Yao Zhi was the only outsider in the Void Dragon Shoal.
She was a tea demon. Tea as in green tea.
She had nearly been driven away at first, but luckily she clung to the leg of the Dragon Clan's Third Prince, using the sweet-talking tricks she had been born knowing. For example:
"Ao Qi, Ginseng Sister is so good to you. She even used her own roots to make you soup."
The haughty dragon glanced at her. "Are you stupid? She's cursing me with her own body."
Yao Zhi pouted. "Oh, I see... I didn't know."
Or:
"Ao Qi, I heard you're going to marry the West Sea Princess. She's the most beautiful dragon in the world."
His glittering golden tail swayed lazily. "That was three hundred years ago. Just yesterday I told the Dragon Lord I wanted to marry you."
Yao Zhi: ?
How come I didn't know you wanted to marry me?
It took a very, very long time for Yao Zhi to learn the phrase "green tea bitch." She planted her hands on her hips, looking utterly smug.
Fine, I'm the real deal, a little green tea!
