"This is the master-servant contract!" Cheng Yu looked at the two corpses and said calmly.
Back then, Cheng Yu had also used Huo Yu's egg to threaten it, causing it to compromise. Presumably, it was feeling very uncomfortable and even hated Cheng Yu
"Huo Yu, will our ending be the same?" Cheng Yu patted Huo Yu's wings lightly as he sighed.
Ji ji ji! Huo Yu seemed to have sensed the sadness in Cheng Yu's heart. She lowered her head and rubbed it against Cheng Yu's head to comfort him.
"I believe you, Huo Yu. Although we have a contract, I have never treated you as my slave but as my partner!" Cheng Yu rubbed Huo Yu's head.
Ji ji ji! Huo Yu nodded.
"Golden Toad, although you are here for my god water, I have also treated you as my partner and not a slave!" Cheng Yu looked at the big toad squatting at the side and said.
Golden Toad had only followed Cheng Yu for a few days, so there wasn't much affection between them. Furthermore, Golden Toad was also unhappy with Cheng Yu because Cheng Yu's strength wasn't as high as him. If it wasn't for the god water, why would he become someone else's pet beast?
But these few days, he had gained some understanding of Cheng Yu. He felt that although this human's strength was ordinary, his hidden strength was very strong. Furthermore, he was very loyal to his brothers and friends.
During the battle, he had fallen into a predicament several times and it was Cheng Yu who saved him. This also made him have a good impression of Cheng Yu. At least, Cheng Yu didn't treat him as a fighter that could be abandoned at any time but a true combat partner.
"Don't worry! We have a master-servant contract. If I were to kill you, I wouldn't be able to live. I still don't wish to die so I won't look for you to perish together with me! "Golden Toad glanced at Cheng Yu as he transmitted his voice.
"Hehe, you don't wish to die and I don't wish to die either. But don't worry. Following me, I will definitely not let you regret it! "Cheng Yu laughed before throwing a bottle of god water to Golden Toad.
"Hope so!" Golden Toad didn't stand on ceremony. In any case, Cheng Yu had plenty of it. He opened his mouth and swallowed it.
Ji ji ji! When Huo Yu saw Cheng Yu gave him the Golden Toad God Water, she was immediately dissatisfied as she cried out. It was the pet beast that followed Cheng Yu the most. Naturally, it did not wish for Cheng Yu to treat Money Toad better than it did.
Even if he didn't really need this divine water, his treatment couldn't be worse than the Golden Toad's. Moreover, this thing was better than water, it was still helpful to him.
"Haha! If you want to drink it, just look for me. Could it be that I won't give it to you?" Cheng Yu smiled as he patted Huo Yu's head. He also gave her a bottle.
"Junior Brother Yu, you said that this imprint is the master-slave contract. The sword in this human's hand is still stabbed into the demonic beast's body. In that case, these slaves had chosen to perish together with their beast master!" With Cheng Yu's reminder, Xin He was suddenly enlightened.
"If there's no accident, the situation should be like this," Cheng Yu nodded.
"The truth is actually like this. These humans are truly pitiful. It's fine if they couldn't capture the demonic pet, but in the end, they had become the demonic beast's slave. In the end, they even chose to perish together. Tragic!" Xin Huo and the rest looked at the white bones on the ground as they shook their heads and sighed.
"What's so tragic about it? In the cultivation world, there's no killing. Regardless of demonic beasts or humans, who wouldn't wish to become a slave? Perhaps, they had wanted to turn these demonic beasts into their slaves, resulting in such an outcome. As the saying goes, the evils we bring upon ourselves are the hardest to bear.
Even if they didn't want to turn these demonic beasts into their demonic pets, since they had come here, they must be here for the Mirror Immortal's treasure. A person's fortune and misfortune are all due to greed. No matter how great we make ourselves out to be, we are still unable to escape from greed. Otherwise, we wouldn't have come here to search for the Mirror Immortal's ruins.
Speaking of which, we are no different from these people. Perhaps, what we see today will be us tomorrow. In the end, who would be the one to lament for us? "Xin Hai stood out and said disapprovingly.
When they heard Xin Hai's words, everyone was stunned as they focused their gaze on Xin Hai.
"You … … why are you all looking at me like that? Could it be that what I said is wrong? " Being stared at by everyone, Xin Hai's heart shuddered as his scalp went numb. He took a step back and added on. "I … … I'm not cursing everyone. What I said is just the truth."
"Haha, Senior Brother Xin Hai. Previously, I always thought that you and Senior Brother Xin Luo were just lacking something in your brain. Unexpectedly, you are actually able to say such profound words. The image of you in my heart had immediately become wise and farsighted!" Cheng Yu laughed.
"That's right. I can't believe that these words actually came out from your mouth. Xin Hai, did you eat the wrong medicine?" Xin He laughed.
"Hu! So it's like that. Scared me to death! " When Xin Hai saw that everyone wasn't going to criticize him, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief. However, why did these words sound so weird?
