Yun Jiuge carried Zi Shang in her arms and went to Wanhua Spiritual Garden to find her son.

Ever since Cute Little Baby suffered from food scarcity in the Secret Realm, it had the motivation to plant edible plants in Wanhua Spiritual Garden.

She could see from afar that Wanhua Spiritual Garden was surrounded by green thorn bushes bearing sweet fruits. White Dancing Ladies Ginger, which looked like marshmallows, danced in the wind. There was a swing made of intertwining red willow branches.

At this time, Little Dragon and Little Grass were playing with a brightly-colored fruit the size of a human head. As soon as one of them caught the fruit, he would throw it to the other.

Little Grass was very agile. Regardless of where Little Dragon tossed the fruit, Little Grass never failed to catch it. However, Little Dragon was at a more advantageous position. After all, he had a small golden tail that was very nimble.

As they played with the brightly-colored fruit, it gradually turned red. In the end, it released a sweet fragrance.

“It’s ready to eat!” Cute Little Baby shouted and made the completely red fruit float to him.

“I want to give this to my mother!”

“I want to give this to my Mistress!” Little Dragon and Little Grass said in unison.

“That’s a must,” Cute Little Baby said in a loud voice. After that, he turned his head to Yun Jiuge, who was walking to the Wanhua Spiritual Garden and smiled at her obsequiously saying, “Mistress, am I right?”

“You’re quite filial indeed. I’m glad to see that my love is reciprocated,” replied Yun Jiuge as she sauntered into the garden.

Little Dragon and Little Grass threw themselves on her. Compared to Little Dragon, Little Grass was less unkempt. His sweat evaporated into Demon Qi and returned to his body.

On the other hand, Little Dragon looked like he had been pulled out of the water. His golden sweat dripped onto the soil, which absorbed it quickly.

“What kind of fruit is this?” Yun Jiuge took the red fruit from Cute Little Baby. The Seven Star Rune on its skin piqued her interest.

“This is a Seven Star Fruit. The flowers blossom only every 700 years, and it’d take another 700 years for the tree to bear fruit. The fruit becomes ripe only after it has absorbed the purest Elemental Qi.” Cute Little Baby had planted this tree in Wanhua Spiritual Garden a long time ago. He returned to the Wanhua Spiritual Garden in time for the harvesting, so he asked Little Grass and Little Dragon to help him.

“How many Seven Star Fruits do you have?” Yun Jiuge asked, remembering Blossoming Flowering Tree’s words in the past that Seven Star Fruits could help increase his Cultivation. She could trade the Seven Star Fruits for Floral Essence Spiritual Water.

“We’ve a lot of these,” replied Cute Little Baby while pointing behind him. The clouds dispersed, revealing a large, black tree with seven branches in equal length. Brightly-colored fruits hung like lanterns from the leafless branches. There were about 1,000 of them.

“Pack 50 of these for me,” Yun Jiuge instructed Cute Little Baby.

“You want to give them to others?” Cute Little Baby was surprised. Others had always tried to gain the Celestial Palace’s favor by sending them gifts, and it was never the other way round.

“They’re not for giving away, but for me to use as a bargaining chip.” Yun Jiuge told him about her plan to give the Demon King the Seven Star Fruits in exchange for Floral Essence Spiritual Water.

“Can’t we ask them to give it to us as a tribute?” Cute Little Baby was puzzled. They should be honored that the Celestial Palace was asking for their things.

“No, we can’t.” Yun Jiuge glared at Cute Little Baby. Times had changed. The Celestial Palace was no longer as powerful as it used to be. If they continued to request for things for free, they would just be setting themselves up for trouble.

“Fine!” Cute Little Baby pursed his lips. He gestured with his hand and sent 50 Seven Star Fruits flying over to a red willow basket.

“Do you need this as well?” Little Dragon stared at the delicious-looking red fruit, reluctant to part with it. Little Grass and he had worked hard to ripen the fruit. His mother had not even tasted it yet.

