Chapter 144 You Can Stay with Me Temporarily
When Master Long came, Lu Qi was playing with her phone in an unhealthy position on the recliner, and Dan Feng was sitting next to her reading a book.
The Luofu Immortal Boat has undergone some changes over the past few hundred years, and there are even more books. There are still many books that he has not read.
There are quite a few books in Lu Qi's mansion. The books are brand new and have only been read a few times.
Only those novels and strange magazines that I read diligently have their covers curled up.
Although the Elder Chiming had the word "old" in their name, they were actually a group of young guys. However, these guys only looked young, but inside they were like old monsters and difficult to deal with.
The most annoying thing is that they tend to gather in groups.
Although the Dragon Lord is nominally the ruler of the Vajra Clan, due to their special reincarnation mechanism, the Dragon Lords have been raised under the guidance of Dragon Masters since childhood.
How they grow up depends three parts on nature and seven parts on shaping.
However, most Dragon Lords have a rebellious nature in their hearts, so to this day, Dragon Lords still retain some power.
At least not all members of the tribe listen to the dragon masters, and the dragon masters do not necessarily stand on the same camp.
The reasons behind this are complicated, and Lu Qi just thinks it's a mess.
After some discussion with Danfeng, he tried every possible means to get Danfeng's help.
The bastard listened to Lu Qi's nice words for a long time before he agreed.
He is indeed good at dealing with dragon masters, but what he is best at is turning over the chessboard and making the dragon masters unhappy.
Perhaps a maid in the mansion tipped off, or perhaps she overheard Lu Qi and Dan Feng's undisguised conversation. Numerous dragon masters had come to visit, and Dan Feng casually glanced around, confirming that half of them were present.
Raise an army to punish the culprit?
Or do you want to take advantage of the opportunity to seize power?
I'm afraid neither is true... Now that he has come back to life, according to the Dragon Masters' current extravagant hopes, he probably wants to force Lu Qi to tell him how she did it.
Although the Chiming Clan can be reincarnated, they rely on the power of immortal destiny contained in the Boyue Ancient Sea.
But once a member of the Vajra tribe dies outside, he will lose the chance of reincarnation.
Therefore, the number of the remaining members of the once powerful Chiming clan has decreased significantly to this day.
In fact, as long as the Chiming people are prohibited from joining the Cloud Cavalry Army, most of the casualties can be controlled.
But the Dragon Masters do not want to give up their rights in the Xianzhou Alliance, and force is one of their ways to control the upper echelons.
Hundreds of years ago, Dan Feng would still argue fiercely with the Vajra Dragon Masters, but he also unknowingly put on the shackles.
Is the continuation of the race really that important?
Why is it that today, the Vajra Dragon Masters are not focusing on the Vajra bloodline, but on strengthening the clan?
He investigated some documents that Lu Qi placed in his study and collected important information in an extremely short time.
The Vajra Dragon Masters controlled the Dan Ding Division, placed their own people in it, and cooperated with the previous Chief of Alchemy... They were even bold enough to use Lu Qi's body and let her reincarnate into the Vajra Clan.
The Chiming people in the Yunqi Army are often more powerful than ordinary immortal species, and are at the other extreme of the fox people.
Most fox people have the talent of flying, and the Chiming people are extremely powerful, making it easier for them to defeat a hundred enemies alone on the battlefield.
The decrease in the number of Chiming people means that they will make up a smaller part of the Yunqi Army.
With fewer numbers, their say also becomes less, so it is natural that the dragon masters would be anxious.
Unfortunately, after being resurrected this time, Dan Feng does not intend to deal with the future of the Chiming tribe with them anymore.
His life was given by Lu Qi, so she can do whatever she wants.
No one else's opinions matter.
Even Jing Yuan shouldn't restrict her from doing what she wants to do.
In the reception hall, Dan Feng sat at the top. He looked at the other dragon masters sitting there, and when he saw a few familiar faces, he couldn't help but sneer before attacking.
...It turns out that Dan Heng has been dreaming about his past life memories, and it must be more than just because of his transaction with Liuguang Yiting.
These dragon masters also played a role in this.
