"Moo! Congratulations on your breakthrough, Senior An Lin! I'm willing to follow you into battle! "Ao Niu spoke with a fawning expression.
"Ribbit! Senior An Lin punched the Kirin Blood Jade with his fist and kicked the Demonic Blood Kirin with his foot before instantly making his breakthrough. What an astonishing feat! "The Poison Mist Frog expressed its admiration for An Lin without any hesitation.
An Lin couldn't be bothered with the two nobodies around him. He made his way over to the Demonic Blood Kirin and joined his hands in gratitude. "Thank you for helping me break through my cultivation bottleneck, Senior."
The middle-aged man almost burst into tears again upon hearing this.
What a good way to use the phrase "help with everything"! He had even given himself away!
"Don't call me Senior." The middle-aged man waved his hand unnaturally. "Just call me by my name."
For some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable being referred to as Senior by An Lin.
Ever since his Kirin Blood Jade transformed into An Lin's clothes, he couldn't even muster up the thought of hurting An Lin. It was as if he really had become An Lin's woman …
The middle-aged man's eyes suddenly widened, and his expression twisted as he drew a sharp intake of breath.
Woman my a * s!
I'm a male kirin!
Seeing the middle-aged man's expression suddenly crumble, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan immediately pulled out their weapons in fear that the middle-aged man would suddenly attack them.
"Um, Senior, are you alright?" An Lin asked.
"I told you not to call me Senior!" The veins on the middle-aged man's forehead bulged. "Call me by my name!"
"Then what's your name?" An Lin asked.
The middle-aged man calmed himself down before replying in an indifferent voice, "My surname is Dongfang."
Dongfang?
So it was a human name. Those with the surname Dongfang were all very high and mighty.
An Lin nodded. "What's Dongfang?"
The middle-aged man looked up with a smug expression. "My name is Dongfang Zhuangshi."
Everyone instantly fell silent.
Ao Niu's eyes widened, and the groundhog silently picked at its ears.
"Zhuang … Zhuangshi?" An Lin was wondering if he had heard wrong.
"That's right. That's a pretty good name, right? She was the one who gave it to me. "The uncle smiled tenderly." She said that being strong and sturdy represented a kind of vitality of life! The name Zhuangshi contains the simplest and most genuine emotions. It is compatible with the path of life, and it is easy to understand and catchy … "
An Lin's mouth twitched.
Xu Xiaolan tried hard not to laugh as her face turned red.
What f * cking compatibility with the Dao of Life? Uncle must have been tricked by her, right?
Too f * cking down-to-earth, too f * cking simple!
Dongfang Zhuangshi? This was a clear stream of Dongfang surname!
"Puchi! Ahahahahaha … Croak! "The frog couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Dongfang Zhuangshi focused his gaze, and killing intent instantly erupted from his body as he glared at the frog with crimson eyes. "What are you laughing at?"
"Ga!" The frog stopped laughing. Its strong desire to live made it think quickly. "Senior Dongfang, I'm not laughing at you. I suddenly thought of a joke. That's why I suddenly laughed!"
"Ha, a joke? What joke? Tell me, "Dongfang Zhuangshi said coldly.
The frog took a deep breath. "Once upon a time, there were two monsters. They felt bored, so they decided to experience the human world. One of them became a handsome man, while the other became a beautiful woman. They coincidentally met, fell in love, and got married.
"In order to not give themselves away, they even aged themselves every day. A hundred years later, both of them have lost their cool, so why is this old thing still not dead?!!!
"Hahaha … Isn't it funny? Croak! Hahaha … "
The frog guffawed as it prayed in its heart. Laugh! All of you, laugh!
Dongfang Zhuangshi turned expressionlessly toward An Lin and the others. "Is this joke funny?"
An Lin immediately laughed along with him. "It's quite funny."
However, he added in his heart, Not as funny as your name, Dongfang Zhuangshi …
Dongfang Zhuangshi harrumphed coldly. Perhaps he felt like these people really had a low threshold for humor, so he changed the subject and turned to An Lin. "Now, let's settle the score. You stole my Kirin Blood Jade."
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan's expressions became grave upon hearing this. Were they finally going to settle the score?
"Hey, there's no need to act like this." Dongfang Zhuangshi was a little sad and dejected upon seeing An Lin's expression, and he hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
"It's like this. I'm a cultured man, so I'm going to be reasonable!" Dongfang Zhuangshi spoke with a warm smile.
An Lin faltered slightly upon hearing this.
Reasonable? Could this matter be reasoned with?
He felt like he was in the wrong here … If Dongfang Zhuangshi were to attack him, then he would feel less guilty. Dongfang Zhuangshi was trying to reason with him, but he was feeling a little uncomfortable instead …
"Alright, Uncle Dongfang, how do you want me to reason with you?" An Lin decided to see what Dongfang Zhuangshi had to say first. If they couldn't come to an agreement, then they could just fight.
Oh, right, it seemed like Dongfang Zhuangshi couldn't attack him.
This was probably why Dongfang Zhuangshi was trying to reason with him.
Since he couldn't attack, he could only use words!
"An Lin, I'm not going to lie to you. I've discovered that I can't leave you anymore," Dongfang Zhuangshi spoke with a serious expression.
An Lin: "…"
Xu Xiaolan's eyelids twitched.
"Uncle Dongfang, please finish your sentence in case there are any unnecessary misunderstandings." An Lin's expression darkened.
Dongfang Zhuangshi nodded. "It's like this. The Kirin Blood Jade is formed from the essence of my life. It contains everything aside from my consciousness, so it could be said to be my body.
"Standing before you now is the Demonic Blood Kirin with its consciousness as its main body. It is like a rootless flame that needs to be nourished by my body. Otherwise, it will be snuffed out."
The middle-aged man made his way toward An Lin as he spoke and laid his hands on his shoulders with a scorching light in his eyes. "Hence, An Lin, I can't leave you, so let me stay by your side. You stole my Kirin Blood Jade, so you have to take responsibility, right? "
An Lin's chest constricted. Take responsibility? What f * cking responsibility?! Do you think you're a Celestial Maiden? It's disgusting to have a grown man following you around all the time!
Xu Xiaolan massaged her brows with a distressed expression. Why did things have to develop to this point? This middle-aged man's words were clearly very strange, but they made a lot of sense!
If they didn't agree, wouldn't they be treated as villains?
"Um … Are you going to follow me all the time?" An Lin felt a headache coming on.
"M-hm." Dongfang Zhuangshi nodded. "I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, I only need to absorb your energy every once in a while. I won't follow you all the time.
"During this process, I will do my best to recover my strength and reconstruct my mythological beast body. The day I attain the phenomenal success stage of my mythological beast body will be the day I become an independent existence and can leave you! "
An Lin heaved a faint sigh. He felt like there was no other way, so he could only nod in agreement.
Just like that, a strange middle-aged man with an indescribable appearance joined An Lin's team.
