After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 605 Changes in the Dragon's Appearance
However, this was exactly what the Dragon Lord wanted most.

When Lin Zhao first met the Jiao Lord, he noticed how protective he was of his daughter, Jiao Rong, and sensed that there was something fishy going on.

After asking a question, I learned that the Jiao Master's offspring were few and far between, and the only one who was presentable was Jiao Rong. However, Jiao Rong's potential was still a bit lacking, so they had to resort to marriage to strengthen the bloodline of their descendants.

Therefore, Lin Zhao felt somewhat relieved after learning that the Flood Dragon Lord had left behind a teleportation array.
If it were any of the other five masters of the Ancestral Dragon, Lin Zhao really wouldn't want to owe them a favor.

The Dragon Lord frowned as he looked at the pills emitting a faint milky-white light in the box Lin Zhao handed him, clenched his fist, and said, "One pill can only send you to the teleportation array."

Lin Zhao's smile faded slightly.

As expected, this old fox who has been around for thousands of years never fights a battle that has lasted for a thousand years; he always asks for an exorbitant amount of money.

However, whether the other person can eat that much depends on whether they can actually eat it.

Lin Zhao said, "If Your Majesty insists on this, then let's call it a day. I think the Black Lord would be happy to see the clan's descendants further improve their bloodline and foundation."

The Dragon Lord gritted his teeth: "I don't want much. The teleportation array allows thirty people at a time. I can let your people occupy the teleportation array once, but I want three Heavenly Golden Emperor Dragon Pills."

With three of these pills, his options were no longer limited to Jiao Rong.

Jiao Rong's performance over the years has truly disappointed him.

Even if he didn't intend to groom Jiao Rong as the next Jiao Lord, the expectation that her offspring would become the next Jiao Lord made Jiao Rong far too arrogant. She actually dared to get involved with Xuan Chong behind his back.

Fortunately, Xuan Chong's claim of being pregnant was false, otherwise the Dragon Lord would have been overjoyed to become a grandfather and would have recognized both the child and Xuan Chong.

Therefore, this disappointment was not enough for the Dragon Lord to give up on his daughter whom he had doted on for so many years.

However, he wanted to prepare for both possibilities.

Jiao Rong's character and conduct were no longer sufficient to be his only option.

If the next generation of the Jiao clan can produce descendants to inherit his identity, why should he expect the next generation to follow?
Lin Zhao pondered for a moment: "Okay. But you'll have to prepare the remaining two herbs yourself."

The Dragon Lord gritted his teeth: "Fine."

After discussing the matter with the Jiaolong Lord, Lin Zhao left the Jiaolong territory and happened to run into the spoiled princess of the Jiaolong clan whom he had met before in the Black Dragon Clan.

She seemed to have been standing there waiting for him.

Lin Zhao glanced at her and was about to leave when she stopped him.
Lin Zhao thought the girl wanted to fight him because of what happened back then, but he couldn't sense any killing intent or hostility from her, so he asked, "What's the matter?"

Jiao Rong took a deep breath: "You're the alchemist Father wants to see?"

Lin Zhao remained silent.

To be honest, judging from Xuan Cang's experiences back then, Lin Zhao didn't really like this girl's character.

Jiao Rong's eyes reddened: "Can I speak to you in private?"

Lin Zhao glanced at her lower abdomen and nodded: "Lead the way."

Knowing that Lin Zhao could see through what she had been hiding all this time, Jiao Rong activated the soundproof array when she arrived at Lin Zhao's place and pleaded, "Master, please help me abort the child in my womb."

The Jiaolong clan has a three-year pregnancy period. She discovered it early; the child was just a vague existence, not yet formed, and had no intelligence. This period was the most suitable time to abort it.

Lin Zhao's expression remained unchanged: "Dragon Lord, do you not know you're really pregnant?"

Jiao Rong bit her lip and nodded: "It is difficult for the dragon clan to have offspring. If my father knew, he would not allow me to abort him and would force me to marry Xuan Chong."

