Chapter 106

Fine. Such being the case, she might as well contract with him. Just let nature take its course.

Duanmu Xi got a drop of her heart’s blood and dripped it into the middle of the cyan dragon’s eyebrows. Instantly, the life contract was successfully made.

“Mistress.”

Duanmu Xi looked at the cyan dragon who was reduced to the seventh level from the ninth level and kind of understood why he insisted on her becoming a level-nine Wind Spiritual Deity. He was just afraid that his level wouldn’t be as high as Hongling’s after he contracted with Duanmu Xi! It seemed that she had been deceived by this scheming dragon. She thought she had got a mythical creature without effort. It turned out that she still had spent more than one year acquiring the benefit. As a saying went, there was no free lunch. Likewise, there was no free mythical creature either.

Duanmu Xi heaved a sigh and looked at the cyan dragon, saying, “Since Hongling calls you Feng, I’ll name you Qingfeng then.”

The cyan dragon nodded to show his approval. The name was fine.

“Can we go out now?” Duanmu Xi was a bit anxious. She didn’t know whether her parents and Snow were still in the Qinglong Empire after more than one year.

“Of course…” Qingfeng also didn’t want to stay in this space of void where there was nothing.

Qingfeng changed into a cyan dragon and stared at Duanmu Xi, “Hop on.”

Duanmu Xi called the four other mythical creatures back to her mental space and then leaped onto the back of Qingfeng.

Qingfeng carried Duanmu Xi and flew up high.

Sitting on Qingfeng, Duanmu Xi felt so good as if she were the witch flying to the moon on a broom.

Qingfeng flew so fast that it just took her out of the space of void before she could figure out the situation.

Once they got out of the space of void, Qingfeng felt the long-lost spiritual power in the air. There was no longer wind spiritual power only. It was so good to get out.

Qingfeng not only roared at the sky with excitement but also turned several somersaults in the air with Duanmu Xi.

Hearing the dragon’s roar, the palace maids in the imperial palace of the Qinglong Empire all raised their heads and looked at the sky. Instantly, they all screamed in surprise.

“What… What is that…”

“Gee… It is the cyan dragon, the mythical creature…”

“Even the mythical creature of the cyan dragon comes to offer birthday congratulations for our emperor…”

“We must report this to His Majesty…”

In the Qinglong Hall, a eunuch ran inside with excitement, “Your Majesty…”

Huangfu Cang frowned and put down the glass, saying with a majestic look, “Why are you so panicked?”

The eunuch ran to the jade stairs and stared at Huangfu Cang with thrill, “Your Majesty, the mythical creature of the cyan dragon comes here to offer birthday congratulations to you.”

Hearing that, Huangfu Cang immediately felt that the eunuch was lying. However, the eunuch looked so excited as if he really had seen the mythical creature of the cyan dragon.

All the people felt the same as Huangfu Cang at first. Wasn’t the mythical creature of the cyan dragon a legendary being? How was it possible that such a being appeared here? Even though today was the 60th birthday of the emperor of the Qinglong Empire, the cyan dragon couldn’t show up and offer birthday congratulations to him.

Only Duanmu Xue, Huangfu Che and Xuanyuan Mo all stood up with excitement and asked in unison upon hearing the words of the eunuch, “Where is the mythical creature of the cyan dragon?”

Seeing the three people’s thrilled looks, the eunuch was taken aback and then pointed at the gate of the hall dully, “It’s right outside…”

Before the eunuch finished talking, the three people flew out like a gale. Seeing their facial expressions, Huangfu Cang also thought of something and then followed them outside.

The other people also had strange feelings to see such a scene and then ran out of the Qinglong Hall with them out of curiosity.

Duanmu Xi glimpsed the imperial palace of the Qinglong Empire down there and knitted her eyebrows. She patted Qingfeng and said, “Go back to my mental space first! I need to get down and meet my grandpa.” She didn’t want others to see Qingfeng too early before she told her grandpa about it.

Qingfeng nodded and then roared at the sky again before returning to Duanmu Xi’s mental space.

Without Qingfeng as her mount, Duanmu Xi flew down from the air slowly.

The four people who were the first ones to rush out of the hall heard the lingering dragon’s roar and all looked at the sky only to see a streak of cyan light flash across and a white figure land from the air.

“It’s Xi,” Duanmu Xue tugged at Huangfu Che’s sleeve with thrill and exclaimed.

Huangfu Che and Huangfu Cang were also a bit thrilled to see the white figure in the air. Now, no one cared about what the cyan light was or whether the mythical creature of the cyan dragon existed or not. All the people just stared at the person in the air.

Xuanyuan Mo flew to the air and caught Duanmu Xi.

“Snow…” Upon seeing Xuanyuan Mo, Duanmu Xi directly threw herself into his arms with excitement. She completely forgot that they were still in the air.

All the people following Xuanyuan Mo out didn’t see the legendary mythical creature of the cyan dragon but two people in white hugging in the air.

Seeing the familiar white figure in the air, Lian Zhengyu felt relieved and also jealous.

When Xuanyuan She caught sight of Duanmu Xi in the air, a shimmer of astoundment also flashed across his eyes. He didn’t expect that she didn’t die either.

Xuanyuan Hao was also amazed by the beauty of Duanmu Xi but what astonished him most was his desireless third brother was hugging a girl.

