"You can actually retract it? Didn't you say it only grew recently? Damn it, my Tail and horns are completely out of my control!"

Other Sushang cultivate their Dragon Form through practice, and once it's formed, they can naturally retract it.

Although many Sushang, after cultivating the Dragon Form, do not hide it, but regard it as an honor.

Bailu was born with Dragon Horns and Dragon Tail.

However, because he had never been able to master the power of the Dragon Lord, the Dragon Horns and Dragon Tail were completely out of his control, and he could only let them grow outwards.

That's why she was known as the "Dragon Daughter of the Pharmacy" in the Alchemy Commission.

It is a respectful title given to Bailu by many who are unaware of the inside story, referring to her talent and Medicine.

After all, to develop Dragon Form at such a young age, before he has even grown tall enough, he must be an extraordinary genius.

"Wouldn't it be very inconvenient to travel on the Xianzhou if we didn't put it away?"

Lin Shuang smiled and gently pinched Bailu's smooth forehead, comforting her:

"Once you gradually master the Power of the Permanence, you'll be able to retract this horn. Judging from today's events, you clearly have talent and are learning very quickly."

Bailu listened to the comforting words, pouted, and then smiled at Lin Shuang.

Lin Shuang was pleased that she was praised, but the thought of those old-fashioned men made her unhappy again.

Shaking her head, Bailu's stomach growled several more times.

Seeing Bailu's embarrassed smile, Lin Shuang didn't waste any more time and took Bailu to Changle Heaven.

Changle Heaven and Lin Shuang's guesses were pretty much the same.

The damage here is relatively minor, so the streets are certainly not as lively as usual, but there are many people who have been relocated from other severely affected Cavern.

Therefore, Changle Heaven is still very popular.

Moreover, judging from the situation, it's much better than when they first arrived in Changle Heaven in the story.

At least when Lin Shuang led Bailu on a stroll through the streets, they didn't encounter any Cloud Knights who had collapsed due to the Scythe of Annihilation flaring up.

Although we can still hear many worried people.

Overall, things are relatively stable.

"Hmm... it does seem that the situation is relatively stable."

Bailu looked left and right; there was none of the tense atmosphere of Starskiff Haven, with guards every three or five steps.

However, I did see some makeshift sheds set up by the roadside for the Alchemy Commission (a type of alchemy organization).

Do you see some patients who are feeling unwell going for a consultation?

Bailu ran over excitedly to inquire about the situation.

Then they returned home disappointed.

The first thing she said when she ran back was:

"The passage to the Alchemy Commission's Cavern seems to be malfunctioning."

"Ah?"

"It seems to have been shortly after I slipped out. Fortunately, the Alchemy Commission had already dispatched many Physician to various Cavern, so there was no shortage of manpower for the time being."

Bailu scratched her cheek; she hadn't expected something like this to happen.

Lin Shuang hadn't expected this either.

She thought things hadn't gotten to this point yet.

Has the furnace at the Crafting Division already exploded?

"Then what do you say?"

"After we finish eating, I plan to stay here at Changle Heaven help out. I just inquired and found out that the wounded and sick from other Cavern are being sent here; we're desperately short-handed right now."

Bailu was indeed decisive in practicing medicine; she looked up at Lin Shuang:

"Thank you for today. You can go back and rest after dinner. I'll just find any branch of the Alchemy Commission."

As I was talking to Bailu, a familiar voice suddenly rang out behind me:

"Oh my—isn't this Lin Shuang! I told you this was the right way, didn't I? And you... this wouldn't happen to be your child, would it?!"

March 7th looked at Bailu's long, slightly light blue hair, as well as her Dragon Horns and Dragon Tail, with horror.

Oh no, Xing! Your wife is having another man's child!

Volume 1: Chapter 246 Lin Shuang: I'll give you two punches!

Lin Shuang hadn't yet recovered from the astonishing wisdom of March 7th.

Seeing the excitement, Xingyi immediately became interested.

He quickly stepped forward, also putting on a 'shocked' expression, and even pointed at Lin Shuang and Bailu.

"You... whose child is this?! Wife--"

"What?!"

Bailu, who was about to give each of those two a whipping from the Tail, was startled when she heard Xing's last words.

She held her Tail, unsure whether to lash it out or not, her eyes wide, head tilted back, her gaze shifting between Lin Shuang and Xing.

They didn't care about the small misunderstanding that they were being treated like children, and even more so, like Lin Shuang's child.

Since birth control is in place on the Xianzhou, the environment among people of the same sex is relatively open.

However... this kind of hobby is ultimately a minority.

To Bailu, she was still just a child!

She can't stand seeing this.

Then, Lin Shuang raised her fist in place of Bailu, who hadn't pulled her Tail down.

Bangbang punched March 7th and Xing twice in the head.

