Dragon Maiden - Chapter 5

The Immortal pressed his forehead, seemingly helpless.

“You’re just a little child, how am I supposed to take you with me?”

“You can carry me in your mouth.”

“I’m not your mother.”

“Then I can sit on your head.”

“My head isn’t that big.”

I carefully examined the Immortal before me. Oh, right, he was in human form.

When my mother was in human form, she would either carry me or tuck me under her armpit.

“Then you can carry me, or tuck me under your armpit.”

“…”

Little Tiger bot file anti-piracy, find Book Robot and choose Little Tiger, reliable and safe, no pitfalls!

At last, he compromised, bending down and slipping his arms under my armpits, gently picking me up.

I found being held like this much more comfortable than being carried, and couldn’t help but sprawl across his shoulder, happily kicking my legs.

He laughed, patting my back with one hand, and sighed:

“What is this, really? Is it your good fortune or my bad luck?

“Little one, stop kicking your feet.”

It was only later that I learned the person carrying me all over the world searching for my mother was actually Donghua Emperor Lord of the Heavenly Palace.

The Emperor Lord rarely left his residence, and few in the Three Realms had ever seen him.

Some said he was thousands of years old, some said tens of thousands, and some even claimed he was as old as heaven and earth itself, with no one knowing for sure.

There weren’t many rumors about Donghua Emperor Lord in heaven or on earth, mostly about his age or his strength.

Even the occasional gossip was nothing more than: the Emperor Lord has recently gone into seclusion, the Emperor Lord has recently gone to Jade Spirit Mountain to lecture, the Emperor Lord was recently invited to some Dharma Assembly, and so on.

Until today, when the Emperor Lord personally heard a brand new piece of gossip.

The Emperor Lord’s wife is missing!

The Emperor Lord is searching the world for his wife with his daughter in tow!
