Saving the Pitiful, Beautiful, Strong Second Male Lead

Qingshuang accidentally entered the Spirit Realm and became a three-hundred-year-old young dragon. She fell into the Snake Abyss, a graveyard belonging to the Winged Serpent clan, where she met another dragon covered in wounds.

After accidentally touching the Stone of Karma, Qingshuang mysteriously learned the plot of a storybook. The wounded dragon before her was none other than Feiyun, the pitiful second male lead.

Feiyun was a descendant of the Yinglong dragons of the Immortal Realm. But after a twist of fate, he fell into the Spirit Realm as an egg and was incubated by the Winged Serpent clan, who mistook him for one of their own eggs. After hatching, he was rejected because his true form looked so different from the rest of the clan. His adoptive parents considered him a disgrace, and his clansmen treated him with coldness and disgust. His life was worlds apart from that of the Winged Serpent clan's young patriarch, the story's male lead.

Later, the Winged Serpents framed him, cut off his wings, crippled his sea of consciousness, and threw him into the Snake Abyss. He barely managed to escape, only to be taken in by the female lead and made her hired muscle. She refined pills with him, making him bleed, cutting off his flesh, and peeling off his scales. Only after he accidentally ate a Spirit-Nurturing Fruit intended for the female lead's pill refining, which healed his sea of consciousness, did he recover his memories. Just as he was about to leave her, the male lead captured him, broke his bones and ground them into medicine. Only his dragon soul escaped by sheer luck. At that point, he fell completely into darkness. His vengeful aura lingered, bringing calamity to the world. He destroyed the Heavenly Ladder single-handedly, cutting off the Spirit Realm's path to ascension and earning himself the title of its public enemy.

Qingshuang looked at the pitiful young dragon lying in a pool of blood, pale and fragile as a shattered doll, and smiled like a doting mother. “You’re still just a hatchling. How did you get so badly hurt? Don’t worry, I’ll protect you from now on. We dragons are so noble and majestic. How could we let outsiders bully us?”

And so, a three-hundred-year-old young dragon protected an eight-hundred-year-old adolescent dragon. She won back his severed wings, found the Spirit-Nurturing Fruit to heal his sea of consciousness, ventured into secret realms, searched for spirit medicines, and ascended to the Immortal Realm to find his family. But she never realized which one of them was really protecting the other!

Note: This is just an early announcement. I'll start updating once I've finished the outline. Sending love!
