The young dragon tries to conquer the world

　This made Jiaoqiu somewhat uncomfortable. Of course, it wasn't that Jiaoqiu disapproved of Moze's behavior, but since they had already come to Luofu Immortal Ship and were shopping according to Feixiao's orders, Jiaoqiu felt that at least at this moment, she could stop looking at the people here with the mindset of a shadow guard and relax a little.

　“Hey, Makze, this isn’t a battlefield. You don’t need to bring your shadow guard habits here.”

　"Sorry, I'm used to it. My job isn't really suited to being in the public eye, so you don't have to worry about it."

　"How can I not care when you're right here beside me?"

　Jiaoqiu was helpless against Moze's behavior of not changing his ways and being unaware of his own actions. This was a long-standing habit of his and could not be changed. Jiaoqiu could only turn his attention to the Luofu people around him.

　According to Fei Xiao, she would not have any opinion about Jing Yuan before meeting him. However, even without meeting him in person, Fei Xiao had ways to see a person clearly from other aspects, such as Luo Fu's demeanor.

　It's quite simple. The morale of the Cloud Cavalry on the street, the opinions of the locals and tourists, even the attitude of the people around Zhi Jingyuan, and Jiao Qiu also has his own selfish motives, which is to go and see the famous Medicine-carrying Dragon Girl of Luofu, hoping to get a way to cure Fei Xiao from her. But it seems that he has to find the time first.

　"boom!"

　Just as Jiaoqiu was about to say that there didn't seem to be any hot pot restaurants inside the Luofu Immortal Ship, but they could open one here, he suddenly felt himself being bumped. However, Jiaoqiu had been paying attention to what was in front of him, and there was no one in front of him. Moze was to his side, so it was even more impossible for him to have bumped into her. So who was it, um, how could it be Moze?

　Before Jiaoqiu's eyes, Moze was in a very strange posture. It was strange because it was impossible to do such a posture under normal circumstances. It was more like a posture in which one wanted to run away for one's life on the battlefield, but the body's instincts did not allow him to run away. His upper body was desperately trying to draw his weapon, but his lower body wanted to run away as fast as possible.

　Could it be that Maize has discovered something? Jiaoqiu quickly looked in the direction Maize was looking, but there was only one shop selling Immortal's Happy Tea in that direction. But Maize isn't a feline, so why would he be afraid of such a thing? Without hesitation, Jiaoqiu immediately took out the Flaming Chili and waved it under Maize's nose.

　"Cough cough! Ah! Cough cough! Jiaoqiu, what did you let me smell?"

　Jiaoqiu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Moze's expression had finally returned to normal. The chili powder that Jiaoqiu had prepared was only spicy for a moment, so after half a minute, Moze could no longer feel the spiciness. However, the tears that came out of the corners of his eyes from coughing up the chili powder made Jiaoqiu and Moze look strange standing together.

　"Never mind that for now, Makze, what happened to you just now?"

　Maize didn't respond immediately. He cautiously observed his surroundings and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the previous feeling had not recurred. Maize tried to move his body, but his legs were as stiff as noodles and he couldn't stand up. Jiaoqiu helped him up, and after they arrived at a relatively quiet place, Jiaoqiu finally spoke up to ask.

　"What's wrong, Makizawa? What just happened?"

　“One, an extremely dangerous creature, even a venomous being capable of destroying the Luofu Immortal Ship.”

　"What? Where? What kind of creature?"

　Moze shook his head and said weakly, "It was only for a brief moment. I still can't figure out whether that creature was my imagination or if it really existed."

　Jiaoqiu believed that Moze wouldn't use such a thing to play a prank, which meant that what Moze just saw was indeed real. But what exactly it was, Moze's memory alone was not enough to determine. In order to leave as many traces as possible, Jiaoqiu could only ask Moze to strengthen his memory.

　"I didn't see anything strange, it's just that only Moze can see it. Describe what you saw."

　"A huge black shadow instantly covered the entire Luofu Immortal Ship. Within the shadow, not a single person on the Luofu Immortal Ship survived; they were all dead."

　"The shadowy figure is dead? Or was what you saw a demonic entity?"

　"No, it wasn't the Demonic Yin Body. The Immortal Ship people didn't die from the collective outbreak of the Demonic Yin Body, nor did they die from the Abundant Slaughter. It was because black rain was falling from the sky, and no one could escape. I can't see what happened next."

　"Hmm, I've neither heard of nor seen this situation in any books. Perhaps it's the effect of fate? Of course, it could also be some unknown side effect. You rest for a while, and I'll report this to General Feixiao. If it's not a coincidence, then this journey is destined to be anything but peaceful."

