Oh ho, brother-in-law, are you eating alone?

The white-haired dragon and the blue-haired dragon suddenly felt as if they were possessed by someone from history, and the more they looked at Master Huang, the more interesting he became.

Especially when there's no one else around.

Warfarin rubbed her eyes to indicate that she didn't like daytime, and then went upstairs.

Huang Cao: "I just had someone buy these from the capital of Yan Country. They have both savory and sweet tofu pudding, as well as vegetable and meat buns."

The two dragons exchanged a glance and, as if on cue, said, "Then we shall respectfully comply."

Meanwhile, Jie, floating in the sky, watched this scene with gritted teeth.

"I want to eat it too!"

Floating in the sky, Jie bit hard at Ling's horns with her teeth. To be honest, she hadn't tasted food in a long time.

But miraculously, Jie could smell the surrounding scents and sights; otherwise, she really didn't know how she would have endured such a long period of solitude.

Of course, the consequence of perceiving sights and smells is...

So many years have passed, and she has completely transformed into Master Huang's appearance.

Both in appearance and in substance.

However, perhaps due to a shared understanding, the two dragons couldn't help but mention their younger or older sister while eating breakfast.

Ling pointed with her slender fingers to the necklace on Master Huang's chest, and the latter placed the necklace on the table.

"Actually, I've wanted to tell you this for a long time. I can sense that the soul within the necklace has become nearly perfect, even completely repaired and perfected, but until now, Jie's soul has not returned to its original form."

Huang Cao sighed. He didn't understand the intricacies of the soul, and he couldn't find any information about Jie's soul in the Originium.

After the soul of this Sui was repaired, Huang Cao began to suspect that Jie's soul had returned to the Originium, but unfortunately he had searched for so long without finding it.

Seeing the atmosphere fall silent, Lingye felt as if he had said something he shouldn't have.

She could sense that the soul within the necklace was nearing completion, which proved that the man before her hadn't lied before, and truly could repair her sister's soul.

They only mentioned repairs, but made no promise that he would definitely wake up.

Realizing that he might be putting Master Huang in a difficult position, Ling quickly waved his hand:

"Let's put the matter of Jie aside for now and get back to the main topic, such as how Yan Country should coexist with Utopia in the future."

Nian had no intention of getting involved in the "adult" world; he simply added chili water to his tofu pudding.

"I haven't decided on the specific method yet, but if True Dragon and the people he brought really want what's best for Yan Country, I can provide a lot of resources to support them, so the chances of success shouldn't be low."

"By the way, if you two have time, you can also wander around Utopia and help me deliver these Utopia passes to your brothers and sisters. I'd like to use a respectful title, but I don't know what to call them."

Reiwa nodded after putting the card away.

After breakfast, the midday and afternoon hours are very peaceful.

At noon, after a quick lunch, Warfarin snuggled in her husband's arms for a while before leaving.

After all, she is the Minister of Health of Utopia.

Responsible for the research and development and approval of various pharmaceutical products; the work hours are short, but equally important.

Theresia has also returned to Kazdel, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, she won't be back for a few days.

This was true before, because as the Demon King, she had many things to deal with.

After saying goodbye, Shu returned to Great Wilderness City. The farming work had to continue, as promised.

After two of the three Sarkaz left, only Lamian and Shibo remained at home.

Both of them are homebodies, with the former having already delegated everything to Aifarnir was raised entirely by Banshee.

Xi was originally an "unemployed bum," whose daily job was simply to maintain the stability of the teleportation portal.

"Ms. Lamian, how long have you known Master Huang?" Nian asked with great curiosity.

Because she had already heard that the powerful Banshee in front of her was the second woman to join Master Huang's life, and there was no precedent before her.

It could be said that Lamian's initiative led to the current situation, which is why the bed in Master Huang's house is getting bigger and bigger.

When Nian went to find Xi, he opened the door and saw Xi drawing on his bed, which was over 100 square meters in size.

Huang Cao's room occupies 40% of the second floor, with the bed alone covering over 100 square meters.

And this trend is expected to continue to grow in the future.

Lamian placed her hand on Huang Cao's shoulder, a gentle smile playing on her lips, soft and endearing.

"Perhaps that's courage. I struggled back then because I was a bad woman who broke up other people's families, but Warfarin didn't care at all. She said that as long as there is love, she doesn't mind anyone else joining in."

"I was confused at the time, but what Ah Cao did benefited my tribe a lot. Perhaps at first it was a feeling of gratitude to repay her, but later I was gradually attracted to Ah Cao, and it eventually evolved into an inseparable love."

Lamian gave a slightly mischievous smile. "To be honest, Ah Cao is younger than most of us."

This was surprising, at least for the young man.

She had originally thought that such a reliable man must be at least a thousand years old. Putting aside his youthful appearance, Huang Cao's actions were far too mature and reliable.

So, all this time, Shu and Xi haven't told me his real age?

Absolutely wicked!

So, does that mean Huang Cao should call me "older sister"?

Suddenly, Nian thought of something, and a smile appeared on her lips, but soon, Ling gently tapped her head.

Ling said, "Age is not the only criterion for judging size. At least he's this old, and he's still so mischievous."

Chapter 618 Andon and the True Dragon

After the dragons had played around in the living room for a while, it was evening.

I have to leave again...

The two dragons glanced at Huang Cao lying on the sofa with complicated expressions. Lamian naturally noticed this as well, but didn't say anything.

