Chapter 813 - 785: Resentful Dragon’s Death Force

In Sun Zhe’s complex gaze, Gu Yan mustered his strength and slowly opened his mouth wide, then Sun Zhe saw something wriggling and crawling out of Gu Yan’s throat.

When the thing crawled out of Gu Yan’s mouth and fell to the ground, Sun Zhe realized it was a small fire dragon.

The small fire dragon was about the size of a regular house cat, its skin was tenderly pink, so much so that you could see veins and tendons, without a single scale, resembling a newborn rat.

Sun Zhe asked, "Is this your child?"

Gu Yan’s massive body struggled, not knowing how much effort it took to adjust into a somewhat dignified posture lying in the pit.

"Its name is Gu Mo, my second child. My first child went out to play in early years and unfortunately met a tragic end."

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhe instinctively glanced at the Little Dragon Girl, transmitting a Divine Sense message: "Sister Long, did you eat the small fire lizard which was her child when you ventured into the Outer Wilderness years ago?"

"Tch, who knows?"

At this moment, a look of extreme hatred flashed in Gu Yan’s eyes, added, "My first child was also eaten by the Golden Roc."

Sun Zhe nodded, realizing he misunderstood the Little Dragon Girl, and said to Gu Yan, "Meeting and knowing each other is a kind of fate, I will help take care of Gu Mo."

"Thank you."

Gu Yan’s dragon scales gradually dimmed, gazing lovingly at the little fire dragon that looked like a sesame seed, said, "Gu Mo, Father wants you now to make a contract with this human and accompany him without fail, in the future... he will be your foster father."

Upon hearing, Sun Zhe’s gaze shook, about to stop, but Long Youyou left the Ring Space intending to decide for Sun Zhe, said to Gu Yan, "A contract can be made, but as you know, your race is known for its temper, so it has to be a master-servant contract."

She gazed at Gu Yan, speaking slowly, "Sun Zhe as master, your child as servant. How is that?"

Gu Yan was stunned upon seeing Long Youyou, laughed and said, "Ah, it’s the esteemed Princess. Hehehe... In the eyes of your race, I’m nothing but a lowly local creature, a winged lizard, how could I deserve to be called ’senior’ by Your Highness?"

Long Youyou replied with a blank expression, "That’s just some targeted rhetoric between two competing races; aren’t we seen as flying eels in your eyes?"

"In fact, my race never considers your race weak, even in some aspects stronger than us."

"If not for you using most of your essence blood and primordial qi to nurture your offspring, that Golden Roc couldn’t have done anything to you."

Gu Yan smiled, remained silent, secretly sighed that Long Youyou’s words indeed carried emotional value.

Long Youyou seriously stated, "Senior, you haven’t answered my question. Shall we conclude a master-servant contract?"

Upon hearing, Gu Yan glanced at Gu Mo, then Sun Zhe, hesitated for a moment and said, "A master-servant contract can be made. Human, I ask nothing else, just don’t harm my child in the future."

Sun Zhe nodded earnestly, "Rest assured, I will."

Then Long Youyou flew off to hold Gu Mo, saying to Gu Yan, "It’s not a loss either. He possesses a Pure Yang Holy Body rare through the ages, his bloodstream equals yours."

Time passed momentarily.

Long Youyou extracted a drop of blood from both Sun Zhe and Gu Mo, used a Secret Technique to assist Sun Zhe in making the contract.

Sun Zhe felt a sudden stabbing pain in his mind, and when the daze passed, found a Divine Sense imprint belonging to Gu Mo within his Sea of Consciousness.

Vaguely, he felt a strange sensation—if he destroyed Gu Mo’s Divine Sense imprint, he could instantaneously obliterate Gu Mo.

"This master-servant contract is really tyrannical and unreasonable. Thank you, Your Highness."

Filled with gratitude, Sun Zhe knew Long Youyou stepping forward to propose the master-servant contract was for his sake, so he transmitted his gratitude via Divine Sense.

...

Once Sun Zhe and Gu Mo’s master-servant contract was completed, Gu Yan’s life force was already very weak, the brilliant dragon scales on its body had all lost their luster, exuding substantial death energy.

It stared at Sun Zhe, briefly observing and said, "I sense a powerful fire energy within you, you seem fit to inherit my final power."

Sun Zhe asked, "What power?"

Gu Yan’s eyes revealed a hint of pride, slowly said, "This power is transformed from my flesh, essence blood, and grievance upon my death, strong enough to destroy all things, but can only be used three times."

Further added, "This power... is called ’Resentful Dragon’s Death Force’!"

Upon hearing this, even Long Youyou couldn’t help but show shock in her eyes.

Gu Yan said authoritatively, "I will perform a ritual, please Princess and Little Flood Dragon step back."

Upon hearing, Long Youyou wasted no time, held the softly cooing Gu Mo, then left with Little Dragon Girl, leaving Sun Zhe alone.

...

A moment later.

The mentor and the student came several thousand meters away.

Little Dragon Girl curiously asked, "Master, what is the ’Resentful Dragon’s Death Force’ the fire lizard mentioned?"

Long Youyou, her beautiful eyes slightly focused, gently said, "That is a very terrifying power, a power that can only be generated when local dragons die; I’ve only heard about it in early years, unaware of the specifics."

"Didn’t expect Gu Yan to pass this power to Sun Zhe, probably hoping Sun Zhe could use it to protect Gu Mo in the future."

Little Dragon Girl nodded, asked, "Earlier you mentioned local dragon race, what does that mean?"

Long Youyou replied, "The so-called local dragon race refers to dragons born on Earth. Local dragons existed sixty million years ago, like Gu Yan, evolved from dragons sixty million years ago."

Paused, added, "In the Kunlun Ancestral Land, they are called dinosaurs."

Little Dragon Girl asked, "Master, where do dragons like us originate?"

Long Youyou raised her eyes to the distant sky, "Our race arrived in this world just ten thousand years ago, sent by ancestors from our homeland to assist the Yellow Emperor in quelling chaos, stabilizing the worldly fortunes."

"As for where the homeland is, I do not know either. Perhaps it’s beyond the incomparably distant starry sky."

Little Dragon Girl also gazed into the distance, clenched her little pink fists, "If I get the chance, I definitely want to find out."

Long Youyou glanced at her, "Yueqing, once this matter is settled, would you like to return to the clan with me?"

"Going to the Outer Domain?"

Long Youyou said, "The Outer Domain you speak of is also known as Pangu Continent. There is where our race is rooted. And our dragon race, currently it’s just you and me, master and student."

Upon hearing, Little Dragon Girl remained silent for a moment, asked, "Does this mean, if I go with you, I must leave Xiao Zhezi?"

"Ah—!"

At that moment, a heart-wrenching scream from Sun Zhe suddenly echoed from the distant dense forest.

Little Dragon Girl instinctively panicked, about to run over to check, but was held back by Long Youyou.

"Master, let go, I want to see Xiao Zhezi!"

Long Youyou stated, "No need to worry, in order to withstand the Resentful Dragon’s Death Force as a human, one must endure unimaginable pain. However, Sun Zhe possesses an Undying Body, suitable to inherit this power."
