Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress

```

???

Am I going to die?

Little chubby Wilson, the big fat young dragon, was startled by the words of the young dragon, fearing that Herman had underestimated the power of the Sword Qi Scroll and had critically wounded the Black Dragon Youngling. However, when they saw that the Black Dragon Youngling didn't crash heavily to the ground but merely lightly landed...

They quickly realized that Herman hadn't beaten the Black Dragon Youngling to the brink of death. If the Black Dragon Youngling was truly dying, its fall wouldn't have been so light and floaty.

And... when the Black Dragon Youngling roared, it was full of breath. A young dragon close to death couldn't possibly roar so strongly.

That cunning and sneaky Black Dragon Youngling was pretending to be weak again, hoping to lure Herman close and then seize an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

Such a damn good actor.

It's just that the act was too fake.

Suspended in the air, the Bronze Young Dragon Herman skeptically looked at the Black Dragon Youngling rolling around on the ground. The Sword Qi Scroll... ah, no, correct that... the Sword Intent Scroll was indeed more powerful than she had imagined.

The Black Dragon Youngling couldn't even resist before it was struck by the Sword Intent Scroll and lost the ability to fly. It's just that... why didn't the Sword Intent Scroll, which cost five hundred Gold Coins, knock a single Dragon Scale loose from the Black Dragon Youngling's body?

All she heard was the Black Dragon Youngling's painfully howling.

No Dragon Scales were knocked loose, but the Black Dragon Youngling was screaming so painfully, what exactly was wrong?

Was there a problem with the Sword Intent Scroll she bought?

Or was there a problem with the Black Dragon Youngling?

Herman was in a dilemma.

No, she had to confirm it.

Herman descended from the sky and landed not far from the Black Dragon Youngling. She was on guard, aware that Ursula's encounter as the green-haired dragon girl couldn't happen to her.

"Stop howling, Black Dragon Youngling. Get up. My Sword Intent Scroll didn't even knock off a single scale from your body, don't you think your performance just now was very fake?"

Lying on the ground, writhing in 'pain', the young dragon saw a flicker of panic in its amethyst vertical pupils upon hearing Herman's words. It's been found out.

Was it really acting too fake?

Not even a single Dragon Scale was knocked loose, who could she blame for that?

She had been practicing boxing inside Evil Dragon Sword Domain's Sword Intent Milky Way where not even a single Dragon Scale had been knocked loose. Surely, she wasn't expected to randomly pluck off a few of her own Dragon Scales, right?

Even a slight bite on the tongue was painful; how much more would it hurt to remove her own Dragon Scales?

No, she couldn't get up.

Once she stood up, everything would be lost, and the value-for-money Source Power items in the Evil Dragon store would be suspected of having quality issues.

The Source Power items made by Evil Dragon were definitely of high quality. If other young dragons had faced that level of a Sword Intent Scroll, they definitely would have been injured.

She wasn't injured because she had been practicing in Evil Dragon's Sword Domain recently.

Everything in that domain - plants, trees, rivers, crops, puppies, animals - were all transformed from Sword Intent; even the moon in the sky was transformed from Sword Intent. She was just used to it.

How could she explain it in a way that could convince the Bronze Young Dragon that the Sword Intent Scroll she'd bought was actually terrifying?

Wait!

This was a Sword Intent Scroll, not a Sword Qi Scroll!

Sword Intent Scrolls affected the spirit, the Divine Soul.

How should the spirit being injured be portrayed?

The young dragon thought of Evil Dragon Lance.

Evil Dragon Lance always looked weak after battles; spiritual injuries must be like how the Evil Dragon appeared to be, right?

Firstly... the eyes must lack shine.

Secondly... the speech must be breathless, giving the impression that one could expire at any moment...

And then... even if one could stand up, they must sway as if they could fall over at any moment...

Recalling Evil Dragon's weakened state, the young dragon began to act again, struggling to rise...

Dragging herself across the ground with her Dragon Claws, as soon as she managed to lift part of her dragon body a little, her Dragon Arm suddenly 'hurt', and she fell to the ground. The second time... using all her strength and even leaning her Dragon Claw onto a nearby tree for support, she barely managed to rise and change her position to sit crouching on the ground, panting heavily.

After a moment of heavy panting, the young dragon then looked up at the Bronze Young Dragon standing not far opposite her. Mockery flashed in her vertical pupils; having never used a look of contempt on others before, she wasn't sure if her expression was right, but it would have to do...

"Fake? You say that I... cough... cough, cough..." The young dragon's face suddenly showed an expression of pain, and then it raised its Dragon Claw and hammered its own head fiercely a few times. After a while, the look of pain on its face lessened, and then she continued to speak to the Bronze Young Dragon: "The scroll you used... it's not a Sword Qi Scroll, it's Sword Intent... Sword Intent Scroll..

Do you... do you understand the difference between a Sword Intent Scroll and... and a Sword Qi Scroll? Sword Qi Scrolls wound the body. Sword Intent Scrolls... harm... harm the spirit... the Divine Soul....

I have no external injuries because the Sword Intent Scroll you used hurt my Dragon Soul and spirit. I... I... just give me a moment..."

The young dragon took out a bottle of Magic Potion from a Lucky Coin, removed the stopper, and downed the potion in one gulp.

Entering the body, the Magic Potion caused a faint golden glow to appear on the dragon's body.

She couldn't continue acting; it was better to pretend to drink a potion that could heal the Divine Soul and end this state. She had no real acting skills; if she acted too long, she would definitely reveal flaws.

It would suffice if the Bronze Young Dragon understood the power of the Sword Intent Scroll and didn't naively think that Sword Intent Scrolls harmed the body.

Even though Evil Dragon indeed could make scrolls that injured both the body and the Divine Soul...
