Chapter 234: Flood Dragon
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Here, over here!” A carved dragon on the left side of the roof suddenly moved.
“What is that… a dragon?” Ji Jing squinted and only then noticed that among the lineup of animal sculptures on the roof, one of them was not a statue at all but a living little black dragon.
However, its black color was so similar to the color of the tiles that at first glance, it could be mistaken for one of the typical dragon-shaped sculptures on the roof.
“It’s a Jiaolong,” Mingze recognized the little demon on the roof.
A Jiaolong, despite resembling a dragon, lacks the horns and claws of a true dragon. It can only transform into a true dragon after long periods of cultivation. However, the little Jiaolong before them was obviously too small, and the prospect of becoming a true dragon was a distant one.
“Hmph, that’s right, it’s me,” the Jiaolong effortlessly leaped to the edge of the roof, transforming into a young man in a black round-collared robe. “Just call me Ye Heng.”
With long boots, wristguards, and a high ponytail, he stood on the edge of the roof as if he were the protagonist of a martial arts novel—unless he wasn’t kicked off by the little gluttonous beast.
The little gluttonous beast, seizing the opportunity while no one was looking, suddenly shot up like a small projectile and kicked Ye Heng in the back.
“Ah!” Ye Heng flailed his arms desperately but couldn’t maintain his balance, tumbling solidly from the roof.
“Bang!” It seemed that the small Jiaolong had a small body but a substantial weight. The fall was quite harsh.
“Hey!” Ji Jing was startled by the commotion. “Are you okay?”
A Jiaolong should be able to survive a fall from three meters high, right?
“Jiang Tao! How dare you kick me?!” Ye Heng rolled onto his back, quickly climbed to his feet, ignoring the dust on his clothes, and started scolding the little gluttonous beast.
“Just kicked you, what are you gonna do about it!” The little gluttonous beast taunted arrogantly. “If you dare, come and fight me. You won’t be able to beat me!”
The little gluttonous beast couldn’t stand people showing off and trying to be cool, and it was even worse when the one trying to act cool was Ye Heng. So, it was even more necessary to deflate his ego.
Arch-enemies met and glared at each other; almost simultaneously, they charged at each other.
“…,” Ji Jing watched the sudden chaos in front of her and was momentarily speechless. At least it didn’t look like anyone got hurt.
“Let them fight; they’ve been fighting for over a hundred years,” Mingze commented nonchalantly. “There’s also a little phoenix. The three of them have had a grudge since birth. It would be strange if they didn’t fight when they meet.”
“Grudge since birth?” Ji Jing didn’t understand. What kind of fate was that?
“Yes, they were all born on the same day, and there happened to be an auspicious omen that day. Their parents argued over who the omen belonged to,” Mingze recalled with a hint of helplessness.
Their parents compared them from a young age – who would transform first, who would learn to write first, whose abilities were higher, who would mature faster. The more they were compared, the more they looked down on each other, and their grudge only grew.
“Bang!” The two of them, entangled in the air, froze at the same time. Their spiritual energy stagnated, and they both crashed hard onto the ground.
“This is someone else’s home, you know,” Ji Jing offered a friendly smile. “Fighting is not good.”
Ye Heng nodded with a stiff neck, terrified by the immense pressure. This woman was scary, and her smile was terrifying! He couldn’t move his limbs; what had she done?
“I, I was wrong!” The little gluttonous beast quickly lowered his head in apology, well aware of how terrifying Ji Jing’s anger could be.
Even when admitting his mistake, the little gluttonous beast couldn’t help but cast a meaningful look at Ye Heng. “Hurry up! Otherwise, we’ll both die here!”
“I was wrong too! I shouldn’t have fought in someone else’s house! I’ll fix the roof right away!” Ye Heng quickly understood and felt the immense pressure, making them put aside their enmity and act like obedient little monsters..
