Choked—!

The special steel locks that had restrained the Half-dragon for hundreds of years were instantly sliced in half!

"Roar—!!"

The Half-dragon let out an excited roar, rolling excitedly in the water, running back and forth wildly in the cave, its eyes continuing to shed tears uncontrollably.

Finally free!

Finally free at last!!

No longer confined to this dark, sunless place!!

After a while.

The Half-dragon's emotions settled down a bit, and it slowly swam towards Qin Feng, its massive head gently bowing to express gratitude.

"How about it, have you thought it through?"

Qin Feng said.

The Half-dragon no longer hesitated, nodding its head immediately, and bowed even lower lastly as a sign of obedience!

Before, it did not want to.

It did not want to be a slave to humans.

Now.

It could not see any intention from Qin Feng of treating it like a slave.

Instead, without even waiting for it to decide, he shattered the chains that had trapped it for centuries.

With such a debt of gratitude, such an act was worth it.

So.

It decided to follow Qin Feng!!

"Very good."

Qin Feng nodded, then continued, "From now on, you'll cultivate on Longshan, refine the Blood Bodhi I've given you before, and help me protect this Longshan!"

Upon hearing this, the Half-dragon's expression froze!

It widened its eyes, looked at the cave entrance outside, then turned its head back to Qin Feng, as if questioning, if it could leave this place.

Qin Feng understood its intentions, smiled, and said: "Of course, you can go to any corner of Longshan, but it's best not to leave Longshan and go outside, otherwise if you are discovered, you will be captured and eaten as a medicine."

The Half-dragon heard this and was uncontrollably excited.

It slowly walked to the cave entrance of the pool, cautiously sticking its head out, and after making sure it could leave, it quickly ran away from there, leaving behind excited teardrops.

The cave became quiet.

Qin Feng left some gemstones for the Half-dragon to continue its cultivation there, then returned to Xiao Lian's side, saying: "Let's also head out!"

The two left the cave. This is а sаmplе frоm Мy Virtuаl Librаry Еmpirе. Rеаd thе rеst оn

From a distance, they could see the Half-dragon running wildly in the mountains without any restraints, as if it had gone mad from confinement.

After a while.

It returned to the cave entrance and once again prostrated itself in front of Qin Feng, nodding repeatedly to show its gratitude.

Qin Feng said: "You stay here and cultivate! When you turn into a Jiao Dragon, I will think of a way to allow you to slowly grow into a True Dragon!"

With that.

He and Xiao Lian left the place.

The Half-dragon remained prostrate, unwilling to raise its head until they disappeared from sight.

On the way back to Lake City.

Xiao Lian at this moment was incredibly shocked by everything she had seen earlier, and turned her head to ask Qin Feng: "Does... does a dragon really exist in this world?"

"I don't know."

Qin Feng shook his head and said, "But I hope so."

"Why?" Xiao Lian asked.

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Qin Feng replied: "If there is, then one day it will surely become a dragon, and then wouldn't I have made a profit?"

...

Lake City, Emperor Villa.

Ever since Xu Yunxiao acknowledged that night that Qin Feng was the owner of Emperor Villa, it has no longer been a secret.

Since the beginning of the year, people have been continuously sending gifts to Emperor Villa.

For example.

Members of the Invincible Club like Feng Guoqiang, Pang Dahai, and the like, as well as Lake City's former three major families, have been incessantly coming and going.

However, none of them have entered through the main gate.

They just leave their gifts with Aunt Li at the entrance and depart.

After all, without Qin Feng's invitation, no one dares to enter on their own.

Aside from these Lake City big shots.

There's an abundance of stunning beauties!

Like Zheng Weiwei from Rainbow Cosmetics Company, Dong Haimei, Wei Yunxiang, Shen Lu, Li Jie, the Holy Doctor's granddaughter Su Ruolan, and so on, each with bewitching beauty that outshines the moon and shames the flowers.

At Villa No.1, just below Emperor Villa.

Qin Feng's Mother-in-law Li Cuilan often sees people going to deliver gifts to the owner of Emperor Villa at the gate, and couldn't help but mutter to herself: "Who on earth lives in Emperor Villa? Why do they have such a huge clout..."

Last time Qin Feng had already proved it was him.

But Li Cuilan still didn't believe it.

Especially since the next day Xu Yunxiao left home to run away, Li Cuilan felt even more that it was because Qin Feng took Xu Yunxiao into the manor without permission, upsetting its owner, and thus she fled abroad "to take refuge." She also thought that the reason for Qin Feng's absence from home was his reluctance to return.

At this moment.

She saw Lin Xue'er also heading towards Emperor Villa.

From a distance, she greeted Li Cuilan: "Hello, Auntie."

"Ah, it's Xue'er, you haven't visited us for a while, why not come in for a while?" Li Cuilan said with a smile.

"No, I have other matters to attend to," Lin Xue'er replied.

Li Cuilan couldn't help but ask: "Xue'er, I've noticed you going to Emperor Villa every other day. Who exactly lives there?"

"Hehe, a super handsome guy!" Lin Xue'er laughed and continued walking upward.

Li Cuilan's eyes brightened at her reply, muttering to herself, "No wonder, over the years, so many beautiful women in Lake City have been flocking to Emperor Villa, it turns out they are all eyeing the position of the manor owner's wife!"

"Such a pity, it would be great if Yunxiao was here, in terms of looks and abilities, Yunxiao is not inferior to them, she might catch the manor owner's eye!"

"Once he takes notice, won't I be living there as well?"

"..."

Thinking about it, Li Cuilan grew very angry again, "It's all that damned Qin Feng's fault, otherwise Yunxiao wouldn't have left..."

While she was complaining.

At this time, she saw Qin Feng approaching.

"Hey!"

An annoyed Li Cuilan called out to him, "Qin Feng, I warn you, with my daughter not around, you can forget about stepping through this doorway! It's because of your recklessness that day that you angered the owner of Emperor Villa and scared my daughter so much that she fled abroad!"

Qin Feng just glanced at her from afar without responding and continued his way back to Emperor Villa.

Although Emperor Villa and Villa No.1 are not too far from each other, they are not on the same path; Emperor Villa has its own private road up the mountain.

Li Cuilan noticed Qin Feng walking on the private road, and seeing that he was carrying two boxes of tea leaves, she thought he was probably making an apology to Emperor Villa. She called out to him from a distance, "Sending such a cheap gift won't please anyone, you're humiliating our family! Please don't claim to be from the Xu family in the future!"

With that, she closed the front door in frustration.

Qin Feng was speechless.

He wasn't there to give gifts.

The tea leaves he was holding, gifts from Liang Jiuxiang and Gu Yuanshan, were worth a Mercedes-Benz S450 per ounce. She actually called them worthless tea leaves, unbelievable!

He didn't bother to pay her any mind.

Qin Feng headed straight to Emperor Villa.

At the front gate.

Lin Xue'er asked Aunt Li once again, only to receive the same reply as before. Feeling somewhat dejected, she said: "Aunt Li, so he still didn't say when he would be back?"

"I'm truly sorry, the young master didn't say."

Aunt Li apologized.

Lin Xue'er sighed and coughed a couple of times, her complexion looking not so well.

At that moment.

She turned around and was suddenly stunned to see Qin Feng at the entrance.

"What are you doing here?"

Qin Feng asked with puzzlement.
