Holy Great Dragon, Starting from Gene Evolution - Chapter 35

“Where have you been all these days? Why did you only come back?”

Facing the Elven Queen’s question, Ye Chen paddled helplessly and turned around to swim toward Eudora.

Initially, he had wanted to ask why a pretty boy had come back from the Holy Land after all these days.

But, unexpectedly, the Elven Queen was one step ahead of him and asked him about it.

Seeing Ye Chen floating to her side, Eudora smiled and held him in her arms, gently helping him to clean his scales.

Ye Chen comfortably leaned on her smooth, melon-like ball, feeling very comfortable.

He knew that if he turned into a human in the future, he would not have the chance to bathe with the Queen and the others.

Therefore, he significantly cherished the ‘good times’ right now.

The war had already ended in the afternoon.

After that, the whole Holy Land held a massive funeral, burying all the dead Elven Warriors.

The Queen and Ye Chen hosted a ‘summing-up meeting’ before they finally had some time to relax.

The three of them were all covered in blood during the war, so naturally, they came to wash up right away.

At this moment…

Seeing that Ye Chen did not answer her, the Elven Queen even ran into Eudora’s arms to enjoy herself.

She subconsciously lowered her head and looked at her round body.

Then, she chased after Ye Chen with complete confidence. Finally, she grabbed Ye Chen’s tail and pulled him to her side.

“What’s so good about being so big? Also, why do I feel like your color has changed? What happened in the past few days?”

The Queen asked curiously as she pushed Ye Chen into the water and rubbed him hard.

In the past, when they were taking a bath, Ye Chen had been very well-behaved, lying on the side in a daze.

But today, as soon as he got into the water, he jumped into his arms and rubbed his head like a bit of dog.

Just now, he had even buried his head into Eudora’s arm, looking like he was enjoying it.

Ye Chen forced his head out of the water and explained, “It has been a long time since I last saw you guys. I have missed you guys! I am just a small lizard. What bad thoughts could I possibly have?”

The Queen looked at him suspiciously.

Then, she patted his head twice and said, “You are right. Tell us, what happened to you in the past few months? Why have you become so much stronger? And what is that holy light human shadow?”

Being held in the Queen’s arms, Ye Chen could only adjust his body to make himself more comfortable.

Just like that, he floated on the surface of the water and started to tell her about what had happened after he left.

Of course, Ye Chen did not tell her about ‘taming’ the Saintess and asking her to go back as a spy.

He only said that he had broken into a ruin and devoured a few guardian beasts there.

As for that human form of holy light, it was only his new ability.

Queen Aria and Eudora were naturally listening with great interest.

When they heard that Ye Chen had risked his life to fight against powerful demonic beasts several times, their hearts tightened.

When they heard that he had gained a new ability and became even stronger, they were happy for him.

Soon, Ye Chen had finished talking about his matters.

With the Elf Queen’s soft and smooth head on his head, he asked, “Oh right, when is that pretty boy leaving?”

“Pretty boy?”

“That Orlando!”

The Elf Queen made an ‘oh’ sound before pouting, “They should be leaving tomorrow. Oh right, that Prince even proposed to me! So annoying!”

“What!?”

Ye Chen lied down in front of the Queen’s chest in anger. He raised his purple-gold triangular head and asked with a fierce expression, “You didn’t agree with him, did you?”

Aria reached out her small hand and pushed him down. She then shook her head, “How could I agree?”

Ye Chen responded with a satisfied ‘hmm’.

“That’s more like it!”

Aria lifted up the little lizard Ye Chen, who was already more than seventy centimeters long.

She smiled and asked, “What? You are just my Saint Beast. Are you going to interfere in my marriage too?”

Ye Chen nodded naturally.

“Of course! If the spouse you find in the future does not get my approval, I will eat him up!”

Aria nodded.

“Hmm, someone who can not get the approval of the Saint Beast is indeed not worthy to be my husband!”

Then, the three chatted for a while in the fluorescent bathroom.

It was not until the night was completely dark that Aria carried Ye Chen back to her bedroom.

The kennel had been demolished by the Queen a long time ago. It was also next to her own room, which had been specially opened for Ye Chen.

Everything inside had been arranged.

However, Ye Chen was not stupid. How could he really go and live alone?

After lazing on the Queen’s bed for a while…

The Queen had no choice but to hold it in her arms.

“Huh! Since you insist on staying here, then just be my pillow!”

Although Ye Chen looked reluctant, he was actually very happy in his heart.

Although he could not do anything out of the ordinary with his current body…

However, being held in the Queen’s arms was also a very enjoyable thing.

However, right now, he was not in the mood to enjoy it.

Instead, he said to Aria, who was forcing a smile, “Alright, Aria, there is no one else here. If you want to cry, then just cry to your heart’s content…”

The corner of the Queen’s mouth twitched. She sniffled and said stubbornly, “Why… why should I cry?”

Ye Chen sighed and did not say anything. He only stretched out his paw and patted her little head.

The Queen wrapped her arms around him and slowly tightened them.

Then, she put her head on the scale under Ye Chen’s neck and started to sob.

As the Queen sobbed, the whole Shadow Forest seemed to feel her sadness.

Countless raindrops fell from the sky, covering the whole forest.

Gradually, the Queen’s sobbing became louder and louder.

“Little purple… I… I am an incompetent queen…”

“Do you know how many of our family members died today?”

“218 people! 218 uncles and aunts who watched me grow up, brothers and sisters all died in battle!”

“This Elven Queen of mine is really useless! Sob sob sob sob sob sob…”

Ye Chen’s neck was soon wet by the Queen’s tears.

A light flashed on Ye Chen’s body, and the human-shaped holy light appeared once again. He stretched out both of his hands and gently hugged the Queen’s body.

Gently stroking her head and her bright golden hair, he comforted her in a soft voice, “Aria, you have done well…”

Aria was in a state of extreme sadness, so she did not have much of a reaction to Ye Chen’s change.

She buried her head in Ye Chen’s chest and hugged him tightly, crying out loud.

After crying for a while, she finally fell asleep under Ye Chen’s comfort.

Ye Chen looked at her in her sleep, still sobbing gently, and felt a bit sorry for her.

He had purposely put on a lewd look today, but it was just to comfort the Queen, to tease her, and make her feel less sad.

But today, 218 Elves had died in the Shadow Holy Land.

Especially the Guardians, who had lost more than half of their lives!

After all, the entire Shadow Holy Land, including the old and the young, only had about a thousand people.

With such a huge loss, how could the Queen, Aria, not be sad?

But, she knew that if she cried in front of others, it would not only be useless but would also make the whole Holy Land fall into sorrow.

That was why she had managed to hold on until now…

Ye Chen carefully got off the bed.

Only now did his face turn completely dark….
