Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling were being a bit too reckless. It was clear they wanted to control the two blue dragons, making them collide and become dizzy.
However, blue dragons are not necessarily as easy to deal with as ordinary monsters.
As they closed in on each other, in the instant of their charge, both blue dragons began to struggle simultaneously.
The iron wires that bound the wings and limbs snapped instantly, and even if the flying insect was flung out again, it could only maintain control for a short time.
In the collision, the two blue dragons broke free of the iron worm silk. They attempted to use the force of the sudden stop to throw off the two mistresses on their backs—
But at that moment, Qin Xinru suddenly took out the Azure Fire Dragon's Blue Winged Greatsword from her spatial scale. With one hand, she carried the greatsword, imbued with the Azure Fire Dragon's power, on her shoulder, while Zhong Xiling levitated using her flying insects.
After grabbing Qin Xinru's other hand in mid-air and charging up his power, Qin Xinru immediately swung her greatsword and smashed it directly at the two blue dragons.
As the fire pouch within the sword erupted, a powerful strike burst forth along with the scorching dragonfire, striking the even more massive blue dragon—
Although the blue dragon didn't fall immediately, it was still stunned by the attack.
Seeing this, Zhong Xiling also drew her newly forged Flying Dragon Blade, Kui. After a few swings, she noticed white wisps of energy rising from the blade, so she swung the blade according to her instincts.
With wide, sweeping slashes from both sides, Zhong Xiling then aimed at an opening on the blue dragon's side and made a feigned thrust, only managing to slash open the dragon's scales on its belly.
With a leap, Zhong Xiling quickly soared into the air, wielding her ridiculously long katana and aiming it at the most defensive part of the blue dragon's back!
The white blade of air disappeared, and many of the scales on the blue dragon's back were cut along the blade marks.
After testing the weapons, they went back to observe the battle, leaving the blue dragon and the other dragons to continue facing Volper's attacks.
The dragons weren't fools either. After the green dragons actively met Volper's attack, they deliberately lay down before they could hold on any longer—
This resulted in the three-headed green dragon having the least severe injuries among all the dragons.
On the other side, the tenacious three-headed black dragon had given it its all. It had poured a considerable amount of acidic breath onto Volper's wing membranes, and the shallow but widespread claw marks were also left by the black dragons.
However, when Wolper made room, they could not escape the fate of being trampled underfoot.
To everyone's surprise, the White Dragon exchanged a few blows with Volper. Using ice magic with all its might, and with few of its companions standing nearby, the White Dragon went berserk, attempting to injure Volper with its magic.
But the final result was not good. With just brute force, Volper was able to shatter the ice blades and other attacks that the white dragon had conjured.
As he was trampled underfoot by Volper, the White Dragon lost his last bit of fighting spirit.
All that remained were the Red Dragon, who fought relentlessly, and the Blue Dragon, who had regrouped.
A direct confrontation would not yield good results. Although Volper did not shatter the red dragon's bones, the sight of the dragon's scales and flesh torn apart when it fell terrified ordinary civilians.
This unprecedented dragon battle in the city of Palemoon ended with the victory of the Purple Dragon.
"My two mistresses, the matter has been resolved."
Walper regained his human form and bowed to Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling.
“Okay, Wolper…should we treat them? They look like they’re badly injured.”
In times of crisis, Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling can forcibly use all the Dragon Source Battle Qi stored inside the Dragon Source Crystal to strengthen themselves.
If they wish, they can also absorb a large amount of Dragon Source Battle Qi to give the dragons even more powerful attacks.
After testing their skills, the two of them gained the strength of a lower-tier third-order fighter.
For the two who had accumulated considerable resources within the Dragon Transformation Source Crystal, this kind of improvement was indeed a natural and inevitable outcome.
Even those with Dragon Origin Battle Qi often struggle to encounter suitable dragons or other dragon species. But Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling are no ordinary people; they are capable of healing dragons.
"Hehe~ No need! For these poor dragons fleeing in disarray, nothing heals them better than treasure. Don't you agree, Your Highness?"
Walper looked at Qin He, who nodded on the projected screen and said:
"Mom, she's right. Just give these dragons some red envelopes (cash gifts), and that should solve the problem. As for their injuries, they'll heal quickly."
As a soldier of the dragon, she was clearly distinguishable from Volper and the others in Qin He's eyes. If Volper didn't want to waste too many resources, Qin He wouldn't make a special request.
"Red envelope?"
Wolper didn't understand what Qin He was referring to, but he saw Zhong Xiling searching for something in the spatial scale. Presumably, a red envelope was another way of representing wealth.
"Qin He, just because it will heal quickly doesn't mean it won't hurt. If you go to war with dragons in the future and don't care whether they get injured or not, won't they rebel against you?"
