"You mean, about me?"

They had been imprisoned under the shrine for over a hundred years, yet they still possessed such powerful strength.

His right hand gently streaked across the blood beast's bound four limbs, and the light blue flame appeared in his hand before slowly disappearing. The iron chain that had been bothering the blood beast for a long time, disappeared just like that.

The blood beast raised its limbs excitedly and knocked on the door. After confirming that the iron chain that had bound it for a hundred years was finally gone, it finally let out a long cry to express its joy.

However, this long cry of joy suddenly reminded Gu Ling Xue of her current situation.

Hurriedly pulled back the blood beast, in an attempt to block the mouth that was several times bigger than his own body, Gu Ling Xue's face showed some worry.

"Master."

Gu Ling Xue retreated back, and started to carefully inspect the house that imprisoned the blood beast.

Before arriving at the divine hall, Gu Ling Xue had always been brought here with her eyes blindfolded, so she was not clear about the path they had taken to reach this place.

However, after entering the divine hall, what Gu Ling Xue saw was a completely different scene from what she had imagined.

There was no clear sign, no clear indication that it represented the temple.

In Gu Ling Xue's mind, images of the divine hall were just a long, pitch-black staircase, and a bottomless canyon.

She didn't know where the long stairs would take her, nor did she know what secrets were hidden in that pitch-black gorge.

In a short moment, before he even had the chance to think, he was brought by the blood beast into the similarly pitch black room in front of him.

Gu Ling Xue frowned, the nine fires in her hand lit up in time and threw it around the wall, illuminating the originally small and narrow space.

However, at this time, Gu Ling Xue realized that what she thought of as a narrow space was actually a completely different world.

Gu Ling Xue was stunned in place, surprised to see the originally small space instantly expand, and the short period of time she took couldn't calm her mind.

The blood beast walked forward and looked towards the direction of Gu Ling Xue's gaze. As if it could see the doubt in Gu Ling Xue's heart, it spoke out.

"Master, what you see is not the real temple."

Hearing that, Gu Ling Xue retracted her head and looked towards the blood beast, his eyes filled with unconcealable suspicion.

"What do you mean?"

"This place is only my consciousness. The world that you and I are in is also only the scene that my consciousness wants you to see." After saying that, the blood beast seemed to be afraid that Gu Ling Xue would punish it, it timidly lowered its head, and waited for Gu Ling Xue's reprimand.

Unexpectedly, what awaited them was a wave of silence.

The blood beast looked at Gu Ling Xue, only to see that the latter was still silently staring at him, waiting for him to continue speaking. Only then did the blood beast dare to continue: "This space was created by me, but it is exactly the same as the place where the shrine imprisoned me."

"That's why I can be saved by my master and become his contract beast." Pausing, the blood beast seemed unwilling to admit this fact. However, it could only accept its fate and say.

Hearing that, Gu Ling Xue came to a realization, but, her expression became even more serious.

If it was as the blood beast said, this environment was created by his consciousness, then, how powerful would the blood beast itself be?

But if that was the case, how could the powerful blood beast become a prisoner?

Suspicion filled the eyes of the blood beast. It was as if it wanted to see through her, but was unable to.

As if he understood the look in Gu Ling Xue's eyes, the murky look in the blood beast's eyes suddenly dimmed. Following that, its raised head gradually lowered, as if it had thought of something sad.

A heavy sigh echoed in the empty darkness.

"It's a long story."

"There are some things that I am not suitable to tell you right now. You only need to know that you and I have a deep relationship. In addition, a large part of the reason why I'm imprisoned here is because of you. "

Hearing that, Gu Ling Xue's brows furrowed even more.

How is this possible?

I have only been in this world for a short two years, and I have always been brought here from the Xilan. How could this be related to a monster that is locked underground?

Thinking about it carefully, Gu Ling Xue suddenly thought of a possibility.

Could it be the previous owner of this body?

"It's like this. However, you only need to know that I am not weaker than that stinky brat outside. It was just a coincidence that I was trapped here. "

"Coincidentally, the reason I came in was because of you, and the reason I'm able to leave right now is also because of you."

If what he said was true, that he had been imprisoned here for over a hundred years because of her, then was the origin of this body as ordinary and lowly as in his memories?

Also, there was an unknown source of the seal. Just what was going on? How could she, a mere daughter of the Gu Family, possess such a powerful seal?

All of these, were like a ball of fog that lingered in Gu Ling Xue's mind and could not be dispersed for a long time.

"Master?"

The blood beast stood by Gu Ling Xue's side for a long time, but seeing that the latter could not reply, it could not help but to ask.

The sudden question interrupted Gu Ling Xue's train of thoughts. After being stunned for a moment, Gu Ling Xue regained her senses and said: "Do you know where the Emperor of Xilan is?"

"I heard that the guy in the shrine is keeping an eye on the Xilan Emperor.

The blood beast thought for a while, then showed an expression of indifference: "Don't worry about that. Master, if you want the Emperor, I can just help you bring the blood beast back."

Hearing that, Gu Ling Xue looked suspiciously at his four limbs that he had just released, her eyes filled with distrust.

Seeing that Gu Ling Xue had taken care of her, the blood beast raised its four claws arrogantly, then said with a look of disdain: "If it wasn't for the fact that I was injured back then, how could this small, broken down cave accommodate me?"

"Master, don't worry. I'm still not putting Hall Master Lao Shi in my eyes."
