Chapter 128: The Punishment of Dragon King Canglang
Oh, hoo! This is the first time Qin Lang has heard someone call himself an evil god! Awesome!
He was circling high in the sky, and upon hearing these words, he gently wagged his tail. The people below only felt for a moment that there seemed to be a breeze blowing, and it seemed to be carrying mist.
On the altar, Song Deqiu, the prefect of Yanping County, looked down from above. He should have been singing words of praise for the Dragon King of the West Sea, but when he saw the people below being scattered by the army of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi, with several even being trampled by war horses, he suddenly felt unbearable pain in his heart.
Following the order of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi, the soldiers rushed directly towards the sacrifice, but the people immediately stopped them, shouting loudly, regardless of the high-ranking war horses and the weapons in the hands of the soldiers.
"Don't smash the Dragon King's altar! If you want to smash it, just step over me!!!"
"Yes! Everyone, protect the Dragon King's offering!"
"Protect the Dragon King's offering!!!"
People were shouting and running towards the sacrifice quickly. Originally, many people from Yanping County were watching the sacrifice here, there were several thousand people. Now, there were more than a thousand people surrounding the sacrifice offered to Lord Dragon King, and did not allow the soldiers on horseback to get close.
The soldiers looked at each other, and they couldn't just attack ordinary people on horseback. They started pushing and shoving each other, and His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi was so angry that he was about to explode.
"You losers!! Can't you see these lowly people are trying to rebel? Return the Dragon King! The entire Beiyang is my land of great power! How can there be room for such an evil god? Return the Dragon King of the West Sea! Smash him! If anyone continues to stop me, I will kill them without mercy!!!"
Those who hold power find it most difficult to accept having their authority challenged. At this moment, the King of Qi was furious. He felt that these untouchables who stood in the way of the sacrifice were rebelling, so he killed them all!!!
When the soldiers heard the prince's order, they could only draw their swords, the swords that had been used to kill foreign enemies, and point them at their own people. However, the people were not afraid at all and did not retreat at all.
The clash of the crowd began when the first mounted soldier rushed forward! In an instant, the area below the altar was in chaos. A soldier raised his knife high and chopped off a civilian's shoulder. In that instant, blood spurted out high, even onto the sacrifice.
But the man did not retreat at all. He was pulled away by the people behind him, and then new people rushed forward.
They shouted that these soldiers were not allowed to touch the Dragon King's sacrifice, and rushed over, and the scene became chaotic for a while.
On the altar, County Magistrate Song Deqiu watched as more and more people were injured. Tears finally flowed down his face. Unable to bear the loss of his people, he knelt on the altar and kowtowed three times. His original thoughts were long gone. He only wanted to tell the heavens that if there really were gods in this world, no matter who came to save the people of Yanping County today, he would be willing to serve them for life!
After kneeling three times and kowtowed nine times, he stood high on the altar and sang loudly.
"Yanping County Magistrate Song Deqiu held a ceremony today to offer sacrifices to the gods. The people of Yanping County all brought offerings. We heard that the Dragon King Canglang of the West Sea is traveling far and wide. Please, Dragon King, send down the rain! Save Beiyang!!!"
He no longer paid attention to His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi at this time, and the people below did not retreat. Many people even began to surround His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi's carriage. There were already several thousand people here. At this time, Prince Qi Gao Zhan was surrounded by the people and was frightened. He shouted quickly.
"Come back and protect this king! These untouchables! These untouchables are going to rebel!!!"
The cavalrymen who had attacked the civilians could only return to the King of Qi again. In order to protect His Highness the King of Qi, they surrounded the King of Qi's carriage. There were only a few thousand people around, even if they were all ordinary civilians, but a few thousand people against more than a hundred of them. No one dared to imagine what would happen if a real conflict broke out!
Unexpectedly, the people did not continue to attack, but instead knelt on the ground like Song Deqiu, the prefect of Yanping County, and kowtowed three times and nine times.
"Please, Lord Dragon King, send down the rain!"
"Please, Dragon King, send down the rain!!!"
"Please, Dragon King, have mercy on the world and send down the rain!!!"
The voices of the people were almost breaking through the sky. Such a mighty sound seemed to make the city walls begin to tremble, and it made King Gao Zhan of Qi tremble with anger. He stood on his carriage and pointed at the high platform for worshiping gods and cursed.
"What a bullshit Dragon King! Without my approval, this Dragon King is nothing but an evil god! What you're doing is called obscene worship!!! All the gods in the world are bestowed by the royal family, what on earth do you lowly people want! Are you really planning a rebellion?!"
He scolded these ignorant people in this way, but the next moment, the originally bright sky suddenly turned dark, and a strong wind swept over, almost blowing him off the frame. If someone hadn't supported him, he would have fallen to the ground.
Along with such a strong wind, there was real thunder in the sky that seemed to be right next to the ears. A flash of lightning split the dark sky. In an instant, everyone looked up and saw a huge black dragon flying in the sky. It was so terrifying that people looked up and could only see the dragon's body and the black scales on it as far as their eyes could see.
When he moved, his black dragon claws were revealed. The five claws made him a real dragon. There was lightning flashing under his dragon claws, which made people feel creepy.
The sky was so dark and thick that it seemed to be pressing down. Then the Lord Dragon King let out a dragon roar. The deep and distant sound made all the soldiers who were riding on their horses fall to the ground instantly.
