Chapter 62

The surprised voice came from Xiao Chen and Lan Nuo, while that tender beast language came from the somewhat dazed white-furred little beast Keke.

「Little Primordial Dragon」

Glancing at the white-furred little beast Keke pointing at itself with its tiny claws, still somewhat dazed, Xiao Chen simply could not associate it with the legendary holy beast primordial dragon, and couldn't help but say: "Brother Feng, Keke truly is a little primordial dragon, but its appearance has nothing to do with the dragon clan at all!"

Speaking, Xiao Chen couldn't help pointing at the two young dragons beside him.

Even though these two young dragons are not the legendary primordial dragon's form, they at least possess some primordial dragon traits, unlike the white-furred little beast Keke, which shows no trace of any dragon clan connection.

「Ee-ya」

At this moment, the white-furred little beast Keke scratched Feng Yi's clothes and also made a tender sound, as if agreeing with Xiao Chen.

「Hehe」

Chuckling lightly, Feng Yi held the little beast Keke in his arms, rubbing its soft, chubby little head, looked at Xiao Chen, and spoke in a leisurely tone: "Who says having primordial dragon blood must mean possessing dragon clan traits? Could Keke not grow to look like its father?"

「Father」

Xiao Chen let out an exclamation, suddenly realized, and blurted: "Brother Feng, you mean Keke's mother is a primordial dragon, and its father is not of the dragon clan?"

Holy crap!

Awesome!

Just how impressive is Keke's father?

He actually managed to win over a female primordial dragon!

This was the thought that spontaneously arose in Xiao Chen's mind.

「Hmm」

Feng Yi nodded, glanced unintentionally at the distant Heaven-Reaching Divine Tree, then spoke calmly: "Keke's mother is an innate primordial dragon, and its father comes from a family so powerful it's terrifying; thus, although Keke is an innate little primordial dragon, it shows no dragon clan traits."

"However, it's fortunate that it shows no primordial dragon traits, for the dragon clan bears a powerful curse: primordial dragons must not meet each other, or they will invite terrible calamity; precisely because Keke's appearance lacks dragon clan traits, it has fortunately avoided this calamity."

"I see!"

After hearing Feng Yi's explanation, Lan Nuo recalled the dragon clan secret he had mentioned earlier, a glimmer of understanding flashed in her eyes, as if she had grasped something, and she softly said: "Fellow Daoist Feng, it seems the mother of this little primordial dragon is the innate primordial dragon you spoke of earlier, the one not born under normal circumstances, right?"

Glancing at Lan Nuo, Feng Yi nodded and smiled faintly: "Fellow Daoist Lan Nuo is perceptive; Keke's mother can be seen as the dragon clan's attempt to break its own curse."

Having said that, Feng Yi stopped speaking, but Lan Nuo already understood his implied meaning.

Since the dragon clan's curse still persists, this attempt naturally failed.

Beside them, Xiao Chen, who had been lost in Keke's background, was startled by the conversation between the two.

However, recalling the rumor he had heard earlier that primordial dragons of the dragon clan cannot see each other, combined with Feng Yi's secret just now, he also vaguely guessed something.

His thoughts turning, Xiao Chen seemed to think of something, his face showing a hint of disbelief, and he couldn't help muttering: "Just what terrifying race is Keke's father, able to suppress primordial dragon blood, keeping Keke's appearance like this, showing not a trace of dragon clan traits?"

After all, the dragon clan is already one of the most powerful races in this world; any offspring of a dragon clan, no matter what other race it mixes with, will basically show dragon clan traits.

Yet Keke, as a pure-blood primordial dragon's son, shows not a trace of dragon clan traits—how abnormal is that?

From this alone one can see how terrifying Keke's father is!

「Keke's Father」

Feng Yi looked at the white-furred little beast in his arms and sighed: "That is a clan even the heavens envy."

「Ee-ya」

「Whimper」

At this moment, the white-furred little beast wore a bewildered expression, curled up in Feng Yi's arms, emitting choked, tender beast cries, like an abandoned little beast, seemingly not understanding why its parents are not by its side.

