Chapter 267 - Mischievous Xiao Long

"Is it him?"

"How could he enter our Sacred City?"

"I heard that he was specially invited by the King's Dao Protectors."

Whispers were floating in the air as Li Moyun walked through the square outside the main hall.

He had arrived in the Wushi Continent alongside Xiao Long and those Dao Protectors, and was somewhat surprised by the density of the heaven and earth essence in the air.

He had broken through to the Ascended Realm before leaving the previous continent, and had thought that it would take time for him to consolidate his foundations, but he soon found that this breakthrough not only increased his strength, but also his potential seemed to have soared, as he managed to refine pure Qi at a speed unlike before.

He was rather astonished by the speed of improvement, but he was not willing to relax. He had decided to increase his strength as quickly as possible, while still ensuring that it was done properly, so that when Bai Rouyun arrived, he would be able to protect her.

He had been missing his dear wife after his arrival, but he knew that sometimes a separation was needed for both of them to grow; and for their shared future, they had to be apart for now.

The Dao Protectors had brought him and Xiao Long directly to the Secret City, which was located on the biggest mountain in the Golden Dragon Clan's area.

This Secret City was the most important city for the Golden Dragon Clan, and only those with the most prominent ident.i.ty were allowed to reside here, but these Dao Protectors had brought an outsider, and had even given him a respectable t.i.tle in their clan.

Many of these golden dragons felt uncomfortable when thinking about how a human being was ranked above them in their own home, and many could not help but look at Li Moyun with disdain and enmity.

They did not know what great achievement he had done to gain such respect, and these youngsters had gone home to complain to the elders of their families, and these elders had summoned all the important members of the Golden Dragon Clan.

Only the ones present knew what had happened within the closed doors of their sacred hall, but when these elders left through the doors, their expressions seemed extremely solemn, and they gave their descendants a warning that they should not cause problems for this young human, no matter how annoying he might seem.

Li Moyun had been the subject of many uncomfortable stares from the start, but he was not one to be influenced by their thoughts. While he had gone from being the best on the old continent, to the lowliest here, his mindset had not suffered. He did not consider himself useless nor weak, he only felt that he needed to work harder to catch up with those that were born here.

"Are you thinking about Rouyun again?"

While Li Moyun was thinking of the best way to increase his strength, Xiao Long's voice sounded in his mind. The tiny dragon hatchling had become much more mischievous after returning to the dragon clan, and he was able to abuse his ident.i.ty to the limits.

Even the Dao Protectors would often get headaches when trying to teach him about etiquette or rules that had been pa.s.sed down throughout the dragon society for countless of millenia.

"Did you escape your lesson?"

Li Moyun took back his thoughts as he glanced at the dragon that hid in the contracted beast s.p.a.ce as it tried to avoid being found by the strict teachers.

Normally, during this time of the day, Xiao Long was supposed to be training his inherited dragon skills, but he felt that it was immensely boring, as he already had a good grasp of the skills, and he did not feel a need to polish them further.

Ever since he hatched, Xiao Long had been living a pampered and spoiled life. He had never been forced to fight for survival, and thus he did not understand the importance of improving himself. He was also still a young hatchling, and while he was able to speak and think, his mental age was still very young.

Even Li Moyun felt helpless when looking at this young dragon that did not seem very enthusiastic about working hard.

"Rouyun will arrive at the Wushi Continent in a year or so. We do not have a lot of time to gain strength, and if we are not strong enough, she might be taken away by her original parents."

Li Moyun seemed to have found the perfect excuse to make the little dragon understand why it was needed to improve their strength.

"She can't be taken away! Rouyun is ours!"

Although Xiao Long had somehow managed to contract with Li Moyun, it was clear that the picky and spoiled dragon hatchling preferred Bai Rouyun. Her gentle voice was soothing, and the soft hugs she gave were comfortable. Also, her food was very delicious, and thus he would rather lose his master than Bai Rouyun.

"Rouyun is from the Bai family. I am sure that your teacher has previously taught you about the Bai family from this continent, and you should be aware that they are not weak. If we do not have enough strength, we will not be able to bring her with us in the future, and they might even lock her up in order to keep her from us."

Xiao Long began to feel uncomfortable as he thought of the possibility of losing Bai Rouyun. He was a lazy beast by nature, but he could work hard if he had the right motivation to do so. Unfortunately, nothing had given him enough reason to try yet, but now that he heard that this strength was important to keep those he held dear, he suddenly came out from the contractual beast s.p.a.ce, and rushed towards the lecture hall.

"I'm going to train!" The voice lingered in the air as the little dragon vanished, resulting in Li Moyun smiling wryly while shaking his head in amus.e.m.e.nt.