"You... are Danfeng?" The unknown dragon master asked first. The other dragon master was a stranger to both Danfeng and them. He looked at the other dragon master hesitantly, and when he saw the man nodded, he frowned.
"It's me."
"You are not..." Master Long chose his words carefully and couldn't say the rest for a long time.
"What on earth is going on here?" another Dragon Master asked solemnly, "Could it be that the secret technique has a delayed effect?"
Lu Qi slammed the book shut and suddenly appeared behind Master Long.
"What secret technique?" the white-haired, golden-eyed Dragon Lord girl asked with a smile, "Did you use it on me and Dan Heng?"
“…I don’t understand what you are talking about.”
"That's it," Lu Qi gestured, "the thing you persuaded Yunhua to do, the thing you worked together on for over thirty years ago, and then pushed her to take the blame."
"A secret technique that allows one to recall past lives—need I say more?"
Lu Qi is not mentally retarded, and she has come into contact with Dragon Master hundreds of years ago.
Those high-ranking guys were afraid that she, a disciple of a general, would marry Long Zun for power and thus control the Chiming clan.
They even went to her house one after another to warn her not to have such thoughts...
All strange letters were sent to the Shen Ce Mansion.
After reading one letter, Teng Xiao never opened it again. As soon as he got it, he asked Lu Qi to burn it.
Lu Qi opened a few of them out of curiosity. He didn't know what was going on until he read them. He rolled his eyes wildly.
What the hell, could the friendship between her and Dan Feng be what these people speculated about?
There are actually dragon masters who say that they can ask Long Zun to take her as his concubine - these people's brains should be cleansed in Boyue Ancient Sea.
Because of these letters, Lu Qi rarely remembered unimportant people, especially the Dragon Masters.
At this point, there are still a few dragon masters who look similar and behave the same as before.
As long as we connect with Jing Yuan's intelligence, we can easily get the corresponding answers.
The cooperation between the Vajra Dragon Masters and the Dan Ding Si is very deep, so deep that they can ask the former Si Ding to help perform secret techniques on the newly reincarnated Dan Heng to help him recall his past life memories.
It was obvious that this secret technique was not successful at the beginning. Dan Heng only had some intermittent memories of it. He could not remember those important people, and he did not inherit the memories that Long Zun should have.
But up to now, several of the Vajra Dragon Masters have been reincarnated as that person, and their secret techniques have been improved a lot, which has led them to have thoughts that they shouldn't have.
Just some old moths.
"Alright, alright, don't be nervous. I don't intend to do anything to you about these things... Well, actually, I don't want to care about what happens to the Chiming Clan."
Lu Qi returned to his seat and took a bite of the grapes brought to him by the maid.
Despite seeming to be at ease, the majesty of the Immortal Dragonborn weighed down heavily, forcing the dragon masters' heads down.
Dan Feng was the only one present who was not affected and continued to drink tea.
"I don't understand. A few hundred years isn't enough for you to live?" Lu Qi asked softly. "Why do you have to live for tens of thousands of years... So, do you think of yourselves as Star Gods?"
“…”
The people below were suppressed to the point where they couldn't make any sound, and their throats felt like they were stuck with a piece of iron.
"If you've lived enough, just reincarnate obediently. Don't dwell on things that shouldn't exist... Well, to be honest, I find it strange that you asked me to be the Dragon Lord, because I seem to have the best temper, don't I?"
"...How can your temper be improved?" Dan Feng couldn't help but ask.
"What? Am I not good enough? I didn't grab them and beat them or throw them against the wall." Lu Qi said in surprise.
"Don't look at me like that. I didn't even put them on the wall."
"Well... that's what's written in the books I've seen. If you have time, go look for it in the study. There's stuff like Yin Yuejun Dan Feng's rage..."
"Read less novels."
Lu Qi couldn't argue with him, so he could only glare at him and return to the topic dissatisfiedly.
"Don't interrupt me, I haven't finished yet."
"Anyway, I do have a bad temper. After all, I'm a massacre-monster. I've slain tens of thousands of these beasts on the battlefield, more than your years... I'm trying to control my temper now, not because I have a bad temper, but because I have more important things to do."
