Mr. Dragon Knight, the dragon girls are chasing you!

A chorus of concerned voices erupted from behind:

"Dragon Knight! What's wrong?"

"Is the food not to your liking? I'll go get it changed right away!"

"Slow down, slow down, do you need me to get a basin?"

Luo Ye leaned against the railing and dry heaved for a while, feeling as if the dozen or so spiritual dishes inside his stomach were engaged in a fierce battle.

He straightened up with difficulty and glanced back at the silver dragons staring at him expectantly. Their expressions were like those of kindergarten children watching their teacher eat all the candy they had given them, a mixture of anticipation and nervousness.

He took a deep breath, forcing back the surging emotion, and forced a nonchalant smile at them: "...Delicious, but too nourishing."

The silver dragons collectively breathed a sigh of relief; it would have been a terrible mistake to have made the dragon knight die from overeating.

Seraphina had somehow appeared beside him, holding a glass of water and handing it to him. The mischievous glint in her silver eyes was impossible to hide; she had clearly been watching the spectacle for quite some time.

"How is it? The Silver Dragon Clan's exclusive specialty, are you satisfied with the taste?"

Luo Ye took the water glass, tilted his head back and gulped down a few mouthfuls, washing away the sourness in his throat. He turned to look at her through gritted teeth: "Is your Silver Dragon Clan's way of hospitality about eating your guests to death on the spot?"

"That's a compliment," Serafina said, raising an eyebrow slightly, her tone carrying an air of self-assured arrogance.

"Those are the top-grade spiritual items of Silvermoon Peak. Countless people outside would love to get a single bite but can't."

"Then I really thank you." Luo Ye said helplessly.

Seeing his slightly frustrated expression, Seraphina's smile softened, and she gently wiped the remaining water from the corner of his mouth with a tender and affectionate gesture.

"Okay, I'm just kidding. If you really can't eat anymore, don't force yourself."

"You think I want to put on a brave face?" Luo Ye said helplessly.

"Your clansmen are all looking at me expectantly. If I don't eat, won't they be disappointed?"

Serafina followed his gaze and saw the group of silver dragons still peering in their direction. She smiled and said, "It's alright to spoil the fun a bit."

She turned to look at him, her silvery-white eyes holding a nonchalant seriousness: "Anyway, you'll have plenty of time to eat slowly later, there's no rush."

Luo Ye was taken aback: "...Later? What later?"

Seraphina didn't answer, but merely curved the corners of her mouth into a "guess" smile, then turned and walked back, her long, silvery-white hair swaying gently behind her, deliberately not giving him an answer.

This grand breakfast lasted for a full hour, with Serafina watching the whole thing, the entire tribe of silver dragons enthusiastically feeding her, and Luo Ye's stomach in dire need.

He was fed more than a dozen top-grade nourishing spiritual dishes, and by the end he was almost floating. When the plate was taken away, his legs went weak and he had to hold onto the edge of the table for a while before he could stand up straight.

But it must be admitted that those magical items really do work.

The two dragon energies that had previously felt slightly disconnected within him were now nourished and made more docile and obedient, circulating at a speed more than 10% faster than in the morning. Even his back, which had been sore from the ordeal last night, felt much better.

The temple maids, who were clearing away the dishes, maintained a professional demeanor but couldn't help but smile, secretly watching the spectacle the whole time.

The army of silver dragons outside the window finally stopped watching and feeding them, and lazily lay on the cliff wall to bask in the sun and rest.

Several silver dragon cubs rolled and frolicked among their mother's wings, occasionally letting out soft, contented moans, filling the entire Silver Moon Peak with a lazy and gentle atmosphere.

Serafina slowly straightened up, her fair and slender wrist gently reaching out to grasp Luo Ye's wrist. Her palm was slightly cool and soft to the touch.

"Come on, let me show you around the temple to help you digest your food."

She took his hand and slowly stepped into the winding, long white jade corridor of the temple. The morning light fell on their clasped wrists and spread all the way into the depths of the temple.

