It wasn't until the people from the Dragon Palace came looking for her that Zhu Li realized she was still under house arrest because she had lost the Heart of the Vast Ocean. She had unknowingly run into the sea while chasing Zhu Lei.
"I can't stay out of the palace for too long, Yunhao! Let's go home!"
The girl's slender fingertips gently grasped Shen Yunhao's palm, and her clear eyes sparkled with an unextinguished flame... flowing within them was not only the burning passion of a long-awaited reunion, but also the joy of a girl's long-cherished wish finally being fulfilled!
Just like that line in the White Dragon Lantern.
"Yunhao...I will always wait for you!"
After so long, the White Dragon finally met the person she had been waiting for...
The simple phrase "Let's go back" reminded Shen Yunhao of the time he spent under the Heavenly Abyss.
At that time, the feelings between the two were not obvious. As the older sister, Zhuli only wanted to take her newly adopted younger brother back to Beihai and help him have a... real home.
Nowadays, although both are about going home, the meaning has changed drastically.
The boy took the delicate little hand in his own, a slight smile playing on his lips. The smile was subtle, yet it brightened his entire face, like gentle ripples spreading across the surface of water touched by a spring breeze.
"Okay... let's go home!"
At this moment, the two walking hand in hand are just like those old stories that have been treated gently by time—no need for many words, just holding hands like this is enough for a lifetime.
"Is it sour?"
Not far behind, Mo Yan said to Mu Shuangshuang beside him with a playful expression.
The little scorpion paused, then pointed to its own nose, "Me?"
"Is there anyone else here besides you?"
"I thought you were talking about yourself..."
Mu Shuangshuang crossed her arms and leaned closer with a smile, saying, "Look at you, your brows are all furrowed up, like a little walnut..."
Mo Yan took a deep breath. "It seems some people have been living comfortably for too long!"
"Hey! Hey! What are you doing? This is the bottom of the ocean, people will die here! Help!"
...
However, on the way back to the Dragon Palace, Shen Yunhao brought up another matter.
If he were to run back openly, he would inevitably be seen by the people under Zhu Lei's command.
In this way, she would know that she had escaped the dragon's belly.
Although there is no need to deliberately hide it now, I am only at the Divine Soul Realm. If I escape from the barrier inside the other party's abdomen so easily, it will easily arouse the other party's suspicion that I have other helpers by my side.
All that can be said is that, facing the Blood Sect lurking in the shadows, Shen Yunhao had to remain vigilant at all times and make every effort to prevent Mo Yan's identity from being revealed.
So the question is, how do you get in without attracting the other person's attention?
Shen Yunhao couldn't change his form and hide like the little scorpion and Mo Yan...
"Isn't that simple?"
Upon hearing this, Mo Yan immediately jumped forward and said, "Just go in the same way you did before!"
"Before? Wasn't it before..."
Halfway through his sentence, Shen Yunhao suddenly froze, and subconsciously glanced at the flat belly of the little white dragon beside him.
After a moment, realizing what she had said, she immediately slapped Mo Yan's head in embarrassment and annoyance, "What nonsense are you talking about? You're just trying to embarrass Sister Li'er..."
However, the next second, Shen Yunhao noticed that Zhuli turned her head away uncomfortably, her face flushed, and her little hands were absentmindedly touching her belly.
"..."
This reaction... isn't quite right, is it?
Why do you look like you really want to eat it?
Has Shen Yunhao become a hot commodity in other people's eyes?
Mo Yan blinked, and immediately showed an extremely interested expression. She had only mentioned it casually, but she didn't expect... it seemed to have revealed a shocking piece of gossip.
Only Mu Shuangshuang had a look of "as expected".
Having spent many years with Hongyu, she knew very well that these snake demons all had some strange hobbies, more or less.
Zhu Li isn't exactly a snake demon, but she does have some python blood in her body, so it's not surprising that she possesses some characteristics of snake demons.
Shen Yunhao coughed twice and said, "Well... actually, as long as we use a trick to deceive most people, it doesn't matter if the barrier detects it, since they can't access the barrier's data."
Zhu Li pouted and gave him a long, quiet glance, without showing much emotion.
Finally, under the cover of the white dragon that Zhu Li had transformed into, Shen Yunhao, who was hiding on the white dragon's body, successfully blended into the barrier and went unnoticed.
This was also the first time Shen Yunhao had come to this underwater dragon palace in a normal manner. Upon entering, he discovered that this place was no different from the outside continent.
The seawater is compressed, and there is plenty of air all around, so even an ordinary person can live here.
After listening to Zhu Li's explanation, Shen Yunhao gained a certain understanding of this place and the mysterious North Sea Dragon Clan.
The entire complex beneath the barrier is within the sphere of influence of the North Sea Dragon Clan. Only the tallest, largest, and most magnificent building in the center is called the North Sea Dragon Palace, the residence of the Dragon Clan's royal family.
Among those who survive within the barrier, the number of true dragons is extremely small.
The "true dragon race" here does not refer to pure-blooded dragons. Those with bloodlines from other races, such as Zhuli and Zhulei, are also called dragons, not dragon pythons or dragon ray.
From a bloodline perspective, neither the Ice Spirit Sea Serpent nor the Ghost Ray possesses the same bloodline power as dragon blood, and thus cannot be passed down to future generations…
In other words, if Zhu Li really had a child with Shen Yunhao, the baby would not have the bloodline of the python clan, which would be no different from Shen Yunhao marrying a pure-blooded dragon.
This is the main reason why the bloodline of dragons is not diluted even though they constantly interbreed with other races.
Even if you have other bloodlines, you are not destined to be a mixed-blood dragon for life. Obtaining the blood of the Ancestral Dragon in the Ancestral Dragon Land can also dispel the bloodlines of other races in your body, thus becoming a true pure-blood dragon!
However, the blood of the Ancestral Dragon is extremely rare. It can only be obtained by entering the Ancestral Dragon Land for trials every hundred years, and the success rate is quite low. It is generally reserved for the Dragon Clan royal family.
It is worth mentioning that all the Dragon Kings in history have inherited the blood of the Ancestral Dragon and become pure-blooded dragons in order to be qualified to sit on the throne.
Of the seven daughters of the current Dragon King Zhuxuan, three have already undergone the Ancestral Dragon Trials, but none have succeeded.
The Land of the Ancestral Dragon can only be entered once in a lifetime. If one fails, there will be no second chance. In other words, the princesses ranked ahead of the throne have lost the possibility of inheriting the throne.
The most recent Ancestral Dragon Land will open in five years. Zhu Li, who has been extremely affinity with the water element since childhood and has been recognized by the Heart of the Vast Ocean, is now known as the dragon clan member who is most likely to inherit the dragon bloodline in a thousand years.
