Young Dragon

  Chen Zhong's handprint is a relatively common technique among ghost-catching masters, which isn't surprising. Those profound secrets were all kept within individual families, so how could they let an outsider come into contact with them?

  Du Sulin stood quietly with his hands behind his back, looking at Chen Zhong with a calm expression as he finished the handprint.

  "Take it!" Chen Zhong let out a low shout, and the purple golden gourd emitted a wave of dark purple light that shot towards Du Si Lin.

  Just as he was smiling triumphantly, everything in front of him froze his smile.

  Around Du Sulin, a golden giant dragon roared and revolved, his own purple-black light was blocked by the golden light and could not invade one bit.

  "Y...y..." Chen Zhong's voice trembled uncontrollably.

  "Now, shouldn't you consider answering my question?" Duslin's slightly loose T-shirt fluttered in the wind, her mouth curved into a faint smile, and her voice was as cold as icy seawater, making one's heart tremble. The golden giant dragon around her hummed softly, like thunder.

  "You... what kind of person are you?" Chen Zhong forcibly regained his composure, making sure he didn't lose his demeanor too much.

  "You don't need to know who I am, just answer my question." Suddenly, Du Sulin shouted loudly, "Why are you missing a soul?!"

  "Taken away by force...!" Chen Zhong was originally uneasy and was startled into speaking out loud by Du Si Lin.

  "Forcefully extracted..." Du Sulin furrowed his brow, muttering to himself, why did he only extract one soul?

  "Tell me everything you know, or I won't mind taking your soul away." Du Slin said coldly.

  "That one contained special abilities, which allowed me to fight against ghosts without relying on spiritual power. I was also taken in as a disciple by my master because of this ability." When mentioning this, Chen Zhong's eyes had both nostalgia and pride, but also many things that Du Shilin couldn't understand, like anger and fear.

  Three souls and seven spirits, each of which may have a special ability at an uncertain rate. Just as people often say that special functions or innate talents are the treasures unique to the human body, whose value cannot be measured. Du Sulin's Lun Tian Yan is one of them.

  "At that time, I was almost invincible, sweeping away all the ghosts. But until one day, while catching ghosts, a black fog enveloped me." Chen Zhong's body began to shake violently, revealing his current emotional turmoil. "I felt my soul and body being torn apart in agony, but had no ability to resist at all, I fainted from the pain, and soon after waking up, discovered that I had lost that special ability. My master said, I was missing a spirit, and thus no longer possessed such magical powers."

  Du Sulin heard this and retracted the overflowing spiritual power on her body. She felt a faint sense of unease, thinking that Chen Zhong's matter was somehow connected to her own, but she had no evidence.

  "Go ahead." After finishing speaking, Du Sulin turned around and walked in the opposite direction, his back appearing somewhat desolate and lonely.

  Chen Zhong was stunned for a second, then gritted his teeth and formed an even more complex handprint. He bit the tip of his finger, and blood dripped onto the gourd. Suddenly, the purple-gold gourd radiated brilliant light and transformed into an eagle that flew towards Du Sili with a shrill cry. Du Sili was completely unguarded and instinctively raised his hand to resist, just as the eagle was about to strike him from a distance of only one finger's length away. A burst of golden light suddenly shot out from the surface of the sea, blocking the attack for Du Sili.

  "Looking for death!" Du Sulin felt inexplicably that all the blood in her body was boiling with anger, she had never been so angry before, but when she saw that golden light block a blow for herself and suddenly dim its radiance, she became enraged. Like an erupting volcano, unstoppable.

  "Dragon God!" She let out a loud cry, her spiritual energy condensing into a gigantic dragon several times larger than before. The sky above the sea grew even darker, with faint thunder rumbling ominously.

  Chen Zhong's heart sank to the bottom, that was his strongest and most powerful attack, wanting to take advantage of Du Siling's unpreparedness to capture him. Who knew that the strange golden light suddenly burst out.

