987. After Ascending (1)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Cang Qian, in high spirits, stepped on the rainbow bridge, soaring up.
After a long time, a wave of full-bodied star source force blew in the face, Cang Qian could not help feeling so thrilled.
It seems I am arriving in the immortal world!
A long-cherished wish finally came true, Cang Qian could not help feeling swayed by considerations of gain and loss.
“Look! See what I found! A crow! A crowed has ascended to our world! The requirements for ascending have really downgraded a lot. Any cat or dog could make it.” Some teasing mumbling sound came into Cang Qian’s ears.
Cang Qian saw a red dragon hundreds of meters long, who was also staring at him with great interest.
Cang Qian spread his wings and stared at the dragon fiercely.
“A crow? You’re a crow!” Cang Qian gave a roar of anger and spat a mouthful of fire at the dragon.
The giant dragon didn’t dodge or what, just calmly took the attack of Cang Qian.
“Hmm? The smell of phoenix flames? Actually you are not a crow, but a phoenix, a scorched black phoenix, really ugly.” The giant dragon coiled his body, looking up and down at Cang Qian.
“You’re scorched!” Cang Qian maliciously stared at the giant dragon, again spray out a large mouthful of phoenix flames.
The giant dragon just let Cang Qian spray fire on him, unscathed, the giant dragon face did not have the slightest painful expression.
After spraying fire at him for long, instead of hurting the other side a bit, he himself got exhausted and was panting heavily now.
Seeing that Cang Qian stopped, the giant dragon gave a puff onto Cang Qian, while the latter immediately got thrown away and hit on the hill aside, feeling like his internals all got displaced, so painful that he nearly pa.s.sed out.
The giant dragon reached out his claws and poked Cang Qian’s body, muttering, “So it’s not scorched, you were born this dark.”
Cang Qian was full of resentment to look at the giant dragon, while the giant dragon said indifferently, “Little crow, you were abandoned in the lower realm, right?”
Cang Qian jumped up as if he had blown his hair, “You are abandoned! You’re abandoned!”
The giant dragon’s face changed slightly, then revealed a ferocious expression at Cang Qian, “I said you were abandoned and you don’t believe me. All those years, the star source force in the few realms had becoming thinner and thinner, it was very difficult to ascend. The phoenix race has few offspring, so they specially set a few more rainbow bridges to receive those phoenixes in the lower world. And you were the abandoned one, so they didn’t pick you up.”
Cang Qian looked at the giant dragon with anger, “You know what? I was just forgotten by accident, not abandoned.”
“Oh, you are not abandoned, then are you going to the phoenix race now? The old f.a.ggots of the phoenix race hate color black most, they regard it as being ominous, if you go over now, perhaps, they will draw out all your blood and cook you to eat.” The giant dragon was full of schadenfreude.
Cang Qian looked at the giant dragon furiously, “What do you really want?”
The giant dragon blinked his huge eyes and said thoughtfully, “I want to cook you to eat.”
As Cang Qian heard the giant dragon’s words, for a moment he felt like being stricken by five thunders together. And he suddenly remembered a lot of things, such as Lou Yu said, the immortal world may not be a paradise, and Zheng Xuan said it might be a purgatory, and Mo Fei said it may not be easy to make a living here, and Mo Yi said, after going here, he might want to go back…
All of them were right, but he was wrong. What cruel truth!
The giant dragon looked at Cang Qian’s nervous appearance, laughed, but to Cang Qian, his laugh was like roaring.
“I don’t taste good, you know.” Cang Qian s.h.i.+vered.
He had finally ascended after his strenuous effort of tens of thousands of years, and now was going to be some food in someone else’s mouth? As Cang Qian thought of here, he couldn’t help feeling sad.
The giant dragon looked at Cang Qian’s pale face and couldn’t help but feel amused, “You don’t taste good? I also think so. You are skinny, apparently you don’t have much flesh.”
Cang Qian blinked nervously and said, “So, you won’t eat me?”
The giant dragon thought for a moment and said, “I won’t eat you, but you need to cook for me.”
Cang Qian, “…”
The giant dragon looked at Cang Qian’s embarra.s.sed expression and said, “Aren’t you happy? It should be your pleasure to cook for me.”
Cang Qian smiled awkwardly. Thinking that one has bow his head when under the aeves, he explained, “It’s not that I don’t like it, but that I can’t…”
The giant dragon gave him a disdainful look, “You don’t know how to cook? No way! You look not young. You are so weak, and are so ignorant and incompetent.”
Cang Qian, “…” d.a.m.n it! Things change!
