Gods: Start with Goblins

The reason why I pay attention to you is that your aura is somewhat similar to that of an old friend I once knew. "

The master's words stunned Jiaolong and the surrounding demon soldiers. They didn't expect that the master would take the initiative to explain, and explained so directly and honestly. Jiaolong's nervousness and anxiety instantly dissipated. He looked at the master gratefully and said respectfully: "Thank you for your insight. I really don't know you. If there is a chance, I will do my best to serve the demons to repay your generosity."

Hearing this, the master smiled with satisfaction. He knew that his words not only resolved the dragon's confusion and anxiety, but also successfully subdued this powerful dragon. In the days to come, this dragon will surely become a powerful force in the demon clan and contribute to the prosperity of the demon clan.

"Or did this guy do something to you before? Do we need to take action?" Another soldier echoed the previous words. His voice was deep and powerful, and there was an unquestionable chill in his tone, like a sharp ice blade, ready to cut through the fog in front of him at any time. His eyes were fixed on the dragon, as if as long as you give an order, they would rush towards the dragon like a cheetah and subdue it.

Hearing these words, Jiaolong felt even more uneasy, as if a huge rock was pressing on his heart, making it almost impossible for him to breathe. He knew that he was in the territory of the demon clan at the moment, and any rash action could lead to his death. He stood there, his huge body trembling slightly, not because of fear, but because of his inner anxiety and uneasiness. His eyes were full of fear, as if he was recalling a moment that left him with lingering fears.

"I...I really haven't offended the master!" Jiaolong's voice was trembling. He racked his brains but couldn't figure out how he had offended this master. He and this master really didn't know each other and had never had any intersection! His heart was full of confusion and helplessness, as if he was caught in a vortex that he couldn't escape.

"Could this lord have made a mistake?" Jiaolong muttered to himself. Although his voice was weak, it was particularly clear in the palace where only his own heartbeat could be heard. He looked up at the lord, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate all the fog, trying to find a trace of admitting his mistake, or even a little warmth and reconciliation on his face. However, the lord's face was as cold as an iceberg, without any expression, as if it was a snowy peak that would never melt, making it impossible to peek into his true thoughts.

"Sir, I... I really don't know you, and I have never offended you." Jiaolong mustered up his courage and said in a trembling voice. He knew that his current situation was very dangerous, but he still hoped that there would be a chance of a turnaround so that he could escape this unprovoked disaster.

Hearing this, the master narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was examining Jiaolong. He was silent for a while, then slowly spoke: "Jiaolong, you don't need to be nervous. I really don't know you, and we have never had any grudges. The reason why I pay attention to you is that the aura on you is similar to that of an old friend I once knew. I will never forget that aura."

The master's words stunned Jiaolong and the surrounding demon soldiers. They didn't expect that the master would take the initiative to explain, and explained so directly and honestly. Jiaolong's nervousness and anxiety instantly dissipated. He looked at the master gratefully and said respectfully: "Thank you for your insight. I really don't know you. If there is a chance, I will do my best to serve the demons to repay your generosity."

"I have never met you, but I have never forgotten you. This is impossible!" Jiaolong continued to talk to himself. His voice echoed in the empty palace, with a hint of helplessness and confusion. He lowered his head, his huge body trembled slightly, and his confused eyes seemed to tell the pain in his heart. He knew very well that in the hierarchical society of the demon clan, the importance of identity and status was self-evident. He was just a small Jiaolong. Although he had impressive strength, he was just an insignificant existence in the demon clan. How could he have anything to do with this noble and powerful adult? This was simply a fairy tale, which made him feel absurd and helpless.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the palace suddenly became solemn. The master suddenly spoke, his voice was low and majestic, as if it contained endless power, and like an echo in the abyss, people couldn't help but feel awe: "Jiaolong, you don't need to be nervous. I really don't know you, and I have never had any grudges. The reason why I pay attention to you is not because of you, but because of the aura on your body... It reminds me of an old friend."

The master's words stunned Jiaolong. He looked up at the master, his eyes flashing with doubt and curiosity. He didn't expect that he would attract the master's attention because of his aura. He couldn't help but ask: "Master, who is that old friend? What is his relationship with me?"

Hearing this, the master was silent for a moment. His eyes became deep and distant, as if he had traveled through the barriers of time and space and returned to the distant past. Then, he slowly opened his mouth and told a long-forgotten story: "That was a comrade who had fought side by side with me for many years. His name was Long Xiaotian. We had experienced countless life and death tests together and forged a deep friendship. However, in a battle, he was unfortunately seriously injured and eventually died on the battlefield. Since then, I have been looking for someone with a similar aura to him, hoping to find his reincarnation or descendants."

Jiaolong was moved when he heard the story. He had never thought that the master would be so affectionate and never forget his former comrades. At the same time, he felt a little lucky because he could be related to such a great man. He said respectfully: "Master, although I don't know the senior Long Xiaotian, if you need me, I am willing to do my best to help you find his reincarnation or descendants."

