Chapter 2

She raised her dragon scales, and her tail struck the ground heavily, creating a pit in the soil. The force was too great, and the tip of her tail flashed in pain, causing tears to well up in her eyes.

The foggy mirror did not continue speaking afterwards

A soft snicker sounded.

Mist looked at the furious figure of Yao Huan, regretting so much that her insides felt twisted with remorse

The roar of the dragon reverberated through the mountains and fields, the oppressive might of the dragon clan spread out like a blanket, startling the birds in the forest to flutter down to the ground.

The fog mirror, desperately hiding its traces beneath the tree, couldn't hold back and exposed itself... At this moment, she still couldn't control herself, laughing uncontrollably... The entire piece of black-gray stone was on the verge of crumbling into dust...

Yao Huan did not notice the sudden chill in his tone; she was captivated by the question posed by the Emperor. She blinked, counting on her fingers. ... However, she could not continue counting after reaching ten ...

Stop swaying and turn around to look behind

Yao Huan did not understand, and he patted the tip of his own tail: "I can fly and swim, and I can roll out as well..."

She cradled the small orchid into her cave, placing it in a spot where it could receive light. Then she found a comfortable position to lie down, her relaxed tail hanging down to the ground, the tip of her tail touching the clear spring that she had dug out with her own claws, flicking it back and forth, feeling extremely content

The Earth God swallowed the old blood that was at the tip of his tongue and trembled as he got up: "I am still here."

The Emperor's fingertips still held a white chess piece, the jade piece shimmering under the sunlight like a beam of light, radiating brilliance at his fingertips. The place where he originally intended to place the piece had been thoroughly blocked by Shao Huan with this pot of orchids. He slightly furrowed his brows, discreetly withdrew his hand, and toyed with the chess piece at his fingertips, leisurely uttering an "Oh".

There is a patch of miasma-laden forest ahead, and the joy of the breeze is often dismissed due to the poor air quality, which is why I never go there. However, if I wish to leave this mountain peak, I am afraid I must pass through this grove of camphor trees.

pouting, feeling unhappy

Yao Huan has run away from home

She cautiously raised her head to glance at the Emperor, who was fiddling with the chessboard. Seeing him looking relaxed and completely undisturbed, she let out a faint sigh in her heart and tucked herself further into the gap in the tree.

The Earth God has existed in her memory since the very beginning of her recollections. Her feelings towards the Earth God are probably such that... he would tease the myriad of fairies in the mountains but would never think of stealing the Earth God's staff

Land God : `` ... ... ''

The Emperor's slightly cold glance made her swallow all her words back, no longer daring to speak.

The Emperor visits daily to inspect and probe the spiritual awareness of the little orchid grass

After she walked a few miles in a huff, she realized ... . ... She was too familiar with this mountain, and she did not know how long she had lived here; at this point, even if she wanted to run away from home, she could not find a single unfamiliar path.

Upon hearing about the ferocious beast, Yao Huan felt a sense of crisis. She stared with her big eyes and asked earnestly, "Can it be more ferocious than me?"

When the little dragon was still an egg, the Earth God took her from the hands of the Four Seas Emperor and cared for her until the Emperor returned in person. Naturally, he understood that these spirits were merely afraid and annoyed by the little dragon's playful antics, which were not malicious in nature. Therefore, he was not frightened by the commotion she deliberately caused, and he sighed softly, saying: "I do not wish to undermine the Emperor's efforts. Miss Yao should inquire with the Emperor herself. However, there are fierce beasts in this miasma forest, so it would be best for Miss Yao not to enter."

This mountain is sealed by a barrier; it is not so easy for her to leave.

The rising tone pressed down on the little heart of the shaking joy, causing it to tremble, and the tip of the tail suddenly tightened

Before long, the amplitude of the tail's tip swaying began to gradually decrease

The perpetrator showed no awareness whatsoever and was looking around in search of someone.

It is unknown whether he has calmed down, as his face remains expressionless and he has not even glanced at her. Instead, he shows great concern for the orchid; if the orchid could speak, he would likely inquire about its well-being.

Before long, indeed, we saw Yao Huan rush out from the cave. She heavily placed the pot of orchids onto the chessboard in front of the Emperor and turned her head, snorting, "I won't raise them anymore"

She resolved to venture out and seek a new peak, to live a life of freedom and ease. After making this decision, she disregarded the strange feelings in her heart and swiftly moved through the forested mountains.

The Earth God watched her as she slapped her tail, making a loud noise, as if she were afraid that others would not know she had a tail. Feeling somewhat awkward, he stroked his chin and said, "Why don't you ask the Emperor?"

