Chapter 874 Guilty Conscience?



Chapter 874: Guilty Conscience?

In the Beast Valley.

It has been half a month since the Toad King was annihilated.

Today is the day where Yue Yang and the Reaper Mantis were preparing to leave the valley. In half a month, Yue Yang and the Reaper Mantis had ventured almost all over the terrain in the rear section of the Beast Valley, where they even visited the Double-Headed Black Dragon that guarded the Wisdom Fruit Tree to say hello.

Student Yue Yang didn’t really care much about things like the Wisdom Fruit.

In the Tong Tian Tower, many Wisdom Fruits mature every year. Even small areas produced them, let alone the larger forces such as the Golden Elves, the Eastern Demon Race, the Sea Race, the Demon Race and the Underworld Race. If Yue Yang offered to exchange by using Martial Spirit Pills, he wouldn’t need to say much, yet a hundred or more Wisdom Fruits would be collected by the respective Kings of each race. The Wisdom Fruit is only precious in the Beast Valley.

The Reaper Mantis, as a Holy Beast, had gone through the double restart phases of the Holy Fruit of Wisdom and the Glorious Light of the Gods. Her wisdom had already leapt infinitely close to that of a Divine Beast, but her strength was still far behind the required level. For the time being, she is considered extremely Holy but has not yet reached the level of a Quasi-Divine Beast. So, eating one or two Wisdom Fruits would prove to be of little use to the Reaper Mantis’s current level.

Therefore, Yue Yang didn’t even think of obtaining a Wisdom Fruit that was guarded by the Double-Headed Black Dragon at all.

Instead, he made a deal with the Double-Headed Black Dragon with a Martial Pill.

In exchange, he would obtain the entire row of teeth that the dragon had for a thousand years.

“I’ll admit that the dragon scales can be free, but even the dragon horns are free?” The Double-Headed Black Dragon was very depressed. It really wanted to swallow the kid in one bite, or burn him into ash with a breath of fire, but this idea was doomed to fail. As a guy who had guarded the Beast Valley for tens of thousands of years, his eyesight is very sharp and he could tell at a glance. Even if there was no Law of protection behind this kid, he was no weaker than himself. According to its potential and wisdom, the future of this kid was limitless. There might even be a day where the dragon would ask for favours from him! The Double-Headed Black Dragon bargained in the transaction, “Or I will give you another bottle of dragon blood. The dragon horns, dragon scales and dragon blood altogether would be used in exchange for ten of your Martial Spirit Pills. My dragon blood is very pure as I have the blood of ancient ancestry. My father is the Ancient Dragon!”

“You might as well rob someone!” Yue Yang resolutely opposed it.

“I’m good with eight, then,” The Double-Headed Black Dragon also knew that it was not so easy to win. This kid’s Martial Spirit Pills were of top-notch quality— if it missed the opportunity, the dragon was the one who would be at a loss.

“No,” Yue Yang didn’t bother to bargain and left directly.

“Don’t just leave, let’s talk this out,” The Double-Headed Black Dragon hurriedly stopped him, “Or I will use two bottles of dragon blood for your six Martial Spirit Pills. That with a pair of dragon horns and a hundred dragon scales.”

“With only that amount, you can only exchange it for one pill,” Yue Yang finally made a counter offer, but this kind of counter offer made the Double-Headed Black Dragon almost choke itself to death.

“Do you treat my blood as boiled water?” The Double-Headed Black Dragon was furious. After all, he was also of noble blood from the Ancient Dragon. If this rumour was spreaded out, it would make it a laughingstock.

“If you don’t change it, two bottles of dragon blood are nothing. If I had the time, I would just kill one by myself. By that time, it would be fine to own two large barrels, Yue Yang sneered.

“Don’t be like this…or, I can exchange two bottles of dragon blood for five pills, and I will exchange another Moon Gem for one more,” The Double-Headed Black Dragon decided to suffer a bit. Anyway, over the years, only this kid had the ability and the guts to make it suffer. For the sake of a new realm, even if it knew that this was a loss, it also recognized it. The Double-Headed Black Dragon also took out a treasure that it had been contemplating for a long time before finally deciding to do so, “Look at this Dragon Whistle. With it, you can maneuver ancient dragons and flying dragons below the Heaven Rank.”

“Trash,” Student Yue Yang was rather shocked, but he dismissed it on the surface.

“Do you actually know what a treasure is?” The Double-Headed Black Dragon almost exploded his lungs out of anger.

Although this ‘Dragon Whistle’ was only a Gold-Ranked treasure, its role was infinite and was far beyond the level of its rank. If it was not restricted to controlling those beneath the Heaven Rank, this treasure would have outweighed any Holy-Ranked treasure.

For an extremely strong cultivator, the use of the Dragon Whistle was very small, being borderline useless.

However, the extremely strong must have a group of subordinates, right?

With this ‘Dragon Whistle’, anyone could summon ancient dragons and flying dragons that were below the Heaven Rank to form a dragon army. Blowing this Dragon Whistle at any time, he would be able to summon the dragon army that had a maximum number of 10,000 under his command to his side. With such an outstanding quantity and with the quality of the flying units in hand, even fools would be able to rule an area for themselves in the Heaven Realm.