Emotions are like wine; brewing them too early is bad, and brewing them too long is also bad.

Only feelings that blossom at the most opportune time are truly the best for both people.

Treasures that are too easily obtained are not necessarily valuable.

Even Goradya, who had just joined the family, had known Master Huang for over eighteen years.

Even the Black and White Empresses were products of the Four Emperors War many years ago, and were already in their twenties when they actually joined this family.

So, you lovelorn dragon, you should wait a few more years. At least let me see your courage to fight for it.

It's not like we don't even have the courage to say it now.

Linghe Nian and his companion walked arm in arm into the teleportation scroll. However, before leaving, the drunkard also took a sip of fine wine from Master Huang.

I guess I'll be asleep for several more years before I wake up.

On the other hand...

The True Dragon, who had been traveling for several days in the land of Utopia, encountered a Sankta.

In the golden twilight, Andon was drawing something under Golden Tree when he spotted the True Dragon surrounded by a large retinue in the distance.

He knew the True Dragon's appearance very well, because as a Lateran who could recognize Master Huang at first glance, Andon paid close attention to international political trends.

The appearance of the Yan Country's True Dragon was still very mysterious more than ten years ago, but with the development of internet technology, most Yan Country later learned what their country's emperor looked like.

The True Dragon was also very curious: how could there be Lateran in Utopia?

Since Utopia's history began in Kazdel, it now occupies half of Terra's territory.

This country has almost every race, but there are no Lateran, or more accurately, Sankta.

Small countries like Siracusa are not even worth mentioning. There are no Sankta in Sargon, or rather, they would have voluntarily packed their bags and gone home after learning that Utopia had conquered the country.

Therefore, there is not a single Sankta in this vast utopia.

This wasn't because Master Huang was trying to curry favor, but rather because of his faith.

But now, the True Dragon has seen this Sarkaz.

He gestured for the imperial guards following behind to stop, and walked alone towards the small Golden Tree that was only a little over ten meters tall.

"Hello, sir, may I ask you something?"

"Of course, Your Excellency, True Dragon."

Upon learning that the other party knew his identity, True Dragon showed no surprise, only a sense that the other party was one of his own kind.

The True Dragon sat down beside him, looking at the nearly completed painting.

True Dragon: "Sir, when did you arrive here? You don't seem to be a Utopia person."

"I am indeed not a Utopian. I came here only to resolve my doubts and strengthen my faith, and as it turns out, I made the right choice," Andon replied.

True Dragon didn't want to ask too many questions, after all, the people on this street all had their own unspeakable stories.

It might just be another plan that Master Huang had in mind, or it might just be an ordinary person who thinks too highly of himself.

What is Andon painting? He is painting the fields of Utopia and the people working on them.

It is truly a time of peace and prosperity, unlike any other time of peace and prosperity in any other country.

A world where no one is unhappy, yet almost everyone has experienced unhappiness at some point.

Whether one later finds happiness under the rule of Utopia, or is born into Utopia.

Unhappiness became the final period for many utopian individuals before they reached adulthood.

And after that, a new story begins.

Therefore, every Utopian clearly understands that their current happiness is not a given, but the result of the joint efforts of countless predecessors and lords.

I want to protect this beautiful world so that it can shine on more of my fellow countrymen.

Andon shared with the True Dragon everything he had seen and heard during his travels in Utopia.

The two chatted from evening until noon the next day, without even feeling hungry.

It wasn't until the Imperial Guards reminded them that the two suddenly realized what was happening.

Perhaps the reason for such speculation is that they all harbor aspirations for something better.

The two men ate the simplest dry rations and continued their conversation; their atmosphere even infected the imperial guards nearby.

"I've seen all your paintings; Utopia truly is a wonderful world."

The True Dragon felt he no longer needed to investigate, but just as this thought crossed his mind, Andon's voice suddenly rang out.

Andon said with a serious expression, "Utopia is technically a newly emerging country. Although it has only existed for a short time, it is still older than the two of us combined."

"This country is a creation of everyone. It is impossible for just the two of us to see it all, just like a blind man feeling a camel or a beast; he can only ever grasp the general outline."

"Perhaps only that lord knows what true utopia is."

True Dragon nodded. "I've learned something. Everyone's concept of beauty is different. In the current Terra culture, the pursuit of beauty and happiness is eternal, from the fire of the primitive era to the television set of today."

Having reached this point, there was nothing more for the two to discuss.

The friendship between gentlemen is as pure as water.

Having spent some time here, Andon should return to Lateran.

Lateran calls itself Terra's paradise, but compared to Utopia, it is not only smaller in size, but also a significantly downgraded version.

There are also many people infected with Originium Infection within Utopia itself, because the places that Utopians who participate in adult trips visit are relatively dangerous, so it is normal for them to get infected.

However, they will all receive the treatment they deserve upon their return. Even if some people accidentally contract Originium Infection from using Originium products, no one will abandon them.

Even Sargon, a country that had just been incorporated into Utopia.

Universal health insurance was implemented on the very first day of enrollment.

In just one month, the number of Oripathy infected people in the entire Sargon region decreased by 70%, most of which was spent on headcount.

Although this is not a true cure, it turns the Originium into part of the body. After the treatment, there will be a small, safe, and harmless fragment of Originium inside the body, and the body will also gain a fairly high level of antibodies.

The Originium Arts no longer require a medium, as if they have evolved.
