Dark Forest [3]

They formed their contract and after that, she came out from his spiritual consciousness.

After forming the contract even Azure dragon was awake and no longer affected by the purple mist.

Azure dragon praised his master for having so many mysterious things on her.

"Master I am called as Meng Zhang. One of the four protecting holy beast at your service." He immediately flattered her.

"Hmm, you are a dragon. Where is your lair and treasures you have piled up till now? I want to see." Long Lei asked him straightforwardly.

Meng Zhang was surprised at her question but he still answered her as now she was his master.

"I am guardian beast protecting the dragon flower so I don't have a lair. Besides I can transform into a human form so I don't need a lair. As for the treasure, I don't have any. This flower and that soul flute in the pond is the thing that I can allow you to take."

"What? How could that be? You are such a stinky dragon. I am at loss here. You can't fight this man and you don't have money either." Long Lei sulked.

"Did I take a free pet that is going to leech on me for free and not a beast that is supposed to give me power and protect me? This is so unfortunate."

The Azure Dragon was shocked to see this shameless side of Long Lei. He is a proud beast and no one has ever behaved like this in front of him. Every human has given him importance until now.

Azure Dragon was kind of sad because of this sudden development.

"Master this soul flute is one of the most amazing things in this Longduan continent and you got this without any effort."

"Oh! You mean this plain flute. Is this yours?" Long Lei asked him while playing with the flute.

"No, it's not. However, it belonged to a very powerful cultivator of Holy Kunlun Sect that's why his lordship was here to take this." Azure dragon proudly informed her.

"His Lordship? Who is he? Hmm, tell me. I thought you and he are enemies. But looks like you are his subordinate." Long Lei questioned.

The azure dragon was flustered because of this question because it is not supposed to be disclosed. "No, it's not like this. He is just a powerful cultivator and I respect him too much. So, I decided to give him his due respect."

Azure dragon tried to hide his mistake by making up a new history but Long Lei was still suspicious of all this because she has read so many novels and knows that this dragon is clearly creating some bluffing stories.

"Are you sure? I mean all this because you can't defeat him. Shouldn't you hate him just like a proud beast?" Long Lei questioned him again. "What respect are you talking about? He is still unconsciousness because of this purple mist. I am more powerful than him but you were being so arrogant before."

"Ahh! It's not like this. You are mistaken." The Azure dragon tried explaining her.

"Don't try to fool me here because I know you are lying. So tell me what is your relationship with this masked man? This time I want the truth." Long Lei threatened.

"I can't tell you but he is kind of superior power to me so I have to refer him like this and nothing much. I swear I am not lying now." He promised.

"Fine, let's help him and know more about this soul flute okay."

"No, stop. If you will wake him up then he will not allow you to take this soul flute. It is important to him otherwise he will not be able to contact Nangong Bai or something like that because I don't remember his name."

Azure Dragon informed her about the consequences of waking this sovereign of the dark realm. If this sovereign is awake then forget about leaving this place with soul flute his new master wouldn't even be alive after insulting him a few moments ago. It is best to move out from here before anything happens.

"Why does he want to contact this Nangong person? Do you know the reason? You said he is your superior but aren't you a beast then how is he your superior unless he is also a mythological beast who is able to transform himself into a human." Long Lei concluded but was still confused that why a beast will try to find information about her godfather like an obsessed fool. Perhaps, he is gay and he wants to propose godfather by gifting this shitty flute.

What a gross taste?

He is also hiding his face. Maybe he is very ugly.

With all these negative traits how is he supposed to get her godfather's love is beyond her imagination.

Wait, I was following that expert and it leads me to here after following his trail. Are these two people actually one?

That expert was also searching for godfather and this dragon is saying that this masked man is also here for soul flute so that he can contact godfather. Hmm, it must be.

"Hey! Dragon, tell me his name at least."

Meng Zhang is conflicted about whether to tell her or not.

"Come on tell me. It won't harm him and neither of us just because of a name right." She convinced him.

"His name is… Kong…umm… Nangong Ah Jin."
