"I will stop when your people have some kind of civic sense and humility. If not I could always infuse such morals with my fists of love. I have been told that my fists can always spread happiness and joy to the world." John said and this time with a huge smile.
"Everybody step back." Jiang Nan shouted hearing the words of John. She knew if she didn't want any more injuries to the people around, she needed the people to calm down. This person was too powerful.
All hesitated for a moment before finally stepping back. Only the old man was still stuck at his place not able to move. The others went to take the martial artist who fell from high up and was groaning in pain to the medic facility. Though he wasn't injured and didn't break any bones, there would be pain for sure.
"Can we talk now? Why are you here with my sister and who are you?" Jiang Nan asked.
"My name is John Jameson and I am here to resolve the differences between Ta Lo and Ying Li. She had been banished just because she fell in love with an outside person. And that is an injustice. So I am here to remedy that. I want everything to be back to where it was before and let her new family be accepted in Ta Lo."
"You think I will believe you? You kidnapped my sister and her whole family and expect me to just accept her back? I admit I have a soft spot for her but the rules were set long ago." Jiang Nan said.
"Do they look like they are here out of coercion? They came here because I invited them. I don't really care about your Ta Lo and your small dimension. I admit the monsters behind the mountain are terrifying but that is it. I can kill them with the back of my hand. I am just here to see a happy reunion. If you don't believe me, you can go and talk to her in private. See if what I said was true or false." John said. Jian Nan was surprised that this person even knew of the monsters behind, but she thought that it must be Ying Li who had said about the monsters.
Jiang Nan then looked at the Ying Li and her family to see if there was any form of forced coercion or signs of kidnap but she found out that the family of 5 looked happy and would be safe to say that they were a little excited. Even though the episode started with brutality this didn't take away the fact that Ying Li was just happy to be back home.
Jiang Nan hesitated a bit before inviting them in for a normal conversation and on the assurance that the Master Guang Bo wouldn't speak ill. John let him go and just walked into Jiang Nan's home.
She finally couldn't hold it and hugged Ying Li. Her duties stopped her once, but she wanted to make it up to her in any way possible. Since it was the two women talking, John went out to look around. The gossip and the talks of two sisters would just bore him and he was sure they wouldn't like him being near.
The people around were curious about these new visitors who caused such a commotion but fearful too as they had seen what had happened to Master Guang Bo, so they just stared at John from afar.
John didn't mind being a zoo animal as long as the people don't cause trouble for him. As he started walking, he finally reached the bank of the lake. John could see the other side of the lake was a mountain.
And the mountain had a small platform above which there was a circular door. The door looked red in colour like the weapons of the people here, signifying that the door too was made of dragon scales.
"Phoenix, can you sense what is on the other side of the door?" John asked.
"No...All I can feel is void. That is Oblivion's department. Not mine." Phoenix came out and sat at the shoulder of John looking at the distant door. As they were discussing what could be on the other side of the door, there was a sudden movement on the water surface.
There were lots of bubbles coming out of the water and huge waves being created. John who looked at the door was surprised a bit but then he remembered what was laying dormant on the small lake.
The dragon.
And as expected a huge Chinese Dragon came out of the water making a splash all around. John finally got to see the dragon with his own eyes. A long dragon with white scales with hint of red scales all around. The dragon didn't look old as John could sense his life force.
The dragon after coming out looked at John. The sudden emergence of the dragons created a huge commotion in the village as all came out to see the Protector who had been on the lake and never showed its face to the people.
