  After awakening, the Dragon Slaying Chapter fell into silence, refusing to respond to Gao Peng. Even when Gao Peng wanted to make it his Familiar, there was little reaction; it just rejected the Blood Contract.

  From the looks of it, it seemed to have the gall to start a war of attrition with Gao Peng.

  Back then, Gao Peng paid it no mind. Although the Dragon Slaying Chapter had a pretty good attribute and a rather decent level, Gao Peng already had Familiars with a grade equal to or even better than it, hence he did not think much of it.

  “Gao Peng, that white book wants to speak to you,” said Silly as it drifted slowly towards Gao Peng with a bottle of juice.

  With that, Silly drifted slowly away again.

  Gao Peng was at home, just preparing for the next big thing that could happen. Hearing Silly’s message, he was stunned for a moment. He then put on a coat, packed his things and left the house.

  Gao Peng had been wondering at that time, if he had never taken away the Dragon Slaying Chapter and the Goddess Stone in the first place, would the Blackwater Nightmare Dragon have made its appearance?

  Back then, Gao Peng did not think too much. But now, this question was like a heavy stone in his heart.

  In the specially constructed underground confinement room, Gao Peng met up with the Dragon Slaying Chapter.

  The Dragon Slaying Chapter was quietly floating in mid-air, releasing its psychic waves. “I have sensed the aura of that black dragon. That black dragon is an evil dragon, it’s best that you avoid contact with it.”


  Gao Peng stared at it. “I have something to ask you. Were you guys at the Wu Gorge

  The Dragon Slaying Chapter seemed puzzled. It’s pages flipped open, and then closed again. “You want to face that black dragon? Give it up. With your current strength it’s not possible. The black dragon can fly, there’s no way that giant crab of yours can kill it. If you are unable to kill the black dragon, it will go eat people.”


  “No, I just want to know, if I had never taken you two from the Wu Gorge, would the black dragon appear?” Gao Peng’s voice shook as he spoke. He only managed to steady his voice again after two deep breaths.

  The Dragon Slaying Chapter seemed to have understood something and fell silent for a moment. “The black dragon had actually long been showing signs of awakening. Back then, that man had only managed to severely inure that black dragon and not kill it. Even if I had not been taken away it would still have awoken. It was just a matter of time.”


  “Back then, while dealing with the black dragon, I was only able to provide some assistance. The one that had dealt a crippling blow to the black dragon was another Familiar, so if you are asking me to kill the black dragon, you’re getting ahead of yourself.” The Dragon Slaying Chapter continued calmly, “Nonetheless, I still advise you to stay away from that black dragon. Back in our time, it ate a lot of people and even brought about a huge flood. It is truly an infamous beast.”


  “It’s dead.”


  Dragon Slaying Chapter, “???”


  “It’s been killed by my Familiars, its body is just outside.”


  The Dragon Slaying Chapter began to flip its pages. From the front cover all the way to the back, and then back to the front again.

  “You guys didn’t manage to kill the black dragon back then? Was it really that strong?”


  Hearing Gao Peng’s doubtful tone, the Dragon Slaying Chapter snapped back, “We could kill it. How could we not? We even had its head chopped of, all we had to do was extinguish its soul to kill it. It was just that that man wanted to seal it under the mountain and use it to repress the fortune of the nation [1], that was why it was allowed to cling on to its life for so long.”


  Afterwards, the Dragon Slaying Chapter could not hold back its curiosity and asked, “How did you actually manage to kill it?”


  Gao Peng suddenly spoke in a serious tone. “Have you eaten cake? Just use a spoon, and with a gentle scoop, dig out the soul that’s in its brain.”


  The Dragon Slaying Chapter shuddered. Although it had never heard of ‘cake’, it believed that it could not be anything good.

  “Do you want to be my Familiar?” Gao Peng offered.

  After knowing that Gao Peng had killed the black dragon, the Dragon Slaying Chapter’s attitude had changed, but it still did not immediately accept Gao Peng’s invitation. “I will need to consider first.”


  “The saddest thing in the world is having a full set of dragon slaying skills but not a single dragon in the world for you to slay,” Gao Peng said enticingly.

  “But…… I’ve heard that you like to trick monsters,” said the Dragon Slaying Chapter, still doubtful.

  Gao Peng stared back in disbelief, “When did I trick any monster?”


  The Dragon Slaying Chapter glowed with a white light. “I heard that you once promised a monster to make it tall…… but it probably ended up becoming even shorter……”


  Gao Peng, “???”


  Gao Peng was shocked, which darned individual had let this spread?

  But Gao Peng was indeed at fault in this matter. He sheepishly coughed and then replied, “That was an accident, I did not expect it to grow shorter after evolving…… but it did become stronger after that! It evolved to an even stronger Familiar did it not? If I gave you the option of promoting to Mythic Grade, but the price was growing 10cm shorter, would you do it?”
