The outer scales of dragons were very hard. They did not like soft things as nests. Instead, they liked hard gold and diamonds that would not be crushed. Gold and diamonds were their most comfortable beds. Moreover, gold and diamonds could polish their dragon scales, making them stronger and brighter.
Being strong was to maintain an indestructible body in battle.
Being bright was to attract the opposite sex. It was the same reason why people liked to wear all kinds of beautiful clothes.
It was absolutely true that the dragon's cave was the richest.
"It's almost winter. This dragon should be looking for food everywhere and hoarding winter food."
"Then we'll wait. When it leaves, we'll empty the dragon's cave treasury!"
Zhu Minglang looked at the group of Cliff Eagles. He suddenly felt that they were a group of beautiful guiding fairies. Their dirty gray-brown feathers and pointed faces were particularly cute … Eat slowly, eat slowly, don't choke to death.
"We're going to spend money." Zhu Minglang could not hide the joy in his heart.
Finally, he could get rich overnight!
Zhu Minglang kissed Little Bai Qi. He chose a safe place and planned to stay in the cave for the time being.
When the dragon above his head left, he would make his move!
As soon as Little Bai Qi heard that he was going to steal something, its little eyes became excited. It was more excited than when it found a well-matched opponent.
This kind of thing was very strange. Defeating the dragon fair and square and then taking its things was actually the same.
However, if he stole the treasure without much effort when the dragon was guarding it, and then ran away, looking at the dragon's flustered and exasperated expression, he suddenly felt that the value of the treasure was more than one level higher!
He had done this kind of thing many times before, but his happiness had never decreased!
Zhu Minglang looked at Little Bai Qi's clear eyes and suddenly became sneaky. She was intelligent, but why did she have the cunning of a little fox?
Zhu Minglang could not help but fall into a short contemplation …
It was said that the nature of a dragon was very similar to that of its master. Could Little Bai Qi's temperament be my problem?
… …
A qualified hunter needed patience. Zhu Minglang still had some dried meat with him. He planned to waste time with the dragon above his head.
Blackfang had just eaten his fill and could last for many days.
Little Bai Qi always carried its nectar with it, so it definitely wouldn't go hungry.
At night, the dragon did not move. It seemed that it had just returned from the outside when Zhu Minglang entered the cave. However, Zhu Minglang did not hear the sound of chewing from above.
The larger a creature was, the greater its appetite. They had to maintain the body's calories. If there was nothing in their stomach, they would be constantly consuming their body's energy reserves. That was equivalent to constantly reducing their strength and stamina. If they encountered a stronger predator, they wouldn't even have the strength to escape.
Zhu Minglang firmly believed that even if the dragon had just eaten its fill, it would hunt for food in a few days. Moreover, winter was just around the corner. Everything was sleeping, and predators were the most anxious!
Two days.
Three days.
On the fourth day, the unkempt Zhu Minglang finally heard the commotion on the Dragon Cliff!
"Whoosh!!!"
That was the sound of fleshy wings flapping. Zhu Minglang looked up from the crack and saw a huge dragon covered in moss scales gradually rising into the air. Its wings were as big as pine tree crowns. The shadow of its wings made people feel a sense of terror …
It was a forest dragon!
And it was obviously an adult. The aura it exuded was much stronger than Blackfang's!
Zhu Minglang could not judge its strength.
Mature and mature creatures were very similar. If the forest dragon was in its mature stage, even Bingchen Bailong might not be able to subdue it!
It was wise not to use brute force.
Zhu Minglang began to act.
He had not been waiting for the past few days. He had already figured out the habits of the guardian beasts of the treasure vault, the cliff vultures. Zhu Minglang easily went around the group of cliff vultures and immediately went into the depths of the cliff cave.
The depths of the cliff cave led upwards. It was obviously connected to the top of the cliff. Zhu Minglang walked up and soon saw a large amount of light shining down from above. It was like a giant spear piercing through the darkness of the cliff cave.
Zhu Minglang walked over and found that there were cliff vultures patrolling above and in the direction he came from. After the forest dragon left, the cliff vultures became more vigilant. Unfortunately, they did not expect someone to be hiding inside.
There was almost no defense inside. Zhu Minglang walked to the place where the light was pouring down. He found that it was a dragon's nest that was chiseled from the top of the cliff.
The size of the dragon's nest was around the size of a house. It was covered in gold, silver, and jewels. The slanted sunlight only shone on a small part of it, yet it was already dazzling!
Zhu Minglang's eyes widened when he saw the red agates, white gold, orange gold, and emeralds!
No wonder the forest dragon liked to collect them. It was the most beautiful sight in the world when they were stacked together and allowed to emit their brilliance!
This forest dragon was also the cutest little fairy in the world.
"Bai Qi, do you still know how to use that move?" Zhu Minglang asked in a hurry.
How could Whitey nod its head like it was pounding garlic? It excitedly raised its long tail, and that tail began to stir in the air, like the ripples of a whirlpool …
The long tail swung faster and faster, and a strong but silent suction force appeared in the dragon's nest. The pitiful jewelry on the ground jumped up on their own and flew into the whirlpool formed by Little Bai Qi's tail like swallows returning to their nest.
