Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 121 Engagement? Ha!

Wow~

A huge water splash bloomed, and a silver fish was pulled to the surface of the water by a thin line, and finally firmly held by a hand with delicate skin and plump body.

"Noah, Gwen, we should go."

Cassius took the silver fish off the hook, threw it back into the river, and called out to the cat and granddaughter who were stunned by the scene.

"Oh, okay."

Noah leaped forward, intending to squat on little Gwen's head, but Gwendolyn stretched out her hands, caught him nimbly, and held him in her arms. From a distance, they looked extremely harmonious.

Gwendolen was almost fourteen years old at this time. She was tall and slender, and had grown up to be very graceful. Although she used magic to cover her face, this period of seclusion also attracted many restless teenagers and single men on the entire street.

Noah could often see some single guys with bad intentions wandering around the door. Although he was a golden dragon, Noah would not be polite at all at this time. He would perform harmless tricks one after another. He would use the human immobilization spell on those who were slightly excessive, and would put those who were too excessive into jail and then send them to the pioneering team.

The main reason is that Cassius's old man appearance is not very intimidating. As for the cat that Noah turned into, let alone any deterrent power, it's good enough that people don't have any ideas about him.

But it doesn't matter. As long as Noah is willing, the streets will be full of his elves. The ruling elves will come to power with their adoptive mother Selena, truly grasp the power of the Augustus family, and extend their tentacles to the entire territory. The city of Elishim has now become the base camp of the fairies.

The seemingly petite and cute little goblin is now respected and feared by everyone in the territory of the Augustus family, from noble officials to civilian merchants.

"Huh? You are old Carl's son, right?"

When Cassius was about to leave with his granddaughter holding the golden cat, he happened to meet his next-door neighbor. The neighbor looked at the man who had regained his youth. Although she felt that he looked familiar, she did not associate him with the hunchbacked old man at all.

"Ah."

Cassius responded, this was a new experience for him, he became his own son.

"Then Miss Gwen must be your daughter. She is the most beautiful girl on our street. I wonder if she has any engagement? My son just passed the marriage this year..."

The chubby middle-aged man's eyes naturally fell on Gwendolen. Even though her appearance was covered, she was still attractive.

"I have sold my house here and will not be coming back."

"I see. Looks like my silly boy doesn't stand a chance."

The fat man was stunned for a moment, then smiled regretfully. Then he realized something, took off his hat quickly, put it on his chest, and leaned forward slightly.

“Although this is only the first time we meet, your father is a very respectable old man. You must treat your father well in the future. It is not enough to just be accompanied by your daughter.

The security in Alishim is good, but there are outsiders pouring in every day. Finally, no matter where you move to, I wish you a smooth journey and a safe arrival. "

"Thank you."

Cassius thanked the man he was not very familiar with.

A simple conversation, and then this riverside courtyard was completely empty. The two people and the cat disappeared forever from the sight of the residents of this street. They would never know what kind of existence they had been neighbors with for a while.

However, there are many young boys and young men who often miss the cat-holding girl who accompanied her grandfather fishing.

"I didn't realize that the little fat guy who didn't even dare to look at you actually still missed you."

Noah, who has returned to the Mage City, teases the grown-up goose girl.

"Is there such a person?"

Gwendolyn looked thoughtful, with a confused look in her eyes, and then shook her head.

"I do not remember."

"We've lived there together for so long, don't you have any impression of any of the boys on that street?"

Jinlong was a little surprised.

"They are not necessary for me to remember."

Gwen's tone was very cold.

"Tsk, that's a really sad answer, but luckily they can't hear it!"

Noah gloated.

"I do not care."

The girl looked at the golden dragon, which had revealed its true form, with a puzzled expression.

"Dad Long, do you want me to enter into a marriage contract with someone else?"

"Engagement? Little Gwen, you want to get married? It just so happens that I have a marriage proposal from the royal family."

A playful voice sounded, and a door appeared. Selina stepped out of it and threw a golden book lightly to Gwen.

However, before the girl could reach out to catch the golden book, the golden dragon snatched it away in mid-air. After taking a glance at it, a bright flame ignited in its dragon claws, burning the golden book into a ball of golden liquid.
"What kind of scumbag dares to set his sights on my Gwen?"

"This is the prince with the best magical talent among the younger generation of the royal family."

Serena couldn't help but laugh when she saw Jin Long's reaction.

"The most talented? Taidel chopped the most outstanding genius prince in the royal family in the past century into a human stick. What is this contemporary number one prince now?"

Noah sneered. The royal power came from the legendary wizard. They were the direct descendants of the wizard, but after hundreds of years of blood inheritance, the family affection had long since faded.

To a certain extent, they are just puppets who rely on their bloodline and the deterrent power of the legendary wizard to manage the country for him.

Such a person, even if he is a so-called genius and is given the title of king, it sounds good, but how can he be compared with the legendary third generation like little Gwen? In terms of their dignity, they are not in the same league and are totally out of reach.

"Since you destroyed the golden book of marriage proposal, I can only reject the royal family's proposal."

Seeing her granddaughter's smiling face, Serena sighed helplessly.

"But this might cause dissatisfaction among the royal family. If anything happens, you will be responsible, little Noah."

"Don't give me that. I don't believe you would be interested in this kind of bastard, and would agree to let little Gwen get engaged to this kind of loser!"

Noah said unhappily.

"Of course not. If I want to marry Gwen, at least..."

Selena looked thoughtful, as if she was thinking about the conditions for marrying her granddaughter.

"At least he has to be comparable to my uncle in his peak state." Jin Long added casually.

"Then you might as well just say that you don't want Gwen to get married."

Serena couldn't help but roll her eyes.

