"Now, now?" Li Yin's breathing became inexplicably rapid. Although his whole body was soaked in cold water, he felt an inexplicable heat deep inside his body.
"What else?" Du Feiya smiled slightly. She lowered her face and moved closer to Li Yin, their faces almost touching each other. A drop of water slid from the corner of her mouth and shattered on the tip of Li Yin's nose. A little mist flowed over the corner of Li Yin's mouth, and he couldn't help licking his lips.
"Okay, okay..."
So, after a while, the sound of the two people laughing and playing could be heard again on the lake.
"It's so itchy—" Li Yin suddenly screamed, "Don't touch me there."
"You are such a weirdo." Du Feiya's clear face showed an incredible expression, "How can you be ticklish when learning to swim?"
"Besides, your body is too sensitive!"
After saying that, she didn't say anything else. She held Li Yin's chin with one hand and lifted his head out of the water.
"Okay, stay in this position now," she ordered. "This way you won't choke on the water. Next, move your limbs in the water according to the method I taught you just now."
But Li Yin obviously did not follow her "teaching method". Du Feiya felt his soft jaw constantly shrinking back, and his limbs twitching violently like a duck suddenly falling into the water. In just a moment, his chin was out of her control, and then "gulp", his whole head sank into the water. The "hahaha", "hahaha" laughter that was originally rippling on the water surface also stopped abruptly.
With a "splash", the water surface broke open, and it was Li Yin's hand that reached up hysterically.
Du Feiya smiled playfully, swung her body like a swimming fish, circled behind him, dived into the water, and picked him up.
Li Yin coughed more than ten times, spraying out a string of water. Du Feiya stuck behind him, looking at his miserable appearance, and laughed so hard that her body shook.
After he calmed down a little, she gently swayed and walked around to his front again.
The brief disappearance of buoyancy made Li Yin panic. When he saw Du Feiya reappear in front of him, he immediately stretched out his hands and grabbed her tightly as if she were a life-saving straw, as if he was afraid that if he was a little slower, he would fall back into the airtight abyss of water.
Du Feiya took advantage of the situation and pulled him along, making his body close to hers. Then she raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a sly smile, and whispered earnestly into his ear: "Hold on tight..."
These words seemed to trigger Li Yin's inner fear of falling into the water again, and he indeed moved his body closer.
The curve of Du Feiya's mouth became clearer and clearer.
"How about," she said gently and considerately, "we can do it step by step, not all at once - you don't need to move your upper body yet, just practice the leg movements."
“Okay… okay…” Li Yin took a breath and said with lingering fear.
After calming down a little, he began to practice leg movements under the guidance of Du Feiya.
"Open your legs, stretch them out, push your legs hard, then squeeze your legs inwards, hold the water, and close your legs. Very good..."
Du Feiya gave instructions step by step, with an uncontrollable smile on her face.
Although it was said "don't move the upper body first", when Li Yin used his lower body to hit the water hard, how could his upper body not move?
Feeling Li Yin's head and chest rubbing against her body, his smooth forehead moving closer to her lips, and his delicate neck skin rubbing against her collarbone and shoulders from time to time, the smile on Du Feiya's lips became brighter and brighter.
However... the force of this impact is obviously not enough.
After careful observation, she indeed found some clues.
"Don't stick your feet out of the water. The purpose of your leg movements is to hit the water to generate propulsion. If all the power of your feet hits the air, how can you move forward?"
The impact became more intense, and she raised her chin, stretching her neck in comfort.
What a good and attentive student.
………………
On the shore, the sapphire dragon Saga, awakened by the constant splashing of water and the laughter and screams of men and women, slowly opened her eyes. She blinked her sleepy eyes a few times, stretched her wings, and stood up shakily.
A noise in the distance attracted its attention.
It turned its head towards the sound and blinked its sleepy eyes. Its huge blue pupils looked curiously towards the distant place where the water was splashing.
"What are you two doing?" it murmured, its tone unclear and still mixed with a bit of sleepiness.
"Playing in the water?" After being stunned for a while, it suddenly reacted, tilted its head, and its two blue eyes opened wide and rolled around a few times.
"It looks like a lot of fun," it said to itself, with a strong sense of excitement in its tone, "In that case, I will come and play with you guys."
After saying that, it moved its four legs, spread its wings, and ran towards the center of the lake with a rumbling sound.
Li Yin and Du Feiya were floating in the water, earnestly teaching swimming, when suddenly, they heard a loud bang in the distance, as if a landslide had occurred on the dome, crashing into the water. They turned their heads and saw a huge splash of water rising from the water in the distance, like a tsunami.
