284: Chapter 284 Seven Seven Forty-Nine

"Why..."

"In my dreams, I clearly remember your name is Yun Chi. I know your looks, the warmth of your body, and your scent. I remember it all."

"But why... every time I wake up, I can only remember a blurry figure of your back? I can't even remember your name."

"Why..."

"There were several times I felt like you were right by my side, but I just couldn't see you or find you."

"Yun Chi, does a person like you actually exist in this world? Do you know how hard I've been looking for you..."

As Yun Chi felt the soft, delicate woman in his arms, he suddenly realized what a bastardly thing he had done.

He wanted to pull Ye Qingqing's hands away, but he paused when he felt the fragrance and softness emanating from her body.

"Qingqing... I'm sorry..."

It was at this moment that Yun Chi completely understood his own heart.

So this was what the human race called 'love'.

He knew he had fallen in love with Ye Qingqing.

And he loved her to the point of no return.

On that day, Yun Chi told Ye Qingqing everything.

Including his true identity.

Tasting the fruit of love for the first time, Yun Chi gave his whole heart and told Ye Qingqing everything about his background.

Including the fact that he was a dragon.

Yun Chi originally thought Ye Qingqing would be afraid.

But he didn't expect that when Ye Qingqing looked at him, her eyes would be filled with absolute love.

"Yun Chi, I love you for who you are. No matter what you are, I will love you."

Yun Chi was deeply moved at that time.

He felt that in all of heaven and earth, he had finally found something meaningful.

His world was no longer dull and waveless; instead, it was full of color.

He transformed into his dragon form and took Ye Qingqing to see the most beautiful sights in the world.

They watched the sunrise together and gazed at the stars together.

When their passion reached its peak, they only had eyes for each other.

During this time, the two of them also raised a puppy together.

Ye Qingqing was very fond of the little black dog. Even though its entire body was black—

With only a tiny bit of Ah Huang on it—she insisted on naming the dog Ah Huang.

Yun Chi was somewhat helpless about this.

But as long as Ye Qingqing liked it, Yun Chi went along with it.

However, for some reason, whenever Ah Huang was alone with Ye Qingqing, he was extremely happy.

But as soon as Yun Chi appeared, Ah Huang showed a displeased side.

Even every time Yun Chi wanted to pat Ah Huang's head, Ah Huang would dodge it.

Instead, he would burrow into Ye Qingqing's arms.

Seeing this scene, Yun Chi was furious.

His wife was actually being snatched away by a dog!

Yun Chi could not tolerate this!

He often competed with Ah Huang for Ye Qingqing's attention.

Back and forth, the dragon and the dog developed a grudge.

They simply couldn't stand the sight of each other.

Sometimes, Yun Chi even felt like he was going crazy; only a madman would compete with a few-months-old black puppy for a person.

It was quite a waste of the hundreds of thousands of years Yun Chi had lived.

One day, Ye Qingqing suddenly asked, "Yun Chi, you say you can live for hundreds of thousands of years, but I can't live that long. Moreover, I age very quickly. In a few years, I might become old and withered."

"Will you still like me then?"

Yun Chi had actually considered this problem, but he had been avoiding it.

Whenever Yun Chi thought about witnessing Ye Qingqing's death with his own eyes, his heart felt a sharp, peeling pain.

It seemed he simply could not accept the fact that Ye Qingqing would die.

Yun Chi suddenly pulled Ye Qingqing into a tight hug.

"No matter what you become, I will always love you. And, I won't let that day happen."

At this moment, Yun Chi's mind began to scheme how he could make Ye Qingqing possess an eternal lifespan like his own.

Perhaps he was selfish; he wanted to unilaterally change the fate of Ye Qingqing, a member of the human race.

But precisely because of this, his actions were discovered by the Heavenly Dao.

When the Heavenly Dao appeared before Yun Chi and Ye Qingqing, the Heavenly Dao was extremely angry.

"Yun Chi!"

"You are the most noble Golden Dragon of the Dragon Clan!"

"She is just an ordinary human! What do you like about her!"

"Inter-species love is destined to have no result!"

"The Heavenly Dao cannot be defied! Have you forgotten all this!"

Ye Qingqing had never seen the Heavenly Dao. At this moment, because of the Heavenly Dao's appearance, a black cloud instantly appeared in the sky, enveloping the entire sky within it.

Accompanying the black cloud was rolling purple lightning.

Each bolt of lightning was as thick as a giant python; just one look at it was terrifying.

Yun Chi held Ye Qingqing.

"Qingqing, don't be afraid. I'm here. Watch me go and overturn the heavens of that Little Heavenly Dao, and let him know that I am the Dao!"

After Yun Chi spoke, he funneled a surge of energy into Ah Huang's body.

"Ah Huang, the task of protecting Qingqing is entrusted to you. Don't let me down. You also have your two subordinates here."

"Remember, no matter what happens, you must protect Qingqing without ever leaving her side."

Ah Huang looked at Yun Chi. Although he still disliked him, for Ye Qingqing's sake, Ah Huang temporarily and reluctantly agreed to Yun Chi's request: "Woof!"

Ah Huang's inner monologue: I know, I heard you with both ears! This dog knows to stay by Qingqing's side without you telling me!

"Woof!"

Yun Chi took one last deep look at Ye Qingqing.

He transformed into his Golden Dragon form and charged directly into the black clouds.

This struggle lasted for forty-nine days.

Every day, countless purple lightning bolts descended from the sky.

At this time, the human realm had already turned into a living hell.

Countless living beings fled in all directions.

But no matter where they went, it was the same.

The sun was gone; all that remained were black clouds and purple lightning.

Ye Qingqing hugged Ah Huang tightly: "Ah Huang, tell me, can Yun Chi win?"

"Ah Huang, I'm scared."

Ah Huang's eyes were also fixed on the sky. Actually, the dog didn't know either. Although Ah Huang didn't like Yun Chi, in his heart, Ah Huang didn't want Yun Chi to get hurt.

If Yun Chi got hurt, Ye Qingqing would be sad. Ah Huang didn't want Ye Qingqing to be sad, so he didn't want Yun Chi to get hurt.

But Ah Huang would absolutely never admit that he was worried about Yun Chi.

He would absolutely never admit it!

Just then, the two subordinates Yun Chi had left for Ah Huang returned to sound an alarm.

"Awoo~"

A tiger and a lion ran towards Ye Qingqing from two different directions.

Ah Huang stood up instantly, showing his authority as the boss.

"Woof!"

With Ah Huang's bark, the tiger and lion stopped right there.

The three of them engaged in a communication that Ye Qingqing couldn't understand.

"Xiao Guang, Xiao Hu!"

"What's wrong?"

Ye Qingqing was also anxious. Seeing the appearance of the three, she was very worried that something had happened to Yun Chi.

But just as Ye Qingqing finished speaking—

A circle of light accompanied by black clouds landed on Ye Qingqing's body.
