Adorably Cute Baby: Mommy's Going Against the Heavens

"Xiao Yu! It really is you! Father... Father thought he would never see you again in this life!" The golden dragon was so excited that he was almost incoherent, his huge dragon face full of disbelief and ecstasy.

He circled around the chariot, its golden scales shimmering with dazzling light, as if to illuminate the entire room.

Shen Yunxi watched in stunned silence.

This golden dragon claims to be the King? So, this golden dragon really is Long Lingyu's father?

When faced with this sudden appearance of "Father King", Zhi Yan showed no joy. Instead, he took a step back and his eyes showed a hint of resistance.

However, he nodded, which was taken as an acknowledgment of the relationship.

"Xiao Yu, you've woken up?" Long Qi, the human form of the golden dragon, looked at Zhi Yan with surprise.

Shen Yunxi's heart stirred. It seemed that the Dragon Clan did not know the true situation of Long Lingyu and only thought that he had fallen into a deep sleep.

She secretly glanced at Zhiyan, only to see him nod slightly, which was considered an acknowledgment of his identity.

Upon receiving his son's response, Ryuzaki became even more excited, his hearty laughter echoing through the room. Fortunately, Zhiyan reinforced the barrier in time, preventing the inn from collapsing.

His eyes welled up with tears, as if he were about to burst into tears at any moment. "That's wonderful! That's wonderful! You've finally awakened! Father... Father can rest in peace now..."

With a flash of golden light, Ryuzaki's massive body vanished, replaced by a handsome middle-aged man dressed in fine clothes.

He rushed to Zhiyan, his hands trembling as he tried to touch his child, but his hand passed right through Zhiyan's body.

Ryuzaki then realized that he was now just a remnant soul, and laughed awkwardly, "Look at my memory, I was too excited and forgot what state I'm in right now..."

He withdrew his hand with a dejected expression, then, as if remembering something, his expression turned serious: "Xiao Yu, listen to me, the Black Dragon Clan is a wolf in sheep's clothing. They are colluding with those scoundrels of the God Clan, and there's that Demon Queen, she's a vampire, she's been sacrificing our people to her king! You must be wary of them!"

As Ryuzaki finished speaking, his figure began to become transparent.

Zhi Yan remained expressionless, as if these matters had nothing to do with him.

A flicker of pain crossed Ryuzaki's eyes. He sighed, his voice tinged with apology: "Xiaoyu, I'm sorry, I can't be with you anymore... But, to have seen you in this life, your father has no regrets..."

His gaze shifted to Shen Yunxi and Di Xuanshang, a hint of doubt in his eyes: "Who are they to you? Are they friends you made in the human realm?"

Zhi Yan nodded slightly.

"Alright...alright..." Ryuzaki smiled with satisfaction, "My two young friends, I'm entrusting Xiaoyu to your care..."

Shen Yunxi was taken aback. Take care of him? This guy seems much more capable than her, does he need to be taken care of? Nevertheless, she nodded, agreeing to Long Qi's request.

Ryuzaki walked to the window, stood with his hands behind his back, as if he could see his distant hometown, his eyes filled with longing.

"Xiao Yu, you are the last bloodline of our Golden Dragon clan. You must protect yourself and the Dragon Clan... shoulder your responsibilities..." He glanced at Zhi Yan one last time, his eyes filled with reluctance. "I have to go... please tell Grandpa I'm sorry... that he, a white-haired man, has to bury his black-haired son..."

Ryuzaki's figure vanished completely, and the golden light in the room dissipated as well. The Dragon Roar Sword turned into an ordinary soul weapon.
