Chapter 576: 573, “Giant Panda” Su Yu_1
Sitting on the back of the White Dragon Princess, Su Yu looked down at Dragon Island, a place unbeknownst to humans in his former life.
To the naked eye, the landscape brimmed with dense primeval forest. Filled with beasts and warcraft (the dragon race’s food), it resembled an undeveloped deserted island.
Yet, with each mountain reached, Su Yucould see massive cavernous entrances, each tens of meters tall, at the base of these peaks—abodes of the dragon race.
About three times the size of Hainan Island, and home to just over 20,000 dragons, Dragon Island was large, and its inhabitants spread out thinly.
The return of the young dragons quickly got the attention of the other dragons on the island.
Especially the parents of the young dragons. When they heard their young ones brag about “bringing back a very friendly Skru”, they too hastily came. Like humans laying their eyes upon a panda for the first time, they curiously observed Su Yu.
The number of dragons that showed up kept growing.
Not long after the young dragons entered Dragon Island, five to six hundred adult giant dragons had already gathered around Su Yu.
With wingspans generally exceeding 25 meters, and those of the 6th stage at least 30 meters long, their gathering could only be described as an earth-shaking spectacle.
The warcraft in the primeval forest below trembled with fear and fled helter-skelter.
The giant dragons observed Su Yu curiously while communicating with each other in a dragon language that Su Yu could not comprehend.
Thankfully, Dawn Star understood dragon language. Through her translations, Su Yu knew what the giant dragons were saying.
At this moment, a giant dragon spoke: “My child said they found a very friendly Skru in Dragon City. I did not believe it at first, but after one glance, I find him very amiable, a feeling unexplainable and beyond words.”
“Indeed! When we look at the typical Skru, we feel neither repulsion nor friendliness. But this one is extraordinary; dragons are instinctively drawn to him!”
“I remember Teregos loves to eat Skru… Teregos, you are here too! Would you eat this Skru?”
The Blue Dragon called Teregos hurriedly shook her massive dragon head: “I will emphasize again! I do not relish eating Skru. Those over 20 Skru purposely let me eat them for high video views… However, this Skru in front of us looks delicate, and it absolutely doesn’t whet my appetite.”
“Such a pleasant Skru, this is my first time seeing one!”
“How did he achieve this? Is it a special type of Spell?”
“It doesn’t look like a Spell. It seems more like a kind of power from deep within his bloodline, which means it’s very likely to be innate.”
“What do we do with this Skru then?”
“I don’t know, but rumors say Princess Coco wants to become his companion.”
….
Listening to Morning Star’s translations, Su Yu understood the discussions among the giant dragons.
The feeling was like he was a panda that just arrived at the zoo, surrounded by humans, all of whom took a liking to him.
Su Yu patted the scales on the back of the White Dragon Princess, intending to ask her where they were heading to.
However, a commotion suddenly arose from up ahead.
A magnificent White Dragon with a wingspan exceeding 45 meters flew in from a far-off place.
In the Giant Dragon Clan, the larger the size, the stronger the dragon. A wingspan of 45 meters proved that this White Dragon was a tier 7 powerhouse, at least!
“Mommy! Mommy!” Upon seeing the White Dragon, Princess Coco excitedly flapped her wings and greeted.
The arriving White Dragon was her mother, the clan leader of the White Dragons, also known as the White Dragon Queen.
The White Dragon Queen, from a distance, had detected the gathering of the dragon crowd in the sky and hence hastened over to see what the fuss was.
As she drew closer, she noticed her daughter and Su Yu right in the center of the dragon crowd.
Initially, she was very angry.
After all, her precious daughter had only just gone to Dragon City today and was already being used as a mount by the despicable Skru. Even if he were from the Raging Sun Royal Clan, he was entirely undeserving!
But as she drew nearer and sensed the aura emanating from Su Yu, her rage vanished without a trace.
Though Su Yu was riding on Coco, it felt as harmless and endearing as a baby panda clinging to a human’s leg. It didn’t incite anger in her at all.
In fact, she even entertained the thought of having Coco let go of Su Yu so that he could ride her instead.
However, she quickly dismissed the idea, refusing to fight over a man with her own child.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
“Mommy!” Princess Coco, with Su Yu in tow, flew over to her mother and began to boast while flapping her wings: “Today, when we were in Dragon City, we noticed this Skru from far away. I’ve never seen such a friendly Skru before…”
She then roughly recounted what had transpired in Dragon City.
As the White Dragon Queen listened to her daughter describing the event, she couldn’t help but steal a few extra glances at Su Yu.
Throughout her life, she had seen Skru that were well-liked by the dragons upon their first sight, but she had never come across a Skru like Su Yu, whom the dragons couldn’t help but befriend right from the start.
However, since they met now, it can only be summed up as a stroke of luck for her daughter.
“This Skru,” The White Dragon Queen addressed Su Yu in fluent Skru language, “Welcome to Dragon Island, and also, feel welcome to visit my lair.”
“I would be honored!” Su Yu quickly returned the favor.
“Hmm.” The White Dragon Queen turned and led the way. Su Yu, flanked by a horde of dragons, then followed her to her lair.
…
…
For the subsequent two days, Su Yu spent his time on Dragon Island.
Arriving at the White Dragon Queen’s lair, the queen and her daughter lavished Su Yu with hospitality, grant him a large amount of gold and jewels, weighing as much as several dozen tons.
In response to their expansiveness, Su Yu reciprocated by sharing some of his rare fishes that he had been hoarding with them. The atmosphere was merry, and they had a grand time.
On the first day, the news of Su Yu’s arrival spread across the entire island, and every giant dragon scampered over to watch.
The surroundings of the White Dragon Queen’s lair were jam-packed, and Su Yu was required to play host, surrounded by all the dragons.
On the second day, fewer dragons came. Princess Coco flew Su Yu around the entire Dragon Island, introducing him to the geography and extraordinary landscapes of Dragon Island, and extended him an invitation to live on Dragon Island.
But of course, Su Yu couldn’t possibly stay on Dragon Island. There were still many tasks awaiting him on Blue Star.
Two more days passed, and it was the 9th of November, making it the 7th day since Su Yu arrived on Skru Star.
After much contemplation and discussions with Morning Star, Su Yu finally made a monumental decision— It was time to speed up the process, he was going to reveal his true identity as a human from Blue Star to the dragons!
Yesterday, while Princess Coco was flying him around Dragon Island, he gained a critical piece of information— The Dragon Emperor, Kadrigos, was not on Dragon Island.
He could now reveal his identity to the dragons. Even if negotiations broke down, he was confident he could still leave Dragon Island.
Certainly, the main reason was that he genuinely did not have the time to stay on Dragon Island and slowly build a rapport with the dragons.
Hence, he decided it was time to lay his cards on the table!
