“Use your demonic aura to nourish it for me!”
Jiang Xiaobai’s lips curved up, and he lifted his hand, looking at the great demon and said, “Not for too long, just half a month…”
“You want me to nourish it for half a month?”
The great demon stared at the Cloud Spirit Bird in Jiang Xiaobai’s hand, his eyes widening.
Just as he was about to refuse, he caught Jiang Xiaobai’s indifferent gaze: “Alright, alright, I will nurture it for half a month, but only half a month!”
Indeed, it gave in again, its voice filled with helplessness.
What else could it do!
If it were anyone else, it would certainly consider this a humiliation.
If it didn’t flatten the other party with a claw, it would not feel vindicated.
But facing Jiang Xiaobai, no matter how uncomfortable it felt inside, it could only reluctantly agree.
After all, who made this kid not only suit its taste but even admire it!
Seeing the great demon agree, Jiang Xiaobai fell silent, then after a while, he said, “Ah, I knew it, I knew you would agree!”
“Before this, I never understood the meaning of ‘iron bones, tender heart,’ but now I get it, it must be describing you!”
Jiang Xiaobai looked firmly at the great demon and continued, “Beneath that brave exterior, there actually lies a heart that can inspire songs and tears!”
“That… That’s right!”
The great demon was invigorated, the phrases ‘iron bones, tender heart’ and ‘inspiring songs and tears’ floating in its mind.
This made it truly uncomfortable, and immediately it put on an indifferent expression, and coldly said, “I quite like this Cloud Spirit Bird, leave it to me!”
“I must leave it to you because I wouldn’t trust anyone else,” Jiang Xiaobai said, hesitating before continuing, “even our old ancestor!”
The great demon’s gaze intensified, his breathing changed, but it still forcefully suppressed its inner turmoil and extended its claw: “Quick, hand it to me!”
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai passed the Cloud Spirit Bird over.
The great demon, looking at the Cloud Spirit Bird on its claw, suppressed the urge to put it in its mouth and acted unaffected: “Come find me after half a month, I will definitely have raised it plump and round for you!”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, “Then I’ll take my leave. In the end… don’t be too good to it, I’m worried you’ll spoil its character.”
“Hurry up and leave!”
…
The great demon nodded, watching as Jiang Xiaobai left and took a deep breath after he was far away.
Those giant eyes focused on the Cloud Spirit Bird on its claw, filled with deep helplessness.
Right, if the news of it raising a Cloud Spirit Bird got out, wouldn’t it be laughed to death?
But there was no helping it; since it had promised, it had to endure for half a month…
…
“Eh, Xiaobai, where’s your Cloud Spirit Bird?”
Back at his residence, Jiang Xiaobai saw Zhou Bin looking at his empty hands with surprise.
When he left, Jiang Xiaobai had taken the young Cloud Spirit Bird with him, so why did he return without it?
“Oh, I left it with Elder Huang!”
Jiang Xiaobai smiled, “He’s helping me look after it for a while!”
This matter wasn’t big, and he believed Zhou Bin wouldn’t specifically go verify it with Huang Linyuan.
“Elder Huang is really good to you, huh!”
Zhou Bin listened, once again showing envy on his face.
“Here, take this!”
Jiang Xiaobai, remembering something, threw a spirit stone from his clothes to Zhou Bin.
After receiving the spirit stone, Zhou Bin immediately felt the dense spiritual energy within and was astonished: “This spirit stone must be of a high grade!”
After speaking, he handed the spirit stone back to Jiang Xiaobai, “Xiaobai, this spirit stone is too precious, I can’t accept it.”
“I still have two more, Brother Zhou, you keep it!”
Jiang Xiaobai shook his head.
“But…”
Zhou Bin wanted to say something else, but Jiang Xiaobai interrupted him, “Brother Zhou, if it wasn’t for your help, I wouldn’t have been able to kill Yang Cheng. This spirit stone is nothing, you must accept it!”
That’s right, if Yang Cheng had come looking for trouble and Zhou Bin hadn’t asked Huang Linyuan to come, he wouldn’t be alive today.
And he wouldn’t have had the chance to become a disciple of Huang Linyuan.
In his plans, Zhou Bin was indeed a key factor.
While he was someone who sought revenge, he also knew how to be grateful!
“Alright, then I’ll accept it!”
Zhou Bin, holding the spirit stone, finally nodded his agreement.
Jiang Xiaobai smiled and said, “You continue cultivating!”
After saying this, he sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.
Zhou Bin looked at the spirit stone in his hands, then at Jiang Xiaobai, feeling an inward sigh.
Jiang Xiaobai was such a good person; how could Xiao Shuyun do that to him!
Thinking about it, he once again felt it was unjust for Jiang Xiaobai!
With a sigh, Zhou Bin also closed his eyes and entered a state of cultivation.
