<h4>Chapter 618 - Can I See Your Horns?</h4>
''Should I tell her the truth? But if they learn that I am not from the royal family… No, I should pretend to be a Dragon Emperor for my own safety…''
After pondering for a moment, Yuan has decided to act as though he was from the Royal Dragon Family, as he would be killed if he wasn''t.
"That''s right, I am indeed from the Royal Dragon Family," he said to Shen Shi in a calm voice.
Of course, Shen Shi wasn''tpletely convinced by his words, as there are several questionable points about his ims.
First, why has he kept his identity a secret until now? If he''d revealed his identity earlier, he wouldn''t have been treated so roughly.
Secondly, he didn''t have concrete proof that he was from a royal family, and they won''t be able to verify his identity until they bring him back to their family, where the tools to verify his identity is avable.
The Dragon Spatial Ring and the Golden Dragon Robe may convince a lot of people, but it won''t fool the real royal family.
"Can you prove it?" Shen Shi suddenly asked him, still with a smile on her face.
And she continued, "Don''t misunderstand my intentions, Senior Yuan, but I have never seen a Dragon Emperor before, and I want to know for sure so that you can receive my family''s full support."
"I don''t me you for being skeptical. Alright, I will prove it." Yuan said to her before closing his eyes.
After a moment of silence, he opened his eyes and activated Dragon Gaze, causing his eyes to glow golden and emit an intimidating aura.
"?!?!"
When Shen Shi experienced Yuan''s Dragon Gaze, her body trembled from excitement and fear at the same time even though her cultivation base was far higher than Yuan''s.
''It''s really the Dragon''s Gaze! And it''s so much more powerful than mine! He''s the real deal! A real Dragon Emperor!'' Shen Shi clenched her fists and jaws just to keep her emotions in control, but her heart was pounding with excitement.
After experiencing Yuan''s powerful Dragon''s Gaze, Shen Shi stood up before kneeling in front of him, "Please forgive this Junior for doubting the Senior''s identity. Our Shen Royal Family will do everything in our power to protect Senior even if it means war against the Fairy Paradise."

"War? Calm down. I do not wish for any wars because of me." Yuan quickly shook his head.
"Then if there''s anything this Junior can do to help you…"
Yuan nodded and said, "I''d like some information about this ce. You see, I identally got transported to this ce, so I am a little clueless at this moment."
"S-So that''s what happened…" Shen Shi mumbled in a low voice. This exined why he was a Dragon Emperor and they didn''t recognize him! To think that he''d been transported here by ident!
"Although such incidents are rare, it''s not unprecedented. Since you''re a Dragon Emperor, I assume that you came from the upper heavens?"
"S-Something like that." Yuan quickly nodded.
If she knew that he came from the Lower Heavens, that would instantly give away his identity.
"Anyway, allow me to tell you about our humble world, Senior."
"You can sit down." Yuan suddenly said to her, who was still kneeling on the floor.
"Thank you, Senior."
After clearing her throat, she began to speak, "We are currently inside the Fairy Paradise within the Fifth Heaven."
"Fifth Heaven?!" Yuan was shocked to learn this information.
To think he''d traveled four entire realms! Just what kind of secret is the Zither Goddess hiding? Why would her immortal caves do something like this?
"The Fairy Paradise is a unique ce in the Fifth Heaven that forbids men from entering thisnd regardless of their status. There are many sects and families within the Fairy Paradise, and this particr sect is called the Fleeting Fairy Sect."
"Looks like I have fallen into a troublesome ce…" Yuan sighed.
"Don''t worry, Senior Yuan. Our Royal Dragon Family will guarantee your safety. Although I said that there is no exception, I highly doubt the Fairy Empress is willing to go to war with the Royal Dragon Family over an ident like this. Furthermore, it was not as though you came to this ce with malicious intentions."
"Fairy Empress… Is she like the ruler of the Fairy Paradise?" Yuan asked.
"Yes, that''s right. She''s the number one expert in this world, hence why not many people dare to intrude on thisnd."
"You''ll most likely have to meet herter to deal with the situation."
"I look forward to it." Yuan said with a bittersweet smile.
After talking for some time, Yuan noticed that Shen Shi was actually a little bit fidgety for some reason, so he decided to ask her, "Are you okay?"
"Y-Yes!" Shen Shi responded in a nervous tone.
"If you have something to say, go ahead and say it." Yuan urged.
Shen Shi stared at him for a moment before nodding, "T-Then if you don''t mind… Senior Yuan, can I see your horns? I want to see what a Dragon Emperor''s horn looks like…"
"My… horns?" Yuan was left speechless by her innocent question that was sparked by her curiosity.
After all, a dragon''s horn is incredibly important to them.
"S-Sorry, but due to circumstances, I cannot show you my horns." Yuan politely declined.
"Is that so… It''s fine, Senior Yuan. You don''t need to apologize. It was rude of me to ask you in the first ce." Shen Shi said with a smile on her face, but the disappointment in her eyes wasn''t hidden well enough.
Although some dragons prefer having their horns out all the time like Shen Shi and her family, some dragons don''t want to show their horns for many different reasons.
''Now that I think about it, the dragons at the Ancient Dragon City didn''t show their horns. I wonder if there''s a specific reason…'' Yuan wondered to himself.
