Chapter 1587: Encounter
Li Yao didn’t use any other techniques; instead, he directly used "Lotus Blooms with Every Step," offsetting the falling damage effortlessly as he moved gracefully like he was strolling through a garden.
Tong Tong, about to land, immediately cast a totem. Her descending body suddenly hovered less than a yard above the ground. Then, the totem disappeared, and Tong Tong landed steadily.
The Green Dragon Princess, however, was much more carefree. She transformed into her humanoid form and teleported right beside the three of them.
Li Yao’s expression changed: "Princess, it’s fine for you to transport us here, but why are you risking yourself to join us in the adventure?"
"As a member of the Guardian Clan, why should I fear danger? If I were afraid of death, I could just apply to protect the Sacred Land or the Dragon Sleep Temple. Those places are safer than anywhere else," the Green Dragon Princess said.
Li Yao chuckled. Is the Dragon Sleep Temple truly absolutely safe? It’s not necessarily so. In the past, two major incidents happened there.
One was a major internal rebellion, and the other was an invasion by external enemies that caused massive losses to the Dragon Clan. Of course, Li Yao wouldn’t voice these thoughts out loud.
Still, the Green Dragon Princess’s courage was commendable. In this divine realm, being a King or leader was not just a matter of high status—it also came with extreme danger.
During major battles, the highest leaders were always at the forefront, leading by example. And Princes and Princesses specifically sought out danger to resolve it. It was starkly different from the ancient Kings and Princes in real-world history.
"I didn’t expect that, under these conditions, even the steam is impacting my Divine Eye’s effectiveness." After focusing on the Molten Mountain Dragon, Li Yao noticed that the range and clarity of his Divine Eye’s effects had significantly decreased.
