Chapter 973: Chapter 977: Gentle Dragon Taming Chapter 973: Chapter 977: Gentle Dragon Taming “Aside from Juvenile Spirits transforming into dragons, the vast majority of dragons are resistant to forming contracts with humans. The more superior the bloodline and the more powerful the dragon, the more independent, autonomous, and proud they are…” Zhu Minglang said.
As he was speaking these words, the Yama Dragon in the Spirit Realm suddenly raised its huge head and then gave a loud snort.
You may as well just address directly as Yama Dragon, why beat around the bush?
“That still depends on each dragon’s characteristics. Xuanlong actually needs Dragon Shepherds to help it through its weaker stages. Moreover, Xuanlong has a lifespan of tens of thousands of years, so signing a contract with a Dragon Shepherd isn’t considered a disgrace for them. Ordinary humans live at most a hundred years, True Gods at most five hundred years. Even if they have the intention to rebel, they can simply outlive the Dragon Shepherds without needing to resort to any forceful asures,” Mr. Jinli said.
“So you’re suggesting I ta this Xuanlong by adopting a gentle approach?” Zhu Minglang asked.
“Don’t waste your Dragon Shepherd divine techniques. First, go and show goodwill. Rember, don’t harbor any thoughts of conquest. Just act like a passerby who sees it poisoned and casually offers so herbal juice and detoxification beads, then leave stylishly…” Mr. Jinli said.
“Alright, I’ll take your advice,” Zhu Minglang nodded.
Putting away the Dragon-binding Divine Silkworm Silk, Zhu Minglang took out so recently harvested Washing Heart Grass and tried to head outside.
God Dye Affinity, God Dye Affinity.
Zhu Minglang didn’t even know how to use this divine technique, but sohow, wherever he went, so young dragons would co to him seeking adoption, a situation he had never encountered before, as young dragons were exceptionally expensive.
Smile.
Keep smiling.
This should be especially affable.
Zhu Minglang deliberately made a noise with his footsteps to let this Xuanlong know he had no intention of ambushing it.
Sure enough, as soon as he walked over, the Xuanlong imdiately let out a long snort, and then Zhu Minglang heard it opening its mouth wide, its throat pulsating as it emitted an intimidating growl—a growl like a tiger roaring in the mountains that actually made Zhu Minglang feel as if his body was paralyzed!
A roar that could paralyze muscles?
This must be one of Xuanlong’s abilities.
Zhu Minglang still maintained that refined smile, repeating, God Dye Affinity, God Dye Affinity, please take effect soon!!
The outer Dragon Pupil and inner Dragon Pupil of the Xuanlong were both fixed on Zhu Minglang, causing his body to completely stiffen!
This ti it wasn’t paralysis, but a total stiffness—Zhu Minglang tried to take a few more steps forward, only to find he couldn’t move at all!
Zhu Minglang was shocked; the Xuanlong hadn’t used any ability, so how was he “petrified”?
“You’re poisoned, these herbs, for you…” Fortunately, Zhu Minglang could still speak.
Zhu Minglang held the already ground Washing Heart Grass in his hands and said to the Xuanlong.
The tail of the Xuanlong had unknowingly risen and was even using a nearby large rock for cover. Zhu Minglang even felt that in the next second, he was about to be beheaded…
But the Xuanlong apparently slled the scent of the herbal juice. It began to observe the Washing Heart Grass in Zhu Minglang’s hands, which was clearly more effective than its usual thod of crudely chewing on herbal leaves and stems.
Its eyeballs moved, no longer filled with absolute vigilance and hostility.
It was clearly pondering whether to accept the herbs offered by this stranger, wondering where this human had appeared from.
“It’s working, this temperant skill, God Dye Affinity?” Zhu Minglang arrived sowhat unexpectedly.
Generally speaking, this level of dragon, living in such a primitive, survival-of-the-fittest environnt, would either attack imdiately upon seeing soone suddenly appear beside it, or quickly flee the area.
It was probably because Zhu Minglang indeed emitted an aura that was friendlier to the Xuanlong, which did not imdiately flee or attack but instead stared at Zhu Minglang…
However, the Xuanlong did not release Zhu Minglang from his “petrification.” It took a few steps toward Zhu Minglang and, after confirming that he was not a threat, it stuck out its tongue and quickly swept up the ground herbs that Zhu Minglang was holding in his hand!
The Xuanlong was extrely cautious, after all, it had just been poisoned.
It seed to use its tongue to “check” the herbs, worried that they contained other substances that might harm it.
And indeed, these were the ground Washing Heart Grass, which could quickly detoxify it.
Only then did the Xuanlong start to swallow them.
“How did you get poisoned, so careless, huh? In such a dangerous place, alone as a dragon, if you got poisoned with no one to look after you, that would indeed be quite painful. Luckily, you t . I’ll find you so more of these herbs. I know where to get them. I’ll cure your poison, then I’ll leave,” Zhu Minglang said gently to the Xuanlong.
The Xuanlong continued to stare at Zhu Minglang, its silvery-red eyes sizing him up and displaying a face full of confusion.
“Didn’t understand?” Zhu Minglang scratched his head.
Although this Xuanlong was still in its growth period, shouldn’t it have lived for ten or twenty thousand years? Such beings are generally supposed to understand human language, or at least grasp the gist of it intuitively…
“This, I have a lot, there, there, also there, so much, I can help you… detox!” Zhu Minglang gestured while pointing at the herbs and directions, then tried to express his intentions in a way the Xuanlong might understand.
The Xuanlong seed to understand a bit but it began to back away.
As it moved backward, its steps were already much neater, indicating so relief from the toxin.
“Co back here tomorrow, I’ll give you more ground herbs,” seeing that the Xuanlong was about to leave, Zhu Minglang hurriedly said to it.
The Xuanlong continued backing toward the edge of the cliff. Suddenly, its wings, like jade, spread out and, catching a breeze from below the cliff, the Xuanlong ascended slowly like a kite.
Having reached the top of the ravine, it suddenly flapped its wings with shocking strength. The surrounding turbulent airflow was like a storm about to approach. The next mont, the Xuanlong broke through the forest canopy and disappeared rapidly into the depths of the dense forest.
“Rember to co, I’ll detox you!” Zhu Minglang called out in the direction the dragon had flown.
Watching the Xuanlong disappear, Zhu Minglang still felt a bit regretful.
Should he have used the Dragon-binding Divine Silkworm Silk?
This thod was actually more reliable.
With such a gentle and friendly approach, wasn’t it all dependent on the Xuanlong’s mood?
What if it expelled so of the poison and just moved away, never to be found again? Wouldn’t all his previous efforts have been in vain?
He sighed. The dragon was gone, leaving him with no choice but to wait here tomorrow.
Hopefully, this God Dye Affinity will indeed work!
