Luo Sheng took out ăFlame Dragon Cubă and activated the card.
Suddenly, a massive red dragon appeared in the garden, immediately crushing the flowers and grass, creating a giant crop circle.
It breathed out an enormous dragonâs breath, causing the trees to sway left and right.
It whipped up a large number of leaves and petals, then looked at Luo Sheng with its big dragon eyes, lowering its head to signal him to climb on.
The moment ăFlame Dragon Cubă was summoned, it shocked everyone present.
The guards who hadnât left the castle were dumbfounded, rubbing their eyes vigorously, their legs trembling non-stop, as if they had seen something terrifying. Even the old butler inside the castle had the same reaction.
Swallowing hard, he was still grateful for having served him earlier. Being able to summon a giant dragon was something almost no one could do, and the dragonâs intimidating presence was far more shocking than the wild boar general.
Acoley, standing behind Luo Sheng, was equally surprised.
She had encountered monsters infected by dragons before, those half-dragonized creatures with formidable fighting power. Even the instructors at Feilan Academy needed to exert considerable effort to deal with them.
Although this red dragon was smaller than imagined, it still made oneâs heart skip a beat.
The fact that Luo Sheng could summon it so easily astonished her.
âIs this⌠your pet?â Acoley asked softly, feeling a bit nervous, afraid of provoking the dragon.
Luo Sheng was taken aback by Acoleyâs choice of words, then smiled, âItâs not really a pet, actually itâs just a mount dragon, though it looks scary on the outside.â
âCan dragons really be used as mounts?â Acoley still found it hard to believe.
After all, dragons were behemoths in the world, and taming them was extremely difficult because they were inherently rebellious and would rather die than submit.
âOf course, this was originally meant to be assistance for you. Sign a contract with it, and it will become an important helper for you to deal with that bad dragon in Divatu City,â Luo Sheng said seriously to Acoley.
âAh? This⌠no, no, I canât take it away. Itâs your mount, and besides, a dragon is far too valuable,â Acoley immediately shook her head.
Although she was very tempted, she understood the value of this dragon.
Becoming a dragon rider was everyoneâs dream, but there were very few dragon riders across the entire continent. It was both an honor and a heavy burden.
She had already received too much from Luo Sheng, and she feared she wouldnât be able to repay him in the future.
Luo Sheng gently stroked her head and pinched her smooth, soft cheeks, helping her tidy up her messy hair a bit.
Then he smiled and said, âDonât worry, this was originally prepared for you. Besides, that bad dragon in Divatu City can fly, but you canât. How will you defeat it?â
Acoleyâs eyes were determined as she said, âI can do it!â
âWhat if this is an engagement token for you?â Luo Sheng, seeing her so stubborn, changed his approach⌠to what he considered a better excuse.
Because if the card character didnât accept, Acoleyâs enhancement would be slightly weaker. Sometimes, it might only enhance by one or two stars, unable to create miracles, let alone cause quantitative changes to lead to qualitative ones.
Luo Sheng, of course, hoped that his card characters would become more powerful. This way, in the real world, Luo Sheng could gain more powerful abilities.
He needed the help of the cards.
âEngagement token?!â
Acoley was stunned when she heard his words.
Instantly, her face turned red, a blush spreading from her neck to her ears, even steaming up, like hot lava merging with seawater and constantly emitting steam.
She hesitated, as such a thing had never happened before, leaving her at a loss. Moreover, this was too valuable as a token of love.
âThis⌠this⌠I need to ask Grandma GuâŚâ
She started to stammer, her words unclear.This chapter was taken from NovelPing without permission.
The mindset of a young girl, excitement and hesitation intertwined, finally unable to make up her mind and having to seek help from her grandmother.
âThen letâs go ask Grandma Gu together,â Luo Sheng held Acoleyâs hand and mounted the red dragonâs back.
âOkay,â Acoley didnât resist.
Under his command, ăFlame Dragon Cubă spread its wings and flew towards the sky, furiously flapping its wings in one direction, quickly disappearing, leaving only the shocked guards and butler on the ground below the castle.
At this moment, the old butler finally came to his senses, âQuick, go check on the Count!â
Then a large group of people hurriedly rushed to the torture chamber.
Count Moss Haddis, naked, was now powerlessly slumped on the torture bed, his body covered in blood, his breathing labored.
A chaotic group of guards rushed in, originally intending to save Count Moss Haddis, but accidentally touched his wounds, causing blood to gush out. In the end, he died from excessive blood loss.
It was truly sad news.
The castle fell into mourning because of this, but no one cared about him, as his younger brother quickly took over the position of Count and eliminated the subordinates left by Moss Haddis, replacing them with new personnel.
Afterwards, he didnât dare to provoke Luo Sheng and Acoley, after all, no one wanted to see todayâs scene happen again.
In the sky above a remote village in Divatu City.
