The Adventures Of The Young Master

"Okay, if that's what you wish." Little Hong took out the item and gave it to Jin Rou, "As much as possible, don't use this. You know, not just the Nine Heavens will be affected, it will also affect us here."

"I told you, I won't use this unless it's my final resort." Jin Rou said. He couldn't afford to fail again right now. If he did, there's a possibility that he'd die with Han Li's body. He had to be extra cautious and careful about his moves.

Little Hong didn't respond after that. Thus, a long silence ensued. Although there weren't words to tell, they already knew each other well enough to know what's going on with their minds.

"I have to go all out in this generation." Jin Rou spoke, "This is my last chance and I cannot afford to waste it."

"Who are you going to take to that place?" Little Hong asked.

"I wonder? Icefairy presented herself but I'm still thinking about it. Why, you want to come and fight them?" Jin Rou chuckled.

"As if. I know those bastards very well and I'll just seek death if I come." Little Hong snorted. He had been there once in the past so he had a decent idea of what kind of place was that.

"Please, those people are very much wary of you. If you come with me, they'll probably feel threatened." Jin Rou smirked and shook his head, "But that'd be impossible. You have to guard my vault for a still while."

"Yep, and it's safer here." Little Hong nodded and suddenly remembered something, "Right, I remembered that punkish monk said that Fog came to him."

"Fog." Jin Rou creased his brows. Naturally, he was familiar with this name as Han Li encountered this person many times. The person was on par or slightly stronger than these guardians Han Li trusted his vault with.

Fog only appeared when he wanted to offer a transaction. He was very mysterious that even his origin was untraceable. Of course, if Jin Rou wanted to know it, he had to pay a price but it's possible.

"Yes, that monk told me that Fog appeared and offered him a very enticing offer." Little Hong seriously said, "Although that monk eventually declined the offer, it would be a lie if he said he wasn't enticed."

"What did Fog offer?" Jin Rou said. That punk monk Little Hong was talking about was someone who couldn't be easily enticed by anything. Remember, Jin Rou's vault had almost all of treasures in the world. He could just grab one and take it for himself and Han Li wouldn't say anything. But Little Hong was saying that something outside of his vault could entice him?

"Buddhist Light Seed." Little Hong said with a grave tone.

"Buddhist Light Seed? That's impossible. I have personally saw the seed germinating and dying by my eyes. How could someone possess another seed of that kind?" Jin Rou found it unbelievable.

Buddhist Light Seed was a very precious item for buddhist practitioners. For them, it was the ultimate item they could have in their lives. Naturally, the monk would be enticed.

"The monk said it's a real Buddhist Light Seed. You cannot doubt your monk's eyes, no?" Little Hong said, "So I suggest you also visit him. By now, he must already know that you're alive and he'd be waiting for you like a dog."

"Indeed, I have to." It wasn't Jin Rou's issue. After all, he's just a mere soul that possessed this body. However, for some reason, he wanted to tie the knots that Han Li had left untied. After this last challenge, he had to leave this body and return to whence he came. Han Li had already died and there's no doubt about it so Jin Rou felt obligated to tie these knots.

Furthermore, the monk could be said one of the most faithful followers of Han Li. He even fought it out against a deity from the Heavens and killed that existence himself during the Fourth Challenge. And the monk did this alone.

Jin Rou looked at Little Hong and tapped his shoulder, "Take care of the two girls, en? Remember that you cannot violate them or else face my wrath."

"Hah, as if. I have no interest in your women." Little Hong sneered. It was the truth he had no interest in them so Jin Rou could rest assure that they wouldn't be touched, "They aren't even as beautiful as those ladies and princesses in my clan. Hmph."

Jin Rou chuckled, "I know you are aware that Iris and Sirin's face are just fake to cover their beauty. After all, you might fall in love with them at once."

"Hmph." Little Hong snorted and didn't say anything further.

Jin Rou smiled after seeing this and said, "But I'm glad that you're healthy and well. I hope you leave for more billions of years and protect my vault."

"You just want me to guard this vault of yours since you cannot find someone trustworthy as I am." Little Hong said with a smirk.

"Indeed, there's nothing else like you out there." Jin Rou smiled warmly. There's no one else like Little Hong and he truly wanted the guy to live longer than ever.

Little Hong was taken aback by these words and he felt his face turning red. Han Li had never been expressive like this and it was new to him. With no choice, he turned his back and said, "Leave if you no longer have a business with this vault."

Jin Rou laughed and said, "You don't have to kick me out in my own turf, you know?"

"But I am the master of this place so I have the right to kick you out whenever I want." Little Hong spoke by his nose. He was still red from those words he received a while ago.

"Okay, I'm going to leave now. But take care of yourself, en?" Jin Rou turned his back after saying this and said, "Thank you."

Then, he eventually left the vault.. Little Hong looked back at where Jin Rou was just a while ago and emotions run amok visible in his eyes.
