In the Great Array, red twilight surged.
Hong Ying’s size shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Finally, the red twilight dissipated, and a charming girl in red appeared.
Hong Ying was very beautiful, with a slender figure, a round face, large eyes, and skin as white as snow. She wore a fitted red dress, and her long hair was a striking blue, billowing like waves. However, there were small, forked dragon horns on her forehead.
Lang Ya’s eyes were mesmerized, filled with excitement.
Hong Ying’s big eyes were also full of excitement and tears, staring intently at Lang Ya.
"It’s so good to see you’re still alive."
"It’s so good to see you’re still alive."
They said in unison.
They were slightly startled, then broke into a gentle smile.
Meeting a childhood friend after a thousand years was one of life’s great joys.
Hong Ying’s face was overly pale; her injuries were not yet healed. She was seriously wounded and would not recover soon.
Lang Ya, after being rescued by Qin Yi, also took a long time to heal.
"Lang Ya, how did you survive?"
Lang Ya recounted his ordeal to Hong Ying.
Qin Yi gestured, and Yin Qianqian and Yun Mengyao understood. The three quietly left, giving Lang Ya and Hong Ying time alone. After a separation of a thousand years, they surely had much to say.
The three wandered idly along the Dragon Road.
Yun Mengyao laughed, "Hong Ying is really beautiful, no wonder Lang Ya is so excited."
"Shallow!" Qin Yi glanced at him disdainfully, "Do you think my little brother is the kind who only looks at appearances? He, like me, possesses noble qualities and cares about inner beauty."
Yin Qianqian and Yun Mengyao exchanged a glance and simultaneously scoffed at Qin Yi’s shamelessness.
Yun Mengyao sneered, "Stop flattering yourself. If you paste it crooked, it’s a face full of shit. You men dare to talk about inner beauty, as if you can see it. Aren’t you just drawn to beauty and forget righteousness?"
Yin Qianqian nodded in agreement with Yun Mengyao’s words.
Qin Yi said solemnly, "This is your prejudice against men. Beautiful looks are common, but an interesting soul is one in a million. We focus more on inner beauty."
"Pah, do you believe that yourself? If Bingbing was unattractive, not even a pig would take interest, and you’d forget her as soon as you could. Even a child from the Primordial would be fetching soy sauce."
"And Lang Ya, liking the Medusa Queen back then, do you men have a special function to see if this woman has an interesting soul without saying a word?"
Qin Yi: "..."
Damn, he was speechless. Lang Ya, this useless guy, indeed disgraced men.
Yun Mengyao shook her head and said, "That’s why love at first sight is all a lie. It’s not about love, it’s about the face. All love at first sight is driven by lust."
Qin Yi was at a loss for words, and after a long silence, he said, "It’s like you women aren’t lustful."
Yin Qianqian laughed, "I admit we are lustful, for instance, I crave your body, I’ve never hidden that. Unlike you men who are so fake."
Qin Yi pursed his lips, unable to retort.
As the three of them were chatting away, Lang Ya came over with Hong Ying.
Lang Ya introduced Qin Yi to Hong Ying, "This is my big brother; he saved me, and he saved you too."
Hong Ying bowed gracefully and said gratefully, "Thank you, Young Master Qin, for saving my life. Your kindness is unforgettable."
"Miss Hong Ying, there’s no need for such courtesy. Since you are Little Wolf’s kin, there’s no need to be so formal with me."
"Little Wolf?" Hong Ying was slightly taken aback.
Lang Ya smiled awkwardly, "That’s me."
Hong Ying smiled gently but said nothing more.
Lang Ya then introduced Yun Mengyao and Yin Qianqian to Hong Ying.
"Miss Hong Ying is not yet fully healed, take these, they’ll help with your injuries."
Qin Yi generously offered her some herbs and Spirit Stones.
"Young Master Qin is my savior, just call me Hong Ying. I won’t stand on ceremony with your kind offer." Hong Ying accepted the herbs and Spirit Stones gracefully.
Lang Ya said, "Big brother, you guessed right. Hong Ying managed to escape from Dragon Island, but was captured again two hundred years ago and kept in the Dragon Emperor Cave."
Qin Yi nodded slightly; he had guessed it long ago since Hong Ying’s injuries were much lighter than Lang Ya’s.
Hong Ying gritted her teeth and said, "Once I recover, I must attack the Netherworld Clan and avenge my kin."
Qin Yi was amused; this little dragoness had quite the temper.
Qin Yi teased, "Hong Ying, what’s your relationship with Lang Ya?"
Hong Ying was slightly startled, then said openly, "We were childhood playmates. But now that the Dragon Clan is down to just the two of us, he will be my man in the future."
"Ahem..." Qin Yi almost choked on his own saliva. He had meant it as a joke, not expecting the girl to be so straightforward.
Lang Ya scratched his head in excitement and embarrassment.
Yun Mengyao teased, "Lang Ya, you seem a bit unwilling, are you rejecting Miss Hong Ying?"
Lang Ya waved his hands hastily, "No, no, as long as Hong Ying doesn’t reject me. Uh... let’s not talk about this now. Hong Ying needs to recover, and during this time, I plan to enter the Blood Pool with big brother to bathe in Dragon Blood."
"The stronger our cultivation, the better our chances of revenge."
Hong Ying said, "It’s impossible. The Dragon Blood is too potent; the human physique can’t withstand it. Just one drop can ignite your internal organs, a fate worse than death."
Lang Ya smiled, "Don’t worry! Big brother’s physical strength is no less than ours in the Dragon Clan. Otherwise, do you think I would randomly choose someone as a big brother?"
Hong Ying scrutinized Qin Yi, "Forgive me for being blunt, Young Master Qin looks delicate; is his physical strength really as strong as Lang Ya says?"
Yin Qianqian and Yun Mengyao laughed softly, agreeing with Hong Ying’s assessment of Qin Yi.
Qin Yi raised an eyebrow; the girl’s emotional intelligence seemed a bit low.
Lang Ya smiled, "Hong Ying, you just focus on recovering. Big brother can handle it, don’t worry."
Hong Ying nodded slightly, then touched her dragon horns, "So annoying, my dragon horns won’t disappear."
Actually, Qin Yi wanted to ask this, but Hong Ying brought it up herself.
Lang Ya said, "You don’t have enough cultivation yet. Once it’s sufficient, you’ll be able to hide them."
Hong Ying was disheartened, "Why must I be a Red Dragon? I wish I were a Black Dragon."
Qin Yi asked curiously, "Is there something special about that?"
Hong Ying said, "Red Dragons are the weakest of the Dragon Clan, while Black Dragons are the strongest in combat and the most gifted. My talents aren’t even as good as Lang Ya’s, my cultivation isn’t as high, so I still can’t hide my dragon horns."
Lang Ya was a bit embarrassed. What did it mean to say her talent wasn’t as good as his? The Azure Dragon might be at the bottom in Dragon Clan combat power, but his talent wasn’t that much worse than the Black Dragon’s, was it?
