Chapter 98: I Won’t Be a Pet, It’s Too Tempting…
The true body of the enlightenment was strong, but it required sufficient comprehension.
The first explosive hammer dog head (爆錘狗頭) Nie Chen had comprehended could greatly increase his comprehension.
“Come on, don’t even think about running away today.”
Nie Chen clenched his fists and started chasing after the few cultivators below.
“Ah, Brother Nie, please don’t!”
The sound of wailing and screaming filled the air as Nie Chen’s fists sent the cultivators flying into the air, only to crash heavily to the ground.

As Nie Chen felt his comprehension increasing, he seemed to have gone completely crazy.
He would punch anyone he met, intentionally holding back a bit so that they could get up and be punched again.
After all, if they were all knocked out, there would be no one left to punch.
What a wonderful feeling!
“Don’t hit me, I’ve already been hit once!”
“Grandpa Nie, please stop, my brain is going to explode!”
“I’m going to have a concussion, and I don’t have medical insurance!”

After an unknown amount of time, the cave entrance was littered with cultivators, all of them wailing in pain.
Nie Chen finally stopped punching.
He could sense that the area was being watched, and the three Transforming Sea Realm experts from the Imperial Court were probably already on their way here.
Time was of the essence, and he couldn’t afford to waste any more time.
Killing Shu Zi’an was just the first step; now, he had to destroy the Dragon Blood Array as quickly as possible.
Nie Chen quickly entered the cave.
The scene inside the cave soon came into view.
A massive Pool of Blood filled with blood-colored patterns was surrounded by two chains that tightly bound a small golden dragon.
Strangely, this small dragon, despite being covered in golden scales and emitting a dragon’s aura, gave off a feeling of being cute and delicate.
Was it because he had been single for too long that he found even a dragon to be charming?
Nie Chen was puzzled.
No, no, no, he wasn’t like those single dogs!
“Come and rescue the dragon king!”
Just then, the small golden dragon suddenly spoke in a human voice.
The voice was as clear as a silver bell, similar to a slightly spoiled little girl.
“Uh, you guys continue, just pretend I’m not here.”
By the Pool of Blood, Minister Cao, who had noticed Nie Chen’s gaze, suddenly became obsequious:
“We’re all on the same side, and I’ve been fed up with the Crown Prince’s constant enlightenment. Brother Nie, you’re doing great! I’ll take Brother Nie as my role model from now on! I hope we can meet again in the future!”
As he finished speaking, he suddenly pulled out a wooden stick from his waist and hit himself on the head.
A loud thud echoed through the air.
“Thud.”
The wooden stick fell to the ground, and Minister Cao also fell to the ground, knocked out by his own hand.
“What a clever guy, he really knows how to adapt…”
Nie Chen was speechless.
If only Shu Zi’an had half of this old minister’s self-awareness, he wouldn’t have ended up in such a state.
“Hey, hurry up and release the dragon king! If you’re fast, the dragon king might consider not eating you!”
Just then, the small golden dragon, still bound by the two chains, looked at Nie Chen with a hint of spoiled menace in her eyes.
Nie Chen, however, didn’t respond to her. He walked towards the Pool of Blood and, after a brief examination, locked his eyes onto a blood jade at the center.
This blood jade was the core of the entire Dragon Blood Array.
Nie Chen’s arm ignited with flames, and as the Pool of Blood retreated from the heat, he grasped the blood jade firmly.
With a sudden burst of strength, the blood jade shattered.
The Dragon Blood Array, which had yet to fully form, collapsed instantly.
The blood in the Pool of Blood contracted, releasing a foul odor.
The powerful spiritual energy within the Dragon Blood Array dissipated completely.
Nie Chen then proceeded to destroy the remaining parts of the array.
With the entire Dragon Blood Array destroyed, Nie Chen turned to leave.
“Wait, you forgot to release me!”
The small golden dragon was shocked.
The Dragon Blood Array was destroyed, but the two chains binding her were still intact!
“Hey, come back and release me! I promise I won’t eat you if you do!”
The small dragon’s voice became more and more urgent, changing from a commanding tone to a pleading one.
Nie Chen finally stopped in his tracks.
He turned around and returned to the Pool of Blood, gently stroking the small dragon’s soft fur.
It was quite soft.
Nie Chen smiled: “We don’t know each other, so if you want me to rescue you, you should pay a price.”
“What price? The dragon king has countless treasures; you can have anything you want.”
The small dragon’s eyes sparkled with a hint of surprise.
“I’m not interested in treasures.”
Nie Chen shook his head: “I happen to need a pet. Why don’t you sign a contract with me and become my pet?”
“How could that be?! The dragon king is the mighty Western Sea Dragon King! Even if I die, I won’t become a human’s pet!”
The small dragon refused without hesitation.
“You’re sure?”
Nie Chen’s smile grew wider, as if he had seen through her:
“The Imperial Court’s cultivators are on their way here. If you refuse, you’ll be doomed. Besides, I don’t need you to be my pet forever. You just need to be my mount for a year, and the contract will be fulfilled. And, you’ll receive a generous reward.”
As he spoke, Nie Chen took out the golden scale dragon carp that the System had rewarded him.
“This carp!”
The small dragon’s expression froze.
Every dragon in the Dragon Clan knew about this carp.
Although the Dragon Clan was powerful, every dragon’s bloodline was predetermined.
But the golden scale dragon carp could greatly enhance the Dragon Clan’s bloodline strength.
As the newly appointed dragon king, she was still young and weak, which was why Shu Zi’an and his group had been able to capture her.
If she could get her hands on the golden scale dragon carp, her situation in the Dragon Clan would change dramatically!
“Gulp.”
The small dragon swallowed hard.
