.

  Helen, Choi Bae-sun, Gotani and Jingyu holding Kasha formed the "Emerald Beauty Group" and entered from the door one foot in front of the other, seeing them...

  "Richard! There's a huge python outside, look at the footprints on the ground and you'll know that Yun Qinjin has struck again!" Before Helen arrived, the sound of her footsteps had already reached.

  Cui Peishan saw Liu Zhenhong sitting on the throne from afar, and just as she was about to greet him, she caught sight of the giant crane, let out a shrill cry, and trembled with fear as she hid behind Songtanni.

  Kotani swiftly drew out a cross-shaped long sword, and the silver aura burst forth in an instant. Her eyes vigilantly scanned her surroundings.

  "What's wrong, sir?" Kotani asked with a puzzled tilt of her head. The surrounding earth spirits had clearly lost their will to fight, not even having any weapons, was it enough to make this authority-wielding priest lose his composure like this?

  "Arch-nemesis!" Cui Peishan said timidly from behind her: "I saw Medusa's arch-nemesis."

  A loud, long cry from the giant crane shook its wings, and the tables and chairs around it suddenly flew in all directions. Guo's small paws were stuffed into his mouth, and he blew a whistle. The giant crane's violent body stopped abruptly, and it immediately became extremely docile.

  "Wow!" Helen stared blankly at the tables and chairs that were blown against the wall by the hurricane-force winds, exclaiming in shock.

  "That's great!" Liu Zhenhong burst out laughing and stood up to welcome the four people: "Don't be afraid, teacher, this giant crane is Guo Guo's new pet, we're a family."

  The beautiful snake guide poked her head out with a mixture of doubt and suspicion, her elegant face unable to conceal the lingering fear.

  "Talking nonsense again." Helen's eyes rolled and she gave Liu a sideways glance: "How could Guo Guo possibly keep pets, it's not like they're for sacrifice."

  Before Liu Zhen could respond, another shrill cry pierced the air, this time from the usually calm and composed Jing Yu.

  "My goodness! This is... this is the Bolangsha Fire Crane, this is the Bolangsha Fire Crane of our Silk Continent's Yunqin Empire! A giant crane with such a large body, and there's even a flame crest on its forehead. It must be! It must be my Yunqin Empire's Bolangsha Fire Crane!" Jingyu pointed at the giant crane, taking half a day to stammer out this incoherent sentence.

  "What's wrong?" Liu Zhen was taken aback by her excitement, a bit stunned.

  "Richard, you don't know." Jingyu couldn't contain her excitement, and beads of sweat dripped from the tip of her nose: "The dragon clan in our Far East is the most mysterious existence, and no one has ever seen it with their own eyes. The Sky Knights on our continent can only have a Borangsha Fire Crane as a mount if they are extremely powerful. Fire Crane Knights are as rare as Dragon Knights on the Aegean Continent. When our Cloud Qin Empire swept across the Far East continent, there were only five Fire Crane Knights; even when the Emperor went to sea to search for medicine in the distant West, he didn't even send a Fire Crane Knight to follow!"

  "Why?" Liu Zhen felt that Yun Qin Emperor was a bit stupid, such an important medicine-seeking trip, yet not dispatching even one powerful Sky Knight to escort them.

  "In our land of silk, there is a custom where 'driving cranes to the west' is a euphemism for someone's death. Even Your Majesty cannot avoid this custom." Jingyu explained: "However, I'm just inferring from some classics I've read, and I don't know if what I said is correct. After all, I haven't returned to the land of silk either."

  "No wonder... If the giant dragon of the Far East Silk Continent was as worthless as the Aegean Continent, Fogelson. Old Master Xu wouldn't have begged me for dragon meat back then." Liu Zhen said with a sarcastic smile, glancing at the nearby Dragon Fairy with a hint of venom in his tone.

  The fairy dragon turned around and gave him a resentful glance.

  "Immortal Dragon?" Helen and Cui Peishan were both struck by lightning, shocked and pale.

