章節 38: Chapter 38
Everyone is dumbfounded when they hear the submission of the scary dragon to the little girl. Some felt relief while some is in despair.
But Di Xueyan felt that something is really wrong. Who would believe that she is this dragon's mistress?
She eyed the dragon suspiciously, but the proud dragon just a while ago is now very submissive that she can't see it's expression.
" What are you doing? I am the one who have your aura! I am the one who unleash you! But you are just bowing to someone who doesn't even contribute a thing! How dare you!", the emperor is already raging that he already forgets his 'zhen' mode and just casually said 'I'.
" So what? ", the dragon looks at him boredly. Hating this damned clown who is so adamant to be killed.
" Wrong, I'm the one who unleashed him because I was the one who broke the sword", Di Xueyan decided to join their bickerings, intending to enrage the emperor more and let him commit suicide himself.
Only Di Xueyan thinks that this is only childish bickerings, because almost everyone behind them are cowering due to the strong air that they are unconsciously emitting.
" Mistress, master has been waiting for you for thousands of years", the ancient black dragon turns his attention back to Di Xueyan while wiping his non-existent tears, ignoring the emperor who is about to collapse in anger.
Di Xueyan is just looking at him emotionlessly.
" Why do you look so fake?", she bluntly said with a poker face.
The dragon stops wiping his face, thinking of something that will make him more convincing.
" Mistress, master ditched me here to join you in the afterlife. You are all selfish people! You all let me live in a dark cell while you are all reincarnated! You could've let me die and reincarnate with you!", he whine wholeheartedly with a heartbreaking tone.
Di Xueyan can't help but to have her heart soften at his statement, but that doesn't mean that she is convinced.
She has been reading chinese reincarnation and transmigration cultivation novels too much that she is very familiar with the cliché reincarnation thingy but that doesn't mean that she believes that it will happen to her. Though she will surely love the entertainment and excitement it will bring.
" The Heaven is watching. I promise that what I said is true. Mistress please help me find master! He was very devastated when you died! He killed himself because he can't live without you!", the dragon lowered his body in the ground more while pleading.
The emperor is more enrage and attacked the dragon but a mere glance from the dragon immobilized him.
" You seem to forget that you have my aura", the dragon coldly stated, the sudden change of emotion is so scary, making the emperor shiver in fear.
" Mistress, I can't kill him because he is protected with a spell of his ancestor against me, but I can immobilized him for you to defeat him, but please help me find my master", the cold look of the dragon immediately melted as he respectfully spoke to Di Xueyan.
" No need, I can manage", the dragon really took her as a fool. Who would believe with his 'master tales'? And why would she take a useless deal?
She really knows that something is wrong with this dragon.
She used Ancient Frozen Time Art to freeze the emperor after she asked the dragon to let go of him and deactivated the barrier behind her.
" Linkai, general Bai, please express your grievances in the most cruel and vicious manner", she said softly as if she is just pacifying a little child who's been crying over a stolen candy.
" Deal with this afterwards", she ordered her trusted aids and fifty realm cultivators, and is about to walk out, ignoring the nonsense of the ancient black dragon behind her.
Everyone executed her orders, specially Jin Linkai and general Bai, who are crying while torturing the emperor without delay.
The dragon inwardly panics as he looks at her retreating back.
Everyone is confused as to how she can just walk away from a strong treasure.
" Just let me talk to you in private and I can explain to you satisfactorily", the dragon calmly stated, but the heart breaking emotions in his eyes are enough to gather sympathy from the people around him. They can't believe that the imposing dragon has positive emotions too.
Now, the Sangre Pavilion is very curious about their president's identity, it should be very noble as how the dragon explained it right?
Di Xueyan looks at the ridiculous faces of her subordinates, lamenting the fact that they are very easy to be scammed.
Without a word, she turns and face the imposing dragon. He is lightly shaking, which can't be seen even if you observe him seriously, as you will only think that it is your mere imagination. But as Di Xueyan already found it out a while ago, she can't help but to smirk at the pitiful looking dragon in front of her.
" Please, let us help each other find my master and your lover", he tried to plead again while looking at her with puppy eyes. But, he is inwardly gritting his teeth as he can't believe that there comes a day that he has to act like a dog in this damned lifetime of his.
He saw her smile softly, looking convinced. He smirked in his head, inwardly laughing at how easy to deceive humans are.
" Come, tell me eveything", Di Xueyan amiably and softly said, with a light sadness in her eyes as if she is really mourning the lost of her lover.
The dragon saw it and is even more excited. Di Xueyan strides towards him and hold him, before they vanished into thin air.
