip, looking like a plump and juicy cherry used as a garnish on a plate.
Not only the lips, but every line is just right, making it unforgettable and captivating.
His clothes wouldn't dry at all in the damp environment, and the decorations on his chest were completely exposed, allowing the Dragon Ancestor to see them clearly.
You're such a disappointment, Yin Yue.
A hundred years of companionship is about sharing; three days of resolute separation is just a fleeting embrace, used as a pillow by someone else.
The current Yinyue isn't much better.
He's such a grown man, yet so childish; he almost drove people away in anger.
“Lord Dragon Ancestor? I’ve been thinking about it,” He Yuan said earnestly, “Could you please change your request to—that we can develop a marital relationship?”
“I’ve only known you for an hour, and I can’t accept developing a deeper relationship with someone I’ve only known for such a short time.”
“When I’m out in the world, my time is fixed. I wonder if you would be willing to play a game with me called ‘marriage first, love later’?”
The Dragon Ancestor nodded, his pure white hair gently tilting to the side of the table, without a trace of dark color.
"Okay, I'm willing."
*
On that day, all the Vidyadharas knew that their [Father], the Dragon Ancestor, was going to marry a [Mother].
The rest of the Wisdom Clan were noisily discussing the background of this new "Mother," but only Yin Yue, who had not yet exchanged her name, stood there stunned for a long time after learning the "Mother's" name.
That was the person who took his protective unicorn.
She took his protective unicorn, she should be his wife, how could she become someone else's wife!
Yin Yue, feeling very dissatisfied, went to the palace and arrived at the room where He Yuan was temporarily staying.
To make life easier for young people, the space was specially designed to be waterless, with rows of shimmering clothes laid out in front of He Yuan, waiting for him to choose.
The Dragon Ancestor's wife... Shouldn't they call her "Mother"?
But Mother didn't like them calling her that, so they could only call her "Madam".
"Madam, is there any clothing you like among these?" the servant asked cheerfully. "Father has invited you to watch the fireworks at sea, so please get dressed up quickly."
Yin Yue arrived at this moment. Upon hearing the servant's words, he asked, "Why are you dressed up?"
This was perhaps the first time he had defied his father's authority, but he couldn't care less about that now.
If he hesitates any longer, he will truly have no hope.
Ignoring the presence of servants, Yin Yue stared intently at He Yuan and asked, word by word, "Why did you marry Father? What He can give you, I can give you too!"
"...Even if I don't have it now, I will work hard to get it in the future!"
The little dragon looked as if he had fought his way through, his speech was incoherent and his meaning was confused, and his chubby cheeks were flushed.
He Yuan asked in confusion, "Why can't I get married? Besides, I need to correct your wording. My marriage to the Dragon Ancestor is a marriage, not a marriage ceremony."
Yin Yue looked extremely aggrieved, tears welling up in her eyes. "You took my Heart-Protecting Qilin, how can you be with someone else!"
Shouldn't you have waited for me?
He Yuan chuckled: "But in another world, I also took Yin Yuejun's scales and got together with someone else."
"Is this Heart-Protecting Qilin some kind of chastity lock? Since I can't be with anyone else if I take it, I might as well return it."
As He Yuan spoke, she tossed the scales she carried with her into the depths of her backpack and didn't take them out again.
The little dragon king panicked when he couldn't sense the aura of the Heart-Protecting Qilin. "No...you can't give it back!"
He suddenly pounced on He Yuan. Before anyone could react, they tore open the young man's clothes and searched everywhere for the whereabouts of the Heart-Protecting Qilin.
"Where...where is it?" he muttered to himself as he searched, not even noticing the Dragon Ancestor enter.
He Yuan lifted Yin Yue by the back of her neck and placed her on a cushion to the side.
If we don't take action soon, the Dragon Ancestor will be the one to drag him away.
