Chương 41: Dragon Marble
With the Dragon’s Sense, Leng San detected a stream of life within this hollow cavity. The boy waded through the soft vaginal mucosa until he met the baby dragon. The innocent baby dragon was a little bigger than Leng San. It was sleeping in a fetal position within a thin sac.
“Thank god, it wasn’t in an egg.”
Leng San slyly grinned, enveloped the tip of his finger with razor-sharp qi to slit the thin sac, and pulled out the baby dragon.
The boy then held up the baby dragon’s tail, made a small cut beneath, and took out a small vial to collect a small amount of the baby dragon’s blood.
‘Luckily, the dragon’s still a baby. Unlike its father and mother, its skin hasn’t fully developed yet.’
“What are you doing!? Why did you cut the baby dragon? Aren’t you afraid that its parents will shred you into pieces?” Freya was extremely agitated.
Leng San ignored Freya and slit his own palm. The boy then pressed his bleeding palm against the wound beneath the tiny dragon’s tail. After ten breaths, the baby dragon softly wiggled a few times before stopping. Leng San withdrew his hand and treated the wounds on his palm and the little dragon.
The boy made some sort of seal at the slit beneath the dragon’s tail. Everything that Leng San did happen inside the womb without the knowledge of its parents.
“Freya, how long would it take for the baby dragon to regain its consciousness?”
“Around ten days at least. What are you thinking? And what did you do just now?”
“You’ll understand eventually,” Leng San’s eyes gleamed suspiciously.
Leng San gently pulled the body of the baby dragon and made his way out of the dragon’s womb safely. He placed the baby dragon on a pile of leaves that he had prepared.
The male dragon’s eyes dilated. The proud father ran to its child.
“Both of you, do not touch the baby yet!!” Leng San scolded and used his body to protect the baby dragon.
“Why must you stop me!!” The male dragon was restless.
“My lord, as this was a premature birth, your child’s immune system is still weak, so there’s a high chance of infection if you were to interact with him now. Please wait until he wakes up on his own before touching him!!”
His stern facial expression and voice startled the parents. The safety of their offspring was of course their first priority, so they had no choice but to look at their child that was softly breathing, with endearment from afar.
“Why is the body of my child black, unlike ours that is scarlet?” The female dragon asked.
Leng San just noticed the color, as he could not see its color within the dark womb. Freya had to whisper the answer within his subconscious mind.
“My lord, as I’ve stated previously, your child has mutated, which is why the color of his skin is a bit different. But this also means that your child will be a lot stronger than both of you.”
The new parents slightly nodded with a gentle smile on their face.
“When will our child wake up?”
“I think it would take about ten days before your child wakes up. So, please do not have any physical contact with your child as a precaution. I have fulfilled my duties. Now it’s your turn to keep your promises.”
Leng San cupped his hands and bowed.
“Yes... well then, answer the question that I’ve been meaning to ask you earlier before you leave.”
The male dragon’s expression became stern. Whether Leng San would be able to leave or not, depending on his answer.
“Please go ahead,” Leng San had no clue what the question would be, but his face remained calm.
“Why... do you have the Azure Dragon Core within your body!?”
“!!!!” Leng San’s eyes grew wide. The boy was apparently confused.
“Di... did you ask me about the Azure Dragon Core?”
“Yes, I could sense the Azure Dragon Core and the power of the Azure Dragon within your body.”
Leng San grew silent. He did not know what to answer, as he knew nothing about the question that the Adamant Sol Dragon asked him!! Freya was speechless after hearing the dragon’s question as well. Suddenly, Leng San had somehow connected the dots. Or was it the Leng clan’s heirloom that had been sealed within his body, the Dragon Marble!!
“Freya!! What does this mean?”
“Yes...it’s talking about the Dragon Marble, your clan’s heirloom. Actually, it is the core of the Azure Dragon, a legendary magical beast with god-tier rainbow qi. As one of the four legendary beasts, it ruled the Azure Dragon continent tens of thousands of years ago.”
Leng San froze. He understood the origin of the Azure Dragon’s soul and its blessings now. This power came from the Azure Dragon Core that has been sealed within his body!!
“You didn’t answer my question yet.”
The dragon’s voice echoed once more. It could not hear the conversation between Leng San and Freya within the boy’s subconsciousness. Leng San took a shallow breath.
“My lord, what you said is correct. The power of the Azure Dragon that you’ve sensed really came from the core of the Azure Dragon. This Azure Dragon Core is my family’s heirloom. My grandpa sealed it within my body. I am the only survivor of my clan.”
“Impossible!!”
A wave of yellow qi poured out from the Adamant Sol Dragon. The formidable power that expanded continuously distorted the atmosphere. Leng San could not stand up against this immense pressure.
“It’s impossible to seal a core within a human’s body unless you’re not…”
The Adamant Sol Dragon had not completed its sentence. Suddenly, its irises dilated. It sensed an unlimited source of power that assaulted its spirit. The dragon retreated about four steps according to its instinct.
“If you continue to speak… even if it would destroy my own spirit, I will end your life immediately!!”
The voice resonated within the Adamant Sol Dragon’s mind. This particular power was imbued with red qi. The only person who could do that was Freya!! But Leng San and the female dragon could not sense what was happening as the power went straight to the male dragon.
‘Within this boy, there’s another powerful spirit.’
The male dragon nodded and stopped speaking. Obviously, the dragon’s suspicious gesture was picked up by Leng San.
“What do you mean? I am not what?” Leng San pressed for an answer.
“I am probably mistaken. Please forget about it. Now follow me. I have something to give you.”
The male dragon walked to the back of the cave after cutting the conversation short because Freya’s power had been suppressing it. However, in exchange for using her already low spiritual power, Freya had to rest for days. Leng San did not know about this. He only noticed that Freya just appeared silent…
