Chapter 707: Waking Up
"Hey, you've finally revealed yourself," said the Demon Sovereign, with a cold laugh. Suddenly, the black mist surged and instantly solidified into the shape of a small person, surrounded by endless swirling dark clouds and vapors.
"Come on, let's have a three-hundred-round battle with your dragon grandpa," sneered the humble dragon, waving his tail and charging fiercely toward the small figure formed by the Demon Sovereign's black mist.
The jade light surged brilliantly, the dark clouds rippled and surged. Suddenly, at the spot where Lu Yun had been galloping and turning for ten zhang, it seemed as though he had vanished overnight—there was not a single trace of anything unusual, only the sounds of the dragon's roaring and thunderous cries. Lu Yun himself seemed to have simply disappeared into thin air, completely gone.
Dandan remained hidden at a distance and had not heard the conversation between the mysterious, awkward dragon and the Emperor of Magic. Yet at this moment, she began to hear strange sounds coming from behind her. Dandan covered her head, her mind now completely blank—any rustling caused by a small insect crawling through the grass made her hair stand on end. She was now so terrified that she could hardly breathe, yet she still kept thinking of Lu Yun’s safety. Time passed, and she didn’t know how long it had been until the strange sounds finally faded away. Gradually, her tense nerves relaxed. She longed to turn around and check on Lu Yun, but she was afraid of breaking the mysterious person’s rules and unintentionally causing Lu Yun to die. So she silently pleaded in her heart: Yun-ge, you will surely be fine. You will definitely be all right. This content is from Chapter 707 of "Rural Beauty."
"Little girl, come over here. That boy is already fine now."
Just when Dan Dan felt she was about to collapse, the mysterious and somewhat awkward dragon's voice finally echoed, yet it carried an unmistakable weariness. To Dan Dan, however, it sounded like a heavenly melody—so soothing and pleasant. Without pausing to wipe away her tears, she rose and rushed toward where Lu Yun was, calling out as she ran, "Cloud brother! Cloud brother!"
"Come this way," Lu Yun had been moved around so much that the dragon gently reminded Dan Dan.
Surveying the surroundings, Dan Dan spotted Lu Yun lying on the grass some distance away. She hurried over, quickly checking his condition—first feeling his breath, which was steady and strong, then placing her hand on his chest, where his temperature had returned to normal. Overwhelmed with joy, Dan Dan wept, then knelt down in front of the empty space, sobbing, "Thank you so much for saving Cloud brother. Whatever you'd like me to do, I will gladly do it."
"Ah, for this young man, I've already missed two opportunities. If you truly wish to repay me, then go and get closer to him often." The once-awkward, somewhat clumsy dragon now spoke with a tone that was both sincere and commanding. Dan Dan nodded. "Yes, I will. But could you come out so I can meet you personally? I'll have Yun-guo bow to you and thank you on my behalf." "Hmph, you want to see me? That's not so easy. Remember what I asked—spend time with this young man. Your pure, Yin energy is exceptionally pure and most beneficial to me."
"The mysterious, unassuming dragon clearly won its battle against the Lord of Magic, though from the sound of it, the victory was hard-fought and came at great cost—his voice was utterly weary. 'Young lady,' he said, 'don't rush to thank me yet. I asked you to grow closer to this clumsy boy—I don't mean that you should see each other often, but that you should frequently engage in the intimate acts between lovers. Did you catch that?' Upon hearing this, Dan Dan was suddenly struck dumb. Such an unusual request from this enigmatic figure—though he saved Yun's life, he now demanded something so personal. Had she and Yun's intimate moments in the willow grove been observed by him, scene by scene? The thought sent two warm blushes rushing to her cheeks. How could she possibly agree to such an intimate condition? As she hesitated to decline, she recalled what she had previously said to this mysterious guest, bit her lower lip firmly, and nodded vigorously: 'I accept.'"
"Wu Xi Long chuckled, 'You're quite good, remember not to tell this young man anything about me. If he asks, simply say he fell unconscious and then slowly recovered on his own. Make sure not to reveal a single word about me to him. That's all—I'm quite tired now and need to rest.' This was the text content from Chapter 707 of 'Rural Beauty.'
"Dan Dan, what on earth has happened? How did you and Lu Yun end up falling asleep here?" Ling Xiaoman gently stroked Wu Dan's wildly tousled hair with affection. "Now, don't cry—there's me here." Lu Yun had still not regained consciousness. Si Ma Xinrou knelt beside him, calling his name repeatedly, but Lu Yun showed no response. Si Ma Xinrou grew worried and, seeing Lu Yun's injured right hand, turned to Dan Dan with a look of confusion. "Dan Dan, what exactly happened? How did Lu Yun get hurt on his hand?" Under the continuous reassurances from Ling Xiaoman and Xiao Ying, Dan Dan stabilized her emotions, choked slightly, and recounted how Lu Yun had knocked over a poplar tree with a trunk as thick as a large bowl with one punch, then sustained a hand injury during the second blow—hiding the truth about their intimate activities. She then went on to describe in detail Lu Yun's changing condition, leaving Ling Xiaoman and the two women utterly astonished. "Lu Yun, Lu Yun, wake up..." Once Dan Dan had calmed down, Ling Xiaoman and Xiao Ying approached Lu Yun and began calling his name repeatedly.
"Xiao Ying, you three stay here— I'll go back and get some help to bring Lu Yun back." Although Lu Yun's breathing was steady, he had not woken up after being called for so long, and Ling Xiaoman was growing increasingly anxious. She gave Xiao Ying and the others a quick instruction before turning to head back to the village to summon assistance. "Uh... my head hurts so badly!" Just as Ling Xiaoman was about to turn and head back, Lu Yun suddenly opened his eyes, clutching his head and groaning in pain.
