Chapter 1710: Duping the holy dragon soul

After Ye Zichen broke the city signboard, the Gu Family experts could no longer restrain their fury.

Gu Luolin was so shocked, she clutched her hands to her little mouth. In all her years of life, she’d never even considered the possibility that someone might break their signboard.

However, her shocked gaze also carried a hint of excitement….

“Badass!” Gu Luolin clenched her little fists, and she couldn’t help but mutter to herself.

The servants at her side immediately glanced at her. “Young Miss, what did you say just now?”

“I didn’t say anything!” Gu Luolin gleefully batted her little eyes, but in truth, it wasn’t just the attendants. Many of the nearby experts had heard her exclamation.

However, all of them took it as a hallucination. After all, Gu Luolin was from the Gu Family’s main line of succession.

Their sign had been destroyed. How could she possibly say something like that?

“Really badass! I always wanted to do that, but I never dared. Now, my nephew’s gone and done it in my place! He sure is my nephew!” As she stared at the broken sign, Gu Luolin inwardly nodded to herself.

Meanwhile, above the gates.

The holy dragon had been within the sign, but now that it was broken, its home had been broken too. Naturally, it appeared within Ye Zichen’s line of sight.

When it felt that draconic aura draw near, the holy dragon wailed and attempted to retreat, but Gu Xuande had placed it within the confines of the sign and restricted it. Thinking about it now, Gu Xuande must have chosen to put it there to scare Ye Zichen. Placing it within the city sign was also a display of the Gu Family’s dominance.

Using a holy dragon to guard the gate was domineering indeed. freewebn ovel.c om

But Gu Xuande could never have guessed Ye Zichen would have this up his sleeves. By setting something like this up, he’d essentially lifted a boulder only to drop it on his own feet.

“You still want to run? Things have already progressed this far. Where can you run now?”

The sign had broken, and the spiritual pressure that earlier had made each step arduous had disappeared.

In a few steps, Ye Zichen reached the holy dragon’s soul. He stretched out his hand to touch its spiritual form. fre(e)webnovel

The dragon soul curled up in terror, but it dared not resist, allowing Ye Zichen to touch it. From time to time, it whimpered.

“What are you doing? Following me is sure to give you a far better future than guarding some sign.” When he sensed the dragon’s utter terror, he retracted his hand. “I trust you still have a trace of consciousness, or you wouldn’t have been so terrified and frantic after sensing my draconic projection’s aura. Follow me! Fuse with the grey dragon behind me. You like elemental essences, so I’ll keep you well supplied from now on. How about it?”

Surprisingly, Ye Zichen didn’t try to seize the dragon by force. Instead, he started talking things over with it.

As they discussed terms, Ye Zichen deliberately withdrew his draconic power. This was to make things easier on the dragon soul.

“You’re from the primordial era, a remnant of a holy dragon’s soul, right? It must have been the demons and Outsider Gods who did this to you. I stand opposed to them both, and in the future, I’ll undoubtedly go to war against them. If you come with me, I can get revenge for you. How does that sound?”

“What future is there in watching a gate? The head of the Gu Family might be a half-step transcendent, but at the same time, he’s still just halfway there. I’m this era’s Master of the Emperor Star, and in the future, I’ll be able to transcend. I won’t just be a half-step transcendent…. I’ll be the real deal. Following a true transcendent has far better prospects than following a half-step transcendent, don’t you think?

The holy dragon soul clearly still held onto a trace of awareness. Ye Zichen dared say that with certainty.

Otherwise, when the grey dragon projection appeared, it wouldn’t have reacted with certainty. It should have just kept roaring at him blindly.

In that case, it ought to be able to understand Ye Zichen’s words. However, it still offered him no response.

Perhaps what he’d said so far wasn’t to its taste?

Maybe he had to try thinking of this from another angle?

After a bit of silent contemplation, Ye Zichen glanced at the grey dragon projection behind him.

Although he’d withdrawn its aura, its gaze still left the remnant soul too terrified to cause trouble.

The remnant soul was afraid of the grey dragon projection.

Might he possibly….

“How about this? If you follow me, I’ll take you to see the old Dragon God.”

“Roar——!”

The curled up holy dragon suddenly let out a draconic cry. It wasn’t like its earlier roars, as it had none of its prior viciousness. On the contrary, the dragon sounded a little excited. When he heard this, Ye Zichen felt a surge of delight. It seemed this holy dragon had once fought alongside the Dragon God, and what little awareness it had left still remembered him. That was why Ye Zichen’s grey dragon projection, which he’d learned after the Dragon God personally taught him the dragons’ secret manual, filled the holy dragon with such terror. It was also why, hearing the Dragon God’s name now, the remnant soul felt so excited.

“Brother, this projection is from the dragons’ secret manual. You can tell, right?”

The holy dragon’s soul gave a humanlike nod. Seeing this, Ye Zichen inwardly rejoiced. “Then you ought to know that the secret manual is with the Dragon God. That I can condense this projection is naturally because I’ve met him. I won’t talk in circles with you: the Dragon God taught me to manifest this projection personally. You could even call me the old Dragon God’s disciple!”

“Roar——!”

The remnant soul roared. This was the language of dragons, and Ye Zichen freely admitted that he…

Didn’t understand it.

But he could be certain that the holy dragon soul didn’t have anything against him anymore. He’d already showed off his relationship with the Dragon God, and he was even his disciple. This holy dragon was the Dragon God’s subordinate, so it was sure to obey him.

“You keep roaring, but I’m afraid I don’t understand. Although the Dragon God took me as his disciple, at the time, he spoke to me in human language. Human language, you know? That’s the language I’m speaking now. I don’t speak dragon, but I can assure you that if you follow me, I’ll be certain to bring you to see the Dragon God. Furthermore, I’m on great terms with the dragons! The dragon princess’ original form is a golden dragon and she…. She’s my wife! My wife! You ought to understand what that means, right?”

“Roar——!”

What was it trying to say?

Ye Zichen couldn’t help but complain to himself. Communicating with the holy dragon was exhausting, given that it couldn’t talk. However, on the surface, he made sure his expression stayed friendly.

In that case, there was no need to chat. He’d just pull it directly to his side!

“See? I’m friendly with the dragons. The dragon princess is my wife, and the Dragon God is my master. What are you waiting for? Join me! Don’t just guard this gate. Dragons ought to have their dignity. Leave watching gates up to the dogs.”

“Achoo!” Countless miles away, Little White rubbed his nose. “Someone must be thinking about me!”

“How about it? Wanna follow me?” After extending this invitation, Ye Zichen said no more. He just stared intently at the dragon soul. He was the incarnation of a trickster, and he’d say whatever he needed to say.

The holy dragon paused for a while.

“Roar——!” It let out yet another sonorant roar. Then, it silently wormed its way into Ye Zichen’s sleeve.

Shortly after, the pale grey dragon projection behind Ye Zichen seemed to solidify, and its eyes flashed with newfound intelligence. It beat its wings and roared repeatedly.

“Heh…”

The addition of the holy dragon’s soul left Ye Zichen rather excited. “Brother, get some rest. I can’t maintain my holy dragon projection for long, but in a few days, I’ll take you to see the old Dragon God.”

“Roar——!”

Ye Zichen chuckled and put the holy dragon away.

Only then did he arch his brow and look at the shattered remnants of the sign. He cupped his fist, faced the sky, and laughed. “I’m afraid I carelessly became the first in history after all. Family Head Gu even offered me such a generous gift. I’m truly flattered!”