He Yuan glanced at the Dragon Ancestor's expression and said to Yin Yue in a righteous tone, "I don't like children like you. I prefer someone more mature."
Yin Yue glanced at her own size and face, clenched her fists, and said, "So what if I grow up! You just wait!"
He walked away, turning back every few steps.
The Dragon Ancestor finally broke free from his silent statue and asked, "You prefer someone more mature?"
He Yuan nodded casually, "Yeah, I don't really like childish things."
"However—if her personality suits my taste, I'd be willing to give it a try."
He remembered that Qiong, seven hundred years later, was a child who was "said to be less than two years old," but he was good-looking and looked dull, yet he could always come up with some unexpected tricks.
He Yuan felt very happy to be with Qiong, and since Qiong didn't have that obvious childishness, he made a little intimate gesture.
If we meet again in seven hundred years...
He Yuan is looking forward to meeting Qiong again.
This time, they should be able to go on a date, right?
Seeing that He Yuan was lost in thought, the Dragon Ancestor recalled the fragmented memories he had witnessed.
The gray-haired young man led Crane and Kite on an escape, traveling around and even affectionately kissing each other on the cheek, earning a promise of a date.
Even if that promise was not kept.
But they had only known each other for a few hours.
Why myself...
Why can't he do that? He Yuan tried to refute him by saying they hadn't known each other long!
The Dragon Ancestor was frustrated, but he didn't show it on his face.
However, the turbulence on the seabed changed with his mood, and the waves rose from the surface of the sea near the dwelling place of the enlightened one, which was observed by people who stopped far away.
Am I not to your liking?
The Dragon Ancestor bent down and looked at the Crane Kite, his eyes clear and bright.
He Yuan slightly avoided his gaze, "Well... not really."
The main reason is that although the Dragon Ancestor is old, he looks like an obedient baby, which always makes He Yuan wonder if he is committing a crime.
"Because your eyes look so pure, I always have this feeling that I can seduce you."
It's like inducing people to commit crimes.
"I see..."
The Dragon Ancestor turned around, and after doing something, he appeared mature and reliable, both in terms of his physique and everything else.
"What about this? Will it feel bad?"
He Yuan stroked his pure black hair, "If only it were still white."
White hair, a favorite of his that he will never tire of.
The Dragon Ancestor changed as instructed.
The white-haired, red-eyed man had a restrained yet surging lust in his eyes, and when he looked at He Yuan, it was as if he wanted to burn him along with him.
Crane Kite avoided the overly intense gaze.
One second it feels pure, the next it feels aggressive and unbearable.
The servants had already left.
Long Zu found a pure red dress in the wardrobe and came to He Yuan's side.
"Wear this, and I'll take you to see the fireworks, okay?"
The memoir said to use a gentle tone, to be as sincere as possible, and not to sound too forceful.
The Dragon Ancestor, high and mighty, spoke in an awkward tone, which was truly... indescribable.
Fearing that He might cause more trouble, He Yuan barely glanced at the clothes before agreeing.
The Dragon Ancestor busied himself around him, helping him take off his clothes, comb his hair, and helping him put on his clothes step by step, not even sparing his inner lining.
He had his reasons.
"How can we deepen our relationship if we don't spend more time together?"
He Yuan thought to herself, "This is truly a failed decision."
To get what he wanted, he had to accept intimate gestures, completely losing the feeling of things falling into place naturally.
But he was helpless.
The more you resist, the less likely you are to develop.
Then let's follow our hearts.
He Yuan refused the Dragon Ancestor's offer to help him put on the inner lining and went behind the screen to put it on himself.
The close line of sight was blocked by the screen.
But he forgot that this palace was the residence of the Dragon Ancestor, and it was created by the Dragon Ancestor.
Every blade of grass, every tree, every brick, and every tile here can serve as his eyes and ears.
Without a doubt.
