Chapter 6 – Jiang Yan Must Be Harbouring Some Bad Intentions

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Charles carried the youth in his mouth as he flew back, but right when he was thinking about how he didn’t want to pass through the layers of fog, he suddenly smelled a flowery fragrance and violently sneezed.

  As soon as his mouth opened, the youth started falling straight down. The little milk dragon immediately dived and stretched out his claws to grab him again.

  However, dragon claws were sharp, and he had also caught him in a hurry. He didn’t know where he had poked the young man, but Charles saw him wake up with a cry of pain.

  Charles was startled and instantly loosen his claws.

  The youth dropped solidly onto the ground. Fortunately, they had been near the ground already and he didn’t fall from too great of a height, and although he suffered some injuries, it wasn’t to the point of losing any arms or legs.

  But this youth had never suffered any hardships growing up, and now he was facing some trouble. He sat up in confusion, only to see the blades of grass near him rustling and moving. Then a huge monster descended in front of him!

  The young man let out a cry. He had only been awake for a few seconds when he weakly collapsed onto the ground.

  Charles snorted and circled him a few times. When he confirmed that the youth had fainted again, he boldly picked the person up and carried him back with ease.

  If the poor young man were to wake up at this moment and discover that he was being carried in the mouth of a strange beast in midair, he’d definitely be scared to death.

  However, he was thoroughly unconscious this time, and even when Charles set him down in Taoerxian’s courtyard, he didn’t seem to have any intentions of waking up. Taoerxian was also sleeping sweetly inside his house, unaware of Charles’ arrival.

  The little fatty who knew how to eat well and sleep well really wasn’t very vigilant.

  It wasn’t until now, as Charles was thinking this, that he remembered his original goal of running away. He’d already sent this apology gift here, so he turned and left.

  Jiang Wuyi, who had been tailing him closely, chuckled. It seemed that the little dragon finally remembered his plan about escaping.

  But it was all in vain.

  The reason why Jiang Wuyi had let him run around all night was because he wanted to explore the depth of his character and figure out the little dragon cub’s background. Now that Charles had even exposed his dragon call, Jiang Wuyi didn’t bother playing hide-and-seek with him anymore. He raised his hand and Charles was stopped in midair.

  Charles was happily flying when he suddenly felt a severe pain shoot through his body. He let out a howl and squirmed in pain.

  When the pain doubled, he fell to the ground, losing control and smashing a few pits in the ground. He was in so much pain that he flailed about on the ground.

  These movements weren’t small, and the sound of the dragon’s crying was incredibly grating on the ears. Taoerxian woke up with a start and stumbled outside.

  Even the youth was woken up by the commotion. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the monster seemed to have been restrained by someone. He immediately crawled away, hugged a pillar, and hid behind there to watch. As he turned around, he suddenly brushed against something. He looked and saw that it was a little boy in pink, around seven or eight years old.

  When the pain finally eased a little, Charles couldn’t help but tremble all over, and he weakly changed back into his human form. Jiang Wuyi slowly walked over and reprimanded him as if nothing had happened.

  ”Didn’t I tell you to not run around all over the place?”

  His attitude wasn’t cold or indifferent, and his tone of voice wasn’t that different from usual, but to Charles’s ears, it was like listening to the incantation of the devil.

  He had only slightly feared Jiang Wuyi’s power before, but now he was really starting to feel scared. His already pale face lost all colour, and when the night breeze blew past him, he felt chilled to the bone.

  An unceasing sensation of pain radiated from his wrist, as if it were spreading from his veins to his heart. Charles looked timidly at Jiang Wuyi, only to discover that there was a light blue thread in his hand, and the other end of the thread was connected to his own wrist.

  He didn’t know when the light blue dragon totem had appeared on his wrist.

  The thread seemed to be formed by spiritual energy, and it emitted a faint glow. Charles then remembered that when Jiang Yan gave him some spiritual power earlier, he had held onto this spot, either accidentally or on purpose!

  It wasn’t until a while later that this bone-deep pain finally subsided, and the blue thread also disappeared.

  Charles dropped onto the ground, firmly holding his wrist. He was feeling both remorseful and frightened, and asked cautiously, “What was that…”

  He was probably weakened from the pain, and his voice was softer than usual. He sounded as if he were on the verge of crying, but he desperately blinked his eyes to prevent the tears from falling. Jiang Wuyi unhurriedly squatted down in front of him and stretched out a hand to grab his wrist. Charles abruptly avoided him out of fright and looked at him in alarm.

  Jiang Wuyi didn’t insist further, so he simply squatted there and stared directly at him, “It’s just a contract. From now on, I’m the master and you have to listen to me. If you want to escape, guess what will happen?”

  Charles couldn’t help trembling, and he gritted his teeth.

