Chapter 97: The Might of the Divine Dragon
A night passed without incident; the team did not encounter any attacks from thieves or demon beasts, and even the wager between Daji and Qin Jun was forgotten by everyone. To them, it seemed like just a game between the couple. Even if Qin Jun lost, Daji wouldn’t really do anything to him.
The team continued on its journey. Ahead lay the boundaries of the Canglan Kingdom, and beyond that, the Nanzhuo Dynasty.
In the early morning, as Qin Jun walked with the team, he asked Jia Xun, who was following next to him, "I heard the Canglan Kingdom recently suffered a great loss; do you think they might block or attack us?"
After pondering for a moment, Jia Xun replied hesitantly, "They probably won’t do that. If they did, it would mean that when teams from the Canglan Kingdom pass through the Qianyue Kingdom in the future, they’d be treated the same way. The Emperor Canglan isn’t foolish enough to allow that. Of course, I can’t rule out the possibility that some officials or cultivators may seek revenge for their nation."

Just then, a high-pitched dragon’s roar suddenly pierced the sky, carrying a power that commanded respect from all creatures great and small.
Everyone looked up to see, and their mouths fell open in shock and disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost.
Even Qin Jun was gaping. Above in the clouds, there was a white dragon circling gracefully, its majestic form reflecting a metallic sheen in the sunlight. It had the head of a camel, the horns of a deer, the eyes of a rabbit, the ears of a cow, the neck of a snake, the belly of a murex, the scales of a carp, the claws of an eagle, and the paws of a tiger. From time to time, its roars sent ripples through the firmament.
"A true dragon... this is not something those fat western dragons or giant lizards can compare to..."
