The black dragon paused. Must she be so direct?
“Your robes are not made out of dragon scales. They will be of no use, so you’ll have to take them off anyway!” Long Zhen said seriously.
“Oh...” The girl has already made the first move. The black dragon immediately took off all his clothes except for his pants. He stood there with his well-sculpted body exposed.
Long Zhen scanned his long pants and frowned “Take your pants off as well.”
“Well... This isn’t too good right?” The black dragon’s face flushed red. He subconsciously held on to the top of his pants. If he took it off too, he would be completely nude.
“Alright, leave it on then!” Long Zhen saw his unwilling expression and decided not to push him further. “Let’s begin!”
She reached her hand out toward him.
The black dragon’s entire body was red by now. His heart felt like it was going to jump out of his chest. He reached out for her soft and elegant hand with his own trembling one.
( Boxno vel. co m ) Long Zhen suddenly twisted her wrist, grabbing his wrist. Then, she gave it a strong flick.
Are? 1
?(°?°|||)
The black dragon felt a gust of wind blow past his ear. He was flying out of the area. He felt a strong dragon suppression which forced him back into his dragon form. Were all dragon ladies so straightforward?
There was no time for him to respond. A wave of hot air charged toward him. He instinctively looked down and found himself floating on top of a pool of lava. It was constantly bubbling and he was headed straight for it.
“Ah!” The black dragon shouted immediately. Momentarily, his mind was empty of all the skills and magic he knew.
What’s going on? He’s going to die, he’s going to die, he’s going to die...
Just before he dropped into the pool of lava, a blinding light shone onto him. He stopped just five inches from the pool, He heard a loud crash and everything around him seemed to be vibrating. Then, he spotted something coming up toward him from the pool of lava. It was a round thing that was rising up to the height of the array, stopping just beneath his hip.
The black dragon could not react at all. He felt like he had no control over his own body as it wrapped around the ball.
“It’s already late. You can familiarise yourself with its aura first.” From below, Long Zhen spoke with some worry in her tone. “Tomorrow, I will teach you the incubation technique. I hope you will work hard at it and save my son as soon as possible.
“...”
Incubation? What?
He looked down and saw his tummy pressing down on something white as snow. It was round and big, and it carried within it a weak dragon Qi. On top of it, there were layers of dragon prints. Is this a... dragon egg?!
(?_?)
Something in his mind clicked. The fanatic thoughts and fantasies in his mind had all disappeared. He was starting to realise...
She accepted him as a servant just to... incubate an egg? And it was her son at that!

Two hours later, in the front hall.
“Exalted Goddess...” A figure lunged for Shen Ying, who was sitting in the chair. He was wailing and looked absolutely devastated.
Shen Ying, who had just eaten five plates of fruits, jumped in shock. She instinctively raised her leg and used her foot to kick his face away, causing it to be buried in the ground. “What the hell?”
“Ouch, ouch, ouch... Exalted Goddess, it’s me! It’s me!” The man on the ground shouted desperately.
“Long Worm?” Shen Ying lifted her leg up and scanned the man who was dressed in untidy robes and who was at that moment lifting his face from the ground. How did he manage to get himself in such a state in the time she spent eating fruits? She glanced down at his pants – they were in tatters once again. Was it cooling this way?
“What’s the matter with you?”
The black dragon paused and suddenly remembered the heartbreaking news. He doubled over in sadness. “Exalted Goddess, Long Zhen – the Supreme Divinity – she... she... she doesn’t like me in the least bit. Wah wah wah...”
“Oh.” Whoever thought that she did?
The more he spoke, the sadder he got. He was almost all out of tears when he moved to hug Shen Ying’s legs for comfort. She kicked him away once again.
“She accepted me as her servant, just so that... so that... so that I can incubate her egg for her!”
“Oh.”
“She even told me to incubate the egg for four hours each day until it’s complete.”
“Oh.”
“I didn’t expect her to have an egg already. I have no chance. Wah wah wah... I’m heartbroken.”
“Oh.”
“I heard that the egg has been incubated for hundreds of thousands of years, yet it has not hatched. For all I know, I could be stuck here for tens of thousands of years – and it’s not even my child!”
“Oh.”
“That’s not it – that egg is big and heavy and it has some kind of special dragon aura in it. I’m not even the only dragon that has incubated the egg.”
“Er...” Did he even care about this?
“Exalted Goddess...” The black dragon’s heart sank further when he realised that Shen Ying had no words of comfort to offer him at all. “I’ve been gone for so long – don’t you have anything to say to me at all?” He looked up in utter sadness. Pleas for comfort, care and hugs were written all over his face.
Shen Ying pursed her lips and let out a long sigh. “Long Worm.”
“Yes.” This is not fair, not fair, not fair.
“Are you supposed to incubate a white egg?”
“Yes!” The black dragon started.
“It’s almost as big as you, and there are silver floral patterns on it?”
“Yes!” How did the Exalted Goddess know this?
“Well...” Shen Ying reached out and pointed to the door. “Does it look like that egg over there?”
Huh?
The black dragon turned around and saw that there was a huge egg rolling toward them at high speed.
“Dragon... D-D-Dragon egg!” The black dragon’s eyes widened. “Why is it.... Ah ya!”
Before he could finish speaking, the dragon egg hit him squarely in the chest. He was pushed out of the way as the dragon egg stopped right in front of Shen Ying.
Shen Ying scanned the egg from top to bottom.
It really is a huge egg!
The problem is...
“Long Worm.” She called as she knocked on the shell with her knuckles. With a straight expression, she asked, “Can this be eaten?”
This was such a familiar scene.
“...”
The black dragon took awhile to respond. He got to his feet and said, “Exalted Goddess, you must be joking.”
But how did this egg get here? He looked around but could not sense that there was anybody else’s aura around. “The dragon egg cannot leave the incubation pool for too long. We have to... Eh? Exalted Goddess, what are you doing? You’re still thinking of eating it?”
The black dragon quickly held on to Shen Ying, who was attempting to climb up the egg. He held back her two arms and said, “Exalted Goddess, I’m begging you. You can’t eat this, you can’t!”
Shen Ying, who was intending to knock a hole into the egg, asked, “Not even a bite?”
“Not even a bite!” This was someone else’s son, not an ordinary egg. “Wait! You can’t bite it, Exalted Goddess!”
Oh~
Suddenly, a familiar outraged voice sounded so that the ground vibrated.
“Who! Who stole my dragon child!”
The black dragon’s heart began to pound.. We’re finished!
From not far away, the figure of a huge red dragon charged up into the skies, illuminating the entire sky so that it all looked like a fiery red. Shortly after, many dragons began to fly up into the sky, looking for something.
That’s... Long Zhen!
We’re dead, we’re dead, we’re dead...
