Chapter 18 Are You a Dragon King?

Zhang Chi Hang flipped his hand, turning the kalasa upside down. That lump of black aura fell onto the ground and slowly rotated, gradually turning into a human, one that had two horns on his head and was extremely handsome. I might not know other demons, but this one was pretty familiar, because his species always shew up on TV.

“Are you a Dragon King?” I said “a” not “the” Dragon King since there were so many of them on TV, even in a well. I had no idea where he came from, so I could only call it that.

The black guy looked at me and smiled shyly, as if he didn’t know he had done anything wrong.

“You little worm,” Zhang Chi Hang carried a willow branch in his left hand and a kalasa in his right, showing a solemn appearance. Only then did the black dragon see him and immediately get scared off his shits. He trembled like a sieve, kneeled on the ground, and kowtowed hard, “your Mighty, please forgive me for not knowing or dodging your presence!”

Was Zhang Chi Hang that scary? This Black Dragon was, after all, a person who had stirred up the wind and rain just a moment ago, but now it was as cowardly as that.

“Not dodging my presence? You really know how to avoid important matters. “Zhang Chi Hang let out a light snort, and shook his right hand gently. Then the black dragon, as if he was hit by a thunderbolt in the clear sky, immediately dropped onto the ground, as though his entire body had been pressed into a pancake by an extremely heavy, invisible object. “Let me ask, why did you harm people in the plane? Do you want to become a dish for some people on a table as soon as possible? ”

“Absolutely not!” The little dragon was suppressed to the point where he couldn’t breathe, but after hearing Zhang Chi Hang’s words, he was no longer afraid, and his tone became much calmer, “there must be a misunderstanding, your Mighty. Please allow me to explain.”

“Alright,” Zhang Chi Hang noticed the variation in his tone, then and frowned in thought. Somehow, that extremely heavy object seemed to have disappeared, and the black dragon’s body returned to normal from the pancake. He got up, panting and feeling relieved, but not daring to stand, so it kneeled on the ground and spoke, “your Mighty, as you know, after the Five Four Immortal Granting Ceremony, we dragon race could not cultivate any more, and our donations come intermittently. I can only live on the little bit of donation from mortals as their faith.”

“It’s the same for everyone. That’s the pattern of the great Tao, are you trying to go against it?” Zhang Chi Hang waved his hand.

“No, absolutely not!” Hearing Zhang Chi Hang’s tone altered, the black dragon immediately kowtowed, “bakc in the years, fortunately, Saint Zhou was merciful and made a rule that we must not hurt souls of humans, but can eat floating spirits or demons that have no host.”

“I’ve also heard of that. Since the human way is flourishing, Saint Zhou did it to comply with the will of heaven and leave you a way out.” Zhang Chi Hang nodded his head, “thanks to it, the number of demons that are wreaking havoc has dwindled for recent years, which is why the human way are flourishing.”

“Yes,” the black dragon hurriedly continued after seeing Zhang Chi Hang nodding his head, “since the human way has flourished, I also act in accordance with the heaven’s will. Today when I was making rains, I suddenly saw a plane flying into the clouds. As your Mighty also know, the sacred art I apply in raincloud will inevitably affect the normal operation of planes. In order to ensure everyone’s safety, I was going to cast a spell to remove the plane from the cloud, but then I found demon souls in the plane, so I planned to snatch the souls and eat them later. I made thunders only because I was worried that the soul would escape the plane. However, I was caught by your Mighty before I snatch those demon souls out.”

“Nonsense!” Zhang Chi Hang ignored everyone else as he spouted out the word, “the plane are filled with human, so it must be rich of Yang Qi. Ordinary demons would not even dare to ride on it. Beside, with your cultivation, you are not able to subdue monsters that are not even afraid of thunders. How would you dare to snatch them?”

“I dare not to lie. Those demon souls aren’t strong, but they are indeed inside the plane. This is the trace of demon soul I pulled out in the last moment. Your Mighty has a good judgement. You will never take me wrong.” The black dragon flipped his hand and shew a trace of light. Zhang Chi Hang took a glance at it, then his expression became strange. Just as he was about to say something to us, he glanced at the black dragon, and said, “even so, your conduct made hundreds of men unsettled, so I must punish you. You must chop bamboo on my mountain without mistake.”

“You’re Mighty, I am wrongly accused —”

“That’s all~” Zhang Chi Hang spoke again in a light voice. After that, the black dragon flew to the small mountain in the humidifier bonsai on the desk.

Only then did Zhang Quan notice the bonsai. After some consideration, he slapped his thigh and cupped his fists, “congratulations, brother Zhang! You have such an amazing skill. You imitate his Majesty turning Mountain Buzhou into a Fantian Seal. If I’m not wrong, the fake mountain in the bonsai is also turned from your Mountain Luojia with your mana. Just a moment ago, you were using Mountain Lojia’s imposing aura to flatten this small dragon, right? ”

“I have no choice.” Zhang Chi Hang nodded, “there are always someone who wants to develop there. Sooner or later they will discover my ashram, so I have to bring it with me. However, what you said was too much of an exaggeration. I don’t have his Majesty’s skills. Mountain Buzhou is a planet. It takes great divine ability to turn it into an object in the size of a palm. Beside, no matter where Mountain Lojia is, my ashram is in South China Sea. Whichever small country dares to say that the South Sea belongs to it, I will let it see the heaviness of Buddhist culture! ”

“Awesome!” I sighed in my heart, “he is a patriotic Bodhisattva.”

“Brother Zhang Quan, how do you think of what the Black Dragon just said?” Zhang Chi Hang looked at the wisp of soul floating in the air, appearing to be deep in thought.

“It seems to be the soul of a deer goblin?” Zhang Quan looked up into the sky and thought through everything, “but it’s different from the deer goblin I have seen in the past. This soul is tainted with human aura, so the demonic Qi of it is not so obvious. However, I can figure out how goblins would generate human aura from nothing.”

Zhang Quan’s eyes lit up. He turned and asked Liu Shuai, “I remember that you told me that Zhou Yuan’s soul was forcefully peeled off his flesh body by someone else?”

Liu Shuai was thinking about something, but when he heard Zhang Quan’s question, he quickly replied, “it’s not actually by force. Zhou Yuan already had the thought of separating his soul from his body to improve his physical body, while the other party was taking advantage of his promise.”

As he spoke till here, Liu Shuai looked at Zhang Quan with a complicated gaze, “I remember that you had taught me in your dreams that although the Soul Falling Array is helpful, the Soul Falling Technique could hardly work if one did not want to give up. Although one’s body has indeed less entanglement and could display an extraordinary amount of power after the soul left it, it would be extremely weak as well. I am no sure what tricks Lan Ruo and her fellows have to use after that.”

“So you’re saying,” Zhang Chi Hang heard Liu Shuai’s words, “that there are a lot of people outside who want to break away from their soul to overcome the limits of their body?”

“Hahahaha, Brother Zhang really likes to joke around,” Zhang Quan laughed out loud, “one would definitely die when his soul leaves his body. Furthermore, the method Wei Yang used back then was extremely cruel. In today’s bright world, how could one acquire so many lives to exchange his soul? This kind of exchange also has a lot of restrictions. Who would be so foolish as to use this method?”

I thought about the conversation between Liu Shuai and Yan that night, and they were talking the same thing.

“What if he is possessed by a soul of a goblin with mana and uses a special method to realize the confluence of spirit and body?” Zhang Chi Hang smiled, and I suddenly realized that there was a hint of coyness in his smile.

Zhang Quan was stunned, so did Liu Shuai who took a moment to react, “so that’s how it is, so that’s how it is!”
