Chapter 459: Chapter 458 The Poison Fire Flying Dragon and the Strange Woman

Following Qiuqiu’s flight trajectory, the people present turned their gaze toward the balcony of the small building behind them.

In the dark night, the first thing that caught their eyes was a pure white deer, its body surrounded by a swirling starshine.

Not far from it seemed to be a figure, only obscured due to the destruction of the wiring here, making it hard to see clearly.

“Wu~”

Qiuqiu, flapping its fire dragon wings, gently landed beside the person, causing a flurry of turbulence.

With the light from Qiuqiu’s flames, Mayor Han Jiugong barely made out Shao Zifeng standing there in a sleep robe.

His expression was complex, a mix of relief and worry.

Finally, Mayor Han Jiugong, with a straight face, yelled at Shao Zifeng, “What are you doing here? Hurry and go.”

Shao Zifeng barely held down his sleep robe that Qiuqiu had blown up, and said with a chuckle, “I was waiting for your care. If something happened to you, that’d be a huge loss for me.”

“You little rascal!”

Mayor Han Jiugong cursed with a laugh, pointing at Shao Zifeng, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Long Zhan stood by, looking at Qiuqiu on the balcony, his tightly drawn face relaxing slightly.

As for the young mistress, her gaze hadn’t strayed from Qiuqiu since it appeared.

Crash!

At that moment, a green dragon burning with green flames crawled out from beneath the bricks and tiles.

It shook off the rubble from its body, its eerie green vertical pupils fixed intently on Qiuqiu, muscles tensed and wings unfurled, ready to counterattack the one who had ambushed it.

The young mistress noticed its movement, her gaze indifferent as she looked at it and lightly parted her cherry lips, “Xiao Du, no.”

“Wu–kaka.”

The green dragon looked at the woman, lowering its big head dejectedly.

Its voice was strange, seemingly due to its throat being injured in the previous attack.

“Mayor Han!”

Then came an exclamation. Shao Zifeng focused his eyes to see that Mayor Han Jiugong, who had just been full of life, was now lying in Long Zhan’s arms with his eyes closed tightly, gritting his teeth and shaking continuously.

Looking further, he then noticed that behind the Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceros there were a hundred or so members of the Abnormal Administration Bureau lying in disorder, their bodies burning with spots of green flames, twitching slightly–if one didn’t look closely, they might think they were dead.

He quickly looked toward the woman, only to see her giving him a radiant smile.

“Little deer, save people.”

“Yo~”

The little deer nodded lightly, leaping down from the second-floor balcony.

It first approached the green flames and sniffed, its lively starlit eyes showing a hint of disdain. Then, the starshine particles on the little deer became active, the light in its eyes flowing. Imaginary white flowers bloomed on its antlers, and a heart-refreshing fragrance rapidly filled the courtyard.

Aromatic Healing was the most gentle of all healing abilities, and soon after smelling the fragrance, the pained expressions of the twitching members of the Abnormal Administration Bureau began to ease.

Seeing this, Long Zhan’s anxious heart finally settled.

He looked at Shao Zifeng, eyes full of gratitude.

Shao Zifeng nodded at Long Zhan and, seeing the situation stabilize somewhat, he relaxed considerably. Then he turned his gaze toward the woman standing amidst the ruins.

This woman was strange.

Ever since his arrival, besides stopping her pet, she had made no other moves. She was indifferent even to the deer rescuing the members of the Abnormal Administration Bureau, focusing instead on giving Qiuqiu a loving gaze.

Loving gaze!

Hisss-

Shao Zifeng was stunned by the word that popped into his mind.

Could it be that someone other than him could appreciate Qiuqiu’s beauty?

Cough cough, just kidding.

Dragons, as symbols of power, have always been revered for their majestic appearance.

These people either longed for or lusted after them.

But this woman’s gaze was quite odd; she looked at Qiuqiu as if she were looking at her own lover.

“Woo~”

While Shao Zifeng was lost in thought, Qiuqiu suddenly let out a noise at his side.

Shao Zifeng looked at it and saw Qiuqiu give the green dragon a glance with its golden-red pupils, then lower its head and coo into Shao Zifeng’s ear with a soft, secretive whimper, as if sharing gossip with him.

“Woo woo woo-”

The voice of a dragon clan creature, no matter how soft, is not that soft; the green dragon’s slit pupils constricted, its emotions turning agitated.

Understanding Qiuqiu’s meaning, Shao Zifeng burst out laughing. He reached out to stroke Qiuqiu’s cheek, “Of course it’s ugly; after all, Qiuqiu is the prettiest dragon.”

“Woo woo~”

Upon hearing this, Qiuqiu immediately became happy, rubbing its large head back and forth in Shao Zifeng’s arms, giving the green giant dragon a sidelong, roguish look with its eyes and snorting haughtily through its nostrils.

The green giant dragon was completely enraged now, its pupils flickering with a ferocious light.

“Xiao Du!” The woman’s look carried a warning.

The green giant dragon’s body stiffened, its expression crestfallen as it hung its head.

Glancing at the woman, Shao Zifeng saw she was still looking at Qiuqiu and showed no intention of taking action, so he was actually only too happy to relax.

Bin City was not like Su City, which was isolated and without support; not to mention being surrounded by a cluster of cities, it also boasted several universities.

As long as he could delay a little longer, support would arrive, and then it wouldn’t be his problem anymore.

Thinking this, Shao Zifeng looked towards the green giant dragon, but the corner of his eye remained wary of the woman.

Saying the dragon was ugly wasn’t just flattery for Qiuqiu; this dragon was genuinely unattractive.

From its build, it was somewhat bigger than Qiuqiu, its body covered in dark green scales, with irregular lumps scattered between the scales that, if one didn’t consider the overall shape and only looked at a certain area, might be mistaken for bumps on a mutant toad.

Besides this, compared to Qiuqiu, its head was significantly flatter, with dirty, dangling flesh-whiskers hanging from the corners of its mouth to its neck, resembling a series of green meaty worms.

The most glaring feature was its chin sac, extending all the way to the throat. Perhaps because it was angry, its sac would inflate from time to time, like a frog.

But its dragon wings were real, with broken, tattered membrane stretched between bones of the wings, making one wonder if it really could fly.

In the periphery, blue light spots rotated, and a pale blue light screen slowly opened up.
