Lu Yu flipped the card in his hand, examining it with curiosity. “Is this a bank card usable throughout the Ten Thousand Dragon Country?”

“Absolutely,” Zhao Qingya confirmed with a smile. “It grants access anywvhere in the country. Consider yourself a wealthy and influential figure here now. Not a bad life, wouldn’t you say?”

Lu Yu offered a slight nod. “Indeed, not bad at all.”

He slipped the card into his pocket and gestured farewell to Zhao Qingya. “I’ll head back and rest for now. If anything arises, don’t hesitate to contact me.”

“Actually, Lu Yu,” Zhao Qingya began, her expression turning serious. “My time in Skyplume City is drawing to a close. I’m heading north, to Black Gold City. It’s a dangerous area, the source of the raging fire dragon outbreak.”

“I see,” Lu Yu replied thoughtfully. “Does your departure from Skyplume City mean you’re relinquishing your duties with the hunting team?”

“No. There are many more unresolved issues in Black Gold City,” Zhao Qingya explained. “Dangerous dragons run rampant, and it’s my responsibility as mayor to investigate such threats personally. After all, the danger is escalating, and my position demands a closer look.”

She shuffled some documents on her desk. “Head back and prepare for departure. Once you’re ready, we’ll set off together. Having your assistance will undoubtedly expedite the resolution of these problems.”

Lu Yu considered her proposal for a moment before nodding in agreement. “Of course, I’m happy to help as your assistant. However, I do have aspirations to visit the capital once this is settled.”

“The capital?” Zhao Qingya echoed, a surprised look on her face. “Absolutely, there’s no issue with that. Recent events here have been quite eventful, and I need to report everything to the king in person.”

“Excellent,” Lu Yu said with satisfaction. “Then it’s a deal. After this mission, we head to the capital. There, I hope to meet with the king and reconnect with some old friends.’

A smile graced Zhao Qingya’s lips. “Of course, you will.”

With that, Lu Yu pushed open the office door and exited.

He returned to his detached villa, where he found Jiang Xun lounging by the pool, enjoying an iced drink served to him by the tamed Frost Dragon.

Jiang Xun scrambled to his feet upon seeing Lu Yu approach, a sheepish grin spreading across his face. “Don’t get the wrong idea! I’m not slacking off; it’s just… well, there’s not much for me to do here right now.”

Lu Yu chuckled and joined him by the pool. “Relax; there’s no need to be tense. How’s the taming process going with the Frost Dragon?”

“He’s become quite friendly with me,” Jiang Xun reported proudly. “See, he even fetched me this chilled drink!” He gestured towards the Frost Dragon with a pleased expression.

“Excellent,” Lu Yu praised. “Focus on nurturing him and getting him through that infancy stage as quickly as possible. We want him to reach maturity soon.”

Jiang Xun’s eyes widened in surprise. “Wait, Brother Lu! Deputy Mayor already? That’s some incredible speed! Not even Zhao Ming from the hunting team has such a rapid promotion!”

Lu Yu shrugged nonchalantly. “Honestly, I haven’t the faintest clue who you’re talking about, nor do I care. This speed feels perfectly justified considering my contributions to that woman.”

“Indeed, Brother Lu! You’ve more than earned this position!” Jiang Xun exclaimed with admiration.

“However,” Lu Yu continued, his tone shifting, “we might be heading to Black Gold City soon. It’s located north of here and is apparently quite dangerous. That’s where the raging fire dragon originated.”

“The exact situation there remains unclear, but it’s safe to assume things are far more serious than what we dealt with here.’

Jiang Xun nodded solemnly. “Big Brother, now that I have a tamed dragon, can I assist you?”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Absolutely,” Lu Yu replied readily. “In fact, your presence within the hunting team as my trusted confidante is invaluable.”

“So, I’m going to focus on increasing your strength.”

Jiang Xun’s eyes gleamed with anticipation. “Increase my strength? Are you bringing me to fight monsters, or something else?”

“The most straightforward way to boost your power is a shopping spree. Gear up with top-notch equipment and armor, not to mention a variety of stat-boosting potions.”

“Let’s head out. The biggest shopping center in the city awaits. They have practically everything we need.”

Jiang Xun barely contained his excitement. “Sounds fantastic! But won’t all this cost a fortune?”

“Don’t sweat it,” Lu Yu reassured him. “My stay in the Ten Thousand Dragon Kingdom is temporary. I have bigger fish to fry—finding my family and friends.

“Money here holds little value for me. Besides, with my abilities, running out of funds is hardly a concern.”

Jiang Xun released a breath of relief. “That’s a relief.”

Leaving the villa, Lu Yu and Jiang Xun made their way through the bustling streets, arriving at the shopping center in no time. Located conveniently in the city center, it was easily accessible on foot.

The colossal building resembled a giant ring, with an open-air center showcasing a menagerie of imprisoned dragons—all up for grabs. The bustling entrance teemed with customers, a constant stream of people buying and selling wares. Lu Yu and Jiang Xun weaved through the throng, their first stop being a pharmacy overflowing with countless vials of colorful potions.

Lu Yu scanned the shelves, his eyes lingering on the diverse selection. A proprietor soon approached, eager to assist.

“Gentlemen, how may I be of service?”

“Do you have any potions that accelerate a dragon’s growth? Something that expedites a young dragon’s transition to adulthood?”

The shopkeeper’s face contorted into a grimace. “Sir, such a potion is exceptionally rare, far beyond our humble stock. These precious concoctions vanish the moment they hit the shelves, snatched up by eager customers.” Lu Yu furrowed his brow. “Is this typical?”

“New to these parts, I see?” The shopkeeper chuckled. “Everyone wants their dragons to mature quickly. It’s no surprise these potions are in such high demand.”

“Fair enough,” Lu Yu conceded, turning to Jiang Xun. “Let’s explore other options for now.”

“Sounds good to me,” Jiang Xun agreed with a shy smile.

“Do you carry any other dragon-enhancing potions?” Lu Yu inquired.

“Of course!” The shopkeeper’s demeanor brightened considerably. “This one here, the Scale Hardening Potion, fortifies those scales like no other. And this beauty here? The Claw Strengthening Potion is guaranteed to make those claws razor-sharp. We’ve got potions for stamina, speed, strength, and even intelligence enhancement!”

“Think of them as supplements. Each dose promises improvement in a specific area. They come in small, medium, and large sizes, with varying degrees of effectiveness. Naturally, the benefits are more pronounced during a dragon’s youth. So, if you’re aiming for optimal growth, focus on administering them during the young dragon stage—but of course, moderation is key..”
