Chapter 102 Dragon God's Protection
"It's over!!!"
Just as Brigitte's heart was about to leap out of her throat and she was preparing to mobilize all her soul power to resist, a questioning voice suddenly rang out.
"What Light Dragon King?"
Lu Xingchen heard Na'er's exclamation and turned around somewhat blankly.
The moment he turned around, the golden dragon shadow radiating holy light instantly turned into specks of golden light, like melting ice and snow, and dissipated into the air.
Along with the enormous nine-colored dragon-shaped light and shadow in mid-air, it receded like the tide, turning into a stream of light that suddenly entered the nine-colored crystal.
As the light faded, the nine-colored bracelet flew up into the air, as if it had come to life, and slowly wrapped around Lu Xingchen's right wrist, fitting perfectly.
At the same time, a grand and majestic voice, like the sound of morning bells and evening drums, resounded in the minds of Na'er, Zi Ji, Bi Ji, and Chi Wang: "This young man is the benefactor of our Dragon Clan. This bracelet is proof. Anyone who dares to harm him in the slightest is an enemy of our Dragon Clan!"
As the words fell, the nine-colored light gradually disappeared. Zi Ji and Chi Wang trembled for several minutes before the fear originating from the depths of their bloodline gradually subsided.
The two of them finally stopped trembling, but were panting heavily, their chests heaving violently, as if they had just walked through the gates of hell.
"Heh~ Heh~"
Zi Ji collapsed onto the cold ground, her long, black hair clinging messily to her cheeks, her usually alluring purple eyes now filled with lingering fear.
Seeing their disheveled appearance, Lu Xingchen quickly stepped forward and reached out to help them up, her voice filled with concern: "Um, are you alright? Are you okay?"
"You! Don't come any closer!!!"
Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, Zi Ji let out a sharp scream and instinctively shrank back, wishing she could just disappear into a corner.
She stared intently at the bracelet on Lu Xingchen's wrist, her eyes brimming with fear, and her voice trembled.
As the Demon Dragon King of Hell, and as a pure-blooded true dragon, she knew better than anyone else present the significance of that nine-colored light and shadow.
That was no ordinary energy fluctuation; it was clearly the protection of the Dragon God!
It is the supreme will of the Dragon God that is protecting this boy!
Zi Ji's heart was filled with shock. Of course, she knew that the light and shadow was not the real Dragon God descending. After all, all the dragons knew that the Dragon God had perished in the great war of the gods ten thousand years ago, and his soul had been shattered.
Therefore, the Dragon God's will just now was more like a projection of will formed by the condensation of the faith power of countless dragons, and it was the highest protection that the dragons had for their benefactor.
Even a projection is something that ordinary dragons cannot contend with!
It should be understood that the Dragon God is the source of faith for all dragons. Only those who have cultivated to the level of 100,000 years can barely draw upon a meager amount of faith power.
The power of faith contained in that nine-colored light was so intense that it terrified Zi Ji. Even if a hundred of her were combined, it would be impossible to summon it.
It is likely that only during the most prosperous ancient period of the dragon race could such a magnificent dragon god's will have appeared!
But how is that possible?
How could such powerful protection from the Dragon God appear on a human? Even their lord has never received such treatment!
Not to mention, at the last moment, even the Light Dragon King, one of the nine great dragon kings, personally appeared to warn them!
Although the Dragon Soul of the Light Dragon King did not appear to be in very good condition, its consciousness was clearly well preserved.
With the endorsement of a Dragon King, this young man before us undoubtedly owes the Dragon Clan an immense debt of gratitude!
But how is this possible? How is this possible?!
The Hell Dragon King's mind was a complete mess, with countless questions swirling in her head, making her dizzy and disoriented.
The pain of being crushed by the Dragon God's will, and the chilling warning from the Light Dragon King, were etched into the depths of her soul like a brand.
So much so that, at this moment, facing a "weak soul master" whose strength was far inferior to her own, Zi Ji actually felt a rare, deep-seated fear, and did not even have the courage to look the other person in the eye.