The war horses were pinned to the ground by the terrifying pressure and eventually became unable to move.
Qin Lang began to expand his body continuously. He was planning to make it big, so he started to spread from the entire Yanping County. His huge body as a black dragon continued to expand, and then covered the entire Beiyang area. All the people could not see the sun in the sky. They could only see a black object moving, and then saw the scales of the black dragon revealing its pressure.
This was the first time that people in this world saw a real god on a large scale. A huge black dragon was flying and covering the entire Beiyang, causing all the people who saw it to kneel down on the ground in an instant and call out to the Lord Dragon King loudly.
Song Deqiu, who was standing on the altar, was already stunned. He looked at the huge monster in the sky and for a moment he didn't know where this thing came from. Is this the power of God?
King Gao Zhan of Qi was already lying on the carriage frame, with his head raised high, looking at the huge black dragon in the sky in disbelief. He had lived for so many years and had never imagined that there were real dragons in this world.
Unfortunately, the Dragon King did not send down the divine rain. He floated in the sky, accompanied by the dragon's roar. All the people were trembling because they felt the dragon's anger.
It was the King of Qi! The King of Qi had just cursed the Dragon King! The King of Qi had cursed such a horrifying thing!!!
The low thunder was torn apart by lightning, and when a ray of light gradually shone in the sky, everyone couldn't help but look up, and saw the huge black dragon head, which was bigger than the entire Yanping County, looking down at the ground. Everyone even met the golden dragon eyes that were full of divinity.
The next moment, the entire Beiyang area heard the voice of the divine dragon Canglang.
"The human race's King of Qi, Gao Zhan, has harmed my followers, tarnished my reputation, and destroyed my sacrifices. Today, I, Canglang, the Dragon King of the West Sea, inform the heavens that Daxia will perish. I will destroy King Qi and punish him with heavenly thunder!!!"
The Dragon King's divine voice contained no anger, but it made people inexplicably shudder, especially the people of Beiyang, who all had the Dragon King's voice in their minds.
The Northland was the fiefdom of the King of Qi, and the King of Qi actually insulted a god!
And the Dragon King actually said that Daxia was going to perish... was going to perish...
Before the people had time to be surprised by all this, they heard even more terrifying thunder. This time it was not the kind that makes people tremble, but white lightning that fell straight from the sky and hit King Gao Zhan of Qi in full view of all the people in Yanping County.
No one had time to react. Even the King of Qi was so stunned by the huge dragon head that he was struck by lightning and turned into ashes. His carriage and the troops were all turned into black charcoal.
The people of Yanping County who were kneeling on the ground could only smell the smell of burning in the air, mixed with a strange meaty aroma, which made everyone tremble even more. Especially when they were close to the thunder, the huge thunder almost made all the people's ears buzz and they could not hear any sound.
Song Deqiu also opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn't hear his own voice.
But the voice of God sounded in his mind again.
"From now on, Beiyang is the land of my Dragon King Canglang! All the people of the world are under my protection! The people of the north have escaped from Daxia. Today, King Gao Zhan of Qi spoke outrageously and destroyed my sacrifices. I will burn his Daxia palace as a punishment from heaven!!! Any member of the Daxia royal family who sets foot in Beiyang will be punished by heavenly thunder!"
That's right, Qin Lang's body continued to expand, and half of his body was hidden in the sky. He actually went directly to the capital of Daxia, Jingcheng. The moment Qin Lang opened his mouth, this sentence rang involuntarily in the minds of the people in the entire Jingcheng.
Then, before the people and officials could react, they saw purple lightning and fire falling from the sky in the imperial palace in the center of the capital. This scene was so shocking to the officials of Daxia that they realized it belatedly and fled.
However, when the purple lightning and fire fell into the palace, it burned everywhere in an instant. Even the palace servants were scared and ran away. The empress, eunuchs and palace maids in the palace did not care about anything else at this time and wanted to escape. The emperor was the same.
When they heard the terrifying sound that came from nowhere, they saw thunder and fire falling from the sky, like a punishment from heaven. They were immediately pulled away by the guards and fled in a hurry.
By the time many officials and guards finally rescued the emperor from the palace of Daxia, the palace had already been burned into ruins, with not a single piece of soil left, which was a creepy sight.
On this day, the Dragon King Canglang appeared out of nowhere with his dominance, allowing the people of Daxia to truly understand the existence of gods.
From this day on, the land of Beiyang was no longer under the management of Daxia. With the Dragon King entrenched here, who would dare to act rashly?
The people of Yanping County were kneeling on the ground and trembling. They hated King Gao Zhan of Qi even more and were afraid that the Dragon King would vent his anger on them. They all begged the Dragon King to send down rain.
A lot of faith values increased rapidly, and Qin Lang finally brought down the rain in Yanping County.
As the divine rain fell, everything in Yanping County revived. Even at the city gate, the civilians who had previously blocked the soldiers' path to offer sacrifices had their wounds healed by the divine rain. The wounds healed completely, and the pain was gone, as if they had never been injured...
How could such a miracle be accomplished by anyone other than a god?
Before Qin Lang left, all the people of Yanping County knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, loudly thanking the Dragon King in the rain, and each one of them was reborn...
