Chapter 1700: Meeting Li Hongyou Again
Li Luo recognized the Pharmacist Jade Dragon, and the latter joyfully cried, "Li Luo!"
The owner of that familiar voice was none other than Li Hongyou. Li Luo curiously sized her up. They hadn't seen each other for six years, and her body had clearly undergone a heaven-shaking metamorphosis in their time apart.
She had not only reached the King Stage, but looking at her current form, the vigorous aura she was emanating, and the medicinal fragrance that followed her, it was clear she had turned into a real dragon. This transformation was similar to the Dragon Blood Atavism Art, which traced one's bloodline to its source and reconstructed one's body, truly transforming them into a dragon. It was clear that Li Hongyou had obtained tremendous opportunities within the Dragon Race.
As Li Luo grinned happily, he appeared before her head and couldn't stop himself from reaching for her jade-like horns. When Lin Miao saw this, he hurriedly attempted to stop him. As a resident of the Mythical Spirit Divine Continent, he was well aware of the habits of the Dragon Race, and the horns were completely off limits. However, before he spoke, the Pharmacist Jade Dragon lowered her head slightly, placing her horn against Li Luo's palm. He then rubbed it affectionately.
"Senior Hongyou, have you truly turned into a Pharmacist Jade Dragon?" Li Luo asked curiously as he felt the icy and hard horns.
"This is the result of a secret art. I've spent a lot of time immersed in the medicinal pools of the Dragon Race, so my bloodline has changed. As a result, I can switch between human form and dragon form at any time. That said, my human form has not reached the King Stage and thus I won't transform into it," Li Hongyou explained.
This exchange had taught Li Luo that she was only a Single Crowned King in her dragon form. If she swapped to her human form, her strength would drop. Regardless, Li Hongyou had experienced a huge increase in strength, and it looked like coming to the Dragon Race was the right choice, so Li Luo was happy for her. The two conversed happily for a bit, catching up on what they had done while they were apart.
However, these happy times did not last forever as some angry roars suddenly erupted. Several dragons shot out of the ancient mountains, shooting furious glares at Li Luo, who was still touching Li Hongyou's horns.
"Human, move your filthy hands away. The horns of the Dragon Race's Priestess are not for you to defile!" one of the experts of the Dragon Race roared.
Li Luo paused for a moment before retracting his hand awkwardly. He seemed to have underestimated Li Hongyou's position. Looking at how violently their experts had reacted, it was clear that simply touching a dragon's horns was a blasphemous crime.
