298: Chapter 745 Clan Members?

The next instant, the two of them showed extreme tacit understanding. With a slight ripple in their minds, they opened a private Divine Soul transmission and quietly began to converse.

Yuan Yun was the first to transmit her voice, her tone full of amazement: "She is too beautiful... This is the person with the cleanest temperament and most Perfection I have ever seen, without exception. Her appearance, Aura, Dao Heart, and bearing are all impeccably flawless, a true peerless beauty of heaven and earth."

Yuan Luo immediately echoed in agreement, laughing to himself: "Truly Perfection, not a single flaw can be picked out. If you say our old man were here right now, I'm afraid his eyes would stare straight."

Hearing this, Yuan Yun smiled inwardly and continued to tease via voice transmission: "That's certain. Have you forgotten? Father has always favored beauties, being soft-hearted and Wen Rou, and upon seeing such a flawless Elf Queen with a holy temperament, he would surely be filled with joy."

"I dare bet that if Father were to personally visit the Wanling Domain right now, I'm afraid we'd gain another mother."

Yuan Luo couldn't help chuckling through his voice transmission, expressing deep agreement: "Absolutely right. You and I know Father's temperament all too well. Wen Rou and peerless beauties, women of transcendent character and noble status, have never escaped his vision. In terms of appearance, temperament, and status, this Elf Queen is by no means inferior to the various mothers at home. Once Father sees her, he certainly won't let her go easily."

Yuan Yun chuckled softly, continuing to banter via voice transmission: "That being said, there are already enough mothers at home, every single one of them Wen Rou and beautiful with outstanding character. If another one is added, I'm afraid the household will become too lively to have any peace."

"No, no, we cannot let Father casually form karmic ties anymore. Our family is already sufficiently Perfection, and adding more would only make things complicated."

With one speaking after another, exchanging private voice transmissions and bantering wantonly, their tone was relaxed, mischievous, and uninhibited. They looked entirely like juniors privately complaining about their own father, with relaxed states of mind and zero guard.

Being young and pure in Heart-Nature, they regarded this merely as a private chat between siblings, never expecting that the Elf Queen before them—who looked Wen Rou and harmless with a shallow, charming smile—possessed the top-tier innate Divine Ability of the Wanling Domain: Mind Reading and Thought Stealing.

As long as the opponent's cultivation was lower than hers and they lacked top-tier Divine Soul secret treasures for concealment, all thoughts, mental activity, and Divine Soul transmissions would be clearly stolen by her, leaving nothing hidden.

At this moment, Yuan Luo and Yuan Yun's cultivation and Divine Soul foundations were completely crushed by the Elf Queen, and the Supreme treasures concealing their thoughts were all resting inside their storage rings without being used, mainly because they hadn't expected anyone else to possess such ability.

Every single one of their private voice transmissions and inner complaints fell clearly and without omission into the Elf Queen's ears.

The Elf Queen, who had originally been smiling Wen Rou and shallowly with composure and dignity, saw her perfect smile stiffen imperceptibly the moment she heard the complaints about "adding another mother" and "Yuan Chen's partiality for peerless beauties."

An extremely subtle, imperceptible hint of astonishment, oddity, and helplessness flashed across the depths of her eyes.

She continued to walk forward slowly with an elegant posture and a dignified expression, showing not the slightest abnormality on the surface, though subtle ripples had long since stirred in the depths of her heart.

She stood quietly in front of the hall, her gaze gentle and clear, silently observing the two youths in front of her who looked calm and dignified on the surface but were actually playfully complaining about their father behind the scenes. She did not immediately interrupt, nor did she display the slightest displeasure.

She patiently and quietly listened to their subsequent voice transmissions and idle chatter, carefully distinguishing the good and evil of their Heart-Nature and the righteousness or wickedness of their thoughts.

From beginning to end, all she heard were juniors' pure banter, unintentional teasing, and simple mumblings, without a shred of malice, scheming, or conspiracy. Their thoughts were clean, pure, and completely free of Impurities.

Knowing that the two harbored no malice and that it was merely private chatter born of childlike Heart-Nature, the trace of subtle embarrassment in the Elf Queen's heart gradually dissipated, and far from feeling any blame...

A moment later, after the two's voice transmissions and idle chatter subsided slightly, the Elf Queen slowly spoke, her ethereal Wen Rou voice ringing out to timely interrupt their private small talk: "Two distinguished guests from Canglan Domain have come from afar. On behalf of the entire Elf Race, Gu welcomes you both to the Wanling Royal City and the Sacred Tree Heavenly Palace."