"What, what's going on?" Li Yin asked doubtfully. He looked at Du Feiya, who gave him the same doubtful and slightly frightened look.
Before the heart that had just been raised could fall, the two felt a huge shock coming from underwater, as if some huge monster was approaching rapidly.
Then - before they could react, a huge impact force suddenly came straight up from under the water. The two of them soared into the sky with screams, rising straight into the air, and the dark dome on the top of the rock was infinitely magnified in their terrified eyes.
In great fear, the two could not help but hug each other tightly. At this moment, although they were rushing towards the sky, they felt as if they were on a carriage rushing towards hell at high speed.
And beneath their tightly entangled limbs, there was a huge column of water that stretched from the sky to the earth.
Below the water column, the Sapphire Dragon Saga revealed its huge head.
It had just snorted, and its big blue eyes looked left and right, its bright eyes filled with confusion and hesitation.
"Hey, human bugs, elf bugs, where are you humans?"
After saying that, it suddenly jumped into the lake just after waking up. Stimulated by the cold water, it couldn't help but raise its neck and sneeze again.
"Ah-"
Then, the rising momentum just subsided, and Li Yin and Du Feiya, who were falling back, soared into the sky again amid another round of screams...
------
After a long time, the man, the spirit, and the dragon who had been having fun in the water returned to the shore - of course, the fun here mainly refers to the local owner, the great dragon lord Shaka.
After making some minor corrections on the shore, the giant dragon Saga could not wait to call out to its loyal human servant, Rein, to play a game of chess on the giant chessboard nearby.
Fortunately, Li Yin had not forgotten his previous plan. He hurriedly told Shaka about his plan to upgrade the astral construct chef team.
Shajia scratched her head and said, "How about... we play two games of chess first before discussing this matter?"
"Let's finish today's work today," Li Yin said earnestly, "After we finish this matter, Master Shaga can play chess without any worries. You don't have to think about upgrading your constructs while playing chess."
Shaka tilted her head, thinking about something. She felt that what Li Yin said made sense, but on the other hand, the fire of her passion for chess was burning in her heart, making her restless and even more anxious.
Seeing this, Li Yin hurriedly added, "Think about it, if you are playing chess while thinking about the construct, it is very likely that you will be distracted and miss the chance to make a great move that you should have made with your level. This is such a painful and regrettable thing, but there is nothing you can do about it."
After saying this, he made a heartbroken expression, as if he had foreseen the irreversible scene.
He couldn't let this dragon just flap its wings and go play chess. With its obsession with chess, there would be no "play two games first". As long as it stood beside the chessboard, there would be nothing "to say". This chess madman would keep playing, and playing, until he was exhausted, tired and sleepy, and then turn around and go back to his own palace to sleep.
"In that case, let's do it." Shaka hesitated for a moment, and seeing Li Yin's regretful look, as if she also saw herself losing a good opportunity, so she made up her mind.
Li Yin clapped his hands, and dozens of stellar constructs walked over in unison.
"You've been learning how to make constructs for so long," Du Feiya asked curiously as Li Yin and Sha Jia were researching and modifying the astral constructs, "but you can't even add a dishwashing function to them?"
Du Feiya's questioning made Li Yin feel a little embarrassed, just like those students who recited magic spells all day long when they were studying at the magic academy, but stood up when the teacher checked them, and could not even recite the first paragraph of the spell completely.
"It's different," he explained wretchedly.
"If I were to make a separate construct just for washing dishes, I could certainly do that."
"Or, if I add a dishwashing function to my own construct, that's fine too."
"However, the logical instructions of these constructs of Master Shada are far more complex than my constructs."
When Shaka heard this, her huge dragon head couldn't help but raise up, and the corners of her mouth slightly curled up, revealing the white gaps between her teeth.
"…If we want to add new functions on this basis, we must accept the guidance of Master Shaga. Otherwise, it is very likely that a small change will affect the entire body and destroy the original functions of the machine."
Du Feiya suddenly understood and nodded.
At the same time, Shaka nodded happily.
"Not bad, not bad, human bug. You have some self-awareness and have not tampered with Master Shaga's masterpiece."
After that, the man and the dragon started to transform the constructs. As Du Feiya guessed, the washing function itself was not complicated. All Li Yin needed was Shaka's guidance and care to avoid mistakes. Therefore, it didn't take long for them to complete the transformation of the first construct. After verifying that everything was working properly, they followed the same method and successively upgraded the seven barbecue master constructs and the fishing master construct to "dishwashing masters". Then, just as Li Yin clapped his hands and summoned the ninth construct, Shaka became a little impatient.
