Eileen, the Lightning Dragon, trembled in fear. In all her life, she had never seen a human dare to tamper with the statues of gods.

I've never seen anyone who offended Sacred Giant Dragon and managed to run back unharmed.

The Sacred Giant Dragon Constantine even used Divine Fire; she saw the golden Divine Fire sweeping across the Sky Dome.

Under the golden Divine Fire, she thought that the human lord Lance would be seriously injured and suffer physical pain.

Unexpectedly, he not only escaped serious injury, but also seemed to have suffered no physical pain whatsoever.

He had no injuries, his clothes were not torn, his face was not broken, there was no blood at the corner of his mouth, and his hands were as clean and white as ever.

He returned on his sword and said to her, "The sun is shining brightly today, so I'll invite the Dragon God Statue out to bask in the sun."

Then he moved the Dragon God Statue from the altar to outside the temple.

She had genuinely thought Lance wanted the Dragon God Statue to bask in the sun, until she overheard his conversation with the Sacred Golden Dragon, Lord Constantine.

The reason for removing the Dragon God Statue from the temple was to seek the dragon god's protection.

He feared that the enraged Sacred Golden Dragon, Lord Constantine, would beat him.

weird.

That's so weird.

The human lord was neither injured nor angry; apart from being rather pale, he appeared perfectly normal.

But why would the Sacred Golden Dragon Constantine be angry? Could the human lord Lance possibly harm him? It seems impossible.

A human who hasn't even condensed a divine essence could never harm a Sacred Giant Dragon.

Lance is a bit too wild.

The young dragon Lucia used a clean brush to clean dust that wasn't actually on the Dragon God Statue.

He brushed the dragon scales off the Dragon God Statue a few times, then poked out his bald amethyst head and stared at the Sacred Golden Dragon.

That fierce Sacred Golden Dragon is far more ferocious than any evil dragon.

Hey. It's good that he's fierce. If he weren't fierce, she wouldn't know that even a dragon is afraid of getting beaten up.

I went to fight just now, and the evil dragon definitely couldn't beat the Sacred Golden Dragon.

If the dragon lets her see the battle photos tonight and write a review, it means the dragon had the upper hand in the battle.

If the dragon didn't show her the battle footage tonight, it means the dragon suffered a loss. The dragon is a proud black dragon.

"Old Dragon, you might think you were the one who suffered in the battle just now, but actually, I was the one who suffered the most. I was the one who was injured the most. You saw it yourself. I went all out in the battle just now, and what was the final result? My domain shattered."

As Sacred Giant Dragon, you should know very well how important the collapse of a domain is to a powerful human.

A powerful being who can create a domain and develop it to my level must have spent an unimaginable amount of time, effort, and energy on it, beyond what you, Sacred Giant Dragon, can comprehend.

The collapse of a strong person's domain, while not necessarily fatal, will result in injury, specifically internal injuries. In addition to internal injuries, the spirit, soul, and strength will also be damaged.

"Seeing me sitting here drinking tea, do you think I'm mocking you? That I don't respect you, this Sacred Giant Dragon?"

The Sacred Golden Dragon Constantine nodded subconsciously and sat there drinking tea as if nothing had happened. Anyone who saw the human old man's behavior would probably think the same thing.

What you see is me sitting here calmly drinking tea, but in reality, my physical and mental strength is temporarily insufficient to support me standing and talking to you.

The collapse of the domain caused a certain degree of backlash to my soul, spirit, and body. The fact that I can still sit here and talk to you now is because I'm holding on by my last breath and because of the pride of being a strong human being.

I cannot fall, much less fall in front of my subjects.

Otherwise, the people of my territory would surely hate the dragons because of this, and might even regard them as mortal enemies. You've never been to Saint Blue, so you don't know my standing in the hearts of the people of Saint Blue.

It's no exaggeration to say that in the hearts of my subjects, I, their lord, am comparable to a god. If you don't believe me, you can ask the Lightning Dragon, Eileen.

The gaze of the Sacred Golden Dragon Constantine fell upon the Lightning Dragon Eileen.

Lightning Dragon Eileen nodded.

That's true.

In the hearts of the people of Saint Blue Territory, the Viscount is indeed comparable to a god.

"You said before that I could live for another three or four hundred years, but that battle just now has reduced my lifespan by at least a hundred years, or even two hundred years."

Lance, holding his teacup, stared at the Sacred Golden Dragon Constantine. "Old dragon, so... do you still think you were at a disadvantage in the battle just now?"

The Sacred Golden Dragon Constantine remained silent, sensing Lance's current state.

Deficiency of both Qi and blood, mental confusion, unstable soul, and damage to one's very essence. Previously, anger had briefly consumed reason, and this was not noticed.