The mild voice echoed throughout the entire sacred hall, instantly pulling Yuan Luo and Yuan Yun, who had been spacing out and chatting idly, back to reality.

The two of them snapped out of it abruptly, waking up with a start, only to discover that everyone's gaze in the entire audience was quietly resting upon their sibling pair. The entire sacred hall was silent and motionless, with only the Queen's lingering voice echoing.

The sibling pair instantly realized that they had been too engrossed in their private voice transmission banter just now, actually losing focus and spacing out in public, thus missing the best timing for an audience. They had been impolite!

For a moment, the two top Prodigies, who had always been calm, composed, and tactful in their dealings, felt their cheeks burn slightly as a trace of embarrassment welled up in their hearts.

Yuan Luo reacted extremely quickly, immediately withdrawing his focus, stepping forward half a step with a correct posture and a modest demeanor, and solemnly cupping his hands in apology with a sincere and courteous attitude: "Apologies, Your Majesty. Just now, I momentarily lost focus and was slightly trance-like. I hope Your Majesty will forgive our discourtesy."

Yuan Yun also followed closely behind, bowing slightly and offering a Wen Rou apology: "My brother and I have just arrived at this noble place, and seeing the stunning and shocking sacred tree of the royal city, our minds were moved and we momentarily lost focus, causing much offense. We hope Your Majesty will pardon us."

Looking at their slightly embarrassed appearance and sincere apologies, a faint Wen Rou smile flashed through the depths of the Elf Queen's eyes, while her expression remained dignified and mild. She gently raised her hand and spoke calmly: "It is fine. For visitors from a foreign domain, being moved upon first seeing the Sacred Tree Heavenly Palace is human nature; Gu does not mind."

With a transparent Heart-Nature and a magnificent bearing, having long heard all their thoughts and knowing it was merely children's idle talk and an unintentional discourtesy, she naturally would not haggle or blame them for it.

"You two have had a hard journey coming from afar and traveling all the way, quickly take your seats." The Elf Queen raised her hand in a Wen Rou manner, gesturing for the two to take their seats with an enthusiastic and hospitable tone, "Gu has long prepared the Spirit Feasts, Immortal Brews, and specialty rare fruits that have been passed down for ten thousand years by our Elf Race. Today, a banquet will be set to host our two distinguished guests so you can thoroughly experience the local customs and practices of the Elf Race."

As her words fell, layers of elf maids walked forward gracefully, serving up exquisite local specialties one after another.

Crystal-clear spiritual dew immortal brews, sacred tree spiritual fruits that bloom once every thousand years and bear fruit once every thousand years, vegetation spirit feasts absorbing the Dao rhythm of heaven and earth, and flower sea immortal tea that calms the mind and nourishes the spirit—each precious item was rich in Spiritual Qi and possessed peerless quality. Every single one of them was a top-tier specialty unique to the Elf Race, something ordinary clansmen found difficult to taste even once in their lifetime.

The Elf Queen sat with a dignified posture and a gentle temperament, gesturing for the two to help themselves while smiling mildly and introducing the Origin and efficacy of each specialty in detail.

"This is the sacred tree spiritual fruit, taken from the hundred-year spiritual branches of the Heaven-Reaching Sacred Tree. It absorbs the essence of the sun and moon and the Dao rhythm of heaven and earth. Consuming it can nourish the Divine Soul, stabilize the foundation of Dao, and calm the mind, making it most suitable for cultivators to quiet their minds and cultivate the Dao."

"This is the Wanling Immortal Brew, condensed and fermented from a hundred kinds of spiritual flowers and a thousand kinds of spiritual grasses. Its potency is mild, neither dry nor fierce; it can warm and moisten the Meridians, dredge Spiritual Qi, harmonize body and mind, and contains not a shred of Evil Qi."

"This is the calming spirit feast, a health-preserving diet passed down for ten thousand years in our race. It aligns with the natural Dao and provides gentle nourishment. Consuming it long-term can refine the physical body through Body Refining, purify Spiritual Qi, and stabilize one's state of mind."

The Queen's speech was elegant, her Wen Rou words gentle, and her logic clear. Every single introduction was thorough and detailed, treating others with utmost patience and respect, without a shred of a monarch's condescension. She was like a warm, genial Elder—approachable, modest, and making people feel like a spring breeze.