　Moze nodded, but out of doubt, he still mustered up the courage to look around. This time, however, he couldn't see anything at all. Moze was a little incredulous, so he quickly ran back to the previous spot and looked around again. Indeed, the previous feeling was no longer there, because the previous feeling was too clear.

　The feeling of opening his mouth but being unable to inhale, the struggle between his brain's instincts and his body, the fear and pain that pierced Makizawa's heart. All of this was clearly real, yet everything seemed normal. Was it just his imagination, or a lingering effect from his family?

　"Hey, Uncle Mu? It really is Uncle Mu! Hello! And this strange guy, or Uncle, you look a little pale. Are you alright? What are you doing here?"

　"Hmm? Oh, it's Su Chang. Long time no see. And this is your Uncle Mo." Jiao Qiu had just finished reporting the situation to Fei Xiao and received a reply that he was paying close attention and continuing to observe. Jiao Qiu was about to tell Mo Ze Fei Xiao's opinion when he heard a familiar voice. He turned around and found that it was Li Su Chang.

　"Uncle Mo, what's wrong? I'm a Cloud Cavalryman now, so feel free to tell me if there's anything you can't handle."

　As Li Sushang spoke, she hopped and skipped to show Jiaoqiu her uniform as a Yunqi soldier. This reminded Jiaoqiu of the first time he met Sushang. At that time, Sushang was still sucking her fingers in her mother Suyi's arms. As Sushang grew up, Jiaoqiu accompanied her to skip school and took her out to eat. Then they were scolded by Suyi together.

　Such memories are still vivid in her mind, but recalling them only makes Jiaoqiu feel that she has aged a lot. Seeing that the color in Moze's face is slowly returning, Jiaoqiu knows that Moze should be alright. She then turns to Li Sushang and says, "Little Sushang is going to participate in the martial arts ceremony."

　"Yes, yes, I'll join! And I'm not joining alone; my best friend Gui Naifen and I have already signed up. By the way, what are you here for?"

　"Of course we're here to participate in the martial arts ceremony. The friend you mentioned, is that the stranger you met while you were on duty?"

　"Yes, I was just about to go find her. She should be nearby too. Oh, over there."

　Li Sushang shaded her eyes with her hand and looked out. Sure enough, she saw Gui Naifen not far away. However, there were two children with Gui Naifen. Wait, what are they doing?

　Li Sushang found it hard to believe the incredible scene before her. Gui Naifen was indeed a juggler, and it was normal for her to perform juggling. The juggling act of cutting a person in half with a knife was true, but why was the person holding the knife a little girl?!

　And why is that black sword almost as tall as Gui Naifen?!

　Wait, why is there an even bigger sword next to it than that black sword?

　Why did the knife fall?!?

　Without a second thought, Li Sushang immediately rushed towards Gui Naifen's side, where she usually practiced swordsmanship.

　All her efforts paid off at this moment. Just as the little girl was about to swing the black knife down, Li Sushang anxiously drew her Xuanyuan Sword and rushed forward. Just as the black knife was about to fall on Gui Naifen, Li Sushang's Xuanyuan Sword finally arrived in time and blocked the black knife.

　"Hey, why are you bothering us? This is my first time performing acrobatics." Yun Li was slightly unhappy that Li Sushang had interfered with her.

　"Juggling? Is this how you juggle? Such a big knife, not to mention the weight of the blade, it must be quite heavy. Xiao Guizi, who is this little girl? Why did you let her be your assistant?"

　"Hey! Changchang's here! Let me introduce our surprise guest today! The genius newcomer of the Cloud Cavalry—Miss Su Chang! Come on, everyone, type 'Welcome Miss Su Chang' in the chat!"

　"H-Hello everyone, I'm Su Chang... What 'genius newcomer'?! Don't add any more scenes for me without my permission. If our boss finds out, he'll make me suffer. Also, Yu Zhaoli said you were hit and thrown into the air. What's going on now? What if such a big knife hurts you? And who are those two people?"

　"Hey!"

　"Eh!"

　While Li Sushang was still arguing with Gui Naifen about not paying attention to the little girl, the little girl had already raised the Mad Strike Giant and brought it down. The Mad Strike Giant unexpectedly landed accurately on the stone on Gui Naifen's body.

　"Crack! Click!"

　"Wow!"

　Unlike the previous incident where she broke a large rock on her chest, this time the rock was almost shattered into tiny fragments. The young girl picked up the monstrous beast from Gui Naifen's body. Just as Li Sushang was still in a daze, "Clang!" The familiar sound of a gong rang out. Gui Naifen lifted the cloak-like thing on her body and then jumped off the acrobatic stage.

