Chapter 237 Leaving the Cave
In this dark and silent space, time passes by little by was no movement here, only the aura of Zi Yan and Xiao Yun was slowly getting stronger.
The space pool that was originally filled with purple air has long revealed its true appearance. The person sitting inside is no longer a little kid, but a girl in purple.
The girl has an angelic face and a tall figure.
The only flaw is that the clothes on her body don't fit well, making the originally beautiful scene look a little funny.
The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and then the eyes that had been closed for a long time slowly opened.
Purple-gold light flickered in it, and a powerful and mysterious aura slowly revived from the body.
Zi Yan stood up from the pool. As she had just woken up, her mind was still a little fuzzy and she did not notice the changes in herself at the first sight.
His eyes swept across the room, finally stopping on a young man not far away. His originally confused look gradually disappeared, replaced by a bright smile.
"Xiaoyun, I..."
Zi Yan shouted and took a step to walk out of the pool. It was this movement that made her realize something was wrong with her body.
She lowered her head slightly, and what she saw was no longer the familiar toes, but a snow-white ravine that looked extremely tempting.
"This, this is..." Zi Yan couldn't believe it, her dream was very simple, just to grow up.
But when she really found herself grown up, she was caught off guard.
"Child, you're awake..."
Just when Zi Yan was still immersed in the surprise of having grown up, a comforting voice suddenly rang in her ears.
Looking up, he spotted Zhu Kun sitting by the stone gate with a flattering smile on his face.
"You... turn your head away! Don't look at me!" Zi Yan said in a hurried voice.
Hearing this, Zhu Kun, the continent's number one daughter slave, naturally didn't dare to say anything more. He turned around quickly and faced the wall to reflect on his mistakes.
"Huh!" Seeing Zhu Kun's back, Zi Yan took a deep breath and digested the fact that she had grown up.
In the past, she always said that she wanted to grow up, and she envied Xiao Yun's rising height. Now that she has really grown up, she wants to go back to being a child again...
After trying and finding that she couldn't shrink, Zi Yan sighed lightly and flipped her hand, and a purple dress appeared in her palm.
This was the dress that Medusa had sewn for her when she said she wanted to grow up.
She originally thought that it would take a long time before she could wear it...
"Buzz!" The next moment, a dazzling light shot out, and then quickly dissipated, revealing a stunning girl.
"I didn't expect that Sister Medusa could sew so well..."
After turning around a few times and being a little boastful, Zi Yan murmured something in a low voice, and then said loudly to Zhu Kun:
"Okay, you can turn around now!"
Zhu Kun quickly turned around and saw Zi Yan wearing a suitable dress, and a look of relief appeared on his face.
My daughter has grown up!
"Child, you really look like your mother..."
Seeing Zi Yan now, Zhu Kun's eyes showed a look of reminiscence, as if he saw his deceased wife smiling at him.
"Can you...can you tell me what your mother is like?"
Hearing this, Zi Yan lowered her head, her voice trembling. Unlike her father's disappearance, her mother had already entered the Dragon Tomb...
"Oh..." With a sigh, the next moment, Zhu Kun appeared in front of Zi Yan.
He subconsciously wanted to reach out his hand to comfort her, but he remembered what he had done in the past, and his hand stayed in mid-air.
"Kid, let's sit down and talk." With a flip of his hand, the space changed, and a set of tables and chairs appeared in the square.
Zi Yan did not object, but nodded slightly and sat on the chair with Zhu Kun.
"You look a lot like your mother. She is a very kind and loving person, just like you..."
Zhu Kun had a look of reminiscence on his face as he told Zi Yan the whole story of how he met Zi Yan's mother and how they got married.
……
Time passed slowly. Zhu Kun and Zi Yan, father and daughter, were talking and listening, both lost in memories. They did not even notice that Xiao Yun had awakened.
“That day, when your mother was traveling outside, she was chased by a group of people and was severely injured.
When I found out about it afterwards, even though I wiped out all the people from that force, it was of no avail.
Your mother was beyond help, and at the end of her life, she told me that she didn't want to die with any regrets.
So, join me and gather all her blood power into your body, and then you will appear..."
At this point, Zhu Kun's face showed grief, and Zi Yan also burst into tears without knowing when.
“After that, your mother’s death made me lose interest in staying on Dragon Island. At that time, everyone in the world said that above the Dou Sheng, the Dou Emperor was omnipotent.
That’s why I took you to find the Ancient Emperor’s Cave Mansion and pursue the opportunity to break through to the Dou Emperor, and later, it turned out like this…”
After telling his daughter what he had been through for thousands of years, Zhu Kun looked at Zi Yan who had grown up and let out a sigh of relief as if a mountain had been lifted from his shoulders.
Zi Yan lay on the table, crying quietly.
It turned out that this was how I was born and my mother died here.
"Ah..." Under Zhu Kun's surprised gaze, Xiao Yun walked behind Zi Yan at some point and gently patted the girl's back.
"Zi Yan, don't be sad, your mother's blood is flowing in your body!
You must live a good life in the future and take a good look at the world for your mother."