The master looked at Jiaolong's sincere eyes and couldn't help but secretly praise him. He knew that he had chosen the right person. This Jiaolong was not only powerful, but also kind-hearted and loyal. He smiled and nodded: "Okay, Jiaolong, I appreciate your kindness. However, finding the reincarnation or descendants of Long Xiaotian is not an easy task. It requires time and patience. You should do the things in front of you first, and when there is a chance, I will take you to find it together." ————————————

Hearing this, Jiaolong felt relieved, as if a huge rock had been removed from his chest, making him feel more relaxed and at ease than ever before. He knew that he had finally been freed from this sudden, clueless disaster, and was no longer the poor creature who was misunderstood and suspected. He looked at the lord gratefully, his eyes full of awe and gratitude seemed to be able to speak, and he said respectfully: "Thank you for your insight, lord. I have never met you before and have never had any intersection. I am very lucky to have you be so magnanimous today. If there is a chance, I will do my best to serve the demon clan, and I will go through fire and water without hesitation to repay your kindness and magnanimity."

Hearing this, the master nodded slightly, revealing a barely perceptible satisfied smile on his face. That smile was like a ray of warm sunshine in spring, warm but not dazzling, but enough to make people feel his kindness and recognition. He knew very well that his words not only resolved the confusion and anxiety in the dragon's heart, but also established his own majestic and compassionate image invisibly, and at the same time successfully subdued this powerful dragon. In the days to come, this dragon will surely become a powerful force for the demon clan, contributing his strength to the prosperity and prosperity of the demon clan. And this unexpected encounter is destined to leave a strong and colorful mark in the long history of the demon clan, and become a legendary story that future generations will talk about with relish.

In the dark and solemn hall of the Demon Clan's palace, the atmosphere gradually eased. Luo Dan, the leader of the demon clan, coughed lightly, and the sound echoed in the empty space, with a kind of majesty and solemnity that could not be ignored. He slowly stood up, his upright figure standing like a mountain, his eyes as sharp as torches, staring directly at the huge dragon in front of him. His eyes revealed a subtle indifference and alienation, but more of a deep and wise look, as if he could see through the deepest secrets of people's hearts.

"Jiaolong, since you are willing to work for the demons, I will give you a chance." Luo Dan pondered for a moment and spoke slowly. His voice was low and powerful, as if it contained endless power. "Recently, the demon border has been frequently invaded. I need you to lead a team to the border to guard our homeland. Are you up to the task?"

Hearing this, Jiaolong's eyes flashed with determination. He knew that he had finally waited for the opportunity to prove himself, and he also knew the difficulty and importance of this mission. But he did not hesitate at all, but straightened his chest and answered loudly: "My lord, I am willing! I will do my best to protect the border of the demon clan and not let any enemy step into our territory! Please rest assured!"

Luo Dan looked at the determined look and high morale of Jiaolong, and couldn't help but secretly praise him. He knew that he had chosen the right person, and that Jiaolong would live up to expectations and make great contributions to the demon clan. So, he reached out and gently patted Jiaolong on the shoulder: "Okay, Jiaolong, you really didn't disappoint me. Go, get ready, and set off for the border tomorrow. Remember, your mission is not only to guard the border, but also to show the power of the demon clan and terrify those enemies who dare to invade us!"

"It's true that I'm not familiar with you," Luo Dan said slowly. His voice was low and powerful. Every word seemed to be carefully considered and carried a kind of majesty that could not be ignored. "But if the aura on you makes me feel a little disgusted, or even makes me lose control all of a sudden, then things become complicated. Your aura is mixed with the smell of humans. I will never mistake this smell. You should have had contact with humans, or even have a deeper connection with them."

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall fell into a dead silence, and even the air seemed to freeze. The demon soldiers all turned their eyes to Jiaolong, their eyes were full of confusion, shock, and even a hint of anger. They couldn't understand why Jiaolong, who was obviously a member of the demon clan and a comrade-in-arms who fought side by side with them, was tainted with the breath of the human race? The reason behind this made people doubtful, as if there was a fog shrouding their hearts, making it difficult for them to see the truth.

"You...you can't be..." A demon soldier suddenly spoke, his voice trembling with a hint of disbelief and anger, "An undercover agent sent here! No wonder we didn't notice anything strange about you before. If we hadn't been shocked by what the master said just now, we would still be in the dark. You are so cruel and scheming, hiding it so deeply, no wonder we didn't notice anything wrong at all! How long are you going to hide your schemes like this before you reveal your true face?"

The soldier's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, stirring up ripples. Other demon soldiers also echoed him, their voices filled with anger and confusion: "Yes, Jiaolong, why did you betray our demon race and collude with the human race? Do you deserve our demon race's trust and cultivation of you by doing this?"

Facing the questioning of the crowd, Jiaolong's face turned pale, and he widened his eyes, as if to prove his innocence: "No, it's not like that! I have never betrayed the demons, nor have I ever colluded with the human race. The aura on my body may be because I was injured in the human race's territory before, and was contaminated by their aura. But I promise that I am definitely a member of the demon clan, loyal to the demon clan, and I have no second thoughts!"

Luo Dan looked at Jiaolong's anxious look, and a trace of doubt flashed through his mind. He knew that things were not that simple, and the aura on Jiaolong was definitely not just contamination. But he also understood that this alone could not be used to conclude that Jiaolong was an undercover agent. So, he spoke slowly, with a hint of majesty and compassion in his voice: "Jiaolong, you don't need to be nervous. We, the demons, have always been based on facts and will not easily wrongly accuse anyone. We will further investigate the aura on you. But before that, I hope you can stay calm and don't do anything that will cause us to misunderstand."

Luo Dan's words were like a warm current flowing into Jiao Long's heart, giving him a sense of comfort. He knew that he still had a chance to prove his innocence and clear himself of suspicion. So, he bowed his head respectfully, with a hint of firmness in his voice: "Thank you for your trust, sir. I will definitely cooperate with the investigation to prove my innocence.