Seeing Keke's so-human sorrow, Xiao Chen felt a sour ache in his heart, feeling pity for this little beast whose parents have been absent since birth.

Even Lan Nuo, seeing the cute little beast's pitiable appearance, couldn't help but show a hint of compassion.

Stroking Keke's soft, chubby little head, Feng Yi's aura shifted, ancient dragon patterns faintly appearing around him, then his gentle voice rose, carrying a hint of comfort: "Keke, don't be sad; your parents haven't perished, they've merely gone to attend to more important matters, and you will see them again in the future."

While saying these words, Feng Yi inwardly complained endlessly about Keke's unreliable, top-notch parents.

「Ee-ya」

Seeming to understand Feng Yi's words, and perhaps soothed by the comforting tone in his voice, Keke's bewildered and sorrowful eyes cleared; it stretched out its tiny claw, pointed at itself, and uttered a tender sound.

「Naturally」

Feng Yi gently said: "When you grow up, you'll be able to see your parents."

Having said that, he pointed at the two young dragons beside him and spoke gently: "Moreover, Keke, you are not alone; you and Xiao Zi, Xiao Hei are all dragons, so the entire Dragon Island is your home, and these dragon folk are your kin."

【Xiao Zi, Xiao Hei】

Beside them, Xiao Chen hearing this, glanced at the two young dragons, and inwardly complained: "What ridiculous names are these? Not as good as my Keke!"

「Ee-ya」

Hearing Feng Yi's words, the little beast Keke's pair of big eyes lit up, instantly turning its gaze to the two young dragons, showing an excited expression.

The two young dragons at this moment stared intently at the little beast Keke, their eyes flashing with intense fighting spirit.

From the earlier words they already understood: this snow-white little beast that looks different from them is actually their kin, and moreover a little primordial dragon.

As young dragons walking the path of the primordial dragon, they eagerly yearn to defeat this strange little primordial dragon.

「Whoosh」

Keke paid no heed to the fighting spirit in their eyes, instantly turning into a white streak that landed on the head of the Stubborn Little Dragon, then hopped curiously, as if greeting it.

「Roar! 」

The Stubborn Little Dragon flew into a rage; being extremely proud, it could not tolerate anyone standing on its head, and immediately jerked its dragon head, trying to fling the white-furred little beast off.

「Whoosh」

Keke then instantly leapt onto the head of the kirin-like young dragon, provoking that young dragon to also fly into a rage.

The next moment, the two young dragons launched a direct attack at the little beast Keke.

However, the little beast Keke cared not at all, continually jumping back and forth on the heads of the two young dragons, as if treating this as play with them.

Moreover, the little beast Keke's speed had reached the extreme; no matter how fiercely the two young dragons attacked with all their might, they could not truly injure it.

On the other side, Xiao Chen saw Feng Yi so easily let Keke regain vitality, and couldn't help clicking his tongue in amazement, muttering to himself: "Even coaxing a child is this practiced—what else in this world don't you understand, Big Brother Feng?"

His thoughts turning, Xiao Chen glanced again at the lively snow-white little beast and said softly: "I never expected Keke's background to be so pitiful—just after birth, her parents were gone."

Huh?

Feng Yi glanced at Xiao Chen, cutting off his words: "Who said Keke's parents aren't around?"

Ah!

The pity that had just risen in Xiao Chen's heart vanished; he instinctively looked at Feng Yi and, somewhat bewildered, asked: "Big Brother Feng, you weren't just comforting Keke, were you?"

Of course.

Feng Yi casually said: "I am comforting Keke, but I'm not lying either—Keke's parents are both mighty beings surpassing the Ancestral God; how could they fall so easily? They merely have more important matters to attend to, so they had no choice but to leave."

"Surpassing the Ancestral God."

Xiao Chen's eyes widened instantly; he instinctively looked at that lively, jumping snow-white little beast, and for a moment he was dazed.

The parents of this carefree little beast are even stronger than he imagined—this is truly a second-generation prodigy!
