Chapter 124 Cultivating Demonic Energy
Seeing that the black dragon was finally looking at it, Frost Soul withdrew its form and gradually shrank into the mist. "You colluded with the human race, allowing Ice Yi to secretly nurture its divine soul here. Now that its divine soul has matured, you want to help it be reborn." Frost Soul's voice was filled with madness. "My demon race is already in decline, so why can your demon race be reborn? You want it to be reborn? You're dreaming!"
The black dragon opened its mouth and exhaled a breath of black dragon breath. The rolling flames directly ignited the mist on the opposite mountain. The black karmic fire burned, even dyeing the moon in the sky black.
As heavy snow fell, four icy figures burst out of the mist, their bodies instantly exploding into cold rain that extinguished the black karmic fire.
"Hmph! Using your own demon general to pay for your own life, Frost Soul, you chicken out!" The black dragon's disdainful voice pierced through space and landed directly in Frost Soul's ears.
"After I devour Bingyi's soul tomorrow, I will make you pay the price."
The black dragon's blood-red eyes suddenly narrowed, the red gradually fading until they returned to their usual black. Its massive body lay down, resting its head on a tree root. "A coward, no longer worthy to be my opponent."
Ning Xiaoxi huddled tightly in the corner, clutching Kuiwei's head, not daring to show her face at all! That demonic energy, that monster energy, that powerful aura that felt like it would crack her bones, almost made her stop breathing.
At this moment, the moonlight poured down on the black dragon as if it were a tangible substance. In the hazy light, wisps of black energy began to seep out from its scales, dissipating into the air after being illuminated by the moonlight.
The jade cabbage appeared in Ning Xiaoxi's hand, straining towards the black dragon. Ning Xiaoxi gripped the cabbage tightly, but couldn't stop its approach. Reluctantly, she released Kuiwei's protection and moved a few steps towards the black dragon's head. Then, Ning Xiaoxi saw the wisps of black energy being swallowed by the cabbage.
The black dragon opened one eye and looked at the cabbage. "Your pet?"
"It is a jade cabbage."
"Don't eat too much, or you'll overeat." After saying that, Black Dragon closed his eyes again, ignoring Cabbage's little actions.
Ning Xiaoxi's eyes lit up. So the big boss meant it was edible? Thinking of this, she raised her hand and placed the jade cabbage between the black dragon's scales. The black energy no longer dissipated in wisps, but instead gathered into a stream of black energy that flowed into the gaps of the cabbage.
Clearly feeling the joy emanating from the cabbage, Ning Xiaoxi didn't know what she had raised. Since she wanted to eat it, she might as well eat it; after all, the big boss hadn't stopped her.
As the black mist flowed out, the black dragon's scales brightened several shades and appeared somewhat lustrous.
At this moment, the chubby little figure appeared, holding the jade cabbage in his arms, sitting upright on the black dragon's scales, opening his mouth, and beginning to draw in a stream of black energy, with an intoxicated expression on his chubby face.
Ning Xiaoxi stared blankly at the chubby little figure. Last time she had only seen a blurry shadow and wasn't sure, but now she was certain. "Lord Di An!"
After giving Ning Xiaoxi a sidelong glance, the chubby little boy continued to absorb the black energy, while secretly waving his chubby little hand at Ning Xiaoxi.
Is this the same kind of spirit cultivated by the strategist?
"The jade stone, blessed by the Kuafu tribe, developed a crack after blocking an attack. This little fat boy is clever; he hid his soul inside it," the black dragon said with his eyes closed. "However, he's nourished by absorbing demonic energy, and he'll eventually become a demon himself. Are you sure you want him to continue eating?"
Ning Xiaoxi sat up straight, supporting her chin with her hands, and looked at the chubby little boy. "My lord, Bingyi is your obsession, while Lord Di'an and the strategist are my obsessions."
The black dragon turned its head and opened its eyes.
"I was originally just a carefree young lady from an official family, never lifting a finger, my daily worries revolving around what to eat, how to eat, what to wear, and how to wear it." Was that her past life? It seems like so much time has passed. Is that how she is in this life? It seems like she hasn't experienced much. "Back then, I didn't even know that demons existed in this world. Under the protection of the Celestial Master Pavilion and the dynasty, the human race has selectively forgotten much of its history."
Her father in her past life was a bit chubby, and for his health, she and her mother tried every possible way to get him to lose weight, but he just couldn't. The strategist, with a serious and earnest face, tried to smile at her, much like her sixth-grade homeroom teacher. "Lord Di'an looks kind and approachable, but he's ruthless when facing demons. It's actually quite difficult for him to smile at me; he's the eldest son of the Bai clan and shouldn't have left his clan's territory, but he came to Panhou Mountain City for Lord Di'an. In the end, they both stayed there."
Ning Xiaoxi's voice gradually lowered, the moonlight began to dim, and the radiance was no longer dazzling, "But, only three days, do you know that? Only three days, three days, is his life only worth three days?"
The chubby boy's body trembled, and the black energy seemed to break apart.
“I don’t understand, they paid with their lives!” Ning Xiaoxi stared at the chubby little boy. “I was the one who brought up the Panhou Mountain City incident. I was young and ignorant, and I brazenly told the strategist that there was a demon there, so that the Heavenly Masters’ Sect’s Heavenly Gangs went to kill the demon general, but I brought death to Lord Di’an and the strategist.”
The black aura was thinning, and the chubby little figure, its body round and plump, had closed its mouth and was absorbing the black aura while hugging the cabbage. Its chubby face hadn't yet shown any features; all that could be made out was that it was a small, chubby head.
"Perhaps in the eyes of the Celestial Masters of the Celestial Masters Pavilion, they are just a Dark Star and his strategist, but to me, they are my friends. They should not be easily forgotten; they are more than just the Dark Star and strategist of the Celestial Masters Pavilion." Ning Xiaoxi tapped the little fat man's head with her finger. Even though it looked much clearer than before, it was still a phantom. Where her finger landed, it went straight through.
Black Dragon also looked at the chubby little man who had been eaten and was somewhat deformed, "This little guy can eat quite a lot."
Ning Xiaoxi laughed, "So, no matter what it turns out to be in the end, I don't care."
The black dragon's long body began to dissipate, revealing a long robe covering his slender figure. Except for the small scales that had not yet disappeared from his forehead, he returned to the aloof and cold Nine Realms.
"Once it becomes a demon, it will be hunted down, just like a monster." The black dragon shook the water bag he had just picked up from the tree root; it was empty.
Ning Xiaoxi naturally took out another water bag and handed it over.
When the black dragon transformed back into human form, the black aura completely disappeared, and the chubby little man also crawled into the crack of the jade cabbage.
Black Dragon paused, his hand holding the water bag stopped, and he narrowed his eyes as he looked at the jade cabbage that had returned to Ning Xiaoxi's palm. Then he smiled and said, "I see!"
