--- Chapter 78 ---
'She fell asleep.' Yunlong thought as he looked at Liu Erlong, who was comfily sleeping while hugging his hand.
'I don't entirely know what happened to her, but it should put a burden on her.' He continued while shifting his gaze at the skies, which had turned slightly reddish.
"Warm..." Liu Erlong suddenly muttered while tightly grasping Yunlong's hand, which made him feel somewhat mixed for a moment.
"Liu Erlong, I don't know what would happen in the future, but I hope something good happens to you," Yunlong said while giving the woman a soft pat on the head.
"Young master, should we continue our journey?" The driver suddenly approached him, to which Yunlong responded with a shake of his head.
"No, it's almost night. Let's continue the journey tomorrow," Yunlong replied while shifting his gaze to the driver, who nodded his head in consent.
'I also need a rest since I burned a lot of spirit energy in this fight.' He commented while looking around the training field, which had become utterly destroyed because of their fight.
"What a day..." Yunlong said while releasing a sigh.
He instructed the driver to bring Liu Erlong to a guest room, but to their surprise, the woman tightly hugged Yunlong's left hand like super-strong sticky glue.
"Young master, what should we do now? At this rate, she wouldn't let your hand. Maybe we should cut her hand?" The driver said, which brings out a weak smile on Yunlong's face.
"No, it's okay... I would be the one who'll take her to the guest room." Yunlong responded with a sigh.
He lifted Liu Erlong's body with his hand and brought her like a princess to the guest room. Even though the position looks comical, Yunlong naturally carried her away and gently placed her on the bed, making the woman cry for some reason.

"Don't leave me..." Liu Erlong muttered while grasping Yunlong's left hand, which made him somewhat confused because from where did she gained the strength to hold him.
Yunlong tugged his hand for a moment and found it stuck between Liu Erlong's bosom, which made him in a very awkward position.
"Please don't leave me..." Liu Erlong once again muttered while releasing tears, which made him frown at her.
Yunlong became quiet for a few seconds and sighed afterward because he could forcibly release his hand from her embrace, but looking at her reminded him of a Bibi Dong's past, where she's crying alone in a quiet room.
'Let's stay here for a few minutes,' Yunlong thought to himself as he took a chair and sat on it.
A few hours later, Liu Erlong opened her eyes and looked around with a confused expression. "What happened…?" She muttered.
"This warmth." She looked at the unfamiliar hand in her embrace and noticed Yunlong, who lay his head on the bed while sitting on the chair.
'Did he wait for me all this time?' Liu Erlong thought while looking at the kid, who defeated her in a fight.
She caressed Yunlong's black hair for a moment and realized that he made her very comfortable, which happened because of the fight and their dragon's martial soul, or to be exact, their dragon lineage.
"Fill the emptiness…" Liu Erlong touched her chest using Yunlong's left hand, which made her closed her eyes pleasantly for a few minutes.
She took a deep breath as her whole body suddenly warmed at a fast rate, her face flushed a little, and a gasp escaped her mouth.
"It's a different kind of feeling…" Liu Erlong said while shifting her gaze back to Yunlong.
"Mm, mother…?" Yunlong suddenly uttered while feeling the soft touch on his head but realized it was not his mother's hand, which woke him up.
'He woke up!' Liu Erlong thought while feeling the warmth leaving her body as Yunlong pulled his left hand away from her.
'It's gone…' She looked at Yunlong's left hand and immediately felt empty again in her heart
Yunlong checked his body and noticed nothing happened, which made him release a sigh of relief. "Since you already woke up, I will go to my room." He said.
He gazed at Liu Erlong and walked away from her, which made the woman want to catch his left hand back, but she held the urge since she knew her limit.
Liu Erlong bit her lips and looked at Yunlong's back with a longing expression. "Good night." She quietly said.
"Good night for you too," Yunlong responded as he walked out of the room.
As Yunlong went away and left her alone in the room, Liu Erlong quietly sighed and said, "What's this feeling?"
Meanwhile, Yunlong stood outside of the room and stared at his left hand with a slightly confused expression because he could feel some energy lingering in it, which is something that happened to him after sleeping together with his sister.
'Spirit Harmonization...' Yunlong thought while shifting his gaze to Liu Erlong's room, which made him complicated, but he decided to shake it off.
'We're compatible, huh.' He quietly continued and walked away to another guest room.
--- The Next Day ---
Yunlong woke up with a yawn and stretched his body a little since he felt so refreshed.
"It's already morning," Yunlong said while lifting his body from the bed and walking toward the window, where he took a little peek.
He could see the training field he used yesterday, which is really in a bad state. "Well, I just have to give them a few arrangements later." He said.
Knock! Knock!
"Young master," Chu Xiaoyu stood in front of the door with a tray of breakfast.
"Enter, Xiaoyu," Yunlong responded while shifting his gaze to the maid, who entered his room.
"Your breakfast." Chu Xiaoyu placed the tray on the table.
"Mm, thanks." Yunlong nodded and smiled at her, "What about them?"
"They were ready..." Chu Xiaoyu quietly replied with her usual stoic expression.
"I see, that's good." Yunlong took a bite of the breakfast, which is very flavorful and pleasant.
"Well, we will go after I finish this breakfast." He stated, to which Xiaoyu responded with a nod.
After Yunlong quickly finished his breakfast, he and Xiaoyu walked downstairs to meet the other maids, who had been waiting for them.
Yunlong also noticed someone, who observed him from afar, which made him frown a little.
"What do you want?" Yunlong looked at Liu Erlong, who quietly took a peek at him from behind a wall.
"Can I hold your hand for the last time, just for a while?" Liu Erlong requested as she wanted to confirm something.
Yunlong took a glance at her eyes for a moment and nodded his head since he doesn't sense any ill intent from her.
Liu Erlong approached him with lightning speed and hurriedly grasped his hands, which made Yunlong feel weird for a moment, but he can see that her eyes glistened with a surprise light.
'It felt comfortable.' Liu Erlong thought and suddenly noticed that their energy intertwined with each other. contemporary romance
'This is a high-level spirit harmonization.' She felt a great connection with Yunlong, which made her body melt and her leg shaky like a jelly.
"Hey, are you okay?" Yunlong supported her body by grabbing her waist and looked at her in the eyes.
"I-I'm okay." Liu Erlong hurriedly responded and released herself from Yunlong's hand.
"T-Thank you." She bowed her body at him and walked away in a hurry, which made Yunlong stare at her with a confused expression.
Yunlong shook his head and shifted his gaze to his maids, who stared at him with a weird expression, especially Bai Xue, who frowned at him with a suspicious look.
"What?" Yunlong responded.
"Young Master, you don't do anything weird to her, right?" Bai Xue asked, to which Yunlong responded with a shake of his head,
"What kind of imaginations did you have? I didn't do anything to her." Yunlong replied while flicking her on the forehead.
"Let's go. We have to continue our journey." He stated while walking toward the entrance.
Behind a wall, we could see Liu Erlong releasing a heavy breath while having a red face. She looked at the window, where she could see Yunlong entering a carriage with his maids.
"W-What actually happened to me...?!" Liu Erlong softly whispered while gently touching the window as she's trying to calm herself down.
