Chapter 1019: Chapter 530: Arrival of the Cyan Dragon (2)

Little Cyan Dragon’s body gradually breaks free from the eggshell, each struggle accompanied by the surge of Wood Spirit Qi, as if nature itself is lending a hand, helping it smoothly descend into the world. Its cyan and tender green scales slightly reflect light, each one fine and resilient, revealing an extraordinary texture.

Little Cyan Dragon attempts to use its still immature four feet to support its body. Although it seems a bit unsteady standing for the first time, it quickly rises into the air. Its eyes initially open, resembling two dazzling green gems, sparkling with curious and intelligent brilliance, instantly locking onto everything around.

The juvenile dragon’s body, though small, contains astonishing life force and potential. It is about one and a half feet long, small and exquisite, covered in tender green, compact dragon scales, exuding the noble aura of the Cyan Dragon Race. Its four dragon claws are small and sharp, akin to the most exquisite carvings, each toe’s claw shining faintly with cyan radiance, seemingly possessing the power to cut through all things. Beneath its feet, a cluster of light green spirit mist gathers under its abdomen, allowing its petite limbs to tread upon the clouds.

At the center of Little Cyan Dragon’s forehead grows a pair of small dragon horns, crystal clear, resembling jadeite carved delicately. Not only does it add to Little Cyan Dragon’s majesty, but it also symbolizes its identity as a member of the Cyan Dragon Race.

Little Cyan Dragon’s eyes are particularly captivating, akin to two dazzling green gems, flashing with a glow full of wisdom. Those eyes seem capable of gaining insight into all things, brimming with curiosity and a desire to explore the environment.

However, Little Cyan Dragon soon fixes its gaze on Li Mu, sensing a deep bond through the Spirit Taming Contract Seal, akin to a father or mother.

Little Cyan Dragon gently circles through the air, adapting to flight. As it flies, the Wood Spirit Qi within the Wood Array pulses fiercely, causing the entire forest to sway gently to its rhythm.

Having adapted to flight, Little Cyan Dragon emits a crisp and melodious dragon roar, excitedly flying toward Li Mu.

"Qing Lin!" Xue’Er exclaimed excitedly with a mix of agitation and joy, stepping forward to greet it.

With a nimble form, Little Cyan Dragon draws a graceful arc in the air, effortlessly bypassing Xue’Er and landing steadily before Li Mu, burying its head into his embrace.

Li Mu’s face blossoms with a warm smile, reaching out to gently stroke the tender horns atop Little Cyan Dragon’s head, his eyes filled with love and contentment. Little Cyan Dragon gently twists its body, seemingly expressing its dependence and affection for this "father" in its own way.

"Brother Li, Qing Lin is so attached to you!"

Xue’Er looked on enviously, speaking with admiration.

"Qing Lin, say hello, this is Sister Xue’Er." Li Mu smiled slightly, beckoning Little Cyan Dragon.

Little Cyan Dragon seems to understand Li Mu’s words, subtly raises its head from his embrace, and with those dazzling green gem-like eyes, it curiously glances at Xue’Er. Then, it emits a crisp and tender dragon roar, carrying a hint of goodwill, as if greeting Xue’Er.

Upon seeing this, Xue’Er’s face promptly bursts into a brilliant smile. She crouches down, attempting to meet Little Cyan Dragon’s gaze at eye level, and gently says, "Hello, Qing Lin! I’m Xue’Er. From now on, we’ll be good friends. I’ll take care of you together with Brother Li."

Little Cyan Dragon’s gaze meets Xue’Er’s, revealing a hint of cautious alertness, then turns its head away, ignoring Xue’Er, appearing somewhat indifferent.

"Brother Li!" Xue’Er asks Li Mu for help, feeling wronged.

"The little one has just been born and is naturally a bit cold. Cangmu Cyan Dragon is the king of the Dragon Race, inherently proud. Such reactions are expected; with time and gradual contact, it will become accustomed!"

Li Mu smiled in comfort, if not for the Spirit Taming Contract Seal, the little one definitely wouldn’t be so attached to him.

Upon hearing this, Xue’Er’s sense of grievance gradually dissipates. She crouches down again, this time not hastily approaching Little Cyan Dragon, but quietly waiting, conveying goodwill with her gentle gaze to it.

As the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, Xue’Er doesn’t believe her charm cannot conquer this little one.

