Chapter 466

Its massive body suddenly moved, causing the entire waterway to tremble slightly.

"Time to reason with them is over; it's time to get down to business."

Noa nodded; she knew what the old man was talking about.

The next moment, Noa left the space of consciousness.

The cool air brushed against her face, instantly waking Noa up.

She shook her head, shook off the cherry blossom petals on her head, and then took out a black bead from her pocket.

Black Holy Stone.

Or rather, Night Spirit Crystal.

In this day and age, although Night Spirit Crystal are rare, their inherently unremarkable nature means they cannot provide any assistance in cultivating Magic Power, so they can only be used to make pretty decorations.

Little did they know that this thing was a treasure in Noah's time.

Only the ancient Primal Power can awaken the dormant power within the Night Spirit Crystal.

The results proved that the ancestor did not suffer from Alzheimer's disease; his mind and memory were still quite good, and the Night Spirit Crystal could indeed greatly improve Noa's efficiency in condensing Primal Power.

In the past two weeks, Noa has accumulated more Primal Power than before.

Although the Scroll King didn't know exactly how much Primal Power the ancestor in her mind needed, since this thing could improve the efficiency of condensation and also strengthen Noa's own physical strength, she was happy to "work" for the ancestor.

While Noa was focused on refining her power, two small heads peeked out from behind a tree not far away, one above the other.

"See that, Second Sister? Eldest Sister is right there."

Wow~

Xiao Guang was taken aback. "Wow? Wow what?"

"My sister looks so cool when she's practicing diligently!"

"..."

The Little Pink Hair looked up and gently nudged her second sister's chin with her forehead. "Now is not the time for my sister complex to act up. We're here to catch the ghost inside my eldest sister's body."

Mu En reluctantly withdrew her gaze from her older sister, then looked down at her younger sister.

"Xiao Guang, you've been trying to catch them for months, but we haven't even seen a shadow of a ghost."

"You don't understand, Second Sister."

"What do you mean?"

"Ghosts... don't have shadows!"

"Huh? ~~ So that's how it is? ╰(*°▽°*)╯"

Xiao Guang nodded firmly.

"That's right. But I have a feeling we'll have a huge gain tonight!"

36 I've wanted to do this to you for a long time!

Noa focused intently on refining the Primal Power, and only when she relaxed a little did she realize that it was already midnight.

As the temperature gradually cooled, Noa rubbed her arms together with her hands crossed, then looked up at the night sky.

A full moon hangs in the sky, dazzling and bright.

Noa blinked, as if she had suddenly thought of something.

"By the way, do you remember the topic we talked about before about cocooning and viviparity?"

The ancestor in my mind replied leisurely, "I remember. And I also remember you saying that if you had the choice, you would still choose to be born from a womb, because you prefer the process and feeling of becoming stronger little by little compared to the power you were born with."

Noa nodded. "After that, I asked you the same question."

"Um."

"But your answer is a bit puzzling."

Noa said, "You said... your birth was a mistake. I didn't quite understand what that meant at the time, and I wanted to ask more, but you kept urging me to go and get my Mom's pendant. So... can you explain that answer to me properly now?"

Noa could only find some records about this legendary dragon king's past in various historical documents.

But our ancestor was hero of the Dragon race. No matter what kind of history book it was, she was portrayed as a savior, a perfect being.

To be more specific, the account of Noah in the book is too macroscopic.

The Dragon Race sing praises of her great achievements, but few pay attention to the past hidden behind her glorious life.

The ancestor did not answer Noa's question immediately, but chose to remain silent.

She gazed at the little devil before her, and memories from ten thousand years ago intertwined with the moments she had shared with Noa during this time.

In a daze, she couldn't even tell whether this moment was the past or the present.

She remained silent.

Until Noa stepped forward and stood before her enormous dragon eyes.

The white, vertical pupils were like a mirror, clearly reflecting Noa's image.

"I can sense that it must be a difficult past to talk about, so I won't force you to tell me."

"But I really want to know you better, Noah."

Juan Wang has never been very interested in other people's resumes, and he would never ask anyone so many questions.

The ancestor in front of us was special.

She came from the distant past, and after tens of thousands of years of slumber, she finally awoke within Noa's consciousness.

Over the course of several months, they gradually became familiar with each other.

The ancestors admired Noa's character and perseverance;

Similarly, Noa slowly developed a rare curiosity about this mysterious Dragon race hero.

Within this dark golden waterway, a dialogue spanning millennia quietly unfolds.

