Xia Yi explained: "Lucia, you know that the situation in the Black Stone Kingdom this time is not simple. The Fox Tribe is actually involved."
"oh……?!"
"You saw it just now, right? A member of the fox tribe tried to challenge me, and her identity is the daughter of the Nine-tailed Fox King."
"The Nine-Tailed Fox Princess, Yueliu Jituserzoya," Lucia remembered, "Although I have never seen her, I have heard of her name. After all, the country of the fox tribe is not too far away from our dragon country."
"The Fox Clan is helping Gu Dan, most likely because they want to get something from the Black Stone Nation through Gu Dan," Xia Yi said, "Just now, I deliberately let Yue Liu Jituserzoya go. Since she is the princess of the Fox Clan, she can't go out alone. I want to find out all the people behind her and get all the information!"
"Your Highness, I support you in doing this. The fox tribe interfering in our vassal state is no small matter."
"Then, Lucia, you stay here on the battlefield. I'll go find the Nine-tailed Fox Princess." Xia Yi ordered.
"Don't you want me to do it?" Lucia asked doubtfully, "It's such a simple matter, there's no need to trouble you."
"No need! Lucia, you have to stay here and keep an eye on Gu Dan, and calm down the other lizards. Wait until Gu Ya comes here and hand Gu Dan over to him. I'm worried that this may be a trick of the fox tribe. After all, the fox tribe is very cunning. If the nine-tailed fox princess deliberately leads us away and then takes the opportunity to rescue Gu Dan, we must be careful. There is one person staying here. I believe you can do this!"
"..."
Lucia's expression became a little complicated, but she quickly covered it up.
"As you command, Your Highness, I admire your foresight. Please rest assured that I will live up to the title of the royal maid and complete this task."
"Yes, that's good, Lucia. I'll take the first step now!"
Xia Yi left in the direction the little fox escaped and went to track it.
Looking at the little princess's back, Lucia originally wanted to expose the little princess's little thoughts.
But then he remembered what Her Majesty the Queen had told him.
Whatever orders Her Royal Highness the Princess gave, they had to be carried out, so she had no choice but to leave.
"Your Majesty, you really dote on Her Royal Highness the Princess too much..." Lucia sighed softly.
After that, she just guarded everyone like this. Her identity as a dragon was enough to prevent the lizards from doing anything rash.
Until Black Fang found Gu Ya.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Gu Ya was surprised and happy, "Miss Lucia, has our battle plan been successful?"
"Yes," Lucia replied coldly, "Prince Gu Ya, although there were some minor accidents along the way, these were insignificant troubles for Her Royal Highness the Princess. She easily defeated all the enemies and captured the rebel Gu Dan."
Lucia grabbed Gudan by the collar and threw him unconscious in front of Gu Ya.
Seeing that his uncle, who had been so arrogant in front of him before, had now become a fish on the chopping board, he couldn't stop smiling.
"Your Highness, thanks to Princess Xia Yi, there are no more enemies preventing you from restoring the royal orthodoxy of the Black Stone Kingdom! The Black Stone Kingdom is back in your hands!" General Black Fang was also extremely excited.
"Ms. Lucia, thank you so much for the help of the dragon clan. If it weren't for the dragon clan, I don't know what I would have done! Where is the princess? I haven't thanked her in person yet."
Gu Ya is now eager to deal with his uncle, but he still has to go through the process and show respect to the dragon clan and give them enough face.
"Your Highness, there are other important matters that have not been dealt with. If you have anything to say, I can help you convey it." Lucia's words were full of threats. "Also, don't forget your promise. It is not difficult for the dragon clan to make anyone the king of Black Stone."
Vice versa, the same is true.
This is the warning from the dragon clan to Gu Ya.
Gu Ya nodded quickly. He knew very well what his future fate would be.
"I understand...! Miss Lucia, our Black Stone Nation will definitely remember the kindness of the Dragon Clan, and we will definitely fulfill our promise to the Dragon Clan!"
Gu Dan slowly woke up, and seeing his smug nephew, he shouted angrily: "Gu Ya, let me go, or you will be in trouble!"
"Uncle, stop yelling. I have the support of the dragon clan now. What can you use to fight me?"
“You…” Gudan saw Lucia, “What did you do to make the dragon clan help you?!”
"Nothing much, it's just Her Majesty the Queen's proposal to jointly mine the magic crystal veins of our Black Stone Country. I think it is very reasonable, and I accept it."
Hearing this, Gu Dan was stunned for a moment, and then he yelled, "Are you crazy? You actually handed over the lifeblood of our Black Stone Nation to a foreign race. You will become a sinner of the Black Stone Nation!!"
"Sinner? I don't care about that. I only care about whether my position is stable. If you ask me, you forced me to do this. If it weren't for you, why would I ask for help from Her Majesty the Queen? It's you who harmed the Black Stone Kingdom, uncle."
"Damn bastard, scum..."
"You're obviously not a good person, how dare you say that. But go ahead and scold me, uncle, if it can make you feel better before you die, hahahaha!"
As the winner, Gu Yahaha didn't care about Gu Dan's feelings. He ordered Heiya to capture his uncle.