  "Go!" With Du Sulin's command, the seemingly weak and slender fingers pointed in Chen Zhong's direction, and the divine dragon roared away, its eyes wide with anger, as if it had sensed Du Sulin's fury.

  Just as Shen Long was about to arrive, Du Sulin forcibly withdrew his spiritual power.

  She took a deep breath to calm herself down, the divine dragon swirling around Chen Zhong's body, its powerful aura oppressive as if just one sniff from that giant dragon could make Chen Zhong's soul fly away.

  "Get out!" Duslin spat out a word coldly, almost able to hear her gritting her teeth.

  Chen Zhong glanced at Du Siling and left with his fastest speed ever. He didn't want to stay here for another moment.

  "Are you okay?" Du Sulin squatted down, stretching out her hand to touch the golden light that had fallen to the ground. Her tone was gentle, and in her heart, she felt an extremely strong sense of closeness to this beam of golden light, as if they shared a common origin.

  The golden light gradually dimmed, and a crystal dragon with a white body and eight claws appeared before Du Sulin's eyes.

  "Dragon clan?" Du Sulin asked with a skeptical tone, she was astonished that there really existed such a race of dragons, and it wasn't just a legend or an illusion.

  The crystal dragon nodded, its eyelids drooping weakly as if it were sleepy. It propped itself up and rubbed against Du Si Lin's body before curling up into a ball and remaining still.

  Duslin carefully picked up the little dragon and affectionately touched her small head. Unbeknownst to him, the little dragon had used some sort of magic, causing those old demons to still be trapped in the sea after all this time. To be on the safe side, Duslin hastened his pace, rushing towards his own body at the fastest speed possible.

  On the other hand, Du Kongyang and Chu Feng's defense was quite passive. Du Sili stood still on the spot, unable to move a single thread of his clothes. The two had to guard Du Sili's body with their lives, but more and more small demons rushed towards them.

  Xiao Qingzhu didn't help much, but she also didn't drag her feet. She was surrounded by a group of little monsters, yet she didn't show the slightest sign of panic. As long as her hand touched those monsters, they would suffer damage. Xiao Qingzhu seized this opportunity and for a time, she was evenly matched with the little monsters, even using the sharp high-heeled shoes to their fullest extent.

  When Du Sulin returned to his body, both Du Kongyang and Chu Feng were entangled by the little monsters. One of them found an opening and swung a bone rod at Du Sulin with the intention of smashing him to death. Du Sulin raised his hand and caught the incoming bone rod. With a slight effort, the bone rod broke inch by inch. The little monster apparently didn't expect this situation and stood there without any reaction. Du Sulin held the small crystal dragon in his left hand and struck the little monster's chest with his right palm.

  "Si Lin?" Xiao Qingzhu was both shocked and delighted, because the little demon that had been beaten by Du Si Lin until it spat blood lay on its side beside her.

  "Be careful!" Du Sulin's pupils suddenly contracted, and she rushed to Xiao Qingzhu's side in a few swift steps. Her spiritual power had already arrived before her, and the golden giant dragon transformed into an arrow that pierced through the demon behind Xiao Qingzhu. "Divine Dragon!" Du Sulin shouted, and the divine dragon seemed to understand her intentions as it also wrapped around Du Kongyang and Chu Feng. The golden light burst forth, transforming into countless small dragons that chased after those little demons that had just been so arrogant.

  The eight-clawed crystal dragon that had been nestled in Douslin's arms was awakened by the sound, and it opened its large dragon eyes to stare at Douslin with a bewildered expression.

  "Are you awake?" Du Sulin smiled slightly and asked the little dragon in his arms.

  Xiao Shuijing Long nodded, opened his mouth and let out a low, low dragon hum, his eyes staring at Du Siling with a gaze that seemed to be yearning for something.

  Du Sulin's eyebrows furrowed, her face thoughtful, the killings around her seemed to have nothing to do with her, she was focused on talking to the little guy in her arms.