  "No joke, remember I'm reiterating, I'm not joking! Xian Nü Long and Huo He are our new pets in Guo Guo." Liu Zhen Han spread his hands.

  Guo Guo jumped into Helen's arms and buried her head in a flurry of movement.

  Helen and Cui Peishan were completely stunned, Song Tanni's silver cross sword "clanged" to the ground, Ning Yu's hand softened and Ka Qiu Sha was knocked to the ground with a "bang", the little piglet was knocked unconscious.

  "Is the Fairy Dragon... a pet of Guo Guo?" The four beauties were all stunned there.

  Liu Zhenhong slowly told the whole story, and the four beauties listened with rapt attention, even the shocking fact that Eve had become a poisonous person was overshadowed by the stunning revelation of Guo Guo's two powerful magical pets.

  "Can Frostfur Hill be called a beast of misfortune from now on?" Gatanie muttered, "A giant dragon-like Far Eastern Fire Crane, plus a Fairy Dragon, all are its pets?"

  "In our land's sacrificial rituals, having twin magical pets is already a rare occurrence, and Guo Guo has two of them." Cui Peishan, this rod-wielding sacrificer who had long since seen through the ways of the world, unexpectedly felt a pang of indescribable jealousy and envy in her heart.

  "Richard's demonic pets have surpassed those of the God of War!" The little fox suddenly shrieked.

  "Nonsense, Guagua and Kasha are my children, not demonic pets." Liu Zhen corrected.

  "These two little ones don't listen to anyone, only you. This kind of blood-is-thicker-than-water emotion, how can a spiritual contract compare? Cui Peishan looked at Liu Zhensheng with envy: "Now I must report this to the Northeastern Divine Temple! This is not only your glory, but also the pride of our Northeastern Divine Temple and all of Beimou!"

  "Master, didn't you say that I would secretly sign up for the National Olympic Sacrifice Festival? Why have you changed your mind now?" Liu Zhen asked intentionally.

  "Uh..." Cui Peishan's cleverness had turned into clumsiness, leaving her speechless. Good grief, if she really introduced him to join halfway through the ceremony, it wouldn't be chaotic enough unless it was a complete mess.

  "Not a word, strength isn't just about bragging, the fewer people who know a secret, the better, that way you can catch others off guard and take them down. You should learn from me on this point." Liu's gaze was fixed on Gatanee, emphasizing the two words "secret" with a slightly heavier tone, the Swan Knight sensed his threat and quickly nodded.

  "No wonder the 'Jade Dream' summoned it instead of the Frost Giant Dragon. It's actually more formidable than the Frost Giant Dragon." The Fairy Dragon sighed with a melancholic expression.

  "It's said that the Bo Lang Sha Fire Crane can live up to 9,000 years. With a body this big, who knows how long it'll live!" Jing Yu walked up to the giant crane, looking up at its massive form and stroking its white feathers.

  The flamingo raised its head, let out a soft cry, and bent one of its long claws, on which there were fleshy growths like tree knots, as if bitten by lice.

  Guo Guo jumped down from Helen's arms, bent the flamingo's claws and counted them up. After counting, Guo Guo raised three small claws, and there were only three small claws on one of his little hands.

  Guo Guo looked again and stretched out another small hand, raising a claw.

  "Four thousand years old?" Liu was shocked and guessed: "Damn it!"

  "Why did it come from the distant Far Eastern continent to the Qin continent?" Cui Peishan asked curiously.

  Guo Guo made a chilly shudder and flapped her wings as if flying.

  "Wild flamingos migrate to warmer places in winter." Liu Zhen was translating Guo's body language.

  "What a coincidence! What a coincidence!" The fairy dragon was filled with regret. If this flamingo had migrated to a warmer place, it would have continued flying south, and its "Jade Dream" had really died at the right time.

  Guo Guo pulled out the Medusa badge from the leopard skin pouch. Pressing the button on it, with a wave of her hand, Huo He was sucked into the hibernation boundary inside the badge. Guo Guo looked at Cui Peishan with wide eyes, pointing to Xian Nü Long Long with her small paws.

