This time's conflict, strictly speaking, both sides were at fault.
Of course, the Black Dragon, who struck first, was certainly unreasonable.
But if you think about it differently, if Ning Fan hadn't blasted the Black Dragon's left eye, perhaps there might have been room for reconciliation and the conflict might not have escalated.
After all, the Black Dragon wasn't intentionally trying to kill; in a way, it was a form of self-defense.
It was struck down to the mortal world by the Ancient Divine Lineage, confused before its death, not even clear if it died or not.
When it discovered Divine Power within itself—power that only Divine Spirits possess,
the awakened Black Dragon suddenly struck, which was only natural, fearing it had fallen into the hands of those Ancient Divine Spirits again, as it shared an enmity with the Ancestral God Lineage, naturally calling for resistance.
While it's understandable why the Black Dragon lashed out and even used the Forbidden Spell.
