Anime: Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon, picked up by the Knight King

Xia Mi raised her head again and looked at the mixed-race people around her with unfriendly expressions.

Lu Mingfei was young and inexperienced in worldly affairs, so he didn't understand.

Doesn't she, a young and invincible beauty who has lived for tens of thousands of years, understand this?

These hybrids were not here to monitor Lu Mingfei at all.

But -

"Calm down, Lu Mingfei."

Suddenly, a brief but powerful voice sounded in the ears of Xia Mi and Lu Mingfei.

At the same time, a hand appeared and forcibly pressed down on Lu Mingfei's shoulder.

It’s Chu Zihang.

"Don't be fooled by the illusion in front of you, Lu Mingfei."

"They're not here for you."

"In other words, if they really wanted to monitor or even imprison you, they could have prevented you from leaving our city, or even from leaving Shilan Middle School."

Chu Zihang thought calmly.

The nearly 15-year-old boy displayed calmness and wisdom beyond his age - his words were calm and convincing, and Lu Mingfei even felt that his judgment was more majestic than Vina's words.

Lu Mingfei subconsciously chose to believe Chu Zihang's words.

And when he regained his senses, he looked around again with a cautious and careful look.

However, he discovered that the gazes of those mixed-bloods did not seem to be focused on him.

But...Xia Mi?

……

All these people were staring at Xia Mi.

Even including Chu Hang.

However, it was different from the fearful and fanatical looks in the eyes of other people.

The way Chu Zihang looked at Xia Mi was more of curiosity and a desire to explore.

“I felt it was strange a long time ago.”

"If you were a half-blood—even a half-blood like my father—you would never have fallen to such a state."

"You have great power. Even if you don't want to use that power to make extra money outside of the law, you can still make a good living with this talent."

"If you are willing, any program in the national team is willing to open the door for you."

Chu Zihang murmured.

He was not asking Xia Mi, he was just talking to himself, stating his own judgment and looking for some clues from it.

"But if you are not a half-blood, or rather, if you are not human."

"Then your behavior is completely explained."

"I guess you are a dragon, and a very high-ranking one... a third-generation dragon, or even a second-generation one!"

Chu Zihang boldly gave his inference.

Xia Mi was stunned - but did not show any shock.

She just seemed a little dissatisfied.

"Why don't you guess that I'm a first-generation species?"

As she spoke, she spread out her hands, looking very domineering and majestic.

But Chu Zihang shook his head silently.

The boy didn't say anything, but his eyes full of compassion seemed to say it all.

——To end up like this? Forget it.

"You guy!!!"

"Don't look down on the dragon!!!"

Xia Mi acted angry and looked like she wanted to bite someone - but for some reason, the person she was angry at was obviously Chu Zihang, but her pink fists fell on Lu Mingfei.

"..."

Lu Mingfei was a little embarrassed.

The young man who just wanted to fight the whole world on his own suddenly found that he had made a big mistake... He found that he was not as important as he thought.

This made him feel somewhat relaxed, but also a little lonely.

“Dragon King…”

He knew Xia Mi's true identity.

In other words, almost all dragon slayers in the world know Xia Mi's true identity.

But no one dared to touch her for the time being.

Shirataki - a huge, terrifying, white shadow is looming over this world and over the heads of all living beings in this world.

Facing this unprecedented and incredibly powerful enemy, the hybrids even temporarily forgot the threat posed by a Dragon King.

Of course, it is also possible that this Dragon King is too good at currying favor with powerful people - those hybrids dare not attack Xia Mi at all because of the fear of hurting themselves.

But they had to monitor Xia Mi and monitor every move of this "humanoid self-propelled strategic weapon."

Therefore, it is reasonable for these hybrids to appear in this scenic area.

——This is not a privilege, but to protect the safety of those tourists and those staff.

But Xia Mi herself doesn't care about these things - in fact, she still enjoys this kind of "surveillance" life.

