Chapter 986 - 387: Mu Yi Hanba_3
"Yes..." Elder Yin opened his mouth, intending to object.
His lips moved thrice but eventually, he bowed his head, choosing to comply.
"Your Excellency, I’ll speak frankly."
Mang Hao looked at Ye Hanjun once again, smiling slightly:
"This journey is tied to my personal destiny, as well as to the revival and rise of our race. I cannot back down, nor can I yield."
"In fact, the timing of your arrival is extremely clever. Princess Shi Ju was about to make a decision when you suddenly appeared, which will undoubtedly make her hesitate."
Mang Hao turned slightly, suddenly looking in another direction, and said with confidence:
"I’m right, aren’t I? Shi Ju, you’ve been secretly watching again."
"Why, is that not allowed?"
A resounding dragon roar like a bell echoed through the hall.
In the far distance, a giant beast rushed over, galloping across the sky as if it were a land animal, with a wind that was louder than thunderclaps.
"Boom!!"
The giant beast landed, and the gathered crowd hurriedly scattered, not daring to linger for even a second.
As the rising dust slowly dissipated, Ye Hanjun focused his gaze.
On his shoulder, GuaGua couldn’t wait, afraid of missing a single scene.
"Wow, the Corpse Dragon Lady looks like this, totally different from what I imagined!"
In just an instant, GuaGua’s small mouth formed an O shape.
Dragon lady, dragon lady, even with a ’corpse’ prefix, one would think she would have a humanoid form—that was GuaGua’s initial thought.
But the creature before them was clearly quite different.
She actually had a dragon head on a human body, with four arms, wings on her back, and a tail extending behind her, exuding an intimidating and domineering presence without a hint of feminine frailty.
GuaGua measured carefully, roughly confirming that the Corpse Dragon Lady Shi Ju was about fifty meters tall.
Compared to other Radiant World Embryos, she was obviously short.
But next to Huazhu, Aegifura, she was a giant, one that certainly counted for ten.
"Good heavens, she’s carrying a coffin on her back, just like the Oil Gourd! But hers is bigger, as if just dug out from a grave, with an even thicker aura of menace!"
GuaGua exclaimed in surprise.
Oil Gourd was the nickname it had given to Mang Hao, with ’Baldy’ and ’Bald Monk’ sounding too unpleasant; calling a shiny head ’Oil Gourd’ seemed more befitting.
"Eh, are those ancient dragon clan characters inscribed in the big dragon lady’s pupils? I seem to have learned this character; it’s pronounced ’shi.’ Such a pupil shape, quite odd and peculiar..."
"She has so many dragon scales too, almost covering her entire body, all different in design. Some emit a dazzling light, others resemble metal, even some look like tree bark, all with different materials. How magical..."
"This is precisely the bloodline trait of the Corpse Dragon species," Ye Hanjun explained while observing and transmitting his voice solely in one direction:
"They continuously absorb various dragon bloodlines, leaving traces on the Corpse Dragon females."
"Dragon scales are an important reference. The larger and more distinctive the scales, the higher the level of the refined dragon corpse’s bloodline."
"Conversely, the smaller the scales, the weaker the dragon corpse, or it means that the absorption was terribly inefficient on that occasion..."
After patiently listening to Ye Hanjun’s explanation, GuaGua couldn’t help but ask:
"Big Tadpole, did you see the attribute panel? How is it, how is it, are you moved?!"
Ye Hanjun pursed his lips, recalling the attribute panel he had just seen, still slightly amazed, and then replied:
"If I could forge a contract with this Corpse Dragon Lady, even if it means bearing the hatred of the dragon race and attracting more enemies, it seems a price worth paying..."

Corpse Dragon Lady, the preliminary life form before the Corpse Dragon Queen.
This race grows by refining dragon corpses, excelling in physical combat as well as mastering formidable undead spells, with a rather mixed set of abilities.
However, the attribute panel clearly indicates that Shi Ju has mastered four extreme skills, with very high strength.
The core personality "Collecting Mania" subtly explains her hobbies or personal pursuits.
The most astonishing is the Divine Trace Lineage. According to common sense and all intelligence previously acquired, the Corpse Dragon species showed signs of decay and their divine nature in the bloodline would completely disappear before long.
But Shi Ju’s Divine Enthronement Bloodline is marked with the word "Rich," and the added "Forbidden Gathering/Unstable" suggests there might be a hidden story.
Ye Hanjun does not know the full story yet.
But he is certain that in the whole wide world, aside from a Divine Trace Lineage like Hanba, there were very few other options that could stir his heart.
"Swish swish..."
The Corpse Dragon Lady pointed a finger, and the score on the leaderboard rapidly changed. Behind "Gray," an immediate increase of 12,000 points was registered.
This meant she accepted Ye Hanjun’s assessment, and "Gray" took the top spot, surpassing Mang Hao, who was ranked second, under the watchful eyes of all, stealing the limelight.
