Long Li watched as Jiang Yu, who was utterly shocked and disoriented, had his cold lips curving up almost imperceptibly once more.
This little girl seems genuinely shocked.
However, her reaction was normal.
Even in the Big Dipper Star Region, the True Dragon is a powerful race standing at the top of all races. Ordinary cultivators may not be able to see the true form of a pure-blooded True Dragon even once in their lifetime, let alone feel its supreme dragon might at such close range.
Jiang Yu comes from the ancestral star that is said to have long since lost all traces of gods and demons, so it is not surprising that he behaves this way upon first meeting him.
Moreover... for some reason, seeing Jiang Yu staring at the purple-gold dragon with such fascination and shock, Long Li felt a subtle sense of pride and satisfaction.
After all, she was also a true dragon, and one of the most noble princesses of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest bloodline.
Jiang Yu's awe and shock at the real dragon also gave her a sense of satisfaction in a certain sense.
Now she roughly understands why Jiang Feng specifically instructed that a real dragon be arranged to guide his sister.
It turns out that this little princess has such a deep obsession and love for dragons.
"What's wrong? Were you scared?" Long Li suppressed her smile and asked calmly, her purple eyes filled with inquiry.
"N-no! It's just...it's just too...too..." Jiang Yu suddenly snapped back to reality, but her eyes still couldn't tear themselves away from the purple-gold dragon. Her voice stammered with excitement, "It's so domineering! So cool! My god! I actually saw a dragon! Alive! Moving! And right in front of me!"
She was incoherent, her cheeks flushed with excitement, gesturing wildly, eager to rush up and touch the shimmering scales, but intimidated by the dragon's overwhelming might, she dared not act rashly.
The scene before her eyes was a million times more shocking than all her previous fantasies about the world of cultivation!
Dragon! This is the totem of the Chinese nation, a supreme being in mythology and legend!
When she was a child, she watched "Journey to the West" and various mythological dramas, and was filled with endless imagination about dragons. She never thought that she would be able to see one in person and get so close to it in her lifetime.
The tension and fear brought by the group of monks had long since been swept away by this tremendous surprise.
But after calming down, she couldn't help but feel a wave of fear.
If it weren't for Sister Long Li's timely appearance, and if it weren't for this divine dragon... those monks were clearly not good people. As a mere cultivator at the Divine Bridge Realm, falling into their hands in the unfamiliar Beidou region would have been unimaginable.
This cultivation world is indeed a dog-eat-dog world; a disagreement can easily lead to a life-or-death struggle, making it even more cruel and direct than what's depicted in novels.
"Sister Long Li," Jiang Yu calmed herself down slightly, but her gaze still couldn't help but drift towards the quietly crouching purple-gold dragon. She asked with concern, "Those monks... they claim to be from 'Golden Light Temple.' They seem to be quite powerful, and they look rather fierce. Could they be some kind of powerful force? Will we get into trouble if we attack them?"
In her limited understanding, Buddhism was often a formidable force in this world of high martial arts, with Buddhist kingdoms and Pure Lands frequently mentioned, filled with countless eminent monks and powerful beings.
What if this Golden Light Temple has some powerful backer...?
Upon hearing this, a hint of understanding flashed in Long Li's purple eyes. It seemed that although this little girl was here for the first time, she was not completely ignorant of the power distribution of Beidou.
She nodded slightly, her tone calm yet carrying an undeniable certainty: "Buddhism is indeed one of the great religions of our time, with a long history and profound foundation, especially Mount Sumeru in the Western Desert, which is unfathomable."
Jiang Yu's heart tightened.
"However," Long Li changed the subject, a faint, mocking smile reappearing at the corner of her lips, "let alone them, even if it were Amitabha Buddha, currently the most powerful figure in Buddhism, we wouldn't be afraid!"
She spoke casually, but the confidence and pride she conveyed made Jiang Yu's heart pound.
Long Li... that sounds incredibly impressive!
That guy managed to get her to come pick him up, and she went to such lengths for him...
My brother is definitely not bad either!
"Alright, it's nothing, don't worry about it."
Long Li stopped talking about the group of ant-like wild monks and turned her gaze to the purple-gold divine dragon. "Let's go and leave this place first."
"Didn't you want to go to your brother's place?"
"Ah? Oh, right!" Jiang Yu nodded quickly, looking at Long Li expectantly. "How are we going to get there? Fly? Or use a teleportation array?"