Lin Zhao looked at her. She was not one to pry into other people's past; dwelling on past glories and mistakes was too exhausting. Unless absolutely necessary, Lin Zhao rarely inquired. "The choice was yours, the framing was your idea, and now you want to remove one of the outcomes? Little Princess of the Jiao Clan, do you regret it?"

Jiao Rong clenched her fair and soft fingers, and the pale blue scales under her eyes shone like teardrops in the sunlight.

"Yes, I regret it."

Although he managed to keep the child's existence a secret and successfully distance himself from Jiaozhu and Xuanchong, Jiaozhu had noticed Jiaorong's coldness towards him these past few days.

Because of the Jiao Lord's indifference, her life in the Jiao Clan became increasingly difficult.

Jiao Rong belatedly realized that, from childhood to adulthood, she seemed to have always wanted the unique favor of someone who could become her superior.

She was the lord of the Jiao clan. After learning that she was to be married off, she chose the most outstanding Xuan Cang. Xuan Cang refused to give her any favors, so she resorted to all means to frame him.

The still-developing flesh and blood in her arms did not arouse her maternal love. Instead, it reminded Jiao Rong that relying on the favor of those in power would only make her anxious and insecure, and she would be passively reduced to using her body as a tool for those in power.

Even if her bloodline were to be born, it would only become a tool for them to fight for power and profit.

Unless she herself becomes the one in power.

Lin Zhao sat in the chair, sizing up Jiao Rong: "I can help you, little princess. What can you give me?"

The Flood Dragon Lord gave her a spot in the teleportation array, Xuan Cang gave her scales, and the female pistil showed her goodwill.

So what can this arrogant little princess, whose personality and behavior make me suspicious, offer me?
Jiao Rong clenched his fist: "The next Jiao Lord must be absolutely loyal. I wonder if the Ancestral Phoenix Emperor would be willing to accept that?"

Lin Zhao's smile became less pronounced.

Lin Zhao wasn't surprised that Jiang Yubai, the third prince of the Great Qin Dynasty, could recognize her identity, but she was quite surprised that the little princess of the Jiao Clan, whom she had only met once and hadn't left a good impression on, could also guess it.

But thinking about it carefully, it's not surprising.

After all, if Jiao Rong really had no brains at all, she wouldn't have let Jiao Zhu get to this point and still not truly give up on her.

Lin Zhao hadn't forgotten what he'd given the Flood Dragon Lord. "The Flood Dragon Lord's loyalty is indeed worthy of this, but are you so certain that you can become the Flood Dragon Lord's successor?"

Jiao Rong thought of her brothers and sisters in the clan who were her competitors, clenched her fists, and a cold light flashed in her eyes: "I will, I definitely will."

Lin Zhao was not interested in the internal strife of the Jiaolong clan, nor did she care about the loyalty of the so-called future Jiaolong Lord, since she didn't trust Jiao Rong at all.

However, she was indeed extremely disgusted by the fact that her mother, the only person with the right to decide the fate of the bloodline, was being pressured because of a bloodline that was not yet fully formed.

So she searched through her spatial ring for a long time and finally found a box.

Lin Zhao had never actually practiced using abortion drugs, since who could know what they were for?

She found this thing in her hand when she was ransacking the demon city, and had kept it hidden in the corner of her spatial ring.

"The Cold Fragrance Pill can remove the unborn child while completely protecting the mother, leaving no aftereffects. Here, take the pill, but think carefully about whether you want to use it."

After Lin Zhao stood up, Jiao Rong opened the box and swallowed the pill.

By the time the Cold Fragrance Pill took effect, Lin Zhao had walked for an unknown amount of time.

After sensing that the mass of flesh and blood inside her body had completely disappeared, Jiao Rong wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and knelt down on one knee in the direction Lin Zhao had left.

Well, despite the changes, Jiao Rong will still pay the price for what happened in the first place. She owes Xuan Cang the debt, and in the end, she will apologize to Xuan Cang and make amends.
