Scales black as night, perfect, glistening under the light of the sky.
Eyes purple like a strange and shining starry sea, an enormous body and wings capable of enveloping a small village.
Sapphire had lost count of how many tis she had heard that description in the many scrolls she read when she still lived in the imperial palace.
An ancient beast of darkness, almost as old as the empire her father ruled. One that, in the past, burned this empire, devouring many of its emperors.
That... couldn't be her, right?
Yes... it must be just another beast of the sa kind, nothing special!
As Sapphire thought about it, the beast moved, raising her enormous head.
Imdiately, her piercing purple eyes focused on Sapphire as she sniffed the air.
That girl had a sll of blood not uncommon to Khaedryss.
Sapphire imdiately took a step back, feeling Qingyi's hands wrap around her hips.
"What's wrong? Are you afraid of Khaedryss? She doesn't bite, don't worry, hahaha," Qingyi laughed.
Well, Khaedryss did indeed bite. But even though she was unable to speak, she was still much more intelligent than most humans.
She knew she shouldn't hurt Qingyi's wives, and in fact, she even had a protective instinct towards them.
"D-Do you know what kind of beast this is?" Sapphire asked, unable to hide her shock.
"Yes, I know. And it's okay, because she's my Khaedryss," Qingyi said, stroking Sapphire's hair.
It didn't matter what those in this world thought of her, nor how many cities she burned, nor how many emperors she devoured.
She was his Khaedryss and Elize's little purple one.
Sapphire could only freeze, her head dropping to the floor.
'His Khaedryss... she repeated ntally.
What kind of man dared to claim ownership of a beast like this? No... what kind of man was this she had just gotten involved with?
"Let's eat first, then I'll take you to have a look at Khaedryss." Qingyi smiled and, without further ado, began to introduce his two new wives.
Fortunately, with Celestia there, it wasn't much work for him, and he soon locked himself in one of the many cultivation rooms in the mind world.
His eyes imdiately focused on his system screen.
[Na: Long Qingyi
Age: 22

Constitution: Primordial Dragon Body (Transcendental grade, 10T lust points to upgrade.)
Lust points: 32.6T]
He certainly made good use of those three. With so many lust points, one could only imagine how powerful he would beco.
His fingers flowed to his spiritual roots first.
As his wealth increased, the capacity to keep the world of the mind supplied also increased.
Currently, its arrays were working at full strength, at a level where the density of Qi was high, even for his immortal-grade spiritual roots.
With a slight hesitation, he clicked to improve them, feeling the initial shock of pain run through his veins.
[Starting spiritual root enhancent.]
Qingyi breathed slowly, controlling his Qi flow.
The pain of having every vein, every ridian, every inch of his dantian broken and rebuilt, was barely able to elicit a slight grunt
from him.
Still, his fingers trembled as he raised his hand, bringing it to the system screen, and then clicking to also improve his constitution and
lineage.
The pain multiplied tenfold in a single mont. Qingyi's vision darkened before suddenly lighting up even more brightly, his brain clearer than ever and his muscles, destroyed and torn, burning with
power.
In just a mont, the air around him heated up, enough to be able to lt steel like butter, even the black stones beginning to suffer. His skin cracked, expanding and retracting painfully, the reddish flesh visible, the cracks already soaking him in blood.
In his dantian and eyes, the strands of draconic Qi began to multiply,
needing only a mont to break through ten thousand, continuing to increase in quantity rapidly.
Qingyi just gritted his teeth, holding on tightly as ti passed.
Only after nearly fifteen minutes was he finally able to let a relieved
sigh escape his lips.
[Spiritual Root improved! Immortal grade -> Ancestral grade]
[Bloodline improved! Blood of the Corruption Dragon God (Transcendental grade) -> Blood of the Corruption Dragon God
(Immortal grade)]
[Constitution improved! Primordial Dragon Body (Transcendental grade)-> Primordial Dragon Body (Immortal grade)]
[Bloodline skill "Black Dragon Scales" improved! dium level -> High
level]
A flurry of system notifications arrived for Qingyi, followed by a slight shockwave that engulfed the entire room around him.
He paused for a brief mont, looked at those notifications, and then smiled, calling upon his black dragon scales.
Imdiately, he felt his body beco heavier, but not in a way that made it harder to move.
The scales, once so thin that they seed like a second skin, were
now thick and powerful, clinging to his entire body like steel armor.
On his head, the small horns he had before had grown, and on his back, small trunks had appeared, almost like the base for wings to
erge.
Even his claws had changed, much longer and sharper than before. Qingyi couldn't help but exhale in excitent.
It had been a long ti since his black dragon scales had been upgraded, and many tis he had encountered enemies powerful enough to damage them.
Although he rarely used them in combat, they were still important,
especially for defending against sneak attacks and, of course, suicidal
enemies.
With the current power of his black scales, he had no doubt that he would be able to survive a nuclear bomb.
"Not that there are many of those in this world, hahaha," Qingyi laughed before getting up and following his wives.
