Chapter 949 -946: Rejecting the Bootlicker (Fourth Update, 10,000 Coins Reward Congratulations 24/147)

The great Biggleswade, carrying the great Seki, flew through the sky and headed straight for the backside of Jade Mountain, where the Light Green Gem Dragon Ethan’s Dragon Nest was located.

The Dragon Nest wasn’t much decorated, only filled with the Crystal Alsophila spinulosa that Ethan dearly loved.

The cultivation of Crystal Alsophila spinulosa had already succeeded, but its growth was restricted by its need to draw Magic Power to grow, and ordinary Magic Fertilizer simply couldn’t meet the demands of the Crystal Alsophila spinulosa. However, planting them on Jade Mountain killed two birds with one stone, since there were abundant jade fragments here.

These fragments, lying somewhere between jade and rock, were difficult to use, so they were simply all used to cultivate the Crystal Alsophila spinulosa.

The roots of the Crystal Alsophila spinulosa could powerfully absorb the Magic Power from the jade fragments, thus it grew very vigorously. In less than half a year, it had already become a forest carved out of crystal.

Ethan lived surrounded by the encircling Crystal Alsophila spinulosa, being very careful not to damage any of them—he always felt that these beautiful little trees were like extensions of his own body, and so he cherished them greatly. He usually slept on a small, flattened hilltop.

At this moment, he was basking in the sunlight, half-squinting his eyes, watching the beautiful Crystal Alsophila spinulosa sparkling with various colorful glows under the sunlight.

Next to his neck was a pool of wine, inside which was brewing the latest formula of Bone Burning Wine.

Among foods, it favored Bone Burning Wine most.

Delicious and not intoxicating.

Suddenly sensing something, Ethan lifted his head and saw a familiar silhouette flying towards him from the distant horizon—it was the Formless Dragon Bard. He didn’t like this grass-eating dragon because it smelled bad, but he knew Bard wouldn’t approach his Dragon Nest casually unless Liszt was coming.

A new Knight?

He didn’t move and waited until cries of tiny ants came from the other side of Jade Mountain. Then Ethan lifted his head and stood up, lazily welcoming Liszt’s arrival—with a dragon’s pride, without the suppressive effect of Mind Branding, he would never do something so demeaning as to greet a human.

“Ethan, long time no see,” a clear voice came from the sky.

Following that, a silvery-white figure jumped down from Bard’s back, followed closely by a gray figure. This was undoubtedly Liszt in his Wrath of Thunder armor, accompanied by Emily in grey Magical Beast Leather Armor.

“Roar!”

Ethan greeted, allowing Liszt to mount his back and quickly move up to the Dragon Tooth Platform to enter Dragon Rider Mode. With hearts and minds connected, all intentions became clear.

“Roar!”

Ethan nodded, turning his dragon eyes to look at Emily standing aside, her figure straight. In his hundreds of years of dragon life, he had never encountered a Female Dragon Knight—in fact, he had hardly seen any Female Sky Knights.

“Emily, say hello to Ethan,” Liszt jumped down from the dragon’s back.

Emily instantly stepped forward, took a deep breath, and looked straight into Ethan’s eyes, “Hello, Ethan, I am Emily, and I will be training with you for the coming period. I hope we can recognize each other.”

Hmph.

Ethan snorted through his nostrils, noncommittal.

Although he had heard from Liszt that he was to get a new Knight, and years of Dragon Riding had accustomed him to changing Knights, he was somewhat eager for a new Knight—he and Liszt were not compatibly aligned; it was entirely by coincidence that they had become Partners.

However, until Emily gained his approval, he was not going to show her any favor.

Liszt, sensing Ethan’s disdain for Emily, stepped forward, patting Emily on the shoulder, saying, “Ethan’s nobility and pride require you to gradually impress him. Remember the qualities I told you about—bravery, fearlessness, strength, loyalty, boldly demonstrate these qualities!”

“Yes, Your Highness!”

“Then you shall stay here for the time being, and I will personally come to check the results of your coordination with Ethan in three days,” Liszt said with a slight smile.

His warm smile filled Emily with boundless confidence.

Only after Liszt had left with the Formless Dragon Bard did Emily truly face the Light Green Gem Dragon Ethan, who had resumed his dozing.

She recalled the truth Liszt had once told her—those who overly flatter others end up with nothing.

So she openly said, “Ethan, perhaps you do not understand me yet. I come from a serf background, and only started practicing Dou Qi at the age of eleven. By twelve, I became an Earth Knight…”

Ethan remained lazily unresponsive.

Emily continued, “A few months later, I killed two knights on the battlefield and became an Elite Earth Knight. Just as I turned fourteen, my Dou Qi surged wildly one day, and I rose into the sky, becoming a Sky Knight…”

It seemed that Ethan still had no reaction.

But Emily kept talking, “Within two months, I defeated a veteran Sword Saint and earned the title of Thunderous Sword Saint. I am still fourteen, but my training progresses quickly, becoming a Completion Level Sky Knight is within reach, perhaps next year, or even by the end of this year!”

Ethan slightly lifted his eyelid and let out two snorts of air, as if to say, “So what, I’ve seen all sorts of freaks in my life.”

Seeing this, Emily spoke aloud, “I may not be the first person on Legendary Continent to become an Earth Knight or a Sky Knight, but I am definitely the earliest to do so as a woman, and I am destined to be the first female Knight on Legendary Continent to become a Dragon Knight! Ethan, the legend is right before you, let us create it together!”

After speaking, she looked earnestly at Ethan.

And Ethan opened his dragon mouth.

With Emily full of anticipation, he yawned seriously, then completely closed his eyes and started napping, soon emitting slight snores.

This was a profound humiliation.

However, Emily felt only slightly disappointed before quickly adjusting her mindset, practicing her Dou Qi beside him, “His Highness said that Dragon Riding requires strategy; mere flattery doesn’t increase the success rate. One must show the dragon valuable qualities in the knight.”

She held her great sword, thinking of Liszt’s shining qualities—handsome, extraordinary talent, outstanding temperament, bravely fearless, an embodiment of justice, and so many more.

But the decisive quality was what Liszt had personally told her—”overtaking forcefully.”

“I can’t match His Highness’s dominance, but I have my own shining quality—diligence. I will make Ethan see my determination, and ultimately become my mount, fighting alongside me!”

…

Liszt departed gracefully.

He wasn’t worried about Emily’s chances of successfully riding the dragon; even he envied the young girl’s talents, but what was even more terrifying was her near-lethal determination to become stronger. As long as Ethan wasn’t blind, there was no way he could overlook Emily.

He now turned his attention to a message that he had just received.

The message came from Black Horse Island. The ship fleet of the Eagle Royal Family had already reached the port, bringing a Dragon Elf as ransom to redeem Duke Grey Iron Piero Grey Mouth Iron—originally, they had demanded the Grey Iron Family change their surname, but Piero cleverly offered information about the Mountain Copper Dragon instead.

Liszt then abandoned the demand.

After all, Duke Piero had already secretly pledged his allegiance to him.
