Stegosaurus slowed down.
It was as slow as a small boat drifting along the river.
Luckily, they had already seen the Mighty Sacred Torch Dragon. To Zhu Minglang's surprise, the Mighty Sacred Torch Dragon seemed to be injured. Many of its purple glowing scales were cracked, and one of its teeth was broken. When it opened its mouth, they could see the blood inside.
The Mighty Sacred Torch Dragon glanced at Zhu Minglang and saw Zhu Minglang and Stegosaurus.
The Little Sacred Torch Dragon was beside it. It seemed to have told the Mighty Sacred Torch Dragon that the Cloud Platform Mother Tree's Holy Fruit had been stolen by this cunning human.
The Mighty Sacred Torch Dragon glared at the human, but it took a deep look into the dark clouds and decided to return home.
The injury wasn't serious, but it looked painful. The Mighty Sacred Torch Dragon was obviously unwilling to give up.
Zhu Minglang was a little surprised. He stared at the dark clouds.
Not long after, Nan Lingsha walked out with a Chi Dragon by her side.
The Chi Dragon was slender and elegant. It had no scales and was as smooth as jade.
The Chi Dragon didn't have horns or claws. Its tail was thin and soft, covered with a layer of delicate silver-gray fur.
Its cheeks were as small as a pretty girl's, and its eyes were long and narrow like a fox's. Even though it was quietly following Nan Lingsha, it still gave off a sense of beauty and elegance. At the same time, it also had a hint of charm.
Dragons had their own auras too.
Noble, cold and arrogant, free and easy, lively, mighty, ferocious, sinister, strange ….
However, it was Zhu Minglang's first time seeing a dragon with such a charming aura.
"The Mighty Sacred Torch Dragon is stronger than the female Sacred Torch Dragon," Zhu Minglang observed Nan Lingsha and the Chi Dragon beside her.
"Did you get the Holy Fruit?" Nan Lingsha asked.
"Of course. Four Holy Fruits, two for each of us, "Zhu Minglang smiled and began to divide the spoils.
"I only need one. I'll give the rest to Bai Qi as a snack." Nan Lingsha only took one sacred fruit and handed it to the Chi Dragon beside her.
The Hornless Dragon opened its mouth gracefully and chewed slowly. It was a completely different species from the Tyrannosaurus rex.
…
As they walked back, the other dragons also came to welcome them.
The three Holy Candle Dragons must have known that they were on the same side. If they stayed near the Cloud Platform Mother Tree, they could take care of each other and protect the fruits.
But if they were separated, the fruits would fall into the hands of others. If they fought to the death, they would lose the remaining three holy fruits and the right to rest on the cloud platform mother tree.
Obviously, they wouldn't chase after him anymore.
"Hornless Kiss?" Mr. Koi immediately recognized the silver-gray hornless dragon beside Nan Lingsha.
Zhu Minglang immediately pricked up his ears, intending to listen to the origin of this Chi's Kiss.
"Mr. Koi, I would like to ask you a few questions." Zhu Minglang saw Nan Lingsha walking in front, so he slowed down a little.
"Hornless Kiss is the daughter of the Ancestor Dragon. Only hornless dragons with the most orthodox bloodline are called Hornless Kisses. This girl is not simple," Mr. Koi whispered to Zhu Minglang.
"The descendant of the Ancestor Dragon?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"You have to trace it back to the Ancestor Dragon's era. You said that you went to the land of Li Chuan in the Ancestor Dragon City. The walls of the city were made of the bones of the Ancestor Dragon. I thought Ancestor Dragon City was just a name. I didn't think Ancestor Dragon City actually had relics of the Ancestor Dragon," Mr. Koi said.
"My father also said that there are ancient ruins there. Furthermore, the teachers of some large factions seem to know about this matter. That's why they are so eager to have the authority to oversee Ancestral Dragon City State," said Zhu Minglang.
"She has never shown herself before. She must be wary of the people of the Polar Court Continent," Mr. Koi said.
"Mr. Koi, do you know about Shen Ji?" Zhu Minglang suddenly remembered this. He looked at Nan Lingsha's back and asked.
"In the wild, the human tribes were weak. It was difficult for them to survive, so they worshipped the Ancestor Dragon. There was a woman who worshipped the Ancestor Dragon. She was the first to discover that the Ancestor Dragon's soul could fuse with human souls. Because of her discovery, many dragon herders were born. That woman was also called Shen Ji, "Mr. Koi said.
"Then …" Zhu Minglang looked shocked.
"Is she the descendant of Shen Ji? The descendant of the Ancestor Dragon is called the Ancestor Dragon. The Ancestor Dragon is very difficult to tame, especially the orthodox ones. Most dragon herders can't control them, except for that woman called Shen Ji. Her Hornless Kiss definitely has the blood of the Ancestor Dragon, "Mr. Koi said.
Zhu Minglang was lost in thought.
He thought back to when the Polar Court Continent had just fallen. The Li Family's old grandmother couldn't wait to marry Nan Lingsha.
There was no way the old grandmother didn't know about him and Li Yunzi.
Even if they were the Twin Flower Sisters, it would be ridiculous for the younger sister to marry him first.
Nan Lingsha would rather die than obey, but the old grandmother still let her join her team of dragon herders in the end. It was as if she didn't want Nan Lingsha to stay in the Ancestor Dragon City.
"Nan Lingsha." Zhu Minglang quickly walked up and stopped her.
Nan Lingsha didn't turn back. She stopped in her tracks and her clear and charming eyes were filled with dissatisfaction as she stared at Zhu Minglang.
Zhu Minglang scratched his head.
Did he offend her?
Why did she look like that?
"Have you ever thought that the old grandmother asked you to follow me to protect you?" Zhu Minglang said.
"I don't know what you mean," Nan Lingsha said.
"You're the so-called ancient relic because you have the Ancestor Dragon," Zhu Minglang said seriously.
Nan Lingsha glanced at the Hornless Kiss, then at Zhu Minglang.
If the continents, lands, and barren lands of this world were all broken, floating, and connected in an unknown period of time …
Then before the Li Chuan Continent was surrounded by the Sea of Nothingness, just which continent was it connected to?
Could it be that the Li Chuan Continent was also like the Wasteland, falling from a larger world and drifting in the vast universe like a floating island?
So the Li Chuan land might be even older than the Polar Court Continent.
This would also explain why there were ancient relics in the Li Chuan land.
Ancestral Dragon City …
It wasn't just a name.
It might have been an ancestral city that was even more prosperous than the current Polar Court Dynasty.
But because the land was isolated, broken, or sealed off by the Void Ocean, the entire Li Chuan land slowly declined. It was far inferior to the Polar Court Continent.
"The old grandmother only told me not to summon dragons easily," Nan Lingsha said.
"How would you know that the Ancestor Dragon is special if you haven't seen other continents? Seems like the old grandmother still has a lot to tell us," Zhu Minglang said.
"Do you think the old grandmother came from the Polar Court Continent like Dean Duan?" Nan Lingsha asked.
"Not necessarily the Polar Court Continent …" Zhu Minglang said.