Li Mu smiled slightly and took some High-tier Spirit Pills from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl. Then, holding ’Qing Lin’ out from his embrace, he handed it to Xue’Er, instructing, "The little one has just been born; this is the Spirit Nurturing Pill I prepared for it, suitable for consumption. You feed it!"

Xue’Er smiled slightly, quickly extending her hand to receive the Pill Bottle and Little Cyan Dragon.

’Qing Lin’ left Li Mu’s body and fell into Xue’Er’s hands, becoming immediately displeased, its four limbs struggling continuously, trying to break free. It opened its little mouth, ready to unleash Dragon Breath at Xue’Er.

Upon seeing this, Li Mu hurriedly transmitted Divine Thought to stop ’Qing Lin’s actions.

"Qing Lin, this Spirit Nurturing Pill is prepared specifically for you. Eating it will help you grow faster and become stronger." Xue’Er promptly poured out a Spirit Pill, enticingly calling, trying to sway Little Cyan Dragon with warmth in her words and gaze.

Feeling Li Mu’s restraining Divine Thought, Little Cyan Dragon ’Qing Lin’, though still somewhat dissatisfied, gradually calmed down and stopped struggling. Its green gem-like eyes remain vigilantly fixed on the Spirit Pill in Xue’Er’s hand, instinctively cautious of unfamiliar things.

"Qing Lin, don’t be afraid, I won’t harm you. Try it, after eating you’ll feel your body more comfortable, with more strength." Xue’Er offers a kind smile, presenting the Spirit Pill closer to Little Cyan Dragon’s mouth.

Under Li Mu’s encouragement and Xue’Er’s gentle persuasion, ’Qing Lin’ finally relaxes its tense nerves, feeling the pure and powerful surge of Spiritual Power. Green dragon eyes glint with a hint of greed, it then opens its little mouth, swallowing the Spirit Pill in one gulp.

With the Spirit Pill’s digestion, ’Qing Lin’s body seems enveloped by a warm power, feeling its Spiritual Power inside increase rapidly, its body becoming more agile and powerful. It excitedly lets out a crisp dragon roar, its voice full of satisfaction.

’Qing Lin’ gazes ardently at Xue’Er, hoping for another pill.

Xue’Er smiled slightly, secretly delighted. This is a great chance to tame a dragon, not to be missed.

Having initially won ’Qing Lin’s trust, Xue’Er gently stroked the smooth scales of Little Cyan Dragon, continuing, "Qing Lin, as long as you behave, more Spirit Pills will be fed to you. But first, you’ll have to learn to get along with us, understand?"

Speaking, Xue’Er took another Spirit Nurturing Pill from the Pill Bottle. However, this time she didn’t rush to give it to ’Qing Lin’, instead swaying it before its eyes.

Xue’Er enticed gently, "Look, this is another precious Spirit Nurturing Pill; it can help you quickly pass through the juvenile stage. But if you want it, you have to fly onto my shoulder! Here, understood?"

Little Cyan Dragon ’Qing Lin’ understood Xue’Er’s statement, its eyes flashed with hesitation. The Dragon Race’s inherited dignity couldn’t allow it to lower its head, yet it seemed tempted by the pill’s allure, ... for a moment, it found itself in a dilemma.

"Little one! If you don’t want this top-grade Spirit Pill, I’ll just eat it myself!" Seeing this, Xue’Er’s eyes carried a slyness, pretending to swallow it.

With this, Little Cyan Dragon ’Qing Lin’s eyes became eager. The Dragon Race’s inherent craving for Miracle Elixirs is innate, especially Spirit Nurturing Pills that help it grow quickly.

With a "whoosh," Little Cyan Dragon soared through the clouds, its small body drawing a radiant arc in the air, landing precisely and accurately upon Xue’Er’s shoulder. Its emerald dragon eyes fixed intensely on the Spirit Nurturing Pill in Xue’Er’s hand, full of yearning.

Upon witnessing this, Xue’Er’s smile deepens, gently patting ’Qing Lin’s little head, as if praising its choice. She then placed the Spirit Nurturing Pill gently into ’Qing Lin’s opened dragon mouth.

"That’s the way, Qing Lin, we must mutually trust to become true partners, here comes another one." Xue’Er happily examines Little Cyan Dragon, her voice gentle, while taking out another Spirit Nurturing Pill.

...

Observing this scene, Li Mu couldn’t help but show a grateful smile, watching as Xue’Er gradually used the Spirit Nurturing Pill to guide ’Qing Lin’ to drop its prideful demeanour and transform into a well-behaved and sensible cyan dragon.