　"Breaking a boulder on my chest! Thank you, thank you everyone! If you have money, please support me financially; if you don't have money, please support me with your presence. Xiao Guizi thanks you all! That concludes today's performance. See you next time!"

　Ignoring the various comments on the screen such as "Let me see again!", "I've never seen anyone break a boulder with their chest before!", and "Streamer, streamer, I hope you're happy. How can I live without you, streamer!", Gui Naifen ran to Li Sushang's side, took her hand, and asked, "What's wrong, Sushang?"

　"You're asking me what happened? That's like breaking a boulder on your chest! And look at the swords they're using, what if they accidentally hit you with one? Honestly."

　"Oh, Changchang, those two are really good. Look at those two weapons, they're almost taller than me! And they're wielding them like it's nothing. Plus, I brought the light cone you gave me too. Okay, don't be angry. I'll treat you to some taro bubble tea."

　Compared to the interaction between Li Sushang and Gui Naifen, Yun Li tried to lift up the little girl's berserk giant beast.

　"Hmm, it's heavy. You'd be perfect to be my junior sister. Let me tell you, my grandfather is incredibly powerful. By the way, my grandfather is still at the Shence Mansion. I'll take you to meet him and let him see if there are any enhancements to your sword."

　Yun Li grabbed the little girl and was about to leave, but before leaving, she said to Li Sushang, "Your sword is also very good. This sword is practically your master. Well, cherish this sword."

　After saying goodbye to Gui Naifen, Yun Li led her young daughter toward the Shence Mansion. While cleaning up the mess on the ground, Gui Naifen told Li Sushang about how she was knocked unconscious by her young daughter and Yun Li, and how the three of them played together and Gui Naifen suddenly had the idea to do some juggling. Jiao Qiu naturally recognized that it was Yun Li. It seemed that General Huai Yan had arrived first, and the timing was perfect.

　Jiaoqiu also told Li Sushang that he was going to Shence Mansion. After agreeing to have dinner together with Li Sushang when they had time, Jiaoqiu and Moze left and headed to Shence Mansion. However, when they arrived at Shence Mansion, it seemed to be very lively inside.

　"Mom... Kafka, Silver Wolf, and Firefly, you've all come to Luofu! Wow, I'm so happy."

　"Xing, you mustn't let yourself be fooled by other women again."

　"Kafka is me, she's like a mother to me. A mother wouldn't lie to me, don't worry, March."

　"In March, Xing won't listen to what you're saying."

　"Yes, and I've also become friends with Lord Fu Xuan."

　"I already told you not to try and get close to me!"

　"We meet again, Firefly. You look much better than the last time we met. What kind of song would you like to hear this time?"

　"I didn't expect to see you here, Origami Bird. We can talk about the song later. Your clothes are so pretty."

　"Grandpa, Grandpa, look at this weapon! Isn't it amazing? The teeth on it are even harder than ordinary metal!"

　"Hehe, it's quite lively, isn't it, Jingyuan?"

　Volume 1: 537 - A Visit to the Shence Palace

　A purple wind dragon?

　Although the young girl didn't know that Kafka possessed the ability of Word Magic, her first impression of Kafka was that of a hunter who had sneaked up to the Frostwing Wyvern and accidentally kicked a rock, causing the Frostwing Wyvern to start roaring incessantly. The ice crystals on its tail quickly sent the hunter home. In short, it was a rather noisy feeling.

　A gray fire dragon?

　Silver Wolf was holding the same model of game console as the little girl, but Silver Wolf didn't give the little girl any clear feeling. However, since Silver Wolf could appear here, it meant that Silver Wolf was definitely not an unknown person. Perhaps if he changed his clothes, the little girl might remember him. It's like the fire dragon, isn't it? It's everywhere, but every time it ends up becoming the little girl's food.

　A green praying mantis?

　The firefly gave the young girl a feeling that was different from the strength hidden beneath her delicate appearance. The young girl also sensed that something strange was happening to the firefly, as if the nutrient bag under the Great Restoration Honey Worm had been punctured and was leaking nutrient fluid. However, the Great Restoration Honey Worm could collect it again, but the firefly seemed unable to do so. Moreover, the young girl instinctively felt that the firefly must have some kind of jingling prop.

　Oh, and there's also a pink Bubble Fly Dragon?

