In Pu Ban City, near the Town Hall of Emperor Shun, in an old pine forest, which had twisted tree trunks that looked like countless serpents, a lone thatched cottage stood crookedly beside a pond that was less than an acre in radius, dark-green and filled with duckweeds.
The woods, the cottage and the pond had all been giving off an indescribable sense of ancientness. Even the old toad lying on a water lily in the middle of the pond looked old and tired. Occasionally, the old toad would roll its grey and white eyes, giving a weird sense of 'I'm tired of living'.
Candle Dragon Gui squatted in front of the cottage, with the dark-green pond water half a foot away from him.
He lowered his head, looking at a small black snake, which had been lazily paddling in the water under a few pieces of duckweeds.
The black snake was oddly shaped, with a fist-sized head on its chopstick-sized body. At first glance, the snake's head looked similar to that of a flood dragon, and under its belly were four tiny claws. If it weren't for the fact that its body was out of proportion, it would truly look like a black flood dragon.
The pair of eyes of the black snake were burning with a green light. His eyeballs didn't have tangible bodies, instead, they were just a pair of green fireballs. The green light shone through the dark-green pond water, giving an indescribably deep and weird feeling.
Occasionally, when this black snake closed its eyes, the light in the old pine forest, which was covered in heavy snowflakes, would suddenly dim down. It was daytime outside, but the pine forest seemed to have fallen into the dusk, as all the light disappeared along with the black snake's eyes.
When the twelve Fire God warrior commanders and three-thousand and six-hundred elite Fire God warriors, who were sent out by Zhu Rong, flashed across the sky, Candle Dragon Gui, who had been in a daze, abruptly stood up, raised his head and looked at those people.
"Eh? What an imposing manner! What is this old fire devil trying to do? " Two spheres of green fiery light spurted out from Candle Dragon Gui's eyes, which were exactly the same as the fiery light in the black snake's eye sockets. Countless twisted spell symbols floated and rotated in the green light. All those spell symbols were as dark as ink, seeming to devour all the light in the world.
Turning around his palm, a fresh turtle shell appeared in Candle Dragon Gui's hand.
The black snake reached its head out of the water, opened its mouth and let out a stream of green flame towards Candle Dragon Gui. Candle Dragon Gui put the turtle shell on the green flame and burned it for a while. Along with a series of cracking noise, a few cracks appeared on the turtle shell.
Candle Dragon Gui's fingers gently stroked across the crack. Along with a shrill scream that came from an unknown source, wisps of green smoke slowly rose from where Candle Dragon Gui's fingertip touched the turtle shell. His body trembled a little as he stuffed the tortoiseshell into his sleeves. Then, he raised his head and looked at the Fire God Army that was already far away in the sky. There were only a few faintly discernible sparks left. Then, he smiled mysteriously.
"Yo, yo, yo, a few days ago, you said that Ji Hao, that little guy, is not good enough for your daughter, and now you're rushing to send someone over? Did he really take Ji Hao as his son-in-law? Isn't that right? To be able to form a relationship with that person, hehe! "
Candle Dragon Gui grinned so brightly that even the wrinkles on his face loosened one after another, "It's just that that little girl of yours hasn't grown up yet, and she has that kind of personality … Clicking his tongue, speaking of being the mistress of a family … Earl Yao is an earl with millions of territories after all, and the mistress of a family should be dignified, gentle, and can take care of internal affairs for Earl Yao. Nothing can be better than that."
Candle Dragon Gui shrugged, slightly coughed for a few times, then lowered his head, smiled mildly to the little black snake and said, "Old buddy, Earl Yao's mistress is like a mountain monkey, carrying a giant hammer all day long and smashing anyone she doesn't like. Don't you think that's proper?"
The little black snake blinked his eyes for a while, then a hoarse and cold voice slowly came out from his body, "I like energetic, strong women. Do you have a problem with my words or what?"
Candle Dragon Gui's smiling face suddenly froze. He stared at the little black snake for quite a while, then finally yelled out in anger, "Old bastard, you deserve to have three of your main tendons broken by the Dragon Emperor's daughter for seducing her! For the rest of your life, you can just drool for that female dragon! "
The little black snake let out a series of cold and weird laughter, then said with a slightly dirty and lascivious tone, "Old bastard, I like this kind of woman, what can you do to me? That old woman … Sooner or later, I will make her lay eggs for me and hatch my babies! "
Candle Dragon Gui snorted coldly, then turned around and walked back into the cottage.
From the outside, Candle Dragon Gui's cottage was only three meters squared, and could only contain three to five people at most. However, after walking into the cottage, one would find that the inside of the cottage was entirely different. Inside the cottage was a magnificent hall that was entirely forged from black gold, with countless bright pearls floating in the air, transforming into a slowly rotating picture of stars in the sky.
A dense black fog pervaded the hall, and in the hall that one couldn't see the end of with a single glance, there were numerous figures standing in the black fog. Every single figure emitted an evil and strange aura, and they emitted a powerful Wizard Energy that could suffocate one.
Candle Dragon Gui walked to the innermost area of the hall, sat down on a purely black armchair, which had nine dragons coiling around it, while gasping quickly for air.
He grabbed a tablet placed on the golden platform in front of the armchair and heavily slapped on the golden platform.
Buzz! Countless silhouettes of people standing in the hall simultaneously kneeled down on one knee, silently kowtowing to Candle Dragon Gui. They raised their heads one after another, with green flames sparkling in their eyes, silently staring at Candle Dragon Gui.
"Candle Dragon Huo, Candle Dragon Yan, Candle Dragon Yan, Candle Dragon Yi, listen to my order. You lead our warriors to Yao Mountain, and from now on, you will follow Shaosi's orders. You, from your skin to your bones, from your blood to your flesh, from every single hair of yours, all armors worn by you, all weapons carried by you, even your families and your descendants, generation after generation, you will all be Shaosi's private warriors. "
Four tall and sturdy warriors, who were nearly six meters tall and were even bigger than Jia Clan big warriors, responded loudly, then heavily kneeled on the ground and kowtowed to Candle Dragon Gui for three times.
"By the way, take this Candle Dragon Altar of mine to her. Just tell her that this is the dowry I prepared for Shaosi, a great treasure that I will give to her future husband's family. " Candle Dragon Gui waved his hand and a small altar, which was built from black and white dragon bones and was wrapped in dense mist, flew out and was caught by a warrior.
After ten minutes, Candle Dragon Huo and his four Divine Magi guards, who had been serving Candle Dragon Gui for thousands of years, led sixteen Magus Kings and eight-thousand elite Senior Magi from Candle Dragon Clan, along with over three-hundred thousand clansmen and their families, trod on a dark cloud and flew towards the northeast in a formidable array.
In front of the Town Hall, Zhu Rong, who had been smilingly chatting with a human minister, suddenly had his pretty face turn dark. He angrily raised his head and glanced at the dark cloud.
"Old people who don't die are all thieves … old things!" Zhu Rong abruptly pointed at the direction of the dark cloud and cursed.
In the pine forest, Candle Dragon Gui squatted by the pond again, silently looking at that small black snake.
A while later, he abruptly chuckled and said,
"Do you really think that I don't know anything because I'm going to die soon? Hehe, when I saw that sword formation, I knew that Ji Hao, this kid, was so lucky. "
Clicking his tongue, Zhu Rong said, "Old buddy, marrying your own disciple to someone else … Am I a bit shameless?"
The small black snake reached his head out, looked at Candle Dragon Gui sincerely and said,
"To be honest, something like 'face', what's the use of it?"
"As long as there are benefits, it's fine. For benefits, you can be shameless. Who cares about that kind of thing?"
