Dragon Prince Yuan

Zhou Yuan dazedly stared at Yaoyao's left eye, which seemed to be full of ancient mysteries, like the eye of a divine being. However, that cold and indifferent gaze resembled a god looking down on mortal beings, and the pressure it faintly released made Zhou Yuan feel extremely uncomfortable.

Hu.

But he drew a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his emotions. Then he reached for Yaoyao's hand. "What's the matter?"

Yaoyao said softly, "I think it's because I overexerted myself and accelerated the divinity's recovery."

Zhou Yuan was silent. The awakening of Yaoyao's divinity represented supreme power, but no one was certain what would happen after the divinity was truly restored. Would Yaoyao still retain her consciousness then?

"I'm sorry…it's because I'm not strong enough." Zhou Yuan's voice sounded pained. If he was strong enough, Yaoyao wouldn't need to do anything.

A strand of hair drooped down to cover Yaoyao's left eye as she stretched out her icy little hands, and placed them on Zhou Yuan's cheeks. She said sincerely, "Zhou Yuan, don't say that. I know, I know you have worked harder than anyone else to make yourself stronger. I know what you want to change when you become stronger. Your accomplishments aren't inferior to anyone's. Also, I believe you will reach that step one day."

Yaoyao had witnessed with her own eyes how the youngster, whose eight meridians were blocked at the beginning, overcame one obstacle after another over the years. Outsiders would only know about the miracles he had created, but they didn't know how much effort he had put in to achieve them.

It was brought about by wandering between life and death.

Although Zhou Yuan always claimed that he was the king of living off women, Yaoyao understood that he only did that to spur himself on. Even if the gap between them in terms of strength and status was as great as a chasm, Zhou Yuan had never given up.

He constantly sped along the thorny road. Even if he was covered with cuts and bruises and even if there were many obstacles, he still unwaveringly moved forward.

This was what Yaoyao liked most about him.

Yaoyao had become more and more cold and detached over the years because of the divinity, but she still retained her human nature because of Zhou Yuan. In Yaoyao's heart, Zhou Yuan was the light that guided her and made her able to resist the divinity's corrosion. Feeling the soft and icy touch from Yaoyao's little hands, Zhou Yuan smiled at Yaoyao. He knew he wasn't strong enough. It was just that his heart ached too much when he saw the changes in Yaoyao.

He quickly composed his emotions and said in a serious voice, "In the future, don't use that power unless you really need to. Yaoyao, you have to remember that although all-heavens regard you as the last hope, no one can force you to do what you don't want. Someone will eventually come forward from all-heavens. If all-heavens don't have such a potential, then…"

Zhou Yuan's expression was grave but resolute. "Perhaps destruction is better than dragging out its existence."

Yaoyao stared dazedly at Zhou Yuan. It was only after a good while that the corners of her lips curled slightly upwards and a light gently flashed in her eyes. How wouldn't she know what all-heavens expected of her? She of course didn't like that expectation, but that perhaps was her responsibility and she couldn't escape from it.

But Zhou Yuan told her that he would support her no matter what choice she made and that she shouldn't be bound by the so-called responsibility forced onto her.

This showed that Yaoyao's position in Zhou Yuan's heart was even higher than all-heavens. Yaoyao also knew that the 'someone' that Zhou Yuan mentioned would likely come forward was himself.

She stretched out her slender arms and wrapped them around Zhou Yuan's neck, and then pressed her red lips on it, giving him a soft but cold feeling. Even his Spirit seemed to be trembling after that.

Zhou Yuan looked stunned. He didn't think Yaoyao, who was like a goddess that no one dared to touch, would take such an initiative. But it was stupid to think about that now, and so, Zhou Yuan unhesitatingly held her little waist tight and responded passionately, rapaciously savoring the sweetness.

But such benefits didn't last long. Yaoyao looked up, blushed even deeper and moved away from Zhou Yuan.

"Is that it?" Zhou Yuan's eyes widened as though wishing to continue.

A blush came to Yaoyao's beautiful porcelain cheeks as she said with a faint smile, "Do you miss it?"

Zhou Yuan nodded repeatedly, staring at the beauty's little red lips with blazing eyes.

"What do you miss more - that or when you were integrating with Wu Yao's Sacred Dragon Blessing?" Yaoyao threw out the ultimate question with a smile on her face.

Zhou Yuan felt a bucket of ice water poured onto his head from above when he heard that question. His entire body shuddered and his brain went stiff for a moment when he saw Yaoyao's faint smile. He shook his head frantically. "I don't know what you're talking about."

Zhou Yuan explained sincerely, "I was seriously wounded and fell unconscious. How would I know what she did to me?"

Immediately he furrowed his brows. "Did she do something inappropriate to me? How could she? I trusted her so much! It seems that I can't have any contact with her in the future!"

Yaoyao was both amused and annoyed by Zhou Yuan's show. She shook her head, saying, "She saved you no matter what."

Zhou Yuan could tell from her tone that her words had no other meaning. He pondered for a moment and said reluctantly, "Then let's watch what happens for now. I hope she will reflect on her mistake."

Yaoyao rolled her eyes and didn't want to continue on that topic. She changed the topic. "Did old man Jin Luo take all your reward?"

When Zhou Yuan heard this, he thought Yaoyao was going to give prime sovereign Jin Luo trouble and hurriedly explained, "The biggest gain this time is that I broke through to the Law Domain stage. Any other rewards are insignificant."

It wasn't completely insignificant. Ancestral Dragon Spirit Essence was still an extremely rare and precious cultivation resource to him. After all, he had only reached the Law Domain stage and was not a true Saint, so he still needed to improve. But he knew that prime sovereign Jin Luo had his own difficulties. After all, Zhou Yuan killed Xu Beiyan in front of so many people and as the head of all-heavens saints and one of the three leaders of the Omega Shrine, prime sovereign Jin Luo had to handle the situation well.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in making things difficult for him." Yaoyao stood up and tied her fine black hair in a high ponytail. At the same time, a strand of hair covered her left eye and her purple dress draped down, making her look very domineering.

"However, he will return everything."

Yaoyao blinked at Zhou Yuan with a faint smile, "We don't need the benefits from the Stone Dragon Secret Domain battle, but they have taken so many Ancestral Dragon Remnant Spirits there and I bet they want to ask us to refine Ancestral Dragon Pills. It's going to be a big project, but the Omega Shrine should be able to pay the price, right? I'm not interested in helping people for nothing."

Zhou Yuan was taken aback. Then, he immediately shed a tear for prime sovereign Jin Luo. It was clear that although Yaoyao said she didn't care, she still kept it in her mind. It seemed that prime sovereign Jin Luo couldn't escape.
