"Sister Li'er, are you saying that your aunt is not a dragon, but a member of the Ice Spirit Sea Python clan?" Shen Yunhao couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"That's right. My mother was the previous Holy Maiden of the Python Clan. After marrying my father, she gradually stopped interfering in the affairs of the Python Clan."
"This...this..."
This matter was somewhat beyond Shen Yunhao's comprehension.
Sister Li'er is clearly a white dragon, so how could her mother be a python?
Could a daughter born from the union of a dragon and a python be a pure dragon?
The little white dragon raised its eyes, seemingly seeing through Shen Yunhao's thoughts, and explained: "The pure-blooded dragon race has a strong bloodline. The children born from mating with other races are basically of dragon bloodline. Only a small number of offspring born from races with strong bloodlines can retain a trace of bloodline power."
"My mother's bloodline power is not weak, so I also retain a certain amount of python clan ability in my body. It's just that it is suppressed by the dragon clan bloodline and cannot be shown on a daily basis."
"There aren't many dragons with pure bloodlines in the world, especially in my father's generation, thousands of years ago. They were even rarer. Most of the other dragons we encountered were related to each other, so... it was actually quite rare for dragons to form couples."
"I see!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yunhao stroked his chin, suddenly realizing something, and subconsciously asked, "Then... Sister Li'er has a portion of the python bloodline in her body, so wouldn't she be able to transform into a white snake?"
"That's natural... Hmm? Yun Hao, what's with that expression?"
"No...no..."
Shen Yunhao immediately lowered his head, suppressing some of his wicked thoughts, and coughed twice before saying, "Well, since Auntie is in trouble, would Sister Li'er be willing to lend a hand?"
"Sigh..." Zhuli sighed, her tail drooping: "Although I am a white dragon, my cultivation is ultimately insufficient. My mother is already a great cultivator in the Spirit Void Realm, an opponent even she avoids. How could she possibly care about my status..."
Moreover... if the people of Guanghan Palace were to find out that Han Haixin was here, and someone were to have wicked thoughts, the consequences would be unimaginable.
A young white dragon, not yet an adult, and a python spirit.
Killing him is fine, but what's more important than this rare treasure?
"Fortunately, this place conceals our presence very well, so people outside can't detect us, otherwise we would both be in danger..."
Hearing this, Shen Yunhao's expression became slightly more serious, but he still stepped forward to comfort her, "Don't worry, Auntie is a lucky person, she'll definitely be alright! With her high cultivation level, even if she can't win in a fight, it'll be very easy for her to escape back to Beihai..."
"It's just that... Sister Li'er didn't get to meet Auntie and missed this opportunity, so she'll probably have to stay here for a while longer."
The little white dragon looked up at the cave ceiling and sighed softly, "With this place to help me recover, it's alright to return to my clan later... I just hope my mother can escape safely..."
...
Above, the two are still facing off.
But Mei Yu'er was already thinking of a way to escape.
Nie Qingshuang is right. This Qingyou Palace Master's cultivation has already broken through the Void Realm, and there is a whole major realm between them. If they really fought, she would definitely not be a match for her.
If I really fall into the hands of this crazy woman, she won't let me off easily unless she beats me to a pulp, and it will also delay the search for Li'er.
But this place is at the end of the abyss, on the shore of the Longhai Sea.
Her true form is that of a sea serpent, so once she reaches the Longhai Sea, she might still have a chance to escape.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense and a major battle was about to break out, a green light suddenly emanated from the ancient tree in the distance.
"Hehehe... I hope you two will give this old man some face and not make a move here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, light gathered at the top of the tree, revealing an elderly man with white hair.
The old man wore a simple Taoist robe. Although his hair and beard were all white, his skin was as fair and pink as a newborn baby's, full of vitality.
As the saying goes, "white hair and a youthful face," and this is certainly true.
After the old man appeared, accompanied by two faint laughs, he stepped through the air and instantly arrived beside the two women who were about to fight. He clasped his hands in a fist salute to Nie Qingshuang and said, "Palace Master, please calm down. Madam Mei came to Yunzhou to see this old Taoist priest on business and has no other intentions. I hope that Palace Master will understand and not let this misunderstanding damage the harmony..."
"Misunderstanding... What misunderstanding could there be? This snake demon has never been one to stay still. If left unchecked, who knows what kind of trouble it might cause!"
Nie Qingshuang spoke calmly, but the illusory image of the world-shaking sword behind her slowly dissipated.
It seems they're planning to take advantage of the situation to back down...
"Senior Chongmuzi..."
On the other hand, Mei Yu'er treated the old man with much more respect.
This person is the Supreme Ancestor of the Qingmu Dao Sect, the first sect leader, an old monster who has cultivated for countless years, and whose cultivation has long since broken through the Void Realm, making him comparable to Nie Qingshuang.
Chong Muzi nodded and smiled at her: "Madam Mei, I have already said that I do not know the whereabouts of the Seventh Princess. Staying here any longer will only waste time and delay your search."
"Seventh Princess?" Nie Qingshuang raised an eyebrow. "What? You've lost your precious daughter?"
"None of your business!" Mei Yu'er glared at her fiercely.
"Tch! Do you think I have the time to meddle in the affairs of your North Sea Dragon Clan?" Nie Qingshuang sneered. "That old codger Zhu Xuan, if he lets you keep making trouble like this, the North Sea Dragon Clan will fall apart sooner or later!"
"Isn't that what your Guanghan Palace wants to see? What? Is Palace Master Nie also getting restless and wanting to get involved?"
"Losing your daughter won't change your foul mouth!" Nie Qingshuang waved her hand, seemingly too lazy to argue with her anymore, and turned to leave.
"I advise you to return to the North Sea as soon as possible. If you encounter another palace master next time, you may not be so lucky!"
"That crazy woman! What bad luck..."
After Nie Qingshuang had completely walked away, Mei Yu'er turned around and said to Chong Muzi with a reluctant tone, "Senior, have you really not seen my Li'er? She is still young and rarely leaves home for such a long time. I... I am really worried about her."
She sensed through a secret technique that Han Haixin's last known location was at the Qingmu Dao Sect, which is why she squeezed out some time to come here. Unexpectedly, she encountered that crazy woman Nie Qingshuang as soon as she arrived.
"Alas, Madam Mei, you are blinded by concern. I have lived an upright life, why would I deceive you... Besides, what Palace Master Nie said makes sense. The North Sea Dragon Clan still needs you to return to stabilize the situation. The Seventh Princess has always been blessed, so she should be fine! It would be safe for you to return to the clan first..."
"Thank you for your kind words, senior. I have troubled you and will take my leave now..."
Mei Yu'er finally gave up and turned to leave.
No one knows where Li'er went; the life-soul tablet in her hand is the last hope that she is still alive...
After Mei Yu'er left, Chong Muzi sighed softly, "The chaos in the North Sea may very well have the involvement of the Demonic Sect... This world is likely to be in turmoil..."