Long Li did not answer, but simply nodded slightly at the purple-gold dragon.
As if receiving a command, the purple-gold dragon slowly began to move its massive, previously crouching body.
It lowered its proud dragon head, bent its long neck, and brought its head close to Jiang Yu and Long Li.
The dragon calmly glanced at Jiang Yu with its amber eyes, then slightly opened its mouth and let out a low, but no longer intimidating, but rather urging sound.
"Let's go up."
As Long Li spoke, she took the lead and lightly leaped, landing gracefully on the broad, flat back of the Purple-Gold Divine Dragon's neck where it met its spine.
The scales covering the area are relatively smooth, as if naturally forming a comfortable saddle.
Go up?
Jiang Yu looked at the magnificent and majestic creature in front of him, exuding a faint dragon's might, and then at Long Li, who was already standing steadily on the dragon's back. His mind was once again a little confused.
"Up...up?" She pointed at the purple-gold dragon, her voice trembling. "Sit...sit on its back? It...it's willing?"
"It was originally here to pick you up, so why wouldn't you want to?" Long Li said calmly, extending a hand towards her. "Come on, don't be afraid, it's very docile."
Sit... on a mount!
Jiang Yu felt as if her worldview had been violently shaken once again.
Using a pure-blooded purple-gold divine dragon that looks so magnificent, so majestic, and whose strength is unfathomable as... a mount!
This treatment, this grandeur, it's simply unbelievable!
Dude, this is way too much! This isn't just "doing well," it's practically "becoming a top-tier boss"!
Under Long Li's encouraging gaze, Jiang Yu took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart and a trace of instinctive fear of riding a dragon, and followed Long Li's example, leaping into the air.
Now a cultivator at the Divine Bridge Realm, she was light and agile, and her leap landed steadily on the dragon's back, right behind Long Li.
Beneath my feet were cool, hard, yet strangely warm and smooth purple-gold scales, which felt incredibly realistic to the touch.
As soon as she stood firm, the purple-gold dragon let out a long roar, its huge body swaying gently, and its four strong claws slammed into the ground.
"boom!"
The ground trembled slightly, and dust rose up.
The next second, Jiang Yu felt a strong push against his back, and the scene in front of him was rapidly descending and moving away!
The wind whistled past her ears, making her hair fly and her clothes flutter.
A purple-gold dragon carried them, soaring into the sky!
"Wow!" Jiang Yu couldn't help but exclaim, but the exclamation quickly turned into an excited shout, "It's flying! It's really flying!"
She gripped the cold scales beneath her tightly, looking down at them.
The hillsides, forests, and mountains beneath my feet quickly shrank, and the entire outline of the Lingxu Cave site came into view. Further away, the vast land unfolded like a scroll, with rivers like ribbons, lakes like mirrors, and majestic or precipitous peaks rising one after another. Various strange birds flew across the sky, and a sea of clouds flowed around me...
All of this was a million times more thrilling than the fastest roller coaster or skydiving she had ever experienced!
And this is real flight!
Riding a dragon and soaring through the sky! This is a scene that so many people dream of! And now it has actually happened to her!
Jiang Yu felt her heart was about to leap out of her chest. Excitement, thrill, pride, and a touch of unreal daze—all these emotions intertwined, making her want to shout at the top of her lungs.
She couldn't help but turn around and glance at Long Li behind her, who looked calm and composed, as if she were just riding an ordinary horse. She was simply gazing at the sea of clouds in front of her, her beautiful profile seemingly radiating a faint halo in the sunlight, noble and mysterious.
"Brother... just how high have you reached in this world?" Jiang Yu wondered again.
Could it be that my brother has become a distinguished guest of some dragon clan? Or... is he already one of the few people standing at the pinnacle of the Big Dipper?
Thinking back to when he was on Earth, he was complacent about breaking through the divine bridge, stopping cars with his bare body, and being invulnerable to swords and spears. Now, looking at the grandeur of others, his own achievements are simply not worth mentioning.
However, despite her shock, Jiang Yu felt an indescribable sense of pride and reassurance.
The more powerful her brother is, the stronger her backing and the more secure her safety will be in this unfamiliar world.
Although she knew she couldn't act recklessly just because of her brother's influence.
After all, the supporting characters in novels who betray their parents and brothers don't usually end up well, but at least as a newcomer, I have a better understanding of the situation.
Just as she was lost in thought, feeling both excited and sentimental, she suddenly remembered something extremely important!
