"I will stop when your people have some kind of civic sense and humility. If not I could always infuse such morals with my fists of love. I have been told that my fists can always spread happiness and joy to the world." John said and this time with a huge smile.
"Everybody step back." Jiang Nan shouted hearing the words of John. She knew if she didn't want any more injuries to the people around, she needed the people to calm down. This person was too powerful.
All hesitated for a moment before finally stepping back. Only the old man was still stuck at his place not able to move. The others went to take the martial artist who fell from high up and was groaning in pain to the medic facility. Though he wasn't injured and didn't break any bones, there would be pain for sure.
"Can we talk now? Why are you here with my sister and who are you?" Jiang Nan asked.
"My name is John Jameson and I am here to resolve the differences between Ta Lo and Ying Li. She had been banished just because she fell in love with an outside person. And that is an injustice. So I am here to remedy that. I want everything to be back to where it was before and let her new family be accepted in Ta Lo."
"You think I will believe you? You kidnapped my sister and her whole family and expect me to just accept her back? I admit I have a soft spot for her but the rules were set long ago." Jiang Nan said.
"Do they look like they are here out of coercion? They came here because I invited them. I don't really care about your Ta Lo and your small dimension. I admit the monsters behind the mountain are terrifying but that is it. I can kill them with the back of my hand. I am just here to see a happy reunion. If you don't believe me, you can go and talk to her in private. See if what I said was true or false." John said. Jian Nan was surprised that this person even knew of the monsters behind, but she thought that it must be Ying Li who had said about the monsters.
Jiang Nan then looked at the Ying Li and her family to see if there was any form of forced coercion or signs of kidnap but she found out that the family of 5 looked happy and would be safe to say that they were a little excited. Even though the episode started with brutality this didn't take away the fact that Ying Li was just happy to be back home.
Jiang Nan hesitated a bit before inviting them in for a normal conversation and on the assurance that the Master Guang Bo wouldn't speak ill. John let him go and just walked into Jiang Nan's home.
She finally couldn't hold it and hugged Ying Li. Her duties stopped her once, but she wanted to make it up to her in any way possible. Since it was the two women talking, John went out to look around. The gossip and the talks of two sisters would just bore him and he was sure they wouldn't like him being near.
The people around were curious about these new visitors who caused such a commotion but fearful too as they had seen what had happened to Master Guang Bo, so they just stared at John from afar.
John didn't mind being a zoo animal as long as the people don't cause trouble for him. As he started walking, he finally reached the bank of the lake. John could see the other side of the lake was a mountain.
And the mountain had a small platform above which there was a circular door. The door looked red in colour like the weapons of the people here, signifying that the door too was made of dragon scales.
"Phoenix, can you sense what is on the other side of the door?" John asked.
"No...All I can feel is void. That is Oblivion's department. Not mine." Phoenix came out and sat at the shoulder of John looking at the distant door. As they were discussing what could be on the other side of the door, there was a sudden movement on the water surface.
There were lots of bubbles coming out of the water and huge waves being created. John who looked at the door was surprised a bit but then he remembered what was laying dormant on the small lake.
The dragon.
And as expected a huge Chinese Dragon came out of the water making a splash all around. John finally got to see the dragon with his own eyes. A long dragon with white scales with hint of red scales all around. The dragon didn't look old as John could sense his life force.
The dragon after coming out looked at John. The sudden emergence of the dragons created a huge commotion in the village as all came out to see the Protector who had been on the lake and never showed its face to the people.

"What the hell!! Why did the dragon suddenly come out of the water."
"Yeah!! It never comes out. Is it because of the new visitors? Did he anger the Protector? I think its because of that. Master Guang Bo was badly beaten up. He deserves an ass whooping from the The Protector.''
.....
Such discussions were in hushed tones among the people but nobody dared to go near the dragon. Meanwhile John was just amazed by the first sight of the water dragon. He had never seen a dragon before, only read in books and legends.At least not a dragon in flesh. A skeleton he had seen.
No words can define its majesty in reality!!
The dragon after coming out looked at John and slowly lowered its head to be on the same level as him. The mouth of the dragon finally neared John and blew air from its nose at him. John felt like Kratos here when Kratos met the World Serpent for the first time.
Only difference was Kratos was a little scared as his son was with him and here John was sure that the dragon just wanted to say 'hi' to him.
John lifted his hand and touched the nose of the dragon. All the people around who saw this scene were dumbfounded. They thought that the new visitor would just die after the emergence of their Protector, but it looked like he was here just to be petted by the man.
They were ashamed. Ashamed that their Protector, who had never shown its face, came out for an outside visitor. Seeing all the commotion, Jiang Nan and others too came out to see what was going on and they were surprised to see such scenes on the lake.
"Here is a little gift to you." John said as he gave some of the life force to the dragon as a gift of meeting. The dragon almost moaned in pleasure by receiving such a precious gift. The dragon was an intelligent species. It came out because it felt a being had entered their dimension who had almost unlimited life force. And any being such as the dragon would always be tempted to come out.
The dragon lowered its head after digesting all the life force it had just received at John. He made a sound from its mouth.
"Uh you want me to ride you?" John said as he could understand what the dragon wanted to convey to him.
The dragon nodded its head. John's eyes shone when the dragon nodded its head. He immediately levitated over the head of the dragon and sat on its neck. And then the dragon flew off. John had never sat on a majestic creature before and this was the first time.
"I gotta say there is a different level of feeling when you get to ride a majestic creature. I need to get myself a dragon." John thought.
The dragons had become almost all extinct and there was only one place where he could get one. Well not one but many, and John was sure that the fight was approaching soon. All kinds of thoughts were in his head as the dragon roamed the skies while John enjoyed the wind on his face. John felt like a child and even shouted a few times to show how happy he was.
It had been a long time since John felt so happy. The last time it was when he had children of his own. And after almost 10 minutes of roaming around it came down. Jiang Nan and others were waiting for him.
Even Master Guang Bo was there on the side with his head down. As the dragon lowered its head for John to jump down, all the people bent their knees.
Not for John, but for the Protector. John got down from the neck and looked at the people who showed their respect to the dragon. The dragon nodded its head a bit before going back to the lake. The dragon in essence didn't care for the people living here. It was here to protect the door, not the people and at times supply some of its scales so that they could fight in future if anything went wrong.
The people felt embarrassed when they saw the dragon. It didn't seem to care for them but still they gave their utmost respect to an outsider.
"Have you all resolved the problems between Ta Lo and the outside world?" John asked. He didn't care about what the people thought. He just wanted to know if Goku could be trained here. Jian Nan looked at Master Guang Bo for a second before saying.
"Yes. Ying Li and her family won't be stopped from entering Ta Lo. But only her family would be allowed in and not another person."
"Agreed. The Avengers will be happy to know that the negotiation went smoothly. The Avengers promise that in tough times we will lend a hand." John said.
