"...No, why are you blushing?"

Chapter 183 Of course, one must fuse during the Fusion Stage.

The atmosphere became somewhat ambiguous.

Faced with the young man's bewilderment.

"Dragon offspring are the descendants of the dragon race."

Su Yunshang took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and said, word by word:

"Before its demise, the ancient dragon used its last strength to deduce the future."

"It saw a person, a person who could change everything... and that was you."

“I think the true meaning of the inscription on that stone tablet is that it is for me and you to have a ‘dragon offspring’…”

Upon hearing this, Xu Ze fell silent for a moment.

Su Yunshang stepped forward, reached out her hand, and gently took his hand.

That hand was cold, soft, and trembling slightly.

"Xu Ze, I need you."

Her voice was very soft, as soft as the wind blowing across a lake.

"Help."

"This……"

Xu Ze looked at her.

Looking into those clear, determined eyes.

Then, nodded.

The surrounding scenery changed again.

The mountain drew closer, the waterfall grew louder, and the pool water became clearer.

Golden sunlight spilled onto the water, creating shimmering ripples.

The air was filled with the fragrance of flowers mixed with moisture, making people feel refreshed and relaxed.

Su Yunshang took Xu Ze's hand and walked towards the mountain.

Her steps were light, each step landing on the water and creating ripples.

Xu Ze followed behind her, watching her back and the ripples spread out and disappear on the water.

They walked into the waterfall.

The water curtain closed behind them, isolating them from the outside world.

Behind the curtain of water is a cave.

The cave was small, only a few dozen feet in diameter, with smooth jade walls that radiated a warm luster.

In the center of the cave, there is a spring with golden water, like melting sunlight.

In the center of the spring, a heart floats.

The heart was as big as a washbasin, entirely golden, and still beating.

Su Yunshang walked to the spring, let go of Xu Ze's hand, turned around, and faced him.

Her face was flushed, her eyes were bright, and her lips were slightly parted, as if she were saying something.

"Xu Ze".

Her voice was very soft, as soft as the wind blowing across a lake, "I—"

She didn't say anything more, but stepped forward, stood on tiptoe, and gently kissed the young man's lips.

At that moment, the spring water stopped gushing, the heart stopped beating, and the entire Dragon Abyss fell silent.

Only golden light flowed through the cave, enveloping the two figures within it.

Xu Ze stood by the spring, looking at the woman in front of him, and for a moment he was in a daze.

In the real world, Su Yunshang always had that unapproachable demeanor.

Her face never wore any expression, like a still lake, like a mountain without echoes.

No matter who she's facing or what she's dealing with, she always acts the same way.

Exquisite features, indifferent eyes, and an aura that keeps people at a distance.

There's a reason why employees of Yuntian Group privately call her the "Ice Queen."

But now, standing by the golden spring, her cheeks flushed, her eyes shining like two stars, her fingers twisting the hem of her skirt, she looked just like a shy little girl.

Her lips, still glistening with moisture from the kiss, were slightly parted.

His words were as soft as the wind blowing across a lake, yet carried a hint of urgency and tension.

"Gurgle."

Even Xu Ze, who had many romantic relationships, couldn't help but swallow.

Both were empress-level figures, but her beauty differed from Mu Yan's.

Mu Yan's beauty is flamboyant, domineering, and carries an aggressive "I want you" quality.

But Su Yunshang's beauty is understated and reserved.

It also carries a kind of 'vulnerability' that is never shown in ordinary times.

She's standing in front of you; all you need to do is reach out your hand.

After thinking it over, Xu Ze reached out his hand.

Su Yunshang looked at that hand, and without hesitation, gently grasped it.

Her hands were cold and soft, her fingertips trembling slightly, like a frightened little bird.

Xu Ze held her hand tightly, feeling her body temperature coming from his fingertips, little by little, warm and real.

"What's next?" Xu Ze asked.

Su Yunshang raised her head, looked at him, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes.

"Next... there is another test."

"test?"

"Correct."

Su Yunshang nodded, turned around, and faced the heart that was floating in the center of the spring.

The heart was still beating, each beat carrying a golden light that illuminated the entire cave in a flickering pattern.

"Before its demise, the ancient dragon set up three trials."

"The first barrier is bloodline; only those with dragon blood can enter here."

"The second test is the inner demon. Only those who have overcome their inner fears can see this heart. I have already passed both of these tests."

Xu Ze nodded; it was obvious.

"And what about the third test?"

The woman paused, her voice lowering.

"The third step... is approval."

"Approval?"

"Correct."

Su Yunshang looked at the heart with awe in her eyes, "The true dragon will personally test you. If you pass, it will acknowledge you; if you fail..."

She didn't continue, because Su Yunshang felt that Xu Ze would definitely pass.

In a sense, this test was tailor-made for him.

Xu Ze remained silent for a moment, then released Su Yunshang's hand, walked to the spring, and faced the heart.

My heart is still beating, each beat carrying a golden light.

The light shone on Xu Ze's face, casting his shadow on the stone wall behind him, like a mural.

"How do we begin?"

Su Yunshang walked to his side, reached out her hand, and gently pressed it against his heart.

"Close your eyes, release your consciousness, and let your heart sense you."

Xu Ze closed his eyes and released his consciousness.

His consciousness, like countless invisible threads, surged from between his brows and wrapped around his heart.

The heart beat faster and faster, from once per breath to ten times per breath, and from ten times per breath to a hundred times per breath.

The golden light grew stronger and stronger, surging from within the heart and illuminating the entire cave as if it were daytime.

Then, everything changed.

The cave disappeared, the spring disappeared, and Su Yunshang disappeared.

Xu Ze stood in a void, surrounded by endless darkness and silence.

Then he saw a pair of eyes.

Those eyes were very large, as large as two full moons.

They are golden, with vertical pupils, like snakes or cats.

Those eyes stared at him, scrutinizing him from head to toe, then from bottom to top.

That gaze wasn't fierce or ruthless; in fact, it could be described as gentle.

But that gentleness is more unsettling than ferocity.

"As expected, you've arrived."
