Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 358: Hardship of Tianhei

Yue Xuexia stared at the black dragon hatchling, Long Tianhei, who was trembling under her gaze. After looking for a while longer, a small smile appeared at the corner of her lips, and she finally summoned all her spiritual beasts. Before the eyes of everyone in the temples, a black-winged tiger cub, a sentient white tarantula, and a pure white flood dragon appeared on the spot. The size of these children had increased a lot. Thankfully, they can shrink their size so they can lean on their mistress’s body.

The black-winged tiger cub, Yueyue, asked, "Master, there are dragons! Are we in the immortal world?}

"No. This is the dragon nest in the Mortal Realm. Go play with everyone," said Yue Xuexia to the tiger cub who had shrunk to the size of an ordinary cat.

As for the white tarantula, Mengyue, Xiao Meng for short, hid in her mistress’s hair. She can feel eyes on her, making her uncomfortable.

{Master, so many scary auras. Xiao Meng is scared~}

Yue Xuexia lightly rubs the white spider and says, "They are all seniors. Come greet them with your brothers, Xiao Meng."

The white tarantula, Mangyue, slides down from her mistress’s hair and says, "H-Hello. My name is Xiao Meng. I am Mistress’s little spider.}

"Is this a sentient white tarantula? How come there is something weird about this little one?" asked Azure Dragon’s ancestor, Long Tianlan, while staring at Xiao Meng.

Even Long Tianhong stares at the little spider and the winged tiger. "One possessed the bloodline of Byakko, the White Tiger King, and the other was... a soul-eating spider’s bloodline. How come both of them had mutated? Is it because they signed a contract with the Moon Goddess?"

On the other hand, around the neck of Yue Xuexia is a sleeping white snake. Lately, Baiyue had been eating a lot thanks to its siblings. Though his bloodline is weakest, it’s the purest. That’s why he is the weakest in the realm and the slowest to evolve. Even so, his mistress never stopped supporting him. His resources are sometimes twice or thrice as large as his siblings. His siblings never get jealous, as they know that the resources he needs are a lot larger than theirs and instead sometimes find him some bigger prey so he can have a full stomach while they are hunting.

They’ve recently eaten a lot of sea monsters while their mistress is busy doing something in the smithy, and they still haven’t completely digested it, making them fall into hibernation mode. Ever since all the spiritual beasts of the Moon Goddess have come out. Long Tianhei only has the small white snake sleeping wrapped around the neck of his mistress in his eyes. He carefully approached him, staring at the small white snake in a daze.

Roar~~

It was just that when he reached out a hand to touch the white snake, a black tiger cub jumped on him after he was wrapped in a thick spider web from a white spider that appeared beside the sleeping white snake.

Yueyue turned to his real form and already had the size of an adult tiger. He was stepping on the black dragon hatchling who was covered in spider web.

{What do you want to do to my brother during his enlightenment!? } shouted the winged black tiger.

Long Tianhei said, "I... didn’t do anything!"

Hmph!

Xiao Meng said, "Master, bring Erge back inside the small world. He cannot be disturbed. He had eaten a lot the last time. His realm should increase when he wakes up.}

Yue Xuexia said, "Alright. I will bring him back. Do you want to stay or not?"

"Leave with Erge and Dage," said Xiao Meng.

"Alright. You can come out when Baiyue is awake," said the Moon Goddess as her three spiritual beasts once again disappeared.

Sobs~

She felt bad for the black dragon hatchling who was crying while wrapped in a cocoon. Everyone felt bad, but no one can blame the spiritual beasts. It is normal for them to be protective. After all, they all have one master, and they treat each other as siblings. So in the eyes of Yueyue and Mengyue, Long Tianhei is a stranger that wanted to take advantage of their sibling, and their reactions are normal.

{I wasn’t planning on hurting him. I just want to see him closer. Boohoo~}

Long Tianhong was helping the stupid black dragon out of the spider silk while scolding him and said, "Who told you to approach without a sound? Of course, they will mistake you for a pervert!"

"Maybe you should just sign a contract with the Moon Goddess. It doesn’t need to be a soul contract like the other three. It can be a simple subordinate contract that can be cancelled anytime. With a contract, they should believe you are not an enemy," suggested Long Tianlan.

Taiyang said, "A dragon king wanted to sign a contract with Xue’er? You should at least list down what advantage this temporary contract can give to Xue’er."