"The rest are just repetitive tasks," it said. "There is no need to waste the precious time of the great dragon. Just leave it to you, the little human insect, to complete it on your own later."
Chapter 202: Rebuilding the Dragon's Rights
"For you," its two watery, blue eyes blinked, and it did not forget to make promises to Li Yin, "this is also a valuable practice opportunity that can further improve your proficiency in psychic powers."
Although Li Yin was already familiar with its "sanctimonious" behavior, he had to admit that he could complete the rest by himself, so he didn't say much.
He clapped his hands, dismissed the construct he had just summoned, turned his head and looked in the direction of the giant chess formation in the distance.
Just when he thought that the next job was to play chess with the dragon, he saw Shaka's sapphire eyes blinked again and looked in a certain direction to the side.
Li Yin followed its gaze and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
It turned out that what it was staring at was the "original work" of Li Yin standing motionless on the lakeshore, which integrated all his astral construct technologies, like a small-sized "Shaka" astral construct dragon.
"You even put a saddle on it?" The dragon turned around, the muscles around his eye sockets twitching, and asked in a muffled voice with a very unfriendly look on his face.
The dragon's milky white body did have a lot of milky white bumps, which were the shape of the saddle that Li Yin had made with star matter for the convenience of riding. When Li Yin was making it, he also put a lot of effort into it, striving to improve the stability and controllability to the best.
Now it seems... Looking at the "little dragon statue" with its mouth slightly open and fully equipped with saddles, Li Yin does feel that something seems to be wrong...
"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding..." He apologized hastily, then lowered his head deeply and said no more words, for fear of further provoking the anger of the giant dragon with righteousness above his head.
"Hmph," the dragon snorted unhappily.
Then, it raised its claws and grasped them at the motionless astral dragon in the distance. A layer of silver-white light appeared on the milky white body of the astral dragon. Not long after, the light faded, and there were no more incompatible protrusions and decorations on the dragon's milky white body. The scales and armor were complete, and it turned into an image of a completely free and natural dragon without any worries or constraints.
After doing this, Shaka rested her chin on her claws, stared at the construct, and pondered for a while.
"You said you made it based on the heroic image of this dragon?" It complained unhappily, "But this is far from the heroic spirit and majestic appearance of this dragon."
"Yes, yes." Li Yin agreed repeatedly, "I am blind and my skills are poor. This crude construct cannot reflect even one ten-thousandth of your elegance."
"This person is completely different from you and has no right to represent you," Li Yin suddenly had an idea and took advantage of the situation to get out of the situation, "so please don't get angry about this anymore."
However, the dragon Shaka ignored his comfort. It just lowered its head and pondered to itself:
"That won't do..."
After saying that, it raised its head and aimed at the astral construct standing still in the distance. A silver light suddenly flashed in its azure eyes. Then, the astral construct dragon waved its four legs, opened and closed its mouth, and ran towards them with a puff.
Li Yin was slightly surprised, but soon he regained his composure.
The giant dragon Saga directly controlled the astral construct without his permission, which was indeed inconsistent with his understanding of the astral construct's power. But considering the huge psychic power gap between the two sides, this phenomenon was not so difficult to understand.
Soon, Rein's astral construct, the little dragon, ran in front of them. It stood in front of Shaka, with its head held high and its mouth slightly open. Its two milky white eyes met Shaka's azure eyes. Shaka's towering figure formed a sharp contrast with its ordinary figure. The two dragons stood together, and the scene... was like an old dragon father and his silly son...
Li Yin suppressed his smile and kept his expression calm, not letting this sudden thought make the corners of his mouth twitch.
Shaka lowered her head and examined the astral construct dragon at close range for a while, then raised a claw again.
A silver light suddenly appeared on the tip of its claws. As the claws moved in the air, the silver light formed fleeting lines in the dark air, as if outlining something.
As these silver lights flashed, on the other side, various parts of the astral dragon's body underwent some changes, some obvious and some subtle.
First, the bulge on the upper part of the right forefoot suddenly became a little flatter. After noticing this change, Li Yin had to admit that there was indeed a problem with his previous shaping. He made the dragon's muscles bulge a little too much, making it look a little stiff and unnatural.
Then there is the crown of thorns on the top of the head. Some of the thorns have been shaved off, some have been ground down, and others have been thickened...
The chest muscles obviously have more lines - although Li Yin made a calm comparison, silently thinking that his original design was more realistic this time...
In short, after a long period of time, after careful carving by the giant dragon Shaka, an astral construct dragon appeared in front of them with a brand new look.