  Jiang Wuyi stood up slowly and said, “Your mind is too pure, so let me teach you a lesson. In the future, be more cautious towards other people and things, you mustn’t…”

  As he said this, he seemed to have remembered that Charles’s comprehensive abilities were too weak. He shook his head and said, “Don’t just trust others so easily.”

  This was the first time in his life that the little dragon cub had suffered such a huge shock, and his intestines were about to turn green from regret.

  Sure enough, his intuition wasn’t wrong. Jiang Yan’s a bad dragon!

  As for the youth who had been watching all the excitement from the sidelines, after seeing that the unfamiliar monster was defeated, he immediately felt a lot of respect in his heart. His eyes were shining as he looked at Jiang Wuyi, and he couldn’t resist mustering up the courage to walk towards him.

  ”Sorry to bother you… Dare I ask if this Celestial Master can send me back to the Huai Palace?”

  Jiang Wuyi suddenly remembered that there was still another living person here. He turned to look at this young man, and realized that he seemed quite familiar.

  Seeing him look over, the young man straightened his back and said in one breath, “I am Jing Yu, the crown prince and eldest son of Emperor Huai of Rui Country. I went on a trip to hunt demons, but I was plotted against by a group of evil-doers and fled here in a panic. If this Celestial Master can send me back, my father will be very grateful towards you. I would like to ask for this Celestial Master’s aid!”

  Jiang Wuyi’s gaze changed slightly, “Jing… King Huai’s eldest son?”

  Jing Yu thought he didn’t believe him, so he immediately wanted to take out the official token of the royal palace. After searching for a long time, he couldn’t find it, and he blushed, saying, “I’ve been in a difficult situation these past couple of days. There are a lot of monsters here, and in order to have a better chance at surviving, I threw away all of my magical tools. I suppose I also lost my token at that time… But I truly am the son of King Huai, that isn’t a lie!”

  Jing Yu’s words were sincere, but at the moment that he stated his name and title, the expression in the old locust tree and Taoerxian’s eyes also changed. They both looked at each other, but said nothing. Charles didn’t understand what was happening, and he secretly looked up, but didn’t dare speak.

  He was very scared of Jiang Yan now.

  But Charles didn’t think that Jiang Yan, this bad dragon, would be so kind as to really help send this lion, or whatever he was, back home. Yet unexpectedly, Jiang Wuyi smiled, looking like a completely different person, and agreed.

[T/n: The words for “eldest son/crown prince” and “lion” sound similar in Chinese. Charles misheard again.]

  ”Crown Prince is too polite. It is my fault that my pet my beast offended you today, so it is only proper that I help send you back.”

  …Pet beast?

  Charles glared at Jiang Wuyi, and reflexively wanted to refute his words, but Jiang Wuyi seemingly glanced unintentionally in his direction. Charles immediately wilted and shut his mouth, pretending to be like a rock.

  Jiang Wuyi continued, “It’s late now, so Crown Prince, you can take a rest here. When tomorrow comes and the fog clears up outside, we will leave.”

  Jing Yu breathed a sigh of relief and respectfully bowed to Jiang Wuyi, “Thank you, Celestial Master!”

  The little dragon cub looked at the ‘lion’ who was overwhelmed with gratitude towards Jiang Wuyi, and suddenly a kind of inexplicable sympathy for him, as if he had found another person with whom he could share his suffering.

  He was willing to guarantee that Jiang Yan must be harbouring some bad intentions!

  After sending Jing Yu and Charles back inside to rest, the old locust tree followed Jiang Wuyi back to the pavilion on the cliffside, and he finally couldn’t help questioning him.

  ”Daren is planning to go out?”

  In front of Jiang Wuyi was a blood-colored sword. The knife casted off a dark red glow, and was surrounded with a heavy air of death, as if it had just been washed in a sea of ​​blood. Its texture was peculiar, and it was difficult to discern the type of beast’s bone that was used to make it. The lines engraved on the hilt of the sword flashed with flecks of gold, and it looked both evil and gorgeous.

  The old locust tree lowered his head, as if he didn’t dare look at the sword any longer. It wasn’t until Jiang Wuyi waved his hand and put away the sword, that the old locust tree breathed a sigh of relief.

  Jiang Wuyi said, “It would be a pity to pass up such a good opportunity. I haven’t heard any news about that old thing for over a hundred years, and those good-for-nothings in the Divine Court don’t dare to disturb me either. I may as well go.”

  The old locust tree said, “Does Daren want me and Taoerxian to go with you?”

  ”No, you two need to stay behind. If the Divine Court pays us a visit, then we can still think of a justifiable excuse. I’ve lost 90% of my spiritual power, now is not the time to have a head-on confrontation yet.”

  A cruel light flashed in Jiang Wuyi’s eyes, “Wait for me to get back what is mine…”

  The old locust tree nodded in response, “Alright.”

