Starting with watering the World Tree for otherworldly survival

Page 190

It's time for Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling, who possess multiple attributes of Dragon Origin Battle Qi, to demonstrate the power they now have.

By drawing energy from the Dragon Transformation Source Crystal, the strength of his battle qi, which was originally at the lower level of the third rank, immediately surged!

"Eighth-tier lower level? How is that possible... How could your battle qi, which is only at the third-tier lower level, have increased so much? Everyone... come to my side!"

Janet Sanjay, who had been leisurely sipping red wine after putting away the dragon egg, was immediately horrified when she saw the two men's power surge.

"To deal with guys like you, there's really no need to upgrade that much. A lower-tier fifth rank would be enough for me to tear you, City Lord, to shreds."

Before the battle even began, all the mercenaries felt a chill run down their spines after witnessing Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling's genuine eighth-tier lower-level battle aura.

A mysterious dragon's might emanated from it along with the Dragon Origin Battle Qi!

Although they were somewhat reluctant to kill, Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling would not let their enemies go unpunished.

With a swift step, Qin Xinru, whose strength had stabilized at the lower fifth rank, threw out the flying insect and leaped onto the magic crystal chandelier at the top of the hall.

"go with!"

Using her Dragon Source Battle Qi, Qin Xinru could even draw upon the surging electrical energy within the Qilin Suit. Her long boots, which clung to her shapely legs, slammed down!

The magnificent magic crystal chandelier was swung by Qin Xinru and smashed towards the mercenaries. Several knights dressed in full armor were immediately blasted away by the force.

"Beat her! Blow her down!"

Commanding the mercenaries and hunter apprentices, they unleashed a barrage of arrows and crossbow bolts at Qin Xinru, who was suspended in mid-air by a flying insect.

But it was no use! All the attacks were blocked by the invisible barrier before they could even touch Qin Xinru, unable to advance an inch.

"Lord of the city, where are you looking?"

Seeing this, Zhong Xiling naturally didn't want to fall behind. Using the Dragon Source Battle Qi, they gained the ability to fly freely like dragons—

Even without wings or flying insects, Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling could float and fly, making it completely difficult for the mercenaries to catch their figures.

"Where are the mercenaries who subdued the dragon? Quick! Bring them back immediately!"

Janet tried to issue a transfer order, but it was too late. Zhong Xiling simply brandished her twin Qilin swords and slashed through the crowd.

The aerial spinning and chaotic dance involves slashing at the torso of a giant enemy, using the momentum to spin and slash again.

But Zhong Xiling could now fly on her own, and she flew straight over, knocking away the weapons in the hands of the mercenaries, and arrived in front of Janet.

"stop."

A powerful woman dressed as a maid suddenly made a move, overturning the dining table. This immediately halted Zhong Xiling's attack.

"Oh? Aunt Zhong, you need to be careful. This is probably a powerful person disguised as a maid, hired to protect the city lord's life."

At the peak of the seventh rank, the woman in the maid outfit before Zhong Xiling revealed her true form—a burly female warrior carrying a long sword.

"Don't worry~ She can't hurt me."

Indeed, she possessed an invincible aura, thanks to Nidhogg's protective barrier. Even if this peak seventh-tier expert were to hack at her for a lifetime, Zhong Xiling would not be shaken in the slightest.

Summoning her Flying Dragon Blade, Zhong Xiling didn't bother with any air blades or techniques. She planned to engage the peak seventh-tier mercenary in front of her in a direct sword fight.

Completely haphazard, the mercenaries instinctively tried to block the Flying Dragon Blade in Zhong Xiling's hand. But Zhong Xiling attacked without any predictable strategy!

His sword couldn't hurt her, but Zhong Xiling's knife could easily pierce through the mercenary's armor with a casual swing.

Zhong Xiling was furious at the city lord's scheming nature. Even if it meant unleashing a bloodbath, she would make the city lord pay the price today.

Right now, only war can vent my pent-up anger.

Faced with this cold, unpredictable blade of light that moved swiftly and unpredictably, the mercenary dared not be careless in the slightest.

The moment the swords clashed, dragon fire ignited. Amidst the resounding clang of metal, the mercenary's sword-wielding hand quickly began to ache. The immense power brought by the Dragon Origin Battle Qi was something no ordinary person could withstand.

It turns out that Zhong Xiling and Qin Xinru were not without skills. The battle qi techniques given by Nidhogg all had corresponding combat skills that could be practiced.

They were by no means "naive novices". Their random slashing was just a ploy to make the mercenaries lower their guard.