Looking at this lively and living astral construct dragon, Li Yin had to admit that Saga was indeed a master of psychic power and an expert in astral constructs. Judging from its appearance alone, this astral construct dragon was much more refined than the original one, and the details were countless times richer.
If the brand new astral construct dragon in front of him could be compared to an exquisite mural, then his original crude work was like a stick drawing casually posted at the door of a tavern - the kind whose ink had been soaked by alcohol and scattered.
Especially since there is a living dragon next to it as a reference - under Shaka's careful craftsmanship, this construct dragon made of astral matter looks exactly like the real living dragon next to it, as if they were carved from the same mold.
It was for this reason that when Li Yin looked at the two dragons, one big and one small, staring at each other, he felt more and more like an old father and his "silly son" - only this time, the "silly son" was not "stupid". Not only was he not stupid, he also looked very energetic!
However, Shaka, who strives for perfection, seems not satisfied with the remarkable results. He raised his paw, supported his chin, and examined it intently for a moment, then added a few minor changes intermittently to make it even better.
Now, it finally seemed to be completely satisfied. It raised its paws, nodded to itself, then turned to Li Yin and said:
"That's more like it. Look at what you made before..."
"Yes, yes," Li Yin nodded repeatedly, not sparing his praise, "Master Shada's work is ingenious and ingenious!"
Shaka turned around and stretched out her claws again at the "little dragon" in front of her.
Li Yin looked at it with a puzzled expression, wondering what shortcomings it had discovered. After all, in his opinion, the stellar construct in front of him was impeccable in appearance alone.
But then a silver light flashed between Shaka's claws, and a bright silver ray hit the chest of the astral construct. Then, the entire astral construct rapidly shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, it shrank from a size slightly larger than a cow or a horse to a few dozen centimeters in length, looking like a small doll.
This is not the end. After the "little dragon" stopped shrinking, Saga paused, and then the outstretched claw clenched again. Then a faint blue flash covered the little dragon's body. When the faint blue light faded, Li Yin was surprised to find that the scene in front of him did not change much - there was still a layer of faint blue covering the little dragon's body, crystal clear and shining.
No... not just one layer. The entire body of the little dragon, from the inside to the outside, changed from translucent milky white to the same dark blue color as the body of the sapphire dragon Saga - it actually used magic to transform the milky white astral constructs that made up the little dragon's body into a material that looked exactly like blue crystal. Maybe - that was the blue crystal. Looking at the little astral construct dragon that had almost completely turned into a "miniature version" of Saga, Li Yin thought with amazement.
"What else?" Du Feiya smiled slightly. She lowered her face and moved closer to Li Yin, their faces almost touching each other. A drop of water slid from the corner of her mouth and shattered on the tip of Li Yin's nose. A little mist flowed over the corner of Li Yin's mouth, and he couldn't help licking his lips.
"Okay, okay..."
So, after a while, the sound of the two people laughing and playing could be heard again on the lake.
"It's so itchy—" Li Yin suddenly screamed, "Don't touch me there."
"You are such a weirdo." Du Feiya's clear face showed an incredible expression, "How can you be ticklish when learning to swim?"
"Besides, your body is too sensitive!"
After saying that, she didn't say anything else. She held Li Yin's chin with one hand and lifted his head out of the water.
"Okay, stay in this position now," she ordered. "This way you won't choke on the water. Next, move your limbs in the water according to the method I taught you just now."
But Li Yin obviously did not follow her "teaching method". Du Feiya felt his soft jaw constantly shrinking back, and his limbs twitching violently like a duck suddenly falling into the water. In just a moment, his chin was out of her control, and then "gulp", his whole head sank into the water. The "hahaha", "hahaha" laughter that was originally rippling on the water surface also stopped abruptly.
With a "splash", the water surface broke open, and it was Li Yin's hand that reached up hysterically.
Du Feiya smiled playfully, swung her body like a swimming fish, circled behind him, dived into the water, and picked him up.
Li Yin coughed more than ten times, spraying out a string of water. Du Feiya stuck behind him, looking at his miserable appearance, and laughed so hard that her body shook.
After he calmed down a little, she gently swayed and walked around to his front again.
The brief disappearance of buoyancy made Li Yin panic. When he saw Du Feiya reappear in front of him, he immediately stretched out his hands and grabbed her tightly as if she were a life-saving straw, as if he was afraid that if he was a little slower, he would fall back into the airtight abyss of water.
Du Feiya took advantage of the situation and pulled him along, making his body close to hers. Then she raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a sly smile, and whispered earnestly into his ear: "Hold on tight..."
