From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 55 I Have Connections (Please Read On)
A divine being vaguely appeared amidst the dark clouds.

Then the heavenly soldiers, each clad in silver armor, some wielding swords, others raising battle flags, were accompanied by the continuous rumble of war drums emanating from the depths of the dark clouds.

"what happened?"

"Giving birth involves a lightning tribulation?"

The little carp was also stunned at this moment. Wasn't it agreed that within its authority, everything should be based on the principles of the gods? Why was it going to be struck by lightning?

"Om."

The dragon maiden opened her mouth and spat out a bright pearl that floated on the water's surface, its radiance soft and dim, like the bright moon.

But inside the pearl, a small, pure white dragon was swimming.

"The ancestors of the dragon race inscribed many laws into the Great Dao, one of which is: any offspring of foreign blood who causes the dragon race to give birth to mortal beings will surely be punished by the Heavenly Dao."

The dragon girl spoke slowly.

Of course, what's rather cunning about this heavenly rule is that male dragons can freely reproduce with other races; otherwise, where would all those races with dragon blood come from?

To put it bluntly, if you trace back countless generations of species like carp, turtles, and snakes, you might find that they have dragon bloodlines.

Because these are the races with the most dragon transformations.

However, if other races have affairs with female dragons, they are guilty of heinous crimes and will be punished by lightning to cleanse them of all their filth.

"My Lord, I will bear all the consequences of this retribution alone."

"My child, please take care of him, God."

The Dragon Girl gathered her magical power, and the Dragon Pearl emitted a brilliant light. The white jade on her body became even purer, and her previously listless spirit was now invigorated.

But this is not a good thing; it just means that she is forcibly activating her inner power and is preparing to fight desperately.

The little carp felt he should say something, but looking at the streaks of lightning in the sky, he immediately shrank back.

He still vividly remembers being struck down by lightning from the sky, and remains shaken by the experience.

He never wants to experience that again in his life.

The Dragon Ball hovered above the Dragon Girl, who looked up at the sky. The surrounding waves became increasingly violent as she moved.

The white dragon in the sky had an even colder look in its eyes. The dragon girl Ao Zhu was willing to die herself to protect this bastard child.

"Click."

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck from the clouds, heading straight for the Dragon Girl.

Then... it grazed the dragon girl's body and crashed into the shore, unleashing a large burst of lightning and fire.

The fire blazed fiercely, but the dark clouds in the sky were slowly dissipating.

"Ah... you... you missed?"

You Ming stuck his head out, looking at everything with a completely bewildered expression.

Not only was he bewildered, but the two white dragons and the aquatic creatures also had no idea what had happened.

Has this Thunder God been drinking? How could he miss such a close shot?

"Lord Thunder God, it seems we... missed."

Several members of the Thunder Department, hidden in the clouds, whispered reminders to Yu Yuan.

"I have already activated the thunder according to the heavenly rules, but there is still a glimmer of hope in the heavenly way. Since it is destined, this can only mean that the dragon girl is not meant to die."

Yu Yuan's dark face remained calm and composed as he spoke.

His eyes caught sight of the few recruits, and they all readily agreed, naturally not daring to say anything more.

Back then, those old dragons of the Dragon Clan possessed immense power. Together with the great beings of heaven and earth, they compiled numerous Great Dao Laws and established the rules of heaven and earth, which is why the Dragon Clan enjoys continuous good fortune and prosperity.

But now that the dragon race has fallen to the mortal realm, the fact that the Thunder Department is sending troops in accordance with the Heavenly Laws is already giving you face. Do you expect them to provide after-sales service?

"withdraw troops!"

Several recruits struck the bronze gong, and the dark clouds in the sky quickly dispersed.

"I didn't expect this matter to involve the Bixia lineage. Luckily, I reacted quickly, otherwise I would have offended the Golden Boy God." Yu Yuan glanced at the little carp and secretly rejoiced.

"Is this the end?"

Everyone found it unbelievable, and thought it was all absurd.

This inexplicable situation caused a chill to run through the hearts of the aquatic creatures of the Western Sea, including Ao Han. The development of events was beyond their control, giving them a bad feeling.

"Everyone, aren't you leaving yet?"

"Are you suggesting I treat you to a late-night snack?"

You Ming looked up at the group of aquatic creatures in the West Sea. He immediately activated the [Flaw Detection] plugin, and a ray of mysterious light was always aimed at the biggest flaw on the true dragon.

The white dragon in the sky was furious, but he was also extremely wary of You Ming's methods.

"God Venerable."

"This whole mess was caused by Ao Zhu himself, and he didn't want to drag others down with him. He was lucky to escape unharmed this time. If he stays here any longer, he will surely cause trouble for this place in the future."

"Please, Your Majesty, take good care of my child."

Ao Zhu slowly transformed into human form, becoming a pale-faced woman.

She held the little carp's hand and spoke softly.

The little carp's mouth moved, but before it could speak, Ao Zhu had already flown to the aquatic creatures of the West Sea.

"take away!"

Ao Han uttered two words, and the aquatic creatures used shackles to bind Ao Zhu.

The entire Fengshui River immediately surged with towering waves, engulfing all the aquatic creatures.

As the waves receded, the people of the Western Sea vanished without a trace.

"Ugh."

The River God of Fengshui sighed heavily. The Dragon Girl might not die on her return to the Western Sea, but she would certainly suffer a lot of torment.

But they are in lowly positions and have little influence, so what can they do?

The little carp also looked up at the sky. As the aquatic creatures of the West Sea dispersed, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated as well. He didn't feel much emotional fluctuation in his heart.

After all, even if he delivered the dragon girl's baby, it was out of a god's duty, not out of any deep affection for her.

But...

"Swish, swish, swish."

The baby dragon, over ten feet long, wrapped itself around You Ming again, licking him incessantly, seemingly unaffected by the atmosphere of this life-or-death separation.

But this time, You Ming didn't dodge it; he just patted its slightly immature head.

"Come on, let's go home."

A mysterious light appeared beneath You Ming, and in an instant, he returned to Yuanling Mountain with the dragon baby.

"From now on, you will be the guardian beast of our Yuanling Mountain, and this wishing well will be your little home."

You Ming pointed to the pond in front of the temple and began to speak.

The baby dragon didn't really understand what You Ming was saying, but it still excitedly plunged into the wishing well, squatting down on the bottom. The water inside was pushed up by it, but it only barely covered its belly.

This wishing well is to it what a human sitting in a bathtub is to a human.

For a true dragon, even a newborn one, this wishing well is far too cramped. You Ming plans to ask the spirits of the Craftsmen's Office to deepen it further, ideally connecting it to the underground icy pool, which would then be sufficient for the dragons to live in.

You Ming calmly watched all of this. He flipped his palm over, and a pearl the size of a goose egg appeared in his hand.

Dragon Ball!

Before leaving, the dragon girl grabbed his hand and secretly slipped the dragon pearl to him.
