Chapter 347 Meeting with the Dragon

Jinxia City, outside the lobby of the Privy Council of the Affairs Bureau.

Compared with other departments, this place was originally a relatively deserted place. Unless there was a major evil case, ordinary small demons and ghosts would not usually be reported to the Privy Council for resolution. But today, the road from the square to the porch was full of people. The heads and clerks of various departments all knew that Xia Fucheng would meet a special guest here.

It was no longer important who spread the news, but the guest himself.

"Auntie Yan...?"

Yan Qing suddenly heard a familiar voice. She turned around and saw that it was Li who had not seen her for more than half a month. At the same time, she noticed that the other party was not wearing the gauze hat, but generously showing her ears, and the same was true for her tail.

"When I heard the news that you went to Jinxia, ​​I was still a little bit unbelievable." Li said as he moved closer, "I didn't expect you to really come back."

The moment she saw the fox demon, Yan Qing realized that she now had a weakness in her heart.

Her face seemed to have a similar look to her friend.

"I didn't plan to come so soon." Qing Jian smiled bitterly, "Unfortunately, there was an accident on the way."

"So you really met a dragon?" Li asked in a low voice.

"Let's just think so." She said without comment, "I have only heard of dragons in folk legends. After all, few people would regard such creatures as monsters."

Yan Qing now understood why the Xu State Privy Council did not notify the Qi State when it was clearly about arresting monsters.

This even made her doubt a little. Can the Seven Stars really put aside their prejudices and build a joint capital without barriers?

"Since it is a dragon, why did you find Jinxia City?" Li was puzzled.

"She said that her purpose was..." Yan Qing suddenly stopped halfway through, and the scene after Chi Yi flew into the sky appeared in her mind--

Xia Fan obviously noticed the team on the ground and guided Olina to land.

Yan Qing naturally also briefly described her own situation.

After learning that the golden dragon just now was not hostile, Xia Fan decisively asked her to take the dragon to the Privy Council, saying that he would meet the other party there.

It was not until he had walked for a long time that Chi finally came out of the clouds and fell back to the ground.

And theoretically, judging from the speed she had just flown into the sky, it was obviously not necessary to spend so much time circling back.

At that time, Yan Qing realized that Chi also recognized the man on the dragon's back as the one who caused trouble in Shangyuan City, but for some reason, she did not choose to meet him immediately.

As for Chi's reaction later, it was even stranger.

"You-are you familiar with that person?"

The other party glared.

"Are you talking about Xia Fan? It's okay." Yan Qing considered, "He robbed the Privy Council Prison in Shangyuan City, and the person he saved was me."

The sense of majesty disappeared from Chi for a short time.

She opened her mouth, but could not finish a sentence for a long time. Finally, she said hesitantly, "What I told you before... You didn't tell him, did you?"

"No. I think it's easy to be biased when telling, not to mention that it's something like finding a husband, which should be told by you in person-"

"Okay, okay!" She interrupted suddenly, "Just pretend I never mentioned it."

- It was because of the other party's abnormal reaction that Yan Qing changed her words halfway through her speech and said, "Actually, I don't quite understand. Maybe after Xia Fan talks to her, the answer will be clear."

"That's right, it's a real dragon after all." Li sighed.

The only species that can compare with it in terms of fame are Qilin, Phoenix, Kunpeng, which also only exist in legends.

She suddenly shook her ears towards the door, "Here she comes."

With the help of a group of Qi-sensing people, the woman walking in the center became the focus of everyone's attention.

Chi was unmoved.

She strode into the lobby of the Privy Council amid the whispers of the crowd.

Then the door closed, isolating the whispers outside.

…

"Please take a seat."

In the lobby, Xia Fan pointed to the other end of the long table and greeted them warmly.

In fact, it was he who spread the news of the meeting with Long.

After an urgent discussion with Ning Wanjun, Xia Fan thought that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Dragons always appeared as auspicious signs in folk rumors. Now that the real dragon appeared in Jinxia City, it would be of great help in consolidating people's hearts and promoting publicity. Especially when Ning Wanjun took action to annex various places in Shenzhou, it was inevitable that there would be rumors of treason and rebellion. If the other party was willing to stand on the side of Jinxia City, it would undoubtedly greatly reduce the adverse effects of these rumors.

"Your Highness, she's here."

"Hiss..." After a burst of noise, the voice of the third princess came from the loudspeaker, "Miss Chi, right? I am Ning Wanjun, the ruler of Jinxia City, and also known as Princess Guangping. Welcome to the capital of Shenzhou."

Since it was not a regular conversation, the etiquette could only be temporarily simplified. Xia Fan decided to let Ning Wanjun speak first to introduce herself.

Chi and Kong Xuanzi who accompanied him were both shocked.

There was only Xia Fan sitting opposite the long table, but they did hear the voice of another person, and from the content, it was definitely not a pre-prepared speech, but a real-time conversation!

"Your Highness is still fighting on the front line, about dozens of miles away from here, so this is the only way to talk." Xia Fan explained, "If you want to say something, just speak directly. Your Highness can hear your voices."

"Hello... Princess." Chi tried to reply, "My name is Chi, and I come from Penglai Island in the West Sea."

"Hey... I've heard Xia Fan mention your situation." Ning Wanjun's voice sounded again after a delay, "I have entrusted him with full responsibility for this reception, and his subsequent statements and promises will also be my intentions."

I can actually hear it!

And during this process, Chi did not see the other party use any magic.

Is this also progress in the new era?

Miss Long suddenly felt that her momentum was inadvertently weakened a little, which made her frown slightly. Sure enough, few humans who can sit firmly in a high position are easy to deal with.

She leaned back in her chair and turned her eyes back to Xia Fan, "It seems that you can tolerate the existence of monsters just like the rumors say."

"Although I don't know where you heard this news from, rumors are often unreliable." Xia Fan replied frankly, "I don't need to tolerate monsters - because I think they should have the same right to survive as the world."

"I have to say, I haven't heard such a view for a long time." Chi nodded slightly to show his approval - appropriate praise can make himself take the initiative in the conversation, "It's a pity that there are very few people like you. I'm afraid that the world does not accept the existence of aliens around them."

"In fact, change is not that difficult. At least in Jinxia City, I have issued a notice that both humans and monsters can settle down in the city. If they violate the law, they should be treated equally."

Chi said with some surprise, "Announce to the whole city? You should know the attitude of the Privy Council."

Xia Fan smiled slightly and said, "Knowing, but it doesn't mean that you have to blindly follow it even if you know it is wrong. Standing up and opposing is our attitude."

Kong Xuanzi behind him was so moved that he almost cried.

Five years... After searching for five whole years, I finally found an independent place in the six lands that was not controlled by the Privy Council. Lord Chi's wish finally had a chance to come true.

He immediately found the young man opposite him more pleasing to the eye.
