Chapter 471 - 473 Nuwa Dragon
Chapter 471: Chapter 473 Nuwa Dragon
Demonic Female Dragon??
Zhu Minglang remembered that Han Wen had a rare Demonic Female Dragon, very similar to the one he was looking at right now in the Earth Vein Cyan Pond.
However, the one he was seeing had human features that were more obvious, and the lower half of her dragon body was more slender and graceful, like a celestial serpent or a jade snake!
Describing her as a Demonic Female Dragon didn’t seem quite right. To Zhu Minglang, she resembled something out of legend…
“It’s a Nuwa Dragon!”
“Zhu Minglang, that’s a Nuwa Dragon!!”
Suddenly, Mr. Jinli called out excitedly.
Zhu Minglang was startled by Mr. Jinli popping up behind him. In the depths of the earth, by this secluded pond, Mr. Jinli’s excited shout was indeed eerie.
“Nuwa Dragon??” Zhu Minglang found this description more fitting.
Demonic Female Dragons are similar to sirens and merfolk, exuding an otherworldly allure with their features leaning toward those of a demoness.
The Spirit Girl that he had scared away earlier radiated purity and sanctity, as though untouched by the slightest speck of worldly grime, a fairy from a secret grotto. Her human form combined perfectly with her graceful dragon body, not the least bit incongruous or bizarre, but instead, it made one feel this was the true original beauty of mankind.
“Destiny, Zhu Minglang, you’re talking about destiny! A Nuwa Dragon symbolizes grand endeavors and ambitions. Emperors exhaust every effort to catch a glimpse of a Nuwa Dragon, in hopes of fortuitous fate and peace, and for cultivators, a Nuwa Dragon signifies immortality, becoming a saint or even an ancestor. It seems that even at your worst, you’ll rule over vast lands, and with some diligence, perhaps you could even dominate the grand cosmos,” Mr. Jinli said, both shocked and elated.
As a symbol of good fortune, Mr. Jinli knew better than anyone what the progenitor of grand destiny was.
The Nuwa Dragon was far superior to a Jinli.
Legends say Nuwa was the mother of the earth and the sea, the creator of humanity, and the protector of the earliest spirits; there have always been temples dedicated to Nuwa, worshiped by the people.
Even if the Nuwa Dragon wasn’t directly related to the mythological Nuwa, she was, nonetheless, comparable to the Ancestral Dragon, and even an Omen Beast!
Among Omen Beasts, there are the Omen Beast Kings.
Likewise, there are Auspicious Omen Spirits.
The Nuwa Dragon is absolutely an Auspicious Omen Dragon, with any mortal who sees one guaranteed to have smooth official fortune and be replete with luck!
It was incredible that a Nuwa Dragon appeared here, in a place beneath the earth where not even living creatures are found.
“It must be a gift following the Seven Major Disaster Omen Beasts, that must be it,” Mr. Jinli said.
“What do you mean??” Zhu Minglan asked, puzzled.
“Think about it, you went to a Blood-colored Land and collected all the Omen Beasts there. The Heavenly Slaughter Dragon is an incarnation of a Major Disaster Omen Beast, and now it’s become your Dragon. If it weren’t for this Jinli suppressing its evil Qi, you’d be drinking water with tadpoles, eating sand in your meals, hatching bugs from your Dragon Egg, and every armor you crafted would be ruined!”
“I still don’t understand what you’re trying to say,” Zhu Minglang always felt like Mr. Jinli was cursing him.
“The Old Heavenly Father wouldn’t let someone be unlucky forever. You’ve seen all Seven Major Disaster Omen Beasts, so it’s only fair for you to meet an Auspicious Omen Spirit. You wandered around aimlessly and just happened to come to the Earth Scar Dragon Pond and see a Nuwa Dragon. Isn’t this some sort of compensation from Old Heavenly Father?” Mr. Jinli explained.
This time, Zhu Minglang finally understood.
Mr. Jinli simply meant that he used to be exceptionally unlucky, never encountering anything fortunate!
Even seeing a Nuwa Dragon, a creature of destiny, was just a way to balance out his previous misfortune.
Tired of Mr. Jinli’s confusing theories, Zhu Minglang felt that the Nuwa Dragon had no malicious intent, so he approached the emerald divine pool.
Upon reaching the edge of the pool, Zhu Minglang found some petal-like soft scales in the Crystal Rock, displaying a glaze-like luster, and even faintly exuding a fragrant aroma.
Truly an Auspicious Omen Dragon, entirely different from the Omen Beasts Zhu Minglang had encountered before, he felt no caution around this dragon and only wanted to get even closer.
Zhu Minglang gazed at the Emerald Lake, and after a while, the water gently parted like bead curtains, clearly under some spell.
A delicate and petite face emerged, slightly wet, and though at first glance one could tell she was not human, she still gave off the feeling of a beautiful young girl, evoking a sense of affection.
Apparently, the Nuwa Dragon had never seen other creatures, let alone humans.
She only revealed a small horned head, maintaining a certain distance from Zhu Minglang, then looked at him with a mix of caution and curiosity…
“Can you speak?” Zhu Minglang asked.
“Can you speak?” the Nuwa Dragon slowly spoke, imitating Zhu Minglang word for word.
“Mr. Jinli, she can speak!” Zhu Minglang said joyfully.
Mr. Jinli’s fish eyes conveyed a disdainful emotion to Zhu Minglang.
“Mr. Jinli, she can speak!” At this moment, the Nuwa Dragon repeated the sentence following Zhu Minglang, her voice ethereal and lovely, much like the gentle song she had hummed before.
“Why are you imitating me?” Zhu Minglang said.
“Why are you imitating me?” the Nuwa Dragon continued in the same tone.
“She can’t speak; she’s just imitating you,” Mr. Jinli said irritably.
Zhu Minglang scratched his head.
She was merely mimicking his speech, but she clearly didn’t understand the meaning of the words.
This would be easy to deal with!
“Want a mint candy?” Zhu Minglang asked.
“???” Meanwhile, Mr. Jinli was blowing bubbles, and they were all shaped like this.
With his fish eyes wide open, Mr. Jinli seriously doubted Zhu Minglang’s pure motives!!
“This is our folk mint candy, made with peppermint and syrup; the taste is really good. You should try some,” Zhu Minglang said.
Because he was prepared to enter an oven-hot Earth Vein Fire Pistil, Zhu Minglang had specially prepared this type of special mint candy with a cooling effect when held in the mouth. Now he encountered a rare Nuwa Dragon and decided to let her try some.
This time, the Nuwa Dragon didn’t imitate Zhu Minglang; she began to look at him with caution.
However, Mr. Jinli by Zhu Minglang’s side was quite special, giving her a sense of kinship, and coupled with the human’s smile that indeed seemed very warm and kind…
The Nuwa Dragon’s thoughts were not as complex as imagined; she swam to the edge of the divine pool.
Zhu Minglang unwrapped a candy, popped one into his own mouth, and then, to demonstrate, fed one to Mr. Jinli. Mr. Jinli wouldn’t normally eat such kids’ stuff, but the melt-in-the-mouth sensation made him reveal a pleased expression unintentionally, as his fish tail happily swayed back and forth.
