Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 276 - 12: The Truth of History
The Zhenhai Canglong shuddered nervously.
Tang Xian said amiably,
"Don’t worry, as long as you tell me honestly, it’s fine if you can’t transform into human form...that’s pretty good too."
[I can...]
The Zhenhai Canglong stared into Tang Xian’s eyes, deciding it would change its answer to cannot if anything seemed amiss.
Tang Xian nodded his head, showing no sign of disappointment.

If it couldn’t, in fact, having eaten the first calamity-level creature that was a dragon wasn’t too bad.
If it could, keeping it around had many uses.
"Don’t be nervous, it’s not like I’ll eat you if you say you can’t. I’m not that kind of person," Tang Xian quipped effortlessly.
[I’m...I’m not nervous.]
Tang Xian found that this great evil dragon was truly cowardly without limit.
After all, being suppressed by the deceased Sea God for so long, it had already shown its tendency to bully the weak and fear the strong.
"Since you can, why not transform into a human form?"
[My strength would weaken, and...I’m ugly.]
Tang Xian wasn’t upset. Dragons were proud beings, and from the abilities of the Zhenhai Canglong, one could tell that this was a species favored by the creator.
It was normal for them to think their true form looked better.
[Have you finished asking your questions?]
"No, it’s not your turn to ask questions. Next question, do you have any clothes here?"

[Clothes?] The Zhenhai Canglong was puzzled.
"Yes, there are people waiting for me above the sea, all of them women. It wouldn’t be good to meet them looking like this."
The Zhenhai Canglong looked at Tang Xian with uncertainty and said,
[The ability of the Soul Crystal can create such external objects.]
Tang Xian paused. He knew about this function of the Soul Crystal. Bai Mansheng and Qing JiuYu did it this way.
They were creatures from the mineral area, so how could there possibly be human clothes?
Tang Xian said,
"I don’t have a Soul Crystal. Can you do it with your abilities?"
The Zhenhai Canglong nodded but then added,
[I can, but if you get too far away from me and I can’t sense you...]
"Don’t worry, you’ll be following me from now on."
The dragon’s body trembled once again; it had no desire to follow Tang Xian and quickly said,
[Lord Sea God commanded me to guard this place and forced me to make a Dragon Origin Blood Oath. I cannot break this oath!]
The Zhenhai Canglong thought that with this, it could escape Tang Xian.
"What’s a Dragon Origin Blood Oath?" Tang Xian stroked his chin, pondering.
[It’s a unique oath of the Dragon Clan. Once made, it’s unbreakable. If the oath is violated, I will be doomed forever!]
"There’s such a good thing? Why didn’t you say so earlier? Make one for me too."
The Zhenhai Canglong looked at Tang Xian, utterly baffled.
Tang Xian smiled in a very friendly way.
"I should’ve thought of this earlier. Given your nasty nature, even if there are so many treasures here, how could you willingly stay at the bottom of the deep sea? It would’ve been bearable if the Sea God were still alive, but it’s dead now. How could it make you guard this place for so long? It was all to save your life, wasn’t it? Tell me, what exactly was the oath you made at the beginning?"
The Zhenhai Canglong wore an expression that screamed, "Why did I bring that up and trap myself?"
Fortunately, the expressions of dragons differ from those of humans.
But it was sure that it had just dug a hole for itself.
"Stop dawdling, or I’ll pluck off each of your dragon scales one by one."
[I’ll say it...I’ll say it...I promised Lord Sea God I would guard this place until the person it was waiting for arrived, without taking a single step away!]
"Good, I am the person it was waiting for. You can’t hear the voices in the sea, but I can. Now I want you to make a Dragon Origin Blood Oath to be loyal to me forever and obey my commands."
[Despicable...Great creator of Eden, I cannot leave this place, please spare me!]
Tang Xian didn’t waste words. His hand, pressed against the dragon scale, exerted a slight force and instantly tore off a scale.
The Zhenhai Canglong’s body soared into the sky in an instant, wildly thrashing about from the intense pain.
Tang Xian’s expression remained calm. This same dragon had wanted to kill him just before.
It was different from little creatures like Tang Gazi and Tang Bingxiang, and different from clan leaders such as Qing JiuYu and Bai Mansheng.
This evil dragon was rotten from head to tail.
Without saying another word, he plucked off another dragon scale.
"Earlier, you slowly cut through my flesh with ice spikes. Now, I’m plucking your scales off one by one. It’s fair."
The Zhenhai Canglong was still somewhat unwilling to submit. If Tang Xian was indeed the person the Sea God was waiting for, it would mean it had upheld the Blood Oath, finally gaining its freedom. How could it fall under the control of another now?
[How can you prove it! How can you prove that you are the person Lord Sea God was waiting for! Ahhh! Stop it!]
Tang Xian continued to rip off the dragon scales. After achieving his unparalleled accomplishment, the body of the evil dragon was as fragile as the ice crystals it spat out.
"You only have the right to choose obedience or death, not the privilege to demand any explanation from me. Whatever I say, will be. When you join my team later, remember that, Student Tang Feiji."
The Zhenhai Canglong felt a desire to die. What the hell was Tang Feiji? Such an unpleasant name; this despicable human being, even their aesthetics were so vulgar!
[Please spare me!]
"I am about to pluck out your dragon horn. No objections, right?" Tang Xian said.
[Spare me, please spare me! I swear! I will follow you forever!]
The Zhenhai Canglong became desperate. A dragon without horns was, in its eyes, as pitiful and lowly as a snake.
Tang Xian said,
"Fine, make your Blood Oath. Don’t try to deceive me; I can see through whether you are being honest."
[I dare not... With my soul and flesh, I make this irrevocable oath. From this day on... I shall follow you forever! Obey your orders!]