　If you think that young girls can be distinguished by their color, then you are too superficial, cough cough, no, you are too right. To some extent, Jiaoqiu's personality and attitude are indeed slippery. And although she doesn't seem to be aggressive, the poison that Jiaoqiu carries, even if it's not poison, can still cause accidental harm if she just sprinkles out all the chili powder, such as if it all gets into her eyes.

　And the deep purple Nargacuga?

　The young girl remembered him. He had once looked at her with an interrogative gaze on the road, and the spying in his eyes made her instinctively glare back, resulting in the same reaction as before. However, after realizing that he was too weak, she lost interest. With his attack methods, he probably couldn't break through her defenses. This was similar to the Swift Dragon, wasn't it? Because the Swift Dragon couldn't break through her defenses either.

　Oh, and there's a cooled-down Lavasioth? But why is it so small?

　Although I feel a little sorry for General Huaiyan, he really is shorter than the young girl. Compared to ordinary humans who care about their height, the young girl and Lanmei don't care much about the height of upright creatures. First, they won't use upright creatures as food, so their height won't make a difference. Second, among upright creatures, the young girl and Lanmei's height is normal, so they don't care at all.

　As her newly made playmate, and one who shared many of the same elements as her, the young girl naturally entrusted the Berserker Giant to her with complete peace of mind. The young girl was unaware that Yun Li had borrowed the Berserker Giant from her to show it to Huai Yan. This was mainly because, as the successor of the Flame Wheel Eight Leaves, Huai Yan naturally wanted to appreciate such a novel weapon.

　When the young girl and Yun Li ran in, Huai Yan had already noticed her. Without Yun Li and Jing Yuan introducing her, Huai Yan guessed that one of the people he was going to see was the young girl, since her features were so obvious. But didn't Jing Yuan send Yan Qing to invite them? Why was Yun Li bringing them? And why wasn't the other one here?

　Just like the steady gaze of the Lava Dragon, Huai Yan's gaze was filled with care and appreciation, so it did not arouse the girl's resentment, unlike that of the Mo Ze. From Yun Li, Huai Yan also learned why only the girl came. It turned out that they had not been together before. Finally, Huai Yan focused his gaze on the Berserker Giant in Yun Li's hand.

　The little girl didn't expect Lanmei and Robin to appear here. She ran to Robin and Lanmei with her short legs, pointed to her mouth, and clearly wanted to eat.

　The robin pulled out various snacks such as maltose and brittle, which she had bought today at a place not far from the hot spring. They were originally meant for her young daughter, so she just brought them out now.

　Lanmei took out a serving of candied fruit, which included various fruits such as berries, plums, and grapes. The surface of the candied fruit was visibly coated with a thin layer of icing sugar, making it look very delicious.

　The little girl wanted to eat both kinds of snacks, but for her, there were basically no choices in her life. She couldn't have both fish and bear's paw. What she liked most was a bite of bear's paw and a bite of fish. So without thinking, she grabbed a handful of candy and stuffed it into her mouth, then grabbed a handful of dried fruit and stuffed it into her mouth. Her mouth bulged out like a squirrel's, and then she slowly chewed.

　In fact, Yun Li had already communicated with the young girl's Berserker Giant. The Berserker Giant was currently experiencing both pain and pleasure. As for the pain, the young girl didn't really take good care of it. If it weren't for Melalu and the young girl's occasional visits to the hunters, the Berserker Giant would probably have truly suffered...

　The lamps are unusable for various reasons, including rust and metal fatigue.

　But as for fun, most monsters don't last a single round against the Berserker Giant. And compared to the days when she followed Bai Feng, the number of monsters that died at the hands of the little girl was far greater. Moreover, it wasn't just those large monsters; she even took on some common monsters.

　Of course, there were also some serendipitous encounters, such as being strengthened by the dwarves with Orichalcum steel, and the Berserker's body even having runes engraved on it to strengthen and protect it. In short, the Berserker lived a happy life with the little girl, and in exchange, Yun Li's old buddy was naturally also played with by the little girl.

　Yun Li's Iron Sword is shorter than the Berserker Giant Fierce Sword, so the little girl was a bit unaccustomed to it at first. The Iron Sword's real name is [Molten Iron Sword Skeleton], which is an unfinished sword blank into which Yun Li fused the demonic sword she had stolen. Therefore, it is naturally inferior to the Berserker Giant Fierce Sword in terms of sharpness and smoothness of use.

　Lanmei was curious about who the little girl next to her was, so she bent down slightly and asked, "Xiaoguang, is she a friend you just met?"