The collapse of a domain can indeed cause great harm to powerful human beings.

There is no doubt that their strength has been damaged.

Even more seriously, the shattered domain is very difficult to repair.

From a highly sought-after, universally admired powerhouse with the potential to become a god, he was reduced to a crippled powerhouse whose domain had crumbled.

This disparity is enough to shatter the mentality of even the strongest warriors whose domains have crumbled.

In the previous battle, we were so focused on showing the old human man the power of the Sacred Giant Dragon that we completely forgot how difficult it was for a human to open up a domain. A human can only open up one domain in their entire life. Even if a person with outstanding talent can open up a second domain, they will not do so.

It takes too much effort and energy.

This is really bad.

This old dragon himself had managed to reduce a human powerhouse with the potential to become a god to an ordinary human powerhouse. "Why didn't you say so earlier? What are you bluffing about?"

The Sacred Golden Dragon gritted its teeth. The human old man was, after all Dragon God Temple First Pope. Because of his mistake, he had been reduced to an ordinary strongman. It seemed a bit unreasonable not to compensate this human old man. He took out a fruit that emitted platinum holy light from the Storage Gold Brick hanging on his chest.

The Light Holy Fruit.

It takes a hundred years to blossom, a hundred years to bear fruit, and a hundred years to mature.

This is a miraculous healing object. Even if a person who has just died eats the Light Holy Fruit, his soul can be pulled back from hell, and his physical condition can be improved, making him Light Body.

The Light Body is not a divine body; it is simply immune to most dark energy.

"I'm giving you this Light Holy Fruit. It can instantly heal your injuries and even extend your lifespan. Your sword intent is the sun, so this Light Holy Fruit is perfect for you."

As for your shattered domain, that depends on your own abilities. Even as Sacred Giant Dragon, I lack the power to repair it.

The Light Holy Fruit is the size of a human fist.

The Sacred Golden Dragon Constantine tossed the Light Holy Fruit from its claws toward Lance.

The efficacy of the century-old Light Holy Fruit is far superior to that of fruits that have been around for ten or twenty years.

I originally intended to give it to that good-for-nothing son-in-law, but it seems I'll have to go to the orchard on Light Holy Mountain and pick another one.

Lance put down his teacup, caught the Light Holy Fruit, and examined this legendary divine object.

Fruits radiating holy light.

This is the first time I've ever seen something like this in my three thousand years of life. It's a treasure.

He beckoned to the young dragon who was cleaning the scales of the Dragon God Statue with a brush.

When the young dragon Lucia heard the evil dragon calling her, she came to the evil dragon's side.

"Eat it."

"???"

This is the Light Holy Fruit, a legendary divine object. Ordinary people, no, even members of the imperial family, cannot see such a divine object in reality.

The miraculous effects of the Light Holy Fruit are almost as miraculous as the Fountain of Spring of Life in the Elf Kingdom.

Such a divine creature, the evil dragon merely glanced at it and then let her eat it?

Isn't this evil dragon being a little too nice to her, the young dragon?

Is he really planning to let her, a young dragon, take care of him in his old age and see him off in his final days? She wouldn't mind taking care of an evil dragon in his old age and seeing him off in his final days, but the problem is that even if she eats this Light Holy Fruit, she's afraid she won't live long enough to outlive the evil dragon.

Upon hearing Lance's words, the Lightning Dragon Eileen, standing to the side, revealed a look of astonishment in her eerie blue-purple vertical pupils.

The Light Holy Fruit.

Despite his domain collapsing and his body being injured, he was still willing to give this legendary sacred fruit to the young dragon so that it could eat it. Did this guy really raise the young dragon as his own daughter?

He was being a little too nice to the baby dragon.

Even the Sacred Golden Dragon Constantine showed surprise in its dark golden vertical pupils.

Without hesitation, he gave the Light Holy Fruit to the impure-blooded Amethyst Dragonling he was raising.

The little old man had heard of the wonders of the Light Holy Fruit.

Some Pure-Blooded Dragon on Dragon Island obtained the Light Holy Fruit, and they probably wouldn't be willing to feed it to their own dragon cubs.

He, a mere human, actually dared to use the Light Holy Fruit to feed a young dragon with impure blood. If he were feeding a Pureblood Young Dragon, it would be one thing, but this impure-blooded Amethyst Dragonling, was it worth his concern? "I won't eat it, you eat it. I'm not injured, the Sacred Fruit is useless to me. Your domain has been damaged, you eat it and get better quickly, otherwise I'll have to cook and take care of you."

The young dragon refused the evil dragon's offer. She said that if the evil dragon gave her one of the two Light Holy Fruit, she would taste the fruit.