BOOM!

"Ouch—easy, easy! What if you get stupid from being hit!"

March 7th covered her forehead and pouted at Lin Shuang, complaining.

Xing, who was standing to the side, was more solid. She raised her hand and touched her forehead, which had been hit with a crisp sound.

He gave Lin Shuang a bright and cheerful smile.

It was as if the antics of just moments ago had never happened.

After beating up the two kids who weren't being watched by their parents, Lin Shuang looked down at Bailu and explained:

"Don't listen to their nonsense. They're both from the Star Rail Express; they're my friends."

"Oh, is that so?"

Bailu smiled and nodded, but the smile on her face didn't look very natural.

Did she actually believe Lin Shuang's words?

It's hard to say.

Lin Shuang then glared at the two 'childish brats' with unfriendly eyes.

"You two deserve a beating. She's a member of the Xianzhou's Sushang, a Long. She has absolutely nothing to do with me."

"So this is the Sushang —it really does look like them."

Because of Lin Shuang, the Astral Express Crew did a thorough search for information about the Long.

Clearly, the state of the Sushang and Lin Shuang is the most similar among them.

Now that he has even seen a living Sushang, March 7th feels it's even more like him.

The horn, the Tail —except for the color, they all look like family.

March 7th wanted to complain, but when she looked up and met Lin Shuang's unfriendly gaze, she obediently shut her mouth and made a 'zipper-closing' gesture near her lips.

Bailu, standing to the side, then crossed her arms, tilted her head back, and let out a soft hum, revealing a very cute posture:

"Hmph--We, the Sushang, are self-sufficient in our cycle of reincarnation. We have neither father nor mother, and I am no child. Ever since I was born from the water, I have been studying Medicine, and I am a properly registered Physician in the Alchemy Commission!"

On March 7th, there was no doubt about the truthfulness of Bailu's words.

Instead, he looked up at the stars with a somewhat blank expression, then at Lin Shuang.

"Are all the kids from Xianzhou this amazing? Belobog's kids are still playing in the mud, and Xianzhou's kids are already practicing medicine?"

Lin Shuang ignored March 7th's antics and instead asked:

"What are you doing here? And where's Welt?"

"Well, that's a long story. Let me tell you in detail. As for Uncle Yang, he went shopping separately from us."

March 7th out her chest and patted herself on the back; she was quite happy that they had caught Kafka together.

"But Lin Shuang, what are you planning to do?"

"I was just getting ready to go have dinner."

As Lin Shuang said this, she glanced at Bailu.

Bailu, who hadn't intended to speak, understood Lin Shuang's meaning from her gaze.

"After all, you're a guest who's come from afar. Let's have a meal together. I don't mind, but you'll have to pay. I didn't have time to bring much with me this time."

Bailu patted her wallet and spread her hands; she had only a little money with her, not much, but enough for the two of them to have a meal.

But it's hard to say with four people.

Lin Shuang smiled and nodded, then waved to the two of them:

"Let's go eat first! I bet you haven't had time to eat since you finished your work. Why don't you invite Mr. Welt along, or if there are any other people with you?"

"Yay! Finally, I can take a breather and have a hot meal."

March 7th suddenly became excited, but at the same time revealed a tired expression:

"It would have been better if you hadn't mentioned it, Lin Shuang. Now that you've brought it up, I suddenly feel hungry. Come to think of it, ever since I boarded the Xianzhou, I haven't stopped eating."

March 7th ran over generously, reached out with both hands, and hung herself on Lin Shuang's shoulders.

"Ha... I'll go ask Uncle Yang if he's coming over."

Xingye, standing to the side, also took out her phone and said:

"Then I'll ask Miss Tingyun. I wonder if she's gone back yet."

Lin Shuang blinked and couldn't help but smile.

Even though Tingyun didn't encounter him at Cloudford, he still couldn't escape the fate of becoming a laborer.

It's probably because Tingyun just returned from Cloudford and didn't have any work to do at the moment.

"Let's find a place first! Come on! Let me take you to the most authentic Xianzhou restaurant!"

Seeing that the group had reached an agreement, Bailu waved her hand and swaggered ahead to clear the way.

Bailu has never been shy. Being confined to her home most of the time actually makes her more willing to make friends.

So when Bai Lu met March 7th and Xing on the way, Bailu happily accepted them into her team.

Soon, in a rather upscale restaurant in Changle Heaven.

Six figures surrounded the table.

Welt, who had nothing to do anyway, heard that Lin Shuang happened to be here and was planning to treat everyone to a meal, so he happily came over.

Tingyun heard that Lin Shuang and Bailu had arranged a dinner together.

She had originally planned to return to the Sky-Faring Commission, but she immediately ran back with great enthusiasm.

To Lin Shuang's left is Xing, and to her right is Tingyun.
