Ning Wan, facing Kleysa's curiosity, clearly hesitated but eventually shared her story.
After the dissipation of spiritual energy in ancient times, most of the dragon race left Earth. Ning Wan was left behind in the Dragon Palace deep in the East Sea. With the loss of spiritual energy, the palace collapsed into ruins. To preserve her energy, Ning Wan had to hibernate.
After thousands of years and a few hundred years following the resurgence of spiritual energy, Ning Wan awoke. When she tried to leave the ruins to explore the outside world, she encountered a group of powerful humans hunting a Jiao dragon. The Jiao dragon, about to be killed, sought Ning Wan's help and promised to transform into a weapon for her. Ning Wan agreed and, after a fierce battle, managed to escape with the Jiao dragon, who then transformed into a Fangtian Huaji named Lingjiao.
She learned that her attackers were from the Lin family of the First Human Base. After rescuing the Jiao dragon, Ning Wan was saved by a fishing couple but later lost them to a sea beast. She then began a life of wandering until she met Chu Tian and his group.
As for Dragon Princess and Ning Wan, it was a matter of dragon lineage. The dragons, as per legend, were intelligent beasts capable of transforming into human form.
Kleysa asked if Ning Wan was a descendant of Ao Guang, to which Ning Wan confirmed. When asked about her name, Ning Wan explained that her grandfather often called her "Wanwan" as she was the size of a bowl when born.
Kleysa suggested changing her name back to Ao Ning, emphasizing the importance of ancestral surnames in Chinese culture.
Changing the subject, Chu Tian asked why Kleysa chose to become a cyborg. She revealed that she was born with a genetic disorder and was transformed into a cyborg by her father to save her life.
Curiously, Chu Tian asked if cyborgs could have relationships and children, which led to him being knocked out by an angry kick from Kleysa.
When he woke up, Chu Tian found himself on the floor with Aya watching TV and eating, Ning Wan eating a large roasted lamb leg, and the Thunder Pattern Snow Fox munching on a lamb rib.
Ning Wan, despite her young appearance, was actually an ancient dragon and showed little interest in modern technology like TV shows.
Chu Tian realized he had been unconscious for five hours, a testament to Kleysa's S-level strength.
Kleysa later returned in casual home attire, freshly showered, and teased Chu Tian about his earlier comment.
As they continued eating, Chu Tian suggested learning Elvish from Aya and lightly joked with Kleysa about her being upset, to which she sharply retorted.
