Inside Python Belly City, the billowing smoke finally settled.
Everyone gathered in a circle, discussing the next steps, but it was inevitable that their minds were somewhere else.
Because behind Chu Liang sat the terrifying fire dragon, quietly sprawling on the ground. Its pair of blazing golden eyes watched them. Although it was no longer ferocious, it still sent chills down their spines.
Some fires only get colder the more they burn.
"Everyone, don't be afraid...." Chu Liang forced a smile. He too was scared, but he comforted, "We need it to get out."
The Dragon Soul of Ba Xia within the Fire Dragon was like an innocent newborn, pure without having ever seen the outside world. If the City Lord of Python Belly City instilled it with bloodlust and slaughter, it would become a violent beast.
But as Chu Liang attempted to pacify it, it settled and grew calm.
To put it simply, its intelligence was still not high.
