Chapter 35

After eating the flesh and drinking the blood, they would also become dragon spirits. Some demon spirits were just one opportunity away from leaping through the dragon gate!

However, the great crocodile spirit blocked their path, relying on its strong physique to bite to death many of the leading small demons. But how could it withstand this large group of pond demons!

Before long, the great crocodile spirit's body was covered with many bite marks. Its blood mixed with the dragon's blood, yet the stubborn great crocodile spirit did not take a single step back. It used its crocodile horn to pierce through a century-old demon knife fish, then crushed a frog spirit with its claw, and subsequently, like a fierce beast, it knocked away all the demons that tried to climb onto the dragon's body!

"Roar!!!!!!!!!"

The ferocity of Dahuaya temporarily intimidated the small demons, but there were still some beings of the same level as the violent catfish appearing near the pond, ready to act, growling continuously.

The roar filled the air, and the dying Zhanchuan Dragon opened its heavy eyes.

It saw a large black crocodile stained with blood, and the densely packed water demons in the pond...

Zhanchuan Dragon was about to reach the end of its life, but it never expected to see a familiar small crocodile spirit in its dying moments.

It was still so weak, having not even crossed the dragon gate.

Yet, until now, it had not let any demon approach itself.

"Whoo~~~" Zhanchuan Dragon weakly called out, signaling Dahuaya to leave, knowing it would soon be torn apart by these demons.

"Roar Roar Roar!!!!!!!!!"

Dahuaya roared fiercely, refusing to budge.

It pounced on a century-old fang fish again, tearing it to pieces with its claws and black teeth. Fresh blood once again stained the pond, which had just been diluted by the waterfall, but it also included the crocodile blood flowing from Dahuaya's back.

"Roar Roar!!!!!!!"

Dahuaya did not yield.

In its roars, it warned all the water demons in the pond, as if telling Zhanchuan Dragon: it could not die, and the only one in the world who could defeat it was itself!

Yes, in Dahuaya's small world, Zhanchuan Dragon was the strongest creature.

Dahuaya's goal was to surpass this dragon.

Perhaps seeing Zhanchuan Dragon in such a state was also a shock to Dahuaya.

Could a dragon be defeated?

This made Dahuaya realize that there were even stronger beings in the world, and that the world was much broader than what it had seen...

But so what!

It remembered Zhanchuan Dragon's strength and the gentleness when it caught it from the waterfall.

Strength did not have to be like the wolf spirits in the Dragon Storage Hall, bullying the weak.

It could also be gentle.

...

Dragon Taming Academy

In the healing pavilion, the old man from the Dragon Storage Hall sat with a serious expression.

"What happened?" The old man recognized Zhuming and Duan Lan.

"Teacher Duan Lan was attacked in the spirit domain, her soul was injured, and she is unconscious," Zhuming informed the old man.

"Not just unconscious, she would have died if we were any slower. Xiao Li, help her up," the old man said to the woman beside him.

The woman named Xiao Li responded, clearly an expert in healing, and her movements were very skilled.

"Zhuming, Zhuming!"

Just as Zhuming was anxious, Honghao's loud voice came from outside the door.

"This is not your concern. We will do our best to save her. I will inform the principal about what you said, but you should go to the Li Family Imperial Academy to state all the facts. This is a serious matter," the old man from the Dragon Storage Hall said.

Zhuming nodded and quickly left the healing pavilion, knowing he could not help here.

As soon as he stepped out, Honghao ran over, shouting, "A girl said your big crocodile dragon is being attacked by a group of demons under the waterfall. Hurry up and go."

Zhuming's face changed, and he rushed towards the waterfall.

"Yuuuuu~~~"

Bai Qi glided down from the top of the pavilion, its white wings spread, looking noble and sacred.

Grasping the claws of the Ice Chen White Dragon that flew over his head, Zhuming and the white dragon glided into the air together...

Honghao stood there, staring in amazement at the dragon and the person who left so spectacularly.

How could the Ice Chen White Dragon, which was not even a month old, already be so extraordinary, and Zhuming seemed like a mysterious and powerful figure!

...

Frost suddenly descended, and clean feathers fell onto the pond, like a sudden holy snow, even the splashing water mist turned into frost.

Descending from the waterfall, Zhuming landed in front of Zhanchuan Dragon and Dahuaya. The area was littered with the bodies of small demons, some with their throats torn, others torn to pieces, and some crushed to death...

The bodies almost covered the entire pond, making the pond look as if it were painted red, a shocking sight!

In the center of the pond, on a large rock, lay a blue dragon, barely alive.

Next to the blue dragon, a small crocodile dragon, its originally black body now dyed red with both its own and the enemies' blood, lay covered in wounds.

