“Ancestor?”
“Ancestor—”
“Do you like osmanthus cakes?”
The silver-haired young dragon circled around the ancestor’s statue, asking curiously.
Because the ancestor’s statue had manifested earlier and saved her, Xia Yi suddenly felt much closer to the ancestor.
Since the ancestor could manifest, surely he would express his favorite food, right?
However, no matter how long Xia Yi asked, the ancestor’s statue showed no reaction.
“Ancestor, you don’t like osmanthus cakes?” Xia Yi was puzzled. “That’s impossible. Ancestor is a good person, and good people should like osmanthus cakes!”
Unfortunately, the ancestor’s statue still did not respond.
“You like osmanthus cakes? Then you must like… Swiss rolls, right!” Xia Yi made another guess.
Alas, after waiting for a long time, the ancestor remained motionless.
This left Xia Yi in a dilemma.
What offering should she choose…
“Princess, it’s ready.”
Sera walked back into the temple.
Earlier, she had mentioned that in the ancestor’s temple, there was a special space magic array left by the former Dragon King, which could transport them out of the Great Sea of Trees.
Perhaps this was the only way to leave after entering the Great Sea of Trees.
Maybe this was deliberately left by the Dragon King of the Ancient Era for his future descendants.
“The magic array is ready. We can leave at any time,” Sera said.
“Mm, let’s go back. I’m hungry and want to eat something!”
Xia Yi turned around and bid farewell to the ancestor’s statue.
“Ancestor, I’ll be leaving for now. When I come back next time, about the offering… let’s go with osmanthus cakes, how about that?”
After waiting a while, there was no answer.
“Well, since Ancestor has defaulted, it’s happily decided. Next time, I’ll bring this many osmanthus cakes—”
Xia Yi spread her arms wide, gesturing grandly.
“By then, I’ll offer them all to you, so you can eat until you’re full!”
Even Sera found it a bit strange. Why was Her Highness so obsessed with osmanthus cakes to this extent?
“Goodbye, Ancestor!”
After waving at the ancestor’s statue, Xia Yi left the temple’s interior with Sera and arrived at the magic array.
Sera began chanting the spell in Dragon Language, releasing the magic onto the formation, activating the Dragon Language on it. After steadily finishing the chant, a spatial rift opened on the magic array.
Sera reached out her hand to Xia Yi. “Please hold my hand tightly and don’t let go.”
“Okay.”
Xia Yi nodded, took Sera’s warm hand, and together they stepped into the spatial rift.
Immediately…
The world spun.
She felt like she had motion sickness, the journey was extremely bumpy.
“We’re outside the Great Sea of Trees now, Princess,” Sera reminded.
“It’s normal sunlight!”
Xia Yi looked back at the Great Sea of Trees, recalling the journey. It was truly full of danger.
The silver-haired loli was now covered in dust and dirt, and even the white stockings on her legs had several holes due to the fierce battles.
But still…
Brave Silver Dragon, fearless in the face of difficulty!
She had overcome the challenges and discovered all the secrets of the Great Sea of Trees, returning alive to the outside world.
Indeed, I am the bravest adventurer!
…
Xia Yi and Sera didn’t head straight back to the Northern Capital but returned to Corolle to rest at the Cavendish Manor.
Because she had consumed too much in the Great Sea of Trees and had not replenished with food, she was starving. She directly transformed into a hungry dragon and began devouring, determined to make up for the lost nutrients.
“Princess, it’s wonderful that you and Sera returned alive together!”
At the banquet celebrating Xia Yi and Sera’s return, Lucius was quite shocked and also greatly admired them.
“For so many years, I’ve never heard of anyone entering the Great Sea of Trees and coming out alive. Princess, you and Sera have made history!”
“Although that’s true, Lucius, the interior of the Great Sea of Trees is still too dangerous. It’s not as simple as the outside world thinks…”
Xia Yi pondered for a moment.
The matter of the Legendary Beast could not be revealed, otherwise it would cause great panic in the Dragon Kingdom.
She exchanged a glance with Sera, and with just a look, they tacitly agreed.
Obviously, Sera also believed it was better not to say everything.
“The Great Sea of Trees is indeed a forbidden zone for life. It was intentionally created by the Dragon King in the Ancient Era to prevent anyone from entering,” Xia Yi explained. “Therefore, once you enter the Great Sea of Trees, it’s impossible to come out alive.”
“Is that so?”
“Mm, only dragons with royal blood have a chance to come out… If I didn’t possess royal blood, I might have also been lost forever like the dragons of the past… In any case, for safety reasons, we must not let our people enter the Great Sea of Trees again.”
Lucius always felt that the Princess was definitely hiding something… But it didn’t matter, it wasn’t his place to probe.
In any case, as long as the Princess and his daughter returned alive, that was enough.
“Understood, Princess. Please rest assured. Now that I’m the mayor of Corolle, I will make arrangements for the future.”
“Lucius, how has Corolle been recently?”
“Everything is developing in a good direction…”
Lucius happily reported his work results and the situation in Corolle.
…
Xia Yi’s mission was completed, and this trip to the southern border should come to an end.
As the Silver Dragon Princess, she delivered another speech and held a farewell party.
The people of Corolle were very reluctant to see her leave.
Xia Yi had now become a national idol. Everywhere, there were promotional posters of her. Some people even made merchandise of her, and some came to interview her, intending to write her biography.
This was firmly rejected by Xia Yi. On the surface, she said that a living Dragon King could not have a biography written… Moreover, she was only a princess now and could not break the rules. But in reality…
The things that happened in the Dragon Palace, those were absolutely not to be written about.
If the people of Corolle knew, her dignified image would collapse.
Dammit!
Apart from the people of Corolle, those who had fought alongside Xia Yi were also reluctant to see her leave.
But there are no eternal banquets in the world. Xia Yi could not stay here forever. She still bid farewell to Jiye, Chen Tie, Jin, Thousand Kills… and all her companions, leaving this place and embarking back to the Northern Capital.
…
Dragon Kingdom, Northern Capital.
“Finally… I’m back!”
Xia Yi looked at the Dragon Palace in front of her, feeling a thousand emotions. It seemed like she had been away for quite some time.
Ehehe, it still feels best to be home—
“Princess, what’s the first thing you want to do after returning to the palace?” Sera asked curiously.
“Hehehe, do you even need to ask—” Xia Yi laughed. “Of course there’s only one thing!”
