Chapter 1550 - The Transformation Pool
Thinking it over, Jiang Chen decided to let Whitey come forward.
Whitey arrived shortly thereafter. He had a glacial air about him. Sitting down beside Jiang Chen, he didn’t even throw a glance at the golden roc and the three high-level monsters.
It was easy to notice that the golden roc and the three high-level monsters were obviously a little nervous as Whitey walked in.
They were astounded to see Whitey so obedient.
“I’ve something to ask you.”
Jiang Chen reached for Whitey’s head. Running his fingers through Whitey’s hair, he stopped at the neck area.
“What’s that?” Jiang Chen asked coldly.
The elephant monster said emotionally, “We thought if Whitey could survive the first round of the Sovereign Path, we’d be able to strive for a chance for him to go to the Transformation Pool. But we didn’t expect what happened later.”
“What a wonderful story.”
Jiang Chen didn’t believe him at all. Although there was no loophole in his narration, he knew from what had happened to Whitey that the truth was not as beautiful as what they’d presented.
“Besides, even if he stays with you, it won’t be 100 percent safe for Whitey either.”
The golden roc added, “Quite a few monsters in the Realm of Monsters would like to see Whitey die.”
It turned out there were many tribes in the Realm of Monsters.
Whitey was a member of the golden roc’s tribe. He was the God of Carnage whom they wanted to train.
Similarly, other tribes had their own Gods of Carnage to train as well.
“Once the Gods of Carnage of other tribes transform into human figures successfully, the first thing for them to do is to get rid of Whitey.”
“Lagging one step behind means lagging behind always.”
Jiang Chen was not as insistent in his opinions as before when he’d learned this. He said, “You mean you’ll strive for the chance to take Whitey to the Transformation Pool?”
“Exactly. Once we succeed, he’ll be okay even if he doesn’t want to stay in the Realm of Monsters.”
The golden roc couldn’t help but grow excited when he saw Jiang Chen’s interest piqued.
“Okay!”
Jiang Chen agreed immediately. Under Whitey and Xiao Nuo’s surprised gazes, he added, “But I’ll go with you as well, with Whitey.”
The golden roc and the three high-level monsters were all shocked.
Whitey felt relieved, but Xiao Nuo looked more serious.
“Striving for the chance to use the Transformation Pool is like a trial. All kinds of monsters from the Realm of Monsters will take part in it. Do you really want to go?” the golden roc asked, doubtful.
“Yes, I really want to go,” Jiang Chen said decisively.
“We’ll need to confirm with our leaders.” The golden roc looked like this was tricky for him.
“Go ahead. Don’t waste more time here.”
Xiao Nuo asked him to leave immediately.
“We’ll come back here tomorrow.”
The golden roc knew he should be patient, so he left with the three high-level monsters.
“Are you going to the Realm of Monsters?”
As soon as the monsters left, Xiao Nuo knitted her eyebrows. She was angry.
“Yes.” Jiang Chen braced himself to answer.
“Okay.”
To his surprise, Xiao Nuo didn’t argue with him. Instead, she agreed.
“All strong people must go through ordeals. I’m the one who needs to change my mindset. For me, you are still the First Young Master of the Sacred Zone, who needs others’ protection.”
Xiao Nuo said after a sigh, “And you’re a person with a great future. I don’t believe you’ll die easily.”
“That’s great!”
Jiang Chen felt delighted that he had such an understanding wife.
“That being said, give me your two swords,” said Xiao Nuo.
“Why?”
Jiang Chen asked her this question while unsheathing the Heavenly Fault Sword and the Red Cloud Sword.
“Don’t worry about it. You’ll know when you leave,” said Xiao Nuo.
The next day, the golden roc came to the main peak again.
“Jiang Chen, about your visit to the Realm of Monsters, the tribe won’t agree or disagree. But I have to confirm with you again. Have you thought it over? You should know where you’re going. It’s the Realm of Monsters.”