He remembered that in the past, Little Bai Qi's move was used to absorb the enemy's Xuan technique. It could even be used to repel the enemy's Xuan technique. However, he didn't know when this move started to change!
"Little Bai Qi, you're too realistic. Although I lost the Azure Dragon Profound Technique, I didn't forget this stealing technique." Zhu Minglang was very pleased to see Little Bai Qi's skillful operation.
It didn't take long for all the treasures in the lair to be stored in Little Bai Qi's Qiankun Concealment Technique. Little Bai Qi also looked full.
Not intending to stay any longer, Zhu Minglang and Bai Qi immediately slipped away.
"Yiyi!!!!!!"
The cries came from behind, and they were all mixed together in an ear-piercing manner.
Zhu Minglang quickly went into hiding, thinking they had been discovered.
A moment later, the cries echoed in the cave again. It seemed like a huge flock of Cliff Vultures had returned. They were increasing their vigilance when the forest dragons left the lair.
They still did not check the dim and empty lair. Zhu Minglang let out a sigh of relief.
It would be great if they could leave without anyone knowing!
"I don't think we can leave this place. Let's climb out of here." Zhu Minglang realized that the cave they came from was already full of Cliff Vultures. He decided to leave from the top of the cliff. The plants on the cliff should be able to hide from the Cliff Vultures that were patrolling the area.
Zhu Minglang was extremely careful as he climbed up the Dragon Pit. Little Bai Qi was also trying to control the Wind Magic around the cliff to disrupt the patrolling Cliff Vultures.
When he reached the top of the cliff, the top was covered with a thick layer of soft vines. Zhu Minglang poked his head out and when he realized that there was nothing up there, he immediately jumped out of the dragon pit and hid under an old tree that was covered with branches.
There were many cliff vultures in the sky. How could Little White still control the wind? He had to wait for the strong wind to force the patrolling cliff vultures to hide in the pine trees before Zhu Minglang could leave. Otherwise, the cliff vultures would definitely chase him all the way until the forest dragon also came.
Quietly waiting for an opportunity, Zhu Minglang's gaze could not help but look at those soft vines. He realized that those dry vines did not seem to be growing freely. Instead, they were broken and piled up, encircled into a large grass nest.
A thought flashed across Zhu Minglang's mind when he saw the nest of vines.
Zhu Minglang took a step back and hid behind a tree. At that moment, a huge head poked out from the nest of vines. It had light green skin, snake-like eyes, large nostrils, and slightly protruding dragon horns!
He slowly raised his head and looked at the pine tree that was swaying violently in the wind.
A baby dragon??
Zhu Minglang was surprised.
No wonder the forest dragons were always at the top of the cliff. It turned out that there was a nest hidden there for the baby dragons that had yet to grow hard scales!
The baby dragon did not notice Zhu Minglang. It was only looking around curiously.
The baby dragon seemed to have realized that its mother dragon had left. It suddenly let out a joyful cry. It picked up something with its mouth and climbed out of the cliff …
Zhu Minglang took a closer look and realized that the baby dragon was holding an even smaller baby dragon in its mouth!
There were some injuries on the baby dragon that was being held in its mouth. It was obviously caused not long ago.
The baby dragon that was its older brother sped up after leaving the nest of vines.
When it reached the edge of the cliff, the baby dragon began to struggle and let out a tragic cry as if it was begging for something.
Unfortunately, the Elder Brother Dragon Whelp was not moved at all. It took another bite on the Dragon Whelp's body and threw the Dragon Whelp away!
The baby dragon did not even have the chance to develop its wings and fell straight down. Its shrill and terrified cry immediately echoed around the cliff.
Zhu Minglang was stunned.
This was definitely not an older brother teaching its younger brother to fly.
The bigger Dragon Whelp had taken advantage of the absence of the Dragon Mother to throw its younger brother down the cliff!!
It was said that the blood of dragons was as hot as magma, but their temperament was as cold as a snake. Zhu Minglang finally saw it for himself today.
Although becoming a dragon was beyond the mortal world, dragons still followed the cruel laws of this world.
Dragons were powerful and could easily kill tigers and wild cows. However, at the level of dragons, ordinary wild animals could not satisfy them at all.
If the food was not what their bodies needed, even if they ate a sheep or a cow, it would be the same as people chewing grass and tree bark.
They needed to kill certain monsters, and monsters had a certain level of wisdom and survival skills. If they wanted to hide, even dragons would have a hard time finding them!
Food that could replenish their physical strength and recover their magic was always in short supply!
Some underdeveloped dragons might even become the prey of certain Demon Spirits.
In order to allow it to grow independently, the bigger Dragon Whelp often bit the younger Dragon Whelps and completely exposed its true nature before winter!
In the past, Zhu Minglang also heard some rumors about dragons killing each other in their nests. However, he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes today!
