Chapter 557: Chapter 208: “In fact, I won the bet!”_2
“Sure.”
The Black Dragon asked with some confusion, “I have no desire to kill anyone in this world.”
“Then do you think you could never kill again?”
“Kill, yes.”
“How can you kill without any desire to kill? If you have no desire to kill them, why would you kill them? There has to be a reason to kill someone, right?”
“If I need to kill someone, then they must have done something to seek their death. Why do you need a reason to kill? Only seeking death needs a reason.”
“…”
The middle-aged man stood silently with an expressionless face, not trying to defend himself, but just casually waved his hand, and a large amount of fog enveloped the Black Dragon.
In almost the blink of an eye, the Black Dragon fell into unconsciousness.
And above the Black Dragon’s head, there appeared an image engulfed in clouds, where the Black Dragon, now with no conscious memory, was caught in an illusion.
He wanted to see if the Black Dragon’s performance in the illusion would be as he claimed.
…
Inside the illusion.
The Black Dragon was a Human Clan Cultivator, living a happy family life until the age of eighteen, until in his nineteenth year, a group of mountain bandits raided the village where the Black Dragon resided.
They brutally murdered the villagers of the Black Dragon’s village.
They gang-raped his mother to death.
They killed his father in front of the Black Dragon.
And they tortured the Black Dragon for an entire year before he escaped. After he cultivated to great success, he returned and found the gang of mountain bandits.
One sword for each one.
As the Qingfeng sword swept through, blood sprayed across the sky and heads flew.
There were no unnecessary moves.
The Black Dragon killed people with utter calm; there was indeed not a trace of killing intent, giving the impression that he was like someone buying vegetables at the market, casually getting up after the purchase and beheading the vegetable vendor with one swift sword strike.
It was like doing something very ordinary.
Doubtful, the middle-aged man again created various difficulties for the Black Dragon within the illusion. Still, the Black Dragon always sought revenge with no trace of killing intent in his eyes, only sorrow…
…
“How strange…”
The middle-aged man stared blankly at the Black Dragon, who was still unconscious in the spring water.
In this world, there’s only one kind of person born without any revealing any killing intent.
Those who are extremely cold-blooded and ruthless!
Such people, whether killing an enemy or someone unrelated to them, would never display the slightest killing intent; innate emotionless, they are the perfect assassins.
And such assassins can never be controlled.
For an entity that devours its master, there is no psychological burden when dealing with such people.
So when the Black Dragon initially said he wouldn’t reveal any killing intent, the middle-aged man was so dismissive because it was evident that the Black Dragon wasn’t one of those extremely cold-blooded and ruthless people.
If he wasn’t that kind of person, then mastering this skill would require a lot of time and practice, which is not something a Young Dragon could do.
But now—
He discovered that, aside from the extremely cold-blooded and ruthless kind, there’s a second kind of person in this world naturally capable of doing this.
That is, like the Black Dragon.
Indeed, harboring no killing intent towards anyone, even filled with goodwill towards strangers. But if he decided it was time for someone to die, then he would kill.
Yet, during the act of killing, there was no malice in his heart, even to the point where the person about to die would not realize that the passerby brushing past them would strike them down.
Strictly speaking…
It belongs to self-deception.
To completely conceal one’s killing intent is precisely to deceive oneself; it’s just that ordinary people need to train hard to achieve this, whereas the Black Dragon was born with this ability.
Because the Black Dragon has deceived himself deep enough.
Natural assassin material.
“…”
After a long while, the middle-aged man looked at the slowly awakening Black Dragon with a complex expression. Had it been thousands of years since such talents were as common as carps leaping across the river in the Dragon Clan?
But if that were so, why hadn’t anyone visited the Dragon Palace or sought the Dragon Clan’s legacy in tens of thousands of years?
Soon.
The Black Dragon, waking up again at a leisurely pace, raised his head and said in a murmur to the middle-aged man, “I think I had a dream where I was being chased by a lot of women.”
“Hmm.”
The middle-aged man, with a somewhat speechless expression, remained silent. Dragons are naturally lascivious, which is quite normal; in the illusion, he wanted to test the Black Dragon’s nature, but no matter how those sirens tried to seduce him, the Black Dragon had not a single lustful thought.
Theoretically speaking.
Young Dragons are the most lascivious, and to restrain oneself to such an extent had nothing to do with nature; it’s likely he was impotent.
What a pity.
Perhaps this was a case of being granted one talent at the expense of another.
Such a Heavenly Pride, utterly uninterested in the female charm, how would he ever contribute to the Dragon Clan’s legacy in the future.
“Alright.”
Shaking his head and no longer dwelling on it, he spoke with a calm expression, “Congratulations, you have passed the Dragon Clan’s legacy, and for the next month, you need to stay here.”
“I will personally guide you until you break through to Divinity Transformation and can transform into human form.”
“Ah…”
The Black Dragon sounded somewhat unsatisfied; he had been thinking about quickly returning to Dragon Island to show off his Cultivation, but now it would take another month.
“Ah what?”
The middle-aged man said irritably, “What do you take the Dragon Clan for? To inherit all the Dragon Clan’s legacies that suit you, one month is the shortest time. If your ability to understand is a bit weaker, it will take three months.”
“Oh…”
Although somewhat disappointed about not being able to return to Dragon Island quickly, the Black Dragon soon became excited again, his eyes shining as he said, “Senior, how did I perform in the first round, and what Grade of Dragon Clan’s legacy am I?”
The middle-aged man glanced at the Black Dragon in the spring and then, with his hands behind his back, turned and walked away into the distance.
What do you think?
