Tian Shu spoke, his tone authoritative and persistent! His gaze, falling on Hu Qi, was filled with scrutiny.
Hu Qi’s body stiffened! He felt inexplicably nervous! The illusion of being reprimanded by an elder left him somewhat flustered.
"Yes… Yes!"
After speaking, before Tian Shu could ask further, he quickly added.
"My name is Hu Qi, greetings Senior! My cultivation is at the first stage of Heavenly Dao Saint! I am over two hundred years old, a fox with ancient divine beast bloodlines. I have over two hundred older brothers and sisters at home, and over a hundred younger brothers and sisters. My mother is a white fox, and my father is a black fox… I am currently striving to become stronger, aiming to be contracted by my Master soon!"
After a long string of self-introduction, Tian Shu felt a little dizzy. Moments later, he turned to the others with a look of utter speechlessness.
"Understood…"
Only one thought echoed in his mind! He talks too much…
Seeing the atmosphere becoming awkward, Jin Bao'er sighed! She suddenly missed Bao Bao! If that little fellow were here, the atmosphere certainly wouldn't be like this.
"You are all my companions, and I will not force you to accept each other! Just be yourselves."
Even her spirit treasure contracted beasts or immortal artifacts deserved their own thoughts and personalities; she would not force them to accept other companions, as this was a matter of respect.
Afterward, she released her divine sense, quickly locating the Golden Dragon clan, and went alone! Leaving them staring at each other!
The Golden Dragon clan…
As a clan second only to the Black Dragons in power among the dragon race, they were warlike. Upon returning to the Upper Realm, their cultivation had not waned at all!
Before Jin Bao'er even landed, she sensed powerful auras emanating from not far away, sweeping through the surroundings like explosions! Numerous chaotic dragon breaths assailed her, fierce and ardent!
"Roar!!"
As a dragon's roar echoed through the heavens! In this area, centered on a certain spot, a gust of wind suddenly erupted! Forcing all the trees to lean in one direction, swaying precariously!
After a wave of fierce wind passed, leaves and dust were swept up and into the air. Anyone unaware would have thought the dragon clan was facing an invasion.
A stunning woman in a light blue mermaid gauze gown remained unmoved, her brow lightly furrowed! When the gust of wind was still three meters away, it was instantly scattered by an invisible force!
She turned her head, looking at the broken trees and piles of grass around her, her gaze shifting…
Heavenly Dao Emperor pressure?!
She knew the dragon clan enjoyed combat challenges! But to deploy such cultivation for this?
Thinking thus, she soared into the sky without hesitation, her figure vanishing from her spot in a blink.
Not far away, on a massive circular platform, two Golden Dragons, not particularly large in size, attacked each other. One of them swung its thick, heavy tail, aiming a vicious blow at the other's head!
"Swish!"
The speed was so fast it was impossible to see clearly! Only the sound of air being torn reached the ears of the surrounding dragons!
Immediately following!
"Bang!"
A loud impact resounded. The dragon's tail missed its target and slammed heavily onto the ground! Immediately creating a deep pit on the platform.
The other Golden Dragon, having dodged the attack, felt a lingering shock in its dragon eyes! Seeing this, its expression turned annoyed, and it then glared at the other, soaring into the air and pouncing directly at its opponent. Its mouth opened wide, aiming for the other's neck, while its sharp claws simultaneously pressed down on its dragon back…
The entire sequence of actions happened in the blink of an eye. The Golden Dragon on the ground, whose tail had just missed, had no time to retract it before being controlled from behind. Its neck felt a sharp pain, and just as it was about to counterattack…
It suddenly let out a mournful cry! It struggled its body frantically! A massive weight from behind pressed it down, and the sharp, five-clawed golden dragon directly pierced its scales!
The moment dragon blood flowed, it had lost!
"Roar!! Ao!!"
The surrounding dragons watched with blood boiling, roaring with excitement, their eyes blood-red as they gazed at the combat arena! Longing to challenge immediately.
Jin Bao'er arrived at this very moment. Her divine sense had noted the intensity of the dragon clan's challenges from afar. Without any reservation or hesitation, their attacks were aimed at vital points, and they skillfully utilized all their advantages!
Seeing this made her expression tremble! She watched the dominant Golden Dragon that had just won, proud and smug! Her heart surged with excitement!
As expected of a divine beast known for its defense and absolute power, strong and fierce! She recalled that when she first ascended, Long Li Xing had mentioned that due to the Heavenly Dao's suppression, there were few Heavenly Dao Emperors among the dragon race! Now, looking at them, there were at least seven or eight.
And this was in just over three years! If they were given more time, they might… No wonder those aristocratic clans were so wary of the dragon race! Who wouldn't be afraid and concerned?
Her small figure stopped in place, inconspicuous among the group of giants! However, she was quickly noticed by the Golden Dragon patriarch! His massive body suddenly shrank, transforming into human form and descending. With just two steps, he appeared before Jin Bao'er!
The enthusiastic group of Golden Dragons then noticed their patriarch's actions, turning their heads to look… and then their eyes widened in surprise!
It wasn't that they were surprised; it was mainly that they all knew of Jin Bao'er's existence, but from the Dragon Continent until now, very few dragons had interacted with this human female cultivator! They were curious, and after all, it was Jin Bao'er who had opened the gate for their ascension and brought them to the Upper Realm…
For various reasons, Jin Bao'er's fame among the dragon race was only slightly less than that of the Dragon Ancestor!
Seeing her in person now, after the initial surprise, they were followed by nervousness and pride! Each giant dragon raised its head high, their eyes eagerly fixed on Jin Bao'er!
Look! This is their Dragon Ancestor's mate! Young, yet she had reached the Heavenly Dao King realm, and brought them back to the Upper Realm; she was their dragon race's pride!
The next second, all the Golden Dragons cried out in unison, their attitude extremely respectful!
"Greetings, Dragon Ancestor's wife!"
The roar of a single Golden Dragon was enough to shatter eardrums, let alone a group of them!?
Jin Bao'er didn't sense any malice. Although she found their gazes excessively fervent, she didn't think much of it. Who knew she was instantly stunned by the piercing pain in her ears, her face turning pale…
"Ming…"
She was in severe pain, her brow furrowed. All she could hear in her ears was a strong ringing! Her slender, delicate body trembled slightly, appearing particularly weak…
The power of the Great Dao spun wildly within her ears. After a long while, her eardrums healed. She finally relaxed her expression and realized that the surroundings were unusually quiet! Looking up, she met a pair of guilty and nervous giant eyes!
Seeing this, even though anger welled up in her heart, she had nowhere to direct it! If she didn't know that dragons were not so complicated, she would definitely suspect their motives!
The first Golden Dragon on the left felt pained: It's all your fault! Why were you so loud? You scared Madam!
The second Golden Dragon retorted: Bah! You were the loud one just now!