Seeing this, Zhuming felt a surge of sorrow in his throat, and his eyes became blurry.

He walked to the side of the small crocodile dragon, slowly squatting down and hugging the wounded Dahuaya.

"Whoo~~~" The great crocodile spirit, seeing Zhuming, finally let down its guard, like a wounded child clinging to Zhuming.

"Bai Qi, kill them," Zhuming said to Bai Qi.

His eyes scanned the pond, filled with icy anger.

Bai Qi's aura was completely in sync with Zhuming. It slowly floated in the air, towering over all the pond demons, looking down on these greedy and trivial beings!

"Yuuuuu!!!"

A long cry, and Bai Qi's entire body turned into a large mass of ice crystals, covering all its feathers and down, the extreme cold ice crystals shining like a sacred armor, making the originally gentle Ice Chen White Dragon look regal and majestic!

"Yuuuuu!!!"

The ice crystal wings suddenly spread, and a fierce cold swept in all directions.

This freezing breath was incredibly dominant, capable of turning the flowing waterfall into ice, and the demons on the pond's surface, who were fleeing in panic, were already locked in the gaze of death!

"Crack crack~~~~~~~~~"

The surface of the pond froze, thick like rock. The demons tried to dive into the depths of the pond, but their escape route was already seen through by the Ice Chen White Dragon.

"Crack crack~~~~~~~~~"

Standing on the ice, the small demons were frozen stiff, quickly losing the strength to escape, and their bodies slowly adhered to the thick ice beneath them.

First, their skin turned to frost, then their flesh and bones turned to ice, and finally, even the blood flowing in their bodies froze completely.

One by one, ice sculptures appeared on the pond, and Bai Qi, showing its killing intent, did not let any of the demons involved in the attack escape. They lost all signs of life, frozen on the ice surface.

"Whooooo!!!"

The wind whipped heavily over the frozen waterfall and pond, and over the frozen pond demons.

Despite being made of flesh and bone, they began to disintegrate in the wind, turning into particles of frost dust, like white sand.

"Little Dahuaya, you protected Zhanchuan Dragon, and it didn't die..."

Zhanchuan Dragon was still alive!

It seemed to have been thrown into the river and then carried by the fierce current to the waterfall.

Without Dahuaya's desperate protection, Zhanchuan Dragon would have been devoured by the demons.

Zhuming looked at the exhausted Dahuaya, feeling genuine pride.

Well done.

This spirit was not just an ordinary one from the mud!

...

Calling the mentors from the Dragon Taming Academy, they carried Zhanchuan Dragon back. With the teachers who could treat dragon beasts, Zhanchuan Dragon should be out of danger. Hopefully, Teacher Duan Lan would wake up and see that Zhanchuan Dragon was still alive, which would surely bring her great comfort.

After settling Dahuaya, Zhuming knew he had an important task to do.

"Rest well, I'll be back soon." Zhuming held Dahuaya's head and touched his forehead to it, instructing.

"Ooo~~~~~" Dahuaya was obedient, lying in the healing pool, where the pain in its body should have eased.

Zhuming left.

The woman named Xiao Li walked to the healing pool, intending to check Dahuaya's wounds to prevent any toxins from worsening the injuries.

"Hmm? The flesh that was torn open just a moment ago has already grown back..." Xiao Li said, puzzled.

"Ooo~~~~~" Dahuaya roared, indicating it didn't know either.

"Are you a snake, shedding your skin?" Xiao Li frowned, looking at the large pieces of injured skin shedding from Dahuaya in the healing pool.

"Ooo???" Dahuaya turned its head, startled by the skin peeling off its body, and its four claws flailed in the water in panic.

Am I going to die???

Why is my skin not with my body!!!

"Don't panic, don't panic... Big Black Crocodile, oh... how is there light in the blood you're bleeding!" Xiao Li exclaimed in surprise.

"Ooo!!" Dahuaya looked at its wound again, and indeed, the blood was glowing!!

It's over, I'm dead, it can't be cured!!!

"Master, Master, something's wrong, something's wrong!!" Xiao Li ran frantically to the inner room.

The old man glared at the girl irritably.

There were already enough patients today, and he was almost overwhelmed.

"Master, look at that big black crocodile, I'm scared!" Xiao Li said.

The old man had just finished stitching Zhanchuan Dragon's major wound and had not even washed his hands when Xiao Li dragged him to the healing pool.

Glancing at Dahuaya, the old man tapped his female disciple's head with his finger.

"What's the big fuss about, haven't you seen a dragon transformation before?"

"Oh, it's transforming... Oh! This big black crocodile is transforming into a dragon!!!" Xiao Li opened her mouth wide.
