FORSAKEN IMMORTALS

Chapter 295: Dragon Girl



Chapter 295: Dragon Girl

The little creature was still a child, its figure was lithe, and it tried to curl itself into a ball when it realized that it was caught.

The body was a mixture of a human and a dragon, but unlike Xiao Long, the scales were beautifully blue, and the body was more human. The basic figure seemed human, but a pair of beautifully coral-like horns were on the top of the head, and a long tail was curled around the small body in an attempt to protect itself.

The beautiful blue scales were covering the entire tail, and also left scales on the top of the arms and face. It was a breathtakingly beautiful little thing, and although it seemed fierce, Bai Rouyun could not help but feel a strange familiarity with the way it was acting.

The way this small creature was curled up and waiting for a beating was similar to how she had been waiting to be hit after getting caught stealing food as a child.

"Can you understand what I say?"

Bai Rouyun had no intention of harming the small thing, but she did not let it run away either. Xiao Hua kept a hold of the little beastman, but she still gently asked if it was okay.

Previously, she might have been eager to adopt another child, but right now she was more curious about the origin of this small thing, and wanted to know where it came from.

Her voice was gentle, but this caused the small figure to tremble even more than before, and it was clear that it feared her actions. Bai Rouyun was uncertain as to how to calm down the small thing. She had experienced the despair and fear that came when one was caught and knew that a beating was on the way, so she was not likely to be able to talk sense into the thing for now.

Instead she gently sat down by the side of the little thing and reached out her hand to caress its long white hair. The hair was beautiful and it resembled moonlight as it reflected the light from the campfire.

Her gentle touch made the small body flinch in fear, but the hand that kept stroking the hair was much more gentle than anything this little thing had ever experienced before.

Slowly, the gentle touch calmed the emotions of the creature, and the little thing lifted its head. Due to the young age, it had been impossible to determine the gender, but as the head was lifting, Bai Rouyun noticed that it was a little girl.

Her big doe-like eyes were full of confusion and sadness, but the beauty within could not be ignored. She looked like a small porcelain doll, and Bai Rouyun instantly felt her heart melting.

"Do you understand me? I come from another world and just ascended to the Wushi Continent."

Bai Rouyun knew that the majority of the Wushi Continent spoke the same language as she did, but she could not help but wonder if the little girl was scared of someone here on the continent, so she wanted to ensure that if she could understand her words, so that she would know that Bai Rouyun would not harm her.

The beautiful eyes of the cute dragon girl seemed to tremble slightly as she looked deeply into Bai Rouyun's calm ones. The gentleness inside was so foreign to this little girl that she was almost more afraid of such emotions than those who disdained and beat her.

She knew how to close off her heart against the hardships of the world, but if someone suddenly treated her tenderly, she was at a loss for the future.

"I... I understand."

Although the little girl was feeling scared and hesitant, the encouragement within Bai Rouyun's eyes still managed to make her answer.

It was, however, clear that she had not spoken for a very long time. Although she was young, her voice did not have the tenderness and childishness that one would expect of a young girl, instead it was hoarse and low. The words were also hard to pronounce and it was clear that she was unfamiliar with speaking.

"My name is Bai Rouyun. I came from the world below, and I am looking for my husband. He arrived at the Wushi Continent before I did, but I somehow got lost on the way.

"The one who has caught your feet is my cute little flower, her name is Xiao Hua. The other one over there is Xiao Mao. Although he might look strict and stubborn, he is actually really soft-hearted and gentle.

"I also have two other companions, but they can't come out right now. Why don't you come to the campfire with us to sit down? Your clothes are not in a good condition, I can help you find something more suitable."

Bai Rouyun was speaking gently to the little dragon girl in her arms. When she noticed the fear that had been there earlier, she felt as if her motherly instinct had overflown as she remembered her own hardships. She wanted to help this little girl.

Even if the girl had no intentions to stick around, Bai Rouyun still wanted to give her at least a few sets of clothes. If she had nowhere to go, then she should just travel alongside them, as they would not suffer from having one more companion.

The young dragon girl looked at Bai Rouyun and noticed that she was genuine and sincere. She did not seem to be hiding any evil thoughts, so after considering for a bit, the small girl nodded her head.

Bai Rouyun smiled sweetly and carried the small girl in her arms as she went back to the warm side of the campfire. She willed a few blankets out of the Primal Pagoda Dimension and made Xiao Mao place them on the ground, before she put down the young girl and took out a few dresses.

These dresses were originally made for Xiao Jin, but Xiao Jin had countless sets of clothes in the dimension, so she had hurriedly found a few of her favorites to give Bai Rouyun and this younger sister.

Xiao Jin was a very gentle soul, and when she noticed the poor dragon girl and her condition, she could not help but shed tears. The beautiful blue scales and the coral-like horns deserved to be dressed up, so while picking dresses, Xiao Jin had intentionally picked those that would suit the younger child.
