Chapter 138: Chapter 129: I Really Didn’t Think! No, I Think My Husband Can Have It!
After listening to the Old Blind Man’s words, Yuan Youbai was stunned.
Could it be that the Holy Land of Central State wanted to snatch him up as their Saint Heir?
He had some understanding of the Holy Land.
The Four Great Sacred Lands of Central State held a transcendent status above all other forces.
The Holy Lands possessed eighty percent of Central State’s resources!
Other forces could only divide the remaining twenty percent among themselves.
Under such a cycle, the power of the Holy Lands had grown unshakeable over countless years.
Turning his head towards the young man sitting there, he saw him smiling lightly and nodding, not denying what the Old Blind Man had said.
“Then… if I follow him, would I be able to avenge my mother?”
Yuan Youbai clenched his teeth with suppressed hatred the moment he thought of those people conspiring against his mother.
“I think there should be no problem.”
“And… before I left Central State, I heard that the True Dragon… that is, your mother, might not have fallen.”
“Instead, after killing a Sage, she fled into the Endless Sea. Her life or death is unknown, but there’s still a chance she’s alive.”
The Old Blind Man pondered for a moment before revealing news that brought Yuan Youbai to tears of joy.
“Mother… is still alive?”
“You’re not lying to me?”
“Mother wasn’t killed by them?”
Yuan Youbai moved forward as though she desperately wanted to grab the Old Blind Man’s clothes and interrogate him.
“The old man has no need to lie to you.”
“But don’t think about returning to Central State now.”
“Do you think the Sages of Central State are only looking for you to domesticate you as a mount?”
“What’s most important is using you to lure out that True Dragon…”
“Staying by Little Friend Gu’s side not only ensures your safety but also keeps your mother out of harm’s way. Maybe in ten or eight years, after she’s recovered from her injuries, she might even return from the Endless Sea.”
The Old Blind Man gently stroked his white beard as he spoke slowly.
Since he had decided to lend a hand to Little Friend Gu and create good karma for himself, he didn’t mind sharing everything he knew with this young one.
As expected, after hearing his words, Yuan Youbai was frowning and lowering her head, her small hands clutching the hem of her clothes, seeming to make some kind of decision.
The others weren’t in a hurry and patiently waited for her to decide.
After all, she was unlikely to choose to leave.
A moment later.
Yuan Youbai looked up at the Old Blind Man and seriously asked, “You came to find me, you surely have a Beast Taming Ring, right?”
“Of course.” The Old Blind Man nodded.
At the same time, he casually took out a small leather collar from the Space Ring, engraved with various complex Inscriptions. The item could enlarge or shrink and was extremely valuable.
Once a Demon Beast is fitted with the Beast Taming Ring, making it unable to resist, and a drop of the person’s blood is applied, the Inscriptions of the ring will fuse into the Demon Beast’s body, giving the blood donor control over its life and death!
Yuan Youbai took the Beast Taming Ring and, with her head lowered, approached Gu Changge, who was sitting in front of the stone table.
With a ‘thud,’ she knelt to the ground.@@novelbin@@
Her hands held up the Beast Taming Ring high.
“Little Bai is willing to acknowledge a master and will not resist the imprinting of the Beast Taming Ring.”
Having said that, she bit her lip hard, but there wasn’t the slightest waver.
This was not only her way to survive but perhaps her mother’s as well.
She had thought her mother was dead, and if she were to be caught, she’d rather face death.
She would definitely not choose to become a mount for those who murdered her mother!
But now, knowing that her mother might still be alive, she no longer wished to die. And she couldn’t fall into the hands of those people, becoming a bargaining chip against her mother!
This man, at least based on their brief interaction today, shouldn’t be a bad person.
At least, he wasn’t as bad as those who plotted against her mother!
If she had to choose, she would choose Gu Changge…
“…”
Looking at the white-haired girl kneeling before him, Gu Changge did not reach out to take the Beast Taming Ring.
Silence lingered.
Just as Yuan Youbai nervously prepared to continue pleading for his shelter.
He finally spoke, “The Young Master has already said, I don’t intend to make you a mount.”
As he said this, he also took the Beast Taming Ring and tossed it back to the Old Blind Man.
This action somewhat stunned the Old Blind Man.
What exactly was this Gu Family kid up to?
A Dragon Clan mount offered to him on a silver platter, and he doesn’t want it?
Once this Dragon Clan member grows up, it could be a great asset, possibly even superior in potential to an old Ninth Grade like himself!
Yuan Youbai immediately burst into desperate tears.
“Youbai will do anything…”
“Please don’t drive me away.”
When she raised her head to look at Gu Changge, her eyes were full of entreaty.
This was her only hope, her last lifeline.
If he was unwilling to keep her, how would she be able to escape the clutches of those great powers of the Human Clan?
“Husband…” Liu Qingqing felt so sympathetic that she wanted to speak out in persuasion.
Seeing that they had misunderstood, Gu Changge continued, “No one said you have to leave.”
“Why insist on becoming some kind of mount?”
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingqing was slightly stunned, then as if suddenly realizing something.
Looking at her husband, she thought she probably wasn’t wrong…
So she resolutely spoke up, “Husband means to keep you as a child bride.”
The Old Blind Man also froze at these words, thinking to himself, good lad… is that what he’s been waiting for?
A Beast Taming Ring could control the body of a Demon Beast and dictate life and death.
But this young man… he wanted to completely devour her, to potentially take her heart as well!?
“A child bride?”
“Not just a ploy to deceive them?”
Yuan Youbai still had large teardrops hanging from her reddened eyes and couldn’t quite react for a moment.
“Really?” All she could do was look towards Gu Changge, hopeful yet fearful, afraid he might refuse.
Gu Changge glanced at his wife and felt somewhat numb.
When had he mentioned wanting to keep this young one as a child bride!?
