This was the first time these spirit herbs saw such a fierce person; they were all shocked.

Just as he was about to rush toward the children, Feng Ruqing immediately blocked his way.

“Qing Han, Fu Chen, take these little spirit herbs and leave this place.”

“Alright…”

Qing Han and Fu Chen nodded and hurriedly ran over, leading the group of spirit herbs to leave.

“Get lost!”

Mu Yi threw his fist at Feng Ruqing.

In a flash, Nan Xian was already in front of Feng Ruqing. His long sword set off a gust of wind as it struck at Mu Yi.

Mu Yi dodged the attack and charged toward Feng Ruqing again; he became fiercer than before…

Not far away, the little girl stopped in her tracks, and she pointed to the dragon scale in Feng Ruqing"s hand, confused.

Qing Han turned and looked at the little girl. “You"ve seen that thing before?”

The little girl bit her lip and nodded.

“No, this was drawn by the Ninth Emperor at that time. Why have you seen it before? Mother"s memory doesn"t have you guys in it.”

‘Mother didn"t even know about this place…"

The little girl did not speak, and she quietly looked at the dragon scale in Feng Ruqing"s hands.

Suddenly, she lunged toward the dragon scale…

“Come back!”

Qing Han was shocked; countless vines surged from the air and swept toward the little girl.

However, this little girl was so fast that Qing Han did not have time to stop her. The little girl rushed toward Feng Ruqing.

She grabbed the dragon scale in Feng Ruqing"s hand and raised her gaze to look at Feng Ruqing.

Feng Ruqing"s face sank as she shouted, “Let go!”

The little girl looked stubborn. She pointed at the dragon scale in Feng Ruqing"s hand and pointed to herself.

Feng Ruqing"s face was slightly sunken. “You want it? No, I can"t give it to you.”

The little girl was anxious, but she did not know how to speak and could only look at Feng Ruqing with watery eyes.

Seeing that Nan Xian was no match for Mu Yi, Feng Ruqing pushed the little girl away and went toward Mu Yi.

The other children were also reluctant to leave, and all eyes were on the dragon scale in Feng Ruqing"s hand.

“Brother Fu Chen, these spirit herbs are so strange.” Qing Han c.o.c.ked her head. “Why do they keep wanting Mother"s dragon scale?”

“Qing Han…” Fu Chen was silent for a moment. “I heard Big Black mention this dragon scale… Mother"s spiritual qi made it, but it contains a real dragon scale left by the real dragon back then.”

“Do you still remember the Ninth Emperor"s background?”

Hearing Fu Chen say that, Qing Han fell silent.

The Ninth Emperor had once spoken to them about her background.

The reason why the spirit beasts welcomed the Ninth Emperor was that her mother was a spirit beast.

She was a dragon that had disappeared from the world.

There were many phoenixes on the mainland, but no one had ever seen a real dragon.

Big Black… Was not considered a dragon.

Big Black was a creature formed from the surrounding spiritual qi, and it chose to transform into a dragon.

Now, the dragon was only a legend.

“So, what they want may not be the current dragon scale, but the piece of real dragon scale wrapped within the spiritual qi!”

Qing Han fell silent.

She had almost forgotten about this… Fortunately, Fu Chen reminded her.

‘In this life, Mother"s parents are human. But a thousand years ago, the Ninth Emperor"s mother was a spirit beast!

‘She was a dragon!"
