Xu Lan rarely had dreams, especially after he got together with Bai Wu. When Bai Wu was a still a child, Xu Lan’s daily thoughts were how to take care of him, but after Bai Wu grew up, Xu Lan did not have the energy to dream because he was always being f*cked ¹ . At that moment, however, Xu Lan was dreaming while his mind was aware that it was a dream.

He dreamed of being wrapped in the embrace of Bai Wu’s dragon form. It was a dazzling sight from the top of the blue dome sky. Surrounding them were a multitude of dragons in green, black, and red. Some of them were cleaning Bai Wu’s scales, while others were fanning Xu Lan. There were even those who were stirring up incense in the censer.

Bai Wu felt as though Xu Lan was waking up, so he lifted his head and extended his tongue to lick Xu Lan’s cheek. Right when Xu Lan was about to give a scolding, two black dragons entered, bringing another black one with them. The sickly dragon looked familiar to Xu Lan, he stood up to take a closer look.

“Agh!” Raw pain started emanating from his backside, jolting him awake! “F*CK!”

Boy oh boy, Xu Lan was grimacing in pain while Bai Wu was sleeping like a log! Bai Wu’s posture was similar to that in the dream: he was all curled up and Xu Lan was sleeping in the coil of Bai Wu’s chest and head.

Upon hearing Xu Lan’s voice, Bai Wu opened his eyes hazily and asked, “You’re awake?”

Xu Lan was fuming so hard that it hurt his brain. He looked away and said nothing. The sound of sobbing and trembling were then heard coming from behind. Bai Wu quickly put on some clothes and hugged him while placing his jaw on his shoulder.

“I’m sorry. I couldn’t control myself.”

Xu Lan thought that Bai Wu was unable to control himself because of heated passion, but it was actually because Bai Wu changed unconsciously into his more comfortable dragon state as a result of being the in the dragon clan. Essentially, both were states of comfort, but their connotation was completely different. Moreover, Bai Wu had previously promised that a similar situation would never happen again!

“I don’t want to talk to you right now! You better stay away from me, I can’t promise that I won’t accidentally shoot you!” Xu Lan had a gloomy face when he spat out those words from the cracks between his teeth.

“… What kind of gun is that? Normal bullets cannot even penetrate a red dragon’s scales, but yesterday, it only took one shot from you to have the warrior dragons gasping for air,” Bai Wu asked when the subject of guns was brought up. Being an ice-based manipulator, each and every word that Bai Wu uttered at that time was cold and emotionless. His frostiness made Xu Lan’s blood curdle.

“I persuaded Qin Lao to do research on a new weapon. I didn’t expect it would work.” Xu Lan turned his head stiffly and replied somewhat diffidently.

“… Xu Lan. I sincerely hope you won’t interfere with the clan’s affairs, just as I did not interfere in your cases.” Bai Wu sighed and remarked imperatively.

“I, at that time… Okay.” Xu Lan wanted to explain at length, but in the end, he simply looked down and replied. He prepared for the worst before arriving there, but he could not take it when he saw Bai Wu’s condition the day before.

Just as Xu Lan wanted to protect Bai Wu, Bai Wu also wanted to protect Xu Lan. The problem was that the dragon clan were much stronger than humans. Xu Lan’s association with Bai Wu, though minimal, might result in the entire clan shifting their hatred toward Xu Lan if they were not able to defeat Bai Wu. If that happens, then…

“I’m going to save Tang soon. You wait here. If I don’t come back tonight, you, you have to go home. Do you understand?” Bai Wu turned Xu Lan’s body so they were facing each other. He then placed his hand on Xu Lan’s face.

“Like hell, I will!” Xu Lan slapped Bai Wu’s hand, which caused even his own face to turn red.

“What are you doing!” A heartbroken Bai Wu pulled Xu Lan into his embrace. He took a look at Xu Lan’s face and released Xu Lan only after he was sure that it was nothing serious.

“I want to go too.”

“Don’t argue. I will return tonight. My strength here can be raised to its maximum. They won’t be able to win against me.” Bai Wu searched the bag for a good long time and finally found a dog-skin plaster, which he applied to Xu Lan’s face.

“Bai Wu! Can you treat me normally? Even though I may not be as strong as all of you, I’m still a man! I can share your burden! Don’t tell me you’ve never once thought of bringing me into your world?” Xu Lan was finally able to understand the suffering Bai Wu felt when he treated the latter as a kid! At that point, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Bai Wu may be looking at him as though he was an infant!

“I’ve thought of it before! There’s not a single moment I don’t wish to present you to Bai Ling and let all the clan members know that you are my partner! But it can’t be done now!” Bai Wu disregarded Xu Lan’s anger and simply went up to kiss the plaster before getting up to leave.

“I want to follow you. Right now. I can’t stand all the f*cking waiting that I have to do here.” Xu Lan laughed in spite of the anger and replied insipidly. By then, the gun capable of killing giant dragons was raised atop his head.

“…”