"Uh, what's wrong with her—"
Lu Xingchen was startled by Zi Ji's reaction and quickly stopped, awkwardly withdrawing his hand.
He turned to look at Nar, who was completely unaffected, and then at Brigitte, who was in relatively better condition, his eyes filled with confusion.
At this moment, Na'er finally recovered from her shock.
She looked at Zi Ji and Chi Wang, who were sprawled on the ground in a disheveled state, and then at the nine-colored bracelet on Lu Xingchen's wrist. She slowly explained, "Don't worry, she was just frightened by the will contained in your bracelet. She'll be fine after a while."
Despite saying that, Na'er's gaze toward Lu Xingchen was filled with undisguised shock and confusion.
To receive the protection of the Dragon God's will and have the Light Dragon King's soul personally appear to help, the kindness this guy has shown to the dragon race is probably beyond imagination.
But he doesn't look more than ten years old. What earth-shattering thing did he do that made a Dragon King endorse him?
What shocked Na'er even more was that the Light Dragon King was still "alive"!
Although it was just a dragon soul, judging from its clear speech and complete consciousness just now, it had obviously not dissipated, but had survived in some special way.
These events, one after another, were all too unbelievable, shocking Na'er's little brain to the point of short-circuiting.
What's going on with this weirdo in front of me?
"I see."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xingchen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He lowered his head, looking at the nine-colored bracelet on his wrist, a perfectly measured look of doubt on his face. "But, does this bracelet actually have this ability? It can emit such beautiful nine-colored light."
Upon hearing this, Na'er's eyes flashed with surprise, and she pressed, "You possess this bracelet, don't you know its meaning?"
"meaning?"
Lu Xingchen scratched his head, a look of confusion on his face, and said quite frankly, "These are just parting gifts from some special friends of mine. They didn't tell me anything about any special functions."
He paused, then asked curiously, "Do you perhaps know the function of this bracelet?"
In truth, he knew better than anyone else, but seeing the frightened expressions of these ferocious beasts, he found it quite amusing, so he simply pretended to know nothing and played a trick on them.
Na'er carefully examined Lu Xingchen. Seeing that his eyes were clear and the confusion between his brows seemed genuine, as if he truly did not know the value of the bracelet, her tense face softened a little.
She gently shook her head and said solemnly, "Since your friend didn't say it explicitly, I can't tell you directly either. I can only say that this bracelet is extremely precious, and you must take good care of it."
"Okay, I understand."
Lu Xingchen nodded obediently, then looked at Zi Ji and Chi Wang, who were still sprawled on the ground, shaken. He scratched his head somewhat apologetically and said, "I'm so sorry for causing you so much trouble. I'll leave right away and won't bother you anymore."
"Huh? You're leaving?"
Na'er was stunned when she heard this. Her beautiful eyes were filled with astonishment, as if she had never expected him to say such a thing.
Lu Xingchen nodded matter-of-factly: "Yes. After all, as an outsider, my presence here might continue to cause you some trouble, so it's better to leave as soon as possible."
"Actually, it's not that bothersome—"
Na'er muttered something under her breath, her voice so low it was like a mosquito's hum.
She subconsciously turned her head away, a barely perceptible hint of inner conflict flashing in her eyes.
This guy in front of her had too many secrets, and she was really unwilling to let him leave just like that.
And what's more! And this guy saw her naked! He even—he even touched her with his...that...
Thinking of this, Na'er's cheeks flushed slightly, and she couldn't help but gently bite her lower lip, a hint of resentment flashing in her clear eyes.
No, wouldn't that be a huge loss for her?
Just as Na'er was struggling with how to persuade him to stay, Brigitte suddenly stepped forward and said softly, "Young friend, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Didn't you say before that you were suddenly teleported to Shrek City?"
She looked at Lu Xingchen with gentle eyes and continued, "I see that you don't have any storage soul tools on you, so you probably don't have much Federal currency with you."
"The cost of living in Shrek City is quite high. It would be very difficult to survive here without enough money. If you don't mind, you can stay here temporarily until you find a place to stay."
Well done!
