CHAPTER 956: CHAPTER 80: ANOTHER TRUTH

"Ah!!"

A peculiar scream rang out, transmitted through mental waves into Zhang Xiaoman’s mind.

The sound seemed like it came from the mouth of a naive child, very sharp.

"It’s it!"

Zhang Xiaoman immediately understood what was going on.

Although that figure had just flashed by, in the world of divine sense, there was no such thing as misseeing.

Just one glance, even for a brief moment, could see through the other’s appearance.

The small blue figure was clearly the giant dragon Ni Yang he had just seen in the lake, just a shrunken version of it.

Zhang Xiaoman immediately chased after it.

"Don’t come over!"

The blue figure darted ahead quickly, like a nimble little fish, screaming incessantly as it ran.

Zhang Xiaoman tried to chase for a distance, finding that he couldn’t quite catch up, so he stopped.

He recalled when his divine thought entered the Jade just now, then had an idea, sending a thought that caused the surrounding formation to start operating.

"Don’t come over! Don’t come over!"

The voice that was gradually getting farther away began to draw near again, and looking up, he saw the green little dragon flying uncontrollably toward him.

"So that’s how it is!"

Zhang Xiaoman realized, now that the Sect Leader Jade had acknowledged him as its master, that within this formation, a single thought could capture the little dragon.

The little dragon, realizing that it had been captured, simply stopped struggling, coiled its body, and looked fiercely at Zhang Xiaoman, saying:

"You little brat, how dare you be so disrespectful to my majesty! I should just swallow you whole!"

Hearing its childish voice, Zhang Xiaoman didn’t feel threatened at all but instead found it quite adorable.

"Oh? Then come and try it."

He smiled at the creature.

"Uh..."

The little dragon was momentarily speechless, then put on a serious and earnest expression and said:

"Kid, you’d better let my majesty go quickly, it’s for your own good, don’t you know that you’re in big trouble now!?"

Zhang Xiaoman remained unmoved, simply watching him quietly.

The little dragon, seeing this, hurriedly said:

"Kid, don’t you know that the Jade in your hand is an artifact of the Immortal Palace? It ended up in the Mortal World because it was stolen by that old Tianyuan during the chaos. It’s a hot potato! Now that you’ve taken it, when those from the Immortal Palace find you, you won’t even know how you ended up dead!"

"Really? Are you sure?"

"Do I even have to say it! My majesty—I’m the strongest divine beast in the Immortal Realm, a master of fortune, why would I lie to a little brat like you?"

"You listen to my majesty, release my primordial spirit from in here, and I can ensure your cultivation path is smooth. If those Immortal Palace fools chase you, I can deal with them one by one."

"Besides, my majesty’s power is profound, I can wipe out your human clan’s Immortal Palace with a snap of my fingers. Back in the day, I led four little brothers from the Ascending Immortal Gate all the way to the Ten Thousand Immortals Hall, you haven’t seen that scene... So I advise you to let my majesty out, otherwise, when my power recovers, humph humph..."

"..."

Zhang Xiaoman looked at it with a strange expression, finding it rather amusing.

Unexpectedly, Ni Yang, one of the legendary five great demon kings of the Immortal Realm, turned out to be such a bluffing character, quite contrary to his expectations.

This guy didn’t look anything like the Divine Dragon he remembered, instead, it had a hint of Master Liu’s demeanor.

"If you’re so powerful, then why can’t you get out by yourself?"

His sudden question stopped the still-ranting green little dragon, which then wiggled toward him, shouting in its childlike voice:

"Damned human kid! How dare you bully me so much! Didn’t you hear anything I just said!? I’ll fight you!"

Zhang Xiaoman, hearing its last sentence, instinctively wanted to say, "Sorry, I don’t use group-buy apps, nor do I catch mice for you."

But seeing the little dragon’s barred-teeth expression, he decided not to provoke it further, although it wouldn’t understand anyway.

A thought in his mind, the surrounding formation lit up, instantly immobilizing the little dragon in place.

"Alright, Ni Yang, stop trying to fool me, so that’s why you ran so fast, you had your primordial spirit sealed in here..."

Zhang Xiaoman said.

He now understood why the Tianyuan Sect’s Secret Scripture said that the Sect Leader Jade could suppress demon beasts.

It turned out that its primordial spirit was imprisoned here, and with just a thought, he could subdue it, even control its life and death, just like the Tightening Spell of Tang Sanzang.

Although he still couldn’t figure out the principle of the primordial spirit, it was unimportant for now. What mattered was he could incapacitate the dragon.

Ni Yang, realizing his words had been seen through, began to threaten brazenly out of shame and anger.

"Kid! I advise you to let my majesty go immediately, otherwise when I get out, I will surely..."

But, his words were abruptly cut off, followed by a series of wailing screams.

"Ah!! Damned kid! Don’t let my majesty out, or I’ll definitely..."
