My wife is a dragon.

Chapter 258 The Hero's First Time, Ruined by the Silver Dragon for Life (5.2K)

"Are you hiding something from me?"

The evil dragon's smirk was imprinted in Xia Li's eyes.

Xia Li looked at the girl sitting on his lap. After a brief pause, a rare look of surprise appeared on his face.

Even when facing the army of tens of millions of undead just now, there was not a trace of panic on Xia Li's face. He knew that the situation was always under his control.

However, it was this kind of calm mentality that caused huge waves under the evil dragon's faint smile.

The fact that Lucia could talk about the topics she hated the most with humorous jokes was suspicious in itself.

Moreover, Xia Li had a vague feeling since he came to this ruined battlefield.

The dragon is lying.

There are many loopholes in her words.

Obviously, he was an evil dragon that was afraid of the Demon-Exorcist Sword, but suddenly on a sleepless night, he started playing with Xia Li's Demon-Exorcist Sword.

Not only did he discover the disappearance of the teleportation magic on the Demon-Exorcising Sword, he also thought of a corresponding solution. He then planned to "escape" and ran to the Dragon's Hometown to find the old dragon for help.

This is too clever.

Whether it was her far-sighted wisdom or her decisive and courageous judgment...

None of this fits the way the dragon 'Lucia Shyvana' does things.

too weird.

Put aside the premise that she is being controlled by some mysterious force.

Unless Lucia had made corresponding plans long ago, it would be impossible for her to make a decision in such a short time.

Xia Li lowered his head and thought carefully about the many possibilities.

He was just about to control Silver Scale to retract the white mist around him, but Lucia grabbed his hands and interrupted his thoughts.

"Why are you so nervous?"

The brave man was half squatting on the ground in a daze, and Lucia patted his arm with her little hand to bring him back to his senses.

Perhaps because the carrier came from Lucia, Lucia discovered that even if she deliberately touched the silver scale of the artifact, the silver scale would not show any intention of hurting her in her hand.

This is the exact opposite of the Demon-Repelling Sword.

Lucia grabbed Xia Li's big hands with both hands, slowly wrapped his hands into fists, and clenched the silver dragon scale emitting white light in her fists.

"Xia Li, you don't know enough about the magic of this world... I will explain it to you slowly."

"This new artifact... let's call it 'Silver Scale' for now. It's true that Silver Scale's ability is summoning.

Summoning magic can be divided into physical and spiritual. Physical summoning can summon living beings such as demons or elves, while spiritual summoning is to awaken the souls that have died but have not disappeared from this world..."

"Summoning is only responsible for transmitting the summoned creatures. This single magic cannot control these summoned creatures. If you want to use the power of the summoned creatures, you must use another kind of magic - that is, 'Contract'."

"As long as the conditions you offer can satisfy the summoned creatures, the contract will be concluded. You pay them the reward they want, and they are responsible for fulfilling your wishes. This contractual relationship can be understood as the relationship between 'mercenaries' and 'employers' in the human world."

Lucia hugged Xia Li's hand and spoke softly.

Her eyes swept across the charred earth.

The pile of corpses was all within her sight. She raised her head and looked at Xia Li again, continuing to speak patiently.

"'Summoning' and 'Contract' are the abilities of this artifact..."

“However, one contract after another is too inefficient for such a large number of undead.

So, it used its power to open a channel."

"'Sacrifice.'"

Lucia said these two words in a very light tone.

“As long as the undead passes through this passage, it will sacrifice itself and allow itself to be controlled by the artifact.

Those undead souls that still hold resentment have already died long ago, and being able to "resurrect" themselves again is already a good deal for them.

Therefore, they offer their strength voluntarily and unilaterally without asking for anything in return... This is sacrifice."

The girl finished in a very gentle tone.

Her slowed voice sounded like the murmur of someone coaxing someone to sleep in a cradle, soft as melted snow, revealing the green buds of spring beneath the ice and snow.

With a strange power that penetrates into people's hearts.