  Seeing that Jiang Wuyi didn’t have anything else to say, he respectfully left. Jiang Wuyi leaned against the couch, looking at the blue thread tied around his index finger, and murmured softly to himself.

  ”He really came at the right time.”

_______________________________________________________________

  The next morning, Charles was woken up by Taoerxian.

  It was probably because the little milk dragon cried too miserably last night, but the grudge that Taoerxian bore against him had already vanished. In fact, he even felt that Charles was pitiful, angering Daren and getting punished like that.

  Charles was in a complicated mood. He couldn’t fall asleep last night, and it wasn’t until dawn that he finally managed to get some shuteye. but he was then woken up before even an hour had passed. He was just about to get angry when he saw that it was Taoerxian, and he slumped down and bowed his head in apology.

  ”Taoerxian, I was too drunk that day, I’m sorry.”

  Taoerxian waved his hand, “It’s fine, you’re leaving anyway, and I don’t blame you anymore.”

  Charles instantly brightened up, “I’m leaving?”

  Could it be that Jiang Yan finally agreed to let him go?

  Taoerxian seemed to guess what he was thinking of, and shook his head, “Daren is going out and wants to take you with him this time. Speaking of… I’ve been in the Divine Dragon Springs ever since I gained sentience, and I’ve never left before. You’re so lucky!”

  The little milk dragon wilted immediately. He definitely didn’t consider this to be good luck.

  Jing Yu was anxious to return home, and was already waiting in the courtyard at an early time. After all, he was at the heartbeat stage in cultivation, and after a night of rest, he looked much better than before.

  Jiang Wuyi had changed into a less conspicuous pale green robe. Though he still looked noble and intimidating, it gave him the air of an immortal being, similar to those cultivators in the human world.

  The three of them left the valley and headed towards the barrier. Charles didn’t know if it was just an illusion, but when they passed through the barrier, the corner of Jiang Wuyi’s lips seemed to have risen a little, before quickly disappearing.

  This smile inexplicably made Charles’s heart jump, and he couldn’t help but feel like there was something wrong with this situation. Charles’s attention was only diverted when he saw Jing Yu hop onto a silver sword and fly through the air..

  These past few days, Charles had read many books, and he knew that cultivators needed the help of outside forces in order to fly, and most used magical tools to do so. Then he also saw Jiang Wuyi take out a sword, and he looked over with an unclear expression.

  The sword was hidden in a jet-black sheath, but it gave Charles a bad feeling, like it was exuding rejection, but he was unable to explain why.

[T/n: In the raws, I honestly can’t tell if the author is saying that Charles is the one who feels like rejecting the sword, or the sword is the one that gives off a feeling of rejection.]

  Seeing Jiang Wuyi stepping onto the sword like Jing Yu, Charles was about to change back to his original form, but was pulled up by Jiang Wuyi.

  When Jiang Wuyi touched him, Charles recalled the pain from last night, and his little shoulders immediately trembled, Jiang Wuyi, however, held tightly onto his shoulder, and without a word, he urged the magic weapon to fly into the sky, following behind Jing Yu.

  With Jiang Wuyi there, naturally no monsters or beasts dared to come out and block the way as they flew.

  Jing Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and then cursed a little resentfully, “Sure enough, they’re a bunch of cowardly things that bully the weak and fear the strong!”

  Yesterday he had been chased so miserably by them, but today their journey went smoothly, which made Jing Yu both happy and indignant.

  The group arrived at the city gates of Lu City and landed on the ground.

  Flying in the air space above the city wasn’t allowed, and was an unwritten rule from ancient times that even the son of King Huai must respect. When the guards at the city gates saw Jing Yu, they immediately cried out in surprise.

  ”It’s the Crown Prince! The Crown Prince is back! Go and notify His Highness!”

  Although Lu City was located in a very remote area, it was the center of King Huai’s fiefdom, and the prince’s disappearance had caused a huge uproar in the city. King Huai was very angry and many people were sent to prison because of this. Now that the prince had returned unscathed, everyone was surprised and delighted, all hugging and gathering around him as they sent him back to the Huai Palace.

  They hadn’t gone far when the guards from the Huai Palace hurried forward to receive them, followed by a middle-aged man wearing a fish-scale patterned robe―

  It was King Huai.

  Jing Yu saw him and immediately walked forward.

  ”Father!”

  Seeing that Jing Yu was safe and sound, King Huai hated that he couldn’t just hold his precious son in his palm and keep him there. He looked at the wound on Jing Yu’s body with distress, “My son has suffered many hardships… Many hardships!”

  Charles felt that everything in front of him was very strange and novel, and he couldn’t take it in all at once. Hearing this, he immediately looked at the bloody wound on Jing Yu’s abdomen, and shrank back with a guilty conscience.

  Although Jing Yu did look quite roughed up before, there weren’t any major wounds on his body. The only wound that he had, seemed to…

  Have been made by Charles!
