Chapter 099: The Soul-Restraining Bell

The Word Spirit’s emotions can infect others.

     Big Bai’s cultivation base may have fallen to the Nascent Soul stage after molting, but it can still easily affect Bai Chengyu's state of mind. Even Bai Su, who’s next to it, is more or less disturbed.

     Bai Chengyu looks feral, and he charges forward without any thought. As he sets about to strike, of course Su Tingyun's body falls, and it seems that Bai Chengyu has found a target. His attacks go straight towards Su Tingyun's body. Big Bai’s form immediately turns incomparably huge, becoming something like a big net that is about to swallow Bai Chengyu into it. But just then, Bai Su shouts loudly: "Granny wants you to take care of her body."

     There is urgence in his voice, "Granny is not dead, her soul just went somewhere. She only trusts you, so she asked Ren Yi to take her body to the bottom of this cliff and give it to you, so you can look after it."

     Although he doesn’t know what happened, Bai Su reacts very quickly. He understands that Big Bai is going crazy because of Su Tingyun, and only she could stop its rampage. As he’s shouting, he also throws out the rattle in his hand to hit Bai Chengyu, knocking him back several feet, so that his attack does not fall on Su Tingyun's body.

     He jumps forward using his toes, and even uses a hint of spiritual energy to fly up and catch Su Tingyun's body. But just as his fingertips reach it, he sees that Big Bai's body is compressed down, but it’s now covered in gray. With a cloak fluttering behind it, Big Bai shoots Bai Su away, and wraps Su Tingyun completely. As soon as they land, it glares at Bai Su fiercely. However, seeing that its color has turned gray, Bai Su knows that Big Bai at least accepts this answer.

     Only then does Bai Chengyu regain his senses. He rushes to speak, but just when he’s about to say something, he suddenly shuts his mouth.

     He has accompanied his Lord for more than three hundred years. Although he had been a bit stupid in the past, he could still read and understand face and body language. At this time, his Lord’s movements, expression, and his eyes, they’re all clearly telling him that something is wrong and he cannot speak freely.

     Following that, his Lord slightly moves his head, then asks aloud: "Did Granny ask you to send her body down?"

     Bai Chengyu nods repeatedly.

     Isn't that true though? The the last thing Granny mentioned is Big Bai!

     He’s not lying, Big Bai could feel it. The color of its body gets a bit lighter again, and the two leaves on its head, that have been standing on end, slowly go soft.

     Bai Su can't completely lie to Big Bai, otherwise it will definitely sense it, so he says: "Granny is good at evacuating her soul, you know that, right?"

     Big Bai's two leaves tremble.

     Seeing Big Bai nod, Bai Su sighs in relief. He knows that Su Tingyun’s soul could move and possess a body, she even possessed Ren Jia's corpse back then. But he’s not sure if Big Bai also knows about it. Since Big Bai does know, it is much easier to convince it.

     "Granny’s soul went into someone else, but this body is her favorite, just like you. She didn’t feel at ease handing it over to someone else, so she hoped that you would keep it for her. Can you take good care of her?"

     Bai Su says all that with a solemn face.

     There is a Space in the body of the Word Spirit Beast, which can accommodate all things in heaven and earth, much more precious than those so-called Mountains and Rivers Spaces. If you place this body in a normal Space Treasure, it would require Black Ice or a protective Formation to prevent it from rotting. But if Big Bai stuffs her into its body, nothing at all will happen to it. As long as Su Tingyun's primordial spirit continues to exist, this body will not rot.

     "Can you take good care of her?" Bai Su's voice is repeated by the orchid tongue grasses, and for a while, the same question echoes all over Sealed area, "Can you take good care of her?"

     Big Bai's body is chubby to begin with, but at this moment, it nods seriously, head low enough for the two leaves on it to be upside down.

     "Chirp, chirp, chirp." Big Bai can’t agree like a Word Spirit with a pair, it could only make this sound. The chirping at this time doesn’t have a merry tone, it is very serious. It is answering Bai Su, "I am sure that I can take good care of Granny."
