As a little Panlong born after the immeasurable calamity, you are far inferior to those naturally born descendants of the Ancestral Dragons, both in talent and in lineage.
Just look at those True Dragons. They've already made it big in the new Heavenly Court as Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, while you have only just defeated your older Chi Dragon brother and extracted a trace of True Dragon blood from his essence to strengthen yourself.
Dreaming of becoming a five-clawed golden dragon one day, you spend every day either killing dragons or on your way to kill dragons. What you covet most is the True Dragon blood of the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas.
Then one day, you hear that outside Chentang Pass, a little boy with his hair tied in two knots raised towering waves, killed the Third Prince of the East Sea Dragon King, and pulled out his dragon sinew, but tossed aside the rest of his flesh and blood.
Your eyes light up in an instant.
Oh my heavens, a kind soul has come to feed you!
He doesn't want that dragon meat over there? And what about the dragon blood, bones, and horns? He doesn't want those either?!
What a good person! A living, breathing saint!
As long as you devour this True Dragon's remains, you can become a real True Dragon!
Just as the East Sea Dragon King discovers his beloved son is missing and flies into a rage, demanding an explanation from Li Jing at Chentang Pass...
Just as Nezha stands at the pass with a precious sword, declaring that he will cut his flesh to repay his father and sever his bones to repay his mother...
You, now a True Dragon, disguise yourself as the Third Prince and smile faintly at the stunned, speechless crowd.
"A misunderstanding. It's all a misunderstanding."
A crazy female ghost and dragon-meat connoisseur heroine x an unruly, rebellious troublemaker of a male lead from the Heavenly Court
