The Mountain Lion Blood Essence sat quietly in Chen Fang's Inventory, and there was also the Mountain Lion Leader Blood Essence. So, he only had to go to the entrance of the Mountain Dragon's lair to find the herb that have absorbed the dragon's breath.
According to Blair Bronzebeard, the mountain dragon's lair was on the west, in the deepest part of Dragon Mountain Range.
Chen Fang turned around and rode on Whitey. He looked to the west and saw that there was a huge airship emitting black smoke under the big tree not far away. The airship had obviously suffered serious damage.
That should be Blair Bronzebeard's airship.
Chen Fang couldn't help being very grateful to the mountain dragon that likes to attack people.
He just wanted to say well done!
That mountain dragon was simply his lucky star!
It helped him get two hidden quests one after another. First with Lilian, the daughter of the city lord. Then there was the third prince of the Ironforge, Blair Bronzebeard. One more noble than the other.
At this moment, in order to thank that mountain dragon, he decided that he will kill it with its body intact when the time comes!
...
Chen Fang soon arrived in front of a huge cave by following Blair Bronzebeard's guidance. When he stopped there, he did not see any trace of the mountain dragon. He looked around for a while and finally found the Dragon Breath Grass.
The Dragon Breath Grass was a plant with a dark red color.

Quality: Grade 5
Description: A herb that has absorbed the dragon's breath for a very long time and contains a trace of dragon qi. It exudes a hint of dragon aura. Consuming it can permanently increase HP by 1%. (Up to three times per person)
...
All of a sudden, Chen Fang's face changed slightly.
Dragon Breath Grass was actually a grade 5 herb that increased HP by percentage!
It should be noted that this was just a grass that contain a trace of dragon breath, what if it genuinely contains the full dragon's breath?
"Divine Herbalism!"
Chen Fang began to harvest the herbs impatiently.
What a pity that there were not many Dragon Breath Grass here, there were merely 5 patches. He gathered all of them immediately.
[Ding! Successfully gathered the grade 5 herb, Dragon Breath Grass. Divine Herbalism proficiency +5!]

...
Another additional 5% HP!
Give it a like!
He's going to take the Blood Bull Mage1 path!
Roar!
At the same time as when Chen Fang was pondering on his future path, a deafeningly loud dragon roar could be heard. The dragon's might swept over him.
Not too long after that, a huge shadow that seem to be able to cover the whole sky appeared. After a while, Chen Fang could finally see the appearance of the huge shadow clearly.
Unsurprisingly, that was the figure of the mountain dragon.
The mountain dragon was at least around 20m, with earthy-yellow skin and a rock-like body. The dragon's head was terrifying and hideous. Two huge dragon wings and four powerful limbs with sharp claws flashed with cold light. The tail was long and winding, and the end of the tail had barbs.
Wind swept across the instant the dragon fluttered its wings.
"This mountain dragon is so huge, no wonder Blair Bronzebeard's airship was damaged to that extent …." Chen Fang sighed emotionally, his expression solemn.
Analyze!

Chen Fang's gaze became more cautious and his expression turned grave.
He withdrew the Holy Light Unicorn into the pet's storage.
"Boom!"
The Mountain Dragon's huge body fell heavily and landed in front of Chen Fang, causing the dust and gravel to scatter everywhere.
