Under my careful nurturing, the Azure Serpent Lord had grown increasingly magnificent. He weaved through the clouds like a blue satin ribbon, shimmering with an enchanting glow, his golden eyes radiating an imperial aura.
As I rode on the Azure Serpent Lord, I couldn't help but think of how many young hearts must have shattered at the sight, leading to a recent surge of activity at the Immortal Elder's Mansion. There were countless requests for photos, offers of sponsorship, and even proposals for breeding; the threshold of the old immortal's home had been trampled by fervent fans.
To escape the infatuated admirers, the Azure Serpent Lord decided to take me on a journey, such as going to Pengcai to eat Azure Fruit, or causing some mischief at the Moon Elder Palace… including trespassing into certain forbidden areas of the heavenly realm.
Like today.
"It smells so good, so good!" I exclaimed, leaning against the Azure Serpent Lord, drooling at the corners of my mouth.
Recently, my spirits had been high, which only increased my appetite. Even in my dreams, I found myself recalling scenes of dragon-slaying from the past—those dragon brains were as white as tofu pudding, tender and soft.
The Azure Serpent Lord pulled me off his back with an expressionless face and said, "We're here!"
I opened my eyes to see a palace standing majestically above the clouds, surrounded by fluffy white clouds that made it appear even more ethereal. Wasn't this the legendary Cloud Palace?
I waved at the Azure Serpent Lord and said, "Take your time; I'll go ahead."
He had no idea how terrifying this Cloud Palace could be. It was said that a highly malevolent Cloud Dragon had once been imprisoned here. The Heavenly Emperor had locked it away in the clouds for five hundred years until Yin Li, the Sin God, led a rebellion of earthly beasts against the heavenly realm. Only then did the Heavenly Emperor reluctantly release the Cloud Dragon.
In an instant, raging floods surrounded Yin Li's forces, turning the entire Ji Province Plain into a marshland. Even such a powerful figure as Yin Li was rendered helpless before it; what chance did we small fry have? Entering would be like offering ourselves as mere snacks.
"He has long since left this place."
The Azure Serpent Lord walked over and picked up a mottled iron chain, a look of inexplicable sorrow on his face. "After that battle that shook the Three Realms, he was sealed by the Heavenly Emperor as Immortal lord Xuan Ye, stationed in the Nine Heavens."
"The Immortal lord Xuan Ye of Purple Cloud Palace?!" I suddenly realized.
No wonder that Fire Phoenix was so arrogant; she indeed had the backing to be so.
The Azure Serpent Lord snorted coldly, his fingers suddenly crushing the Binding of Immortals with force.
"Hey, hey, hey! We are already violating heavenly rules by being here. Are you trying to destroy public property too? Do you want to get yourself killed?!" I rushed forward and yanked the Binding of Immortals from his grasp.
The moment my fingers touched him, a flurry of familiar scenes flashed before my eyes: me walking down the street surrounded by children throwing small stones, lying by the Weak Water River with tears streaming down my face and blood soaking my chest, and more prominently, a lonely figure of a man beneath Cloud Palace...
"This is bad!" I let out a sound and involuntarily collapsed.
"Nan Ci!" The Azure Serpent Lord caught me just before I fainted, shouting hoarsely.
From his golden pupils, I saw my own body turning a deep shade of purple, like an overripe shrimp.
Scorching heat radiated from every pore of my body, and the Azure Serpent Lord's arms around me were scorched, emitting wisps of smoke.
The entire Cloud Palace was suddenly enveloped in a thick mist that felt both real and illusory.
" A Qing, I'm so hot..."
I clung tightly to the Azure Serpent Lord's waist, feeling that the closer I got to him, the cooler his skin felt against mine. My heated lips instinctively climbed up his neck, planting a trail of kisses on his Adam's apple, his cheek, and his rosy lips.
The Azure Serpent Lord frowned, yet a deep groan escaped his lips.
"A Yan."
That low whisper was enough to drive me into a frenzy, and I bit down hard.
Yes, I sank my sharp teeth into his neck, piercing through his pale skin as the Azure Serpent Lord's blood flowed out in warm streams.
"Ahh..."
He cried out in pain, and that sound was like music to my ears, startling the birds resting in the Nine Heavens above as they flapped their wings and fled.
I had once called this wonderful sound a dragon's lament, a wail emitted by dragons in despair. A thousand years ago, this maddening cry often echoed in my ears.
"Remember this: my name is Nan Ci!" I closed my eyes, retracting my sharp fangs, savoring the metallic taste of blood in my mouth.