  "Richard's badge has not been useful until now. As a result, it's cheaper for you, sorry Ah Guo, without the permission of the main temple, it is not allowed to wear two badges during the ceremony, and I have no way to give you a second one." Cui Peishan pinched Ah Guo's tender little face, full of apology.

  The fairy dragon almost fainted, Winter Sleep Boundary! This frosty skin Qiu actually wanted to put her into the winter sleep boundary and hibernate!

  "Why take Xian Nü Long into the boundary? Let her stay with me, she doesn't like seeing me anyway. I'll make her feel sick every day! Letting her hibernate would be letting her off easy!" Liu Zhen said as he stroked Guo Guo's little head.

  "From now on, let her feed Kaqiu Sha and Guo Guo every day!" Avril was furious after holding back for half a day. She said hatefully.

  The fairy dragon almost cried when she heard this.

  Outside the gate, a "humming" sound was heard, Liu Zhen ran to the door and saw that all the vassal tribes of Hongtu Gaodi had come, with old people and children in large numbers. They were moving the dead Feiwenli venomous python.

  "Everyone has come to support you, who knew you've already solved it." Helen smiled brightly at Richard.

  "Sometimes the most direct solution is force, extreme force." Liu Zhen said with a humble smile: "This is my specialty."

  "It's only you who can do it, my Richard is the best!" Helen said happily. Richard suddenly had four magical pets, this joy surpassed Helen's own pleasure of having a Komodo War Beast.

  The fairy dragon looked at the beautiful fox girl with a bit of puzzlement, even though she was extremely intelligent, but no matter what, she couldn't understand why so many beauties were following this rough and uncouth man.

  "Settled?" Liu Zhen was taken aback and let out a long sigh: "You didn't mention it, I almost forgot the main issue. Xian Nü Long, come over here."

  "How many more Guili Huoqiang are there on Razor Mountain?" Liu Zhen asked, staring at the Fairy Dragon.

  "There is only one in total, originally in Deke's hands, now in yours." Xian Nv Long replied calmly.

  "Aren't you the one who designed the sex toy? You have the design drawings, why not make a few?" Liu Zhenhua threw away the cigar in his mouth and stepped on it.

  "What's the use of having blueprints for light? Do you think it's easy to replicate Gablin's creations, the great dwarf master? Even Master Gablin himself needed the help of Dwarf Master Dogen to create the ancient fire cannon, let alone the magic impact cannon. That kind of forging technique is currently impossible for any craftsman to achieve." The fairy dragon snorted disdainfully.

  "Where did these designs come from? And where did you find this antique rifle?" Liu Zhen asked, step by step.

  The fairy dragon fell silent.

  "Didn't you say?" Liu's eyebrows rose as he said to Guo Guo: "Baby, let this fairy dragon help feed you."

  Hehe, with a mischievous laugh, her little mouth made "chu chu" sounds against the fairy dragon.

  "Who says I didn't say anything?" The fairy dragon's back was covered in sweat, and her face turned red: "This ancient power sword and the earth spirit army knife were excavated by the earth spirits from an ancient battlefield. The design drawings of these few weapons were buried in a secret place by Master Gabrin many years ago. My elder knew about it and also told me that I took out the drawings and handed them over to the Razor Mountain earth spirits."

  "Tell me honestly, what did you come here for? Is it just to repay your elder's kindness and gratitude? Isn't there any other special purpose?" Liu Zhen looked at Xian Nü Long with a slanted gaze.

  "There is no other purpose, just can't bear to see the descendants of Master Gabrin, whom even we Xian Nü Long admired back then, fall so low." Xian Nü Long's words were laced with thorns: "Not everyone does things for gain and return, that kind of despicable behavior is not worthy of us Xian Nü Long."

  "How long have you been here?" This level of sarcasm was simply a waste of words for Liu.