"Alright~ Let's just say it's a way for Mom to practice her healing spells. You agree, right?"
Qin Xinru's considerations were quite comprehensive; however, in a proper dragon war, there were quite a few dragon priests with formidable healing abilities.
On the battlefield, dragons can directly devour human warriors' warhorses, griffins, and even any mounts, including wyverns, to replenish their energy.
Unless trapped in a magic-suppressing zone and besieged by a large and well-equipped human army, dragons will always hold an overwhelming advantage.
Moreover, Qin He possesses the bearing of an emperor. Those who trust him will not betray him.
As long as Qin He isn't incompetent and foolish, even if he were just a ruler who maintained the status quo of Bahamut and Tiamat, he could conquer the whole world effortlessly.
Turning back, Volper addressed the dragon's minions, who lay sprawled about:
“Did you hear that? The mistress said she's willing to provide treatment for you. This level of injury is far from a setback; you'll be fine after a few days of rest.”
"But the mistress is still willing to treat you well, which is very good. Now, come and receive your treatment~"
He regained his human form, but the only healing methods available to Volper were herbs, medicines, and some red crystals; he had no healing magic whatsoever.
Just as she was trying to get the medicine, Qin Xinru stepped forward. Having absorbed the dragon core of the golden dragon given to them by Bahamut, the two of them gained the ability to heal others with light-based magic.
Qin Xinru's existing demonic energy reserves were insufficient to heal the scales of several giant dragons. However, if she used the dragon energy stored in the Dragon Transformation Crystal, she could convert the demonic energy for her own use.
Releasing a few basic healing halos, the spreading light-elemental magic restored most of the dragons' strength.
Upon seeing Qin Xinru release demonic energy that was inconsistent with her strength level, Volper knew that Qin Xinru was using the Dragon Transformation Source Crystal, and hurriedly said:
“Mistress, please leave such a minor matter of treatment to me. I have enough medicine here; they will eat it themselves.”
As he spoke, Volper summoned piles of recovery medicines, magic potions, herbs, and even some cooked meat from magical beasts.
Apart from common medicines, they are mostly rare items that can only be collected in the outside world.
This sight made the surrounding crowd swallow hard.
"Are you done yet, Red Dragon? Are you still causing trouble? If not, come over here and bow down to the Dragon Emperor!"
With a playful look in his eyes, Volper wanted to see submission in the red dragon's eyes. However, the red dragon didn't seem to be buying it; it seemed to want to stuff itself to death, snatching the herbs from the ground and swallowing them whole.
Dragons have an amazing ability to recover. The huge wound that was gushing out dragon blood just now has now been healed so tightly that it is almost invisible.
Some injuries that would have caused scars were also smoothed out by the healing effects of the herbs.
“Chief, we dragons obey you and are loyal to His Highness the Dragon Emperor and the Mistress behind you! But when I feel confident in challenging you, I will not hesitate to knock you to the ground.”
As he spoke, Red Dragon shoveled all the bottles and jars of recovery potions into his mouth. The sound of glass shattering rang out.
“Very good, Mom, Aunt Zhong, give these dragons a reward. I will make up for the expenses later.”
As soon as Qin He finished speaking, Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling began to scold him playfully—
"What do you mean, 'yours' or 'mine'? You naughty boy, even you are Mommy's man! Don't worry—"
"Mom wouldn't spend money on herself? You better behave yourself over there. ~ I'll pay your salary for you, okay?"
Zhong Xiling chimed in from the side:
"Qin He, if your mother needs gold coins, we'll take them from you when we get back!"
This "want" clearly didn't refer to any treasure. Qin He, who had barely rested, immediately perked up under the seductive allure of the two beautiful women.
Chapter 280 Talking about Housing and Wages
Seeing Qin He's expression, both Qin Xinru and Zhong Xiling were also moved. However, this dazed look only lasted for a moment—
Because next to Qin He, there was a restless, soft creature. Fei Xue lay on Qin He's lap, repeatedly pressing down his erect penis with her cat paws.
There are many types of paw pads on cats, and the Purple Lightning Cat's are undoubtedly the softest. Seeing Fei Xue supporting Qin He's gun like this, their smiles deepened.
"Alright~ Qin He, you must be busy tonight too, right? Let's give these dragons red envelopes first. Don't forget to take good care of Xiu Xiu tonight~"
Qin Xinru joked with the young couple, and then decided to recruit this group of dragons.
With Wolper's suppression as an aid, these chromatic dragons couldn't cause much of a stir.
"No rush, I need to talk to them about their future treatment."
As Qin He spoke, he hoisted Fei Xue, whose body was stretching out gracefully, onto his shoulder. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in the dragon's nest within the spatial scale.