"Oi! Junior Brother Yu, are you praising him or attacking me? "Xin Luo jumped out and cried out. Her heart was extremely gloomy. What do you mean by lacking something in your brain?
"D * mn. Are they praising me? What Junior Brother Yu said is right. You don't have a brain! "Xin Hai cried out.
"As if you have a brain. Stop bullshitting me!" Xin Luo replied ill-manneredly.
"Enough. If the two of you continue arguing, it will only expose your flaw of not having a brain!" Xin Yun could no longer continue watching as she quickly stopped the two clowns.
"My god! Senior Sister, I remember that you aren't such a person. Unexpectedly, you also came to mock us. You have fallen! " Xin Luo commented. Xin Yun had always been their big sister. She was mature and steady. Unexpectedly, she had actually wallowed in the mire with these fellows.
"I can't be bothered with you guys!" Xin Yun rolled her eyes at him. She didn't even wish to look at him.
"Everyone, stop messing around. Quickly pack up these spiritual tools. Search for the whereabouts of that Earth Demon Rhinoceros. We mustn't give it a chance to recover!" Cheng Yu also felt that it was time to stop. There were still important matters waiting for them.
The hall wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. Everyone searched around the hall a few times. However, they weren't able to find any secret passages. Helpless, they could only prepare to return home.
"Seems like the Earth Demon Rhinoceros isn't here. Let's go to other places to search?" After searching around, they weren't able to find any clues. Xin He spoke.
"I keep feeling that there's something wrong with this hall!" Cheng Yu swept his gaze across the hall.
"What's wrong?" Xin He enquired.
"I can't say. I just feel that this hall is too simple. Think about it, the tunnel outside is about four to five kilometers long. In the end, it's just a hall. There's no way out. It's really too unreasonable!" Cheng Yu frowned.
"But we have searched around for so many times. We really haven't found any secret mechanisms or secret passages!" Xin He felt that Cheng Yu's words were somewhat reasonable.
"I don't think so. Junior Brother Yu also said that these people are the demonic beasts' slaves. The cave they built was naturally built with the demonic beasts' ideas in mind. Think about it. Even if the demonic beasts' intelligence is high, can it be higher than humans? Even if they are demonic beasts, their intelligence is at most similar to a child that had just started to understand. Why would they consider the problem of an escape route? "Xin Luo stood out and spoke.
Such a long passageway only led to a blocked hall. Perhaps from the perspective of humans, this was indeed an unreasonable design. But it was precisely because of this that they looked at the cave from the perspective of humans. Naturally, it was unreasonable.
But if they were to look at it from the demonic beasts' perspective, it wasn't unreasonable at all. In any case, they felt that it was very normal.
"Xin Luo's words are somewhat reasonable. After all, this cave was built with the demonic beasts' ideas in mind. It wasn't as far-sighted as humans. It's not impossible!" Xin Mei and the others nodded. They felt that Xin Luo's words were very reasonable.
"Is the intelligence of humans definitely higher than demonic beasts? Not to mention, that Earth Demon Rhinoceros' intelligence was not any lower than humans. Furthermore, do you recognize the demonic beasts on the ground? "Cheng Yu spoke calmly.
"From these white bones and remains, these demonic beasts look like cats and foxes. However, these claws are like a tiger. I believe that this is definitely a type of mutated fox. As for what kind of fox it is, I am unable to tell." Xin Yun's horizons were very broad. After carefully examining the place, she spoke.
"Junior Brother Yu, could it be that you are able to tell what kind of demonic beast it is?" Xin He enquired.
"Senior Sister Xin Yun's eyesight is not bad. These are indeed mutated Fox Clan demonic beasts. However, they aren't any ordinary Fox Clan. Instead, they are the most valiant Mute Bone Tiger Thorny Fox. Look at these claws. It's clearly a tiger. Furthermore, three inches away from these claws, there's a bone spike. This caused their lethality to be extremely powerful.
However, valiance isn't their greatest characteristic. Their greatest characteristic is their intelligence. It's definitely not lower than humans. In fact, they might even be smarter. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to hunt so many human slaves! "Cheng Yu spoke.
"Mute Bone Tiger Thorny Fox? How come I have never heard of this kind of Fox Clan demonic beast? "Xin Luo shook her head.
"Mute Bone Tiger Thorny Fox is a very valiant demonic beast race that appeared ten thousand years ago. However, it seems to have gone extinct now. Unexpectedly, Junior Brother Yu actually recognized it. Truly makes one curious!" Xin Yun looked at Cheng Yu and spoke pensively.
"Senior Sister, you recognize this Mute Bone Tiger Thorny Fox?" Xin Luo enquired curiously.
"I'm not very familiar with it. I've only seen some descriptions in an ancient book. Just now, when I heard Junior Brother Yu's words, I recalled this demonic beast. As for Junior Brother Yu, it seems like there's nothing you don't know? " Xin Yun was getting more and more suspicious of Cheng Yu. This fellow didn't understand anything about the Cultivation World. However, when it came to his horizons, there seemed to be nothing he didn't know. This was truly too strange. Was he really a secular person?