After exchanging glances for a moment, Noah slowly closed his dragon eyes and then slowly stood up.

The enormous dragon's body contrasted sharply with Noa's small figure.

Noa tilted her little head up and looked at the giant dragon in front of her. "Are you going to drive me away?"

In the past, when the ancestors didn't want to joke around with the little devils anymore, they would flap their wings and drive Noa out of the consciousness space.

After several such incidents, Noa also realized that something was amiss:

Damn it, this is my own space of consciousness, how could you kick me out?

Ancestor: Hehe, I can do it, so what?

Over time, Noa began to comply with her.

Now, the old man suddenly stood up, which probably means he doesn't want to answer her question and intends to kick her out again.

Thinking of this, Noa silently turned around and waved her hand.

"I told you I wouldn't force you to answer my questions. You don't need to do anything, I'll walk away on my own."

Snap—Snap—

With her little shoes touching the water, she slowly walked towards the waterway's exit.

But before she could take more than a few steps, Noa suddenly felt a slight energy fluctuation.

She looked down and saw the water beneath her feet trembling without warning, with ripples spreading out from behind her.

Noa turned her head sharply.

The white dragon clasped its wings together, covering its entire body, and Magic Power light seeped out from the gaps.

A moment later, the light faded, and a graceful figure stood quietly on the water's surface.

Noa's pupils widened slightly, and she was so surprised that she couldn't speak.

She was a tall, beautiful woman with long, flowing hair that reached her waist.

She wore a white high-low skirt, beneath which were a pair of beautiful legs encased in long boots, and the skin exposed between the boot openings and the hem of the skirt was an absolute territory of pure and flawless skin.

The beauty slightly opened her eyes, her beautiful face cold and indifferent, a star earring dangling from her right earlobe, sparkling and crystalline.

She stood there, almost perfectly 'perfect' from head to toe, like a finely crafted work of art.

"Noah..."

After a moment of surprise, Juan Wang realized that this was the human form of his ancestor.

The beautiful woman before her strode slowly toward Noa.

She didn't possess the imposing, dignified aura typical of dragon kings.

Rather, it exudes a sacred and sublime aura that compels people to follow and marvel at it.

Her elegant steps exuded nobility, and her long white tail trailed behind her. It was a type of tail different from that of modern Dragon Race, smoother, shinier, and longer.

Noa was completely captivated by the divine aura emanating from her, and it wasn't until the woman stood right in front of her that she came to her senses.

"Little brat."

"Ah... ah? Oh, sorry."

It is common knowledge among Dragon Race that the voices of human form and dragon form are different.

Noah's voice in human form wasn't as cold as one might imagine.

On the contrary, she is very gentle, giving people a feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze.

The beauty placed one hand on her hip and the other gently on Noa's head, then closed her eyes and let out a satisfied sigh.

Noa was startled, looked up, and followed her gaze from her slender arm to her eyes.

"What are you doing?"

"I've wanted to do this for a long time, kid. Your head feels so fun to touch."

"..."

Okay, even if she takes human form, she's still that unreliable old ancestor.

"So you didn't do it before because you were afraid you'd smash me into mincemeat with one paw?"

"Yes, you are very smart."

"Haha, thank you so much."

Noa shook her head, dodging the ancestor's hand. "Then why are you only coming to see me in human form now?"

"Because the Primal Power we had accumulated before was not enough for me to take human form, but now that we have the Night Spirit Crystal, the speed at which we accumulate power has increased, and I naturally have enough Magic Power to take human form."

Noa suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

"Oh, by the way, besides patting your head, there's something else I've always wanted to do."

"What's wrong—hey, what are you doing! Stop hugging me! Let go—"

Before Noa could react, the ancestor gave her a bear hug and pulled her into his arms.

Fragrant, soft, and warm breath gently caressed Noa's face.

She used some force, but not enough to make Noa uncomfortable.

Even so, Noa was still not used to such intimate physical contact with people outside her family, and subconsciously kicked her legs and wagged her little tail in protest.

"You, you old geezer... you're just like Aunt Ischa— "

Noa tried to push away the fair face pressed against hers, but the wretched white dragon clung to her like a doll.

After struggling for a moment, Noa gave up.

She let her ancestor hold her in his arms, caress her, suckle her, and cuddle her.

"Damn it, why are adults so childish?"

Noa wondered again.

"Ah~ So fragrant and soft~ Is this the body of a young dragon now? It's wonderful, and the thought that this body will one day belong to me makes me even happier."