These words seemed to trigger Li Yin's inner fear of falling into the water again, and he indeed moved his body closer.
The curve of Du Feiya's mouth became clearer and clearer.
"How about," she said gently and considerately, "we can do it step by step, not all at once - you don't need to move your upper body yet, just practice the leg movements."
“Okay… okay…” Li Yin took a breath and said with lingering fear.
After calming down a little, he began to practice leg movements under the guidance of Du Feiya.
"Open your legs, stretch them out, push your legs hard, then squeeze your legs inwards, hold the water, and close your legs. Very good..."
Du Feiya gave instructions step by step, with an uncontrollable smile on her face.
Although it was said "don't move the upper body first", when Li Yin used his lower body to hit the water hard, how could his upper body not move?
Feeling Li Yin's head and chest rubbing against her body, his smooth forehead moving closer to her lips, and his delicate neck skin rubbing against her collarbone and shoulders from time to time, the smile on Du Feiya's lips became brighter and brighter.
However... the force of this impact is obviously not enough.
After careful observation, she indeed found some clues.
"Don't stick your feet out of the water. The purpose of your leg movements is to hit the water to generate propulsion. If all the power of your feet hits the air, how can you move forward?"
The impact became more intense, and she raised her chin, stretching her neck in comfort.
What a good and attentive student.

As these silver lights flashed, on the other side, various parts of the astral dragon's body underwent some changes, some obvious and some subtle.
First, the bulge on the upper part of the right forefoot suddenly became a little flatter. After noticing this change, Li Yin had to admit that there was indeed a problem with his previous shaping. He made the dragon's muscles bulge a little too much, making it look a little stiff and unnatural.
Then there is the crown of thorns on the top of the head. Some of the thorns have been shaved off, some have been ground down, and others have been thickened...
The chest muscles obviously have more lines - although Li Yin made a calm comparison, silently thinking that his original design was more realistic this time...
In short, after a long period of time, after careful carving by the giant dragon Shaka, an astral construct dragon appeared in front of them with a brand new look.
Looking at this lively and living astral construct dragon, Li Yin had to admit that Saga was indeed a master of psychic power and an expert in astral constructs. Judging from its appearance alone, this astral construct dragon was much more refined than the original one, and the details were countless times richer.
If the brand new astral construct dragon in front of him could be compared to an exquisite mural, then his original crude work was like a stick drawing casually posted at the door of a tavern - the kind whose ink had been soaked by alcohol and scattered.
Especially since there is a living dragon next to it as a reference - under Shaka's careful craftsmanship, this construct dragon made of astral matter looks exactly like the real living dragon next to it, as if they were carved from the same mold.
It was for this reason that when Li Yin looked at the two dragons, one big and one small, staring at each other, he felt more and more like an old father and his "silly son" - only this time, the "silly son" was not "stupid". Not only was he not stupid, he also looked very energetic!
However, Shaka, who strives for perfection, seems not satisfied with the remarkable results. He raised his paw, supported his chin, and examined it intently for a moment, then added a few minor changes intermittently to make it even better.
Now, it finally seemed to be completely satisfied. It raised its paws, nodded to itself, then turned to Li Yin and said:
"That's more like it. Look at what you made before..."
"Yes, yes," Li Yin nodded repeatedly, not sparing his praise, "Master Shada's work is ingenious and ingenious!"
Shaka turned around and stretched out her claws again at the "little dragon" in front of her.
Li Yin looked at it with a puzzled expression, wondering what shortcomings it had discovered. After all, in his opinion, the stellar construct in front of him was impeccable in appearance alone.
But then a silver light flashed between Shaka's claws, and a bright silver ray hit the chest of the astral construct. Then, the entire astral construct rapidly shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, it shrank from a size slightly larger than a cow or a horse to a few dozen centimeters in length, looking like a small doll.
This is not the end. After the "little dragon" stopped shrinking, Saga paused, and then the outstretched claw clenched again. Then a faint blue flash covered the little dragon's body. When the faint blue light faded, Li Yin was surprised to find that the scene in front of him did not change much - there was still a layer of faint blue covering the little dragon's body, crystal clear and shining.
No... not just one layer. The entire body of the little dragon, from the inside to the outside, changed from translucent milky white to the same dark blue color as the body of the sapphire dragon Saga - it actually used magic to transform the milky white astral constructs that made up the little dragon's body into a material that looked exactly like blue crystal. Maybe - that was the blue crystal. Looking at the little astral construct dragon that had almost completely turned into a "miniature version" of Saga, Li Yin thought with amazement.