The atmosphere during the banquet became increasingly harmonious and mild, with both host and guests thoroughly enjoying themselves in a relaxed and leisurely manner.

After eating spirit feasts for a while and chatting idly about local customs, Yuan Luo and Yuan Yun exchanged a glance, both feeling a sense of impropriety rising in their hearts.

As visitors from afar, the two of them had been treated with ultimate courtesy and hospitality by the Elf Race all the way from the Qingyang Tribe to the royal city's sacred hall, receiving courteous treatment and overflowing goodwill the entire way. Yet until this moment, the sibling pair remained seated empty-handed, having offered not a shred of congratulatory gifts nor performed a formal audience rite. It was truly lacking in etiquette and improper.

Yuan Luo immediately took advantage of the gap while picking up a spiritual fruit to quietly transmit via Divine Soul to Yuan Yun: "Sister, we have been discourteous."

"Her Majesty the Queen has entertained us with lavish hospitality and national courtesy, treating us with utmost sincerity and goodwill. As visitors from a foreign domain, attending the banquet empty-handed and offering no gifts of congratulations is far too inappropriate and lacks measure."

Yuan Yun nodded gently, transmitting back: "I share the exact same thought. Indeed, it is inappropriate. Since hospitality is hard to refuse and we are treated with generous gifts, we ought to prepare congratulatory gifts to express our gratitude and forge this karmic bond of goodwill."

"It's just that we crossed realms in a rush and didn't specially prepare congratulatory gifts. We only have the protective treasures given to us by Father in his early years, which are still quite precious and sufficient to serve as congratulatory gifts."

Yuan Luo pondered slightly, asking via voice transmission: "Then how many pieces shall we select to give away? What type of treasures would be most appropriate to send?"

Yuan Yun's eyes brightened slightly, and she instantly made a decision in her heart, proposing via Wen Rou voice transmission: "Her Majesty the Queen has a transcendent temperament, flawless appearance, and peerless posture—a peerless beauty of the Mortal world and the grace of a heavenly palace."

"Ordinary offensive and murderous treasures are too fierce and overbearing, contradicting her Wen Rou and holy temperament as well as the Elder Ping He Dao rhythm of the Elf Race, appearing slightly crude."

"In my opinion, it would be better to select a few exquisite and mild defensive jewelry Immortal Artifacts, such as jade bracelets, necklaces, hairpins, and jade pendants. They can protect against danger, stabilize Luck, and match the Queen's noble body. At the same time, they are exquisite and peerless, accentuating her grace and fitting her temperament. They are the most appropriate and proper."

Yuan Luo's eyes lit up, and he immediately agreed: "Great idea! We'll do as you say! Defensive jewelry is mild and elegant, boasts peerless aesthetics, has high practicality, is low-key, fits the Queen's temperament, and fully demonstrates our sincerity. The measure is just right!"

The sibling pair reached a consensus instantly, their hearts linked and their thoughts unified.

Their demeanor was calm and unruffled. With a gentle wave of their hands, five glowing white, mild, and spirit-contained Immortal Artifact treasures slowly floated suspended in mid-air, with swirling multicolored light, pure Spiritual Qi, and peerless quality.

The first piece was the Flowing Cloud Clear Water Jade Bracelet, transparent in texture and mildly flawless, coming with its own calming and stabilizing barrier. It could resist sneak attacks from high-tier spells, calm the mind, and stabilize Luck;

The second piece was the Star-Moon Condensed Dew Necklace, with flowing starlit patterns and lingering moonlight. It could obscure Divine Soul Aura, evade detection, conceal one's true form, and protect the mind from perishing;

The third piece was the Thousand-Snow Spiritual Jade Hairpin, with exquisite carving and naturally formed Dao textures. It could suppress the Spiritual Qi around the body, stabilize the foundation of Dao, and resist Evil Qi and evil spirits;

The fourth piece was the Mild Wind Jade Pendant, mild, heavy, restrained, and hiding its edge. It could automatically open up a defensive light barrier to withstand physical slaughter and spell bombardment;

The fifth piece was the Floating Life Spiritual Vein Ring, small, exquisite, low-key, and restrained. It could nourish Meridians, harmonize Spiritual Qi, avoid Heart Demons, and stabilize Dao Heart.

All five treasures were at the Low Grade Immortal Artifact tier, featuring perfect quality, mellow spiritual power, and orthodox Dao. Each piece combined aesthetics, practicality, and collectible value; they were Supreme treasures specially crafted and refined by Yuan Chen for the sibling pair to protect their bodies closely.

