Chapter 572 (1/2)
His internal force and spirit power penetrated Xingxing's mother's sea of consciousness, dispersing her dragon power and moistening her damaged internal organs. This was not a simple matter.
Liuli and others quietly stood behind Long Yi: they didn't even dare to breathe in fear that they would disturb Long Yi. They all knew that any disturbance could not be allowed when Long Yi treated someone.
Seeing Long Yi's complexion gradually paling and that he was sweating profusely, all of them were anxious and worried, but they could do nothing to help.
Xingxing tightly grabbed Liuli's hand. Their palms were moist, but it was unknown whether it was her sweat or Liuli's sweat.
Suddenly, Long Yi's pale handsome face twitched and he opened his tightly closed eyes. Then, the light spirit tablet shot out from his glabella and emitted a soft holy light, illuminating this huge dragon.
”Holy Spirit Radiance!” Long Yi shouted loudly, and his finger pressing against the glabella of this huge dragon trembled as tyrannical internal force gushed into her like the tide waters. Liuli and the others standing behind him were unable to stand stably. Sensing the ripple of energy in the air, they retreated a few steps back.
The over 100-meter-long huge dragon body convulsed in pain and vomited a mouthful of blood, but its life fluctuations suddenly strengthened.
Long Yi retrieved the light spirit tablet and sat on the ground, all his energy exhausted. In his heart, he cursed. He didn't know which abnormal ghost had suppressed her power, but if not for the help of light spirit tablet, the mother of Xingxing would certainly have died even with his help.
”Young Master, are you all right?” Liuli walked over and sat down, supporting Long Yi. Seeing his frail appearance, she almost shed tears in pain.
Long Yi shook his head and glanced at Xingxing who squatted in front of the huge dragon with tearful eyes. He smiled and said, ”Xingxing, don't worry; your mother is fine. She will wake up in a while.”
”Really, big brother Long?” Just a moment ago, upon seeing her mother vomiting blood, Xingxing had mistakenly believed that she would never see her mother again. So, hearing Long Yi's words, she was pleasantly surprised and a bit doubtful.
”Of course, when did this big brother Long deceive you?” Long Yi said with a smile. Circulating the internal force within his body, he recovered some energy.
Xingxing walked over to Long Yi and used her little hand to wipe the sweat off Long Yi's face and said gratefully, ”Thank you, big brother Long. Xingxing will repay you in the future.”
”Silly girl, you call me big brother. It is a matter of course for big brother to help younger sister. Where did the need to repay me come from?” Long Yi smiled and said. He truly liked this poor little girl.
”No, I have to repay you. My mother says that the favor of a drop of water should be repaid with the grat.i.tude of a fountain of water. Hereafter, big brother is Xingxing's family member. Xingxing will do whatever big brother wants Xingxing to do.” Little Xingxing looked serious like she was making a pledge.
Long Yi was startled. He pulled Xingxing into his bosom and said, nodding his head, ”Fine, hereafter, Xingxing will listen to this big brother, okay?” Honestly speaking, his heart was somewhat shaken. A little girl had actually said the favor of a drop of water should be repaid with the grat.i.tude of a fountain of water. Everybody knew the principle of this idiom, but there were many people devoid of grat.i.tude who destroyed the bridge after crossing the river in this world.
”Mmm. Xingxing will listen to big brother Long hereafter.” Xingxing happily smiled as if she had obtained an extremely big present.
At this moment, the huge dragon in front of them jerked and opened her eyes with great difficulty. She gaped upon seeing several pairs of eyes looking at her with concern.
”Mother, you woke up?” Xingxing smiled childishly.
The dragon blinked her eyes and looked at her daughter snuggling up to a handsome youth. Then she observed the other two men and one woman standing beside them. Although they had the aura of a member of the Divine Dragon Clan, they didn't resemble the clansmen of the Divine Dragon Clan.
A golden light flashed, and this huge dragon transformed into a beautiful woman wearing a long golden skirt. Her long golden hair hung loosely to her waist, and her facial features were very exquisite. As for her temperament, she looked gentle, but her beautiful face had a hint of abnormal paleness at this moment.
Xingxing quickly ran over and rushed into the bosom of her mother.
The beautiful woman gently caressed Xingxing's head while she examined the changes within her body. Suddenly, she was pleasantly surprised and wore a disbelieving look. Then, she gently separated from her daughter and walked over to Long Yi. She greeted him with proper human etiquette and said excitedly, ”My name is Teresa. Thank you all for saving my life.”
Long Yi smiled and said, ”Xingxing has already thanked us. Don't mention it.”
”Mother, this big brother Long saved you. He is very powerful.” Xingxing jumped into Long Yi's bosom and declared, rubbing the beard stubble of Long Yi. She didn't know why, but she especially liked his beard stubble.
Seeing her daughter so attached to Long Yi, Teresa felt a little sad in her heart. This child was too lonely and greatly lacked a father's love. So long as these people didn't have malicious intentions in coming to Dragon Island, she hoped that they would accompany Xingxing. Merely, Dragon Island was so far away due to the sea separating it from the mainland, and no human had ever arrived here for thousands of years, so she didn't know whether these people who had come were enemies or friends.
At this moment, the sky was already filled with stars and the sound of sea waves resounded throughout the island. It was a quiet and peaceful night.
Under the lead of Teresa, Long Yi and the others returned to the small log cabin in the middle of the flower garden. Xingxing had already fallen asleep in the bosom of Long Yi.
Long Yi gently placed Xingxing onto the bed, but just when he released his hand, she woke up and tightly hugged his neck. She refused to let go even after her mother told her to do so.
”Let me hold her. In any case, she is not heavy.” Long Yi spoke with a smile. In his heart, he felt an impulse to dote and protect this little girl.
Teresa helplessly nodded her head. How could a child lacking fatherly love easily let go after experiencing the long-awaited fatherly warmth? Nevertheless, these people would eventually leave. What would Xingxing do at that time?
Teresa made tea and poured it for the four people. Then, gracefully sitting on the main position, she said, ”I just wanted to know why you all came to Divine Dragon Archipelago. As I imagine it, you all have quietly snuck in.”
Long Yi nodded his head and after mumbling for a bit, he said, ”That's right. We did indeed sneak in, but we don't have any malicious intentions. I presume you should know about the matter of the prince of Demonic Dragon Clan and the princess of Divine Dragon Clan falling in love with each other.”
Teresa was startled, and she stared at Long Yi: ”Did you all come for that matter?”
