Douluo Continent: The Time-Stopping Evil Dragon, They All Want to Tame Me

Chapter 105

"What exactly do you want to do?!"

The fact that the dragon could speak human language was something the people of Tianshui Academy had never expected.

The dean of Tianshui Academy, on the other hand, considered the possibility of negotiating with the evil dragon.

After all, this time the dragon did not directly attack and destroy buildings or abduct young and beautiful women as rumored.

Its sudden arrival at Tianshui Academy must have been for some other purpose.

"Hehe, talking to smart people is so easy."

"You guessed right, I do have other things to do on this trip to Tianshui Academy."

"If you can offer me five million gold soul coins, I will let you go."

Five million!?

That's an astronomical figure!

Such a huge sum of money would require considerable effort not only for Tianshui Academy, but even for the two great empires to come up with it.

Of course, for the Heaven Dou Empire, it might not be considered a difficult task.

Because the evil dragon launched a surprise attack on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the entire sect's treasury was destroyed, and the mountain range where it was located was also reduced to ruins.

The entire warehouse of gold soul coins melted into liquid gold, which flowed all over the ground.

Afterwards, the Heavenly Dou Empire sent people to collect all the re-solidified gold and put it into the national treasury, ostensibly to temporarily safeguard it for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and that they would naturally return it when the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was able to develop again.

In short, they were afraid that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would "not be able to hold onto" such a large sum of money.

Of course, later, when Sword Douluo Chen Xin appeared and brought more than 30 members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School who were traveling around the Douluo Continent to Tian Dou City, the Tian Dou royal family returned one-third of the wealth, and the rest was still "held in trust".

But how could Tianshui Academy compare to these behemoths?

Faced with the dragon's outrageous demands, the dean of Tianshui Academy frowned, but she remained calm.

Clearly, the dragon was deliberately making things difficult for them.

But what is his real purpose?

"Hehe, no need to guess."

"I know you don't have that many Gold Soul Coins, so..."

"Everyone I've called on today, come with me."

"I hope you won't resist and make me angry."

"Otherwise, Tianshui Academy would surely be decimated and disappear from the Douluo Continent forever."

"As you all know, I was responsible for the destruction of the Haotian Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has a Super Douluo and the strongest support Soul Master on the Douluo Continent, while the Clear Sky School has seven Title Douluos and countless Soul Douluos."

"As the two strongest sects in the entire Douluo Continent, you should all know their strength, right?"

"The small Tianshui Academy only has one Title Douluo powerhouse."

"I advise you not to resist."

really!

Upon hearing the dragon's words, the faces of everyone at Tianshui Academy immediately fell. The dean and all the teachers looked as cold as ice.

Ao Xing, however, completely ignored their expressions.

It immediately extended its dragon claws, pointing at each teacher in the Tianshui Academy and began calling out names.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten."

"Hey, I don't need many, just ten people."

"In the past, I wouldn't have been so easy to talk to."

"Therefore, do not resist my great mercy in any way."

"I'll give you three minutes. The selected person can say a few words to the other friends in the class."

"If I see you still standing there after three minutes, don't blame me for losing my temper."

Ao Xing continued talking to himself.

Meanwhile, the girls from Tianshui Academy who were called upon by the evil dragon either looked ashen-faced or wailed loudly.

But he seemed to see none of it.

"I don't want to! I don't want to go!"

"You must think of the entire academy, put the greater good before personal gain. If you don't leave, all five hundred-plus teachers and students of Tianshui Academy will be doomed."

"Ahhh, no way! I'd never go with a dragon!"

"That's right, that's right."

The women who were called upon cried and screamed incessantly, causing great distress to all.

Their throats seemed to be constricted, and their sobs were filled with despair and helplessness.

Occasionally, it was interspersed with sharp screams, like a cat being torn apart.

Even more so, with the grammar of the voice becoming more intense.

They began to accuse and scuffle with the other women who had urged them to go with the dragon, as if they were caught in an unquenchable argument, a scene that sent chills down one's spine.

"That's enough!"

"If you make another sound, I'll kill you all!"

Ao Xing was annoyed by the noise of a group of women, and his mood began to change. He directly spat out a mouthful of dragon flame, turning a woman in her thirties who was trying to coerce and entice ten women who had been called out to go with him into a pile of ashes.