Therefore, even with various magical amulets protecting her, Janet was still restless.

Taking this opportunity, Zhong Xiling used a feint to attack Janet with her knife.

In a flash, the chaotic light of swords and blades burst forth around Janet's bulky body.

Every clash of swords symbolized the mercenaries' inability to stop Zhong Xiling from breaking through Janet's magical amulet defense! The scorching hot dragon blade seemed to be trying to boil the greedy city lord into fat with dragon flames.

Janet was terrified as she realized that the layers of defense of her magical amulet were being gradually broken down.

"Idiots! They're all idiots!"

Janet wanted to retrieve her ultimate weapon from her storage necklace.

Eighth-tier mid-level magical firearm - "Azure Lightning".

This is a magically powered gun with a sharp bayonet structure, capable of unleashing powerful blue lightning. With it, Janet has a way to save her life.

"Damn it... Die! Die!"

Janet was jolted awake by the scene she had just witnessed, randomly pulling triggers in the hall. She had a premonition that she had to kill all the enemies before the magical amulet was completely torn apart!

As expected, the result was not good. Wearing the Odogaron armor set crafted from master-level materials, Volper had no chance of being injured by the Blue Lightning.

Needless to say, Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling only saw mercenaries kneeling on the ground under the fierce electric light surging from the blue lightning.

"Lord, why are you afraid? Aren't we the sinners you described, the ones who slaughtered the Golden Dragon?"

Zhong Xiling stepped over the defeated mercenary, slamming the burly woman's head into the shattered paving stones. With a flick of her Flying Dragon Blade, the hand that had been frantically pulling the trigger could no longer grip the magical firearm.

Qingdian was thrown into the air, and Zhong Xiling directly stored it in her spatial scale.

Looking back inside, the mercenaries were all unconscious from their injuries. Controlling their strength, the two of them and the dragon managed to avoid killing any of the enemy mercenaries.

Of course, this was mainly thanks to the foolish city lord who pulled out the Azure Lightning and fired. Now, the only one still standing is Eve, protected by some kind of force.

"You're lucky! It's Jinlong, her lucky little gem saved you."

Ulu, considering the girl might be in danger, cast a protective spell on the gem.

On a wall covered with spiderweb-like cracks, you can see the hunter in the Rathian armor set slumped down after being blasted.

The hunter, whose head had been repeatedly slammed against the wall by Volper, was no longer able to fight.

"Mistress, show this little girl the communication device. Let His Majesty the Dragon Emperor show her the golden dragon."

Seeing this, Qin Xinru immediately approached with her magic communication terminal and projected the image—

"It's...it's Her Highness the Golden Dragon, she's alive?"

In the projected image, Ulu was lazily lying in a pile of treasure, her wing membranes spread out.

The enormous golden dragon's body was much more magnificent than when it was seen in the jungle.

"Oh? It's her, the human girl!"

Ulu didn't even know Eve's name, and the young knight's appearance was really nothing special; she had almost forgotten about her.

“Brave little adventurer, look. I’m alright now, don’t worry about me~ You knew I was safe from Pale Moon City, right?”

Having just been taken in by Qin He to live here, unaware that Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling had fallen victim to the city lord's greedy scheme, Wu Lu directly stated:

"I'm already a powerful, atavistic golden dragon! Even if that purple dragon reappears, I can fight her to a standstill!"

Seeing this, Volper approached and asked:

"Really? Jinlong, I didn't realize you were that capable."

Upon seeing the person in question, Wu Lu immediately tensed up. However, she was right beside Qin He himself; with the support this purple dragon could provide, how could she possibly lack it?

"Hmph... Volper, you're stronger now. But after His Highness Qin He takes me on adventures to more places, I'm sure I'll be able to beat you."

The discussion about strength and weakness ends here. Volper immediately turned to Eve and said:

“I know your mother’s goal is to steal the two dragon eggs. But if you think I would kill the golden dragon, then you are the biggest fool.”

The probability of getting the Purple Dragon to obey a Metal Dragon or a Colored Dragon is already quite low.

If they continue to slaughter indiscriminately, they risk provoking the wrath of several dragons, which could ultimately lead to the destruction of the entire Purple Dragon clan.

"Alright, now it's time for judgment. You attempted to steal the dragon egg obtained by the adventurers, and then tried to kill them to cover your tracks and illegally capture a rainbow dragon—"

"Lord Silver Dragon, what is your judgment?"

Volper bowed respectfully, clad in armor strong enough to withstand attacks from Saint-level experts. However, this did not mean she dared to provoke the ancestral silver dragon before her.

