"Woof, woof, woof —"
Little Black saw that the fellow in the pool was getting more and more excited and was about to spill out. It barked at it twice, and the other party immediately quieted down.
Sima Youyue patted Blackie's back gratefully and said to the thing in the pool, "You've never come out before?"
"No." That thing seemed to be afraid of Xiao Hei getting angry again, so it spoke carefully. "From the moment I gained consciousness, they locked me in here. I've never been able to leave."
"Ever since you gained sentience?" Si Yue was shocked, "You weren't suppressed because you did something bad?"
"There's no such thing!" That voice growled and wasn't so polite to Si Yue anymore. "I've never done anything. They've been keeping me here for so many years. I want to get out! I want to go out! "
"Pfff —"
Mu Si was injured by the aura released by that thing and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Don't be noisy!" Sima You Yue's internal organs were shaken by his voice as she roared with a frown.
She came to Mu Si's side and checked his pulse. Then, she took out a pill and fed it to him.
"If you act like that again, I'll cripple you!" She threatened.
The water in the pool quieted down.
"Mu Si, how are you?" Si Yue ran over to ask.
"He's fine. He's just injured. He'll be fine after eating some pills." Sima Youyue said. She took out a chair and said to Mu Si, "Sit down and rest."
Mu Si's face was pale. He listened to Sima Youyue and sat on the chair.
In order to prevent this from happening again, Sima Youyue casually set up a small enchantment to protect Mu Si.
She came to the side of the pool and said, "I can hear that you want to leave. However, if you leave, won't this city disappear as well? Is that why they suppressed you? "
"No! That's not the case! " The voice retorted, "In the beginning, they imprisoned me here just to obtain power from me. Later, they were afraid that I would turn on them, so they imprisoned me here forever."
"Who obtained your power? A resident of the city, or the City Lord? "Sima You Yue asked.
"Hmph, no matter how powerful I am, I can't support the cultivation of millions of people."
"If that's the case, it's for the City Lords to cultivate." Sima Youyue said.
"Not only the City Lord, but also the City Lord's successor. But those successors don't come often. "
"That's why they wanted to imprison you here. Who would have thought that after thousands of years, you actually gained your own consciousness." Sima Youyue said, "And now, you don't want to be restrained, so you've started to resist. They were afraid of your revenge, so they could only use an even more powerful seal to suppress you. "
"That's right."
"All these years, you've accumulated a lot of resentment in your heart. So, when you come out, you'll definitely start a massacre."
"That's what I thought before," the thing said honestly. "I've been suppressed for so many years, and I can't accept it! I want revenge! I want to kill everyone! I want to kill everyone! "
That thing became agitated again, and the water in the pool began to boil again. Luckily, Mu Si was protected by the enchantment this time, so he didn't get hurt again.
"How pitiful." Si Yue said sympathetically.
If she had been trapped in this pool since she was born …
She thought about it and shuddered. This thought was too scary. If it was her, she would go crazy. Mm, at least she would be like this thing, wanting to destroy everyone.
Sima Youyue also sympathized with this thing, but she didn't completely believe its words.
She had an idea. Such a powerful thing, if she kept it …
"So you're saying that if you leave here, it won't affect the citizens of this city?" She asked.
"No." That voice said, "I have nothing to do with this city in the first place. How could anything happen to me!"
He replied too quickly, which made it hard to believe.
"Little sister, you're not thinking of saving her right?" Si Yue said.
Sima Youyue didn't think that Si Yue would be so sensitive, guessing her thoughts right away.
"Do you think it's possible?" She didn't plan to hide it. If she wanted to find her father, she might need Si Yue's help. Also, Si Yue had defended her in front of so many people, so she remembered this.
Si Yue looked at the water in the pool and frowned, saying, "I don't understand this thing. If you let it out, what if it hurts people again? Also, I don't think they'll let you let it out. "
"That's true. If I let it out, that old witch probably won't let me leave alive. "Sima Youyue said.
"If you let me out, I'll definitely protect you and leave!"
That thing really knew how to take advantage of loopholes.
"If I let you out and you acknowledge me as your master, are you willing?" Sima Youyue asked.
"That's a good idea." Si Yue said, "If it acknowledges you as its master, without your orders, it won't hurt anyone else. At the same time, it can protect your safety. No matter how unwilling they are, they won't dare to do anything to you! "
"You don't want it to acknowledge you as its master?" Sima Youyue raised her eyebrows.
"Forget it! It's so powerful, I don't have the ability to suppress it. Don't even mention acknowledging me as its master, I'll be devoured by it when the time comes. "Si Yue saw it clearly and didn't lose her rationality just because this thing was powerful.
He Bo who was behind wanted to say something. He opened his mouth but remained silent in the end.
Even Miss was more open-minded than him!
This thing was so powerful. If there wasn't anything that could suppress or restrain it, even if it acknowledged her as its master, it could still devour her at any time. If it was light, the master-servant relationship would be flipped. If it was heavy, she might even lose her life.
And Sima Youyue had Little Black. Anyone could see that this thing was afraid of Little Black. With Little Black around, it wouldn't dare to devour Sima Youyue.
So if she wanted to keep this thing, only Sima Youyue could do it.
Sima Youyue saw that she understood and felt that she was a girl worth befriending.
There were too many greedy people in this world. In this world where power reigned supreme, how many people could see their true nature and not be confused by these temptations?
"If you have it, you might really be able to find your father this time. However, if you want this thing to acknowledge you as its master, I'm afraid it won't be easy. "Si Yue said.
Sima Youyue also felt that it wouldn't be easy. She turned around and looked into the pond, saying, "If you acknowledge me as your master and I bring you out, would you be willing?"
"Acknowledge you as my master? No! Impossible! I won't acknowledge a human as my master! However, if you let me out, I'm willing to do two things for you in return. "That thing cried out.
"Really? Do you really think that I'll let you leave for free? "Sima Youyue shrugged," Either you acknowledge me as your master or you continue to stay here. You choose. "