"I don’t mind, as long as you help Baiyue make preparations to become a true dragon. I can sign the contract," said Yue Xiaxia. She knew that the greatest dream of Baiyue was to become a true dragon.

The Obsidian Dragon King was delighted and immediately signed a contract with the Moon Goddess, but before he could celebrate, he felt a cold gaze on him and turned his head only to see the smiling Moon Goddess looking at him. But this smile felt fake and terrifying.

"But asking for permission for marriage is another story. I will only allow that once Baiyue becomes a real dragon. Do you understand, Xiao Hei?" The Moon Goddess asked.

The dragons in the area were all stunned while the obsidian dragon king was nodding its head like a pecking chicken. If they had seen that correctly, they would have seen a lightning imprint appearing on the forehead of the Moon Goddess. As beings of the Immortal World, there is no way they will mistake insignia for something else. As that is one hidden taboo that is connected to an infamous clan for its bloodline.

Tan Bingyu said, "Mistress, the materials are all here. They said we are free to pick what we need."

"I’m going over now," said Yue Xuexia to Tan Bingyu. She bowed her head slightly to the seniors before backing away.

Long Tianlan and Long Tianhong pat the shoulder of their sworn brother, Long Tianhei. That insignia says everything, and their brother’s path to marriage is harder compared to the others. After all, that’s the lightning god’s bloodline. Well known for their overprotectiveness towards their family and everything on their side.

"Good luck!"

"Sniff~ You bastards, stop gloating!"

"Hahaha~ you have someone from the Royal Lei Clan as a future in-law. If you are successful, then it’s a success for life. If you fail, then... Hahaha~" said Long Tianhong.

Long Tianlan said, "Even though Baiyue is just a spiritual beast of the Moon Goddess, just the fact that she possessed that bloodline meant you would suffer a lot. Do your best! That’s the only white dragon we have seen in thousands of years."

"At least you are lucky that the one who fell in love wasn’t the Moon Goddess herself. You only need to convince the Moon Goddess of Baiyue’s hand. On the other hand, the one who wanted to marry the Moon Goddess had to suffer the most. Immortal Moon Palace and the Royal Lei Clan. Whoever wants to marry her is a masochist! Hahaha~" said Long Tianhong while laughing his ass out.

What he didn’t know was that there was someone within the crowd that was hit by his words and was greatly annoyed by it. Before Long Tianlan and Long Tianhei could warn Long Tianhong, the latter was on his head, some instantly falling on the ground, leaving a small dragon-shaped crater on the ground.

Long Tianhong, with a huge bump on his head, flew up instantly in anger: "Who the hell hit me?!" He was still cursing around and abruptly stopped talking, almost biting off his tongue when he saw his enraged expression, as his face was almost black from anger.

"M-Milord?!"

Shen Jueyang said, "Stop talking unless you want your tongue to be pulled out!" fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

"Yes, sir!"

Long Tianhong was frightened enough to keep trembling under the cold gaze of his master. Only when Shen Jueyang walked away was the red dragon hatchling able to breathe properly. He turned to look at his brothers and asked,

"Did I say anything wrong?"

Long Tianlan and Long Tianhei were actually surprised by his majesty’s reaction. At least they didn’t expect him to react that strongly after hearing Long Tianhong’s joke. Taiyang, who was watching the whole thing, finally laughed out loud, seeing the stupid faces of these dragon kings. They truly didn’t realize a thing about the situation.

Taiyang said, "Haha~ you got hit because what you said is the truth. Look carefully. Does the current Moon Goddess look the same as the Moon Empress that you remember? No, right. She is completely different. Even though Xue’er is the reincarnation of the Moon Empress, they are completely different people. In the first place, Xue’er is not in love with his majesty. Instead, this time it was his majesty who fell first."

"Moreover, Xue’er is a full-fledged member of the Royal Lei Clan and a direct descendant because her father is one of the heirs of that clan. This means... the Royal Lei Clan will not easily give away the daughter of their lineage to any man. His majesty not only needed to defeat the princes of the Moon Palace but also those in the Royal Lei Clan. The fact that Xue’er isn’t in love weighed on his mind more."

"You just have to stab where it hurts~. It is only right that you got hit. Hahaha~ that was entertaining to watch," said Taiyang.