She led him through layers of moonflower forests, finally stopping at a secluded hot spring pool in the back mountains.

The pool water shimmered with a pale silver luster, and wisps of steam rose from the surface. Moonflower petals drifted down into the water, releasing a delicate floral fragrance from the steam.

Luo Ye squatted down and reached out to test the water temperature. As soon as his fingertips touched the water, he felt a wisp of pure and warm Moonlight Dragon Power enter through his fingertips and flow through his meridians throughout his body. It felt so good that his eyelids twitched.

"This is the unique Moon Essence Hot Spring of our Silver Dragon Clan, the most top-level dragon vein nourishing secret realm on the entire continent."

Serafina gently released her grip on Luo Ye's wrist and languidly and gracefully sat down on a smooth, round natural moonstone by the pool.

"The pool water is infused with pure dragon scale powder that has been shed over thousands of years by my Silver Dragon Clan, as well as the ultimate essence of the Moonflower Flower, which blooms only once every three hundred years and has a flowering period of only three days. It has been formed by the spiritual energy of the dragon vein for tens of thousands of years."

"For contractors who are compatible with the power of the Moonflower Dragon, this is an unparalleled medicinal bath that can stabilize their origin, refine their physique, and eradicate hidden injuries. It is priceless and impossible to find in the outside world."

As she finished speaking, a sly and ambiguous smile appeared on her lips. She deliberately slowed her speech and added, "You should take a good soak. It will be quite beneficial for your bodies after all that commotion last night."

Upon hearing this, Luo Ye deftly began to remove his outer garment.

He let out a very satisfied sigh as he slid into the pool. His whole body was enveloped by the warm and gentle water, and all the soreness and fatigue from the past few days and the previous night's struggle seemed to dissipate as if gently rubbed away by a hand.

He comfortably closed his eyes, completely relaxing his entire body, letting his body float in the silvery pool water.

Nourished by the purest moonlight spiritual energy of the hot spring, the two top-tier dragon forces within his body, originally one dark and one golden with opposing attributes, became increasingly harmonious and their circulation speed steadily increased.

He could clearly sense that his magic power limit was slowly increasing, and the utilization rate of the fusion of the two dragon powers was also steadily increasing little by little.

The residual spiritual energy from the various spiritual materials and treasures he had consumed during breakfast was now being gently refined by the hot spring's spiritual energy, fully integrating into his body and origin without any waste, thus comprehensively tempering his dragon knight physique.

Ye leaned lazily against the wall of the hot spring pool, her tone languid: "So comfortable."

"Soak as long as you want, no one will rush you." Serafina sat by the pool, her long legs elegantly crossed, the hem of her wide silver robe hanging above the water's surface. Her toes swayed, occasionally touching the water's surface, stirring up a small circle of tiny splashes.

Luo Ye squinted at her, then changed to an even lazier posture in the pool.

He was just about to close his eyes and enjoy this rare moment of peace when he heard her slowly add, "But remember to let me know when you're done soaking—"

She leaned forward slightly, the silvery-white hair slipping from her shoulder and almost brushing against his nose: "I still have an old score to settle with you."

Luo Ye opened his eyes instantly, his "comfortable, almost sleepy" state completely gone: "What bill?"

"The bill for last night." Serafina tilted her head, her silver eyes gleaming with a hint of cunning and a deliberately slowed languor.

"At first, someone was very bold, holding onto the back of my neck and refusing to let go, touching the dragon's horns and its tail—"

"Tell me, how should I settle this score with you?"

Luo Ye's lips twitched. He leaned against the edge of the pool, looking at her, and remained silent for two seconds before speaking: "Then you didn't stop me last night, did you? You were very cooperative."

Seraphina smiled sweetly and reached out to pinch Luo Ye's cheek: "How is it? Do you like it? You're getting a good deal and still acting innocent? That's not being innocent~"