The young man had fair skin and a delicate frame, with his skin and flesh fitting perfectly against the fabric. Only his waist, chest, and buttocks had a little soft flesh. When he moved, his buttocks would tremble and sway. When the fabric was tied around his waist, his buttocks would stick tightly to it, looking as if they were about to pop out at any moment.
Her two legs were white and straight, and I wished I could hold them in my hands and play with them every day.
It would be best to wear socks and add a few different leg rings.
A sudden gust of sea breeze blew in, making He Yuan tremble. Her toes curled up to grip the ground, and the pants she had only half-dressed fell off as she held onto the screen.
The screen was too weak to support a person's weight and tipped over to the other side.
A black boot appeared in front of He Yuan.
He looked up and saw the Dragon Ancestor looking at him with a puzzled expression.
It's as if they're asking, "Why can't you even put on your clothes properly?"
He Yuan covered her face in shame, trying to calm herself down, and stood up while leaning against the screen.
The posture of getting up inevitably causes the buttocks to stick out.
Wrapped only in a piece of cloth, it's like a delicious fruit encased in a delicate skin; just one bite and the juice inside will burst out, spraying all over your face.
Of the three people so far, all have enjoyed this service.
They all commented that it was very soft, chewy, and juicy, and they would like to try it again next time.
The Dragon Ancestor also wanted to try it.
Fruit that has been nurtured and matured by many people must be delicious, sweet, and unforgettable.
He Yuan felt the gaze from above, and an uncontrollable wind blew, causing his waist to slump.
It resembles a high-arched bridge, constantly being sculpted into a shape close to a pyramid, and almost turning into a tower.
Only the tip remains rounded.
He Yuan lay on her side, covering her face, and whispered, "Could you go out first?"
With such a prominent gaze on him, how could he possibly change his clothes?
The Dragon Ancestor chuckled softly, then turned and left.
His robes spun around, the excessive length first covering the upper body and part of the lower body of the crane and kite, and then slowly rising upwards with the movement.
He Yuan felt like a gift, being unveiled and unpacked little by little.
This made him very uncomfortable.
That gaze followed him relentlessly, and did not dissipate even after the Dragon Ancestor left.
Who would dare to be so bold in the Dragon Ancestor's palace?
Aside from the Dragon Ancestor himself, there is probably no one else.
So, just as the hem of her garment was about to leave, Crane Kite grabbed her.
"I'll only say it once: take your eyes off me."
He has the right to exit this instance at any time, and no one can make him uncomfortable.
If so, then leave.
The Dragon Ancestor paused, moved his fingers, and left only the most concealed perspective.
Get closer and you can observe the details.
It can't compare to before, but it's still pretty good that it was preserved.
At least He observed up close the small mole on the youth's waist and the red mole on his thigh, and also figured out where to wear the leg ring.
It's... somewhere near the red mole...
He thought with pleasure, waiting for the young man to call him in.
He Yuan had already put on her pants and was combing her overly long hair.
During the years that Jingyuan has been supporting her, Heyuan has hardly taken care of her hair, leaving it all to Jingyuan. Now it has reached her ankles and is very difficult to comb.
Long Zu waited a few minutes before knocking on the door, "Ah Yuan... do you need my help?"
He Yuan did need someone to help him with his hair, so he let Long Zu in.
As instructed, the Dragon Ancestor combed his hair and then adorned it with the most precious jewels in the palace, making the already handsome young man radiant and dazzling.
He could understand why Yin Yue liked to dress up as a crane and a kite.
He also likes a young man who can handle all kinds of styles.
Dressing up He Yuan always yields unexpected results; no matter what clothes he wears, they always look exceptionally elegant on him.
If He Yuan's stylist were here, they would definitely have a lot in common.
When shooting his perfume commercial, there were so many ways to alter the clothes and shoot the photos, it was never too much. No matter the angle or the lighting, He Yuan always managed to imbue the clothes with a special meaning.
That's why those ads are always so long.
Even after careful selection, it still doesn't feel like enough.