  "It's been a hundred years." The fairy dragon replied faintly. "However, I won't stay here for long every year."

  "It's only the Dragon Clan's long lifespan that can afford to waste time like this." Liu Zhen said with a sneer.

  "Baimon didn't waste his life, so why have you been stuck in this vast Donau wilderness for a thousand years? Your hometown is in the distant Aegean continent, isn't it? Hehe, that vast Karedo plain was once your home! The lava outlet leading to the underground world on the Karedo plain still exists, didn't a tribe of Buru rhino people and a tribe of Disguise eagle people escape to the underground world back then? Why haven't you gone to rescue them yet? Help them escape that dark underground cave and let them see the light again." The dragon girl retorted with sharp teeth and a pointed mouth.

  At this point, even Helen and Cui Peishan, who were in a good mood, couldn't keep their faces straight.

  The greatest hidden pain of the Beamon people is that after the Higal War a thousand years ago, they were forcibly occupied by humans and lost their homeland on the Aegean continent. Now, after a thousand years of reproduction, the human population has increased to hundreds of times that of the Beamon. There are dozens of large and small countries, and the basic technology of any human country far exceeds that of the Beamon Kingdom. What can the Beamon people use to retake their homeland? War is about logistics, it's about money. It's about the blood of soldiers. Local wars don't matter much, but if you want to retake the Karedo Great Plains, even if there were ten more dragon sacrifices in Beamon, it would be difficult to achieve this goal.

  "This dragon is a bit annoying," Helen whispered to her mentor.

  Cui Peishan nodded and whispered, "Although she's annoying, she also told us a lot of things we didn't know. We originally thought the Bogu tribe had been extinct, but it turns out that now there is still a branch of eagle-bodied people who escaped to the underground world. And another branch of the Bull tribe's rhinoceros people. Take note of these words, we will report them to the Temple later."

  Gatanni glared at the fairy dragon, wanting to retort, but somehow couldn't find the words. After a long pause, she finally managed to squeeze out: "What are you gloating about? My grandfather is the hereditary lord of the Bogu tribe! Our Bird Tribe will not sit idly by and watch as the Eagle Clan wanders in darkness at the bottom of the earth. I will definitely rescue them!"

  "Beautiful Swan Lady, I'm afraid once you set foot in the human realm, you probably won't be able to leave. The humans' lust is even more notorious than that of the Matchless Tribe." The Fairy Dragon chuckled.

  "No more nonsense! I've seen through you, you're trying to cause trouble for me everywhere! Speak! What have you been doing in the Blade Mountain Spirit Tribe for the past hundred years? Tell me everything, don't make me use despicable means on a noble dragon clan." Liu Zhen felt that this fairy dragon was not just a little bad, but was rotten to the bone.

  "My true identity is only known to the King of the Dwarves. In Razor Mountain, my external identity is that of a military advisor to the Dwarf King, and the dwarves hold me in high esteem. The dwarves are not as despicable as you imagine them to be. Over the past hundred years, under my guidance, the Razor Mountain dwarves have long since stopped participating in raids. Every year, herds of deer and reindeer migrate down from the mountains surrounding Razor Mountain to the Taemu Raya Snow Mountain, where they give birth to their young. The dwarves of Razor Mountain only need to hunt a certain number of deer and gather pinecones in the coniferous forest to satisfy their living needs." The dragon goddess's expression turned exceptionally solemn.

  "What was that about forty years ago, when the Hill Dwarf tribe was driven out? I remember it was your Razor Mountain Gnome tribe that led the charge!" Elder Andurin had also squeezed in at some point and quietly inserted a finger into his mouth.

  "What kind of people are under the command of Lord Meng, including all kinds of races?" The fairy dragon couldn't help but look at the young leader of the Taiji tribe with some curiosity, and then looked at Liu Zhen.

  "Answer the elder's question, don't dodge it." Liu Zhen said.

  "That time was for my sake. That dwarf tribe wasn't the Hill Dwarves you're talking about, they were genuine Valley Dwarves." The dragon fairy sighed.

