As he walked, Ji Yuan kept his eyes on the embryo in his hand. The reagents in the culture dish, which Ji Yuan had added to accelerate its development, had already allowed it to mature considerably. Essentially, the prototype of the embryo that Ji Yuan desired was gradually emerging.
Well, although there were many twists and turns along the way, we finally arrived at our destination smoothly.
Ji Yuan felt somewhat happy.
But the next second, his happy expression vanished instantly.
The system's notification sound appeared in my mind.
[With your exceptional charm, you successfully persuaded the Great Lord of Annihilation, Huanlong, to abandon his intention to kill you. For this, the system rewards you with +10 to Danger Perception.]
His expression almost completely collapsed.
What the hell?
Huanlong wants to kill me?
No, she doesn't just want to kill me, but the people who have come to the Vidyadhara clan.
Ji Yuan felt that if it weren't him, but someone else, they would really die.
The messenger sent by General Luofu died in the territory of the Vidyadhara clan.
That's even harder to explain.
Ji Yuan felt a lingering fear in his heart.
"Brother, what's with that expression?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I'm just worried that the general might catch that blade in time."
Ji Yuan changed the subject and spoke to Yan Qing.
"Don't worry, we have informed the general in time, and he will definitely respond promptly."
Yanqing immediately assured him.
"Ah."
Led by the Chiming clan, the two arrived at Bailu's residence. Before they even reached the door, Ji Yuan heard arguing coming from inside.
"My Lady Dragon Girl, you really can't go out today."
"Why can't I go out? If I don't go out, won't things get unclear?" Bai Lu's small, angry voice came: "If I really attack the judge of the Ten Kings Division, I will bear the responsibility."
"Dragon Girl, we can handle this matter. You should know that the video has been played on the entire Immortal Ship by someone with malicious intent. It would be too dangerous for you to go out."
"You can just stay here and don't worry about anything else. Sigh... Lady Dragon Girl, what are you doing?"
While Ji Yuan and Yan Qing were eavesdropping, the door to the room suddenly opened from the inside, and a small figure ran out and bumped right into Ji Yuan.
"Well……"
His expression instantly turned to pain.
Bai Lu's height, along with the dragon horns on her head, allowed her to hit his lower abdomen precisely.
Even he didn't feel good about it.
Ji Yuan quickly handed the embryo in his hand to Yan Qing, who promptly took it upon seeing it.
Bai Lu stopped in her tracks when Ji Yuan bumped into her. Taking two steps back, she saw it was Ji Yuan and said in confusion, "Aren't you the person from last night? What are you doing here? You…"
Looking at the elders of the Chiming Clan chasing after her, and then at Ji Yuan's pained expression, Bai Lu thought for a moment, then gritted her teeth.
"How are you now? Let me treat you first."
At this time, the people of the Vidyadhara clan also came and surrounded Bailu.
Ji Yuan recovered and said to Bai Lu, "It's nothing, I just hadn't recovered yet, but I'm fine now."
After saying this, he turned to the elders of the Ming Clan: "Yanqing and I came here on the general's orders. We'll talk about the specifics later."
Yanqing's identity was common knowledge, and he was carrying a general's token, so no one present doubted him.
"However, before we meet with everyone, I have some things I'd like to discuss with Lady Dragon Girl privately."
Upon hearing this, the elder of the Chiming Clan frowned. One of them stepped forward and said to Ji Yuan, "The Dragon Girl is still young and not yet of age to take charge. You should tell us what you need to say."
Ji Yuan looked at the elders of the Chiming Clan, and then at Bai Lu, who was pouting.
Between the two options, he made his choice almost without hesitation.
"The General has instructed me to report to Lady Dragon Girl privately. What, do you think you can make decisions on behalf of the General?"
Looking at the elders of the Ming Clan, Ji Yuan refused to budge an inch.
"Yes, that's the general's order."
Although Yanqing didn't understand the situation, he knew that his older brother was smarter than him. What he said was right.
Seeing that Yanqing was about to fight them, the elders of the Chiming clan couldn't help but hesitate.
If these people were to do other things, they might be fine, but if they really fought with Yanqing, they would only get a beating.
