Chapter 86 - Retracting the Bloodline
It had no choice. If it didn’t agree, the Gold-Swallowing Clan would never regain their freedom.
Jun Mohuang went step by step and made the Gold-Swallowing Beast give in to her.
After the contract was completed, Jun Mohuang sensed a thumb-sized golden toad in her divine sense.
The Gold-Swallowing Beast gently lifted its claws and sent her up.
A spiritual golden toad emerged from between its eyebrows and flew to Jun Mohuang. It attached itself to the crystal around her neck.
Once the Gold-Swallowing Beast’s soul left its body, its body in the abyss suddenly disappeared.
“Don’t you want your body anymore?”
Jun Mohuang asked with raised brows. She couldn’t break the chains now, but that didn’t mean she couldn’t in the future.
The Gold-Swallowing Beast replied telepathically. “No need. My original body no longer exists in this world. That body is just one of my clones. It’s been exhausted after so many years.”
Seeing that she came up safely, Jun Jianlin finally let go of Xiao Jin.
The two of them retraced their steps.
Along the way, the Gold-Swallowing Beast explained to Jun Mohuang the promise it made with the Jun Family’s ancestors.
Back then, its main body was killed due to an unforeseen event, so it could only create a temporary clone and flee to its nest.
Unexpectedly, his doppelganger was suppressed in his lair and he coincidentally met the Jun Family ancestor who had come here to explore.
The Gold-Swallowing Beast had no choice but to reach an agreement with the Jun Family’s ancestors. The Gold-Swallowing Beast would gift its blood essence to the Jun Family’s ancestors and become their Totem Beast. This way, the Jun Family’s descendants would have the talent to refine weapons.
But in the future, when the Jun Family had the purest bloodline, they must bear the heavy responsibility of restoring the Gold-Swallowing Beast’s status on the mainland.
After hearing the ins and outs of the matter, Jun Mohuang asked, “Who exactly killed your main body and suppressed your clone?”
“Master, I don’t know either.”
The Gold-Swallowing Beast recalled for a long time and realized that its memory was blank.
“Forget it. Since I’ve accepted you, as long as I have the ability in the future, I won’t leave you in the lurch.”
Jun Mohuang rubbed her forehead. She had her eyes on the combat power of the Gold-Swallowing Beast.
She didn’t expect to obtain a spiritual body and even provoke an unknown enemy.
This deal was really not worth it.
“Thank you, Master!”
The Gold-Swallowing Beast was extremely grateful. It had been forced to recognize Jun Mohuang as its Master just now. But with Jun Mohuang to say this, it proved that she already saw herself as its real owner now.
Xiao Jin was naturally overjoyed to sense its mother’s aura on Jun Mohuang.
But Jun Mohuang kept a cold face and ignored it.
This was the second time Xiao Jin had tricked her. Jun Mohuang decided to teach it a lesson.
When they walked out of the forbidden area, the sky revealed a touch of dawn.
The fourth day arrived, meaning that the family examination had officially ended.
Jun Mohuang immediately saw Jun Jianning’s body.
“Tsk, tsk. I thought Jun Jianren was just making us the scapegoats for trespassing the forbidden area. I didn’t expect him to make us the scapegoats for murder.”
She had underestimated Jun Jianren.
“What? Master, you said this person is from the Jun Family? When did the Jun Family become like this with such a weak Gold-Swallowing Beast bloodline?”
The Gold-Swallowing Beast in the Master Crystal was in disbelief.
It thought that although it was impossible for everyone to have the purest bloodline like Jun Mohuang, it shouldn’t be too far off.
“Mother, you haven’t been out in a long time, so of course you wouldn’t know. There are many people in the Jun Family whose bloodline is much thinner than his. And those people are so detestable, always bullying Master.”
The Gold-Swallowing Beast and Jun Mohuang were talking in their divine senses. Xiao Jin could naturally hear them and join in.
“Humph. Ridiculous. I’m going to take back all their Gold-Swallowing Beast bloodline!”
