Chapter 564 Contractual Subjugation
With a single sword strike, a shrill scream rang out, and the red dragon's face contorted in anger.
However, the power draining from his body made him realize what would happen if he resisted.
"Spare us, we'll never dare to do it again..."
The red dragon ninja said in pain.
"I'll spare you. When you were causing trouble, did you never think that someone would come to take you down?"
Ye Ru sneered and said.
"It's all our fault, we were arrogant and conceited. If you can forgive us, we will be loyal to you and never have any other thoughts..."
The azure dragon couldn't help but speak up as well.
He knew that his former glory was gone and he could only live a life of ignominy, hoping to find another opportunity to leave this place later.
"Spare you? You have harmed so many of my human comrades, and you think you can wipe the slate clean with just a word? Do you think that's easy? Come with me to the Dragon-Slaying Platform."
Zhang Dong stepped forward and loudly reprimanded him.
"The Dragon-Slaying Platform?"
These three words made the faces of the two dragons turn pale instantly.
This Dragon-Slaying Platform was given to the human race of the Ten Kingdoms by the Dragon Clan. It is blessed by the dragon power of the Four Sea Dragon Kings. Once you are slain by this Dragon-Slaying Platform, you will be instantly reduced to ashes and never be reborn.
Generally speaking, the Dragon-Slaying Platform is only used to slay dragons that have committed heinous crimes.
"No! If you can release us, we are willing to form a soul contract and will never betray you for all eternity."
Upon hearing this, the red dragon's legs went weak, and it hurriedly replied.
Seeing that the other party was intimidated by their words, Ye Ru and Zhang Dong exchanged a glance.
If you can get them to be your bodyguards, that's better than killing them.
Moreover, it involves forging a soul contract; if the other party betrays, one can kill them with a mere thought.
"If you want to atone for your crimes through meritorious service, that's not impossible. But I'd like to know what abilities you possess that would allow you to reach the level of a great Confucian scholar?"
Ye Ru frowned and asked.
"Um……"
The red dragon looked pained, spat out a dragon pearl, and then pointed at it, saying:
"It is all thanks to it that I was able to reach the level of a great Confucian scholar. As long as you keep this dragon pearl by your side, it will absorb the talent between heaven and earth at all times. Moreover, when you are reading, it will help you extract the wonderful passages in the book, and then turn them into thoughts and feed them into your mind."
"Xiaoqing and I read books every day. In addition, we have the blood of the dragon clan, which makes our learning twice as effective. That's why we have reached the level of great scholars."
These words aroused curiosity among Ye Ru and the others. The former picked up the Dragon Ball, examined it, and found that he had indeed become sensitive to the surrounding energy.
"I have said everything I need to say. Please, gentlemen, spare my life."
The red dragon's power was draining away faster and faster, and its cultivation was gradually declining.
"Alright, let's make a pact then. If you break your oath, may you be struck by lightning, and I will protect you."
Ye Ru nodded and took the lead in swearing an oath, which was then echoed by the two dragons.
As soon as he finished speaking, a circular light appeared between the three of them, and then suddenly disappeared back into their bodies.
At the same time, Ye Ru felt that something had appeared in his mind.
This thing is probably the weakness of these two dragons.
Once they touch this thing, the two dragons will immediately turn to ashes.
"Now that we've dealt with you, we need to go back and report. Come with me to Haicheng to apologize, and then I'll take you to the capital."
Ye Ru patted Xiao Qing and Xiao Hong on the head, thinking that Xiao Bai had friends to play with.
After thawing the ice on the lake, Ye Ru and his group returned to Haicheng.
When the people of Haicheng saw Xiaohong and Xiaoqing, they turned pale with fright and tried to run back to their homes.
This scene left Ye Ru speechless, and he couldn't help but loudly explain:
"We have tamed them both, so please rest assured that we will not harm you again."
"You defeated these two dragons? And you even tamed them?"
At the city lord's mansion, the city lord of Haicheng stared wide-eyed in disbelief, especially when he heard that there were two dragons in the seabed, which made his face turn pale with fright.
It's not entirely his fault. After all, those two dragons were incredibly powerful. One of them alone was enough to seriously injure him. If a second one had appeared then, he might not even be alive now.
"It's all right now. I've tamed these two dragons, so I'll take them with me."
Ye Ru said with a smile, showing no pride whatsoever because of the other party's reaction.
After all, he didn't subdue it alone.
"Well, that's good. Now that these two have been subdued, we can rest assured. But thank you all very much. How about this, I'll host a banquet today, and you can leave tomorrow."
The city lord of Haicheng looked at Ye Ru and said gratefully.
They helped them live and work in peace and contentment in Haicheng, so it's only right to reward them.
"No need, we're in a hurry, otherwise we won't be able to get back to the capital to report back and we'll be finished."
Zhang Dong and the others shook their heads and said.
"I have already sent someone to the capital to inform them, so don't worry."
The city lord of Haicheng laughed, and seeing how enthusiastic the city lord was, Ye Ru and the others reluctantly agreed.
That evening, the entire city lord's mansion was brightly lit and decorated. Many people were busy running around, but they all had smiles on their faces, as if someone had helped them solve some major problem.
Meanwhile, in the city lord's garden, a dozen or so people were drinking and chatting. Having dealt with the dragon, they looked more at ease.
The two dragons went back to the bottom of the lake to pack up their belongings.
"Ye Anshou, was the poem you wrote during the day an impromptu composition?"
Halfway through the drink, Zhang Dong looked at Ye Ru and asked.
"Yes, Ye Anshou, this poem is rich and broad in content, colorful and romantic, majestic and powerful, and has a distinct and unique artistic conception. It can truly be called the masterpiece of frontier poetry. Although you only wrote about the coldness of this poem, it is still a rare masterpiece."
Zhang Zhi nodded, a look of admiration appearing on his face.
The six lines beginning with "Suddenly" are imbued with a unique and unrestrained spirit, instantly uplifting the reader. One should recite them daily, striving to emulate their essence. The line beginning with "vast sea" provides a breath of fresh air, leading to "returning traveler," and the entire poem flows with a sweeping, majestic grandeur, evoking profound emotions in the reader—truly a rare masterpiece.
Long Hai nodded, his face showing more appreciation, and he admired Ye Ru's writing ability even more.
"Is this really true? Why don't you write down this poem so that we can all take a look?"
The city lord of Haicheng was taken aback, then urged Ye Ru to speak.
"In that case, I will respectfully obey your command."
Nodding, Ye Ru took out paper and pen and began to write...
