Chapter 291: Xiu'er

"Where is your father?" After parting ways with Xi Xi, Jin Rou and his newfound child, Xiu'er was taking a walk towards north where the nearest town called Light Town was. He couldn't help but ask the child a question which piqued his curiosity.

"My father died when they knew about the relationship between my mother and father." Xiu'er answered briefly and concised.

Jin Rou was stumped. This child could speak fluently? But why would he childishly stutter a while ago when he was talking to his mother?

However, Jin Rou didn't ask about this. It wasn't a big matter after all.

"Misty Ocean Sect, is it powerful?" Jin Rou asked. And found his question silly and couldn't help but laugh at himself. Why was he asking a child who wasn't even 5 years old yet?

"Mother said they are powerful." However, Xiu'er answered like a knowledgeable cultivator, "Since they have a living Eternal Progenitor, they must be really powerful."

"You seem to be knowledgeable about things." Jin Rou was amused by this. Just a child at a very young age, and was already like this? Just how rare was that. Not to mention, he even had a knowledge and idea about the peak existences of this world.

"I read so many books. That's what I do most of the time." Xiu'er said. In fact, thousands of books per day weren't enough to satisfy his craving for knowledge of the dao.

"Hoh?" Jin Rou's interest about this child rose more. Because of this, he activated his God's Eyes to check what kind of abnormalities this little guy possessed.

In actuality, Jin Rou wasn't planning to use it to this child. However, he couldn't help but be curious of him.

Then, Jin Rou stopped walking and upon noticing the halt of Jin Rou, Xiu'er also stopped.

Xiu'er couldn't help but feel uncomfortable with the golden eye of Jin Rou staring at him. It felt like he was stark naked in front of him, incapable of hiding anything.

Fortunately, it only lasted for several seconds before Jin Rou retrieved it.

"What a pleasant surprise." Jin Rou couldn't help but be shocked with what he learned, "You have the blood of a True Dragon. It looks like your father is a big shot in their clan."

Upon hearing this, Xiu'er revealed a horrified expression and took two steps backward.

This was the utmost secret of this child, that even his mother told him not to tell anyone. Even Jin Rou.

After all, the blood of a True Dragon, especially those young ones, were highly desired by many dying beings as it was said to extend one's lifespan for a few years. It could also become a major aid when breaking through.

Thus, their blood was highly sought-after. Though the True Dragon Clan was a major force not just anyone could reckon with, they didn't care about half-blood true dragons. So people usually go after half-blooded individuals.

"Don't worry, I don't care about your blood." Jin Rou chuckled, "If I want it, you have no chance of escaping from my clutches."

This made sense. Thus, Xiu'er calmed down. He really had no way of running if this man tried to go after his blood. Perhaps he just needed to swing his finger and he would be extracted easily.

Light Town. In a restaurant.

Finally, Jin Rou had reached the town with Xiu'er. And the first thing they went to was a restaurant as Jin Rou heard Xiu'er's stomach rumbling.

Fortunately, his grandmother gave him money that being used here in God's Realm, which were jades.

While they were eating, Jin Rou couldn't help but ask, "Are you familiar with Templar Clan?"

Xiu'er's body froze and looked at Jin Rou with fright, "Do you perhaps have a blood feud with that monster?"

Seeing this expression, Jin Rou was sure that Xiu'er knew them. He tried to ease him up and said, "I don't. I just have a matter that I want to discuss with them."

Xiu'er was still skeptical. After all, just how high Jin Rou's status was to warrant such a discussion with them? However, he still answered by what he knew, "Templar Clan is one of the major forces of this world. With 3 True Gods and 4 Progenitors, you can already determine how strong are they."

"En." Indeed, judging by this force, they were truly one of the big and major forces of this world. Xiu'er calling them 'monster' wasn't an exaggeration in the slightest.

"Where are they located?" Jin Rou asked.

"Who knows?" Xiu'er looked helpless, "Templar Clan has their own small world and no one knows their rightful coordinates as they change it every hour."

"Changing it every hour... Huh." Jin Rou could feel his head aching. Indeed, if this clan was changing their position every hour, it would be hard to pinpoint them as they have no permanent location. His grandmother had given him such a troublesome task.

Although he had ways to contact them, it would make him high profile and people might crowd every damn time. So, he had no choice but to find them manually and lowkey.

While Jin Rou was deep in thought, a group of people suddenly walked over to them. And a handsome man said, "This is Fairy Qing's personal seat. So please move away."

The tone was commanding, as if he's talking to slaves.

Xiu'er looked at the man and recognized him, however, he acted like nothing and continued eating. He wasn't full yet, he couldn't leave this food to waste here.

On the other hand, Jin Rou was still in deep thought, as if he didn't hear the man.

This made the handsome man furious and said, "I said move away from this seat since the owner has come. Or should I help you to do so?"

His tone was now threatening.

The beauty behind this handsome man, whose named was Fairy Qing, revealed a dissatisfied expression. However, she still made her way and talk to Jin Rou in an amicable way, "This Dao Brother here, I am Qing—"

"Enough nonsense." Jin Rou seemed to have returned to his reality and said, "We will leave once we're done eating. If you can wait, then you can have our seats."
