Chapter 1061: Chapter 1061: Space Source Crystal with a 10-Fold Price Increase
Bai Xiuxiu looked at the huge dome and couldnât help but nod.
It had to be said that such a design was indeed suitable for Giant Dragons. Flying home and directly descending into the dwelling was obviously the most convenient.
Also, because of this design, the main entrance of the castle was no longer excessively large, just four meters high. The deep purple metal door was already open, with four members of the Blue Sea Tribe guarding it.
âKnowing that Beloved Sister is closer to the Blue Sea Tribe, Iâve replaced all the servants here with members from the Blue Sea Tribe. Lunch should be ready. Shall we dine first?â
âAlright,â Bai Xiuxiu replied, âBrother, you are thoughtful.â
Hearing her words, Huang Yuanlangâs smile grew wider; he had indeed put a lot of thought into this residence. However, upon his return from Sky Dragon City, he couldnât find Bai Xiuxiu and had thrown a fit.
The interior of the main living room was decorated in white and gold, and the walls were adorned with murals, all related to Giant Dragons.
Lan Xuanyu noticed that in the most striking part of the mural, facing the main entrance, was a Giant Dragon painted in dark green. Atop the dragonâs head stood a person wielding a Long Spear, clad in ferocious armor. Most eerie of all, the spikes on the personâs boots seemed to be piercing into the dragonâs skull, as if anchoring him in place.
Though it was just a mural, the Dragon Knight still emitted a formidable and menacing aura.
Bai Xiuxiu, naturally, saw it too and asked Huang Yuanlang, âWho is that?â
Huang Yuanlang replied with some pride, âThat is Lord Luo Lan. Our familyâs protector. He is a powerful Dragon Knight. His mount, a high-ranking dragon of the Dragon Clan, is known as Moke and controls deadly poison. Therefore, Lord Luo Lan is also known as the Moke Dragon Knight. Among the eighteen Lord Dragon Knights, he ranks seventh.â
Bai Xiuxiu curiously asked, âThe familyâs protector? He is from your family?â
Quickly, Huang Yuanlang corrected, âNot exactly. But we receive Lord Luo Lanâs protection.â As he spoke, he led Bai Xiuxiu towards a dining room on one side.
The dining room had a long table with only one chair at each end. The table was filled with sumptuous food, much of which Lan Xuanyu and the others had never seen before, clearly specialties of the Sky Dragon Planet.
Huang Yuanlang personally pulled out a chair for Bai Xiuxiu, inviting her to sit. Then, he took his place on the opposite side.
âBeloved Sister, first of all, welcome back. Letâs drink some Dragon Tree Juice. This is the sap from the Mother Tree of the Sky Dragon, a rare and excellent substance. It is a nourishing elixir for our dragon bloodline,â Huang Yuanlang said, lifting his cup and gesturing to Bai Xiuxiu.
Bai Xiuxiu glanced at the juice in her cup, a pale red liquid emitting a somewhat strange scent, that seemed intuitively to give off a kind of burning sensation.
Standing not far behind her, Lan Xuanyu felt somewhat nervous. Bai Xiuxiu, without too much hesitation, raised her cup to toast Huang Yuanlang across from her, and took a small sip.
The Dragon Tree Juice tasted sweet and was better than expected. A wave of warmth instantly spread throughout her body. A rosy flush appeared on Bai Xiuxiuâs pretty face, and the bloodline within her surged stronger for a moment. On the surface of her skin, dragon scales appeared faintly.
Seeing this, Huang Yuanlangâs eyes brightened, and he laughed, âBeloved Sisterâs bloodline is indeed powerful. The first time I encountered this Dragon Tree Juice, I nearly revealed my true form. This sap from the Mother Tree of the Sky Dragon is a major tonic for us, but it is poison to other races. Consuming it could easily cause their bloodlines to boil and lead to death.â
Bai Xiuxiuâs eyes hardened, as she understood that Huang Yuanlang was testing her, probing her identity. If she were human, without the dragon bloodline, this cup of Sky Dragon Tree Juice would be poison.