One is fine, it would be a waste for her to eat it.

Let the dragon eat it himself.

"It's not very useful to me, so eat it. If you don't want to eat it right now, then put it in your Lucky Coin and eat it when you feel like it."

Lance tossed the Light Holy Fruit to his dragon cub.

It's just that one domain collapsed, and it's a domain that can be repaired, so it's not a big problem for him.

Besides, he has expertise in more than one field.

At 3,456 years old, he fears violence in the world and also suffers from Fear of Insufficient Firepower.

For the strongest beings in the human world, one domain is enough.

It wasn't enough for him, especially after learning about the terrible situation that might occur after the domain collapsed, which further strengthened his resolve to open up more domains.

He said the collapse of the domain was originally a ploy to elicit sympathy and discourage the Sacred Golden Dragon Constantine from wanting to beat him up.

Unexpectedly, the Sacred Golden Dragon Constantine offered him a Light Holy Fruit as compensation.

The Light Holy Fruit is a good thing.

However, it wasn't very useful to him.

Let the dragon cub eat it.

After all, the dragon cubs will have to face the giant dragon cubs of the entire Dragon Island in the future. They need to eat some good food to nourish their bodies and try to be more resistant to falls and beatings.

"Lance, I really don't want to eat."

"This sacred fruit is truly useless to me. Living for three hundred years or two hundred years makes no difference to me."

"Lance." The young dragon tried to squeeze out a few tears, but she couldn't. She could only put the Light Holy Fruit into her Lucky Coin with a sorrowful expression. "Don't worry, Lance, I will definitely give you a chance to take care of me in my old age. No, I mean I will definitely take care of you in your old age."

I won't bother with seeing them off at their deathbed.

Because she wouldn't outlive Lance.

"I'm saying, could you please stop blurting out your thoughts so easily? It's scaring me a little."

Lance sighed. Why was his own dragon cub still harboring the idea of having him take care of her in her old age? Had he influenced her?

"Human, I only have one Light Holy Fruit. You gave it to that impure-blooded Amethyst Dragonling. I don't have a second one."

"It's alright, one is already a pleasant surprise. If you give me another one, I'll feel uneasy."

"Why didn't you give that Light Holy Fruit to the Lightning Dragon Eileen?"

"???"

Lance asked in confusion, "Why should I give the Light Holy Fruit to the Lightning Dragon Eileen?"

"Give it to her, and you might win the favor of the Lightning Dragon Eileen. If you try a little harder, you might even have a chance to make the Lightning Dragon Eileen your family."

"Family?" Lance turned to look at the Lightning Dragon and shook his head. "She's too old. She's not suitable to be my daughter."

"???"

The Sacred Golden Dragon Constantine stared wide-eyed. What kind of logic was this human?

When he said "family," he meant making the Lightning Dragon his lover.

It wasn't that he was being asked to raise Eileen as his daughter. The Lightning Dragon Eileen gritted her teeth. No wonder the human lord wanted to adopt a Amethyst Dragonling with impure blood as his daughter.

It seems he knows that with his low emotional intelligence, he'll never find a wife in his life.

So he gave up the idea of finding a wife altogether.

"As a powerful human, you don't like strong and beautiful Pure-Blooded Dragon?"

"Excuse my bluntness, but I think humans who like pure-blooded female dragons are perverts and selfish. Pure-Blooded Dragon have long lifespans, while strong humans, without igniting their Divine Fire and becoming gods, can only live for two or three thousand years, or three or four thousand years at most."

Three or four thousand years from now, human life will come to an end, and they will die. What will happen to the pure-blooded female dragons? Will they be widowed at a young age?

The Sacred Golden Dragon's dark golden vertical pupils revealed an expression of appreciation; it was a very clear-headed human.

"I won't stay a widow. If my partner, a powerful human, dies of old age, I can easily replace her with a young, strong, handsome, and powerful human. And when that human also dies of old age, I can replace her again."

Lance was dumbfounded. Was this old dragon speaking human language? This was how the reputation of pure -Pure-Blooded Dragon was being tarnished. "No, I'm not that kind of pure-blooded female dragon!"

Lightning Dragon Eileen resolutely proved herself right.

She didn't want the human lord Lance to think she was a scumbag dragon who liked to toy with the feelings of young, powerful humans.

"I've never even been in a relationship, so I could never be that kind of young dragon."

Lucia, the young dragon, also hurriedly expressed her opinion, saying that she was not like those fickle noblewomen in the capital.

Lance glanced at the dragon cub, then at the Lightning Dragon Eileen, silently adding in his mind: He's not that kind of scumbag dragon either.