After feeling so suffocated for several days, Yaohuan really couldn't hold it in any longer

She did not feel that anything was wrong; the days when no one bothered her were the most pleasant.

The misty mirror, however, could not feel at ease simply because the Emperor said, "It is of no concern." She was so worried that her entire stone body seemed on the verge of sprouting moss: "The little demon knows that the Emperor has punished Yao Huan to take care of the orchids these days and not allow her to go out, as there are fierce beasts about to awaken. Yao Huan has always been inexperienced; she does not understand the dangers..."

The Earth God was taken aback, as if he had heard a joke. He chuckled twice and candidly replied: "Others can leave here with ease, but as for the girl, it would be futile to bother."

The Earth God took a deep breath and slowly got up. He was advanced in age, and his voice was frail: "I see you are heading towards the miasma forest; it has not been safe here lately"

Yao Huan, though she could not understand, knew she was being reprimanded by the Emperor. She had already been cooped up in the cave for so long that she felt she might start to mold. It was already quite difficult for someone with her nature, who thrived on chaos, to quietly observe this orchid for five days. Now, being both mocked and scolded, her face instantly flushed red.

She stared blankly at her claws, somewhat puzzled: "Ten years old?"

But it is evident that Yao Huan was overly optimistic

As far as the revelry is concerned, this emperor has always been dictatorial

Upon hearing the words "Yao Huan," she immediately became agitated, jumping up and down, leaving numerous claw marks on the tree, exuding an air of ferocity.

She wants to go to the mountains to catch wild birds and collect their eggs, to roll down the slope and play on the slide, to catch scorpions and pull out their stingers once more, so that they will avoid her in the future and never dare to complain again

As soon as the words were spoken, the long tail swung back around, and the Earth God could only grasp his cane tightly before being swept away by the jubilant tail

Before falling asleep, I was still in a daze, thinking... In a few days... In a few days, the Emperor should calm down.

The Emperor rarely displayed a hint of a smile, but just as that smile began to grace the corners of his lips, he suppressed it with an impassive demeanor. His expression darkened as he cast a sidelong glance at the young dragon before him, his voice growing increasingly somber: "Unaware of what is good for you."

Then the fairies in this mountain, upon seeing her, will immediately scatter like birds and beasts. Those who ascend the mountain to gather firewood or collect herbs, merely hearing her breath, are filled with dread.

The misty mirror emerged from the gaps in the trees, filled with concern: "Your Majesty, the joy of shaking..."

She rolled back and forth several times in the cave, creating a complete mess. Even the mist mirror, which was hiding in the shade of the trees to cool off, could hear the roars coming from the cave from a distance.

The cry that was almost on her lips was swallowed down; she straightened her chest and shouted, "I want to run away from home! I will no longer live on this hill, I will give it up! To! You!"

She is like a stone, with simple thoughts and not much complexity; at that moment, she laughed when she wanted to, not expecting that shaking joy would care so much.

This little dragon wants to be picked up by its tail again

Yao Huan took two steps forward while holding its tail and looked down at him: "But I have to leave here"

Yao Huan finally saw the Earth God this time, and she hugged her own tail tightly, looking at the Earth God, who could no longer get up, with a face full of apology

The Earth God was originally standing on the giant rock behind her; he was short in stature, and if he did not stand a bit higher, he would probably not be seen. As a result, just as he steadied himself, he was unexpectedly knocked away by the tail of the joyful turning around.

Of course, if Yao Huan could defy the law, she would still be the dragon that walks arrogantly through this forest.

"How old are you?" The Emperor gave her a faint glance, his tone indifferent

Long ago, she did not yet know the Mist Mirror, and the fairies in the mountains were unwilling to befriend her. Her presence was at odds with the mountain. No one would tell her how time passed, nor would anyone instruct her on how to live each day. Over time, she became increasingly mischievous, and whenever she saw the little fairies, she would play tricks on them.

Yao Huan immediately looked down.

Just as she was about to set off, a sudden voice emerged: "Miss Yao, where are you going?"

If it starts to rain later, it won't stop easily in a short time

Not far away, on the lush green branches, a person casually bent a blade of grass, and suddenly let out a light laugh

The Emperor merely moved the pot of orchids to one side of the chessboard. The white piece at his fingertip landed on the grid of the board with a crisp and pleasant sound. Leaves shaken loose by the wind floated down gently. The Emperor flicked his fingers and softly said, "It is of no consequence"

She turned her head back, glaring at him angrily: "I want to go out and play"