The Double-Headed Black Dragon had used a lot of energy to snatch it from the hands of a challenger.

It never thought that the kid Yue Yang had the audacity to dismiss Dragon Whistle.

This really made it infuriated!

Yue Yang had his reasons, “I don’t lack a mount. What good is there for a person like this young master riding a dragon below the Heaven Rank? I would be so ashamed! Let’s also talk about riding a dragon— it’s uncomfortable. It’s not like there’s no dragons where I live, it’s just that I am quite bored of them already. With all of that leisurely energy, I might as well take a luxury airship.”

The Double-Headed Black Dragon felt speechless for a while as it understood a little bit now.

Why didn’t this kid know about the pricelessness of treasures?

The reason was very simple. This kid is probably the eldest young master of a super influential family. He might even be the eldest young master of that particular race from the legends. So why would he ever desire a mere Dragon Whistle when he probably hasn’t ever lacked anything since birth?

“With this Dragon Whistle, forming a dragon army out of pride wouldn’t be less astonishing however,” The Double-Headed Black Dragon felt that it was too much of a waste to keep the trause here. In order to increase the value of the treasure of Dragon Whistle, it added some bargaining chips, “If you are willing to exchange, then I will give you another Dragon Contract!”

“I still have to use the Dragon Contract to contract with a dragon? They are the ones that line up and beg for me to make a contract with them. Do you think I accept any kind of beast? It must be a beautiful Battle-Beast! To Hell with your dragon items; scram aside! Unless I were to sew a puppet out of your teeth, I’m not going to make a deal with no benefits ” Student Yue Yang harrumphed.

“This…”

The Double-Headed Black Dragon started to believe Yue Yang’s words in the slightest.

This kid looked like a strong dude. He didn’t like the Dragon Contract, but adored a beautiful Battle-type Beast— it was very possible for him to be an important figure.

All prodigal sons looked like this!

The more the Double-Headed Black Dragon looked at Yue Yang, the more it felt that this kid was a prodigy. Of course, it couldn’t control what kind of personality student Yue Yang has, but it couldn’t care less either. But he probably isn’t a failure, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to offer that many Martial Spirit Pills. Maybe his family had worked hard to make the little amounts of the Martial Spirit Pills and left it for him to use in emergencies, but he didn’t bother to take it seriously.

Thinking of this, the Double-Headed Black Dragon felt that the Martial Spirit Pills that had been delivered to its doorstep should be taken.

Finally, it descended another step, “Three bottles of dragon blood and the Dragon Whistle. Plus, the dragon horns,dragon scales, and I will chip in the Indestructible Dragon Claws. Also, I will add in a Moon Gem and a Star Stone in exchange for ten pills!”

Yue Yang pretended not to hear the dragon as he dug his ears slowly with the tips of his fingers.

The Double-Headed Black Dragon was cheeky, trying not to be enraged, “Four bottles of dragon blood; I’ll add one more bottle on top. How about it?”

“A bucket of dragon blood would be acceptable…” Student Yue Yang put forward a condition that made the Double-Headed Black Dragon want nothing more than to kill him.

“A bucket of dragon blood? Even the smallest bucket is enough to fill ten bottles. What do you think my blood is? That is dragon blood, not spring water. Besides, I will die if I provide a bucket of blood for you all at once, ” The Double-Headed Black Dragon was very mad.

“For you, big guy, a bucket of dragon blood is nothing. At worst, it would be similar to your menstruation!” Yue Yang said. With that, everyone else who was watching the negotiation at a distance wanted to just collapse..

“I’m a man!” The blue veins on the Double-Headed Black Dragon’s head violently popped.

T/L Note: I love this gender clarifying thing the author is doing for these few chapters.

“I was making an analogy,” Student Yue Yang suddenly put on a grinning expression, “To this day, I haven’t seen a dragon shed blood in front of my eyes before. If I don’t get to see it today, I will not give up on that…” This time, not only did the others like the Poisonous Queen Bee, Ryoma and the Sickle Weasel from a distance wanted to collapse, but even the Double-headed Black Dragon himself wanted to do so as well. He had never seen such a psychologically apt person before. He wondered where he got his arrogance and nonchalance from— he was simply a scourge to the heavens!

However, the Double-Headed Black Dragon really believed him.

It’s not surprising that this young master, who as a child, had all of his wishes and desires granted and was believed to be the jewel of his elders. Becoming a little crooked after growing up didn’t seem out of the picture.

In order to satisfy student Yue Yang’s wishes and for the Martial Spirit Pills that he was about to obtain, the Double-Headed Black Dragon had to make a sacrifice as a pool of blood gushed from his neck.

“There’s nothing much to look at!” Yue Yang curled his lips boredly after seeing it.

“If you keep talking, I’ll end you!” The Double-Headed Black Dragon felt that the child was too used to arrogance. It would not end well if the dragon didn’t try to teach him a lesson.