Silver Dragon Moonbeam! Although not its true form, Moonbeam, at the early stage of Sainthood, was already able to conjure up a loli-shaped dragon girl phantom to handle practical matters.

Bahamut then demanded her intervention, so Moonbeam maintained her physical form in the Forsaken Land and her energy-condensed phantom form in Trahir.

The dragon herd consisting of ten giant dragons outside had also been saved by the phantom of the Moon Emperor.

“I will communicate with the duchess here and have Janet imprisoned for life, after which her daughter will become the new city lord.”

“All of Janet’s personal assets, including her savings and fiefdoms, were used as compensation to the two mistresses for the purchase of two dragon eggs.”

The illusory image that forms will dissipate in about ten days. However, this illusory image can briefly unleash the full power of the Moon Emperor, if one does not agree—

Then the duchesses of Palemoon City and the surrounding area will be judged by Bahamut's Knights of the Claws of Justice.

Then, Yuehuang changed to a gentle expression. Despite such scheming and plotting, Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling still did not kill the mercenaries.

In Yuehuang's eyes, these two mistresses were undoubtedly proof of Qin He's inclination towards goodness.

"My two mistresses, please allow me to introduce myself. I am the ancestral silver dragon Yuehuang. I have come here in my illusory form at the command of His Majesty Bahamut and His Highness Qin He."

Yuehuang's petite, loli-like figure, adorned with bright silver clothing, made her look just like Dengliu—an extremely adorable little girl.

"It's so small..."

The two exclaimed in surprise, but Wolper said:

"Don't let her cute appearance fool you, ladies; her true strength is at the Saint level!"

Those fleshy, white-stockinged feet, and the graceful curves of their calves...

"If Qin He were here, wouldn't it be wonderful to pinch her little feet?"

As Qin Xinru was lost in her daydreams, Yuehuang handed her a treasure map—

"My ladies, this is a treasure map I obtained on my way here. It contains the remains of an ancient dragon and will be of help to you."

"Before I dissipate, my phantom will take care of things here."

The treasure map was quite exquisite; Yuehuang had found it on her way here. After all, the phantom was empty-handed, and she had to bring some gifts when meeting the mistress.

This treasure map was quite important to the frost giant tribe she had encountered. After opening it and examining it, the adorable silver dragon loli understood that its destination was the tomb of an ancient dragon.

Iceborne... This ancient dragon, who died of old age, is probably the real reason for the dramatic climate change that caused snow-capped mountains to appear near the desert.

Upon receiving the gift, Zhong Xiling said:

"Moonlight~ You're so cute and tiny, are you really at the Saint level? From now on, you'll have to stay by Qin He's side and keep a close eye on him for us~"

Seeing this, Qin Xinru also gave the same instructions.

"Yes, Yuehuang. Please take good care of Qin He from now on—"

However, these few words, which were equivalent to a mother's advice to her classmate and a request for her to take good care of her son, were interpreted differently by Yuehuang.

"!!!"

The two mistresses have entrusted me with an important task!

Doesn't this mean...?

I could rush to Qin He's side and set an example with the silver dragon's virtuous character. Could I influence His Highness Qin He and transform him into a benevolent ruler of the dragons?

Yan Ling and Sang Shen, those evil dragons must have used their big, soft, and vile bodies to bewitch Qin He! If Yue Huang wants to prevent Qin He from being controlled by the evil dragons, he must make Qin He understand the gentleness and tolerance of benevolent dragons.

Furthermore, Qin He and the two mistresses had been separated for quite some time… It's decided! The first thing Yuehuang did after arriving in the dungeon was to act as a gentle, doting mother to Qin He and lull him to sleep—

If Qin He wanted, it wouldn't be impossible for her to play the role of the mother...

Without further ado, they used their mental power to manipulate the phantom and escort the greedy city lord to prison.

On the other side, the beautiful dragon body of Silver Dragon Moon Radiance, which was about forty meters long, sped towards the entrance of the underground city!

"Hehe~ Your Highness Qin He! I'm here~ Let me see what kind of heroic epic you've achieved in the dungeon!"

Chapter 283 Blue Lightning and the Sky Evil Girl

Azure Rathalos and Pink Rathalos were used as materials to forge weapons. These spoils, which should have belonged to the Gold Dragon, ended up in the hands of the Purple Dragon and the two adventurers.

When her daughter Eve returned with her mercenary team but failed to find the Golden Dragon and had to return to the city, Janet began to plot to capture the Purple Dragon.