After listening to her, Xia Li became dazed for a moment.

When he opened his eyes again, the girl in front of him was gone.

Instead, there was a giant silver dragon standing in front of him, with its head lowered and gazing at him cautiously.

The dawn of daybreak in the east had already appeared without anyone noticing.

The first ray of warm light fell on the huge and beautiful body of the silver dragon.

Each piece of hard silver dragon scale was hazy with a layer of soft and comfortable orange-red light, which outlined the contours of her proud and magnificent body.

The giant dragon was half lying down, with its long, beautiful neck deeply buried in his.

She lowered her head and rubbed her nose against Xia Li's, nuzzling him affectionately.

Xia Li was pushed back by the gentle yet domineering force of the dragon's nose.

He sat directly on the ground from a half-squatting position.

Beneath him was a bottomless pile of white dead bones. Xia Li supported himself with one hand behind his back and slowly raised the other hand to gently stroke the relatively delicate and soft scales on the dragon's nose.

"Lucia?"

Xia Li called out the dragon's name with some uncertainty.

There is always an uneasy feeling in my heart...

Combined with what Lucia had done, and the complete story she had just confessed to herself.

Xia Li only had a vague sense of the power of the new artifact, and he had not had time to make any attempts on it.

But the word "sacrifice" uttered by Lucia evoked an unspoken fear in Xia Li's heart.

"Whoo~"

The dragon's nose that Xia Li had stroked took two breaths from him.

Then the dragon's nose slowly raised up and touched Xia Li's lips, which was difficult to aim at, as if it was kissing him.

Xia Li was not in the mood to enjoy the kiss. He just felt his heart beating wildly, as if something he didn't want to see was about to happen.

"Wow..."

Xia Li moved his feet and was about to stand up.

The pile of bones under his feet collapsed because of his movement. Xia Li lost his balance and was pushed hard by the dragon's nose.

The silver dragon opened its golden-red eyes and looked at the human beneath it.

Obviously, those were a pair of terrifying dragon eyes, but when they looked at the person in front of them, they became incomparably gentle.

'Everything that happens is not a coincidence.'

'This is all destined.'

Lucia suddenly remembered what the Black Dragon Neil Hawke had said to her.

From Xia Li being summoned to this world, to their love-hate relationship, to the accidental teleportation during the duel, to returning to this world at the wrong time...

None of this is accidental.

To quote Neil Hawke, that is…

This was the decision she had made in countless reincarnations.

Humans always like to talk about "wins" and "losses".

If the cost of doing something is greater than the benefits, they will re-evaluate whether it is worth it.

Lucia looked down at the boy in front of her...

Because Xia Li always told her that "a man stays a boy until he dies", Lucia always believed that her boy would always be a boy.

Lucia couldn't help but start to weigh the pros and cons of what she was about to do, using human thinking to determine whether it was a win or a loss.

But as long as she thinks this way, she will find that the result doesn't matter to her.

Dragons have their own ways of being cautious.

Lucia couldn't accept the thought that sixty years from now, Xia Li would be as withered as an old tree, lying in a cold coffin with a regretful but perhaps happy smile, and she could only watch him from afar as he was buried by handfuls of earth.

No matter how many times she tried to think about it, she couldn't face such an outcome.

No wonder, in countless parallel universes, countless selves will make the same choice...

Even if she were asked to choose ten million times, her choice would not change.

The so-called "multiple choice questions" in front of her always have only single options!

"Xia Li, if you die first, I will definitely be sad."

"So, you are not allowed to die from now on."

Lucia took a step forward.

She slowly spread out the folded dragon wings, and at this moment the huge flesh wings seemed to be able to cover the sky.

She arched her nose hard again.

Xia Li, who was sitting on the pile of skulls, was pushed out by her.

Xia Li's body felt empty, and he instantly realized what Lucia was going to do.

Without caring about to fall to the ground, Xia Li grabbed the silver scale in his hand as quickly as possible.

Just as he was about to seal all the powers of the new artifact, he suddenly discovered...