Duanmu Xi’s body was tightly pressed against Xuanyuan Mo in the air, making him able to feel the softness of her breasts.

“It has been a day only. Why do they seem to grow bigger?” Xuanyuan Mo whispered to Duanmu Xi in a husky voice and meanwhile glanced at her breasts meaningfully.

Duanmu Xi didn’t understand what Xuanyuan Mo implied and only heard that it had been a day only.

“How can it be a day only? Isn’t it a year?” Duanmu Xi asked the question directly.

A year? Xuanyuan Mo asked with a frown, “You have stayed there for a year?”

Duanmu Xi nodded and said, “Yeah, I’ve spent more than one year cultivating the wind spiritual power in there.”

Xuanyuan Mo peeped at Duanmu Xi’s breasts again. No wonder they grew so bigger all of a sudden. This was so great. He didn’t have to wait too long then.

Xuanyuan Mo’s gaze made Duanmu Xi blush and then she cast an angry glance at him, “So, has it been a day or a year?”

“It has been a day outside. Today is your grandpa’s 60th birthday. Maybe it is a paralleled space and the time there is not in sync with that in here,” Xuanyuan Mo looked at Duanmu Xi and explained.

Instantly, Duanmu Xi’s dark purple eyes gleamed with anger. She had been fooled by that damned scheming dragon again.

Qingfeng in her mental space read Duanmu Xi’s mind and smiled, saying, “Oh right, I forgot to tell you that a year in the space of void is equal to a day in the outside world.”

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi felt so angry that she wanted to drag the dragon out of her mental space and give it a beating. It must mean to fool her deliberately.

Xuanyuan Mo who had his arms around Duanmu Xi’s waist suddenly felt that she was giving off a rush of cold air so he looked at her in perplexity.

Duanmu Xi glanced downward by accident only to find a group of people looking up at the sky. When did these people appear down there?

Duanmu Xi immediately blushed and then took a glance at Xuanyuan Mo, “Let’s go down now!” Why did she always do this kind of embarrassing thing in front of many people?

Xuanyuan Mo looked at the bashful Duanmu Xi and then willed his mind. As he tapped with his tiptoes, he landed with Duanmu Xi.

“Grandpa…” Once Duanmu Xi landed, she directly rushed to Huangfu Cang and threw herself into his arms, “Grandpa, I miss you so much.”

Huangfu Cang patted her head affectionately and said lovingly, “Good. It is so great that you came back safe and sound.”

Staring at them interacting so intimately, Duanmu Xue and Huangfu Che were both jealous. Why did Xi only care about her grandpa? They were still here and she just didn’t cast a glance at them at all. They both knew that Xi always showed an air of detachment. It was really beyond their understanding why Xi was so intimate to the grandpa she had just met for several days only.

The other people present put on different looks when they saw the beautiful face of Duanmu Xi.

The old officials and officers were shocked to see Duanmu Xi. Was Empress Huiyuan revived…

The young men were just fascinated by Duanmu Xi. What a beautiful lady…

The grandchildren of Huangfu Cang were all jealous to see Duanmu Xi. Why was their grandpa so nice to her…

Huangfu Xin was astonished to see Duanmu Xi. Where did she come from…

“I’m sorry, Grandpa. I’ve arrived late.” Duanmu Xi looked at Huangfu Cang apologetically.

It was the damned scheming dragon’s fault. Otherwise, she wouldn’t come to attend her grandpa’s birthday banquet so late.

Huangfu Cang looked at Duanmu Xi, saying smilingly, “You are not late. The banquet has just started. Let’s go inside first.”

Then, Huangfu Cang dragged Duanmu Xi toward the Qinglong Hall.

The birthday banquet also resumed due to the return of all.

After Huangfu Cang sat on the throne, Duanmu Xi took out a sandalwood box from her arms and passed it to Huangfu Cang.

“Grandpa, this is the birthday present for you from Snow and me. Happy birthday, Grandpa!” Duanmu Xi also bent down and laid a kiss on the cheek of Huangfu Cang.

Huangfu Cang felt so happy and soft-hearted. He didn’t care about what present Duanmu Xi gave him and felt that her kiss was the best present ever.

Duanmu Xue and Huangfu Che were jealous again. Xi had never kissed them before. Hugging was the best they had ever got. Suddenly, they also wished their birthday to arrive now!

Xuanyuan Mo’s amber eyes also glittered with a shimmer of jealousy. The old man was still so annoying. The good impression he had had of Huangfu Cang was just gone.

A lot of young men present felt the same as Xuanyuan Mo but they didn’t dare to hate Huangfu Cang but envied him very much.

“Grandpa, open it now and see if you like it,” Duanmu Xi looked at Huangfu Cang and said expectantly.

This was the treasure she had got from her chief master with a lot of effort.

“Okay.” Huangfu Cang opened the sandalwood box slowly. A streak of dazzling white light immediately illuminated the whole Qinglong Hall. Meanwhile, a rich scent of elixir came out of the box, which was a lot more fragrant than the Taiji Golden Elixir offered by Zhuge Weiming.

The people knew that the elixir given by Princess Qinglian must be much better than the Taiji Golden Elixir sent by Prince Regent of the Xuanwu Empire even if they had little knowledge of elixirs.