"Shut up, shut up, shut up! What are you yelling about, you motherfucker?"

"Treat this place like a farmers' market."

"But am I some kind of soft-hearted turtle?"

"They're really asking for trouble."

"And you ten of you, don't stand there crying either."

"I'm not going to kill you all."

"Working with me will definitely lead to better future prospects than staying stuck in this Tianshui College."

"..."

Under Ao Xing's coercion and enticement, the ten young and beautiful teachers from Tianshui Academy who were named by him ultimately had no choice but to leave with him.

Ao Xing also took the opportunity to observe the appearance of the Tianshui Academy sisters.

Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, as the twin beauties of Tianshui Academy, have such identical appearances that they are difficult to tell apart.

Their eyes, as if inlaid with stars, were clear and deep, their eyelashes fluttering like fans, revealing a touch of otherworldly charm.

Between Shui Bing'er's brows, there seemed to be a flowing blue light, and her slightly raised sword-like eyebrows revealed a hint of heroism and determination.

She wore a light blue dress, like a fairy from a clear spring; her skin was as white as snow, crystal clear.

Every step she took seemed like a light dance on the water, her skirt swaying, carrying the water's tenderness and resilience.

Her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, fluttering gently in the wind, exuding a touch of icy coldness.

Shuiyue'er's eyes seemed to hold the shimmering surface of a lake, gentle yet with a hint of cunning.

She wore a moon-white long dress, exuding a gentle yet arrogant radiance.

Her long hair cascaded down her shoulders, each strand seemingly imbued with moonlight, pure and refreshing.

"Not bad, not bad."

"These two, plus Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun, are simply perfect!"

……

In order to become the evil dragon recognized by the system, Ao Xing did not rest on his way back to Purple Pearl Island.

The following scenes continued to unfold throughout the Heaven Dou Empire.

The dragon drew a ferocious arc across the sky, its massive body resembling a moving mountain, inspiring awe and fear.

Its crimson eyes resembled two blazing flames, reflecting the firelight of the village below.

The village, once peaceful and serene, has now been transformed into a sea of ​​fire by the dragon's wrath.

The stone castle was once a sanctuary for the soldiers, but its sturdy walls crumbled at the claws of a dragon, as fragile as paper.

Boulder tumbled down, dust billowed, and cries for help mingled together, creating a symphony of despair.

The castle's flagpole is broken, and the flag droops like a wounded bird, symbolizing that the totem of protection has lost its former glory.

With nowhere to escape, the villagers huddled among the ruins, their faces filled with fear and despair.

The mother held her child tightly, the old man prayed for an unfulfilled blessing, and the young man gripped his weapon, unaware of how to defend against the impending catastrophe that would engulf everything.

Every life is crying out in agony, every heart is bleeding.

Faced with these scenes, Ao Xing felt no pity whatsoever.

He opened his blood-red maw and spewed out scorching breath, as if even the air itself was burning.

Houses and trees were reduced to ashes in the merciless flames, and the laughter and warmth of the past were instantly swallowed up.

Smoke filled the air, the sky was obscured by thick smoke, and even the sunlight lost its warmth.

……

"Report—"

"Yongning Village, Tianchi Village, Shenghun Village, Daluo Village, Zhao Family Village"

"Karltown, Banyan Castle, Spark City"

"A total of twenty-four villages and thirteen towns were destroyed by the evil dragon!"

In the Heavenly Dou Empire, one morning, someone woke up feeling as if the Heavenly Dou Empire had collapsed.

He couldn't understand why the dragon, which only abducted princesses and attacked big cities, would suddenly start targeting small villages and towns.

……

"So, evil spirit masters were already quite common during this period."

"It's just that there's no explicit record of it in the Douluo Continent."

"Of course, the main reason is that the Killing Capital was destroyed by that brat Tang San, right?"

"Otherwise, these evil spirit masters would all have gone to the City of Slaughter."

"Why"

Although Ao Xing committed all sorts of evil deeds, his targets were basically powerful Soul Masters, the army of the Heaven Dou Empire, and evil Soul Masters disguised as kind citizens.

Of course, there were bound to be accidental injuries during this process.

