Chapter 111: I Haven't Yet

……

"I raise it?" Jiang Shaoxu looked bewildered.

"No, are you really giving it to me?"

She was not Mo Fan; if she had such a precious sub-dragon in her hands, her family would provide her with the corresponding resources, so she could afford to raise a sub-dragon.

But, something worth billions, just given away like that?

"Raise it well; it is also our token of love. As its mother, you cannot mistreat it," Lv Cheng said.

"As its mother?" Jiang Shaoxu's face flushed red.

"I..."

"By the way, its species is the Dark Moon Demon Dragon, and its ability... you can understand it as having a Space Element lineage," Lv Cheng said.

"Moreover, like Yan Ji, it has the characteristics of an Elemental Demon and cannot produce offspring through the breeding methods of normal creatures, so you must absolutely not think about breeding it!"

The corner of Jiang Shaoxu's eye twitched, "It's only this big, how could I possibly think about breeding it?"

"I am talking about your family," Lv Cheng said.

"Also, do not let people take it away for research as a rare species; otherwise, I, as its father, will go on a rampage."

The ability to manipulate gravity could be disguised and explained away in the early stages using the Mind Control of the Space Element, but after reaching the Growth Stage, the huge difference between the Gravity Magic possessed by the Dark Moon Demon Dragon and Space Element magic would become apparent.

There was also this reason, which is why he had to find people with backgrounds to raise these dragon cubs of his.

"By the way, if you want to maximize the power of the Dark Moon Demon Dragon, it would be better to awaken the Summoning Element for your next element," Lv Cheng said.

For large families, if they want to awaken a certain element in the later stages, they only need to use the corresponding Guidance Stone during the awakening ceremony; it is not the mass-produced Awakening Stone found on the market, but the high-end kind with a success rate of over eighty percent.

Jiang Shaoxu looked puzzled, "Why?"

A Mind Element Mage is actually also suitable for raising dragons because they can communicate directly through telepathy, and those raised from the Infant Stage are generally raised like sons or daughters and are very obedient when they grow up.

"Because the Dark Moon Demon Dragon can also perform possession," Lv Cheng said.

"How do you know?" Jiang Shaoxu looked strange.

"It's my dragon cub, of course I know what abilities it has," Lv Cheng said.

His little demon dragon had the characteristics of an Elemental Demon like Yan Ji and could perform possession; modifying bloodlines might be difficult for this world, but for a Dark Wizard like Tso Lan, it was actually just a matter of a Magic Spell.

"Besides, only if it becomes your Contract Beast will I be at ease," Lv Cheng said.

Simply raising it would still easily lead to accidents, but if it were a Contract Beast, not only would Jiang Shaoxu be more dedicated, but the Jiang Clan would also not act recklessly.

After all, it was his cub; if it were abused by someone...

The Evil Dragon Legion would likely have to be deployed ahead of schedule.

……

"Holy crap?!"

"Teacher Lv, Brother Cheng!!"

"Are you a dragon egg wholesaler?!"

The group led by Zhao Manyan, who had just returned from visiting Dunhuang City, saw the baby dragon in Jiang Shaoxu's arms the moment they arrived in the hall.

No need to guess, this thing must have been given by Lv Cheng!

"You... have a dragon-attracting constitution?" Lingling looked strange.

Everything you summon with the Summoning Element is a dragon, and the eggs you pick up when you go out are also dragon eggs; why don't you turn yourself into a dragon sometime?

"Is this... a new breed of sub-dragon?" Zhao Manyan looked with envy at the baby dragon sleeping in Jiang Shaoxu's arms.

"A-Cheng said it has a Space Element lineage," Jiang Shaoxu said.

"But we still have to raise it to see for sure."

"A-Cheng, just how many dragon eggs do you have?" Ai Tutu's expression was somewhat unnatural.

How could he give someone such a valuable item just a few days after meeting them?

They didn't have anything yet.

"She is a Mind Element Mage, it is safe to raise it," Lv Cheng said.

"Xinxia and Yumian are not in a convenient position, and you don't have the Mind Element, nor even the Summoning Element; not only is it unsafe, but I am also not at ease."

"Then if I awaken the Summoning Element at the High level, will I have a dragon egg?" Ai Tutu asked, somewhat anxiously.

It had been so long for them, and there hadn't been the slightest movement!

How many days had this Jiang fox known him?

Was she really going to be overtaken by a latecomer?

"You want to raise one that much?" Lv Cheng found it somewhat amusing.

"You can't even take care of yourself; raising a dragon is very hard work."

The main thing is that the resource consumption for raising a dragon is terrifying; the growth consumption of his demon dragon is much more terrifying than that of a normal sub-dragon, and the average person cannot afford to raise it.

Ding Yumian and Ye Xinxia were still relying on him to support them, and these two could not be too conspicuous, so he did not plan to let them raise one for the time being.

"But, she has one..." Ai Tutu felt somewhat aggrieved.

She wasn't greedy for a dragon egg, but the Jiang fox, who had only known him for a few days, had one, and she didn't.

"Stop, stop, stop." Lv Cheng took out a dragon egg with colorful patterns and handed it to Ai Tutu.

"Don't cry, I'll give you one."

"This is... a dragon egg?" Ai Tutu said with a strange expression.

