Legend Management Bureau Chapter 337

The enigma of love[ … words ]

[ … words ]

Before encountering those sisters, Yinglong had never imagined that the difference between humans and beasts could be so vast.

That day, a pair of young sisters were gathering herbs on the mountain, startling Yinglong, who was resting not far away.

Looking at the sisters’ beautiful, fair faces, wicked thoughts arose in Yinglong’s mind once more.

He knew full well that mating with them could yield the finest offspring.

But humans were different from other wild beasts. The moment they saw Yinglong, their eyes filled with utter terror.

They held hands and fled in a panic, leaving Yinglong deeply bewildered.

He was clearly here to bestow his dragon seed upon them, so why were they running?

Despite his confusion, Yinglong used his magical power to trap the two of them, bringing them to a nearby village.

He knew that no matter how unique humans were, they were still a type of animal.

Thus, right in front of the sisters, Yinglong slaughtered everyone in the village, then unleashed a devastating dragon breath that leveled the entire settlement to the ground.

For any wild beasts, such overwhelming power would be more than enough to secure mating rights.

But when he turned his head to look at the sisters, their eyes still held nothing but terror.

A terror even more profound than before.

However, to Yinglong’s delight, they no longer tried to run. Instead, they knelt on the ground, kowtowing endlessly.

It was as if they saw him as a natural disaster.

The older girl fiercely shielded her younger sister behind her, both of them trembling uncontrollably.

Though she was the older sister, she looked to be seventeen or eighteen at most.

She knew that she and her sister were likely doomed to die.

Seeing them scared out of their wits, Yinglong’s interest was piqued.

The world claimed that love was the most difficult concept to understand. This time, he decided to change his approach, taking the two back to his cave dwelling and treating them like guests.

He firmly believed that it would not be long before they willingly threw themselves into his arms and bore his dragon children.

‘This must be the concept of love, right?’

Every day, Yinglong would hunt rare and exotic beasts, laying them before the two sisters for them to enjoy.

Yet, faced with these mangled, bloody corpses covered in gruesome wounds, they couldn’t bring themselves to eat a single bite.

They only sat there shivering, without consuming any food.

As the days passed, the sisters grew increasingly emaciated. On the tenth day, the older sister finally spoke.

This was the first time Yinglong heard her voice, and the first time he conversed with her.

“Great Immortal, why exactly did you capture us?”

‘Great Immortal?’

This title brought Yinglong a sense of joy. So, in their eyes, he was actually a Great Immortal?

“Do not panic. I simply wish to sow my dragon seed within you, so that you may bear my dragon children.”

It would have been better if Yinglong had said nothing; his words only terrified them further.

The realization that this colossal monster’s ultimate goal was to violate them struck profound terror into their hearts.

After a long pause, the older sister pleaded, “Great Immortal, keep me and let my younger sister go. No matter how many dragon children you want, I will bear them for you. Our mother is severely ill, and she is waiting for the herbs we gathered to save her life.”

“Sister! No!” the younger sister cried out. Yinglong noticed that both of their voices were as pleasant as silver bells.

“I see. So you have such concerns.” Yinglong gave a slight nod. “Do not worry, I will handle everything.”

Yinglong demanded their address and flew away.

The sisters felt a moment of uncertainty. They had initially been terrified by Yinglong’s fearsome appearance, but now it seemed he might actually understand human empathy.

But they were wrong.

Several hours later, Yinglong returned to the cave dwelling, completely drenched in blood.

Wearing a wide smile, he excitedly announced that he had slaughtered everyone in their village, including their sick mother.

Now, they could cast aside all their worries and focus entirely on incubating his dragon seed here.

They had thought the dark clouds were parting, allowing them to finally see the sun.

But instead, a deafening thunderbolt tore through the clouds, instantly shattering the sisters’ emotional defenses.

The massive dragon before them was no Great Immortal; he was a genuine, full-fledged fierce beast.

The sisters knew they couldn’t escape death.

Running meant death, and resisting meant death. Even if they agreed to carry the true dragon’s seed, how could a mortal body ever incubate a demonic beast? They would still die in the end.

There were simply not that many miracles in this world.

For months, no one came to rescue the two girls.

Amidst their despair, they gradually descended into hell.

Several months later, they were unkempt and emaciated to the bone. Their expressions were vacant, and their clothes had been reduced to tattered rags.

Only their bellies bulged high, forming a stark contrast to their withered frames.

Yinglong had never known that producing offspring with humans would take so long, and it left him feeling irritated.

He grew impatient, desperately wanting to see exactly what form of dragon fetus had been gestating for all this time.

But he didn’t know that to survive, the sisters had gnawed away every single blade of grass and root within the cave dwelling.

They slowly lost the will to live, for they knew that even if they managed to survive day by day, it was absolutely impossible to give birth. After all, they didn’t have a single ounce of strength left.

The giant dragon before them never cared whether they lived or died; the only thing this monster cared about was the dragon fetuses in their wombs.

Shortly after, Yinglong placed a restrictive seal on the cave dwelling, ensuring the two mortals couldn’t escape. He then spent his days touring the mountains and rivers, only returning every few days to check on them.

Finally, one day, when Yinglong returned to the cave dwelling once more, the situation had drastically changed.

In a rare display, both sisters had actually stood up. Each clutched a sharp, pointed stone in their hands, glaring fixedly at Yinglong.

The stones looked like they had been sharpened against the ground for a very long time.

Yinglong looked at them in confusion. “What are you preparing to do? Slay me with those rocks?”

The two naturally knew that using the strength of a mortal to slaughter a dragon with mere stones was an impossible endeavor, absolute fantasy talk.

Instead, they turned the sharp stones inward, aiming the jagged tips at themselves.

“Beast! If you want this child, then…” the older sister gritted her teeth and declared, “Let us go! Give us something to eat!”

“Oh?” Yinglong’s interest was finally piqued. “Fascinating.”

Hearing this, the sisters both froze in shock.

‘What does he mean?’

‘Could it be that this fierce beast doesn’t even care about his own offspring?’

“Stab yourselves,” Yinglong urged. “Go ahead and plunge them in. My lifespan is incredibly long, more than enough to find countless other humans. I often execute useless offspring anyway; doing it yourselves just saves me the effort.”

The sisters stood frozen for a long time before the sharp stones tumbled from their hands.

They knew they couldn’t kill Yinglong, but they had never anticipated that his attitude toward his own flesh and blood would be so ruthless.

“You monster, if I possessed the body of an immortal… I would definitely tear you into ten thousand pieces…” the older sister snarled, her eyes bloodshot, having clenched her teeth so hard that blood seeped from her gums.

“Ha, what a joke. If you truly possessed the body of an immortal, perhaps I would have some reservations. But as you are now…” At this point, Yinglong suddenly remembered something.

‘The body of an immortal?’