Lucia has seen the future. No one in the Black Stone Kingdom will choose to rebel against Gu Ya, and the civil strife will end soon, and the magic crystal vein will fall into the hands of Her Majesty the Queen.
……
After Xia Yi left Lengfeng Valley, she didn't chase the little fox at all.
She had already seen the map of the Black Stone Kingdom and had finalized her plan. Now she was at the border. As long as she went to a city called Black River City and took a boat, she could go down the river and leave the Black Stone Kingdom.
Then, I will be free.
Xia Yi found an empty cave in advance and hid there.
He took out the conversion potion he was carrying and drank it in one gulp. He felt dizzy again.
When he woke up from his coma, he had turned into a human.
Now even the breath of the dragon clan has disappeared. If Lucia senses something is wrong and wants to find me, she will no longer have any chance.
My plan is perfect.
Hehehe, goodbye, Silver Dragon Queen, the mother-daughter game with you is over!
49 Before leaving
The kingdom of dragons, the dragon palace.
Several days have passed.
In the dim palace, there was no firelight at all, only scattered starlight shining through the glass and onto the cold dragon throne.
The silver-haired dragon loli sitting on it had her head lowered, and her expression could not be seen.
"…Your Majesty." Lucia saluted to Xia Lulu.
"Is it Lucia?" Xia Lulu asked without even raising her head.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I am back. Gudan's army was defeated by Her Royal Highness, the civil strife in the Black Stone Kingdom has ended, Guya has regained power and become king. He has also handed over the magic crystal vein to us as agreed. Everything..." Lucia lowered her head, "As you wish."
"Where's Xia Yi?"
"Your Highness, the princess left after the battle in Cold Wind Valley and has disappeared without a trace."
"I understand. You can leave now." There was no emotion in Xia Lulu's voice.
He did not fly into a rage, nor did he anxiously order a search. He just responded calmly, indicating that he already knew.
This Lucia felt somewhat familiar.
In the past, Xia Lulu was so ruthless that she cruelly destroyed her own relatives, sat on the throne covered with thorns and blood, and became the queen feared by all dragons.
After having a daughter, Xia Lulu unexpectedly underwent some changes without noticing.
But with the departure of Her Royal Highness the Princess, Her Majesty the Queen seemed to have become the same as before.
"I'll take my leave, Your Majesty," said Lucia.
After she left, the Silver Dragon Queen was the only one left in the palace hall.
The cold loneliness was like a tide, drowning her.
……
A human girl with black hair and black eyes was walking on the street of Heihe City.
This is the border of the Black Stone Kingdom, and it is also a river city and an important transportation hub. There are many foreign races here, including humans.
Therefore, Xia Yi, who transformed into a human, is not too strange here.
"Wow, it's a human!"
Xia Yi began to get excited.
It’s been six years. She hasn’t seen a human being for six years!
Today I actually saw humans.
Many humans are bringing goods and trading with the Lizardmen, purchasing minerals from the Black Stone Kingdom here and traveling to various countries via ships on the rivers.
Xia Yi’s plan is to find a human ship and take it to leave the Black Stone Kingdom.
Several days had passed since she left Cold Wind Valley. The impact of the battle in Cold Wind Valley had spread to the entire Black Stone Kingdom.
"Have you heard? Gudan has been defeated by Prince Guya."
"How is that possible! Wasn't Prince Guya cornered by Gudan before? I thought our Black Stone Kingdom already belonged to Gudan."
Xia Yi was at the dock and heard the lizard laborers whispering to each other during their break.
"It seems that you really don't care about national affairs."
"I only care about whether I can make more money tonight so I can buy delicious food for my wife!"
"What a loser! Forget it. Let me tell you. In fact, Prince Gu Ya was originally no match for Gu Dan. His army was completely defeated. Gu Dan had already prepared for the coronation ceremony and was ready to finally wipe out Gu Ya. But guess what, in the Cold Wind Valley, what happened?"
"Hurry up and tell the story. Don't be like the storyteller, dragging your feet and only telling half the story!"
"Don't worry, Prince Gu Ya was doomed to fail, but who would have thought that he would invite the Dragon Princess!"
"Dragon clan?"
"Yes, the Silver Dragon Princess of the Dragon Kingdom defeated Gudan's army. When other forces saw that the dragon elders fully supported Prince Gu Ya, who dared to act rashly? They all ran away. Gu Ya quickly recovered the lost territory and marched forward triumphantly back to the capital."
"But I heard that all dragons are evil?"
"That was in the past. Things are different now. The Dragon Masters helped Prince Gu Ya to restore his country. In order to repay them, Prince Gu Ya thought that the Dragon Masters were all good people! They are going to let the Dragon Masters mine the magic crystal veins."
"Doesn't the magic crystal vein belong to our lizard tribe?"
"That's right, but our Prince Gu Ya is generous and grateful. Are you interested in helping the dragon masters and mining?"
"No, no, mining is too dangerous and the profit is not much..."
"You don't understand. The Dragon Master is different from those nobles. He gives a lot of money, several times more, and also gives you vacations. He is very kind!"
