Chapter 203: Young Dragon Princess
“Father, you’re so clumsy, you can’t even catch me. Nah-nah-nah.”
In the Dragon Palace of Donghai, the old Dragon King was dotingly playing with his daughter.
Although he was the ruler of Donghai, when faced with his playful young daughter, he turned into a doting father.
Seeing his daughter’s small and adorable appearance made him very happy, “Hahaha, is Father clumsy or is little Shuang’er just too clever?”
“??!!”

At this moment, watching the scene, everyone was confused. The reason being, the Dragon Princess in the image was clearly just a little girl.
She looked nothing like the grown-up Dragon Princess standing before them now. Pureblood dragons were born powerful, unlike those that cultivated to become dragons; their growth period was measured in thousands of years.
The Dragon Princess still being so young meant this must have been several thousand years ago.
Could the grudge between Ye Xuan and the Dragon Princess really date back thousands of years?
To be honest, even the transmigrator Mo Qingshang didn’t expect to see such a scene.
In the novel he read before transmigrating, it never detailed the specific grudge between Ye Xuan and the Dragon Princess.
However, the deeper the grudge, the better. Although he regretted not being able to kill Ye Xuan himself, he wasn’t sentimental.
After all, he wasn’t the original Mo Qingshang but just a transmigrator. Mo Qingshang’s grudge was something he could address on the side, but his main goal was to show off and gain face.
Creating a large harem filled with celestial beauties was the dream of many transmigrators. After Ye Xuan’s death, he planned to fulfill this grand ambition.
“It looks like the young Dragon Princess was naive and caught Ye Xuan’s attention.” He spoke to the people around him.
Everyone frowned slightly.
The master of the Sehnjiang Sect directed his gaze to the Dragon Princess and said, “I heard that every part of a dragon’s body is valuable. If Ye Xuan targeted the young Dragon Princess, it’s not impossible.”
“I don’t remember anything from my childhood.” The Dragon Princess said.
Surviving narrowly, Ye Xuan felt immense relief, but, remembering he had been saved, he forced himself to calm down. After spitting out some water, he bowed to the little girl who had saved him and said,
“Ye Xuan, a commoner, thanks the Dragon Princess for saving my life.”
“Huh? How do you know I’m the Dragon Princess?”
The little girl asked Ye Xuan.
“Uh... The Dragon Princess has dragon horns on her head, so you must be the Dragon Princess.”
Ye Xuan replied.
“Oh.” The Dragon Princess touched her forehead and laughed, “I forgot I have horns. Others are usually terrified when they see me. Why aren’t you afraid?”
“Why should I be afraid? The Dragon Princess saved my life.” Ye Xuan said.
“But I’m a monster.” The Dragon Princess asked innocently, “Aren’t humans afraid of monsters?”
————
“Monster?” Hearing the Dragon Princess call herself a monster, many people were puzzled.
Future Qin Zhenren explained, “It is said that long ago, there was no distinction between good and evil, only between races. When the gods left the human world, the postnatal humans called all other intelligent races monsters.”
(TL: postnatal humans are just the first humans that walked the earth and cultivated.)
“Is there such a past?”
“Yes, the peaceful coexistence of humans and other races was unimaginable thousands of years ago. At that time, all races competed for the land. Only because humans were protected by the gods did they become the dominant race.” Qin Zhenren said.
“At that time, humans had no cultivators and were terrified of monsters... not to mention, in human eyes, the pinnacle of monsters, the Dragon Clan.”
“Who would’ve thought the Dragon Princess saved Ye Xuan’s life, yet Ye Xuan later repaid kindness with enmity. Truly unforgivable.” Mo Qingshang seized the opportunity to flatter the Dragon Princess.
But then he thought, as the Divine Emperor Sword Master, he needed some dignity, so he lightly coughed and put on a serious expression, “Dragon Princess, rest assured, justice will prevail, and Ye Xuan will meet a just end.”
At this moment, he didn’t notice the Dragon Princess’s strange expression. The Dragon Princess didn’t remember having such a memory from her childhood.
She had no recollection of the events in the scenes. If it weren’t for the Three Lives Mirror being infallible, she would have suspected someone had tampered with it.
