320: Chapter 66 Turning Soil into Gold_1 320: Chapter 66 Turning Soil into Gold_1 “Didn’t you just swear to Dragon God Haibo that you’d answer anything I asked?
Why are you reneging now?” Liu Zhenhan asked.
“I’ve already answered enough of your questions.
Even with a vow to the Dragon God, I’ve certainly lived up to the value of benevolence and righteousness.
There’s no soul contract between you and I, and your questions are already beyond my limits, so unless you comply with my demands, I’ll conveniently “forget” about those things.
I’m sorry, my mory has been poor these years.
This mine could be very useful for you Beamon, whether you want to know is up to you.” said the Fairy Dragon.
“Let’s get one thing straight; the War Song Scroll that Guoguo invoked was only for summoning Fire Crane as a playmate.
Why you were intertwined is sothing I believe you’re more aware of than I am.
The radiant power of the War Song to summon magical beasts requires mutual consent.
Why didn’t you oppose it just now?
Moreover, the soul contract is a noble one, it’s an indelible mark etched in the heart and soul, indicating a companion who’ll stick with you through thick and thin.
It’s not the master-servant relationship you’re imagining.
In Beamon’s history, many noble shamans have died protecting their magical beasts.
You’ve committed a huge subjective error in the first place!
Besides, Guoguo isn’t my magical beast.
What gives the right to command it to do things it doesn’t want to?” Liu Zhenhan smirked.
“My Erald Dream only allowed to tap into the Fire Crane’s magical elental power whilst connecting with its mind – it doesn’t offer any insight into its inner world.
How could I object?” The Fairy Dragon beca a little annoyed: “Don’t fob off with boring lies!
Damned Beamon!
You and Frosty Pichu share the sa dragon breath resonance, a rare phenonon of life affinity, and you dare to say you can’t command it?
Looks like you don’t want to know about the mine!”
“Life affinity?” Liu Zhenhan rolled his eyes.
Clearly, he’d never heard this term before.
“In the Dragon Clan, the deepest expression of parental love towards their children is through life affinity.
No external influence could possibly affect the bond that’s been ford between you two.
You’re now fated to never abandon each other in this life or the next.” The Fairy Dragon explained.
“I’m not part of the Dragon Clan, so how could I have such…
Obischillaci!
Don’t tell this is a consequence of having eaten the dragon egg, afflicted by the Dragon Lord’s curse!?” Liu Zhenhan jumped in shock.
The surrounding people began to sweat in anticipation.
Many didn’t realize that their overlord had eaten a dragon egg and had been cursed as well.
Cui Beixi’s face turned especially ugly, while Helen stopped making eye contact with her ntor and quickly lowered her gaze.
“A curse?
What curse?
It’s just a show of love passed down through the Dragon bloodline!
Stop talking nonsense.
If you won’t agree to my request, then just kill .
Better to die than to lose freedom.” The Fairy Dragon said sternly.
“So, my doting over Guoguo is because of a curse, not because I genuinely love it?” Liu Zhenhan blinked dumbly: “Nonsense!”
“Who among the shamans would ever consider an imp of destruction as their child?” The Fairy Dragon scornfully retorted, striking back at the proud overlord of Piegel with facts.
“Well, I did consider it as my child, so what?” Liu Zhenhan picked up Guoguo, pinching its cute little rosy cheeks: “It’s up to it whether it wants to stay or to leave, I won’t force it.”
“Is it willing to release the contract then?” The Fairy Dragon’s voice trembled slightly.
Guoguo nodded its head, its eyes squinting into little slits as it nestled into Liu Zhenhan’s arms.
“Then why do I still feel the imprint of the contract deep in my heart?
Why can’t it be dissolved even after I agreed?” The Fairy Dragon tried hard to maintain her composure, yet her voice had risen an octave.
“What’s the rush?
We can release it after you tell us the mine’s secret.” Liu’s eyes twinkled with an unnoticeable mischief.
Are you trying to play ?
You’re just too innocent.
Guoguo raised its head, nodding vigorously.
It pulled out a fig from its pouch and took a big bite, leaving two visible tooth marks.
“Actually, the mine’s secret could be quite beneficial to you Beamon.
By using it to trade for my freedom, you will be the one getting the bigger end of the deal.” The Fairy Dragon watched Guoguo closely for a while before finally feeling reassured.
“Deception” was definitely not an high-level wisdom that such a low-level magical creature could understand.
“We’ve been waiting for your story for half a day now.” Cui Beixi said impatiently.
“Why doesn’t red soil grow plants?
Mainly, because the red soil contains a rich quantity of tal elents – a quantity so large that even hardy weeds cannot grow, their delicate fibres simply unable to bear such levels of tal elents.
This is the greatest mine in the barren lands.” The Fairy Dragon elaborated.
“Is that supposed to be a mine?” The Scepter Shaman and the attentive Bimon Militian all felt a wave of disappointnt.
Isn’t there tal in every piece of soil?
Even the air is filled with different elental components, otherwise, what would drive magic and war songs?
Damn!
Isn’t it just iron and copper oxides?
Liu Zhenhan has made bricks out of red soil in the manufacturing team before.
Red ones need to be fired for three days, while green ones need ten days.
This, he knew.
If this could be refined into a mine, then what was the point of all that iron and steel slting to surpass Arica and England in the past!