She herself naturally did not possess the dragon bloodline, but after merging with the Demon Queen, her bloodline had evolved, transforming her into an Abyss Ice Demon Dragon. That was why there had been no issues. And this Sky Dragon Tree Juice also served as proof that the dragon clans in the human world and here likely shared a common origin.
Lan Xuanyu subconsciously clenched his fists; he had already prepared to intervene at any moment. If Xiuxiu had reacted adversely to the tree juice, what Huang Yuanlang would have faced was Lan Xuanyuâs Annihilation Divine Thunder.
Bai Xiuxiu put down the cup in her hand and leaned back in her chair, her face cold.
Huang Yuanlang said, âBeloved sister, what is the matter?â
Bai Xiuxiu coldly looked at him and said, âYou knew very well that drinking this could cause a transformation, why didnât you warn me beforehand? Did you intentionally want to see me embarrassed?â
âWronged, beloved sister, wronged! Your situation is different from mine. When I first drank it, I hadnât even come of age yet, while I could barely maintain human form, it wasnât stable. For you, the most that would happen would be the full emergence of dragon scales on your skin, but you wouldnât revert to your true form. Beloved sister, this Sky Dragon Mother Tree Juice is highly valuable, thereâs only so much of it, and father obtained it from Lord Dragon Knight. Itâs a priceless treasure. Iâve always been reluctant to drink it, and I specifically took it out this time to treat you,â said Huang Yuanlang with a helpless expression.
Bai Xiuxiuâs expression softened somewhat, âEven so, you should have explained clearly. You think because Iâm from the Blue Sea Tribe, I donât understand anything?â
Huang Yuanlang slapped his forehead, feeling that she was truly difficult to handle. With his status, any woman in front of him would either throw themselves at him or play hard to get. Even members of the dragon clan were no exception. After all, being able to transform into humans was a sign of the dragon clanâs innate potential.
But the character of the person before him was somewhat odd, mostly icy, and slightly displeased at any minor discomfort. Not quite approachable.
What he didnât know was that Bai Xiuxiu was doing this on purpose, precisely to prevent him from getting too close.
âBeloved sister, it was my oversight. Next time, I will definitely inform you beforehand. Please, continue your meal; the rest of the food is quite normal.â
The cuisine of Sky Dragon Planet was generally not very good; the flavors were quite unique and lots of spices were used. Bai Xiuxiu didnât eat much.
âLast time you abruptly went to Sky Dragon City, what happened? It seemed like warships had arrived too?â Bai Xiuxiu asked, while eating.
Huang Yuanlang nodded and said, âA major incident occurred. There was a big problem with the Sky Domination Clan. It seems they lost something very important, and the explosion that happened at the Space Source Crystal resource planet they manage was more disastrous than we imagined. The Dragon Source Crystals you bought last time⊠their prices have skyrocketed, now worth ten times more, and they are priceless. If you think of liquidating those Space Source Crystals, you can give them to me; Iâll handle it for you.â
Bai Xiuxiu shook her head, âIâve already sold them. What use do I have for those things?â
âSold?â Huang Yuanlang showed a look of regret, âThatâs really a pity. Space Source Crystals are not very useful for us; our dragon clan doesnât have the spatial property. Itâs hard to use them for cultivation or anything else. But they are extremely precious to the Sky Domination Clan. They are now offering high prices everywhere to buy back Space Source Crystals.â
Bai Xiuxiu said, âSo when they caused a disturbance last time, thatâs just settled? Daring to deploy warships to our Sky Dragon Planet.â
Huang Yuanlang snorted coldly, âThatâs why I say they donât know whether theyâre alive or dead. Although the chief wasnât there at the time, the Lord Dragon Knight who stayed behind taught them a harsh lesson. They made them understand whoâs the boss in the Dragon Horse Star System. But this time, the Sky Domination Clan seemed different, as if desperate. They said if we donât hand over that thing they would rather die. It was only after the chief returned that the incident was settled. I donât know exactly how it was resolved. But now the chief has ordered the collection of Space Source Crystals. The prices for Space Source Crystals have rapidly skyrocketed and remain high.â
Bai Xiuxiu asked, âAre we also collecting them on our side?â