Especially when these mixed-bloods bought the KFC where she worked, allowing her to get fries and Coke openly, she fell in love with her current life even more.

But now.

For Lu Mingfei, who had come all the way to eastern Sichuan, there was still a very important matter that needed to be resolved:

“So many people are watching…”

He pulled the corner of Xia Mi's clothes and asked in a low voice:

"How can we rob tombs?"

Chapter 223: The surging river, no one is coming

Lu Mingfei was a little hesitant.

After all, this is a good student who is undergoing nine years of compulsory education. Not only does he have upright values, but he also has the most basic concept of good and evil in his heart.

At the very least, he still understands the principle that "you will have to bear the consequences if you do bad things."

But this also precisely reflects the difference between him and Xia Mi.

"What are you afraid of?"

"They won't stop us."

"To be exact, we are all in the same group now."

Looking at the half-bloods around her with unfriendly expressions, Xia Mi showed a sneer on her face.

That was the smile of a conspiracy that had succeeded.

At this moment, Lu Mingfei finally realized that he seemed to have been deceived by Xia Mi's harmless face.

——After all, she is not a real junior high school student.

Although Lu Mingfei knew this in his heart, when this "conspiracy" carefully designed by Xia Mi was placed in front of him, he realized belatedly that the means of this "King of the Earth and Mountains" were so "terrible".

"Hey, hey, stop looking at me like I'm a monster, okay?"

"I repeat, I did nothing - they took the bait!"

The girl "defended" herself righteously.

But looking at Lu Mingfei's somewhat suspicious eyes and Chu Zihang's expression of "Go on, we are listening".

The Dragon King, who holds the authority of [Wisdom], finally sighed.

She hated explaining these things to little kids.

——But there’s nothing we can do about it, it was her choice.

"Then I'll just tell you about it."

……

That wasn't really a conspiracy at all.

At best, Xia Mi took advantage of some "conditions" she knew to become the host.

"Money moves the heart, young men!"

"You don't think that the treasure of the Bronze and Fire King... is... only us?"

Xia Mi said proudly.

Conspiracy.

This is a naked conspiracy.

Even though these hybrids knew there was a trap here, once they heard about the Tomb of the Lord of Bronze and Fire, they would still flock here like flies smelling worms.

"Ugh, so disgusting~"

Lu Mingfei frowned, not quite understanding why such a dirty metaphor could come out of the mouth of such a pretty girl.

Xia Mi, however, held her head high and chest out, looking proud of herself.

"Though, these hybrids probably still have some brains."

"They knew they were part of a conspiracy, so they didn't dare to act rashly."

"They just surrounded us and waited for our next move - I doubt they wanted to pick our fruits!"

Xia Mi spoke to these hybrids in a rather unkind tone, as if she were a complete victim.

Lu Mingfei was fooled by her again.

This poor little guy, although full of passion and justice, was played around by this "mother dragon" who had lived for who knows how many years - Xia Mi's word "we" made Lu Mingfei really think that he and she were in the same camp.

The so-called art of language is nothing more than this.

But then again.

Although Xia Mi relied on these little verbal tricks to make Lu Mingfei think that they were all in the same group and should be united against the same enemy.

But Lu Mingfei will not forget that here, he has an absolutely reliable partner - the kind that is absolutely reliable in terms of both strength and trust.

"What about the teacher?"

"Teacher, what do you think?"

"Teacher, teacher?"

Lu Mingfei set his sights on Vina.

——It's very strange.

From a while ago, this English teacher who had always been enthusiastic and outgoing suddenly fell silent.

It was as if she was in a daze, and as if she didn't care at all about what was happening here - whether it was the treasures hidden in the mountains and rivers, or the mixed-breeds all over the mountains, it seemed that none of them could attract her attention.

"It's like... falling asleep."

Lu Mingfei accurately described Vina's current condition.

——It’s exactly the same as when he’s daydreaming in class.
