Ten minutes later.
The barrier around Xia Lihua silently dissipated, revealing her full figure. She slowly opened her eyes and scanned everyone in the room.
She looked at Ji Xian with a small smile, although she was cultivating, she was still aware of what was happening in her surroundings so she saw his mischievous behavior.
She glanced over at Lin Roulan and Guo Xinyi before her gaze met Xiao Yueyin.
The moment their eyes locked on to one another. An explosive phenomenon took place within their bodies.
Time and space at this moment seemed to have stopped. A competitive flame lit from deep within their souls, followed by an irresistible urge to prove superiority!
A world-destroying draconic roar erupted from their bodies. In the space above them, two colossal phantom dragons appeared that only the two of them can see.
Above Xia Lihua is a dragon with a long snake-like body. It has two horns on its head that resembled a crown. Twelve mysterious spheres spun behind its back, each one seemingly larger than a universe. The silver scales on its body spread a radiant light that touched every corner of the multiverse, bringing a mysterious warmth throughout the endless chaos. That light manipulated time itself, causing the reversal of life and death while infusing the past, present, and future into one timeline. Its existence brought havoc throughout the boundless worlds.
On the other side, above Xiao Yueyin is a dragon that looked opposite to Xia Lihua resembling more of a lizard. Its stout body has four long, powerful limbs with icy sharp claws that are capable of easily slicing through space. Protruding from its back are a pair of bat-like wings that seems large enough to shroud the heavens! The pitch-black scales on its body emitted an inescapable suction, drawing in all colors of cosmic life making everything meaningless. This devouring affected the infinite space, causing the rearrangement of stars and dimensional shifts of all realms!
The moment these two dragons met, they roared in defiance before charging forward!Only one True Dragon can exist!
They collided and shattered into countless glass shards!
Xia Lihua's pupils shrank into a needle. Her blood boiled and a murderous thought threatened to overtake her mind. She can hear a calling from deep within her soul, trying its hardest to influence her.
She frowned, using her unbreakable Will, she quickly and easily suppressed those feelings, not giving it a single chance to take control.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yueyin was also having the same experience, but unlike Xia Lihua, she couldn't stop the feeling from invading her mind so it consumed her! A defiant roar bellowed inside her soul.
Pitch-black scales grew from her skin covering every inch of her body. Her nails grew longer, resembling more like claws, while sharp spikes emerged from her arms and legs.
On her back, were two protrusions. It grew larger until finally, it ripped through her skin, spilling blood on the floor, revealing a pair of bat-like wings.
An incredible aura at the Eighth Life Destruction exploded from Xiao Yueyin’s body!
ROOOOAR!!
Xiao Yueyin loudly shrieked, only the whites of her eyes can be seen and it was clear she had lost control. She clenched her hand and shot forward, leaving behind a black streak.
Seeing the destructive fist heading towards her, Xia Lihua calmly reached out and easily caught her hand.
“To lose yourself so easily, your will is weak. Are you even worthy of your bloodline?"
Xiao Yueyin angrily roared in response.
Shaking her head with disappointment, Xia Lihua said nothing more and sent out a kick at light speed toward her abdomen.
Xiao Yueyin was unable to react before she was sent flying, crashing into the wall. She coughed a mouth full of blood before fainting. The black scales on her body disappeared and her appearance returned to normal.
This entire event happened within just minutes!
...
“What do we do now?” Xia Lihua asked Ji Xian but her eyes remained on Xiao Yueyin.
“What do you mean? We don’t need to do anything.”
Hearing this, she had a strange expression. She turned to look at Guo Xinyi and saw she was still quietly meditating on the bed with her eyes closed. Then, she turned to Lin Roulan and saw that she was peacefully sleeping on the floor next to Ji Xian.
They were completely undisturbed by what just happened!
She gave the room an inspection and noticed that it was still intact, even the walls. That kick from her earlier should’ve destroyed the entire inn but it was actually still standing.
Glancing out the window, she noticed the city was still peaceful, seemingly unaware of what had just taken place.
Bewildered, she asked, “How?”
Ji Xian smiled, “The illusion formation, I activated it the moment I noticed something was wrong and also protected them.”
“What about the inn, the walls,?”
“There’s more to this formation than you think.”
“Hmph. Acting mysterious.” Xia Lihua was unhappy with his answer but didn’t dwell on it as her mind was still thinking about that phenomenon.
...
“What should we do about her?”
Slowly getting up from his chair, Ji Xian approached the unconscious Xiao Yueyin and brushed away her hair, allowing him to see her full appearance. The veil on her face was destroyed after her dragonification.
Even though her eyes were closed, Ji Xian can immediately tell she was a beauty on the same level as Xia Lihua.
He calmly appreciated her flawless features while gently stroking her cheeks. He sighed and inwardly thank the Heavens for his luck in meeting beautiful women.
“Pervert.”
Xia Lihua’s voice suddenly interrupted his prayer. He ignored her and continued looking at Xiao Yueyin.
“Don’t you think she looks a little similar to you?”
Xia Lihua raised an eyebrow, she carefully examined Xiao Yueyin’s face.
“No.”
Ji Xian shrugged, he put a pill into her mouth and moved it down her throat using his True Essence, then he carried her up and placed her beside Guo Xinyi.
“She probably won’t remember what happened earlier.” He said
“You don’t sound too sure.”
“Oh? You can tell?”
"…"
A while later, Xiao Yueyin, Guo Xinyi, and Lin Roulan woke up one by one.
Guo Xinyi looked at the others in confusion and felt something was wrong but wasn’t entirely sure. How long was she meditating? Why did it feel so long?
“Oh, look who’s up.”
The three turned to the voice and saw Ji Xian lazily sitting in his chair. Sitting beside him was Xia Lihua. Her head leaned to one side and was being supported by her right hand. She sat there with her legs crossed, seriously reading a book.
Guo Xinyi asked, “What happened?”
“This lowly servant doesn’t know what you mean. Did anything happen?” Ji Xian gave a lazy response and didn’t bother to come up with a reasonable explanation.
She looked at him with skepticism.
“Xinyi, Can you give us some privacy.” Xiao Yueyin suddenly said.
Guo Xinyi looked at her suspiciously but seeing that her friend didn’t want to explain, she can only nod her head. She held Lin Roulan’s hand and walked out of the room. The little girl pouted, she gave Ji Xian and Xia Lihua one last look before obediently leaving. From beginning to end, she only remembered talking to Ji Xian before feeling tired and falling asleep. Nothing abnormal.
After they left, Xiao Yueyin took a deep breath to steady her emotions, “Do you take me for a fool?”
"…"
No one responded.
Her eyebrows pinched together. She stood in front of the duo and was hesitant to look at Xia Lihua. She was afraid, she didn’t know if she would lose control again. After steadying her will and taking another deep breath, she looked at her.
Her heart skipped a beat and her blood boiled, She suddenly had an intense urge to fight!
Xiao Yueyin’s face reddened and her breathing became heavy. Her nails started to grow and patches of black scales began to slowly cover her skin.
“Are you worthy of your bloodline?.”
Suddenly, these words repeatedly resounded in her mind.
Xiao Yueyin’s face became ferocious! She tightly clenched her teeth which had turned into sharp fangs.
No! No! No! I am worthy!
I am worthy!
I am worthy!
Inside her mind, something cracked and shattered!
She suddenly felt like she had more control, immediately, she calmed her heart, her nails returned to normal and the black scales retracted. The intense urge from earlier also disappeared.
Authors Note: Not sure if I wrote it clearly enough, but Xia Lihua's dragon is more of an eastern style dragon while Xiao Yueyin's dragon is more of a western style.
