Chapter 82
Consequently, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing began to tell Ziyan about Jiang Yue's recent situation.
His words were filled with a father's pride for his daughter, and every detail was described so vividly that it was as if Ziyan could see the lively and adorable Jiang Yue with her own eyes.
Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing mentioned that Jiang Yue was now able to speak clearly and walk steadily.
Speaking of this, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing could not help but feel a bit smug; that was the unique pride and self-satisfaction of a father.
Listening to Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's description, Ziyan's eyes also sparkled with surprise.
While Ziyan felt happy for Jiang Yue's intelligence, she also felt a bit of regret—regret for missing the time when Jiang Yue learned to speak and walk.
Thinking that Jiang Yue could already speak now, an infinite sense of anticipation and curiosity welled up in Ziyan's heart, and she asked almost impulsively, "Then Yueyue, did she say she missed me?"
However, the moment the words left her mouth, Ziyan immediately realized her slip of the tongue.
The time she spent with Jiang Yue was only the half-month right after Jiang Yue was born.
Immediately, Ziyan said affirmatively, "Right, Yueyue is so smart, as long as she sees me, she will definitely be able to remember me."
The Great Elder laughed, as if he had seen through Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's confusion, and explained, "Haha, I forgot to introduce myself. I am the Great Elder of the Taixu Ancient Dragon, Qingshan. I just came out of seclusion, so it is normal that you, little friend, do not know me."
Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing saw Ziyan's disappointment; he patted Ziyan's head and comforted her, "Ziyan, don't be sad. Yueyue is a smart child; perhaps she will remember you when she sees you."
Having understood the situation from Zhuli, the Great Elder had a face full of black lines the moment he stepped out of the great hall and heard Ziyan's words about leaving.
She knew that such an expectation of hers was somewhat unrealistic, but she just couldn't help fantasizing about whether Jiang Yue would still remember her.
At this moment, Ziyan's desire to see Jiang Yue reached its peak.
Seeing Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing looking over, the Great Elder revealed a warm smile on his face, as if a spring breeze were brushing against his face, making one feel warm inside.
"I want to go to the Jiang Family!" Ziyan said firmly.
Hearing this, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing looked at Zhuli, who was following behind the Great Elder, and asked with confusion, "Senior, who are you?"
He spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of gratitude: "You must be little friend Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing. I heard from Elder Zhuli; I am truly grateful to you, little friend, for helping our Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan."
At that time, Jiang Yue was still just a baby who only knew how to cry; how could she possibly have memories, and how could she possibly remember her?
Hearing this light cough from the Great Elder, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing turned his head in some confusion, his gaze falling upon the Great Elder.
He thought to himself: How is it that as soon as Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing arrives, he wants to abduct our own Dragon Emperor??
Consequently, the Great Elder gave a light cough.
A trace of disappointment welled up in Ziyan's heart; she gently bit her lower lip, her gaze somewhat dim.
Ziyan suddenly raised her head, her eyes sparkling with light, as if she had seen hope.
Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing suddenly realized, and he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Oh, so you are Great Elder Qingshan! I have long admired you."
"Back then, little friend, you not only helped us find the Dragon Emperor but also helped the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan unify the Dragon Islands. I was in seclusion cultivating at the time and failed to express my gratitude to you in person, which I have always deeply regretted. Now that you, little friend, have come to the Dragon Island in person, how could I miss this rare opportunity? Please stay your steps and allow me to host a banquet to entertain you properly."
The Great Elder was calculating; since their own Dragon Emperor was so determined to leave the Dragon Island for the Jiang Family, he could only say this to temporarily keep Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing and the Dragon Emperor.
Moreover, he did indeed want to thank Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing properly.
Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing smiled slightly and said to the Great Elder, "Great Elder, you are too kind. Sister Ziyan is like a real sister to me in my heart; helping the Taixu Ancient Dragon is only right."
Hearing this, the Great Elder raised his eyebrows slightly and feigned anger, saying, "Little friend Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing, are you looking down on my Dragon Island? Since you already regard Ziyan as your own sister, if you refuse again, that would be looking down on everyone on my Dragon Island and looking down on our Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan."
"Could it be that little friend Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing looks down on my Dragon Island?" the Great Elder pretended to be somewhat angry.
Seeing this, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing hurriedly waved his hands to explain, "Great Elder, you have misunderstood. I have absolutely no such intention; it is just that I still have important matters to attend to and cannot stay for long."
The Great Elder was confused and asked, "I wonder what matters little friend Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing has? Why not say it out loud? Our Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan will definitely do our utmost to help with your matters, little friend."
Qingshan's words carried a sense of sincerity and firmness; clearly, these words were not merely polite pleasantries.
After all, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing had helped their Taixu Ancient Dragon so much; if Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing had matters, they would certainly help—this was beyond doubt.
Since the atmosphere had reached this point, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing had no choice but to state his purpose.
Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing: "To be honest with the Great Elder, I came to the Dragon Island this time not only to visit Ziyan but also to ask the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan for a favor."
The Great Elder said generously, "Little friend Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing, just say it. As long as it is something our Taixu Ancient Dragon can do, we will definitely help you, little friend."
After organizing his words, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing said, "I heard that the Pill Tower obtained an Exotic Fire named the Three Thousand Burning Flame, which is now trapped within that Star Domain. That Star Domain has been sealed with restrictions. I heard that the Taixu Ancient Dragon can ignore restrictions, so I would like to ask you, the Taixu Ancient Dragon, to help me enter and obtain that Exotic Fire."
Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing did not mention the matter of the Dragon Seal because the outside world did not know that the Taixu Ancient Dragon had once subdued the Three Thousand Burning Flame.
Hearing Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's request, the Great Elder burst into loud laughter, his voice filled with generosity and confidence.
He said, "Haha, little friend Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing, you have found the right person this time! Our Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan can indeed ignore restrictions. Moreover, you might not know that the Three Thousand Burning Flame was once subdued by a powerhouse of our Taixu Ancient Dragon, who left a Dragon Seal upon it."
"The Three Thousand Burning Flame was once subdued by a Taixu Ancient Dragon powerhouse?" Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing looked shocked, though of course, this was feigned.
The Great Elder nodded and smiled, "That's right, little friend. So, leave this matter to me. You can just wait on the Dragon Island with peace of mind for a few days. In a few days, I will bring the Three Thousand Burning Flame to you and hand over the Dragon Seal as well. With this Dragon Seal, it will be even easier for you to subdue that Three Thousand Burning Flame."
Although this Three Thousand Burning Flame had been subdued by their Taixu Ancient Dragon and logically belonged to their Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, for a Dou Saint powerhouse like Qingshan, other than the top five Exotic Fires, other Exotic Fires had absolutely no attraction to them.
Since it was useless, it was better to give it to Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing readily.
Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing had originally only wanted to find a helper to help him enter that Star Domain; he did not expect this Great Elder to take full responsibility and say that he would handle this matter.
Since that was the case, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing did not decline any further.
He cupped his hands toward the Great Elder and said, "Then many thanks to the Great Elder."
The Great Elder laughed and said, "Little friend, you are too polite. Just stay here with peace of mind and wait for good news."
Thinking that the Great Elder of the Pill Tower was a two-star Dou Saint, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing did not forget to remind him, "The Great Elder of the Pill Tower is a two-star Dou Saint; Great Elder, please be careful."
The Great Elder did not care at all: "We Taixu Ancient Dragons are skilled in space power; little friend, please rest assured."
