Chapter 207 (1/2)

Qi Aoshuang stared back as Jean approached her slowly. A strange feeling that she did not understand arose in her heart as she stared at him blankly.

Leng Lingyun narrowed his eyes, not saying anything.

Jean stood before them.

Qi Aoshuang lowered her head, silent.

“Miss, I’ve returned…” His voice was drawn out, as if filled with too many emotions. Jean knelt down on one knee, his right fist clenched before his left chest. It was the most formal knight bow.

A thousand words could not contain the meaning of these words.

Miss, I’ve returned…

While Ben was spewing angry fire, they were silent.

With her head lowered, Qi Aoshuang watched as he kneeled. Jean gave Qi Aoshuang a deep, long look.

The two peered into each other’s eyes silently. Neither moved nor spoke.

Finally, Qi Aoshuang lowered her gaze.

Jean silently watched her, still kneeling.

“You’ve returned…” Qi Aoshuang broke into a bright smile, her voice quiet and gentle.

Jean slowly stood up. He stared profoundly at the person he had been chasing after all this time. Gradually, his handsome face also revealed a smile. He nodded. “Yes. Miss, I’ve returned.”

“Chirp chirp!”

“Peep peep!”

White Emperor and Black Feather called out intimately, shooting out of Qi Aoshuang’s cloak like little cannonballs into Jean’s embrace. Of the people Qi Aoshuang was friends with, White Emperor and Black Feather like Jean the most. Now that they saw Jean, they were naturally excited.

Before they finished their reunion, Ben was finished with his fight. They had all died a dog’s death unjustly. They originally came after her, but before they could even get a glimpse of her, not to mention attack her, they were wiped out.

“Oh? Jean, how did you find us?” Ben smiled contently, rotating his shoulder relaxedly.

“I heard what happened to Miss and had been searching for her ever since. Later, I heard that the Temple had stationed many people here, so I came. Because you were there, I predicted Miss would come to find you,” Jean explained.

“Haha… not bad! You’re pretty smart. I remember you were one of the Hill clan’s people. Have you not thought of returning with her head?” Ben narrowed his eyes, his eyes glinting with an imperceivable cold light. If Jean’s response was unsatisfactory in anyway, he would strike.

“I said long ago that the Miss is my religion. No matter what she has down, I will stand at her side. Even if everything the Temple of Light claims is true.” Jean spoke faintly.

“Oh?” Ben raised a brow, his eyes narrowed. “You really believe in your Miss? Although, right now, she is not a Miss any more. Her name is now Qi Aoshuang.”

“Qi Aoshuang?” Jean paused slightly, murmuring the complex characters to himself, then looked at Qi Aoshuang resolutely. “I believe in Miss, I always have. I don’t need an explanation.”

Seeing Jean’s staunch gaze, Qi Aoshuang’s heart warmed. Originally, Jean was one of Duke Gordon’s people, but now, he chose to stand at her side unwaveringly….

“Thank you…” Qi Aoshuang said softly. It was all she could say.

“Is that you mount?” Suddenly, Ben shot a vicious glare at Vermillion, who was trembling slightly.

“Yes.” Jean nodded.

“Alright, don’t be such a bully.” Qi Aoshuang knew that Ben hated dragons who accepted humans as masters. Although he could allow Qi Aoshuang to ride him, they were two different matters.

“Come over here!” Ben coldly ordered. Vermillion was still sprawled on the ground.

She shuddered, her eyes flashing. Then, she transformed into a girl in red clothes and walked over shyly.

“You just became an adult?” Ben watched Vermillion with narrowed eyes. She watched his frightfully.

Vermillion nodded, not daring to speak.

“Do you know what I am?” Ben said coldly.

Vermillion shook her head hesitantly. She knew that the young man with black hair before her was a dragon, a dragon many times more powerful than her, but she did not know who he was.

“Alright, Ben, stop being so mean..” Qi Aoshuang tried to stop him.

“I am the Dragon King. In the future, you will be our mount.” Because Ben heard Qi Aoshuang speak, his tone softened a bit.

“Ah!” Vermillion froze, staring at Ben, both terrified and amazed. Dragon King! The Dragon King was with that woman! Vermillion glanced at Jean, but saw that Jean’s gaze had never left Qi Aoshuang. Her heart started to dim. Master forever only had that woman in his heart. Vermillion pouted, lowering her head. She said to Ben deferentially, “Yes, your highness.”
