Dragon Raja: The Divine Man Lu Mingfei

Chapter 89 Reunion with an Old Friend 2.0

Lu Mingfei rode his eight-legged celestial horse to Xia Mi's side, jumped off the horse, and looked at Xia Mi, who was pretending to be dead.

"Jormungandr, open your eyes. I am Shafulin, a member of the Space Guard of the M78 Nebula. Come back with me, Jormungandr."

Xia Mi's original dress was already tattered, and the scraps of cloth hanging on her body were completely soaked by the rain, highlighting her shapely figure, which was neither too prominent in the front nor too prominent in the back.

This wasn't Lu Mingfei's perverse sense of humor. He deliberately held back when he struck to avoid damaging Xia Mi's clothes. The current sorry state was the result of Xia Mi's own dragon transformation. After transforming, she forcefully tore her skirt apart. Now that the dragon transformation was over, all that's left is this tattered state.

Seeing that she didn't react, Lu Mingfei helped her up, casually patted the dust off her clothes that had already been washed away by the rain, and then admired Xia Mi's newly unlocked Holy Grail battle-damaged skin with great interest.

"Senior brother, you really can't take a joke. It's just a game, why do you have to switch to Saiyan mode?" Xia Mi felt a little creeped out by his gaze, so she opened her eyes and broke free from Lu Mingfei's groping hand. After tidying her hair, which was wet from the rain and messy from the wind, she complained angrily.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she noticed Lu Mingfei's strange gaze. She immediately took a half step back, crossed her arms tightly to her chest, and glared at him, demanding, "What? Where are you looking?"

"It's not like you haven't seen it before. Why are you holding something that doesn't exist?" Lu Mingfei glanced disdainfully at Xia Mi's hands, his words full of sarcasm.

"I'm so cold! What's wrong with the airport? Did the airport eat your rice?" Hakimi started breathing again.

You didn't eat the rice, but you ate quite a bit of the rice oil from my house.

"Rice oil? Isn't that the sticky stuff that floats on top of porridge? When have I ever eaten that? I wouldn't touch it even if you paid me!"

"Rice gruel is the essence left behind by our ancestors, the quintessence they left behind. My family's rice gruel is naturally the essence I left behind. You dare say you've never tasted it?"

Xia Mi was instantly speechless. She couldn't deny it, but she hadn't expected this explanation.

"By the way, didn't you say you're willing to do anything? I happen to need this young comrade's help with a small matter right now. You shouldn't refuse, right?" Lu Mingfei patted Xia Mi's shoulder and said earnestly.

"Did I say that?" Xia Mi glanced to the side, pouted, and whistled off-key, clearly not wanting to admit it.

"Oh? Are you sure?"

Lu Mingfei narrowed his eyes, his gaze gradually turning sinister. Xia Mi instantly felt a chill run down her spine, sensing impending danger. She immediately switched to a fawning smile and changed her tune: "Oh, Senior Brother, I was just joking! Just tell me what you need! I, Xia Mi, will definitely handle it perfectly for you, even if it means going through fire and water!"

"Not bad, not bad, that's the kind of awareness I'm looking for." Lu Mingfei nodded with his hands behind his back, then beckoned to Xia Mi with his finger, "Come here, come here, let me explain."

Xia Mi frowned and reluctantly moved closer. She had barely stopped when she felt Lu Mingfei's warm breath brush against her ear. After hearing his words, her face turned pale instantly, and she quickly took a step back, waving her hands: "No, no, absolutely not! This is too outrageous! I won't do it!"

Lu Mingfei frowned and gently advised, "Xiao Mi, broaden your horizons. You need to understand one thing: helping me is helping yourself! You saw the battle just now; your strength is still too weak. If you continue like this, you won't be able to protect anyone! Only by helping you strengthen your bloodline can you become stronger. I'll just ask you one question: do you want to improve?!"

Xia Mi rolled her eyes inwardly: Who do I need to protect? You, Lu Mingfei, are abnormally strong, why would I need to protect you? And you even said that helping you is helping myself, pfft! You think you can manipulate me with such words? Do you think I've lived in vain?

But she only dared to think it in her heart, never daring to say it aloud. Xia Mi still tried to make a final struggle: "But—"

This is the plaza, it's full of students from the academy, and it's pouring rain and thunder—"

Lu Mingfei casually waved his hand, and an invisible barrier appeared above their heads, keeping out the wind and rain. "Now there's no rain, isn't there? Besides, a thunderstorm is even better. With such thick fog, isn't this the perfect barrier to block out unrelated sight?"

Seeing the increasingly strong sense of threat in Lu Mingfei's eyes, Xia Mi knew that struggling was useless, so she could only pout and nod reluctantly.

Seeing this, Lu Mingfei smiled with satisfaction: "Very good, it seems you really want to improve. Show me your dragon form again."

Xia Mi gritted her teeth and did as she was told. Fine, pale golden scales crawled up her arms and collarbone. A pair of complete dragon wings unfolded on her back, and the tips of her wings, covered in raindrops, swept across the ground, splashing up fine mud and water.

Lu Mingfei reached out and gently stroked the scales on the edge of her dragon wings with his fingertips. The delicate touch made Xia Mi tremble slightly. Just as he was about to make his next move, an untimely female voice suddenly rang out behind him.

"What are you trying to do?"

The voice was ethereal and cold, revealing no emotional fluctuations.

"Damn it." Lu Mingfei answered subconsciously before turning his head to look in the direction from which the voice came.

There stood a petite girl in a Kassel school uniform. She had a stunning appearance; her long, light blonde hair cascaded down her shoulders, the ends glistening with fine raindrops; her skin was as pure as snow, and her icy blue eyes were as deep as a lake frozen for centuries. At first glance, she looked like a meticulously crafted doll, breathtakingly beautiful.

She stood in the raging storm, holding a dark blue long-handled umbrella. Her thin shoulders slumped gently, as if she would be blown away by the wind at any moment. Anyone who saw her would feel pity for her, but after seeing her expression, they would back down. Her expression was as calm as ice, as if she would not be moved by anything.

Her icy blue eyes were clearly reflecting the two people in the scene, but upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the icy lake had only reflected the shadow of Lu Mingfei from beginning to end.

Lu Mingfei was taken aback when he saw the girl's face clearly. After a couple of seconds, he reacted, his eyes lighting up with undisguised joy. He instantly appeared in front of the girl, his speed leaving Xia Mi speechless. She had never seen him so proactive during the entire vacation they had spent together.

Lu Mingfei approached the girl and whispered, "We will not abandon each other along the way..." He paused halfway through his sentence, looking at the girl expectantly as if waiting for a secret signal to make contact.

A subtle hint of tenderness flashed in the girl's eyes, and then she spoke, completing the second half of the sentence: "We will not betray one another, not even to the end of our lives."

Lu Mingfei laughed, overjoyed. Before the girl could react, he picked her up, who looked like a porcelain doll, and spun her around, muttering nonsensical phrases like "Yoshi yoshi yoshi..."

The girl leaned quietly against him without any resistance. The umbrella in her hand fell into the puddle, but the torrential rain couldn't even touch the hem of her clothes. At the same time, the clothes that had been soaked by the rain evaporated and became clean, crisp and neat again.

After spinning her around four or five times, Lu Mingfei finally put her down steadily, his fingertips unable to resist stroking the ends of her platinum blonde hair. "Renata? Are you still called that? Or did you change your name?"

Zero looked up at him, her tone still indifferent and calm: "Zero, you can continue to call me Renata if you like."

"Zero? Good! Good name!" Lu Mingfei laughed heartily, "An old friend reunited, how delightful! Let's raise a toast!"
