Chapter 29
Lilith and Li Liu witnessed an exaggerated scene in the center of the ruined city, causing all the girls to stop in their tracks and hide under a partially collapsed building. Perra leaned against the corner wall, her whole body covered in cold sweat, her crimson eyes flashing, even her vampire fangs involuntarily showing, the bulging veins on her hand back making her seem fearful. Lilith looked at her, prodding her sister's shoulder.
"What's wrong with her? Has her blood lust flared up? Didn't Bengyang cure them?"
Nana impatiently glanced outside, leaving Lilith bewildered, ruffling her hair.
"Lilith, didn't you forget that the vampire queen is the closest to their ancestors? So she is the closest to the original dragon race, and with two real dragons fighting in front of her, how could she not be afraid?" Li Liu explained to her.
"No way, why was the three-headed dragon fine just now?"
"It's... it's the white metallic dragon... she... clashed with the royal power, they... fought fiercely, the ones suffering... are just us bystanders." Perra struggled to stand up.
"I've heard of the dragon's royal power, who is the white one, who did Bengyang summon?"
"The royal power of this dragon is 'Fearless Guardian,' as the name suggests, she will definitely be able to protect Qin Yang's safety, but attacking may not be very effective. Qin Yang may still need some help. Hurry and go, I can't help much, don't worry about me." Perra hoped the other girls could catch up in time, suggesting that they leave first.
"'Fearless Guardian'? Perra, sister, tell us what it is." Lilith asked, curious.
Perra took a break, speaking without gasping, but in a weak voice.
"According to shared memories, the True Ancestor once heard from the Demon Dragon that the only time the Dragon Maiden appeared in dragon form was in an era several times earlier than the Divine Demon War. The Demon Dragon used some means to deliver a deadly blow to the Holy Dragon, and the one who saved the Holy Dragon was the Fearless Guardian. The Demon Dragon did not harm the Holy Dragon in the slightest. It is said that as long as the Dragon Maiden maintains the protection over the dragon carcass, she will not disappear, but at the same time, due to the maintenance of the protective power, she will lose most of her attacking power. Unable to defeat the enemy, she can only give up in the end."
"Oh... Wow? So the president is..." Lilith pointed incredulously at the magnificent white metallic dragon, who was Elena, but then again, the dragon surrounded by five giant floating objects looked a lot like Elena controlling five conical shapes.
"Elena?" Li Liu looked outside from the rubble, with fireballs falling sporadically, ravaging this poor island city for the second time.
"Oh... here we go again." Perra was in great pain, so Li Liu decided to act immediately.
"Nofice, can you teleport all of us to Qin Yang's side?"
Nofice had been quiet all night, not saying a word, indicating that she had been in a battle-ready state of indifference.
"The master does not allow teleportation."
"He doesn't allow it? That's so troublesome, Nofice, aren't you able to teleport on your own?" Li Liu recalled several times when Nofice had not used Magic without any orders from Qin Yang.
"First, the master refuses transfer. Second, the master now has no magic power. Third..."
"What? Qin Yang has lost his magic again? Then why is he up there fighting?" Lilith couldn't sit still after hearing that Qin Yang had no magic power and was still in battle, she wanted to rush over immediately.
"Calm down, listen to what Nofice says about the third, and Perra has assured that the Fearless Defense will absolutely keep him safe," Hanya quickly advised her, urging her to listen calmly.
"Third, I can only take one person through the transfer."
Li Liu covered her mouth and giggled. Indeed, Nofice was still Nofice, and she still had her own thoughts as an Angel familiar.
"Who's going?"
At first glance, the girls all looked at Li Liu, unanimously recognizing that Li Liu was the most reliable girl after the former president Elena.

Bright light shone in front of me, the magma beside me no longer spewed out, slowly flowing into the sea, turning the entire seabed a dark red.
"Wow? This is... the Fearless Defense Light!" Connected to my body by five giant floating objects, this magic applied to me felt familiar, a memory of being attacked and protected, creating a dreamlike sensation of overlapping memories.
"Qin Yang! Look ahead," Elena reminded me in Dragon Language.
"So beautiful, you are the most beautiful dragon I have ever seen, Lita Aurelia." The Fire Dragon Hirleofi did not rush to attack, instead beginning to converse with Elena.
"You seem to know me, but there is no dragon here that remembers you, Hirleofi, and no dragon that disrupts the Dragon Realm that you are looking for. Please leave."
"The dragons of this world are absurdly forgetful, as if nothing has ever happened, impressive."
"We have no dragons that remember you, so perhaps you should tell us, how?"
"What a waste of time!"
The Fire Dragon Hirleofi called out, the Dragon Language Magic suppressing the fiery energy, pulling something from the distant horizon.
"Not content with erupting volcanoes, now they're pulling meteorites?" I could see a kilometer-wide meteorite, unsure of what was on it, but it was another disaster looming.
"I, Hirleofi, know that the Guardian Dragon of the Sacred Object once made a mistake, the time when news of her death spread throughout the Dragon Realm, and since there was a first time, there will be a second time."
"‘He wants to break the Fearless Defense Light.’ Elena informed me through our bond.
‘This guy might not be persuaded to leave, I may be fine, but what about you?’
‘I...’
‘Elena, my body can temporarily not withstand the power of the Dragon Soul, making it difficult to fight, so why don't you give up the Fearless Defense Light, make a desperate attempt – with the Dragon Body you have now, you can try.'
‘It's impossible, the floating objects around me are the Aurelia Shield, they will not easily succumb to Hirleofi's meteorites.’
Elena controlled the shield to form a single entity, ready to defend against any attack.
‘But...'
‘If you die, I die; if we die, all the girls will perish together, as you said, apart from you and me, the other girls in the Student Council have only memories of a few years. They cannot end their lives like this!’
"You guys are discussing something quite serious!" Li Liu's figure appeared about two hundred meters away from us, jumping out of a spatial Magic portal, twirling in mid-air before landing perfectly on Elena's Dragon body.
"Notice! My command to you is not to teleport anyone to my side." I glared at Nofice, who was causing trouble again.
"Master, she appeared 200 meters away from you, not by your side."
"Ah, who taught you to split hairs like this again."
Buzz! A deafening sound pierced our eardrums, as a yellow blast of cannonfire entered the battlefield, catching even Qisiluo off guard.
"This is the energy of the dragon clan! Are there dragons too?" I felt that the energy of this cannonfire resembled that of the dragon clan, but lacked vitality, like that of deceased dragons.
"Main cannon carrier." Li Liu explained.
"Is Father back?"
"Qin Ying's main cannon carrier is in the waters of Othrie, with a range reaching the heartland of Lanhan."
"That's still not enough. Li Liu, lend me your power."
Li Liu handed me an earring, saying, "If that's not sufficient, artificial elements may have an effect."
"Situ... Liyao."
Buzz! The main cannon carrier fired again, as Elena's shield slowly changed shape, the power of the dragon soul gathered, coordinating with the main cannon carrier's attack to prevent Qisiluo from further pulling the meteorite.
I held Li Liu and said, "This time, lend me the Ice Mirage Pupil!"
"Huh?" Li Liu didn't understand, but the sudden kiss left her stunned.