To avoid being located in Yan Ling's area, Qin He specially built a marble dragon castle on an open space. This castle was specially manufactured using robots mass-produced by the Electronic Terminal Dragon Workshop.
Compared to the architectural styles of some giants, robots are much more refined.
The projected image shows various precious decorations that have been meticulously polished.
The floors and walls are made of the finest stone, and there is a collection of exquisite murals from some of the dragon's nests.
Exquisite Bahamut sculptures and carpets made from expensive monster fur.
The fountain, cast in pure silver, features clear, tinkling water that flows into a pool below where gold coins are submerged, the shimmering silver water bringing a sense of tranquility.
The back garden is quite elegant and spacious, even home to rare birds and exotic animals that sing and dance. Correspondingly, there are also studios and a library—
For a golden dragon that enjoys human life, although it can build a nest anywhere, having such a fortress is definitely the best thing.
While these human decorations might not hold much appeal for a chromatic dragon, the key is that these collectibles are all exceptionally valuable.
"I know what you're thinking. Come and see the most important part of a dragon castle."
Inside the palace, there is a bedroom specifically for Ulu to rest in.
The treasures piled up here made the dragons drool with desire, wishing they could immediately seize this dragon castle and count the treasures inside—
Qin He knew that while a single Dragon Crystal coin might be impressive, it lacked any real flair.
After sleeping on the dragon crystal coin bed for a while, Sang Shen and the others spread their own gold and silver treasures on these extremely valuable dragon crystal coins.
Therefore, what the dragons saw was gold, silver, jewelry, and all kinds of rare minerals, with the bottom layer being the dragon crystal coins that drove them crazy.
Dragon Crystal Coins are currencies made by melting gold and silver with some common treasures in a specific ratio and incorporating the magic essence and aura of dragons. The cost is actually not high.
It is equivalent in value to amethyst coins because amethyst coins can be used to buy the raw materials for dragon crystal coins.
Generally, a sanctified dragon can create Dragon Crystals by infusing it with its essence and energy. Its value primarily lies in the "Dragon Crafting Fee."
However, their ability to absorb and store energy to aid in cultivation is quite popular.
Whether it's demonic energy or natural energy existing within the ancient dragon's body, Dragon Crystal Coins can absorb and utilize it, and then reciprocate when needed.
Therefore, some young ancient dragons at the Saint rank who are currently active in the outside world also acknowledge the purchasing power of Dragon Crystals from the Dragon Domain Council.
Basically, all creatures that need to cultivate and become stronger will not refuse Dragon Crystal Coins.
The Dragon Domain Council's greatest intellectual achievement, such precious currency, was spread across the marble floor tiles and enjoyed by the golden dragons.
Qin He, cradling the petite purple electric cat in his arms, revealed Nidhogg's true form. Its scales, unlike those of ordinary black dragons, gleamed with a sharp, more aggressive luster than those of an obsidian dragon.
The red dragon immediately understood that Qin He before it was probably still an immature dragon. However, he possessed the aura of a peak Saint-level expert.
What is his background?
"This is the treatment I prepare for my dragons, which only accounts for a small portion of my assets. If I wish, I can even exempt you from paying tribute."
"What? Red Dragon, this is merely the palace of a seventh-tier peak golden dragon. Do you still intend to abandon the wealth I've bestowed upon you and tear me apart?"
Looking at Qin He and the wealth he promised, Red Dragon swallowed hard and said:
“Your Highness, the red dragon before you is not a fanatic. My faith in Her Majesty the Dragon Queen is merely a matter of respect for the great Dragon King.”
Although the red dragon is savage, it doesn't mean it doesn't use its brain.
As long as Tiamat doesn't show up in person, what does it matter if he secretly says he believes in Bahamut?
Even if Tiamat were actually here, she wouldn't be angry upon hearing these words.
The colorful dragons' desire for treasure did not force them to give up immediate benefits for the sake of their faith.
The chromatic dragons living outside the Forsaken Lands knew very little about Tiamat, let alone worshipped her.
"Alright, you can call me Dragon Emperor. I believe Her Majesty Tiamat, whom you worship, won't object."
As he spoke, Qin He took out the scales Tiamat had given him. The oppressive aura of the Five-Colored Dragon Queen immediately manifested, but it was on the shrine behind her—
A shrine adorned with colorful emblems floated slowly in, and Tiamat pulled the ten dragons into the realm of consciousness.
“My subjects, listen to him. Qin He is the future new master of the dragon, appointed by me, Bahamut, and Sadiwo.”
Too lazy to waste words, Tiamat explained Qin He's identity to the fleeing chromatic dragons.
"From now on, you will be under the command of the purple dragon that wields the small whip. You will assist these two human adventurers, who are the mother of the Dragon Emperor."