The silver scales on his hand disappeared.

Stolen by Lucia!
……aisle!

At this moment, Xia Li could only hear the sound of his own strong heartbeat. His thoughts raced, and he soon thought of the key words Lucia had just told him: "sacrifice" and "passageway".

The summoned creature quickly concludes a contract with the controller through the channel opened by the artifact.

This kind of contract is a single choice, which requires the summoned creature to completely sacrifice itself without asking for anything in return in order to be completely bound to the controller.

Once a contract is formed, it cannot be terminated unless the operator dies.

Lucia now just wants to sacrifice herself!
Now, right now.

Close the channel!

Xia Li was anxious. He couldn't use the artifact without contact with it.

In a hurry, he could only pull out the demon-killing sword behind him.

"Chong-"

The Demon-Exorcist Sword that had just fallen into a deep sleep suddenly woke up again.

Xia Li held a long sword in his hand and recited a string of numbers as fast as chanting a spell.

"Three, four, five, six, seven... eight, nine..." He needed to swing his sword to unlock each level.

The Demon-Exorcising Sword was light in his hand, but it was quite large. Xia Li needed to swing his arm hard every time he swung the sword.

Too late...

I can't catch up at all!
It would take at least half a minute to completely disarm the Demon-Repelling Sword and eliminate all the magic power in the space in the blink of an eye.

But Xia Li didn't dare to really stab the Demon-Exorcising Sword into Lucia's body, so he could only watch Lucia bully him.

The giant dragon's body obscured the rising light.

Xia Li opened his eyes wide and watched her falling from the sky. The moment the silver dragon touched him, its majestic body shrank rapidly, and its terrifying claws shrank into the girl's slender and white arms.

She held Xia Li's head and kissed him deeply.

……

……

……

"Tick-tock."

"Tick-tock."

The drizzle continued, washing the charred earth.

As if God wanted to cleanse the land of sin, it always rained on the northwest border of the Lyon Empire.

Perhaps in another ten or a hundred years, the cursed scorched earth will sprout new buds after a heavy rain.

But that also takes a long time to settle.

"Wow..."

The raindrops fell one after another, never getting tired of it.

The water droplets gathered together and slid down the boy's quiet face.

The young man frowned slightly, then slowly opened his eyes.

He lay on the ground, looking at the falling rain, and the scene that just happened kept flashing before his eyes like a kaleidoscope.

Finally he sat up, his eyes red.

The girl was sleeping quietly beside Xia Li, her legs curled up, her long silver tail curled up from behind her butt and wrapped around her belly.

"…You still can fall asleep no matter where you are."

Looking at her sweet sleeping face, Xia Li showed a bitter smile.

After taking a breath, Xia Li felt his chest trembling.

He took off the last piece of clothing and gently covered Lucia with it.

Then he carefully took back the soft silver scale that Lucia was holding tightly in her little hand.

Xia Li took back all of Yin Lin's power.

But, as he judged...

Once this unilateral contract is reached, it is permanently binding.

Even Xia Li, the master of the divine weapon, cannot change this rule...

Just now.

Lucia gave half of her strength to Xia Li.

This half of power contains half of her own life.

If a pure-blooded silver dragon could live for ten thousand years.

So now, Lucia only has five thousand years left.

To be precise, it is ten thousand minus one hundred, divided by two.

Four thousand nine hundred and fifty years.

This is also the remaining life span of Xia Li.

This kind of sacrificial magic is usually only used between similar species, or when the life limit of the sacrificer is lower than that of the recipient.

In this way, the party that accepts the sacrifice can withstand the power of the offerer.

If a pure-blooded dragon were to sacrifice its life to humans...

There is only one outcome.

The sacrifice failed, the dragon fell, and humans' life span shackles could not withstand the power of the dragon and died suddenly.

However, this rule only applies to "people" on the continent of Aize.

Xia Li is not a 'human' at all.

He is a traveler.

Therefore, when Lucia sacrificed Xia Li, the rules ignored the carrying capacity limit of Xia Li as a living being.

