Even before Jiang Ming could speak, the beast spat out some curses. However, he was still mumbling inarticulately. Those who did not know better would think that it was just an ordinary scream.
Yuan Hehe listened carefully, but he could not hear a single word.
He did not know whether to laugh or cry. âYou said it so urgently that I donât understand.â
The beast coughed and spoke more clearly. Then, he said, âMy spiritual energy pearl is definitely real. Iâm the second disciple of the ghost master. He personally passed it on to me!â
âHuh? Another disciple of the ghost master?â
Sikong Wuyuan smiled and turned to Yuan Hehe. âYuan Hehe, your master seems to have many disciples!â
Yuan Heheâs face turned red before returning to normal.
He frowned and looked at the beast. âWhy would my master take in a cursed beast as his disciple? Are you lying to me? Or did you hear what we said earlier?â
Unexpectedly, the beast was instantly furious.
He clenched his fist and hammered the stone beside him. He glared at Yuan Hehe and said, âIâm telling the truth. If you donât believe me, you can ask the snake king. I told her everything about my master.â
The stone immediately split into pieces, which also represented his anger.
Seeing that his words did not seem to be fake, Jiang Ming did not doubt him. Instead, he looked at Yuan Hehe for confirmation.
âRight now, the only person who knows ghost master the best is Yuan Hehe.
Weâll know once we ask him and verify it.â
Yuan Hehe pondered as he sized up the beast.
He had already told them about the ghost masterâs living habits, so he really did not say anything else.
Although he had such a master, his master only appeared when he taught him and did not reveal much to him.
However, when he went down the mountain, his master did give him a gift. It was not a spiritual energy pearl, but something else.
Speaking of this, it was normal for his master to give him a spiritual energy pearl. After all, it was his masterâs tradition.
âIf you have anything else to ask, just ask. However, after verification, you can consider what I said. If it really doesnât work, I can show you a real spiritual energy pearl. It will save you the trouble of saying that this spiritual energy pearl is fake.â
âThen what else is there to consider?â Yuan Hehe waved his hand. âJust take out the spiritual energy pearl. I donât care if youâre my masterâs disciple.â
âAre you also the ghost masterâs disciple?â The beast narrowed his eyes and shook his head frantically. âThatâs impossible. Itâs absolutely impossible.â Yuan Hehe could not help but feel displeased. He also clenched his fists.
âWhat nonsense are you talking about? How is that impossible? Let me tell you, donât make me angry. If it werenât for the fact that youâre chained up, I wouldnât have bothered to argue with you.â
The beast stuck out his tongue like a child. âl donât need you to argue with me. I donât care if youâre the ghost masterâs disciple or not. After all, Iâm not negotiating with you.â
He turned his head and faced Jiang Ming with joy in his eyes.
âThis man is the chosen one. This chain is nothing to him. He is such a blessed person. He doesnât need to take the initiative to give anything to others. The others will give it to him.â
However, when he thought of this, he smiled bitterly.
He originally thought that he was the chosen one, but who knew that in the end, it was all for naught. Fortunately, his master had accompanied him for many years.
Otherwise, he would really have suffered a huge blow and ended up suffering.
Sensing the beastâs gaze, Jiang Ming pointed at himself and said uncertainly, âAre you talking about me?â
The beast immediately nodded, more excited than anyone else.
âIâm afraid you donât know who you are, but I can tell at a glance that youâre the chosen one of this world,â he said.
Sikong Wuyuan could not help but feel curious.
âHow did you know that Jiang Ming is the chosen one? Even the people before him thought that Jiang Ming was the chosen one because of certain things.â
âYouâre right.â The beast patted his chest. âI was once a spirit pet of a chosen one. However, he died a long time ago. And now, a new chosen one has appeared. Iâm very excited. chosen one, please treat me as your spiritual pet.â He had many thoughts in his mind.
When he followed the previous chosen one, he obtained a lot of spiritual energy. If he followed this chosen one, he would definitely be able to obtain more spiritual energy and break through his bottleneck.
At that time, if he outlived the chosen one, he might become the new chosen one and even control the world of cultivation.
âNo way!â Jiang Ming thought in his heart, but he didnât even look at the beast. He said directly, âNo way.â
He felt that it was better for this person to be a human. Why should he be a pet? As a pet, he had to be controlled by others.
Since this person was willing to be a pet, he would definitely be able to obtain some benefits. He did not want to be tricked.
Then, he said, âBut thereâs good news. I promise you. However, I donât know how to break your iron chains. We also saw some ropes just now, and they were cut by swords. But I donât know if your iron chains can be cut. It looks like the spiritual energy is thicker than those ropes.â
Sikong Wuyuan looked at the iron chain carefully and sighed. âI donât think itâs possible. These iron chains are not ordinary iron chains. At that time, you might lose your life.â
Yuan Hehe did not think it was a good idea. He advised Jiang Ming. âI think we should forget about it. What if we lose our lives? I donât want you to be in any danger.â
Upon hearing this, the beast immediately panicked. It hurriedly said, âPlease! You canât leave me in the lurch. When I was a human, I did a lot of good deeds. For the sake of these good deeds, please treat me better. Iâve already been imprisoned here for thousands of years. I canât endure it anymore.â
He smiled bitterly in his heart.
If Jiang Ming did not agree, then he would have to endure suffering for many years. He did not even know if he could still live.
His spiritual energy was already beginning to drain non-stop. He felt that it was about to run out.
At that time, even if he was not bound, he would become an ordinary person. Even if he lived, there would be no meaning.
âAlright, Iâll give it a try.â
Just like before, Jiang Ming slashed down with his sword, but he did not expect the chains to break.
The beast immediately transformed into a full human, and he could not help but be pleasantly surprised.
âIâm finally free. Thank you so much, chosen one. Since youâre unwilling, I wonât force you to accept me. Goodbye, chosen one.â In an instant, he disappeared.
Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe felt incredulous..