As soon as the treasures appeared, the Spiritual Qi in the entire Wanling Sacred Hall surged violently in an instant. The pure Immortal Artifact Dao rhythm swept across the entire venue, and a holy spiritual light enveloped all directions, overpowering the Aura of all native spiritual objects within the hall.

The Elf Queen, who had originally been smiling calmly and quietly listening to the two of them communicating in secret, saw the five Immortal Artifacts, and her gentle smile suddenly hitched. A trace of extreme and unmistakable shock instantly swept across her clear eyes!

As the Supreme Queen of the Wanling Domain, she held the Luck of her clan, had seen countless native treasures and high-tier spiritual items, and innumerable ninth-rank Supreme treasures and ten-thousand-year spiritual materials. However, treasures at the Immortal Artifact tier were simply unheard of and unseen throughout the entire Wanling Domain!

The overall cultivation system of the Wanling Domain was relatively low, and the highest-tier treasures merely touched the Peak of Mortal Weapon and quasi-Spirit Treasure levels. They had a difference as vast as heaven and earth, a mud-and-cloud disparity compared to true Immortal Artifacts of the heavens!

With a single move, they produced five Low Grade Immortal Artifacts!

Such financial power, such grandness, and such foundation instantly subverted the Queen's understanding of prodigies from beyond the domain!

Not just the Queen, but all the royal ministers, temple Elders, and palace guards in the hall constricted their pupils sharply, their faces filled with shock. Their breathing unconsciously slowed, and their eyes were filled with disbelief!

Five Immortal Artifacts floated in mid-air, their spiritual light vast, their Dao intent pure, and their pressure restrained. Each one far exceeded the treasure limit of the Wanling Domain, making them peerless treasures indeed!

They did not recognize them, but they could feel how formidable they were!

Everyone was left with only a single thought in their hearts: These two Canglan Realm prodigies were simply too extravagant and had too profound of a foundation! The personal treasures they casually brought out were peerless Supreme treasures that crushed the entire Wanling Domain!

The entire venue was dead silent, leaving only the soft sound of the Immortal Artifacts' spiritual light slowly flowing.

Yuan Luo's expression was calm and his demeanor humble. He slowly raised his hand, presenting the five Immortal Artifacts one by one, while gently introducing the efficacy and usage of each item with clear logic, sincerity, and openness.

"Your Majesty, my younger sister and I have just arrived at this noble place. Arriving in a rush without preparing any gifts, we feel deeply apologetic in our hearts."

"These five treasures were personally refined by our father in his early years as our personal protective Immortal Artifacts. Their grades are not high, both being at the Low Grade Immortal Artifact level. Their strengths lie in being gentle and safe, combining both offense and defense, as well as calming the mind and nurturing the spirit."

"This Flowing Cloud Jade Bracelet, Star-Moon Necklace, and Spirit Jade Hairpin are elegant, gentle, and fit one's temperament well. They can protect the body, calm the mind, and stabilize Luck. This Gentle Breeze Jade Pendant and Floating Life Ring can fend off enemies, avoid danger, nourish the Dao Heart, and guard against Heart Demons."

"For your generous hospitality and the royal family's kind treatment this time, we have nothing to repay you with. We hereby present these five meager gifts to briefly express our gratitude, and we hope Your Majesty will graciously accept them."

Beside him, Yuan Yun's eyes were sparkling, filled with pure expectation and goodwill. Her gaze looked softly at the Elf Queen seated in the main position, and she spoke in a soft, gentle voice, her tone sincere and earnest:

"Your Majesty's appearance is peerless, your temperament unmatched, and your grace is legendary. You are the most perfect and holy person I have ever seen."

"These few jewelry-type Immortal Artifacts possess warm Spiritual Qi, elegant appearance, and exquisitely beautiful patterns. When worn by ordinary people, they would only appear slightly flashy and fail to support the spiritual charm. Only with Your Majesty's peerless grace, temperament, and holy backbone can they be perfectly wielded to set off the spiritual nature of the treasures."

"I have an exceptional expectation in my heart, wanting to witness firsthand what kind of graceful scenery these treasures would present when worn on the Queen. It is both to let the treasures meet an excellent master and bloom with brilliance, and to borrow Your Majesty's peerless grace to fulfill the beauty of forming a bond between the two realms. We hope Your Majesty can grant this wish and try wearing them."

