Long Nü went to put away the quilts, and I pulled Elena into an embrace, casually unfastening her top. Her full R-breasts sprang out, heavy and wonderfully substantial in my hands. I told her, "When we get back, I'll buy you some fine lingerie. I genuinely worry those two will droop down to your waist otherwise. Besides, your father still owes me a hundred billion US dollars; we have plenty of money."

Elena wrapped her arms around my neck and laughed, "Don't be tiresome. You get to earn my father's money too. You could give my R-breasts some maintenance, couldn't you? Didn't you say Su Su and Yi Xiaorou do it often, and the results are fantastic?"

I looked troubled. "If I smear those things on them, I’m genuinely afraid that Long Nü and I will never want to drink your milk again afterwards. You choose."

Long Nü laughed from the bedside. "Nana, we agreed, if you let my husband mess around, I'm not drinking!"

Elena looked at Long Nü and countered, "Long Nü, sooner or later you'll come to enjoy the perverted stuff. Because as far as I know, Zhao Qian and those older sisters of his are the most perverted of perverts. Their games are unheard of. After you try it a few times, I believe you'll grow to love that kind of play."

Long Nü retorted, "If my husband transforms, I can accept that. But if he gets perverse, I think I’d rather he got perverse with you."

I tossed Elena onto the **, then stripped her upper body completely bare. My gaze then settled on Long Nü, "Are you coming over yourself, or do I have to make you?"

It wasn't the first time the three of us had faced each other completely exposed. Long Nü chuckled, "I'd better be proactive, since you wouldn't dare do anything harsh to me anyway. At most, you’ll get to feel around a bit."

Watching the two naked, delicate bodies lying side by side on the bed, I said, "Alright, now be honest and tell me everything, bit by bit, about what happened after my 'explosion.' If anyone dares to hide a single word, I will spank her."

Elena glanced down at my lower member and quipped, "Are you going to use that to spank? Then I’ll hide a hundred sentences first."

Long Nü said, "I wouldn't dare hide anything, but Husband, I’ll only tell you if you hold both of us. I remember you were completely sober then. How could you not remember anything? What a pity, you would have been so moved by yourself."

Elena knew how anxious I was to learn the truth, but she deliberately stalled. "How about we nurse first, and then let Husband hold us? They’re so full."

I casually picked up a cup from the table. "Squeeze it in here first."

Long Nü shifted her body, making room between herself and Elena. "Husband, you eat from me here while I talk."

It was an excellent suggestion. So, I settled into Elena's embrace, and Long Nü held me tightly from behind, as if terrified I might suddenly run away.

Long Nü began speaking from behind me, "That day, I truly thought I was about to die, but I couldn't accept it. It didn't matter if I died, but you, Dragon Emissary, had to keep living. After all, you still have so many older sisters to look after, and Tai Hao needs your help too. I heard the sound of your body exploding, but I couldn't get oxygen at the time. My vision started blurring, and my head spun, making it impossible to see what was happening on your side. After the sound of the explosion, I heard an even louder sound, and then my throat relaxed, and I could finally breathe fresh air. When I regained consciousness, I saw clearly that I was sitting on the back of a dragon!"

"A dragon!" I exclaimed involuntarily, popping out Elena's nipple. Elena grabbed the back of my head and pushed me back down onto her chest. "Be good and nurse, listen to Long Nü continue her story."

"Yes, a dragon. Although I had never seen a real dragon, do you remember the drawing of a dragon I once made for you, Husband? It looked just like that. That’s why I said it was a dragon." The dragon Long Nü drew was the symbol of the Red Dragon Security.

I sucked on Elena's nipple, hesitating, "You aren't trying to tell me that this dragon was you transforming, are you?"

Long Nü replied, "At first, I didn't know where the dragon came from. But the first thing I did after regaining consciousness was look for you. But you know what? The high platform in the center of the palace was blown to dust, and you had vanished. I was terrified then; I feared you might already be dead. But as I sat on that dragon’s back, I felt a very strange sensation—a sense of security so familiar. I knew I only felt that way on the Dragon Emissary’s back. So, in an instant, I believed that this dragon was you, the Dragon Emissary, and you always liked having girls ride on your back."

"Impossible!" I protested. "If I were to mutate, at most I would turn into a snake. How could I become a dragon? I’m not that magnificent. Don’t profane the totem of our nation."

Elena interjected instead, "Zhao Qian, this is where your understanding is flawed. I asked Long Nü; six thousand years ago, the ancients had no idea what a dragon was. Their family name, Long, was merely a surname; it didn't represent a totem or any other meaning. Only a few people had seen Thomas’s prophecy book and recognized that strangely shaped animal as a dragon from the crude drawing inside. You are currently judging events from six thousand years ago with the reverence that people of the Great Dragon Kingdom hold for dragons now, and that is incorrect. Before you transformed, they didn't have much impression of or respect for this animal. But now it's different; it's all because of your appearance."

I argued, "Even if that dragon was me, how could I shapeshift? Besides, you just said yourselves that dragons didn't even exist before! How could I turn into a species that didn't exist?"

Elena explained simply, "The reason is straightforward. A dragon is a composite of a serpent's body, a deer's horns, a tortoise's eyes, fish scales, a tiger's paws, an eagle's talons, and so on—the king of all beasts. I remember you once mentioned that the genes of Bai and Xue were successfully combined six thousand years later. That means the genetic chain of modern humans carries the hereditary codes of many species. Perhaps your body was stimulated by a special environment, causing a metamorphosis, merging various species into one body, thus creating the image of the dragon."

"That makes sense," I conceded. "Let Long Nü continue."

Long Nü went on, "After that, I couldn't see anything clearly because your movements were too fast. You were entangled with a black shadow. I was terrified and could only cling tightly to your back. Later, I realized Bai, Xue, and Brother Hu had all arrived on your back as well. You carried us, fighting the black shadow through heaven and earth. Sand and dirt were flying everywhere; we couldn't open our eyes. Later, we heard continuous explosions, each one more violent than the last. When we looked again, we were already in the sky. We watched the huge, ring-shaped city floating on the water below gradually sink as the explosions continued. You didn't stop at all; you took us to the interstellar spaceship and then flew away."

"Flew away?" I questioned.

"Yes. I was very sad then. No matter how much I called you, you wouldn't listen. I thought you were going to abandon us! But soon after, you returned carrying Brother Long Xi, Sister Nana, Brother Zhu, Brother Cai, and many other people. After setting them down, you flew off again."

"I see," I realized. "That dragon went to pick people up. Kang Hui's nuclear bombs must have detonated."

Long Nü confirmed, "Husband, you are so smart. Just before the nuclear bombs exploded, you evacuated most of the people from Dragon Mountain City. It’s a pity that the people in the other cities suffered a devastating disaster. But Sister Nana said that this was a calamity they couldn't escape, destined by history."

My heart darkened. I feared the catastrophe was far from over. A few major cities were destroyed, but there were still vast numbers of prehistoric people scattered across the globe. I knew only a very small fraction of these people would survive. That meant the Great Flood was ultimately coming.

Long Nü continued, "After saving us, you collapsed onto the ground. Soon after, your body slowly retracted and transformed back into your current appearance. Only then did everyone realize that the dragon was you, and I confirmed my own suspicion: my husband was truly the Dragon Emissary!"
