That small shell, though seemingly unremarkable, made careful observers gasp in unison!
The aura of the Great Dao's power!!
Rare indeed, let alone five appearing at once.
Jin Lingdang and Hu Qi, as new companions, though unaware of the full situation, felt that Ancestor Long had acted poorly. How could such a cute little girl suffer such hardship.
Zhan Hun also gently curved its handle, offering quiet comfort.
Jin Bao'er, despite seeing through the girl's semi-performance, had a general understanding of what had happened and couldn't help but feel sympathetic, coaxing her.
"Alright, Bao'er is right, he's bad! We won't pay attention to him anymore!"
Long Lixing: !!!
The young man beside them was also stunned! He never expected that the aloof and powerful immortal maiden possessed such a loving side.
Finally, the group returned to the Dragon Clan in grand fashion!
Seeing the young man reminded Jin Bao'er of the little dragon person she hadn't seen in years! The maiden who possessed Long Lixing's vital essence!
The Dragon Clan...
Years ago, a phoenix brought a little girl with heterochromia to the Dragon Clan, insisting she might be one of their own! The presence of their Ancestor's vital essence on her made the dragons, though skeptical, feel compelled to accept her!
After a period, the little girl indeed grew dragon horns! And a few black dragon scales appeared by her ears…
This sight truly astonished the dragons! Coupled with her increasingly dragon-like habits, they grew even fonder of her!
One day, the little bun squatted aside, listening with great curiosity as the Blue Dragon Patriarch discussed celestial anomalies and ascensions with other dragons! Then, news arrived from the Golden Dragon Clan: Ancestor Long had returned. m..oΓg
She was surprised and expectant! Everyone had told her she was Ancestor Long's child, and she had even begun to believe it herself!
Until this moment, when the cold, handsome man, as divine as a deity, appeared not far away. She was utterly shocked! Somewhat bewildered, nervous yet adoring! Was this person… truly her father?
The eleven-year-old maiden stood frozen, looking at the handsome man and beautiful woman before her, a mixture of trepidation and excitement!
Then, a refined young man walked over, looking at her with excitement, his expression even more nervous than hers!
"Bao... Bao'er!"
The familiar tone and aura stunned the maiden! She murmured tentatively.
"Brother... Brother?"
In an instant, the young man embraced her with emotion, pouring out years of longing and perseverance! The siblings then dissolved into tears.
Jin Bao'er stood there expressionlessly, her heart calm! Long Lixing's thousand years of waiting were absolutely worthy of her trust! Then this child was not Long Lixing's offspring!
The moment Long Lixing saw Bao'er, he had examined her with his divine sense, especially the vital essence he carried on her neck! His brow furrowed slightly…
He was powerful! Arguably the most powerful being in this world!
No one could steal his vital essence without him noticing! Yet, the vital essence genuinely existed…
He fell silent for a moment, his mind rapidly searching, replaying countless scenes from his existence. Finally, he focused on a specific event! His expression complex, he said.
"I have only lost my vital essence once in this lifetime!"
With that, he looked at Jin Bao'er, noticing the astonishment and seriousness in her eyes! It finally turned into shock, and he nodded resignedly!
"Except for a certain woman tens of thousands of years ago who demanded my vital essence, forcing me to fuse it! If memory serves, you also bled on that thing that time…"
The first half of Jin Bao'er found unbelievable, while the latter half directly jolted her awake! Realizing the implication, she instinctively asked.
"But… it wasn't me then!"
The body was Little White Dragon's, and the blood was Little White Dragon's! Only the soul… so, this girl was Long Lixing's and Little White Dragon's?!
Long Lixing, by merely observing her expression, could almost guess her thoughts. He couldn't help but laugh out loud! The coldness dissipated, his exquisitely handsome face radiating brilliance! His purple eyes, rarely filled with amusement, responded only when someone looked displeased.
"That was a Soul Stone, it only accepts the primal power of living beings! Child… she is ours!"
Jin Bao'er's mind went blank, her breath caught! Recalling the events that had transpired and that strange feeling of heartache! She suddenly understood. If that were the case! Was this her child? Was that why she felt so peculiar?
For a moment, she looked at the maiden with complex emotions, a heaven-sent daughter, she was a bit bewildered!
Hearing Long Lixing's words, though a little confused, the maiden gradually understood that she seemed to be the child of the man and woman before her. Her heart began to pound!
In recent years, her time in the Dragon Clan had given her a clearer understanding of the world. Ancestor Long, a legendary figure, was someone she dared not even dream of!
And that stunningly beautiful, aloof immortal maiden was also an unfathomably strong existence. Even though she felt an urge to approach her warmly, she harbored deep inferiority and insecurity…
However… just now! They had acknowledged her! She was their daughter!!
A sense of dizziness washed over her, filled with the ecstatic joy of being favored by the heavens! She had parents, and they were such top-tier powerhouses, unmatched in appearance, strength, and status in this world!
Was this a dream?! She didn't want to wake up!!
The young man was also shocked. The incredibly beautiful immortal maiden had aided him then, and he was immensely grateful, yet also puzzled! After all, there were many unfortunate children in the Upper Realm; she, so aloof, had only helped him and his sister…
Now it seemed, was this not a natural maternal connection?
Jin Huang, after a moment of surprise, accepted the fact and beamed with joy! She had a little master, and she was indeed a little dragon person!
Zhan Hun, Tian Shu, Jin Lingdang, Fen Bei, and Hu Qi were stunned at first, then looked on in disbelief: Oh… huh?!
After her initial complexity, Jin Bao'er walked forward step by step, Long Lixing following closely behind. He didn't feel particularly strongly about it, as she wasn't born from flesh and blood. The little girl was essentially a Soul Stone body! She had merely acquired their vital essence and soul power!
However, he didn't intend to tell Jin Bao'er.
The young man silently made way, watching the mother and daughter reunite, his heart filled with emotion! How fate played tricks!
The maiden looked up at the breathtakingly beautiful face before her, her eyes clearly showing surprise and nervousness, but more so, inferiority…
Her mother was so beautiful~ Unlike her, ordinary and insignificant.
Jin Bao'er, however, thought differently! Looking at the slender, sallow-skinned, ordinary girl, she could faintly discern features similar to her own. In her large, clear black and white eyes was an eagerness to please, filled with caution…
She sighed, her heart softening.
"I'm sorry!"
Sorry for letting you suffer so much!
She was inherently cold-hearted, never imagining she would have such a moment! Perhaps one day she and Long Lixing would have their own child, but this girl…
"Mother~"
