"The 'No Hero' tipped the streamer a Super Big Lobster*1 with the message: 'Calling the streamer!'"
"The 'Speedy Snail' tipped the streamer... with the message: 'Don't bully Dan Zong!'"
"'Graceful Young Man' tipped the streamer..."
A group of viewers were anxiously pacing.
They were all checking if their wallets could afford another tip.
Meanwhile, on the live stream screen—
Facing Ao Bai, the White Dragon's anger, the Seven-Colored Egg calmly and confusedly retorted:
"Have you been watching too many 'Dragon Ao Tian' face-slapping novels?"
"What do you mean by oppression and coercion? Do I look like I'm suffering?"
"And you, do you really think you can go against the entire Underworld?"
You?
It wasn't that it looked down on him, but this guy was probably not as powerful as its own master.
Its master was already at the peak of the Ghost King realm, and with a little more effort, would reach the Nether Envoy realm.
Moreover, the Underworld had Lord Yama.
It had a pretty strong backing too.
Thinking of this, the Seven-Colored Egg felt even more confident.
It crossed its front paws, looking utterly unfazed.
However, Ao Bai, the White Dragon, misunderstood. "You don't need to worry about me. It's true that I alone cannot go against the entire Underworld..."
"But, we have the entire Dragon Clan behind us!"
"The Dragon Clan is not to be trifled with. You absolutely don't need to be afraid of those guys!"
Allowing them to be treated as pets was simply an insult to them!
This was no longer just about the Seven-Colored Egg, but about the dignity of the entire Dragon Clan!
Seven-Colored Egg: "Who's worried about you? My master is very good and doesn't need your help."
"Is it that they won't let you speak? Have they cast some kind of spell on you?"
Ao Bai leaned closer. "Don't worry, we will definitely help you!"
"What do you mean 'we'?"
The Seven-Colored Egg flicked away the claw Ao Bai extended to examine it.
"I hatched by my master's side, not in your Dragon Clan."
As if your Dragon Clan had done some great deed.
It was born in the Underworld, grew up in the Underworld, so why should it fear the Underworld?
And asking the Dragon Clan to help fight the Underworld?
Strange!
It had originally thought that if the other party came, it could go to the Dragon Palace with its master and see it.
Whether it was truly as magnificent and grand as they said.
It hadn't expected it to turn out like this.
Not only did she not listen to it, but she also kept slandering its master.
Annoying. (〝▼_▼)
"I don't have any spells on me. It's you who has delusional paranoia."
The Seven-Colored Egg flicked its tail. "Xu Nan, Machine Ball, let's go."
They still had missions to do.
They didn't have time to chat nonsense with this guy.
Xu Nan and Machine Ball followed behind the Seven-Colored Egg, casually keeping an eye on Ao Bai's direction.
Ready to welcome a fight at any moment.
They had overheard the conversation between Lord Yama and Captain Xu Nan/Master that day.
Now, they were just afraid that the other party would lose their temper and try to snatch the Seven-Colored Egg away.
"???"
Ao Bai, the White Dragon, was stunned. She hadn't expected them to just turn and leave.
She quickly chased after them. "Why are you running?"
"What else? Listen to your nonsensical ramblings?"
The Seven-Colored Egg said without looking back, "I still have missions to do. Don't waste our time."
Machine Ball, following behind, nodded. "Exactly, exactly!"
Xu Nan watched them, remaining silent.
Although he felt that the conversation between the Seven-Colored Egg and Ao Bai was always on different wavelengths.
There seemed to be some information gap.
But the other party's attitude was indeed not good.
Even if they were the hosts, they didn't need to be polite.
Besides, the Seven-Colored Egg was the one directly involved in this matter, and everything depended on its thoughts.
It wasn't good for outsiders to interfere too much.
...
"You still have missions? The Underworld is making you work for them?!"
Ao Bai was again shocked and angered. "Isn't this just bullying you because you're newly hatched and easily deceived?!"
Their Dragon Clan was so powerful, so proud.
When had they ever been pets or slave laborers for other races?!
Isn't this oppression?!
"Oh, aren't you annoying!"
The Seven-Colored Egg, bothered by the noise, suddenly turned to face Ao Bai.
Its body shimmered with iridescent light, surrounded by swirling mist.
In the next moment, it transformed into a ten-meter-long Azure Dragon. As it opened its mouth, white mist spewed forth.
It directly confronted Ao Bai, its voice thundering like thunder:
"Don't think I'm easy to talk to just because I'm small!"
"My master is very good! My master is very good! Do you hear me clearly!"
The Seven-Colored Egg was very angry.
It was the first time it had been this angry since it gained consciousness.
After hatching and receiving its inheritance, when it knew it was a dragon.
It had indeed become a little arrogant.
But it only showed off in front of other pets and ghosts.
It had never denied its master's existence, nor did it feel its master was unworthy.
Nor had it ever been disrespectful to its master.
But this White Dragon?
Claiming to be its kin, yet slandering its master with every word.
If it had truly been oppressed or bullied, it might have been touched by Ao Bai's intervention.
Touched by the entire Dragon Clan's willingness to stand behind it.
But that was not the case.
She didn't even know its master, nor had she understood its master, yet she spoke like this.
It was truly angered!
"Go wherever you want, don't bother me!"
Machine Ball: "Exactly, exactly! Master is very good, you go away."
"?"
Looking at the Seven-Colored Egg and its companions flying away rapidly, Ao Bai's face showed confusion.
Had it been brainwashed?
Or had she truly misunderstood?
But since ancient times, the existence of dragons had been a rare treasure.
Even as an egg, it had infinite uses.
After hatching, its entire body was a treasure.
The legend of becoming immortal by eating dragon meat was not just a rumor.
This was because dragons contained too much spiritual energy.
The world, besides worshipping dragons, also had a perverse fanaticism towards them.
She had seen in the Dragon Palace's archives those dragons that were left behind, weaker ones, or those who got lost when they were young.
They were either oppressed, or gnawed upon and dismembered.
Those who managed to return alive were few and far between.
The reason her kin discovered them was due to the residual images brought back by dragon souls.
Some even had their dragon souls suppressed, unable to return.
Many years later, they were accidentally discovered by clan elders traveling outside.
Even when she was sent to pick up the dragon treasure this time, she brought many precious treasures.
She also had a protective seal left by the clan elders on her.
This was why she became so agitated upon hearing the word 'pet'.
...
The Dragon Clan had always valued bloodlines.
Now that pure-blooded dragons were becoming increasingly rare, every newborn dragon treasure was highly valued.
They sent the young her for a few reasons: first, because she and the dragon treasure were similar in age, making communication easier.
Second, for experience.
Third, because she was young, even if she caused trouble here, it would be considered a matter between juniors.
The repercussions would not be too great.
After a moment of thought, Ao Bai, the White Dragon, decided to maintain a certain distance.
She would follow from afar and assess the situation.