It was only after she was promoted to Legend that he had a full understanding of how strong his partner was.

Even now, she is not sure to defeat Cassius, who has already extracted blood four times, let alone the inheritor of Titan blood at his peak condition.
Is that really a being that humans can defeat? In other words, the creature that can defeat peak Cassius cannot be a human, and the god-ascending creature is almost the same.

"If there is no one who can surpass my grandfather, then I will not marry."

The girl's face was full of smiles. She happily hugged the tail that happened to be in front of her.

"I want to be with Father Long forever."

"Okay, I know you have a good relationship with your father Long, and no one can separate you, but you can let him go for a while. He needs to go with me to do some business."

Selina glanced at Noah inadvertently, then waved her staff.
"Let's go, Cassius is waiting for us."

"it is good!"

Noah took a look at the girl who reluctantly let go of his tail. Gwendolyn, who had returned to the Mage City, had already lifted the concealing spell. Her slightly immature face had already become stunningly beautiful. Her silver hair fell to her waist, making her slightly thin and slender figure look a little more cold and aloof. However, the Golden Dragon knew how active the girl's emotions were when facing him.

"Don't you want to take a break? Isn't this a bit too hasty?"

Entering the demiplane that had evolved into Cassius's exclusive space, Noah saw his adoptive father's indifferent eyes and couldn't help but ask.

Although he had not experienced it personally, Noah could fully imagine how painful the process of having his blood drawn was. The last time must have been the most difficult one.

Even if the adoptive father's condition has been adjusted, as the adoptive mother said, there is still a risk of death.

"I've rested long enough."

Cassius laughed.

"Noah, there's no need to tell him this. We've already said everything we need to say. If you still have the energy, why not check the formation again?"

"profound!"

Even after hundreds of adjustments, when this magic circle, which was designed to deprive him of his bloodline, began to work, Cassius still couldn't bear it and revealed his true body, which was less than 20 meters long.

As strands of golden light were extracted from the increasingly languid giant, Cassius' original human form gradually emerged.

But his posture at this time was even worse than the last time. His black hair had turned completely white, and his life energy had been reduced to a level that even Noah felt terrified. His blood had been extracted, and it contained not only the power of blood, but also tremendous vitality and strength.

"That's about it, auntie!"

Noah didn't dare to continue. He was really afraid of beating his adoptive father to death.

"I know him better than you do. He can hold on. Keep going."

Selena's eyes also revealed a kind of coldness and determination that Noah rarely saw. Facing her husband who could die at any time, she did not waver at all.

roar~
With a low roar, no more golden light appeared. In the center of the magic circle, above the shriveled figure like a skeleton, a golden crystal emitting billions of rays of light condensed into shape, containing an extremely tempting vitality and powerful strength.

Noah had no doubt that if anyone could fuse this crystal, they would be able to cross the barrier that had hindered the progress of countless lives in one step and become a legend standing at the pinnacle of the material world, and not just a low-level gatekeeper legend.

However, the creatures that merge blindly are most likely to be torn to pieces by the power contained therein, and even their souls will be destroyed. That is a power that not everyone is qualified to touch.

"Keep it safe."

Selina took out the fifth Titan blood crystal and handed it to Noah. After giving him some serious instructions, she went to visit Cassius, who was only breathing heavily.

Noah also followed. At this time, his adoptive father looked extremely miserable. He was like a hunched skeleton covered with an old and shriveled human skin. His whole body was filled with death, his eyeballs were cloudy, his hair was withered, and only a breath of life was left in his chest, like a mortal on his deathbed.

However, for Cassius, he has already survived the most difficult time. The last breath he has left is like the first ray of light at dawn, piercing the long night. Next, he will be like the rising sun, opening a new chapter in his life.

"Gulu, Gulu..."

The slim, youthful and beautiful girl helped the old man up, then handed a silver pot full of vitality to his lips and gulped it down.

"The realm has fallen?!"

When he saw his adoptive father's body relax again, his muscles become full again, and felt the vigorous breath that was restored, Jin Long was somewhat surprised to find that the man in front of him was no longer a legend.

"It is indeed the case. What a pity."

Noah sighed inwardly, but he was not too surprised. This was also one of the situations that he had expected.

"That's enough. It's a waste to drink any more. It has no effect on me."

Cassius's old and dying appearance only lasted for a short while. After pushing open the silver pot, in front of Noah's surprised eyes, this legend who was once the strongest in the continent took out all kinds of treasures filled with vitality and swallowed them one by one.

"This is?"

Jin Long's eyes suddenly became strange.

He could recognize the origins of most of the treasures: the Flower of Eternity, the Eye of the Phoenix, the Fountain of Youth… These were treasures that would be effective even if taken by a legend, and could prolong the life of a legend.

However, for Cassius, who possessed Titan blood and had reached the peak of his powers, it really had no effect. But now it is different.

The one who is taking these treasures now is just an ordinary human, Cassius, who can hardly maintain his legendary rank and has fallen to the ultimate realm.

Any one of these treasures could extend a lifespan of at least 500 years. In Noah's perception, the vitality of his adoptive father Cassius gradually became stronger, and then reached an unpredictable level.

Click~

Suddenly, there was a sound as if something was broken and put back together. Noah looked at his adoptive father, who looked like a perfect match for his adoptive mother. He understood immediately.
"Uncle, did you fall to the legendary realm on purpose?"

"Of course, if I don't go down, how can I rebuild the Ultimate Meaning of Life?"

Cassius showed a bright and sunny smile like a teenager, and seemed to be in a very good mood.

"Now, I have enough time to chase after my former self and try to surpass my former peak."

"You are happy and satisfied, but now all the pressure is on me alone."

Although Selena had a smile in the corner of her eyes, she did not give her husband a good look.
