I, disguised as a white dragon, was supported by the state.

Ordinary people naturally cannot come to the White Dragon's habitat.

Even her family thought she had been seconded to a classified national project.

"If Mom knew I was serving... no, I mean raising a white dragon, she'd probably be scared to death!" Thinking about his mother's possible reaction after learning the truth, Guan Mi put his hands behind his back and chuckled to himself.

……

"What's making you so happy?" Bai Lin asked.

The car had been modified and wasn't cramped, but he still felt a little uncomfortable inside.

Two days have passed since Guan Mi returned from Yatou Mountain. The rectification work has been completed, and Bai Lin has also remotely inspected his "Dragon Palace" via video.

“This is the first time I’ve ridden in a car with Mr. Bai,” Guan Mi said softly.

We've only known each other for a little over a month, right?

Bai Lin couldn't understand what was so happy about this.

My secretary, Mr. Long, can be quite silly at times.

"Mr. Bai, look outside!" Guan Mi waved his hand and said.

Bai Lin peeked out of the car window and looked out.

The city skyline is clearly visible in the distance.

Even from a great distance, he could still see the intercity line formed by rows of tall buildings.

The world has changed so much compared to twenty years ago.

"This is our human city..." Guan Mi introduced with great interest.

Bai Lin listened silently, the city in his sight sometimes near, sometimes far.

Thinking about the news he had seen recently, he was filled with emotion.

If I hadn't transmigrated, I'd probably be just another ordinary person in the city right now.

Those days were ordinary, but not bad at all.

Bai Lin looked down at his scales and claws, and suddenly regretted joining the Dragon Transformation Sect. If he had been less talented and hadn't been chosen by that old man as a direct disciple, he would have learned other mainstream techniques and wouldn't be in this terrible state now!

Being a dragon is no good at all!

……

"It would be so great to be a dragon!" Zhang Yu looked at the white forest in the distance with envy on his face.

He looked tired, with very noticeable dark circles under his eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that today is the day of his "housewarming," he wouldn't have wanted to leave the lab.

After receiving the "water arrow" from Bai Lin, he took it to the laboratory and worked day and night with several researchers on it.

Even though no experimental instruments could detect its special properties, the terrible effects shown when a small amount of residue was used on animals were enough to make people understand its extraordinary nature.

The researchers were unaware of Bai Long's existence. Unable to get an answer from him, they made wild guesses and even suspected that Bai Long had obtained alien technology.

Zhang Yu understood even more how extraordinary Bai Long was.

Therefore, after receiving the relocation notice, he rushed over without stopping, intending to live in the office on Yatou Mountain from now on.

The space here is larger, and it's closer to the white dragon, making it easier to observe it up close.

The research lab is located at the foot of the mountain.

Standing next to him was Lei Yao.

Lei Yao was still wearing his camouflage military uniform, his face was dark, and he looked almost the same as before.

He spent very little time with Bai Lin these days, mostly training and patrolling.

Now that Bai Lin has moved to Yatou Mountain, his patrol area has expanded, and he has a lot more manpower under his command. At this moment, he is with Zhang Yu and plans to go and greet Bai Lin first.

Bai Lin is the nominal owner here.

For the first month, they got along very well with the white dragon, and it didn't cause any trouble. He just hoped that nothing unexpected would happen in the remaining days.

Just as Lei Yao was thinking this, his eyes suddenly widened and he blurted out, "Holy crap!"

Chapter 22 Soaring Through the Clouds and Controlling Rain

This was the first time Zhang Yu had ever seen Lei Yao so out of control.

"What... Holy crap!"

He changed his tone to the same one as Lei Yao halfway through his sentence.

Not to mention the two of them, even Liu Chongyu, who was explaining things to Guan Mi, was completely shocked and dumbfounded.

In their sight, the white dragon suddenly took to the air, stepping on auspicious clouds, and flew out of the lake, leaping into the sky with graceful movements!

After circling in the air several times, it slowly landed under a large locust tree halfway up the mountain.

"It can actually fly!" Zhang Yu exclaimed in disbelief.

From the moment the white dragon spat out saliva and saved a person who was almost on the verge of death, everyone realized that this white dragon was extraordinary.

They had wondered together whether the other could fly through the clouds like in the legends, and they never expected it to be true!

Lei Yao slowly loosened his clenched fist, a hint of dejection flashing across his face.

He was nominally in charge of Bailong's security, but in reality, he was more responsible for monitoring Bailong's movements.

For the nation's top leadership, stability is the top priority.

