Chapter 802 “The Essence Blood of the Ancient Dragon (3)”
Longyu didn’t take much effort to notice Long Dai Dai who was hiding behind Dragony’s back after she arrived. Gritting her teeth: “You! How come you are here? Didn’t I tell you you’re not the one our clan is looking for? Why do you keep insisting you are the one? Our Dai Dai is right here so you should leave before you get yourself in further trouble.” At that, the wretched woman then turns back to her mentor: “Shifu, this lass is delusional. She kept trying to impersonate your granddaughter when I was out for my mission, all so she could become someone important.”
Unfortunately, the first elder apparently didn’t buy the story. Following each word that came out, his complexion sank darker and darker until none of the dragons’ present dared to make a peep. Even so, Longyu had confidence in her story because she’s poisoned Dragony with her pill already. In this woman’s mindset, there’s none who wouldn’t be afraid of death.
Yet in spite of all these beneficial conditions, Dragony didn’t care when she was given the eye signal to back up the lies. “Prince, that evil woman is glaring at me.” Moving behind the little steambun’s side, the missy’s action told everyone the truth.
“Don’t be afraid,” rubbing the girl’s hair like he’s the big adult, “I’ll help you glare back at her later.”Although Dragony is a little slow sometimes but no one can scold her aside from me!
“….” Longyu was flabbergasted by this.
How can this little wench act stupid at a time like this?
“Shifu, I…” Wanting to defend herself some more, what came next completely stunned the woman. It’s a slap and it went straight for her face, causing a red swollen bruise to come out in the aftermath.
Widening her eyes in disbelief, Longyu turns to face the exasperated senior with her sobbing face: “Shifu, please listen to me, I really did bring back your granddaughter. This one really is a fake….”
“Hoho!” The first elder sniggers ironically at her, “Even this girl herself is denying it, do you still want to keep insisting on that claim?”
This time Longyu was truly lost on what to say. She actually openly denied her identity? Is she asking to die or something?“Dai Dai, don’t you be afraid,” the first elder looks at his real granddaughter with the kindest face ever instead of the infuriated one he showed his student. “Tell grandfather here what happened.”
But rather then responding to that, Long Dai Dai consciously looks up to Dragony instead for help.
“Dai Dai doesn’t know what’s happening so I will explain.” Bringing her head out from Bai Xiachen’s back, the missy takes the stage, “This evil woman and her gang of thugs came to make trouble for Dai Dai a while back. I thought they wanted to kill her so I helped her escape. In the end I was captured by them…. Afterwards she asked me to impersonate Dai Dai. I refused so she used Dai Dai’s safety to threaten me, saying she will kill her and then fed me some sort of poison as precaution.”
Poison?
A flaring anger erupts out of the little steambun’s face at the news: “Dragony, this evil woman forced you to take a poison?”
Donning a brilliant smile at the added attention: “I’m not afraid Prince, Her Highness the Queen will surely come save me and cure the poison….”
She promised to stay here out of care for Dai Dai, as for the poison, this missy didn’t worry one bit.
