Chapter 457: Chapter 446, Not Bad

"Dragon Lord, I’m not refuting your philosophy, but just want to tell you that it suits those who are like you,"

"But it certainly doesn’t suit everyone. Every individual has their own thoughts."

After Xia Yue spoke, a flicker of fear took root in her heart, afraid he would lash out at her.

Having listened to her, Dragon Lord Ao Ye stared at her for a long time.

Since his hatching, nobody had ever spoken such words. Born into privilege, his parents and elders taught him skills and life lessons, telling him that as long as he was powerful, no one would dare disrespect him.

After becoming a father, his young ones were obedient enough, not daring to rebel. But as they grew older, developed abilities, they began to dispute him or even fight with each other, but none ever reasoned with him.

Now, a mixed-blood of the Dragon Clan of indeterminate generation, was attempting to reason with him.

It was really laughable. He could simply swat her away with a claw, even in his divided state, if he wanted to.

"You are quite eloquent, unlike your usual reticent self," Ao Ye said, looking at her. Having spent considerable time together, he had some understanding of Xia Yue’s quirks.

She was typically silent unless communication was necessary, preferring to spend her time engrossed in her mobile phone.

"Just because I don’t talk, it doesn’t mean I lack reasoning skills," Xia Yue replied.

"Hmm hmm," Dragon Lord Ao Ye scoffed coldly before settling into a posture of seeming sleep.

Xia Yue didn’t dare speak any further

She picked up her phone and messaged Ao Mi.

Yuexia Touxian: Ao Mi, Ao Mi, I just had a conversation with your father. He stopped talking after scoffing at me twice. What do I do now?

Gluttonous King of Stomachs: What did you say to him?

Xia Yue briefly explained the situation.

Gluttonous King of Stomachs: [Thumbs Up]That’s brave! You dared to speak honestly with him and merely received a scoff in return. Seems he treats you quite well. If it was any of us, we would have been sent to the Dragon Abyss long ago.

Yuexia Touxian: Forget about that - should I say something pleasant to him now?

Gluttonous King of Stomachs: No, just let him be and let him think things through. He will be alright soon.

Yuexia Touxian: You’re his son, so I’ll listen to you. I’ll avoid him for now in case he finds me annoying.

Gluttonous King of Stomachs: That works too.

With her phone in hand, Xia Yue silently retreated to the inner room, exhaling heavily and collapsing onto her bed, burying herself under the covers.

[Saying such things even when you’re terrified. You are really courageous indeed.]The system’s voice sounded in her mind.

"I just want him to understand that everyone has their little hobbies and own thoughts, not just going by his wishes," Xia Yue said weakly.

[Ignorance can indeed make one fearless. Rejoice that Dragon Lord Ao Ye tolerates you. Otherwise, he would have swiped at you long ago. Don’t act on impulse next time. Listen to what he says, whether you do it or not, isn’t that your own decision?]The system advised her.

"Understood, there will be no next time." One scare was more than enough for her, she didn’t need more trouble.

[Alright, play with your phone for another half hour, then go to sleep.]The system urged her.

"Understood."

"This system is actually pretty good," Xia Yue muttered to herself.
