Chapter 877: Don't Provoke The Loli Dragon

(MC POV)

My disciples really went all out huh… I could see some people half buried in the ground and even some hanging unconscious on the branches of trees a distance away.

There's even a few people that seemed to have had their bottoms whipped to the point that their pants were torn off. No prizes to guessing who was responsible for that.

With the path to the tower cleared, my disciples and I made our way towards the entrance.

Reaching the double doors of the tower, I tried to push it open only to realise the door wasn't budging. It seems like the people inside had gone as far as to barricade the door to prevent people from entering too. Just how desperate were they?

I increased my strength and pushed again, this time forcing the doors open and also shoving the barricade back. A loud crash emanated from inside as the barricade toppled over, causing everyone in the tower to turn their attention to us.

I ignored the stares and turned to my disciples, "Feel free to read anything you want inside here. There's a Law in place that will teleport anyone that uses violence out of here but I changed it so that it doesn't affect us. If anyone bothers you, feel free to slap their faces."

Tsuki clasped her hands together, "Aniue, so cool…"

Not sure what's so cool about that but ok.

My disciples soon dispersed to explore the rest of the tower, each of them trying to find tomes that would help them in their cultivation. That left me with Iris, Cai Hong and the two foxes again.

"Papa! Books!" Cai Hong squealed, pointing at the rows upon rows of bookshelves that filled the entire tower.

"Haha, does Cai Hong want to explore too?"

The little dragon nodded her head excitedly, "Can I, Papa?"

I smiled and nodded at her, prompting Cai Hong to run off to look for a book that she was interested in.

I followed along a short distance behind her, weaving my way through the crowd of Practitioners that were currently staring at me.

Most of them were huddled around the few tables scattered around the tower, all of them busy with the copying of the various books they had taken down from the shelves around them. Behind these scribes were Practitioners who guarded them from the Practitioners of other Sects that were trying to sabotage them.

I have to give it to them though, they really got creative with their tricks in order to circumvent the Law of no violence in place.

Aside from the curses and hexes they might use to trap each other, they would go around just being a general nuisance to try and get the other party riled up enough to want to fight or even just to distract them.

Like that guy over there by the corner with his Erhu, he had purposely set himself there to play random notes while screaming at the top of his lungs so those scribes couldn't write in peace. What's more, the Practitioners guarding the scribes would keep trying to create silencing inscriptions to silence him but that guy would keep breaking them down to continue his screaming.

What I'm trying to say is, this place is basically a madhouse just without violence.

Cai Hong ran up to one of the tables nearby, only to have her way blocked by one of the guards there.

She pouted up at him and pointed a finger at one of the books on the floor, "Book!"

The guard didn't even look at where she was pointing and just remained standing there silently with his arms crossed.

Cai Hong tried to step around him but he moved again to stand in her way, hiding the book she had wanted from her sight.

"Come on now, it's just a book that your scribes aren't even copying yet. I'm also pretty sure that's a storybook and not something related to cultivation secrets," I argued, stepping up behind my little dragon.

The guard scowled at me, "Hmph, to think you would even bring a little kid here. Do you not care what would happen to her?"

"What I do is not your business. Now do step aside while I'm still being nice."

He ignored me and turned his attention to Cai Hong instead, "Hey little girl, your daddy obviously doesn't like you. He brought you to this dangerous place so that he can throw you somewhere else and go home without you."

Cai Hong puffed her cheeks, "Papa is best Papa! You bad uncle!"

"Ha! Do you see any other kids around here? No. That's because all the other kids were eaten by monsters already and your 'papa' is going to feed you to them too!"

"Grrrr! Papa protect Cai Hong from bad monsters!"

Oh my gosh, she actually growled at him, could she be any cuter? I just want to scoop her up and cuddle her!

Oh, I know what this guy is doing obviously, he's trying to rile up Cai Hong and make her upset so that she would either run away or hit him which would result in her getting barred from the tower. Too bad for him, neither of those is going to happen.

The guard snorted at her, "Oh look around you little girl, this is not a playground. Your 'papa' is going to let you stay here and get eaten by the bad monsters. The moment you touch a book, the bad monsters will come out and your 'papa' is going to disappear too."

"Nnnn!!! Bad man! 'Bwall bwuster'!!"

Cai Hong cocked back her fist and punched straight into the guy's crotch, something that I had totally not seen coming at all.

Despite still being a cute loli dragon, she's still a cosmic dragon. That's why all of the guard's defensive inscriptions were shattered without much effort and the punch most definitely connected to his most vulnerable place.

I'm not sure if I heard it right but I think there was a cracking sound too.

The man doubled over in pain and fell onto the ground, allowing Cai Hong to walk past him in a huff and pick up the book before running back to me.

"Papa! Papa! Book! Book!" She squealed, totally ignoring the guy she had just punched in the balls.

His companions were all gaping at their fallen comrade in shock, more because of the fact that Cai Hong had not been kicked out of the tower than the fact that their brethren got his balls punched.

The guard stood back up on unsteady feet, glaring at me, "What… What did you do?! How is she still here?! You little bi--"

I slapped him across the face, "Language."

He held his face in surprise, "You… How did you… You fu--"

I slapped him again, "I said language, young man."

He roared in rage at me, lifting his fist to try and punch me.

The moment he did, however, a glow enveloped his body before he popped out of existence right in front of us, most probably being deposited outside of the tower.

I looked back down at Cai Hong who was looking up at me with sparkly eyes, "Papa, book?"

I chuckled, "Yes, yes. Let's find a place where I can read that book for you, ok?"

"Yayyyy~"

She's so cute.

I wonder how the rest of my disciples are doing?
