Chapter 143 – Common Person Becomes King! (2/2)
“Yes.” Li Muyang sat back down onto his chair.
Now that the 'miracle' has been solved and a hero was not present, everybody's focus and attention s.h.i.+fted away.
Only Lu Qiji's eyes were fixed on Li Muyang with a piercing stare, regarding him as an extremely dangerous person.
“So I'm not a genius.” Li Muyang said to Chu Xun who was sitting next to him.
Chu Xun coldly snorted: “you're not a genius, you're just trash.”
“How can you say that?” Li Muyang felt indignant at the remark, but was inwardly extremely happy.
He had to remain low profile and become 'trash' in others' eyes. This was the safest path for him.
“Right.” Tie Muxin wanted to repay Li Muyang by chiming in and defending him: “Before attacking others, it's best to look at yourself first.”
“Students——-” Yang Xiaohu sighed, lightly drumming his finger on the table. “Please respect me.”
And so, all the students settled into silence.
As the lesson draws to an end, Yang Xiaohu closed the textbook in his hand, looked at his students and said: “students, you can take the textbooks back to read and study, you can also take it back to look over today's lesson and practice the correct p.r.o.nunciation of dragon language—–also, there's a very long text at the back of the book, which was copied from the original copy of [Language of Dragons]. I'm also currently in the research phase; the meaning is also unclear to me. If you are interested you can take a look at it. Though there is no need to be aggressive, learning is a gradual process.”
After bathing, Li Muyang took out the book [Language of Dragons] and carefully studied.
Inside were mostly monosyllabic words that he could recognise but also some rather complicated hieroglyphs that he could not understand too well.
He suddenly remembered that teacher Yang mentioned there's a piece of text at the back of the book that even he does not understand, and so he turned to the last page.
Just like when people see characters they would read them out loud, the instant Li Muyang saw the tadpole-like characters, he also automatically read them out loud.
He recognised those tadpoles.
If anybody sees it, they would be as amazed as seeing immortals.
Because the weird noise that Li Muyang used to read out, is precisely the pure and n.o.ble language of dragons.
“The sky is black and the earth yellow, and the universe is chaotic. The sun and moon can be high or low, with stars arranged in patterns. Clouds soar up to deliver rain and dew forms into morning frost. Gold is born in the River Li while jade comes from Kunlun Mountain. Sea is salty while streams are light, scales sink and feathers glide——-”
Li Muyang froze for a moment, thinking to himself: Why does these writing feel so familiar? As though it's deeply imprinted in my mind.
His eyes were fixed on the words on the paper once again as he continued to read them out loud: “Dragon master, fire Emperor; bird official, and the emperor of men. Only dragons can have the same age as the sky. Only my dragon clan can share the land with the earth.
Li Muyang suddenly became excited, after reading these words he felt as if he had consumed some elixir.
Dragons, what powerful creatures.
He is actually a part of them, although currently he was not fully acknowledged by them—–but at least he obtained acknowledgement in parts.
Nujiang.
Behind Li Muyang, in a place Li Muyang had not noticed, as he read out the text, the red river water was bubbling up, as though it's a gigantic pot of water being simmered.
Just like water that had just started to boil, it's gently rippling. As Li Muyang's voice rose steadily in pitch, the water became out of control.
Nujiang is originally not peaceful, the thundering river looks like a red dragon charging forth.
But today Nujiang was particularly ferocious and extremely frantic.
Rumble——
Rumble——
Raging waves beat against the sh.o.r.e, red waves rolled as high as one thousand feet.
Reflected in the magic mirror of Water Moon cave was the scene of raging Nujiang.
Kong Li carefully watched the scene, saying gravely: “Nujiang is angry. What is going on?”
Xiahou Qianbai stretched out his fingers, swiftly performing one hand seal after another.
Waving his long flowing sleeves and with his face looking as pretty as jade, he said aloud: “I have used the [five chief demons searching technique] to investigate and did not sense any strong presence above Nujiang——”
At the top of Starry Sky Academy's observatory tower stood a man dressed in a Starry Sky robe who has been standing there for some time.
Staring unblinkingly into the roaring red Nujiang, he said with a sigh: “More than ten thousand years of continual resentment, you still won't let it go? Do you still vainly hope that someone can summon your souls back for you?”
Li Muyang's voice grew louder and louder, pouring out his deepest feelings: “Born as a dragon, good fortune comes from all sides. Become an immortal being after death and be virtuous forever.”
“Born a dragon, destroying riotous countries. After becoming an immortal being after death, the divine continent would prosper forever.”
“Born as a dragon, must not disappoint the millions of citizens. After becoming an immortal being after death, the common becomes King.”