Na'er silently gave Brigitte a thumbs up in her heart. There were some things that she, as an avatar of the Silver Dragon King, couldn't say directly. In this situation, she naturally needed her subordinate to act as her "mouth substitute".
However, Lu Xingchen shook his head and politely declined, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary. To be honest, I have some acquaintances in Shrek City, and I can easily ask them for lodging."
Having already said all that, Brigitte couldn't press him any further.
She turned to look at Na'er, gave her a wink, and her eyes were questioning, clearly seeking her opinion.
Biji knew very well that Lu Xingchen was protected by the dragon race. If she rashly attacked him, she might draw out the dragon soul of the Light Dragon King again. In that case, she would be the one to suffer.
After all, her true form is an emerald swan, specializing in healing and support, and not particularly adept at combat.
But Na'er is different.
As the other half of the Silver Dragon King, she possesses the purest silver dragon bloodline. If she were to stop Lu Xingchen, the Dragon God's will within the bracelet might turn a blind eye out of consideration for their bloodline.
Na'er met Brigitte's gaze, remained silent for a moment, and finally gently shook her head.
Because she suddenly realized something—although these ferocious beasts appeared respectful and obedient to her, their true allegiance was never to her, Na'er, but to Gu Yue, the complete Silver Dragon King.
Even if she forcibly keeps Lu Xingchen here today, Bi Ji and the others will most likely pass the message to Gu Yue immediately.
When Gu Yue returns, won't all the secrets she painstakingly uncovered just go to that guy for nothing?
She wouldn't want to do something that benefits someone else!
Na'er pursed her lips, secretly pondering to herself. It seemed that letting this guy leave wasn't such a bad option after all.
Thinking of this, Na'er looked up at the boy standing not far away. In his clear, gem-like eyes, the hesitation from before had faded, replaced by a seriousness.
She took a small step forward, her clear, bright voice carrying a hint of coquettishness: "I still don't know your name?"
"Lu Xingchen".
"Lu—Xingchen." Na'er murmured, then leaned forward slightly, her silver eyes shining like a shattered galaxy, staring intently at the boy in front of her, her tone unusually solemn: "My name is Na'er, remember it well."

The moment she finished speaking, Na'er herself was stunned for a moment.
Why did she feel that this guy in front of her seemed to have become even more handsome than when they first met?
Was it just her imagination?
Or perhaps it's because they know he has the protection of the dragons, and subconsciously they feel he's a "good person," so they look at him with a more biased perspective?
The thought had barely crossed her mind when Na'er shook her head vigorously to dismiss it. She patted her cheeks, trying to suppress the strange feeling in her heart, but a faint blush uncontrollably rose to her cheeks.
Lu Xingchen nodded slightly: "Na'er, I'll remember. See you again someday."
"Well, see you again sometime."
And so, Lu Xingchen left the Chuanling Hotel without incident.
Before leaving, he asked the hotel staff for a new set of clothes via landline, since he couldn't very well walk around in a bathrobe.
As for the cost? It was charged to the bill for Na'er's room.
After leaving the hotel, Lu Xingchen glanced back at the magnificent building behind him, a meaningful smile slowly curving his lips. He muttered to himself, "I guess I've gained something."
Although this incident was purely accidental, he had previously implanted virtual personalities into Na'er, Brigitte, and others through conversations.
In the spiritual sea of Murasaki.
These virtual personalities are like seeds; they don't take root and sprout immediately, but they subtly influence people's judgments and choices.
This can be considered an unexpected surprise.
"However, Na'er's situation—doesn't seem to be too good." Lu Xingchen raised his hand to brush away the stray hairs on his forehead, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.
He recalled the fleeting resentment and stubbornness in Na'er's eyes just now, and a plan quietly took shape in his mind.
"Perhaps I could create an accident," and give her something to protect herself. After all, she's half of the Silver Dragon King; if she were to be completely devoured by Gu Yue, all my previous efforts would have been wasted."
After all, a split Silver Dragon King is much more interesting than a whole Silver Dragon King.
Lu Xingchen didn't linger. He lifted his foot and walked towards Shrek Academy.
