"It's really a dragon! A real one!"
"The Divine Dragon has come to save us!"
Xu Ling and the others stood dumbfounded, watching the frenzied people atop the city wall. Men and women, old and young alike, ignored the pouring rain as they knelt excitedly, weeping and laughing. Their cheers gradually carried into the city. More and more people cheered as they braved the rain and surged onto the walls to see the dragon. To ordinary folk, catching even a single glimpse of a Divine Dragon was a blessing cultivated over several lifetimes.
Cheers echoed through the dark clouds and curtain of rain as people screamed themselves hoarse in wild cries.
Divine Dragons governed the clouds and rain, guarding rivers and seas. With a dragon taking action, the disaster would surely be resolved, ushering in peace and prosperity.

Now, the sincere and devout blessings of an entire county's people, calling her a dragon with fanatical conviction, were an even greater blessing. Compared to nine Sealing and Affirmations from cultivators, this was the true Sealing and Affirmation. Bai Yujun's destiny began to transform at an accelerated pace.

"How did Big White do that?"
