As Xu Shan moved his head, he could hear some cracking noise around his neck. The impact of the attack had caught him by surprise, but in the last few weeks, his body had only grown physically stronger.
Despite that, his body was still in a lot of pain, even though he didn't show it.
Ignoring Xu Shan's reaction, the Dragon's figure flickered. His speed was just as fast as he appeared before the young man, grabbing him by his skull.
However, to his surprise, his hand only caught what appeared like an after image. The young man who was lying on the ground until now had disappeared.
The Draconian Man didn't even see how Xu Shan moved. It was as if he just... disappeared into thin air.
The Dragon was stunned at the speed that the young man showed in response. However, before he could react, he felt a cold hand grab onto his neck.
Before he could do anything, his body was tossed toward the sky.
The Draconian Man used his majestic wings to balance his body in the sky, coldly looking down. For some reason, he couldn't see any change in Xu Shan's aura.
However, he still remembered the frightening increase in that young man's strength for that fraction of a second when he moved. It was to the point that it even made him scared for a little.
To think that a human scared him, the Dragon felt even more humiliated.
"Instead of looking at me, you should probably look above you... That thing is never late..." Xu Shan pointed towards the sky, standing in such a position that the Dragon was right above him.
"That thing...?" The Dragon frowned, slowly raising his head. However, as soon as he looked up, his face turned pale, revealing a frightened expression.
"Heaven's punis-"
Pitch black lightning came crashing down from the sky. Before the Dragon could even think about dodging, the black lightning hit the Draconian, like a punishment from the Heaven.
"Arghh!" He roared in pain. Most of his skin was burned as lightning cursed through its pale white body, making him feel like he was paralyzed.
The Dragon's eyes dimmed as the black lightning dissipated, leaving only the smell of burnt flesh in the air.
Xu Shan took a few steps back as the Dragon's body fell straight to the ground with a loud noise.
However, the lighting in the sky still hadn't dissipated. It gathered once again in the sky.
He was clear that the lightning wasn't going to stop until it struck him. And the longer it went on, the stronger this was going to become.
"Even though temporarily, I did break through this world's limit. Give it your best shot..."
However, as he spoke, he didn't forget to hold the hand of the Dragon who still couldn't move.
The majestic lighting bolt fell once again, looking to destroy every sinner.
Xu Shan stood bravely under lightning, donning no protective item.
He clenched his teeth as lightning struck him. However, he didn't once cry in pain.
On the other hand, the Snow Dragon roared even louder. "Stop! I beg you, stop!"
As Xu Shan held onto him, he felt the same pain as Xu Shan. However, it was even more painful for someone like him.
It was to the point that he started to feel that death was better than this pain.
Fortunately, now that the lightning managed to punish Xu Shan, it stopped.
Xu Shan dropped to one knee, momentarily feeling weaker. On the other hand, the Dragon couldn't even move, feeling half dead.
"Well, that was fun. Should we try again?" The young man gazed at the Draconian Man next to him, asking with a teasing voice.
"Just who... are you?" The silver haired man asked Xu Shan, gazing with lifeless eyes.
He understood why that Heavenly Punishment came. It came from Xu Shan. That made him understand that the strength that Xu Shan had shown him previously was only the strength that he was allowed to use here. In reality, his strength was much stronger.
For the Heavenly Punishment to be this strong, it could only mean that his strength was at least at the peak of the Upper Realm, which should've been impossible for the young man.
"Enough talking." Xu Shan sat down more comfortably next to the helpless dragon.
He pulled out the Dagger, placing it on the throat of the silver haired man. "Will you become my Contracted Beast, or will you become a corpse forever to be buried in this mountain?"
The silver haired man was the most helpless he had ever been. He couldn't even escape, since his entire body refused to listen to him. Two Heavenly Punishments were too much for him, especially in his humanoid form.
Even if Xu Shan was stronger, he would have fought him longer, with a chance to win. However, he underestimated the young man so much that he didn't even see the Heavenly Punishment coming.
His eyes revealed some anger, but also helplessness.
"I will take your silence as a yes." Xu Shan smiled in response. This was the best outcome for him to control the dragon without cutting some of its limbs in anger during a long stretched battle.
"To think that a day like this would ever come for me..." The silver haired man muttered in disbelief. However, he didn't say no.
Anything was better for him than to lose his life. If he had even the slightest chance to fight back, he could've taken that, but he didn't even have that. He could only agree to becoming a Servant of the human, even though he felt that he was defeating using schemes and cheating.
"I will become your contracted Beast... Take off that dagger..." He finally accepted.
Xu Shan removed the dagger, and kept them back in his storage. He used an ordinary blade instead to slice his finger a little, making it bleed.
He used his own blood to carve a contract seal on the forehead of the Silver Haired Draconian, which could only work as long as the Snow Dragon actually didn't resist the contract even the slightest.
"You should pray that the contract doesn't fail."
****
While Xu Shan was trying to establish a contract with the Snow Dragon, Aira was looking in their direction, unable to feel any battle noises anymore.
