The girl laughed:
"You don’t recognize this!"
"This is the demon beast Two-winged Black Tiger."
"Black Stream is its na. My Black Stream has the royal bloodline of the Two-winged Black Tiger."
Zhou Yu didn’t know what a Two-winged Black Tiger was, but there’s a saying in the Human Clan Plane: ’like a tiger with wings.’ This tiger, just by its wings, seed very extraordinary indeed.
In addition, the girl wore an expression of pride, making it clear that this creature was truly remarkable.
Zhou Yu nodded without speaking.
At this mont, Mr. Liu, standing nearby, spoke up.
He fixed his gaze on Zhou Yu and said:
"Would you care to introduce yourself, sir ? What’s your na, and where do you co from?"
Zhou Yu felt a jolt of surprise inside, but his face remained unchanged.
He replied:
"My surna is Zhou!"
"I have been cultivating in the mountains with my master since childhood and have never left the village."
"I only know that my village is called Little River Village and it belongs to the Heavenly Moon Realm, but I don’t know its exact location."
"I ended up here by accidentally getting caught in a space rift, barely escaping with my life."
Hearing Zhou Yu’s story, Mr. Liu frowned.
It seed like Zhou Yu was saying a lot, but actually, there wasn’t anything useful in his words.
Mr. Liu was naturally very dissatisfied with Zhou Yu’s answer.
Mr. Liu’s expression darkened, and just as he was about to speak, the woman beside him waved her hand and said:
"Mr. Liu, this gentleman seems quite unfortunate; there’s no need to press him further."
"My Black Stream is very good at judging people’s auras."
"Black Stream tells he’s not a bad person!"
Hearing the woman speak, Mr. Liu hesitated for a mont, then bowed and said:
"Miss, one can never be too careful."
"Besides, this young man is a Body Refining Martial Artist of the Cave Heaven Realm. If he harbors ill intentions, we won’t be able to stop him!"
"Rember your father’s instructions before we set out?"
"He told to keep you safe."
"Now, suddenly there’s this stranger of unknown origin, Miss, please consider it carefully."
"If anything happens, I would have difficulty explaining to your father."
Upon hearing this, the woman hesitated.
"Mr. Liu, you’re right, but..."
The woman glanced at Zhou Yu again.
"He’s heavily injured alone. Leaving him here would surely an his death."
"The Desert Black Wind is coming soon, isn’t it?"
Desert Black Wind?
Suspicion flashed in Zhou Yu’s eyes.
"What’s that?"
He asked.
Upon hearing Zhou Yu’s question, the girl was about to explain:
"You don’t even know what the Desert Black Wind is. The Desert Black Wind is..."
"Miss!!!"
At this mont, Mr. Liu interjected, interrupting the girl’s words.
Then, looking at the girl, he said:
"Miss, you have a kind heart and don’t want to leave him behind."
"Taking him with us may be dangerous."
"Well, I have a solution that might work for both sides."
"If he agrees, we can take him along and even find a way to heal his injuries."
Hearing this, the woman quickly asked:
"What solution?"
Mr. Liu glanced at Zhou Yu, then continued:
"Let him swear a Heavenly Yuan Blood Oath to serve you for three years. During these three years, any betrayal will lead to death by the Blood Demon consuming his heart."
"After three years, if he wishes to leave, he can do so freely!"
Hearing this, the woman showed hesitation.
"This..."
Seeing the woman still hesitating, Mr. Liu said seriously:
"Miss, this is the most I can compromise."
The woman reluctantly looked at Zhou Yu.
"Young Master Zhou, would you be willing to follow Mr. Liu’s suggestion?"
Zhou Yu’s expression remained calm as he asked:
"Would you please explain what the Heavenly Yuan Blood Oath is?"
Mr. Liu frowned.
"You don’t even know this?"
Zhou Yu apologized:
"Sorry, as I ntioned earlier, I’ve been with my master since childhood and haven’t interacted with others much, so..."
The woman quickly said:
"Mr. Liu, Young Master Zhou has already explained himself. Are you suggesting that there might be sothing suspicious?"
Mr. Liu replied sternly:
"Normally, what he’s said wouldn’t pass with at all."
"However, I checked his bone age earlier, and it’s indeed only twenty-seven years."
"In that case, it seems plausible."
After saying this, he looked at Zhou Yu.
"Since you don’t know about the Heavenly Yuan Blood Oath, I’ll explain it to you."
As he spoke, he took out a three-foot Jade Box from his bag.
Opening the Jade Box, there was a scroll-like object inside.
He then took out the scroll and slowly unfurled it.
Instantly, Zhou Yu felt a powerful aura of the Primordial Spirit emanating from it.
Sothing stirred in Zhou Yu’s heart.
This thing seems related to the Primordial Spirit.
Soon, Mr. Liu fully unfolded the scroll.
There were no words on it, only a complex symbol.
Each line of this symbol exuded the aura of the Primordial Spirit.
If Zhou Yu guessed correctly, this symbol was probably carved using the power of Divine Thought by a cultivator with a very strong Primordial Spirit.
Looking at Zhou Yu, Mr. Liu said:
"This is the Heavenly Yuan Blood Oath."
"You just need to cut your palm and press it on here, and the blood oath will be established."
"This Heavenly Yuan Blood Oath is specifically for cultivators!"
"If you violate the oath, the Blood Demon will attack your heart, leading to certain death."
"Of course, if you adhere to it, after the three-year period, the oath will naturally be lifted."
"You can then leave as you wish."
"Now, the decision is yours!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu fully understood.
His eyes flickered with contemplation as he asked:
"I want to know, if I sign this Heavenly Yuan Blood Oath, what will I be required to do during those three years?"
"If during those three years, you ask to do things beyond my ability, then it would be better to leave here now."
Mr. Liu scoffed.
"Alright then."
"I’ll send you away now!"
Saying this, he made a move.
But the woman intervened quickly.
"Mr. Liu, don’t be hasty."
Then she looked at Zhou Yu and smiled:
"Young Master Zhou, rest assured, during these three years, I won’t make things difficult for you."
"If there’s a need, I will ask for your help. You can assist if you wish or refuse if not..."
"Miss!"
Beside her, Mr. Liu was agitated upon hearing this.
He imdiately tried to stop the woman from speaking.
However, the woman firmly waved her hand.
"Mr. Liu, I’ve already considered your suggestion. But as to what he should do, I’ll decide!"
Hearing this, Mr. Liu had no choice but to say:
"Yes, Miss!"
The woman smiled faintly and then looked at Zhou Yu.
"Young Master Zhou, what do you think?"
Zhou Yu sighed internally, noting the girl’s rare grace and character.
He no longer hesitated.
He nodded and said:
"Alright, I agree!"
