Chapter 657, The Other Three Giant Dragons

It turned around and looked towards Lu Fan, then froze for a moment.
Immediately after, a voice transmitted directly to Lu Fan’s mind through a spiritual connection.
“Oh? Not only is there a Giant Dragon, but there’s also a Human? No, wait. A Human and his Pet Dragon!?”
The Flame Dragon immediately discerned the identities of Lu Fan and Ye Sha and was clearly displeased.
When one considered it, this was understandable. Its own kind had become the Pet of another species, and moreover, that species was like Ants compared to them.
Even if Ye Sha was not a friend of this Flame Dragon, the latter found it equally difficult to accept.
Fire often represented volatility, and this Flame Dragon’s temperament was probably no better than Bao Bao’s.
Lu Fan could only feel his back being soaked with cold sweat, and he had already formed the plan to flee immediately if this Giant Dragon made any move against him.
However, although the Flame Dragon was somewhat emotional, it did not attack. Instead, it suppressed its anger and asked, “Who are you? Why have you come to the Valley of Life? If you are not a Rootless Dragon, how did you manage to enter?”
Seeing that the other party was somewhat rational and could be communicated with, Lu Fan quickly took out the Star Stone and said. “I was commissioned by a Rootless Dragon that left this place to find the Life Dragon King – Root of Everything. But, I never expected that the Valley of Life would become like this, so I have been searching to see if there are any other living Giant Dragons here.”
Upon seeing the Star Stone, the Flame Dragon sniffed hard. Its facial expression softened considerably as it nodded and said. “This scent is very familiar. It is indeed the token of a Rootless Dragon from within the Valley of Life. Originally, Humans who dare to set foot in Dragon Domain would be directly eliminated by us Giant Dragons. But considering that you were commissioned by one of our companions, and that the Valley of Life has also encountered such drastic changes, I shall not attack you.”
Hearing these words, Lu Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
However, at this moment, the corrupted and withered matter around them clearly began to move again. They started to form into more purplish black fibrous bodies, seemingly about to form new Monsters.
Seeing this, the Flame Dragon spread its wings and took flight, saying, “Follow me. This place is not safe!”
Having said this, it flapped its wings once, leaving only a trail of flame, and flew into the enormous flame gate.
Seeing this, Lu Fan immediately had Ye Sha follow closely behind.
As the two Dragons and one Human flew into the flame gate, the flame gate disappeared as well.
The withered matter around them only then ceased its movement and returned to silence.
Passing through the flame gate, Lu Fan felt his vision brighten.
This was because he had now arrived at a place filled with Life Essence, surrounded by the fragrance of grass and trees.
Not only that, but Lu Fan could also sense several powerful auras not far from him.
He instinctively looked over and his body immediately trembled. [More Giant Dragons! And there are more than one!]
The world behind the flame gate was not particularly large, equivalent to a small Dungeon Instance.
Apart from grasslands and dense trees, this place was almost identical to the Valley of Life that Lu Fan had imagined.
At the same time, in the distance stood a massive ancient tree that appeared to have eons of history, with a height of several thousand metres.
However, this ancient tree’s branches and leaves were withered, clearly in poor condition.
Beneath the tree, three Dragons lay prostrate.
One was entirely bronze in colour, with claws and teeth far larger and sharper than those of ordinary Giant Dragons. Its size was also twice that of other Giant Dragons, with exaggerated muscular bulges across its frame. One could tell at a glance that it was a brawler amongst Dragons. Its capabilities in close combat must be terrifying.
Another had a body that was clearly much more graceful, with a streamlined form. The scales on its skin were adorned with flowing cloud patterns, possessing an indescribable beauty.
The last Giant Dragon was in a more pitiful state compared to the previous two.
The first two showed no obvious injuries, while this one was covered in wounds that had yet to heal.
Its appearance was particularly distinctive, possessing two heads: one with red scales and another with blue scales.
Its body was also interwoven with these two colours. From its appearance, one could tell that it should be a Giant Dragon specialising in Magic Attack of two different Elements.
Including the Flame Dragon that had just brought Lu Fan over, there were four Giant Dragons in total here.
This was truly the first time Lu Fan had seen so many wild Giant Dragons, and he was momentarily stunned.
It was only when the Flame Dragon called back to him that Lu Fan snapped back to reality.
“Stop staring and come with me.”
“Oh.” Lu Fan nodded and rode Ye Sha, following behind the Flame Dragon.
Seeing the Flame Dragon approach, the other three Giant Dragons also raised their heads and let out roars, seemingly communicating with the Flame Dragon.
Unfortunately, Lu Fan did not understand Dragon Language and had no idea what they were saying.
However, the Flame Dragon must have mentioned him, because soon the attention of the other three Giant Dragons was directed towards him.
Immediately after, a female voice was transmitted. “So, there really is such a thing as a Dragon Tamer? The Human Race is truly presumptuous, to dare take up such a Profession.”
Lu Fan looked around and realised this should be the voice of that ‘Wind Dragon’.
Following this, a burly man’s rough voice also came, presumably from the Bronze Dragon: “I have heard that Humans are of all strange varieties. I heard that they even have a Divine Tamer amongst them. The existence of Dragon Tamers is nothing particularly remarkable.”
“What a pity. If I were wandering outside the Dragon Domain and saw Dragon Tamers amongst the Human Race, I would definitely crush them to pieces. I really would like to see, since this Profession was specifically created to Tame us Giant Dragons, what methods would they have to subdue me when I want to crush them?”
These words made Lu Fan’s back feel cold.
He thought to himself, [As expected, these Giant Dragons do not have particularly good temperaments, especially upon seeing a Dragon Tamer like me. If it were not for the fact that I possessed the token from the Starry Sky Ancestor, I would probably have already been divided up and eaten up by these Dragons…]
However, there were also those amongst the Giant Dragons who were not so judgemental and volatile, such as the heavily injured Two Headed Dragon.
“Enough. You can communicate such words in our own Dragon Language. There is no need to use ‘spiritual vibration’ to speak of your ill feelings. This Dragon Tamer has one of our kind following him. He must have formidable aspects to him. He is also not an enemy, and we also need any help we can get right now. So, stop trying to frighten him.”
This Two Headed Dragon should be stronger than the other two Dragons and also held a somewhat higher status. When it spoke, the other two Dragons nodded slightly and ceased speaking.
The Flame Dragon then landed beside the Two Headed Dragon, and its manner of speaking was the same as the others, also using this so-called ‘spiritual vibration’, not concealing anything from Lu Fan.
“This is the companion who appeared in the Valley of Life. I have brought him over. I did not expect that he would be the Pet Dragon of a Human. Moreover, their arrival at the Valley of Life was under the commission of a Rootless Dragon.”
