Xu Huang put down the rabbit that was being cleaned and rushed to the source of the scream. He was surprised to see a flood dragon as big as a tree trunk with two eagle-like legs under its belly, two small horns on its head, and eyes as big as bells, he knew that because it closely resembled the depiction of a flood dragon on Earth. He also saw Sun Yiling lying next to the riverside rock with only a small amount of cloth on her body.
Xu Huang paid no heed to the Flood Dragon who, watching him with those bell-sized eyes, dashed towards Sun Yiling.
He picked up the pile of clothes on the rock next to them and wrapped Sun Yiling's body. He tried to wake Sun Yiling up but there was no response. Seeing Sun Yiling's pale face and blood dripping from her lips, Xu Huang was very worried, he didn't know what to do.
Ang.. Ang..
The Flood Dragon roared towards Xu Huang, he sensed the faint aura of a purple star from the teenager in front of him. He also felt a bit of a threat from him, he thought the teenager in front of him was a little different. Monster beasts are very sensitive to threats, it has become instinct.
Xu Huang who heard the roar, just remembered that there was still a Flood Dragon watching him.
He hugged Sun Yiling and decided to take her running away. However, the Flood Dragon quickly emerged from the water and flew over in front of him.
Xu Huang felt very depressed, he really wanted to leave here and take care of Sun Yiling. Unlucky! What should I do now, I should have practiced fighting before going to the outside world. Xu Huang cursed in his heart, he felt sorry that he couldn't protect himself and his people.
With such great pressure, Xu Huang decided to fight it out. He put Sun Yiling down and picked up the sword that was in the pile of clothes. He dashed towards the Flood Dragon while holding the sword in his hand.
With extremely crude sword techniques, he started hacking at the Flood Dragon's body. However, the Flood Dragon's scales were too hard, he couldn't injure it at all.
The Flood Dragon was slightly touched by Xu Huang's firm decision to fight to protect his people rather than flee on his own. He decided to test how much determination the teenager in front of him had.
The Flood Dragon wagged its tail like a whip at Xu Huang's body causing Xu Huang to fly upside down.
Xu Huang coughed up blood, he felt his internal organs vibrate, but he still insisted on fighting. He stood unsteadily and held his sword tightly.
With a ragged breath, Xu Huang dashed back towards the Flood Dragon, accompanied by a shout he swung his sword blindly towards the Flood Dragon's massive body.
The Flood Dragon didn't stay still either, it wagged its tail again until Xu Huang was flung into a boulder.
"Ang.. Human, why are you so stubborn with just that little power of yours?" With eyes as big as bells, the Flood Dragon said.
Xu Huang already knew that Dragon sense was able to speak human language before they evolved. However, he was still a little surprised to hear in person.
"Hah! How could I not, how could I reach the pinnacle of my path if, I couldn't protect my own people! With a serious tone and resolute look on his face, Xu Huang said loudly looking into the Jiaolong's huge eyes.
Truthfully, the Jiaolong was crossing this area and sensed the faint aura of a purple star.
He attacked Sun Yiling just because he wanted to draw out the possessor of the aura. Now, it was clear that the teenager in front of him possessed that aura, it was very clear when the teenager gave off a defensive determination. The purple star aura was extremely thick. According to him, it is destiny to meet the owner of the fate of the emperor.
The Dragon Race was indeed very close to the purple star, but because of the Dragon Race's arrogance he did not meet Xu Huang in person, but instead provoked him, he wanted to know his true nature, and now he felt very satisfied with Xu Huang. He reduced the size to the size of a hand, after which he flew towards Sun Yiling who was lying on the ground.
Xu Huang saw the Jiaolong's movements and became alert, he ran towards Sun Yiling to prevent the Jiaolong, but he was outmatched by the Jiaolong's small body agility.
Xu Huang was very worried and afraid that Sun Yiling would be hurt, but he saw something shocking. He saw the Jiaolong fly above Sun Yiling, extending its claws to touch Sun Yiling's forehead. From the Jiaolong's finger a speck of red light shot out and entered Sun Yiling's forehead.
A faint red light flashed from Sun Yiling's body for a few moments, her eyelashes trembled.
He opened his eyes, after it was completely clear he was surprised to see a familiar but different creature in front of him. He tried to remember, after a few seconds he screamed loudly remembering what it was.
Xu Huang, who woke up from his shock from Sun Yiling's screams ran to hug him. He didn't care whether the Jiaolong would attack him or not.
"How are you? Is everything all right?" Xu Huang asked in a worried tone.
"Mm, I-I'm fine, I feel my body getting stronger and it looks like my cultivation is about to break through," Sun Yiling was actually very embarrassed to be hugged by Xu Huang like this. However, seeing her worried face he could only weakly reply.
"It's luck to get a drop of my blood essence, huh!" The Jiaolong who was watching over the two humans in front of him said proudly.
Sun Yiling realized that someone was watching them, she pushed Xu Huang away. After that, Sun Yiling shyly asked her the creature to turn around, she put on her clothes properly after that spoke that it was over.

On the other hand, LvBu was making a fire from the twigs and wood he had gathered. While he was focused on his work, he felt the aura of a purple star very thick from the direction of the river where Xu Huang was.
LvBu immediately stood up took his spear and ran towards the river, he knew that the purple star aura was not that easy to come out, there must be something causing it.
After arriving at the river bank, LvBu saw Sun Yiling and Xu Huang with a Jiaolong, he felt it was this Jiaolong who hurt them both after seeing the blood splattered on the area of the former battle.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. The general will protect you!" LvBu shouted while carrying the spear towards the Jiaolong.
Xu Huang who heard the scream turned his head and saw, LvBu who was running carrying a spear towards the Jiaolong. He wanted to stop it, but it was too late, LvBu had already attacked the Jiaolong.
Finally, the fight ended with LvBu's face swollen from the Jiaolong's tail slap. It was because of the difference in their cultivation levels, the Jiaolong realm was a pill demon equivalent to the Nascent Soul realm, whereas LvBu was only a gold-5 core realm.

At noon in front of the cave, three humans and two beast beasts gathered. They were Xu Huang, Sun Yiling, LvBu, Xiao Hei, and Heilong who were Jialong.
Heilong decided to take this trip, he wanted to see the growth of the owner of the fate of the emperor. Xu Huang didn't mind it either, he didn't know the reason and didn't question it.
Xu Huang also knew that Heilong was from a side family of the monster continent's Long Clan and had been expelled. He was expelled because of a different breed, namely the Black Dragon, who was considered a traitor to the Long clan. What's important is that his mother is just a Jiaolong while his father is the son of a side family.
