Chapter 196: Chapter 196: My Name is Dashiell
One person and one Flood Dragon were still in a stalemate on this side, while on the other side, Director Clark, Sebastian Carew, Ariel Zimmerman, and the villagers finally rushed over.
Seeing no accidents had occurred at the scene, Spencer Atkins and the cameraman, who had previously passed out, also awakened with the help of others.
Everyone breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Director Clark noticed Scarlett Jennings on the other side, still talking to a young boy, and couldn’t help but step forward,
"Scarlett, who is this?"
Scarlett dared not reveal the boy’s true identity. Seeing the cameraman coming over, she repeated her previous statement,
"This is a younger brother I know. He... happened to be nearby and saw me live streaming, so he came over to find me."
Director Clark glanced at the boy, then at the yellow weasel in the boy’s hand, and seemed to understand something. He leaned closer to Scarlett’s ear and whispered,
"Is he... the kind of younger brother like your junior disciple?"
Scarlett was a true master, a fact Director Clark had already accepted. And now, this boy who suddenly appeared and easily caught six yellow weasels didn’t seem to be an ordinary individual.
Naturally, he suspected that this boy might also belong to the Mystical Sect.
After all, ordinary families wouldn’t let a child run around outside in the middle of the night.
Scarlett couldn’t think of a better explanation for Director Clark’s guess, so she simply acknowledged it.
"...Mm."
Director Clark asked in a low voice, but the microphone still picked it up.
The live broadcast audience, upon hearing that this handsome boy was actually Scarlett Jennings’ junior disciple, instantly forgot their previous fears and excitement. They warmly shouted [Little Junior Brother] in the comments!
Seeing the entire village stirred up by the earlier commotion, Scarlett decided to bring the boy over.
Everyone almost immediately noticed the yellow weasels in the boy’s hands.
It wasn’t just the strength; the ability to hold three at once was quite remarkable.
Evander Simpson looked somewhat serious, and the village chief and other villagers were even more incredulous.
"This... Could all the recent troubles in the village be caused by these yellow weasels?"
Yellow weasels, known as Huang Pi Zi in the north, are also part of the five immortals representing the Yellow Gate.
Also known as Huang Daxian.
[Senior brother’s flag truly came to be.]
[It’s Huang Daxian!]
[Looks like an ordinary yellow weasel, didn’t Scarlett Jennings say it’s a demon?]
[If it’s deliberately causing trouble in the village, it must have already awakened spiritual wisdom! Can’t judge just by appearances!]
[Isn’t it possible that these are just the small fries?]
[Oh, so there’s really a Huang Daxian behind this?]
[It’s said that yellow weasels hold grudges. The villagers must have done something to provoke them.]
[Yes, it’s crucial not to kill yellow weasels randomly. These six yellow weasels must be released back.]
As the audience continued discussing, Scarlett Jennings already responded to the village chief’s earlier question.
"More or less."
She didn’t mention it might be awakened creatures. It’s better for the villagers to think that the yellow weasels came down the mountain for revenge than to know they’ve caught the attention of awakened creatures.
The boy beside her added, "Not just these six, several more ran away earlier."
He was just too lazy to catch them all.
Seeing him catch the yellow weasels, the village chief, although unaware of where this boy came from, was sure he wasn’t a simple character, thus speaking more politely.
"What should we do with these yellow weasels? Will they come back to cause trouble if we release them?"
But without releasing them, the village chief worried about more retaliation.
After all, if a yellow weasel can’t take revenge itself, it will pass it on to the next generation.
The village subsisted by the mountain, and offending the animals there would create endless trouble.
If possible, the village hoped to coexist peacefully with them.
"Lock them up first," Scarlett Jennings said, "I’ll release them back in the mountains tomorrow morning."
Mainly to find the culprit directing these yellow weasels.
With a few cubs at hand, she wasn’t afraid the opponent would stay hidden.
After a tiring night, Amber Livingston and Spencer Atkins were shocked. Director Clark specially assigned people to send them back to rest.
The others escorted Scarlett Jennings back to Uncle Lin’s house. Those six yellow weasels needed a place to be locked up, and her brother, being this capable, definitely needed a place nearby to stay.
"By the way, Scarlett, what’s your brother’s name?"
Asked Director Clark from the side.
Upon hearing this, Scarlett took a moment but didn’t immediately answer. Instead, she turned to the boy holding the yellow weasel, indicating with her eyes for him to speak.
The boy immediately lifted his chin, proudly and solemnly announcing his name,
"My name is Dashiell!"
The two syllables, powerful and resonant.
Scarlett couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her mouth.
This little Flood Dragon really had ambitious aspirations.
Legend has it that dragons birth nine sons.
The ninth son was named "Dashiell."
It was said that Dragon Transformation was the ultimate goal of all Flood Dragons, and now she started to believe it.
She wondered if misusing the name of a Divine Beast for oneself would be taboo.
Without commenting on Dashiell’s name, Scarlett Jennings pretended not to know who Dashiell was.
Director Clark complimented the boy’s name, "Jiaotu, what a nice name."
After locking up the six yellow weasels and sending the villagers away, the crew closed the live broadcast and let everyone go back to wash up and rest.
Dashiell’s room was arranged on the first floor, right next to the little storage room where the yellow weasels were kept.
Seeing him looking around the room, Scarlett said,
"Leave on your own tomorrow morning. I can’t let you approach him, and pestering won’t help."
Hearing her threatening to drive him away again, Dashiell felt somewhat resentful and aggrieved.
To avoid scaring anyone, he exerted great effort to shed the potential revealing scales on his body, using a hat to cover the horns that he couldn’t hide.
A Flood Dragon descended from the mountain to find her after several days.
Finally, he saw Scarlett Jennings’ message on his phone, traveled hundreds of miles overnight to find her.
And even helped her.
Yet she only wanted to drive him away!
Although he wanted to explode his scales, for his Dragon Transformation, he held back and told Scarlett Jennings,
"Are you sure you want to drive me away? There’s a powerful yellow weasel in the mountain. You and that little Taoist can’t handle it. If you keep me, I can still help you!"
Scarlett Jennings just glanced at him, "Do you want to reveal yourself and fight with it?"
Dashiell glared at her, "Rude! Violent! You think we only know how to fight?! I’ve told you, I’m a good Flood Dragon, I don’t harm people, nor do I fight recklessly!"
Scarlett looked at him, feeling a bit hesitant.
After two contacts, she was already sure he wasn’t an Evil Flood Dragon. She kept her distance only to avoid too much entanglement of karma.
A demon like him, who absorbed nature’s spiritual energy for cultivation and transformation, could easily get tangled in karma and find it hard to escape.
But thinking about it, the fact he appeared here tonight and saved Amber Livingston and others from the yellow weasels, wasn’t that a kind of karma?
She was already indebted to him.
Driving him away wouldn’t make much sense now.
"Fine."
Scarlett Jennings eventually relented, "You can stay for now. Help resolve the matter with the yellow deity in the mountain tomorrow, and then I’ll consider how to arrange you."
Hearing this, Dashiell immediately perked up, visibly proud and pleased,
"All right!"
He didn’t forget to proudly add,
"Rest assured, I can be quite useful."
