Chapter 65 Part1 (1/2)

The Dragon King’s Weakness

The feeling of your bones regenerating was very strange. Nian Bing's heart was also rejuvenated. The greater fire dragon Salamandhys before him was not all that scary. At the very least, the current situation favored him. Nian Bing still harbored some suspicion. This was obviously a fire-attributed dragon, so how could it use light magic? No matter his current doubts however, nothing could compare to the happiness of his serious wound fully recovering. Now, anything was possible.

His previously sour and negative feelings disappeared as the golden light enshrouded him. Testing his right arm, it felt like it did before. He could freely control his right arm. After he tore off his bandages, he saw that the frightening-looking wound had completely disappeared, not a single mark remaining.

Suddenly, the golden light turned light blue. It was the feeling of water carefully cooling his swollen arm. As each wave of water pulsed through his arm, he could feel the sensation in his right arm getting stronger. He wiggled his fingers, still as nimble as before. It was like he had never been injured in the first place.

The light dimmed, then disappeared. The gigantic cave was completely silent; everyone was shocked by the strange magic the greater fire dragon Salamandhys had used. Both light and water magic had actually been used by a fire-attributed being. Such a strange situation surpa.s.sed everyone's scope of understanding.

”Okay, the light has healed you and the water re-hydrated you. Your arm should not be a problem, so you may begin now.” Salamandhys acted as if he had just done this carelessly as he lazily ordered Nian Bing. He smacked his lips, his eyes filled with desire.

Nian Bing smiled and said, ”Of course. Please, wait a moment.” While saying that, he took out all of his cooking tools and some ingredients from Li De's and Feng Yun's spatial storage items. Under Salamandhys' watchful gaze, he suddenly frowned. He cast a gaze at the greater dragon, seemingly bashful. ”Mighty Salamandhys, I am truly sorry. Could you lend me some things to use? Otherwise how could I cook?”

Salamandhys looked at him impatiently. ”Lend you some things? Why are you so troublesome. What relation does lending you things have with cooking? Boy, if you are lying to me, you know what will happen.”

Nian Bing chuckled sheepishly. ”I would never dare offend you. However, as a chef, cooking the best foods requires all sorts of tools. However, you took some of my things, so how can I prepare food for you? Of course, they are already yours, so I wanted you to just lend them to me so I can make you a meal.” If you dare extort me, you think I won't hit back? Salamandhys, let's play. Let's see just who will have the last laugh.

Salamandhys' claw was as dexterous as a human hand. He extended one finger, pointing at Nian Bing's treasures. ”You're saying these are your kitchen knives?”

Nian Bing smiled. ”That is it. Please lend them to me first, and I will definitely be able to satisfy you.”

Salamandhys said dissatisfied, ”Humans are really a wasteful race. You brat, are actually more extravagant than me. I'll lend them to you.” He waved his claw, and a red light ferried the three divine knives and the holy light stone back to Nian BIng. A wave of emotion overcame Nian Bing. He stooped as he caught the Ice and Snow G.o.ddess' Sigh and the Flame G.o.d's Roar. The feeling of being united once again made him tremble. Old friends, you have returned. No worries, no matter what, I will never let you leave me again. He hurried to put these things into his s.p.a.ce ring.

Not giving Salamandhys the chance to be dissatisfied, Nian Bing told two mercenaries to hold up his pot. After a brief moment of consideration, he took out a giant pork chop. ”Because the things here are simple and crude, I will make you a pork chop. I believe you will enjoy it.” Salamandhys was a very large, so Nian Bing didn't cut up the pork chop, directly tossing it into the pot. Then he condensed ice magic into ice cubes and put them into the pot and used a flame spell to melt the ice into water to soak the pork chop.

Salamandhys seemed to forget about the other people. He sat right next to Nian Bing, curiously watching his movements. ”Boy, you can use both ice and fire magic?”

Nian Bing nodded. ”I can't compare to you though. You can use at least three fire magics whereas I can only use two.”

”Nononono, it's not the same. The light magic and water magic I use are just imitations. Both the ice and fire magics are in you. En, this is a very rare const.i.tution! However, your magic level is too modest. The magic power in your body is chaotic, turning and turning. This is very interesting.”

Nian Bing completely missed the tail end of his words. When he heard the word 'imitation' his mind suddenly exploded. It seemed like light had pierced through the dense cloud in his head; as if he had just opened a new door to magic. He stopped, continuously muttering ”An imitation!” to himself. He had thought of something, but had no way of truly grasping it.

Salamandhys raised a claw and lightly rapped it against Nian Bing's head, making him come to. ”Hey, hurry up and cook. Don't dilly-dally; I'm very hungry.”

Nian BIng awoke from his stupor with excitement surging in his heart. He knew that now was not the time for questions. Even if he asked, Salamandhys wouldn't tell him anything. He rubbed his aching head. ”Mighty Salamandhys, did you know that once this pork chop have been soaked, the meat will become more tender. Hasty men don't get to eat hot tofu. Wait a moment.”

Salamandhys snorted, bringing his head near the pot, desire in his eyes. ”I could eat tofu in one mouthful. But what is tofu?”

Nian Bing explained patiently, ”Tofu is a kind of food made out of soybeans. It has an extremely high nutritional value and is also delicious. If you want to eat it, I can make it for you later if I have the chance.”
