Zhulong greets the dawn as sunlight rises above the sea of clouds, while mountain light shines all the way to Fusang.
Yinglong had yet to find his moment, and could only look up and live in a few feet of muddy water.
When heaven and earth first came into being, Fuxi and Nuwa used their supreme divine power to resolve the conflict between the two dragons.
Nuwa merged her spirit with the heavens, while Fuxi’s blood nourished the earth.
Their spirit and blood became divine power, binding the two dragons to their duties;
they established the six paths of reincarnation for the realms of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, bringing order to the world.
Yinglong Jichen dwells in the thirty-sixth heaven, foremost among the celestial realm.
His daughter gave birth to a son named Yanchen, heir to Fuxi’s blood.
Zhulong Jiuyin lies hidden in the depths of the Nine Netherworlds, lord of Houtu.
His son had a daughter named Su San, inheriting Nuwa’s spirit.
Su San accidentally fell into reincarnation while carrying a dragon scale, disappearing from the realms of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.
After keeping vigil for ten million years, he saw an infant girl descend into the mortal world, bathed in spiritual light.
He thought he could renew the unfinished bond between them.
But because of him, she suffered the torment of reincarnation once more.
He said, “Even if I have to sever my tail, I will protect her at all costs!”
She said, “I cannot accept Heaven’s favor. From this day on, we are strangers!”
A match made in heaven, or fate playing a cruel trick?
