Work Prophet

Lannita also noticed the brave falcon at this time, who, after dodging the giant dragon's attack, did not flee but instead, approached again and finally even landed on the giant dragon's back.

And the moment its feet touched the dragon's back, it transformed into a naked human male.

Lannita's eyes widened in surprise, "Ha, I did not see that coming. It seems you must be Prophet Merlin from the Double Rest Sect, right?"

Although the man in front of her was not wearing the signature black clothing, Lannita still guessed his identity.

Because apart from the legendary Prophet of the Double Rest Sect, she could not imagine who else would possess such a shocking way of appearing.

"To be honest, I didn't expect our first meeting to be so… candid," the girl said while unabashedly scrutinizing the man before her.

Li Yu, for his part, made no attempt to cover himself, having no choice, as he was on the dragon's back, with nothing available to cover himself, he might as well be generous.

"You should not have come here," declared the prophet of the Double Rest Sect.

"No, it is you who should not have come here," Lannita retorted with a slight smile, "The White Queen's temper is not so good, and anyone daring to climb onto its back without its permission must be prepared to face its wrath."

After she spoke, however, the White Dragon beneath her showed no reaction, even slowing its flying speed somewhat to reduce turbulence.

Lannita's expression changed slightly, and she reached out to pat the White Dragon's neck, uttering a series of strange syllables.

However, the White Dragon acted as if it heard nothing but glanced back at Li Yu on its back before turning forward to concentrate on flying.

Lannita raised her voice and repeated the syllables, but the White Dragon still showed no response.

It was not until Li Yu spoke up, uttering the words "land down."

Instantly, the White Dragon plunged downward toward the square below.

Because it descended so swiftly, Li Yu had to reach out and grab a dragon scale to stabilize himself before he looked up at Lannita, whose face had lost all traces of ease and mockery.

"Why, why would the White Queen obey your command?!" she demanded.

"Because it has felt the call of Saturday and from now on, it will become the guardian giant dragon of the Double Rest Sect," Li Yu stated calmly.

"What nonsense are you spouting?!" Lannita laughed in exasperation, "Only we from the Winged Tribe know how to make contracts with giant dragons."

Although she spoke this way, the girl knew something was off with the White Dragon at present, and clearly, it was all the doing of the man before her.

In other words, killing Merlin might allow the White Dragon to regain its senses.

Thinking this, the girl's hand had already touched the dagger at her waist.

But in the next moment, the giant dragon, which had been lying motionless on the ground, suddenly raised its head and let out a roar toward her!

Lannita felt a wave of hot air mixed with sulfur and the stench of putrefaction hit her face, causing her to involuntarily step back.

Afterward, the giant dragon turned its head again to look at Li Yu with an expectant gaze as if anticipating his praise

And the prophet of the Double Rest Sect did not disappoint it, giving it a thumbs-up, "Well done."

Lannita found the scene before her utterly absurd, still unable to comprehend why the White Dragon, which had always been obedient to her, had suddenly lost control and turned to the man before her.

However, there was one thing the girl was already certain of.

That was that she had been plotted against tonight. Yaxu had clearly betrayed his own people, approaching her above Black Stone City on purpose and providing false information.

Although Lannita had been cautious at the time and had not followed Yaxu's suggestion—instead, she had turned around and flown to Green Field—she still encountered the very person she least wanted to meet here.

Could it be that Merlin really had the power of prophecy?

Li Yu indeed possessed prophetic abilities, but they weren't so detailed; otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to have Yaxu wait by Black Stone City, nor to fabricate the lie about the Dragon Slayer Holy Artifact.

The whole purpose was to find an excuse to keep Lannita near Black Stone City, so that he could rush over as soon as he received the news, even considering the time when he would be absent.

However, Lannita's vigilance was indeed high, never fully trusting Yaxu, and even deciding on the spot to fly to Green Field.

However, coincidentally, she arrived on the very night Li Yu descended, sparing the Prophet of the Double Rest Sect even the journey to Black Stone City.

Moreover, even if Lannita had arrived when Li Yu was absent, the Prophet of the Double Rest Sect had prepared a backup plan. He would let the Lady find a way to feed the dumpling to the White Dragon.

Li Yu walked back to the ground alongside the dragon's wing, taking back the suit he had just removed from Jude's hands and putting it on again.

Miss Rabbit also rushed over from Teacup Castle at this time, and upon learning that Lannita and the White Dragon had appeared above Black Stone City, she had moved everyone inside the castle into the cellar.

Therefore, despite the considerable damage caused by the recent fire, it had not resulted in any casualties.

From a distance, the Lady called out, "Merlin, Merlin, you're not hurt, are you?"

Li Yu hummed in response, but then, Miss Rabbit's warhorse stopped in its tracks,

The pressure emitted by the giant dragon was too terrifying for other animals, and even the proud Sun King, driven by survival instincts, was unwilling to come close.

Thus, the Lady had to walk the last stretch by herself.

The White Dragon felt someone approaching, its gaze alert, squinting its eyes. Li Yu patted its wing and said, "It's all right, she's one of us."

The White Dragon's tension eased immediately, continuing to lie on the ground, one eye still on Lannita.

This scene of displaying affection in front of the original and the third party deeply shocked the nearby Female Winged Clan, leaving Lannita speechless for a long time.

Miss Rabbit walked up to the White Dragon and couldn't help but exclaim, "This dragon is really huge; no wonder Harvin and his followers all gave up resisting."

"By the way, I saw you talking to it just now, so can it understand us?"

"No," said the Prophet of the Double Rest Sect, "Currently, only I can communicate with it. Ah, those from the Wing Tribe probably also have some pre-agreed phrases, but they are likely just simple commands."

Li Yu's inherent translating abilities didn't extend to Dragon Language, and it was also possible that, like other wild beasts, dragons hadn't evolved a language yet.

In any case, the reason Li Yu could now command the White Dragon was only due to the effects of "Momotaro's dumpling," which Shi Yitong had tested before; this dumpling allowed the wild beast that consumed it to understand its master's commands.

Of course, the premise of understanding was first being able to hear, which was why Li Yu needed to stop on the dragon's back. The situation was urgent at the time; Lannita was about to order the White Dragon to attack the residential buildings below.

Li Yu had no choice but to intervene immediately.