So the sacrifice was successful.

Xia Li gained half of Lucia's life.

That proud long-lived species who could have lived for tens of thousands of years, witnessed countless human histories, and traveled through the long river of time... gave up his privileges as a dragon.

She gave up her freedom and was bound to humans forever.

In fact, as long as Xia Li was willing to use these powers, he could order Lucia Shivana to do anything and complete any task.

"You won't order me to do bad things in the future."

Lucia opened her eyes tiredly and looked at the shirtless man beside her.

She blinked, and raindrops were still hanging on her lingering eyelashes.

"..."

Xia Li shook his head and said nothing.

He was afraid that he would burst into tears if he spoke at this moment.

With red eyes, Xia Li said nothing, and silently searched in his bag.

This mountaineering bag was prepared by Fang Xia.

I have to say that Ms. Fang has considered everything. Xia Li not only found many outdoor supplies in the bag, but even found a sewing box inside.

Xia Li carefully strung the silver scales together with needle and thread, and with her poor knitting skills, she managed to make an extremely ugly necklace.

Xia Li half-knelt down and put the silver scale necklace around Lucia's neck.

He doesn't want this artifact anymore!

From now on, it will be handed over to Lucia for safekeeping.

Although Xia Li has the full right to use "Lucia", if he gives the rights to Lucia, it can be regarded as another way to give Lucia freedom.

"Just wear it for now, I'll go back and buy you your favorite gold necklace... woo."

Xia Li really couldn't hold it any longer.

Xia Li couldn't help but be touched when he thought that Lucia had made these meticulous plans to plot against him and to sacrifice everything she had.

He feels that his ability to manage facial expressions and emotions is first-class.

But after seeing Lucia's gentle eyes and the sweet smile on her face, Xia Li's expression management became a mess.

"Hey~"

Lucia sighed and reached out to hug the crying hero.

The 'hero' is the bravest person among humans...how can he cry so hard?

but.

Lucia felt secretly delighted at the same time to see the tender side of the hero.

"It's okay, I'm not dead!"

Lucia comforted Xia Li in a gentle voice.

The word "sacrifice" is a bit of an exaggeration.

But these were the exact words that Black Dragon Neil Hawke said to Lucia at the time. Lucia couldn't think of any better words to replace them, so she could only say them literally.

"Only half dead, but not completely dead!" Lucia added.

Losing half of your lifespan is, in a sense, like being half dead, right?

Thinking of this, Lucia counted on her fingers.

She wanted to calculate how long she had left to live, but the calculations only confused her.

Well, anyway, I can still live for a very long time...

She only lived for a hundred years, and there was still a lot left to share with Xia Li!
Even if it's only half, that's still a terrifying number!
From now on, Xia Li is not allowed to die!
On the surface, it seemed that Xia Li had gained nearly 5,000 years of life from her, but in reality, it was she who allowed Xia Li to accompany her for another 5,000 years.

She made a lot of money!
"Hehehe~"

The evil dragon lay on the ground and counted, then revealed an evil silver-colored smile.

After Xia Li put the necklace on her, she bent over and hugged her.

"How can you comfort someone like this... You can only comfort me halfway."

Xia Li's tone was resentful, and he simply buried his wet face in the soft curve of the evil dragon.

Lucia felt itchy from being rubbed by the head, and she pulled Xia Li's head and shouted with a smile.

"It has only been a short time since the contract was completed, and the hero can't help but do something bad to me!"

"No, it won't," Xia Li said firmly.

"I will never do anything bad to you without your consent."

"are you an idiot?"

"real."

"..."

Looking at the hero's serious expression, Lucia had a complicated expression, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.

How can a girl take the initiative?

The stinky hero is indeed an idiot!

With a gloomy face, Lucia muttered something.

She patted her clothes and stood up, looking at the rain in the sky, and her playful expression returned to seriousness.

"Hmph, I won't mess with you anymore..."

"Now, we have to complete the last thing - set up the summoning magic to summon you fifty years from now."
