The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 107 Animal Control 

River Yu, pointing at Daniel’s nose, cursed furiously, “You country bumpkin, you dared to destroy my centipedes? Today, I’ll make you wish you were dead!” 

“Is the centipede curse that Joseph suffered your work as well?” Daniel Inquired. 

“Which Joseph?” 

“The head of the first family of New York, Joseph!” 

“Was the curse on him also lifted by you?” 

“Of course.” 

“No wonder! I thought it was strange. After placing the curse on Joseph, I spread the news. The Matthews should have known that I had arrived in New York. No one else should have been able to remove his curse but me, yet they never came to seek me out! Was it you, country bumpkin, who spoiled my plans?” NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

“Since you’ve admitted it, I’m not going to beat around the bush. Today, I will settle the debt you owe me in full!” 

“We definitely need to end this, but not on your terms–on my terms!” 

River Yu took a bamboo flute, no longer than a pinky finger, from his waist. It was an enchanted flute capable of controlling insects. He placed the flute to his lips and began to play. 

Woo–woo… 

woo–woo.. 

A strange flute melody filled the air. Its sound wasn’t loud, but the pitch was so peculiar and the notes so unique that it was piercingly uncomfortable to listen to. It was as though someone were jabbing your eardrums with needles, so painful it felt as if they might be perforated. 

Yet to Daniel, this sound had little effect. The noise from the flute was merely unpleasant to him, nothing 

more 

As the repellent call of the flute sounded, creatures began to stir, Rats began scampering out from holes in manhole covers, hissing as they emerged. Cockroaches and various insects crawled out from their hideouts, and even a few venomous snakes slithered from the roadside bushes. 

“Your flute is quite something! Even in the city, it can summon so many venomous bugs and snakes. I bet if we were in the mountains, it could call out all the poisonous creatures within a ten–mile radius, right?” 

Daniel’s observation surprised River Yu. His eyes widened in disbelief. “You can recognize the purpose of this object?” 

“It’s just a flute that can manipulate animals, nothing new. Many curse masters possess such an item. To them, it’s like the sword to a swordsman. Without it, how would a curse master collect venomous creatures? If they cannot gather poisonous bugs, they cannot craft their curses.

His response left River Yu puzzled, prompting him to ask, “Could it be that you’re also a curse master?” 

“No! I’m not a curse master; I’m merely a country doctor!” 

This assurance from Daniel set River Yu’s mind at ease. If this country boy were a curse master, that would mean he had a master. River Yu didn’t want to risk angering a powerful curse master just to deal with this country bumpkin. If Daniel’s master turned out to be a formidable curse master, River Yu 

certainly didn’t want to make an enemy of him for no reason. 

Fortunately, it seemed this country boy was just a rural doctor! 

Now River Yu wouldn’t have to worry about the repercussions of dealing with Daniel if he was only a doctor.
