btth: receive your own sucide note

His body trembled slightly, and the aura of a two-star Dou Zun flashed fleetingly. He opened his eyes, immediately meeting the relieved and joyful gazes of the father and daughter.

  Chen Guan studied Zi Yan for a moment. Knowing her well, whenever she flashed that foxy smile, she was most likely planning something sinister.

  A slight sense of caution washed over him, and soon, a look of wonder crossed his face.

  While he couldn't determine the current level of Zi Yan's Dragon Emperor bloodline's development, it was undoubtedly at least at the eighth level!

  Given her advantage as a Grand Void Ancient Dragon, there were likely few Dou Zun realm beings who could threaten her.

  "Thank you, uncle."

  Feeling the profound transformation he'd experienced, no less powerful than the physical bodies of some demonic beasts, Chen Guan bowed respectfully in thanks. He wasn't as greedy as Zi Yan, and he'd already gained quite a bit this time.

  "It's just a small favor," Zhu Kun waved his hand dismissively.

  "Chen Guan, let's go back quickly and tell Sister Dieyi and the others this good news!"

  Zi Yan shouted from the sidelines. She wanted to run away after taking the benefits, completely disregarding Zhu Kun's feelings. It was clearly intentional. Perhaps in her eyes, this was a small way to get back at Zhu Kun.

  But it had to be said that it did have some effect.

  Zhu Kun smiled wryly, unable to stop him.

  "Then you can go back first. I'm always here. If you encounter any problems or need my help, feel free to come to me. While I can't leave this dimension, I can still take care of you in the underground magma world. By the way, take this token. With it, those lizardmen outside shouldn't dare to stop you."

  Zhu Kun said confidently, pulling out a crimson token.

  The guardians of the Ancient Emperor's Cave were far superior to the flame lizardmen outside, both in strength and status.

  Chen Guan happily accepted the token and thanked him again.

  He didn't want to lose two puppets again the next time he came, and the lizardmen wouldn't necessarily make the same mistake twice. With the token, things would be much simpler.

  From now on, I've found a safe haven on the Dou Qi Continent. Unless the Dou Emperor ventures out, this place is absolutely safe!

  Without further ado, Chen Guan and Zi Yan returned the same way.

  It's worth noting that while Zi Yan expressed her eagerness to leave, she couldn't help but steal a few glances at Zhu Kun as she departed. This subtle, seemingly covert gesture instantly dispelled Zhu Kun's gloom.

  ...

  After leaving the underground magma world, with the token in hand, the Lizardmen truly refrained from attacking. Even the extremely low-level Lizardmen, with their extremely low IQs, looked fearful, as if Chen Guan emanated something that instilled a deep-seated fear in them.

  It was midnight when they returned to the inner courtyard.

  This forced Chen Guan, who had originally planned to meet his friends, to abandon his plans. He simply said a word to Su Qian and rushed home with Zi Yan.

  Along the way, Zi Yan, like her usual cat-like self, lazed in Chen Guan's arms, even though, with her current strength, she was likely even faster than Chen Guan.

  Furthermore, as Chen Guan diligently tore through space, working like a model worker, he suddenly froze, his steps halting.

  He looked down, and the indistinguishable little dragon figure in his arms was gone. In its place was a charming young woman with a slender figure and stunning beauty. Her

  ill-fitting clothes revealed a large expanse of delicate, white skin, reminiscent of a uniform holding a lute, half-covering her face.

  Although Zi Yan had grown larger many times before, this was the first time Chen Guan had witnessed it firsthand.

  It was so sudden, he was completely unprepared.

  He hadn't noticed anything wrong with the little girl clinging to him, but this sudden enlargement inexplicably struck Chen Guan as particularly sinister, and he couldn't bear to look at it again.

  "Hehehe, Chen Guan, am I big? I can control my size now, but it was easier when I was smaller."

  The ill-chosen dragon words instantly suppressed some of Chen Guan's instincts.

  It was fine when he didn't speak, but as soon as he spoke, the familiar smell came back, and the temptation was swept away...

  "Get down, walk by yourself."

  In order to avoid some embarrassing things from happening, Chen Guan made a serious decision. He would never hold the little dragon like this again in the future. It was too... hot!

  "No, just take me with you."   

  "Are you coming down?"

  "No, then I won't. You can do whatever you want, but you absolutely can't throw me off."

  Zi Yan, like a woman who'd been kept awake for three days, would tear off the tiles from the roof. She wrapped her arms and legs tightly around Chen Guan, twisting and turning, oblivious to the inappropriateness of her appearance.

  After trying for a long time, with no success, Chen Guan gave up and immediately increased the speed of tearing through space.

  He couldn't control this little dragon; only Medusa could devour her!

  Furthermore, he had to make Medusa tell her about the secrets of love and sex, to prevent her from doing anything shocking in the future.

  After two days of non-stop work, they finally had a distant view of the Serpent People's Holy City.

  Upon arriving, Zi Yan, still giggling on the way, didn't even wait for Chen Guan's warning before shrinking.

  Clearly, she was quite intimidated by Queen Medusa.

  This had nothing to do with strength.

  "Damn Chen Guan, don't tell Sister Dieyi about this!"

  Zi Yan warned, gritting her teeth, seeming to have some self-awareness of her actions.

  Chen Guan chuckled. "You're scared now. What were you doing before?"

  Just as he was about to take the opportunity to strike back, a graceful figure suddenly appeared from above the Holy City, gliding through the air and approaching in the blink of an eye.

  "Sister Dieyi!"

  Zi Yan called out, sounding as if

  she were trying to cover up something. Medusa gave her a strange look, then fixed her gaze on Chen Guan.

  "What happened on the way?"

  "Nothing. It was quiet, not even the wind." Zi Yan interrupted, noticing Medusa's increasingly strange gaze, and quickly found an excuse to slip away. "I'm going to see Tang Xi and Tang Zi. I assigned them a mission before I left."

  Medusa didn't stop him, her gaze fixed on Chen Guan.

  This matter certainly couldn't be concealed for long, and Chen Guan didn't really want to cover up for the little dragon man; that would seem sinister.

  He immediately recounted Zi Yan's ability to grow and shrink at will,

  but he also selectively concealed some details about the journey.

  Medusa nodded calmly after hearing the story, but it was unclear whether she believed it or not.

  "Zi Yan doesn't have much common sense for adults yet. You should talk to her more and try to keep her from doing anything stupid. Where's Qing Yan?"

  "She's with Yao Ye. Every day, there are always people waiting to play with her. I don't need to worry about her at all. She's also obedient and doesn't cry or make a fuss. She's happy no matter who takes care of her."

  Queen Medusa nodded in response, her smile both helpless and proud.

  After becoming a mother, Chen Guan had become increasingly aware of her softer side.

  Just as Chen Guan was still sighing, Medusa changed the subject.

  "I'll keep an eye on Zi Yan's affairs. You'd better be more self-disciplined as well. It's okay for others, but if you, Zi Yan..." She

  didn't finish her words, but the warning was already strong.

  Although Zi Yan called her sister, she often treated her like a daughter. It was hard to imagine how awkward it would be if they were equals.

  Therefore, Medusa must be the most difficult obstacle between Chen Guan and Zi Yan.

  Fortunately, Chen Guan had no such thoughts.

  "That's the best. By the way, I received a letter from Elder Mu Gu last night."