“Well, for the sake of you crying, I’ll give you ten Martial Spirit Pills!” Yue Yang took out a mutton jade bottle and counted it. He found that there were as many as eleven Martial Spirit Pills. He was going to pour one of them out, but the Double-Headed Black Dragon was quick to grab it. Fearing that this kid Yue Yang would turn his back on him, his other claw quickly threw out dragon teeth and dragon horns and piled them in front of him. Then, he finally hung the Dragon Whistle on Yue Yang’s neck. Even before Yue Yang was aware, he had also stuffed the Moon Gem and the Star Stone into his pockets.

Yue Yang was about to speak, but the Double-Headed Black Dragon held his hand tightly with his claws as he announced with a smile on his face, “The transaction is successful!”

As for Yue Yang’s deadly stare, the Double-Headed Black Dragon simply turned a blind eye to that.

Stupid boy, you have to be a bit of a rascal in business propositions.

You won’t be able to survive being a man of culture!

He found that he liked to see the dejected look on the arrogant kid Yue Yang. As soon as he saw his slumped shoulders and listless form, he couldn’t help patting his shoulder with its paws and comforted him, “Young man, suffering is a blessing in disguise, you should understand this truth. Hey, where are you going? Don’t you want this dragon blood? You’re really leaving, and you seriously don’t want this anymore?”

Student Yue Yang was very sad, looking like an innocent child who was cheated by others,”No, I don’t want them anymore.”

Listening to his tone, the Double-Headed Black Dragon had a trace of guilt.

Am I bullying this little guy too much?

He could be considered a senior who was tens of thousands of years old, yet this kid is still a small bean sprout who has just emerged. It seemed to be a bit too rogue to him… Of course, it was impossible for him to return the Martial Spirit Pills. After thinking about it, he spat out a blazing golden flame again and handed it to Yue Yang, “A child will always be a child, what use is there to cry? I suppose you were rather pleasing to look at, so I’ll give this to you! This is the Dragon Flame that I have condensed for thousands of years. It is the most powerful flame in the world and it will never die!”

“Isn’t the everlasting flame the Nirvana Flame?” Student Yue Yang said, his expression stating that if he wanted to deceive others, he should at least try to be professional.

“The Nirvana Flame is unique as it is something unattainable. Except for that, it is indeed my ‘Dragon Flame’ that is the most powerful. At any rate, it is a good thing!” The old Double-Headed Black Dragon blushed as he continued bragging. Thank Goodness that no one here had seen the Nirvana Flame!

“Really?” Student Yue Yang heard this and asked dubiously.

“Of course, you take it back and study it slowly. If your beast can absorb it, it will increase its strength!” The Double-Headed Black Dragon motioned to the onlookers in the distance to come over and help move the dragon teeth and the dragon horns. Then, he made an excuse to take a rest and sent student Yue Yang out of its dragon domain. After Yue Yang went far away, he laughed triumphantly

Boy, no matter how smart you are, how can you compare to this ten-thousand year old dragon? The dragon teeth were all replaced, and they were not worth anything at all; the dragon blood of his would be restored within a few days, and he would have an ample amount of it by then. It is a pity, though, that the Dragon Whistle and the Dragon Flame were needed. However, with these eleven Martial Spirit Pills, he could at the very least break through and improve by one level. Even having one pill would be worth the amount of items he gave Yue Yang, let alone eleven!

The more the Double-Headed Black Dragon thought about it, the more proud he became and yet, the more unhappy he got.

That kid was indeed very clever and hard to strike a deal with.

However, compared with himself, he is still far behind!

Seeing Yue Yang’s face at a loss, Ryoma and the Sickle Weasel were still oddly curious. They discreetly asked the Poisonous Queen Bee, “Was it really a loss? Why do I think that it was a big profit?”

The two asked very quietly, but they dared not let Student Yue Yang hear it.

After hearing this, the Poisonous Queen Bee rolled her eyes, “Are you both going to become pigs after you died once? Do you think the Third Young Master will do business at a loss?”

Ryoma and the Sickle Weasel suddenly realized and hurriedly slapped themselves. To ask such silly things, they really were becoming denser the longer they were alive.

Yue Yang held a negative opinion, “It’s a real loss. If you don’t even have a bit of acting skills or if you all could cooperate a little bit better, I could at least double the gain! I said earlier that you all shouldn’t follow along, but you all wanted to. That made the old guy see some signs and he clung to it. Otherwise, how could there only be such a small thing!”

“Third Young Master, this is already a lot. We have cooperated with you to squeeze twice as much profit from him. The old dragon must be feeling so miserable and helpless. Even if we did have the acting skills, we will feel uneasy in our conscience!” Although the Sickle Weasel felt that he himself was a bad person, he would feel a sense of guilt had the profits been doubled.

“Maybe there might even be a scourge!” Ryoma thought about forcing a double profit and instantaneously, he remained at war with himself.

“That is the sophistry of the incompetent!” Student Yue Yang directly roasted them. “If you don’t have the ability, why would you still learn to speak of conscience?”

“…” Ryoma and the Sickle Weasel looked at each other in tears.