  "Dwarves of the valley? You mean the old Kragnir dwarves, don't you?" Elder Anduril's face turned slightly red. Dwarves were indeed hard to tell apart from their appearance alone, as they all looked more or less alike.

  "There would be no Guro Firearm without the Guro Dwarf. The dwarf tribe originally lived on the other end of the White Mountain Range, and I had intended to bring them here and merge them with the Razorstone Hill Dwarf tribe. I wanted to use the Guro Dwarves' forging techniques to recreate the Guro Firearm, in order to protect both the Razorstone Hill Dwarf tribe and these Guro Dwarves from being bullied by others.

  But who knew that this Guro Dwarf tribe would end up like this? They took a liking to the rich mineral deposits here, and with their silver tongues, they swindled me out of the copper plate with the design for the weapon. Taking advantage of their numerical superiority, and my lack of attack magic, they actually thought they could monopolize these powerful weapons.

  So in a fit of rage, I had King Deko II gather the bandits from the wasteland and drive them away in one fell swoop."

  "Dwarves aren't the most honest race, are they? How could they do something like this?" Helen exclaimed in surprise.

  The fairy dragon let out a cold laugh and remained silent.

  "Helen, is there any absolutely honest race in this world? At most, it's just relatively more honest and loyal. In the face of absolute temptation, everyone is a bad egg. From now on, don't read that kind of boring stuff anymore. An honest person has no anus, next time someone tells you I'm an honest person, let him pull down his pants to show you whether he's honest or not." Liu was shocked and shook his head, laughing at himself first.

  "Wait, what did you just say? Mine? What mine?" Liu's smile suddenly froze, staring straight at Xiāng Niáng Lóng.

  "The mineral deposits on the vast wilderness." The fairy dragon nodded.

  "Boom!" The pot exploded, the mine! There are less than ten mines in the entire kingdom of Meng. The Bull Army still uses the totem pole as a weapon today. If there is a mine on the Great Wasteland, even if it means mobilizing the entire nation, the kingdom of Meng must take down the wasteland south of the Sanggan River!

  "Where is the mine?" Liu Zhen was the most excited, this area of five hundred miles was all his territory, if there was a mine, he would be the first to get rich overnight.

  "The entire Red Soil Wasteland is." The Fairy Dragon said: "As long as it's within the Red Soil range, there are massive mineral deposits!"

  "We're rich!" Liu Zhenpeng let out a strange cry, jumping up and pulling Guo Guo's small hand to dance the enthusiastic Potong Dance: "Who made us turn over..."

  "Where is the vein?" Cui Pei-shan was the calmest, stopping Tu Sun's frantic dance, looking at Xian Nu Long and asking: "Tell me, noble Xian Nu Long, where is the vein? The entire wasteland has been explored, don't deceive us like we're ignorant, although we don't have dwarves' keen sense of smell for metal, but a huge mine, it's absolutely impossible to hide from my kingdom for so long."

  "There's no mineral vein." The fairy dragon shrugged and smiled faintly.

  "You're kidding me again?" Liu was shocked, looked around, and snatched the Gu De's three-pronged demon-hunting spear. He tried it with both hands, and with this club, he could definitely knock the Fairy Dragon into a stupid dragon.

  "Do you know why weeds can't grow on red soil?" Xian Nü Long's one sentence made Liu slam on the brakes.

  "Why?" Cui Peishan glared at Liu Zhen with a fierce gaze, and looked kindly at the Dragon Fairy.

  "What's below involves a secret, sorry I can't say more, except..." The fairy dragon sold a pass.

  "What if?" Liu Zhen asked.

  "Unless you promise me to tell the truth, I will lift the spiritual contract between you and this Snowskin Beast. As you can see, this beast is extremely loyal to you, it will definitely listen to your words. To lift the spiritual contract requires mutual consent, I have no problem with that, now it's up to you two." The Fairy Dragon looked at Liu Zhen, a smile on her lovely face with two dimples.