These words were spoken extremely well and showed a very high emotional intelligence.

There was no stiffness of forced gift-giving, nor any deliberate flattering flattery; it was sincere, generous, gentle, and appropriate. It both praised the Queen's peerless grace and elevated the value of the treasures, fully displaying respect and goodwill, and vividly exhibiting a junior's pure expectations and sincere feelings.

Hearing this, the Elf Queen felt the slight embarrassment and intention of refusal in her heart—born from the Immortal Artifacts being too precious—instantly dissipate entirely, replaced by warmth and appreciation.

Looking at the little girl before her, whose Spiritual Qi was pure, whose Heart-Nature was gentle, and who was sweet-mouthed and sensible, the gentleness in her eyes grew even richer. She smiled faintly and nodded gently, "Since the young lady has such expectations and her intentions are utmost sincere, then this sovereign will accept them without declining."

As her voice fell, she raised her hand and waved it lightly, and the five streaks of Immortal Artifact spiritual light obediently fell into her palm.

Without the slightest neglect or contempt, she gently put them on publicly.

The Flowing Cloud Jade Bracelet made her snow-white wrists look flawless and warm; the Star-Moon Necklace fit snugly against her neck, with flowing light turning and Immortal Qi lingering; the Spirit Jade Hairpin bound her dark hair, making her elegant, refined, and incomparably holy.

With the three pieces of jewelry added to her body, the already flawless Elf Queen became even more legendary in grace, ethereal with Immortal Qi, and noble beyond the Mortal dust. Her entire temperament rose to another level, so breathtakingly beautiful that people couldn't look away and felt awe in their hearts.

"So beautiful!" Yuan Yun's eyes instantly lit up in praise from the bottom of her heart. "Treasures set off beauties, and her grace crowns the heavens! Your Majesty's posture is truly peerless and incomparably gorgeous!"

The Elf Queen was amused by her straightforward and sincere praise, causing her brows and eyes to stretch out and her smile to turn gentle. In her heart, she grew even more fond of this pure, transparent, gentle, and sensible little girl.

After just a short moment of interaction, the two of them had already become completely familiar and close, just like good friends across generations, chatting gracefully with a harmonious atmosphere.

Amidst the banquet, the atmosphere was relaxed, warm and cozy, and both host and guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

After three rounds of drinks and a few casual remarks, the atmosphere became even more leisurely. The Elf Queen reined in her smile, her expression turning slightly serious, and she asked the doubt that had been hidden deep in her heart for a long time—a key question concerning the safety of the Wanling Domain.

With gentle and clear eyes, she quietly looked at Yuan Luo and Yuan Yun, and asked softly, "Two dear nephews, this sovereign recently received a transmission from our border clansmen. Within the territory of the East Territory's Dwarves, two unfamiliar outside creatures have abruptly appeared recently."

"Their appearance, temperament, physique, posture, breath, and Dao charm are completely different from all races in the Wanling Domain. They are definitely not native beings, and are suspected to have crossed realms from beyond."

"The Dwarves' territory has been quite shaken because of this. Multiple forces have secretly investigated, but they have never been able to trace the Origins and background of the two. This sovereign is puzzled, wondering if these two otherworldly beings are companions who crossed realms together with your Canglan Realm?"

To make it easier for the brother and sister to recognize them, the Queen then meticulously described the appearance characteristics, Aura, and form of those two unfamiliar beings:

"According to the intelligence records sent back from the border, those two beings have tall and slender physiques, faint scales, and incomparably tyrannical bodies. Their entire bodies naturally carry a vast and majestic domineering Aura, with an ancient, boundless breath, a profound foundation, and a natural Supreme Aura field."

"Their entire bodies are covered with layers of dark black gold scales. The texture of the scales is as hard as divine iron of the heavens, and each piece is polished to a glowing, translucent luster, interlocking layer upon layer. As they breathe, they slowly circulate brilliant golden light. The dark and deep background color makes the golden patterns appear even more noble and domineering. Their heads are massive and majestic, with sharp, stern contours. Two spiral-shaped golden horns are tall and slender, with archaic and vicissitude-filled patterns. A pair of vertical pupils are clear, deep, and purely gilded, coldly looking down upon everything in the world. Their whiskers hang down like ink silk and sway gently with the wind. When their mouths open and close, sharp teeth are faintly visible, flashing with a chilling light that startles the soul..."