"Alright, quickly tell Lady Dragon Girl that we're waiting for you inside. Also, the surrounding area is the territory of the Vidyadhara Clan, so Lady Dragon Girl shouldn't stray too far."
"Yes, we'll be back soon."
Ji Yuan led Bai Lu aside.
Seeing that it was just her and Ji Yuan, Bai Lu showed a slightly relaxed expression.
"Those guys don't give me any say at all. I have to do whatever they say. They expect me to follow all the rules that a Dragon Lord should abide by without question. Seriously, is there any Dragon Lord locked up at home?"
She couldn't help but say it.
However, after she finished speaking, she looked at Ji Yuan standing to the side with a questioning expression on her face.
"By the way, are you really alright?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Ji Yuan shook his head. But when he looked at Bai Lu, his expression was full of pity.
She was so young, yet she was confined and forced to act according to the ideas of the elders and dragon masters of the Vidyadhara clan.
Such exploitation of child labor is truly infuriating.
If only there were a way to free Bailu from the control of the Dragon Masters.
Unfortunately, her current strength is too weak; she only possesses healing abilities. A truly complete Dragon Lord is a powerful figure on the entire Immortal Ship, with few rivals besides the Generals.
It's not possible to do this during the White Dew season yet.
Bai Lu then spoke up and asked Ji Yuan, "By the way, can you tell me the truth about what happened last night? Did I really attack the people from the Ten Kings Division?"
Her expression was tense; she wanted to know the truth, but was also afraid of the truth being exposed to her.
"Yes and no. Last night, you were possessed by Suiyang."
Ji Yuan then recounted Sui Yang's story to Bai Lu.
Bai Lu frowned deeply after hearing Ji Yuan's words.
"So, the person who attempted assassination last night really was me. You, you came here to tell me to release this information?"
“Of course not.” Ji Yuan shook his head: “I came here because…”
Just as he was about to reveal the plan he had discussed, he felt someone pat him on the back.
Turn around and look,
He noticed that Huanlong was now pulling his hand back behind his back and looking at him with a smile.
Its body, which had transformed into Tingyun, swayed slightly, and the ears and tail on its head also trembled slightly.
"Ji Yuan, I've come to see Lady Bailu for a massage. Are you also here to see Lady Bailu for a medical consultation?"
Huanlong asked with a smile.
"You guys know each other?"
Bai Lu pointed at Ji Yuan, then at Huan Long, and asked.
"Of course."
Huanlong stepped forward and took Ji Yuan's hand.
Chapter 101 The Star Core Eruption Was My doing, Danfeng [Second Update]
Ji Yuan tried his best to keep his expression calm.
All he could think about was the clue he'd received from almost being killed by Huanlong.
She was watching all along.
From the moment I disembarked from the Star Raft until I entered this place and stayed with Bai Lu, I had been under Huanlong's gaze.
"Yes, we know each other." Ji Yuan nodded, trying to adjust himself to a normal state, his thumb still gently tracing the back of Huanlong's hand.
Since there's nothing we can do right now, we might as well take advantage of it.
Feeling that Ji Yuan actually dared to 'boldly' 'rebel' against him, Huanlong couldn't help but feel happy.
Okay.
At least my hard work wasn't in vain.
It wasn't for nothing that I let you go earlier.
Jing Yuan would send someone to find Bai Lu; she would definitely guess that. Huan Long's plan was clear: those videos weren't enough to create conflict between the two clans. So they would continue to sow discord.
As a result, Huanlong quietly came over to take a look, and hey, it turned out to be Ji Yuan.
Looking at Ji Yuan, Huanlong naturally couldn't bear to kill him for this.
Then naturally they would come to find him.
"It seems that although there are some problems, adjusting the order is not a bad idea. Well, a few failures will make the final result more satisfying."
Looking at Huanlong, Ji Yuan thought for a moment and said to her, "I came here because of Lady Bailu. Did you see the video circulating on the Immortal Ship this morning? Yanqing and I came here to find Lady Bailu on the orders of the General."
"Yes, I've seen that video, but isn't it obviously fake?"
Huanlong nodded in agreement.
At the same time, she looked at Bai Lu and said earnestly, "Lady Bai Lu, I am willing to be your witness."
