Chapter 146: Chapter 144 He Wants to Mate with Me (Second Update, Please Vote)

"Master, if the Peacock God has left, does it mean he won’t come back? What should I do in the future?"

Yun Qi blinked her phoenix eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Ask your guards to leave first, I have something to ask the Jiaolong."

The Lord quickly had the guards leave and closed the restaurant door.

Yun Qi summoned the Jiaolong, which spiraled down from above, hovering around a pillar, and nodded slightly towards Yun Qi, "You called me."

Yun Kuang and Yun Qiucheng were dumbfounded. No wonder Yun Qiuce said he gained knowledge by following Yun Qi, this was indeed eye-opening. What was this they were seeing?

A Jiaolong!

Yun Qi asked, "Did you know the Peacock and is it because of him that you left Langqi Island?"

"Yes, nine hundred years ago I escaped from the Dragon-locking Well, dived deep into the sea, and came to Langqi Island. At that time, the Peacock had already taken over the island, and it was filled with his followers. However, because his primordial spirit was damaged, only a small amount of his consciousness was preserved in the totem, so we have coexisted peacefully for nine hundred years without any conflict, until one day, he suddenly awoke and came to me..."

The Jiaolong paused, frowned, as if pondering how to continue.

Yun Kuang asked, "I see. He couldn’t fight you when he was injured, so the first thing he did when he woke up was to challenge you."

When great demons meet, they surely fight. This is a territorial instinct of living creatures, just like two dogs in the village barking at each other or trying to cover each other’s scent while marking territory.

"...Um, no." The Jiaolong glanced at Yun Kuang, hesitated, and after a moment of embarrassment, finally said shamefully, "He didn’t come to fight me, he had other intentions..."

Realizing the importance of the Jiaolong’s words, the four people below all looked up at him, their eyes burning with curiosity.

"What exactly was it?" Yun Qi asked impatiently, tilting her little head seriously.

"Come on, we’re all on the same side here, there’s nothing you can’t say!" Yun Kuang was also a bit impatient.

"He wanted to mate with me!" The Jiaolong mumbled, turning his head slightly away, feeling a bit embarrassed under their intense gazes.

"Huh?" Yun Qi blinked her big eyes, thinking she had heard wrong.

Yun Kuang, confused, scratched his head, "Why didn’t you agree? Isn’t he quite good-looking?"

The Jiaolong looked at him as if he was an idiot, "He is good-looking, but didn’t you notice he’s a male, and I’m also a male."

How could he mate at all! The Jiaolong wanted to curse.

"Uh..." Yun Kuang rubbed his head awkwardly, "Actually, in the human world, this kind of orientation is innate, you don’t need to react so strongly."

"No, I don’t understand you humans, but for him, it’s not about orientation, it’s his head..." The Jiaolong raised his claw and pointed to his head, "There’s something wrong. At the moment he awoke, he forgot who he was, and all his understanding of the world was muddled. He didn’t even have the concept of male and female..."

"But he still wanted to mate with you?" the Lord asked, puzzled.

"Because in his confusion, he acted purely on instinct, one was to eat, the other to reproduce. To him, wanting to eat you or wanting to mate with me is the same logic. You were too weak and thus food, while I was strong and could continue his lineage. His actions were driven purely by instinct."

"Wow, I can’t believe it," Yun Kuang marveled.

"At first, when he said he wanted to mate with me, I thought he was trying to insult me on purpose, so I fought with him, but soon I realized his mind was not clear, as if controlled by something, but not completely. As the local Guardian God, this sort of thing shouldn’t happen to him, so I deduced something major must have happened on Langqi Island, and that’s when I discovered two Hai City people appeared on the island," the Jiaolong looked at Yun Qiucheng, "Their appearance ignited my hatred, so I took the opportunity to possess the woman when she left the island, hoping to take revenge."

Yun Qiucheng was stunned, "You mean you possessed my wife?"

Yun Kuang quickly said, "Yes, Dad, this is the true story. Little Qi tamed the Jiaolong and saved Mom’s life. Didn’t Mom tell you?"

Yun Qiucheng was shocked, looking at Yun Qi, his expression complicated.

The Jiaolong’s words completely overturned his understanding. It was Little Qi who saved his wife.

So, the rumors about Little Qi charming people with coquettishness to drive away his wife and daughter were false!!!

"I’m sorry, Little Qi."

Yun Qi waved her hand, "Uncle, it’s enough for you to know who’s telling the truth and who’s lying. Little Qi doesn’t mind."

"Little Qi, aren’t you angry?" Yun Kuang asked.

"My master said, capable people don’t bother with those without capabilities because capable people get attention anywhere, while those without capabilities only get attention by picking fights with those who have capabilities."

Yun Kuang and Yun Qiucheng turned the sentence over in their minds several times, and finally understood the gist.

The Jiaolong said in a deep voice, "I’ve nothing more to do here, I’ll take my leave now."

Just as he was about to leave, a furious voice resounded from outside:

"Why aren’t you standing guard inside? Who told you to stand outside? Can you afford the responsibility if something happens to the Lord?"

"Captain, it was the Lord who told us to come out."

"Nonsense!"

Then, the restaurant door was forcibly pushed open.

The Royal Guard Captain saw the Lord. His expression slightly softened, but he glanced warily at Yun Qi and the others out of the corner of his eye, and quickly walked over:

"My Lord, it was too risky for you to dismiss the guards and stay with these outsiders."

The Lord said, "It’s alright, Master Yun is my honored guest, I trust them."

The Captain stubbornly said, "Apologies for my offense, but Langqi Island has its own Pope, and the High Priest can help you if there’s any trouble, instead of trusting the so-called mystic masters from the mainland."

After speaking, he once again glared at Yun Qi.

Suddenly noticing Little Dumpling was gone, he was startled, then a small hand tugged at his uniform, a sweet childish voice spoke, "Uncle, let me read your face."

"There’s no need," the Guard Captain irritably pulled his uniform away from Little Dumpling’s hand, "If I have any problems, I’ll naturally consult the High Priest. The mysticism from the mainland is like hawking wares to me."

Yun Qi, not angry at all, smiled and said, "Uncle, your forehead is broad, and your temples are full, which shows you come from a well-off background, your family has a certain social status, suggesting you are from a noble family. But your property palace is narrow, nostrils flaring, indicating an arrogant temperament and superiority complex. Thus, you harbor disdain for those from poor backgrounds who change their fate through hard work to advance their social status, am I right?"

The Guard Captain paused, finally looking down at Yun Qi, layers of doubt flickered in his eyes.

"You believe that such an important position as an Imperial Palace Guard should only be held by the children of nobles, so you despise your colleagues who come from slums, wanting to get rid of them, isn’t that so!"

Yun Qi’s eyes changed from pure and sweet to serious and sharp in an instant, her small form showing a formidable edge.
