The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 1133 A Touch of Incense

"Crack!" "Crack!" "Crack!" Several sounds of shells breaking rang out in succession.

Yun Ran suddenly felt like she was a genius!
They found such a shortcut to help Erdan hatch so quickly.

Especially when she thought about how the barrier would break after Erdan hatched, and those waiting to get a share of the spoils would be suffocated by the stench, Yunran burst into laughter.

Great, at least she's not the only one suffering from the stench anymore.

But soon, Yun Ran suppressed her smile. As the abbess of Qingfeng Temple, she had to be composed and maintain her composure!

Moreover, although having the fire spirit help Erdan hatch was a fair trade, it was still a shortcut.

If others find out, they will think she is a heretic, so she must not be complacent and must always know how to restrain herself!

After disciplining herself, Yunran looked towards the sky.

The thunderclouds are gathering faster now; it seems that Erdan's hatching speed is directly affecting the speed at which the thunderclouds are gathering.

This means that Erdan's hatching is just around the corner.

However, she had no experience in guiding such creatures, and if she wasn't careful, she could easily cause trouble.

This made Yunran anxious again.

"Ah, if only Long Ling were here. He's a creature born of nature, he could definitely 'teach' Erdan well."

Most importantly, it was Long Ling who found Erdan in the first place, and even killed Erdan's companion beast, which naturally suppressed Erdan and made it obediently follow the rules.

Just as Yun Ran was thinking this, Long Ling's voice came from behind her.

"Holy crap, what smells so bad?!"

Yunran: ...

In my imagination, the first to be attacked by the stench would be those waiting outside, but it turned out that it was 'our own people' who suffered.

Yun Ran awkwardly twisted her neck and saw Long Ling behind her, whose face had turned liver-colored.

He covered his nose, his eyes darting around, trying to find the source of the stench and harboring a resentful urge to extinguish it.

Just as Yunran was trying to forcefully shift Longling's focus and ease the awkward situation...

Long Ling's gaze suddenly locked onto her, his eyes filled with disgust and shock.

"Yunran, did you fall into the latrine?!"

This caused Yun Ran, who was initially somewhat embarrassed, to suddenly become rebellious.

Damn Dragon Spirit, why does she look down on her!

"Why are you meddling in other people's business? Besides, how did you get here? Weren't you already at the General Association?"

Yunran's accusations and questions finally diverted Long Ling's attention.

Especially when Yunran complained that he was meddling, Long Ling's shock and disdain immediately turned into speechlessness.

"Fine, fine, is that how you're going to talk to me? You're really ungrateful for my kindness. Who am I doing this for? I was just worried you'd get struck by lightning, so I came to check on you!"

He finally found an opportunity, tore half of the dragon soul apart, and risked exposing his identity by coming here specifically to take a look.

Unexpectedly, Yun Ran made him so sad.

snort!
Long Ling tilted his head at a 45-degree angle towards the sky. True heartbreak wasn't expressed through loud arguments!

He looked completely heartbroken and would never easily forgive Yun Ran.

Seeing the dragon spirit acting so affectedly, Yun Ran pursed her lips into a straight line.

"Crack!" Another sound of an eggshell cracking rang out. At this moment, Erdan's eggshell had already developed nearly ten cracks, and it seemed that the hard shell was not far from shattering completely.

Long Ling didn't even bother to strike a sad pose and quickly turned her head to look over.

You wouldn't believe it until you see it, but once you do, Long Ling suspects that Yun Ran might be planning to bake the eggs and eat them.

Especially when she saw the fire spirits vigorously spewing out flames, Long Ling's eyes were blatantly certain that Yun Ran was clearly settling a personal score.

However, with important business at hand, Long Ling quickly suppressed her sense of smell and went to check on Erdan's condition.

He was not afraid of the high temperatures. Of course, the fire spirits were also very sensible. When they saw the dragon spirit coming, they very 'obediently' made way for him.

After watching for a while, Long Ling said, "The external assistance is sufficient, but the internal strength is still a bit lacking. It's a pity that Erdan's companion beast's inner core was ground into powder by the ginseng fruit back then..."

However, there are many alternatives to the concept of inner alchemy.

With some reluctance, Long Ling rummaged through her collection and pulled out a few demon cores, which were colorful and very beautiful.

"I'll lend it to you for now, but you have to pay it back later. If you don't return it, I, the Dragon King, will tear you to pieces!"

After saying that, the dragon spirit raised its claws, a blatant combination of threat and favor.

These demon cores were all collected by the Dragon Spirit; he simply loved these shiny things.

If it weren't for the fact that Erdan was the one who found him, and that they had some kind of kinship, Long Ling would absolutely not have been willing to waste those demon cores.

As soon as Long Ling finished speaking, several beautiful demon cores flew over into the air, where they were scorched by the flames of the fire spirits.

The energy contained within the demon core began to gradually merge into Erdan's body.

Having done everything he needed to, Long Ling took a few steps back, almost reaching Yun Ran's side.

But in that instant, Long Ling's figure teleported, and he was far away from Yun Ran.

It was as if they were afraid that if they got too close to Yunran, the stench would be contagious.

Yunran: ...

This is the first time I've been so openly disliked by Long Ling.

Haha~
Yun Ran narrowed her eyes slightly, her teeth grinding together: Well done, she'll remember this!

Long Ling had no idea that Yun Ran had written down her disdain for Yun Ran's behavior.

Those fist-sized demon cores shrank smaller and smaller until they disappeared completely, all within a minute or two.

The second egg inside the shell had just received some power from the fire spirit, which enabled it to resist the force that prevented its birth.

Now, having absorbed several demon cores given to it by the Dragon Spirit, it felt as if its entire body was filled with power.

"Click" "Click" "Click"...

The continuous, dense shattering sounds filled Yunran's eyes with intense surprise.

As expected, humans still cannot fully understand the needs of these spirits.

Long Ling's intervention saved her a lot of time.

"You stay here and keep watch, I'll go check the surrounding formations again."

Long Ling habitually wanted to argue, why should he be the one to keep watch here!

As a result, Yunran didn't wait for his reply at all; she was clearly just informing him, not discussing it with him.

Watching Yunran's figure, it ran faster than a rabbit.

The words that Long Ling was about to say were stuck in her throat, unable to come out or come down!
