Chapter 118 - 118 - Black Market Owner, Oli

Xia saw the Kirin's attack being launched at Long. His heart started palpitating strangely. He didn't think about anything else.

"Long!" he shouted and leaped towards his Lover.

The masked man saw this and jumped after him. "Stop," he shouted.

But it was too later. Xia was already close to the range of attack.

Long Aotian saw his lover launching towards him. Without any thoughts, he cradled his head and hugged him tight. 'If the attack landed, Xia would be badly hurt' he thought as jumped over so that his own back was protecting his lover from the attack.

Seeing this, the masked man retreated. 'I want to see how this 'royal brat' will protect him,' he thought. But he still had his attack position. If there was even a chance of his son getting injured, he would interfere.

He peered at the huge Kirin with narrowed eyes. 'Kirin's were usually very loyal to the dragons, but after thousands of years things have changed.' He thought.

"Aotian," Xia whispered and gazed up. On hind sight he could see a huge wind blade slashing towards them. Without any thoughts he raised his gloved hands and shouted, "Devour,"

The glove on his hands detached from his hands and formed a huge chain-mail net covering both of them. It completely shone bright golden and the upcoming wind blade was devoured completely.

"Burp," it burped loudly.

"Wow," Xia murmured.

The masked man witnessed all this with a small smile. "good job, son." He whispered.

The glove shook and jumped in air cheerfully. It rushed back to him and attacked itself to his hands. Soon it regained its rusted appearance.

Prince Gua saw all this from under the Kirin. "A heaven grade weapon!" he said softly. "Kirin, go, kill them both, I want that glove now," he shouted.

The Kirin stood without any movements.

"Oli, this is enough. Remember who you are standing in front of. Even though you left heaven, you are still a heaven's official, you shouldn't mess around in human's realm." Long warned in a low tone. His spiritual energy was running amok.

"I said attack," Gua Juan shouted. The Kirin did not abide by commands. "You wait.." he tore his sleeves. His arms were covered in black tattoo all over. It formed into many enchantments and runes.

These enchantments were placed on him to keep the beast in its place. For centuries, an heir with light spiritual energy is chosen.

The enchantments were passed down from the previous Kirin owner. He, Prince Gua, was blessed with golden light energy since the moment he was born, so the Kirin was passed over to him at a young age.

Bonding with the Kirin not only gives him enormous power. But the bond helps him draw spiritual energy from the beast.

Only way to kill the Kirin was to destroy the enchantment.

Gritting his teeth prince Gua he summoned a small dagger and stabbed the enchantment on one of his forearm.

"Screeechhhh," the Kirin screeched loudly. Its huge head started bleeding and blood oozed into its eyes. It shook its head and screamed again.

"Hey stop it," Long shouted and threw out a fireball at prince Gua.

The Kirin stopped this attack with its huge hoofs. "Screech," it shouted and started shrinking. Its huge body snapped and creaked. It deformed itself and formed into a very naked man. His hair bright sea foam blue. It hung below his waist. But the most noticeable was his face. Half of his face scotched black.

The naked man dashed over to them. "Why didn't you dodge it, you stupid Long. You could have died," he shouted.

Long scoffed. "As if your puny wind blade could cut through my scales," he taunted.

"Oh, i'll show you what my puny wind can do." The blue-haired man growled loudly. He dashed over to the golden dragon and held his shoulder.

Long turned around and spat out fire right on his face. "Oli, you bastard, stay away," he said in warning tone.

"Cheee, I can't believe I'll see your stupid face so soon," Oli said in contempt.

Long rearranged Xia in his arms and faced him. "Shut up, you idiot. How did you get caught by humans?"

"Me? I came to them by myself," Oli said with a prideful smile.

Long gaped at him. "What? Are you crazy?"

With a crazy laugh Oli approached around him "Of course I am, what are you hiding by the way?"

Xia glared at him from behind.

But Long Aotian covered his eyes so that his vision would not be soiled by the naked form of Oli.

