At the same time.
On the shore.
"Mozi, why hasn't Little Dragon Long come up yet?" Dai Xiaomei was so anxious she was about to cry.
"It's been almost two minutes. Do you think Little Dragon Long still doesn't know how to swim!"
Mozi was also a little anxious.
Two minutes wasn't long, but it wasn't short either.
If he didn't come up soon, Ao Yuan would be in even greater danger.
Drip, drip!
Just then, a series of urgent alarms could be heard.
Turning their heads, they saw that the police, fire department, and ambulances had all arrived.
Leading the police was Xie Churan.
"What's the condition of the drowning person?" Xie Churan anxiously asked the surrounding crowd as soon as she arrived.
But to her surprise, everyone around her fell silent.
No one seemed to be in high spirits.
Seeing this, Xie Churan's heart sank.
Looking at the expressions of those around her, she knew the situation was not optimistic!
Just then, Mozi suddenly saw a small head emerge from the turbulent river.
This head belonged to Ao Yuan.
Faintly, one could still see that Ao Yuan was holding onto a graceful figure with his claws.
"Dai Mei, look! What is that!"
Mozi's eyes widened, and she shouted excitedly.
Everyone around was filled with doubt and subconsciously followed the direction of Mozi's finger.
Upon seeing it, they all became excited.
"What kind of creature is that, that it's saving someone!"
"Holy cow, that's amazing! How could someone be rescued from such a turbulent river!"
"What are you waiting for? Don't you know to go and help!"
The people around shouted and started running along the small path towards the lower part of the river.
"It's really Little Dragon Long!" Dai Xiaomei was overjoyed and hugged Mozi tightly, running down with her.
At the same time, she did not forget to aim her camera at Ao Yuan and report the good news to the viewers in the live stream.
"No way, it was actually saved by the nation's guardian beast!"
"Holy cow, that's awesome! It could even save someone from such a turbulent river."
"As expected of a dragon!"
"This is the true totem of our Great Xia!!"

...
For a moment, special effects of gifts flew across the live stream.
However, this was not the end.
"Roar!"
A sudden, faint dragon roar was heard.
Following that!
Ao Yuan seemed to be able to fly. After creating a huge splash in the water, he soared into the air.
"Roar~"
Although the dragon's roar was weak, it struck everyone like a thunderbolt, their hearts pounding and their minds stunned.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still. Everyone involuntarily looked up, their mouths agape, staring at the figure in the sky.
"Dragon!"
"Divine Dragon!"
Many people, looking at the figure in the sky, muttered unconsciously.
In the air, after flying out of the water, Ao Yuan locked onto Dai Xiaomei's figure and headed straight for her.
A moment later, Ao Yuan landed steadily beside Dai Xiaomei.
"Little Dragon Long, you really scared me to death!" Dai Xiaomei's eyes were red. As soon as she saw Ao Yuan, she couldn't help but hug him.
Dai Xiaomei's sobs broke the silence. The people around looked at Dai Xiaomei, Ao Yuan, and the still unconscious girl, and then burst into passionate cheers.
"What's going on? Old woman, can you hold your phone steady? I'm going blind."
"I'm so worried, is Little Dragon Long okay? What about the girl? How is she?"
"Oh, hurry up and pick up the camera so we can see what's happening!"
The netizens in the live stream were impatient, but even though the screen was black, not a single one of them left.
They all wanted to get news about Ao Yuan and the little girl as soon as possible.
And to be honest, seeing how worried Dai Xiaomei was about him.
Ao Yuan felt a little touched.
Although his maid was stupid, couldn't cook, and couldn't provide him with a pillow.
She was still pretty good to him.
However, Ao Yuan didn't admit to this.
Instead, he tilted his head up, his eyes filled with disdain.
"Make way, make way! Let us through to take a look!"
Just then, a shout came from outside.
The people who were cheering involuntarily parted, making way. Everyone knew that rescuing someone from drowning was one thing, but the most important thing was whether they could wake up.
As soon as they cleared a path, several people in white coats rushed in.
Ignoring Ao Yuan beside them, they immediately began treating the still unconscious woman.
"Little Dragon Long, you're alright, that's great!" Dai Xiaomei completely ignored the disdain in Ao Yuan's eyes. After hugging him for a long time and confirming he was fine, she finally stopped crying and smiled.
"Don't be so impulsive again, alright?"
"Do you know how worried I was about you?"
"Uh..." Ao Yuan scratched his paw. He had indeed felt a desire for the river just now and wanted to jump in.
But more importantly, he wanted to save the drowning person.
After all, he was from Great Xia. He couldn't do anything before and could only feel sorrow for the suffering.
Now that he had the ability, he naturally couldn't stand by and watch.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for establishing the image of the Great Xia totem for the first time. Dragon Palace unlock progress increased by 33%.]
[Explanation: The Dragon Palace is the residence of the dragon clan. Dragons residing inside will receive certain enhancements in all aspects. Unlocked at 100% progress.]
Hearing the electronic sound in his mind, Ao Yuan was stunned.
Dragon Palace, Great Xia totem?
And unlock progress...
All of this left Ao Yuan bewildered.
"She's awake! She's awake! The little girl is awake!"
Just then, exclamations came from the side. Ao Yuan turned his head and saw that the girl he had rescued had woken up.
Seeing this, Ao Yuan slowly regained his senses, and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.
The Dragon Palace unlock progress, although Ao Yuan felt it was a bit of a scam, like a gacha system from some game.
But no matter what, it was an unexpected surprise for Ao Yuan.
"She's awake, that's great!"
Dai Xiaomei also saw this. Seeing the little girl who had woken up, she was overjoyed and remembered that she was still live-streaming.
Immediately, she took out her phone, pointed it at the little girl, and smiled, "Brothers, Little Dragon Long is fine, and the little girl he saved has also woken up."
"I was so worried, the weight on my heart has finally been lifted."
"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright."
"Speaking of which, did anyone record the screen? The nation's guardian beast was so cool just now."
"I think so too, my heavens, it flew into the sky! This is truly our Great Xia divine dragon!"
"Brothers, I've recorded it. I'll post it on Douyin later."
"Guardian beast, you've worked hard. Old woman, remember to buy some good food for the guardian beast later."
As this comment appeared, gifts with special effects began to flood the live stream one after another.