"What do you want to do now?"
"Dan Feng, do you have to trip me up when I'm pretending to be [beeping]? You really deserve a beating."
"But what you said makes me confused. You won't do anything dangerous behind my back, will you?"
Lu Qi's gaze shifted away for a brief moment, which was keenly caught by Dan Feng.
"……never mind."
"Ahem, don't mind my business." Lu Qi coughed and put away his dragon power. "If you have anything to say, just say it now. Don't be so pretentious."
The dragon masters who had been beaten were covered in sweat, and naturally did not dare to act rashly during the subsequent conversation.
It seems that Lu Qi will really beat them up and throw them into the sea. Although their lives will not be harmed, it will still be embarrassing.
More importantly, she got the information from nowhere and used it to hold something against them.
The current Dragon Lord has a close relationship with the Divine Strategy Palace, and it is unknown how much the general knows.
Now that the situation is unfavorable to them, they have to keep their heads down and behave themselves.
"Then this...Long Zun, what are you planning to do...?"
"Oh, Dan Feng is my deputy Dragon Lord," Lu Qi said casually, "As for why he's deputy, it's because I'm the boss—oh, don't hit me on the head!"
"Don't listen to her nonsense. The Chiming Clan doesn't need a deputy dragon master."
"Well then, I'll return the Dragon Lord's position to you."
“…That’s not what I meant.”
"But that's exactly what I meant," Lu Qi laughed again, revealing two sharp little fangs with a lovely smile. "Although you have always regarded me as the Dragon Lord of the Luofu Chiming Clan, you haven't held a ceremony to let me inherit the title until now... I guess you have some concerns."
Lu Qi tilted his head, revealing without hesitation the information he had hidden in his heart, perhaps even the Vajra Dragon Masters knew it.
"I am not the heir of Canglong, and I don't know the magic of dragon transformation," she said. "The inheritance I received in my dream was not from the previous Dragon Lord... It was not from Danfeng, nor from anyone else."
"My flesh and blood is a new life bestowed by the Star God."
Lu Qi's words immediately made the Vajra Masters explode. Although they had speculated about it before, none of them were as shocking as now.
What is the new life bestowed by the Star God?
In other words, Lu Qi's flesh and blood were not inherited. When she was resurrected from the dead, she only inherited the pair of golden vertical pupils.
Many dragon masters were left with nowhere to go because of Long Zun's severance of his inheritance, and in their grief and anger, they regarded her as their only lifeline.
They thought it was perfect at the time.
If Lu Qi, the current Dragon Lord, has never grown dragon horns or a dragon tail, then he will tell others that the inheritance of the Dragon Lord is still in Dan Feng's reincarnation.
They could use this as an excuse to capture Danheng and make him fulfill his obligations as a member of the Chiming clan.
If she had truly inherited Long Zun's legacy, it would have been easier to control her in her original child form.
The dragon masters started planning hundreds of years ago, and until today, what they need most is the symbol of Dragon Lord.
As for whether Dragon Lord exists or not, it is not the most important thing to them.
But now, Lu Qi's words revealed a lot of information.
What kind of star god can make his believers grow dragon horns and transform into dragons?
The answer is obvious.
"You... no, you... you are..."
"Don't dream. The Immortal Dragon died long ago. I just got some of the power of fate."
As we all know, the appearance of the Star God represents the beginning of a brand new destiny.
Once the destiny appears, it will not be closed. Even after the immortal dragon dies, the power of the immortal destiny will still protect the prosperity and decline of the Chiming clan.
People who can draw strength from their destiny are also called destiny walkers. Lu Qi is a special person. She was already well-known when she was still a human.
She carries the power of many destinies, and for most people, she is a miracle.
Seeing the eyes of the Vajra Dragon Masters light up and then become lost, Lu Qi couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Anyway, I'm not Canglong, nor am I the descendant of the Dragon Lord of the Luofu Chiming clan. Now I've brought your Dragon Lord back. Let's hold a ceremony for him someday!" Lu Qi excitedly began to make arrangements. "But I won't give back the house I'm living in. If you dare to kick me out, I'll nail you to the wall."