"Who is that Long?" Oli whispered with his eyes wide open. He had never seen this man being close to anyone. When they were both in the heavens realm, many men and woman threw themselves at this golden dragon, but he was always sturdy as a rock. 'So who has the power to tame this mighty dragon? Hmm, interesting,' he thought.

He dashed around but the golden dragon turned back only exposing his back to him. "Oh, come on, is that your mate? A human, wow," he whispered.

"Shut up, and wear some clothes," Long shouted, hiding his lover from this lecherous man.

Xia peeked out from his lover's embrace and glared at this new man. "Who are you ah? Do you know him long, is he your friend?"

"More like an enemy. Don't mind him," Long mumbled. He held his lover's shoulders and scrutinised him from top to bottom. "Baby, are you hurt? Did that bad man hit you? Tell me I will take care of him," he whispered.

Xia laughed out loud, looking at his worried expression. "But I was not kidnapped by him," He kissed his lover's soft cheeks.

Long cupped his face and peered at him. "Oh... ohhh, then where were you. I searched for you in that cave,"

"I was in dragon pearl space," Xia held up the space pearl. With a glare he whispered, "You never told me who he is? He seems familiar,"

Long pointed to the naked man with a questioning look. "Oh, this guy, you have met him before. He was the black market boss of Juikal village,"

"What! The same man who kidnapped Felia and those other humans," the crayfish exclaimed. He glared at the new man even more. 'How dare he? First, he tried to hurt Felia, now he wanted to hurt Long,' he thought.

Xia summoned his sword and lunge at him with but Long Aotian held him back. "Whoa, love, it's okay, this guy can't do anything. I am stronger than him,"

Xia gripped his sword tightly.

Long hugged at his lover with a small smile. His little lover was trembling in anger. "It's okay, I'm fine. And let's not care about that bastard,"

Oli stomped in front of him with his hands on his hips. "Oi, oi, the bastard you are talking about is right here!" he growled.

"Wear some clothes, for goodness's sake. Are you so proud to swing around your LITTLE elephant," Long scowled. He couldn't look at him like this anymore. And he was soiling his lover's eyes.

"Why? Are you shy? Are you embarrassed that I am bigger than you?" the Kirin laughed out loud and swigged around his hips.

Xia peeked out again. "Hump, he is not even that big," he said with a frown.

Long scowled and covered his eyes again. "Baby, don't look at him,"

Prince Gua held his bleeding hand and watched them banter around. He watched the angelic man in someone else's arms, His blood ran cold. "Shut up! You stupid beast attack them, kill them," he shouted.

But the beast just gave him a cold glare.

The legendary Kirin of the golden temple was not following his orders. This made him rage even more. He stabbed another one of his enchantments. "YOU. FOLLOW. MY. ORDERS. GOT. IT," he shouted.

Immediately Oli's neck started bleeding profusely. He scoffed and wiped the blood away. He slowly strode over to the human. A gale of wind gushed around him as he got closer. "You puny human. You think you can control me?"

Prince Gua felt fear grip his heart. With one hand he summoned a light sword and held it to his enchantments. "Yes, you are just a dog of our golden temple. And you listen to me!" he stabbed his shoulder, which had a circular enchantment.

Oli scoffed louder. "A dog? Hahah, well see who is the dog after I leave your 'all so powerful' temple,"

"No.. no.. You are under our control..." Gua Juan felt real panic at this moment. If the golden temple lost the Kirin because of his actions he would be banished and most probably killed. 'I have to gain control of him again,' he stabbed another one of the enchantments.

Oli laughed loudly. He slammed a wind blade on the puny human. Prince Gua was not able to handle the overwhelming power, so he lost consciousness.

He dragged him up and threw him on his shoulder. He turned back and looked at the silly looking golden dragon.

"Since you are with your mate I will let you go this time.. But the next time we meet, I will kill you," Oli said in a sinister smirk and disappeared.