If Bai Long becomes unruly and threatens the safety of the people, Lei Yao believes that the country will spare no effort to eliminate him.

However, after observing it for so long, seeing it crawling in and out of the pool every day, and occasionally crawling outside to sunbathe, everyone thought that its claws were for climbing. Unexpectedly, it actually demonstrated the legendary ability.

This is a flying dragon!

In that case, wouldn't all those defense plans against the White Dragon become useless?

Lei Yao found it laughable that not long ago, the higher-ups were still debating whether or not to set up an interception net upstream and downstream of Yazhao Lake to prevent the white dragon from escaping.

They can just fly!

Seeing his ever-changing expression, Zhang Yu guessed what was going on and comforted him, "Mr. Bai is a good dragon and won't make things difficult for Captain Lei."

Lei Yao sighed: "I hope so!"

He could sense the arrogance inherent in this white dragon.

It gets along well with everyone now, but what if it causes a misunderstanding one day?

Or perhaps it simply wants to leave on its own whim—should we stop it?

He always felt it wasn't quite right to entrust the stability of the surrounding area and the safety of the people to the conscience of Yitiaolong.

Zhang Yu didn't have Lei Yao's concerns.

A dragon that can fly—wouldn't that be even more valuable for research?

He clenched his fists, extremely excited.

Bai Lin was in a bad mood at all.

He had already seen the solitary grave under the big locust tree, but he did not sense any unusual presence.

Yatou Mountain, Yazhao Lake...

This place is just as unremarkable as that Dragon Fall Valley.

He didn't sense the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy!

The sun was blazing.

The area under the old locust tree was empty.

The beauty he had envisioned was gone, not even a trace of her soul remained.

The miracle did not happen.

She vanished completely from this world!

Bai Lin's torso was wrapped around the old locust tree. He stared blankly at the lonely grave, his heart filled with sorrow.

He suddenly felt like crying.

Knowing that many people were watching, he could only try his best to control his emotions.

However, looking at that lonely tombstone, the deep-seated memories poured out like a floodgate opening, filling his mind with every little detail, and the bitterness in his heart still overflowed.

Over the course of a century, he thought his emotions had become indifferent and that he had long since let go of the past.

Only now did he realize that he had never had a moment of peace in his heart.

He raised his head, looking at the azure dome, and his dragon eyes became moist.

Everyone else watched from a distance.

They couldn't see Bai Lin's expression clearly, but their expressions were very similar.

No one has yet recovered from the shock of the white dragon soaring through the clouds.

Zhang Yu's hands were clasped tightly together, his gaze burning.

As he was reveling in the extraordinary qualities of the dragon race that he had learned during his training, he suddenly heard a thunderous boom.

Looking up, he suddenly noticed that dark clouds had appeared in the sky.

The dark clouds gathered and covered the sky, making the entire Duck Head Mountain gloomy.

Streaks of lightning flashed through the clouds, and the rumbling thunder shook the earth.

"Quickly find a place to take shelter from the rain," Lei Yao shouted.

Zhang Yu jogged to catch up with him, panting as they arrived at a small pavilion about a hundred meters away.

The two had just run into the pavilion when a torrential downpour began.

Like the Milky Way bursting its banks, the rain was fierce and intense.

Amidst the lightning and thunder, only the ripples on the lake's surface could be vaguely seen.

Zhang Yu gasped for breath, patted his chest, and sighed, "How can the weather change so suddenly?"

Lei Yao's face turned serious, and he suddenly asked, "Could it be it?"

Zhang Yu was so shocked that he forgot to breathe.

Legend has it that dragons can indeed control clouds and rain!

"Could it really be it?" he exclaimed.

Looking at the gloomy sky, he wondered again: "But what is its reason for doing this?"

Lei Yao didn't understand either.

He was just suspicious.

This white dragon has plenty of opportunities to cause trouble; there's no need for it to be here.

“Maybe I’m wrong,” he said.

Zhang Yu exclaimed excitedly, "You're right, it must be it! Could it be the legendary tribulation?"

Overcoming the tribulation?

Lei Yao glanced at him, then shook his head and remained silent.

It's ridiculous!

He never expected that this doctor, who once held the most steadfast belief in science, would now even talk about undergoing tribulation.

Liu Chongyu and Guan Mi were also discussing it.

"Could this be the work of it too?" Liu Chongyu retreated to the eaves, looking at the lightning and thunder in the sky with disbelief on his face.

Guan Mi shook his head blankly.

She was still reeling from the fact that the dragon she was raising could fly.

"Didn't it tell you that?" Liu Chongyu asked.