The dragon masters came in a serious manner and left in a trance.
Dan Feng sighed softly after they left.
"Didn't you ask me to help deal with them?"
"Oh, I forgot," Lu Qi said confidently, "but your communication is too gentle, my method is more convenient."
"So, their attention will be focused on the immortal destiny transforming ordinary people into dragonborn, and no longer on my life or death?"
"Well... not really. In fact, I think they thought you were Dan Heng who had recovered his memory." Lu Qi turned his head away. "Dan Heng is not here now. They are still staying in Pinocchio. The Dragon Masters probably won't go to inquire about the news, but..."
"But the truth will come to light sooner or later. One day, both he and I will be exposed."
"It doesn't matter. By then, you'd already been the Dragon Lord. Your affairs are the affairs of the Chiming Clan. No matter what the outside world says, they will become the Chiming Clan's secrets."
Which ancient race doesn’t have some secrets?
Lu Qi had thought it through. No matter how many questions or unclear points Master Chiming Long had, they had to swallow their pride and accept the fact for the sake of Dan Feng.
Because Lu Qi couldn't use the magic of transforming into a dragon, even if she were to become the Moon Drinker again, the Chiming Clan would have no future.
Only Dan Feng can solve all this.
The inheritance he carries is his confidence.
"...You think too highly of me." Dan Feng said.
The black-haired Dragon Lord lowered his brows, and the shadow cast by his eyelashes covered his pale pupils, showing a bit of fragility.
Lu Qi was completely unaware. She held her chin and moved closer to Dan Feng.
"Of course, you are Dan Feng, you can do whatever you want now."
“…”
"Although I still let you be the Dragon Lord of the Chiming Clan...but I don't mean to restrict you or force you to continue working for the Chiming Clan. You can do what you want," Lu Qi said. "If there is anything that doesn't go your way, go and discuss it with Jing Yuan. Jing Yuan has become a seasoned expert over the years."
"He also looks much more mature."
"Right, right! When I first saw him, I was surprised. That guy has grown so mature. Although he hasn't changed much compared to before... the biggest change is his height. He's almost the same height as you!"
Dan Feng didn't like what Lu Qi said. He frowned and turned his head away.
"I'm taller than him."
"You two have never competed before, how do you know?"
"I'm taller than him." Dan Feng emphasized.
"...Okay, you're taller than him, okay."
"You're just trying to fool me."
"Well, I haven't measured your heights either. Why don't we go out now and find Jing Yuan to try!"
Dan Feng couldn't bear to lose face by going out for such a boring thing, so he changed the subject in silence.
"Where do I live now?"
"Your original mansion. If you don't feel comfortable living there, you can stay with me temporarily. My house is quite big."
Lu Qi gestured.
"I see."
The troubles came to an end temporarily, and Lu Qi's interest flew to other aspects.
She talked to Danfeng about the martial arts ceremony, complaining that Jingyuan was holding a celebration during the chaos, and she was afraid that he wanted to catch everyone in one fell swoop; then she asked Danfeng to take her to Boyue Ancient Sea to find the cave he left behind, and she wanted to dig out her relics.
Dan Feng responded, occasionally feeding her peeled grapes, but when he passed it to the next person, the person next to him stopped responding.
He turned his head and saw the white-haired, golden-eyed dragon girl lying on the table, fast asleep.
Dan Feng didn't wake her up. He quietly ate the remaining grapes, cleaned his hands with the Cloud Chanting Technique, and then picked her up steadily.
Lu Qi raised his eyes when he moved, and after seeing that it was a familiar face, his eyelids fell again.
He was also mumbling nonsense.
"I also want to eat grapes... Taro Bobo... Fairy Happy Tea... Huh..."
glutton.
Dan Feng moved gently, and under the silent guidance of the maid, she carried Lu Qi back to her room.
He doesn't need to do the rest.
The maid of the Chiming tribe took good care of Lu Qi, wiping her cheeks and fingers, and finally covering her with a quilt.
Then she kicked the quilt away.
Dan Feng: “…”
This gentle sleep was indeed an illusion, Lu Qi was still the same Lu Qi.