"Their physiques far exceed ordinary beings, their combat power is monstrous, their Aura is domineering, and they carry Supreme pressure. They are suspected to be ancient exotic beast Bloodline beings."

The Queen slowly recounted the details of the image, the Aura characteristics, and the physical appearance, with clear logic and minute detail.

As the description became more detailed and the characteristics clearer, the calm and leisurely smiles on Yuan Luo and Yuan Yun's faces slowly faded, and their eyes instantly flashed with thick astonishment and surprise!

The two of them exchanged glances, both seeing the exact same shock and sudden realization in each other's eyes.

These characteristics, this physique, this Aura, this Bloodline pressure, these scale patterns, this Supreme Dragon Might...

There was no need for further thought, no need for repeated confirmation!

These were simply not some strange exotic beasts or otherworldly beings!

These were—the Dragon Clan!

Before everyone could recover their wits, Yuan Luo's figure moved slightly, and the spiritual light around his body suddenly surged.

There was no earth-shattering roar, only a refreshing and vast azure radiance sweeping across the entire Wanling Sacred Hall. His tall and upright youth figure suddenly stretched and blurred, shedding his Mortal skin to transform into an extremely unique true form.

With a slender and vigorous Azure Dragon body as the base, it was covered in fine, translucent azure-green scales. Every scale circulated a warm watery light and a faint primordial dragon might, and its back grew semi-transparent azure-patterned dragon wings, with gentle breezes circulating around the hall upon a slight flap. Yet, apart from the majesty and grandeur of the Dragon Clan, its posture also carried a bit of a spirit cat's lightness and elegance. The lines were smooth and soft, the dragon's head had gentle contours rather than being sharp, its eyes were translucent glazed cyan, its pupils were rounded with a touch of liveliness and gentleness, its dragon whiskers were fine, soft, and lightly drooped, and its four dragon claws kept their sharpness hidden. It combined the Supreme charm of the Azure Dragon with the cute agility of a spirit cat, majestic yet not tyrannical, peerless yet unique.

The dragon shadow coiled in the center of the hall, the azure radiance shrouding all directions, steadily capturing everyone's gaze.

Yuan Luo's deep and gentle voice sounded softly along with the dragon might, echoing in the silent sacred hall, "Is the otherworldly giant dragon mentioned by Your Majesty like this?"

The Elf Queen's gaze suddenly condensed, the light waves in her clear eyes flickering violently. Her figure stiffened slightly, and her eyes churned with hard-to-conceal shock and surprise. She slowly stepped forward by half a step, her gaze meticulously tracing Yuan Luo's unique true form, her expression complex and novel.

After a long while, she shook her head gently, her tone carrying a bit of confident hesitation, "A little bit like it."

The waves in the Queen's heart surged, unable to calm down for a long time. She never expected that the two otherworldly prodigies before her, with their elegant and gentle, modest temperaments, who looked like ordinary youths, would actually have such a true form.

All the royal ministers, Elders, and guards in the hall held their breath and concentrated, their pupils contracting sharply, their hearts filled with shock, and no one dared to easily break this silence.

The azure radiance slightly receded, the dragon shadow blurred and faded away, and Yuan Luo's figure flowed, instantly restoring into the gentle and elegant youth form, his temperament returning to being modest and calm.

He spoke calmly, his voice smooth and clear, patiently solving the puzzle, "Your Majesty need not be surprised. The Dragon Clan in the Canglan Realm has numerous branches and various categories. As for me, I am merely a side branch mutant of the Dragon Clan, a special category formed by the fusion of the Azure Dragon Spiritual Vein and the spirit cat Bloodline, so my physique differs somewhat from orthodox true dragons."

This transparent and straightforward explanation instantly unraveled all the doubts in the Queen's heart.

Hearing this, the Elf Queen slowly nodded, the surprise in her eyes gradually dissipating, replaced by realization and deep thought. She slightly raised her gaze, looked at Yuan Luo, and softly pursued, "That being said, are those two ancient true dragons that appeared in the East Territory your kindred and also your friends?"

Yuan Luo frowned slightly, shook his head gently, and his expression added a bit of prudence and solemnity, "This I cannot be certain of."

"The Dragon Clan is not exclusive to the Canglan Realm; dragon descendants inhabit and multiply across all realms of the heavens. Their Bloodline lineage is complex, and they do not belong to or know one another. I cannot judge whether they are my Canglan kindred merely based on the Origin of dragon might, let alone claim familiarity with them."