The young man's voice startled the girl, and she quickly stood up and wiped her tears in a hurry, trying to hide her fragile side. But Xiao Yun didn't care, he pulled Zi Yan up and held her in his arms.
Zi Yan continued to struggle at first, but in the end, she hugged him tightly, crying loudly, and venting her inner emotions.
"This kid! He has so many tricks up his sleeve! What he says is more effective than what I say!"
At the beginning, Zhu Kun was very satisfied, but this satisfied look only lasted until Xiao Yun hugged Zi Yan, and then it came to an abrupt end.
……
After a moment, facing Zhu Kun's angry gaze, Xiao Yun shrugged helplessly, his expression a little unnatural.
Beside him, Zi Yan pressed herself tightly against Xiao Yun, her delicate body pressed against him.
"uncle……"
"Shut up! You can't call me uncle! Just call me Long Huangbi...Uncle."
As soon as Xiao Yun opened his mouth, Zhu Kun's anger that had been brewing for a long time burst out and he spoke angrily.
However, the next moment, under Zi Yan's gaze, the voice became strangely soft again.
In this regard, Xiao Yun said that there really is always someone who can defeat someone else!
If it weren’t for Zi Yan, with Zhu Kun’s hot temper, he would have turned into skin fragments long ago.
"Ahem, uncle, thank you very much."
With Zi Yan hugging one of his arms, Xiao Yun was unable to salute and could only express his gratitude verbally.
"Hehe! No need to thank me! Just be nicer to my daughter in the future!" Zhu Kun snorted a few times through his nose.
"I will! Zi Yan treats me as her own family! I do the same!" Xiao Yun said solemnly.
He didn't have any idea about Zi Yan. After all, what kind of good person would have any idea about a little kid who was only eleven or twelve years old and was noisy all day long?
Perhaps at first he wanted to take advantage of Zi Yan's strength and background. After years of getting along with her, Xiao Yun had already regarded her as a younger sister.
"That's good. Since my daughter's bloodline has been cleansed, Xiaoyun, you can take her away."
Zhu Kun waved his hand and said rather dejectedly.
Although he really wanted it to stay and accompany him, the current situation of the Ancient Dragon Clan was not optimistic.
Moreover, he didn't want his precious daughter to stay in this dark and silent space all day.
Hearing this, Zi Yan's eyes dimmed slightly. After spending these days together, and knowing that Zhu Kun did not intend to abandon him, he had no choice.
Her perception of this so-called father has changed a lot.
Zi Yan, who originally loved to explore various places and couldn't stay away from others, couldn't be happy at all when she heard that she was about to leave this place.
"My child, as long as you can live a good life outside, your father will be very happy."
Zhu Kun, who was a daughter slave, noticed Zi Yan's mood change at the first moment and immediately spoke out to comfort her.
Then, he took out three purple-gold scales from his arms, two large and one small, and handed them to Xiao Yun and the other one respectively.
After taking the scale, Zi Yan showed a puzzled look on her face and looked at the little thing curiously.
“Xiao Yun, kid, I’ve infused this large scale with my entire body’s Dou Qi, and its power is comparable to a blow from a nine-star Dou Sheng.
If we encounter a strong enemy in the future, it will be able to play a certain role in deterring or killing the enemy."
After Zhu Kun introduced the large scale, he pointed to the small scale in Xiao Yun's hand and said, "As for this one, it also has my aura in it.
When you return to the Ancient Dragon Clan, ask the elders of the clan to place it on the Dragon Emperor altar, and all the Ancient Dragon Clan members will be able to sense it!
By then, Zhu Guang and the other three beasts will know that I am not dead as they thought, but still alive in this world!"
Xiao Yun nodded happily and thanked him again.
The two scales that Zhu Kun gave him were very good! They made his trip to the Northwest Continent perfect.
The former can guarantee a certain degree of personal safety, while the latter can resolve the current fragmented situation of the ancient dragon clan.
On the contrary, Zi Yan was still a little absent-minded, as she had received the so-called benefits given by her father.
This scale is not something that Zhu Kun just ripped off! After all, it can carry the fighting spirit of a nine-star Dou Sheng, so how can it be an ordinary thing...
"Okay, little guy, leave now. If you run into any trouble in the future, you can come back to me.
Although Tushegudi restricted my freedom, but in this underground magma world!
Even if you are a Nine-Star Peak Fighting Saint, I can protect you!"
Xiao Yun nodded, pulled Zi Yan up from the chair, bowed, and said, "Then senior, let's go!"
As soon as the words fell, the two of them slowly floated up and headed towards the periphery of the dark space.
Zhu Kun was standing in the square, waving his hands like an ordinary old father, watching the two leave with satisfaction.
"Later! I'll come again!"
Just when Xiao Yun and the other were about to escape from the dark world, Zi Yan suddenly turned around and spoke loudly to the bottom.
"Okay! Okay! Then I, your father, will wait for you here!"
Hearing this, Zhu Kun could no longer pretend to be relaxed, and a silver light swirled in his eyes.
"Xiao Yun, do you think we will come back here in the future?"
"Of course, not only will I come back, but I will also help you rescue Uncle Zhu Kun!"
I'll post it first. I should be able to write another chapter.