"You wouldn't just be taking some ostrich egg to fool me, would you?"

The corner of Lv Cheng's eye twitched, "This is a rare breed!"

The Sky Demon Dragon is currently the only multi-attribute demon dragon!

Although it cannot directly manipulate the weather like Ximu and him, the Sky Demon Dragon has another way.

By exhaling and inhaling clouds, it can create weather changes anytime, anywhere!

"Oh..." Ai Tutu happily hugged the colorful Dragon Egg in her arms.

Whether it was real or fake, even if it were an ostrich egg painted with pigments, she would accept it!

Looking at the happy Ai Tutu, and the baby dragon in Jiang Shaoxu's arms, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became somewhat subtle.

Even Xinxia's gaze was a bit strange.

A baby dragon, she wanted one too...

"..."

The corners of Lv Cheng's eyes twitched wildly.

Right now, he really couldn't produce any more!

There was only one Dark Magic Dragon egg left; who should he give it to?

Damn it! If he had known, he wouldn't have taken the eggs out so early!

One should not worry about scarcity, but about inequality!

With the Zhuoyuan matter concluded, Lv Cheng and his party returned to the Magic City.

Ai Jiangtu and Zhang Xiaohou were both busy returning to the military region, and Mo Fan, having obtained the Little Fire Dragon, once again threw himself into the tense life of cultivating and earning money.

"You guys are already living together, huh~"

Jiang Shaoxu, like a curious baby, followed Lv Cheng and his party back home.

Hearing the word "living together," the expressions of Mu Nujiao and the other young women varied.

The only thing missing was the shyness Jiang Shaoxu had expected to see.

"Hmm?" Jiang Shaoxu looked at Lv Cheng with some surprise.

"Is your harem this harmonious? I couldn't tell."

Lv Cheng is this capable?

"Harmonious?" Lv Cheng's expression turned strange.

Ding Yumian is fine; because of her status as a Sufferer, this girl views herself as having sold herself to him, and regarding his romantic life, she is mostly in the state of a spectator; in other words, this girl has no intention of "competing," so she has the best relationship with Ye Xinxia.

But Mu Nujiao is different; at the beginning, the atmosphere between her and Ye Xinxia was simply eerie!

Even though they looked like sisters with deep affection, it made him feel a chill down his spine time and time again!

If it weren't for Ai Tutu, that silly girl who can't read the room, often acting as a peacemaker at home, the atmosphere here wouldn't be so harmonious!

Fools have their own luck; no one in this house treats Ai Tutu as a rival, so this girl has also indirectly helped him solve the conflict issues within his harem.

Moreover, conflicts are generally caused by the unequal distribution of benefits.

The only "conflict of interest" in this house right now is him!

"Oh~" Jiang Shaoxu's expression turned subtle.

"So you really are an expert~"

Having lived together for so long, this guy hasn't touched a single one of them, yet he treats them so well; this kind of one-sided giving makes these girls subconsciously feel that they owe Lv Cheng, so no one is willing to do anything that would make things difficult for him.

As a Mind Element Mage, she knows all too well what the reality of emotional problems is.

It's just like doing business: only with investment can there be a return.

Some people make a fortune, while others lose everything.

Vision and luck are very important, one could even say they are paramount; secondly, the method of capital injection and the timing also bring different effects.

Emotions are the same; those so-called "simps" are like idiots in the stock market who are wishful thinking, foolishly believing that giving will lead to a return; no matter how miserably they die, they are not worth sympathizing with.

Reality will not show mercy to anyone just because they lost miserably or are pitiful.

Therefore, people who are successful in the business world would never have the kind of "love-struck" mentality seen in movies and TV dramas.

If they can handle the open and hidden arrows of the business world with ease, how could they not handle a young girl?

Even if they do, it's just an act, a means to add a little spice to their emotional life.

Just like Lv Cheng; he knows very well how to solve these emotional problems perfectly, but he doesn't over-calculate; playing dumb at the right time is also very important.

After all, Lv Cheng is a powerful Mind Element Mage; he is perfectly clear about the thoughts and emotions of these young girls, so there is no such thing as him being unable to handle it.

The clumsiness and shamelessness that appear are all intentional on Lv Cheng's part.

Because he knows what to do to make these girls feel helpless toward him, yet unable to let go.

"I don't know if they are lucky or unlucky," Jiang Shaoxu said inexplicably.

"What do you think?" Lv Cheng asked.

"Me?" Jiang Shaoxu lifted the Dark Moon Demon Dragon in her arms.

"I'm not sure what they think, but I'm not losing out."

Emotions need management and maintenance, otherwise, they will fade and disappear with the slightest setback.

And Lv Cheng is clearly very good at manipulating emotions, making these girls gradually unable to leave him psychologically.

To call him a scumbag, he is indeed a scumbag.

But it cannot be denied that this guy is a good person.

Because he understands respect.

Lv Cheng is not like the playboys she has seen before; he is not frivolous, nor does he think about leaving these girls with nothing once they leave him, to the point where they can't even achieve basic independence.

On the contrary, he supports their independence and respects their choices, just like an elder in the family, providing them with guidance and help.

It's a really strange feeling, a scumbag that one cannot bring oneself to hate.
