"Dragonification? What did that mean?"
Chen Cheng asked in a questioning tone.
"Don't forget what you promised me. I don't want She Li to turn into some terrifying bioengineered monster."
Seeing Chen Cheng's aggressive manner, the Song Dragon immediately felt a surge of grievance well up inside her.
"Why do you call our Dragon race monsters? With that weakling body of his before, one slap would have ended him whenever trouble came. I saved him and made him stronger—what right do you have to question me?
"And don't forget, you still haven't fulfilled your promise to me. Right now, it can only be said that I mercifully saved your subordinate."
The Song Dragon's words left Chen Cheng speechless. But this concerned She Li's future, so Chen Cheng let out a breath and said,
"I apologize for my offensive attitude just now. But you have to explain exactly what Dragonification means, because this concerns my brother."
Chen Cheng had never regarded She Li as a subordinate, but as a brother who had endured hardships alongside him.
Seeing Chen Cheng lower his head, the Song Dragon felt somewhat better and said,
"He was already beyond saving just now. No sacred healing medicine would have worked, so I could only use the Dragon-Blood Treasure Tree I had condensed for forging my Divine Body to save him.
"But that treasure tree had long since fused with my body. Once implanted into him, his flesh was only that of an ordinary human. Naturally, it could not withstand the body of our Dragon race.
"He will gradually be remade. His physical strength and other aspects will all grow stronger, but dragon horns and a dragon tail will grow from him."
The Song Dragon's words reminded Chen Cheng of the special animal-gene serums in certain sci-fi works