They arrived at a very serene yet huge garden. The surroundings is full of greens and fresh flowers with different colors, making even the most troubled hearts calm down. In their left side is a small waterfalls, dashing gracefully at the small blue lagoon below. The water is crystal clear, while it glistens under the glare of the sun whenever the foilage from the above trees are swayed by the winds. Greenish leaves are falling from the trees and gracefully scattering in the grounds whenever a gust of wind blows, creating a little leaves shower that The sounds of the running waters and the harmonious melodies of the little birds is so relaxing and calming, but it does not even affect the scheming pair of human and dragon below them.
The ancient black dragon is very smug to the fact that he is able to convince the little human being in front of him, so he made his story more believable.
" Mistress, at last - -"
" Shut your trap. I don't want to hear your nonsense. Let's get to the benefits now", she made a stop gesture while rolling her eyes, knowing she has enough.
The ancient black dragon's mind turned blank.
'huh?'
" I already know that there is no such thing as your master and I's reincarnation bullshit, you are just too weak right now to even make a move, thus you can't defeat even my fifty realm cultivators combined, what more me?", she rolled her eyes again, irritated at how idiotic she seems to be in the ancient black dragon's eyes.
The ancient black dragon can't believe that he was busted. Wasn't little girls like that kind of stories very much?
He and his master has been scheming against people ever since they were weaklings until they topple and reached the top of the world.
Even if he thinks like that, he is still just a simple minded beast as his master did all the scheming, what can he do against the complex minds of humans?
" You really think you are very convincing just now? You would have never thought that I am a doctor right? Your internal injuries is so severe that only a pure blood whatever can make you conscious for a while but after that, you'll be as good as vegetable again. So, you don't want to waste your remaining energy fighting because it will only shorten your time more", Di Xueyan smirks as she analyze the ancient black dragon's situation.
Long Jian can't help but to break into cold sweats even though he doesn't have a sweat gland in his dragon form. How would he know that she is too smart for her own good?
" You got me there, little human", he said helplessly, but when he said that she is familiar, he really meant it, but so what?
" I am not a magnanimous person so, I am not someone who helps anyone for free. So if you have nothing to say anymore, you can go now", she pretends to walk out again.
" Wait, I have a golden dragon essence here, it can save anyone's life even if they are just a breath away with just a drop. This vial has 3 drops ", Long Jian understands his precarious situation, so he hastily gives one of his treasure, of course, as someone who lives for thousands of years, this kind of treasure is maybe very rare, but for him, it is not even important.
" Up until now, you're still trying to cone me? Do you think I will be moved with this lousy thing? What if I tell you that I have a lot of this? You are still not taking your life seriously? ", Di Xueyan puts her left hand on her hips while raising her chin with a proud mocking smirk, making the ancient black dragon to frown, lamenting in the inside how smart the girl is.
Of course, she doesn't have this kind of treasure, she have pills, yes, but her godly pills were now gone, so technically, her heart skips a beat when she saw it. But how can she be so gullible when she has been reading novels where the female protagonists are so shameless?
Long Jian is depressed. Seems like he really need to sacrifice half of his treasures to save his ass. He might be a fool for entrusting to a mere girl his precious life, but he doesn't now why, aside from the familiarity, he felt strangely secured with the girl and his guts told him that she can be trusted.
" Fine, you win. But promise me that you will help me find my master", he said helplessly while opening one of his wing, he shakes it off and a little mountain of different colored, but mostly gold, treasures and artifacts piled up in front of her.
She doesn't even bother to hide the greediness that sparkles in her eyes as she stares at the treasures while almost drooling. Long Jian rolled his eyes while staring at the adorable greedy girl in front of him.
" Sure, let me help you find your master. And since, I am a magnanimous person, I will also do my best to help you heal your injuries", she is even unaware that she really is very shameless at that moment. She is too blinded with the treasure that she forgot for a moment how heavy the responsibility that she is about to shoulder.
" You are sure?", Long Jian's eyes flickered with hope, as he is currently hopeless with his situation right now.
Di Xueyan seems to get back to her senses when she heard the question, she suddenly realized that if the damned dragon's master is someone with lots of enemies, she might be doomed. But so what? She can just look for him silently. As if she is stupid enough to let anyone see Long Jian.
" Yes, I'm serious. It's settled then", she said while turning her back.
" Won't you get your treasure? Or I will keep it for you?" Long Jian asked with a frown, confused as to how she can act greedy for a moment and indifferent at the next.
Di Xueyan slant her head a little, showcasing her winning smirk.
" This is my little realm, why would I need to hide my treasures anywhere if I can just leave it here?", the light mocking in her voice made the poor black dragon's mind went blank.
" You - - you! You have the guts to tell me that I can leave when in fact I am in your little realm!? ", Long Jian shouted indignantly. He can't believe that he was scammed from the very beginning.
All he can hear is a light genuine laughter of the little girl before she vanished, leaving him shaking his head, amused of being outsmarted but strangely he is not even irritated.