The red dragon flew past, breathing out dragonâs breath that pierced the sky.
Farmers and passersby on the ground all looked up towards the source of the sound.
âItâs a giant dragon!â Someone who saw the red-winged dragon exclaimed in surprise, inevitably feeling fear, their legs shaking, and shouting to others: âQuick, hide, dragons eat people!â
âMy goodness, a dragon actually flew over here!â
Farmers and merchants hurriedly hid in concealed places, deeply afraid of being targeted by the dragon and becoming its food.
A moment later, people looked up and watched the dragon fly towards the distant stone church, finally breathing a sigh of relief, âFortunately, itâs not coming for us.â
The crowd didnât see Luo Sheng and Acoley on the dragonâs back.
They just silently mourned for the children and elderly in the stone church, believing that everyone inside would become the dragonâs food.
Even Grandma Gu in the stone church felt the same.
She heard the dragonâs sound and saw it quickly approaching them, panicking and shouting at a group of children: âQuick, get inside the church, itâs dangerous out here!â
The children all hurriedly ran into the dilapidated church.
But the next moment.
The dragon flew in front of them and stopped, flapping its large wings and landing on a patch of grass.
Acoley, seeing Grandma Gu and the little ones, excitedly shouted, âGrandma, everyone, Iâm back!â
âItâs Sister Acoley!â
Some of the slower children, seeing Acoley on the red dragonâs back, started shouting excitedly.
Not at all afraid of the fierce-looking dragon, they came right up to it, shouting at Acoley.Visit novelpinâg.com for the full chapter.
Grandma Gu wanted to stop them, but these little ones ran faster than anyone else.
Acoley jumped down from above, then came to Grandma Gu, crying, âGrandma, Iâve come back safe and sound. I thought Iâd never see you all againâŚâ
Acoley had prepared herself for not coming back on the way to the Countâs mansion before this.
Only now, the situation was unexpected.
Grandma Gu gently stroked her face with her rough old hands, her lips trembling slightly as she said, âItâs good that youâre back, itâs good that youâre back. They didnât do anything excessive to you, did they?â
âNo, Luo Sheng protected me, weâre fine now,â Acoley said, wiping her tears and smiling.
Grandma Gu then gently patted her back, also with tears in her eyes, feeling grateful that Acoley could return safely.
Then she looked at the red dragon behind Acoley.
A group of little rascals were constantly circling around the red dragon. The scared children only watched from afar, while the brave ones had already climbed to its feet.
Some had even climbed onto its back, running around on the dragonâs back, and even using its tail as a slide, sliding down from it. The dragon didnât show any signs of anger, still looking dazed.
Grandma Gu asked, âHow did you get this dragon?â
Acoley replied, âItâs Luo Shengâs mount.â
Grandma Gu was very surprised, yet also had a look of expectation.
However, Acoley showed a hint of hesitation in front of her, and finally said softly:
âGrandma Gu, he said he wants to give me the dragon as an engagement gift. What should I do? This dragon looks very valuable, Iâm worried I wonât be able to become a qualified wife for him in the futureâŚâ
Grandma Gu, hearing these words, was stunned for a moment, then chuckled.
âIf you two are in love with each other, why worry about these things? Although Grandma Gu is a nun, I can see that he truly likes you.
After you were sent away in the carriage, he was extremely anxious. After making sure we were alright, he went after you without delay, willing to risk his life for you.
Therefore, accept this dragon. Itâs his sincere gesture, isnât it, my silly Acoley? You should have your own happiness, donât be held back by us.â
As Grandma Gu spoke, she patted Acoleyâs hand, saying earnestly.
Acoley was like her own child in her eyes, and when her child had the chance for happiness, Grandma Gu would fully support it. She nodded gently at Acoley, giving her a confident smile.
âAlright, if Grandma Gu says so, I⌠I will try hard to become a qualified wifeâŚâ Although Acoley was still a bit shy, there was a hint of determination in her tone.
Luo Sheng secretly looked at Grandma Gu, and in a place where Acoley couldnât see, he silently gave a thumbs up to the grandmother.
With her help, he could save some effort.
Grandma Gu also smiled, then patted Acoleyâs hand, âI wonât disturb you young people anymore. The dragon scared half the life out of me.â
Then Grandma Gu led a group of mischievous children into the church.
However, the little rascals were all reluctant to leave, as if the dragon was their new toy. In the end, they could only hide behind the church windows, gazing from afar.
âThisâŚâ
Acoley was somewhat at a loss, especially seeing Grandma Gu return to the church, leaving only her and Luo Sheng.
Suddenly, she didnât know how to face him.
Her heart was pounding, feeling that even battles werenât this exciting. Acoley lowered her head and came to Luo Sheng, very shyly saying, âUm⌠thank you for being so good to me. I accept your gift, butâŚâ