  "What should I eat when I'm hungry?" Du Siling muttered to herself.

  "It seems to have just been born..." Xiao Qingzhu said softly, the little dragon was only as thick as a large leg, its clear and shiny eyes were like bright lamps in the night, making people feel affectionate at first sight.

  "Do you know?" Du Sulin asked, but as soon as Xiao Qingzhu spoke up, the little crystal dragon suddenly flew out of Du Sulin's arms and into Xiao Qingzhu's.

  "It looks quite small." Xiao Qingzhu smiled as she measured the crystal dragon in her arms, which was covered all over with tiny crystal scales that shone like diamonds. The crystal dragon saw Xiao Qingzhu smile and imitated her by smiling too, narrowing its eyes into two straight lines, unfortunately without the curved shape of a crescent moon.

  The surroundings gradually quieted down, Du Sulin's strong return did not give these monsters a chance to resist, and they fled in disarray. Countless golden small dragons frolicked and chased the fleeing little monsters, reveling in their joy. These little monsters were usually arrogant and domineering, but they had never been so miserable as they were today.

  "Go back first, lest those old guys chase us back." Du Slin thought for a moment and said, not knowing what had happened to those old monsters, it's best if they met some even older monsters in the sea and couldn't come back, so as to avoid more trouble.

  A few people returned to the hotel where Du Si Lin lived, and Crystal Long was still held in Xiao Qing Zhu's arms, covered with clothes, and if you didn't look carefully, you would think it was a baby.

  Du Kongyang told Du Siling with a very serious expression that the little crystal dragon's soul was not complete, missing one soul. And it should have been born with nine claws, but the ninth claw seemed to be deformed due to being attacked before birth.

  "It seems like someone is collecting souls." Du Sulin recalled the words Chen Zhong said on the beach and inferred this conclusion.

  "But what's the point of collecting souls, and he didn't take all of them, just a part." Du Kongyang couldn't understand it. If it was said that taking away the strongest part of each person's soul and combining them into one entity, this statement almost doesn't hold up. It's like how the human body naturally rejects foreign organs, two people's souls can't possibly merge together.

  "I don't know." Duslin shook her head and recounted what had just happened on the beach. The eight-clawed crystal dragon was the one that had escaped from Haicheng's golden light. When Duslin also wanted to chase after it into the sea, the golden light transmitted a faint wave, telling her not to follow.

  "Can you understand what I'm saying?" Du Sulin asked while teasing Xiaolong.

  The crystal dragon let out a series of dragon roars, which sounded like bursts of laughter, "Heh heh heh". Upon hearing Du Si Lin's words, it nodded.

  "Can you transform into a human form?" Du Slin said, the crystal dragon's appearance was too showy to take out.

  The eight-clawed crystal dragon broke free from Xiao Qingzhu's arms, circled in the air several times, and transformed into a baby girl before falling back into Xiao Qingzhu's arms. Naked, her delicate skin was crystal clear, and one could faintly see the tiny blood vessels; it was a girl.

  The various colors in the room seem to exist solely to set off the black color of her eyes, that kind of ink-like pure black, yet gives people a bright and clear feeling.

  "Mom—mom!" Little Water Crystal Dragon shouted at Du Slin, and as soon as the words fell, she clapped her chubby little hands and burst out laughing.

  It's been a long time since I read an article about a teacher-student romance, and not long ago it was said that the teacher had unfortunately died in a car accident. At that time, I was sad for a long time and held back my tears without crying. As a result, today I suddenly heard that it was all fake and there was no teacher at all. I actually cried, but I don't know if they were tears of joy or sorrow.

  At night, sorting out the properties of various medicinal materials, I suddenly felt that my language skills were so poor. Some of the names of these medicinal materials couldn't even be called out, it's really been too long since I last touched medicine, I'm so rusty, what a sin!