In this fantasy world, the law of the jungle prevails, and being accidentally injured is simply a matter of personal weakness. Ao Xing felt no remorse whatsoever.

During this period, his dragon value also increased by twenty points.

……

On Purple Pearl Island, the craftsmen that Ao Xing had hired have been continuously repairing his Evil Dragon Castle.

The castle is made entirely of gold, dazzling and sparkling under the sunlight.

Every brick and tile of the castle is inlaid with various pearls and gemstones, such as rubies, sapphires, jade, and diamonds, which shimmer with a captivating luster against the backdrop of the seawater.

The castle's silhouette is sleek yet powerful, with towering spires piercing the clouds as if challenging the heavens.

The castle roof is still made of pure gold, smooth as a mirror, with a few golden dragon statues occasionally hovering above it, making it look both mysterious and majestic.

Whenever the sea breeze blows, the jewels collide with each other, making a crisp and melodious sound, like a beautiful musical movement.

Upon entering the castle, the first thing that catches the eye is a sculpture of Ao Xing cast in pure gold in the center of the hall. Its scales are delicate and lifelike, as if they might take flight at any moment. The sculpture's eyes are two enormous rubies, radiating a realistic and fierce light.

The walls around the room were covered with murals made of gold and silver.

The castle's interior corridors are winding and long, with jewel-encrusted windows letting in dappled light and shadow. The floors are paved with gold bricks, and you can feel the weight of each step. At the end of the corridors are rows of lavish rooms, where beds, tables, chairs, and ornaments are all made of gold, exuding a strong nouveau riche atmosphere.

At the very top of the castle, there is a huge observation deck, which offers the best vantage point to overlook the entire castle and the surrounding sea.

Standing here, you can see the waves crashing against the rocks, and in the distance, the afterglow of the setting sun spills onto the sea, turning the whole world into a golden hue.

With the arrival of the dragon, the castle gained a glimmer of life.

"Fortunately, the castle was built big enough, otherwise it might not have been able to accommodate them all."

Of course, Ao Xing wasn't entirely satisfied with what he got from Purple Pearl Island.

His ideal living environment is Poseidon Island.

From Purple Pearl, he learned that:

Poseidon Island is a mysterious, isolated island in the sea, with seven cities built along its shores, like seven shining gems set in the azure sea.

The city's architecture is ancient and majestic, with stone walls soaring into the clouds, symbolizing the supreme power of the sea god.

At each city gate stands a stone pillar sculpted with the heroic figure of the sea god, like loyal guardians protecting the land of faith.

The island has a population of no more than seven thousand, all devout followers of the Sea God, whose daily lives are inextricably linked to the sea. In the city's central square, young Soul Masters practice their Soul Skills. The sea breeze blows, carrying wisps of moisture that mix with their sweat, showcasing the unique atmosphere of Sea God Island.

The island's Soul Beast Forest is shrouded in mystery; it is the territory of soul beasts and a training ground for soul masters. Dense trees rise from the shallow sea beach, and the roars of soul beasts echo from time to time, blending with the rhythm of the waves to compose a symphony of the wilderness.

As night falls, the starry sky over Poseidon Island shines exceptionally bright. The lights lit on the Seven Pillars, like twinkling stars, guide ships on their voyages homeward. A gentle sea breeze carries the salty scent of the ocean and the fragrance of the island's flowers and grasses, immersing visitors in the sacred atmosphere of this land.

The inhabitants of Poseidon Island firmly believe that as long as their faith in the sea god remains, the island will be forever protected by the sea god, and their lives will be as ever-flowing and unending as the sea itself.

……

"Slave all the Sea Spirit Masters on Seagod Island and make them fishermen who catch seafood for me every day."

"Then, all the buildings on Poseidon Island will be gilded."

"Oh, and those damned Poseidon statues, tear them all down!"

After arranging Zhu Zhuqing, Zhu Zhuyun, Shui Bing'er, and Shui Yue'er all in one room, Ao Xing began to dream.

As the Dragon Castle becomes increasingly crowded, he plans to seize the opportunity to occupy Poseidon Island and turn it into his own dragon palace.

"That son of a bitch, Poseidon, is infuriating!"

"Oh right, before that, I also need to help Xue'er obtain her ninth spirit ring."
