Chapter 344 The Queen's Consort
Spouse, this was the first time Xu Chuchu heard such a strange self-proclaimed title.
Not husband, not even partner... but spouse.
Any animal with intelligence would not use such a primitive name.
She suddenly felt a warmth in her arms, and hurriedly took out the jade. She found that in addition to the two petals belonging to her and Xiao Yu, there was another petal that was glowing.
So this is the fourth person? The queen's consort?
Xu Chuchu put the jade away and turned to Jiji and said, "Jiji, please ask him to come in."
"Ah?" Gigi was stunned. Who did he let in? He didn't see anyone.
It was really creepy to see my senior sister and brother-in-law talking to the empty street at the door.
"Don't worry, senior sister is here." Xu Chuchu assured him.
Jiji naturally believed Xu Chuchu and said loudly: "Guest outside, please come in."
The man named Shu Yu stepped in after hearing the sound.
At the same time, other people also saw him, as if he appeared out of thin air, which made people marvel.
"Let's talk inside." Xu Chuchu said.
"OK."
Shu Yu is very polite and his every move is very appropriate, even making the big guys look sloppy.
Each of his steps was the same distance, and each of his arm swings had the same arc.
Xu Chuchu even secretly compared him with Xiao Yu and found that Xiao Yu's actions were not as serious as his, but he was more natural and easy-going.
Everyone returned to the room and sat down in silence.
Everyone huddled together tacitly, staying away from Shu Yu. Da Ju hid his body behind Xu Chuchu, only poking his cat head out from the crook of her arm.
It was Xu Chuchu who spoke first.
"So... dragons can transform into humans?" She picked the most meaningless words as her opening remark.
"Of course." Shu Yu replied, "As long as you have enough cultivation, you can transform into a human form, just like a demon."
Xu Chuchu asked again: "But you don't have any demonic energy, you are just like ordinary people. As long as you don't reveal it yourself, no physiognomist can see through it."
Shu Yu said: "This is because the dragon race is more advanced than ordinary monsters."
After saying this, he suddenly stood up and bowed to the human-shaped fox fairy and the cat-shaped big orange: "Please forgive my words."
The fox fairy blew his beard, and Daju was flattered and shouted, "It's okay, it's okay."
"So Shu Yu, why did you come to see me? How did you know I was here?" Xu Chuchu asked.
"The Queen ordered me to come here, and she told me the location," Shu Yu said. "If we gather five of us, we can unlock the secret, save the Red Dragon Clan, and also save the lifeline of the entire world line."
Xu Chuchu asked hurriedly: "Do you know what the secret is?"
Shu Yu also shook his head: "The secret can only be known after it is opened."
It seems that Shu Yu knows almost the same thing as the previous Sect Leader Feng. The only additional information is that they need to save the Red Dragon Clan and also save themselves.
Xu Chuchu thought about it and took out the dragon egg covered with cloth from behind.
"Since you are the Queen's consort, then this egg... is your child?"
The dragon egg is very important. If the jade had not been shining, she would not dare to expose the dragon egg to strangers.
"Ah! It's the queen's egg!" Shu Yu, who had been very elegant just now, suddenly became excited. She jumped up and rubbed her hands on her clothes for a long time before she carefully took the egg and gently held it in her arms like a child.
"So the queen entrusted her egg to you." Shu Yu said to Xu Chuchu, "This is her most precious thing. She must trust you very much."
"Hmm..." Xu Chuchu asked tentatively, "Since you are its father, wouldn't it be better for you to raise it?"
She was definitely not shirking her responsibilities or not wanting to raise eggs, but she genuinely felt that the dragons were more familiar with hatching eggs than she was, and her father was more suitable for the job.
She doesn't want to separate the father and son.
Shu Yu shook her head: "No, the Queen entrusted the egg to you, she must have her reasons, we must respect her."
"Besides..." He lowered his head and rubbed the egg gently, "I may not be its father."
Everyone's face froze.
Why do you love him so much even though he is not your biological child?
Xu Chuchu was even more frightened and wanted to snatch the egg back to prevent Shu Yu from doing anything to his wife's "illegitimate child" outside.
"Do you mean that the Queen has more than one spouse?" Xiao Yu was the first to react.
He remembered what Sect Leader Feng had said, that it was extremely difficult for dragons to conceive, and that male dragon kings often had many mates, and there would always be one who could lay eggs.
The queen can only rely on herself, so it is more difficult for her to have offspring.
Thinking about it from another perspective, the queen should also have many spouses.
"Of course, the queen has many spouses." Shu Yu suddenly became proud unconsciously, "But I am the most... "
The word "favored" was on the tip of his tongue, but he abruptly changed it to "the one she trusts the most."
"I can see that." Xu Chuchu nodded in agreement, "This time she chose you."
"That's right." Shu Yu stroked the dragon egg, his eyes full of tenderness. "Even though I don't know whose child this is, I will protect it well."
The fox fairy blew his beard and glared again: "If this happened in our fox clan, the egg would have been broken long ago. Raising cubs for others is just dreaming."
Xu Chuchu glared at the fox fairy fiercely. Now was the time when unity was needed. What if he came out to stir up trouble and angered Shu Yu and they started a fight?
But Shu Yu remained calm and composed, saying, "It's normal for different races to behave differently. After all, the dragon race is superior to the fox race."
"In our tribe, becoming the queen's consort is an extremely honorable thing." A glint flashed in Shu Yu's eyes. "I still can't forget the day she chose me. She picked me out of so many male dragons. I wasn't the biggest or the most powerful, but she still chose me... I swear to cherish and be loyal to her forever."
The master and Daju were listening with great interest, while the fox fairy kept retching.
Xu Chuchu and Xiao Yu had seen Hong Long before, and had felt the affinity and admiration that came with being close to her, so it wasn't surprising to hear Shu Yu say that.
Xu Chuchu couldn't explain the feeling, but if she was a dragon, and a male at that, she would definitely be proud to be the queen's consort.
In this way, Shu Yu successfully joined their team to decipher the egg farming method.
Apart from Master Feng who is not present, there is still one person missing.
When asked if Shu Yu knew who this person was, he couldn't answer, and only said that there probably wouldn't be any other dragons.
"The Queen said that only humans can unlock this secret," he said.
Then it can be basically confirmed that the remaining person is someone Xu Chuchu knows.
Who else?
It seems like there is really only one person left.