“No, this one is for us.” Yun Jiuge opened the Seven Star Fruit. Its seeds looked like tiny rubies, emanating pure Elemental Qi.

Cute Little Baby did not eat it. Most of it was consumed by Little Dragon and Little Grass. They left some for the Treasure-hunting Scorpion and his wife.

“We’ll just give them 10.” After Yun Jiuge ate the Seven Star Fruit, she changed her mind immediately. As the fruit was brimming with Elemental Qi, a mortal Cultivator would be able to ascend to the heavenly realm with just one fruit.

“Five is enough. The Flower Essence Spiritual Water is nothing valuable,” said Cute Little Baby, who was much stingier than Yun Jiuge. Since the Celestial Palace was not as wealthy as in the past, they needed to be more frugal with their resources.

“Alright, five then.” Yun Jiuge put the red willow basket into her Dimensional Storage. After that, she picked Little Dragon up and kissed his cheek, “Darling, time to bathe and sleep.”

“Little Grass and Cute Little Baby, I’ll come play with you tomorrow.” Little Dragon waved at his friends before hugging his mother’s neck. Yun Jiuge and Little Dragon returned to the Golden Dragon Hall.

“Qing’er, prepare the bath for the young Crown Prince,” ordered Yun Jiuge. Little Dragon needed to wash off all the sweat and deep clean his scales.

“Yes.” Qing’er left immediately.

Yun Jiuge ate dinner with Little Dragon before bringing him to the bathing pool.

All four sides of the golden bath had dragon sconces that poured narrow streams of water. The bottom of the pool had glittering gold tiles, which gave a sparkling effect to the warm water.

Little Dragon jumped into the bathing pool, causing the water to splash everywhere. He frolicked in the bathing pool, enjoying himself thoroughly.

Zi Shang rolled out from Yun Jiuge’s pocket. He plopped into the water and swam towards his son.

“Oh, it’s Eggy!” Little Dragon lunged at Zi Shang intuitively. He wanted to grab Eggy, so that he could play catch with his mother.

“Be careful with the egg.” Yun Jiuge felt her heart stop. She was well aware of her son’s strength. If Little Dragon really smashed the egg, he would kill his own father.

Although Zi Shang was a white egg, he was still very agile. He dodged his son by moving around the bathing pool, refusing to let him catch him.

Little Dragon had a great time. The water from the bathing pool splashed everywhere and drenched Yun Jiuge completely.

“Knock it off, you two.” Yun Jiuge wiped the water on her face. She wanted to jump into the bathing pool to sort them out.

Zi Shang wanted to tell her something, but he could not write in the water. Thus, he goaded his son into chasing him.

Yun Jiuge observed Zi Shang carefully and discovered that he was swimming in a regular pattern in the bathing pool. She could make out a lifelike dragon silhouette from the trails left by Zi Shang in the water.

After Little Dragon chased the white egg for some time, his forehead shone with a golden ray which then spread throughout his entire body.

Chubby Little Dragon turned into a Dragon with long whiskers and shiny scales right away. His five claws were extremely strong.

Yun Jiuge had always fretted over why her son had never transformed into a dragon. She wondered if there was something wrong with him, so she went to ask the Dragon Clan privately about this. They could not tell her what was the problem with her son either, because they had never seen a Golden Dragon with Holy Power.

Now that her son had transformed into a Dragon successfully, she could finally relax. The Dragon Form was the most comfortable form for a Baby Dragon.

When Zi Shang saw that his son had finally learnt how to transform into a dragon, he flew back into Yun Jiuge’s pocket immediately. As an egg, he had very little stamina. The exercise earlier almost killed him.

“Again, again!” Little Dragon swished his tail in the bathing pool excitedly. He did not feel tired at all.

“Playtime’s over. Lie down now so that I can help you clean your scales.” Yun Jiuge dragged her son to the shallow part of the bathing pool and started to help him scrub his scales.
