“Why are you acting so excited? It’s not even your dragon! Stop acting so flustered and go inform Duan Lan’s family!” the old mister said.

“Informing family again? Master, please think of something. This disciple doesn’t want to see Sister Duan Lan die,” Xiaoli pleaded, nearly crying out loud.

“What do you mean, die… Her soul is severely damaged. If her family doesn’t find spirit medicine for her, she won’t wake up again!” the old mister said, irritated.

“Oh, she’s not dead. Then what if they found spirit medicine for healing the soul?” Xiaoli asked, calming down quickly.

“It’ll still take about half a year. Her injury is too severe. Fortunately her dragon survived. If it died and her soul was further damaged, not even the deities could save her then!”

Xiaoli left in a hurry. Spirit medicines weren’t easy to find. It was best to have Duan Lan’s family look for some as soon as possible. Otherwise, who knew when she’d wake up from her coma?

The old mister went to wash his hands. Afterwards, he couldn’t help but be drawn to the black crocodile spirit who was in the midst of dragonizing in the healing pool.

“You’re that little black crocodile that liked eating silkworms, aren’t you?” the old mister said, narrowing his eyes.

When he had nothing to do in the Infirmary Hall, the old mister liked going to the Dragon Storage Hall. Spending time with the lively little creatures was very enjoyable for him. He’d feed them from time to time, and also help with distributing young spiritlings to the poor students.

The old mister recognized every spiritling in the Dragon Storage Hall, including those he had released back into the wild.

They were like a bunch of little pets with nowhere to return to. The old mister hoped every single of them would find a good home, no matter if they were dragonlings or ordinary spirits.

“You’ve dragonized so soon. Looks like you found a pretty decent master. It’s been a very long time since a spiritling from the Dragon Storage Hall truly dragonized. If I record your feat, the Institution Head will probably not order my Dragon Storage Hall to be shut down.”

The palace was surrounded by pine trees, and tightly guarded.

Li Ying sat in the main hall starting early in the morning, facing a stack of documents related to Ancestral Dragon City State. For a moment, he didn’t know where to begin handling all this work. Every one of them seemed to concern the fate of the Ancestral Dragon City State!

“Take a break,” Kong Tong said gently as she came walking, holding a cup of hot tea.

“The east is very concerning,” Li Ying sighed.

Kong Tong walked behind Li Ying and massaged his shoulders, saying, “Lingxiao City’s envoy will be arriving soon. After our truce is confirmed, we can focus all our attention to dealing with the rebels from Wutu. They can forget about raising any waves from then on.”

At this moment, a guard walked quickly across the main hall. Kong Tong glared fiercely at this guard who didn’t know to act any better.

However, the guard looked flustered. Without greeting the lady, he walked towards Li Ying and quickly whispered something in his ear.

Li Ying’s expression immediately changed, nearly shooting up from his seat and slamming his palm on the table.

Concubine Kong Tong jumped in shock, immediately wanting to console him.

“Quickly summon the general of the Flying Birds Battalion here!” Li Ying ordered angrily.