　The little girl swallowed the dried fruit in her mouth in a few bites and nodded in acknowledgment. The robin casually peeled a piece of candy and handed it to the little girl's mouth, saying, "They said they were from Zhu Ming. By the way, Xiao Guang, where did you go this afternoon? We couldn't find you after we came out of the hot spring. If Yanqing hadn't hoped that Lan would come, we wouldn't have come to Shence Mansion."

　"Youxiating, Ruomuting, Buyehou, snack stalls, Qingwanzhai, Xiaoguizi, Changchang..." The little girl was counting on her fingers what she had done that afternoon, but the last few words were not very clear because she was chewing on dried fruit, but the robin still caught them.

　"Wait, Hikaru, didn't you just say two names?"

　"Mmm~ Changchang and Xiaoguizi perform juggling together~ They can even cut stones with swords~"

　Speaking of juggling, the young girl spoke with great interest, lifting Yun Li's old iron and making a chopping motion. Lan Mei and the robin had never seen or even heard of juggling before. Seeing the young girl's expression, they thought she had hurt someone. Their appearance was just seen by Qing Que, who was hiding from Fu Xuan.

　Qingque remembered seeing that video in the Luofu card player group. After opening it, she showed it to Lanmei and Robin. In the video, the little girl raised the Mad Strike Giant Fierce Sword high and slashed it down at the person on the table. Such a dangerous scene scared Robin a little and she dared not watch. Lanmei didn't think anything of it. Next to the little girl, a woman was holding Yunli's iron sword back to prevent her from swinging it down.

　"Xiao Guang's 'Xiao Gui Zi' should be Gui Naifen, and 'Shang Shang' is Li Sushang, a new recruit in the Yunqi Army. I often see them doing live streams of acrobatics together during holidays. They are best friends."

　The robin clutched its chest, saying with some concern, "Is this supposed to be a juggling act? It's a bit too scary."

　"Actually, it's nothing. Those stones and props are specially made. They will break if you hit them with a little force. Juggling is all about evoking and pulling emotions. Besides, Gui Naifen is one of the best performers on Luofu Fairy Boat, so the audience can't really see any flaws."

　As Qingque spoke, she glanced at Fu Xuan's direction. Her diviner was chatting with Jing Yuan and the Starry Sky Train Group. "Sigh, I really want to play a hand of cards. Every time the diviner and General Jing Yuan start chatting, they can talk for ages. Looks like I'm going to go hungry again tonight. Is there anything to eat?"

　"It contains sugar and dried fruit."

　Robin took out a few pieces of candy from her pocket and placed them in Qingque's palm, while Lanmei took out some dried lemons. Qingque swallowed and said, "Thank you, but I won't eat the dried lemons. I feel like eating them will only make me hungrier." Just as Qingque was wondering when this meeting would end, Yunli arrived.

　"Hello, I am Yun Li, a swordsman from Zhu Ming Immortal Ship. You must be the older sister that Grandpa mentioned."

　"Yes, it's me. What can I do for you?"

　"Well, my grandfather wants to meet you. By the way, as your sister's good friend, and I'm making this clear upfront, I'd like to recommend her to be my grandfather's disciple. She has excellent physical abilities, and my grandfather is General Huaiyan of the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship, as well as the supervisor of the Flame Wheel Eight Leaves. He would be the most suitable person to guide her."

　"Ah, wait a minute, you've been playing with her for so long, you don't know, little one, what her name is, do you?"

　Lanmei immediately grasped the key point, and Yunli realized that she had spent several hours with the little girl without asking her name. Yunli could only stammer and couldn't say anything, so she asked the little girl in a low voice, "Um, you probably don't know what my name is either."

　"Yunli~" The little girl's crisp words completely shattered Yunli's spirit. Seeing Yunli's face getting redder and redder, the robin knew that the teasing should stop here. Just now, Yunli said those words about thinking things through for the little girl. Anyone with eyes could see that Yunli wanted to maintain her status as the older sister in front of the little girl. But she didn't expect that in the end, she not only failed to maintain it, but also made a fool of herself.

　The robin stepped forward and patted Yun Li's head, saying softly, "Her name is Xiao Guang. Alright, your grandfather is still waiting over there. Let's go over there."

　The robin reached out a hand and grasped the little girl's hand, leading her...

　She walked forward, and the little girl, while holding the robin in her hand, stretched out her tail and tied it to Lanmei's calf. The three of them walked in front of General Huaiyan in this strange posture.

　"Young friend, this sword is truly excellent. Although it looks vastly different from the weapons forged on Zhu Ming Immortal Boat, one can see the craftsman's passion for it just from the weapon itself. However, I have a favor to ask."
