The Black Dragon

chapter 40

A new problem.

"Oh but look who we have visiting today"

"HEHEH, how long emperor"

"It's been a while since your last visit, Dragon King, how are things going there?"

"Mm, a few problems, but nothing that can't be solved, don't worry," exclaimed the dragon king, taking a seat followed by the emperor.

"I see, some tea" he asked and he nodded.

"It seems like everything is going well here."

"Yes, thanks to the gods, half of the population has already returned to their old homes, but I am still worried about the robberies that occur in these times, the mercenaries are increasingly taking up the matter."

"Need help?".

"We are not aware of this problem but if it gets worse I will ask to borrow one of the five dragons" emperor exclaimed and he nodded.

"So how's Wei Wuxian going, he still doesn't remember anything?"

"I haven't sent a soldier to talk to Dr. Wen, but there is no result, we still don't know anything about what happened after time stopped for us," commented the emperor.

"Mm I hope he recovers soon, young Lan wangji has been visiting him often but he doesn't recognize him either."

"...."

"You have to be patient, I'm sure it's a matter of time."

"A matter of time... two years have passed, Dragon King, and we still don't know clearly what happened, and Dilong's accomplices disappeared like rats in the sewers, we don't know anything about them and at any moment they could attack us as revenge" said the emperor taking a sip of his cup of tea while the dragon king thought that the emperor was right, after Dilong's death everything disappeared, the few demons that were left alive returned to the underworld while Xue yang disappeared after having defeated by Lan xichen and the other four accomplices also left no traces. The five dragons prowled the areas for about two weeks, but they were nowhere to be found; it was as if the earth had swallowed them.

For that reason they wanted to know everything about Dilong and Wei Wuxian was an alternative after all a hundred years ago Wei Ying had worked with Dilong and he could know if he had another base that they didn't know about or if he had more people working secretly, but With Wei Wuxian's lack of memory they couldn't do anything and the only thing left to do was secure the entire territory.

"The royal guard patrols at night and so far they haven't seen anything suspicious, maybe they just gave up and are hiding like rats" said the emperor.

"Maybe, but what if they're making a plan to attack again."

"Tcg without their king I don't think they would do anything more productive."

"What if someone else took the throne."

"You believe that....".

"Yes Xue yang."

"Mm it's a bit not believable but considering that he was Dilong's most trusted confidant it could be" he commented and then in silence he continued until the doors of the room burst open to reveal a soldier rushing in and kneeling on the floor. mode of greeting this one is out of breath he seemed to have run.

"Your Majesty...I have an important message from the north" said the soldier and the emperor stood next to the dragon king and he took out a letter and the emperor gave it to him, he took it and opened it and then became very serious.

"Tell Commander Perck's troop to prepare to leave" the emperor shouted and then looked at the dragon king.

"Yes, your majesty!" the soldier said and ran away.

"What happened?".

"Someone has killed the northern troops," he exclaimed seriously.

"How is that possible? But it was another troop."

"No, when it perished, it was only the work of two people," exclaimed him and the dragon king Bacillus.

"You think they are..."

"If I'm sure they are already making their move, they are finally coming out of the sewers" commented the emperor leaving the room, the dragon king did the same, he would not be left behind either, he would help in every way possible after all, his kingdom would also be affected.

Meanwhile in the mountains there was a young man playing a beautiful black flute being listened to by a little boy who was playing with the beautiful flowers that surrounded the entire place, the beautiful young man who dressed in black every time he played that flute small memories cherish in his memory, but he preferred to keep it a secret from Dr. Wen.

The memories were odd, the first thing he saw with his eyes was an old woman who was playing next to him, then he saw a man with white hair with a gloomy smile who accompanied him in a dark cave, and then he saw a beautiful young man in white robes, but his face was blurry, he couldn't see it well and that frustrated him, he became so immersed in his memories when suddenly he heard a scream and then he opened his eyes to see how a hooded man was holding the child with a knife.

"Master Wei, help me.."

"A-yuan" he exclaimed trying to get closer but this scream.

"Don't come close or I'll kill him" Wei Wuxian backed away with slow steps.

"Who are you?" He asked and he smiled.

"How long ago Wei Wuxian that the thing about you losing your memory was true, but that doesn't matter anymore, you will come with us anyway" he exclaimed.

"I'm not going anywhere and let go of the child."

"I won't, but if you go with me I'll let him go, what do you say?"

"....." Wei Wuxian looked to his sides and didn't see anyone else, but his sense of smell told him that there were five more men hiding somewhere, if he resisted the boy was going to be hurt, and if he used his flute escaping with the child wasn't going to work either, he had the advantage in numbers, he was sure it was going to be the end for both of them, so he thought that maybe it would be better to surrender without resisting or at least pretend.

"Okay, but let the child go, they don't want him right."

"HAHA you're right, hey, come out" the man in black shouted and five men came out from their hiding places. Wei Wuxian was right.

"Sir, are you sure this is Wei Wuxian?"

"He looks like a woman haha" the other said laughing.

"There is no doubt, it is Wei Wuxian who would ever forget his face," commented the man in black. He shouted and then he ran towards A-yuan but the others approached. "Son of a bitch" he shouted but Wei Wuxian knocked him to the ground and hit the other and then he approached the man in black and A-yuan kicked him in the groin and pulled away from the man. Wei Wuxian and A-yuan both ran trying to get as far away from everyone as possible.

"Shit, that brat knows how to fight" he yelled as the others stood up.

"That Wei wuxian had a hidden knife...you Mey come out of your hiding place immediately and come help" he exclaimed and a hooded man came down from the tree, this was a tall young man with beautiful features, his skin was brunette and his hair were blood red.

"HEHE sir, a child kicked him," he said, laughing.

"Shit stop laughing and go after those two, you too!" He shouted and the young man along with three more men came out from behind Wei Wuxian.

"Damn Xue Yang, what do you want it for?"
