“Ye Chu, let the senior finish speaking!” Bai Xuan pulled on Ye Chu, then said to the Old Madman, “Senior, please continue!”
“I understand Ye Chu’s thoughts. Perhaps in his heart, the entire Love Domain is not as important as you. But do you believe in fate?” the Old Madman suddenly asked Ye Chu.
“Fate?” Bai Xuan was puzzled. She glanced at Ye Chu, then said, “I believe in it!”
“Since you believe in fate, then this thing is your fate. You are a descendant of the Blood Slaughter Supreme, and this thing has been delivered right in front of you. Even if you do not take the initiative to fuse with it, it will not let you go. This is its Dao,” the Old Madman said. “Rather than it seeking you out on its own, it is better for us to help you!”
Ye Chu suddenly turned his gaze to the Old Madman. “Are you saying this dragon-shaped bone will actively seek out Bai Xuan?”
“The thing left in the General’s Tomb back then was a secret treasure left by the Blood Slaughter Supreme. This thing exists to awaken the bloodline of his descendants, and similarly, Ye Chu has imprinted its Dao. That thing has already been utilised, and Bai Xuan carries its aura. Since the Blood Slaughter Supreme has not been resurrected, this dragon-shaped bone will naturally seek a host, and the best host is undoubtedly his descendant. If Bai Xuan had not awakened her bloodline, it would not have found you. But right now, this is fate. You cannot escape it unless you have the strength to avoid it. But even though Bai Xuan has awakened her bloodline and her strength is progressing rapidly, it is still extremely difficult to avoid the Supreme Bone,” the Old Madman said.
Ye Chu looked at Shui Gu. Shui Gu waved his hand and said, “Do not look at me. Although this old man is sometimes unreliable, he will not lie to you about this.”
“So there is no choice but to fuse with this dragon-shaped bone?” Ye Chu stared at Shui Gu and the Old Madman.
“You can choose not to fuse, but we cannot guarantee when it will actively seek out Bai Xuan. When that happens, Bai Xuan will be the subordinate and it will be the master! But if we take action, Bai Xuan will be the master and it will be the subordinate,” Shui Gu replied.
“If we fuse, what will the consequences be!” Seeing the trend of Ye Chu about to go berserk, Bai Xuan quickly grabbed him, parted her red lips, and asked Shui Gu.
“We do not know the consequences either, but that is the Dao of the Blood Slaughter Supreme, so the aura of slaughter is inevitably unavoidable. As for the rest, we will only know once the fusion happens,” Shui Gu replied. “But possessing the Supreme Bone, you will undergo an astonishing transformation. As long as you can fully utilise the fusion, you will absolutely shock the world. You might even be able to control a part of the Blood Slaughter Supreme’s Dao.”
“You do not know what the consequences are?” Ye Chu stared straight at Shui Gu, then looked at the Old Madman.
“Do not look at me. This old man does not know the consequences either, and we will only know by trying. However, what I can guarantee is that Bai Xuan’s life will absolutely not be threatened. I have confidence in this!” the Old Madman replied.
Hearing these words, Ye Chu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Nothing else mattered, as long as Bai Xuan would not be in danger.
“If you are unwilling, this old man can try to suppress this Supreme Bone. But this is the entire body of bones and tendons of the Blood Slaughter Supreme, making it extremely difficult to suppress. We can suppress it for a time, but not for a lifetime. When it breaks out, there will definitely be a river of blood, and Bai Xuan will be controlled by it. The consequences will be even more severe!”
“Then let us fuse!” Bai Xuan answered. She looked at Ye Chu, squeezed his hand with her fingers, and said, “I also want to see what exactly our ancestor left behind!”
Ye Chu looked at Bai Xuan and did not speak. He just squeezed her hand back, then looked at the Old Madman and said, “It should not just be this, right? The Blood Slaughter Supreme has a bad reputation in the Love Domain. If Bai Xuan fuses with the Bone of the Blood Slaughter Supreme, I am afraid the whole world will know that Bai Xuan is a descendant of the Blood Slaughter Supreme. Countless people will transfer their hatred for the Blood Slaughter Supreme onto Bai Xuan. Bai Xuan is just a woman. How can she withstand the hatred of the world?”
Shui Gu and the Old Madman exchanged a glance, then looked at Ye Chu and said, “As a man, can you not even bear this kind of responsibility?”
Being reprimanded by the Old Madman and Shui Gu, Ye Chu clenched his fists, then took a deep breath and said, “Your teachings are right!”
“Then it is settled! I will take action to help her fuse with the Supreme Bone. For Bai Xuan, whether this is a blessing or a curse is uncertain. But it is better than it definitely being a disaster in the future!” Shui Gu said to Bai Xuan. “We also look forward to your fusion. Perhaps this can change the fate of the Love Domain, and it is even possible that the Love Domain will change because of this!”
Shui Gu and the Old Madman did not explain everything completely to Ye Chu. Apart from helping Bai Xuan, they had another wish in expecting this to happen, which was to break the game set by the Blood Slaughter Supreme. This concerned the entire Love Domain!
“There is one thing I have always been very curious about!” Ye Chu suddenly looked at the Old Madman and said to him, “In a forbidden land in the Love Domain, the Divine Palace, I encountered two corpses that looked exactly like you, old man. I wonder why?”
The Old Madman was stunned, then spat and said, “What kind of nonsense are you talking about, kid? What do you mean exactly like me? I am alive and well. Why are you cursing me to die?”
“Do you think I am joking?” Ye Chu stared at the Old Madman and said, “There really are two corpses there, and they look exactly like you!”
The Old Madman directly turned his head away and did not look at Ye Chu. This bastard was indeed of that nature, beating around the bush just to curse him. He was perfectly fine, how could there be corpses that looked exactly like him.
Ou Yi and Jin Wawa both gave Ye Chu a thumbs up, thinking that Ye Chu was truly courageous to not be afraid of the Old Madman beating him.
“Ye Chu, do not talk nonsense. The senior has taken very good care of us.” Bai Xuan rolled her eyes at Ye Chu, signalling him not to be so petty.
Seeing that everyone just thought he was cursing the Old Madman, Ye Chu became somewhat anxious. “I am telling the truth. If you do not believe me, just go to the Divine Palace and take a look.”
Ou Yi curled his lips and spat in his heart, thinking that Ye Chu’s level of lying was getting lower and lower. Who did not know that the Divine Palace was a forbidden land, a place of no return and certain death? Ye Chu saying this just meant he knew they would not go in.
Seeing that none of these people believed him, Ye Chu became somewhat anxious. This was a secret that had puzzled him for a long time. If no one took it seriously now, how could he ever solve it?
“Old man, they are definitely related to you. Do you not know anything at all?” Ye Chu shouted at the Old Madman.
The Old Madman shrugged, turned his head away from Ye Chu, and whispered a few words to Bai Xuan. Then he spoke a few words to Tan Miaotong, inquiring about the elders in Tan Miaotong’s family.
This attitude of the old man made Ye Chu stunned. He obviously truly did not take it seriously. There was only one possibility, that the Old Madman really did not know about the existence of those two corpses. But was this possible? They looked exactly the same, how could he not know?
“Old man, you…”
“Enough!” The Old Madman ignored Ye Chu’s nonsense and said to Bai Xuan, “We will take this Supreme Bone of the Blood Slaughter Supreme to deal with it first, and then consider the matter of fusing it into your body later.”
“Thank you for your trouble, senior!” Bai Xuan said.
