The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 872

Daniel’s words left Dog utterly stunned.

“You bastard, you actually know about Soul Takers?”

“Of course I do! Not only do I know them, but I’m also friends with them! The Soul Takers you summoned? They're my buddies. Whatever I tell them to do, they’ll do it. If you don’t believe me, let me show you!”

With a sweeping motion of his hand, Daniel called out to the charging Soul Takers. “Brothers, you’re headed the wrong way! You shouldn’t be coming after me; you’re supposed to go to Dog! Look at all those souls beneath his backside! Hurry up and rush over there to devour them all!”

At Daniel's command, the Soul Takers immediately switched directions, diving toward Dog instead.

Like starving wild dogs, they began to feast on the souls beneath Dog’s seat.

As Dog sat in mid-air atop the pillar made of souls that he had conjured, he felt it beginning to wobble and sway dangerously under the onslaught of the Soul Takers.

Seeing Dog tremble atop the shaky pillar, Daniel couldn’t help himself. “How’s it going, Dog? How’s that ride treating you?”

“Bastard, you... you stop that!” Dog shouted, struggling to maintain his balance.

Dog, perched on top, suddenly found himself tumbling down. He hit the ground with a thud, dazed and howling in distress.

“Ow! You bastard! You’ve done it now! You’ve killed me! Don’t you know anything about respecting your elders? You’re such a scoundrel! If you die, you won’t even qualify to descend to hell! Frankly, your soul is better suited for me to turn into an evil spirit!”

Just then, a light sparked in Dog’s murky old eyes as he remembered something.

“You bastard, you came with the police! Are you here to help rescue the hostage?”
