Just as Qin Luo and Tengteng were wreaking havoc, a gray spell suddenly attacked her.

They quickly trapped her, and no matter how much she struggled, she couldn't break free.

Finally, I was even captivated by a peculiar fragrance.

Before she fainted, she saw a pair of surprised eyes.

Staring straight at me, as if I were seeing an old friend.

The moment those eyes met hers, Tengteng swiftly hid inside Qin Luo's clothes.

Fearing that being discovered would force her to separate from Qin Luo again

The lake lord subdued Qin Luo and even threw a magical artifact at her.

To better protect her from the lake water, he then hurriedly approached the Gu Diao and asked...

Where did you find this person?

Gu Diao didn't hide anything and recounted the entire process of encountering Qin Luo and Wu Hua.

It was also specifically mentioned that the Martial Flower was different from it; its energy was undamaged and it had already taken human form.

But they didn't say that Wu Hua was still a cub, so that it could weigh the pros and cons itself.

The lake master understood the implication in its words: how should Qin Luo be treated?

Suddenly burst out laughing

"You don't need to bluff me. As long as I stay at the bottom of this lake, what can even a mythical beast do to me? Aren't you a beast too? A ferocious beast at that. Can you even use your power here?"

The Gu Diao was speechless; it truly couldn't use its abilities.

Upon reaching the bottom of the lake, it felt as if something was being suppressed.

They can't even defeat an ordinary monster, let alone the Lake Lord.

It turned its gaze back to Qin Luo.

"Her energy is very strong, and she can definitely cure your old ailment. I hope you will keep your word and release Le Dai."

The lake owner, upon hearing this, made a slight joke.

"I didn't expect you to care so much. You haven't fallen in love with it, have you? You are a high-ranking beast, and your clan will not approve. Break it off as soon as possible; a short pain is worse than a long one."

The gu eagle's claws clenched tightly together, as if its secret had been touched.

But they dare not admit it.

"The lake owner is overthinking it. It saved my life, and I can't just abandon it."

The lake owner could tell at a glance that it was stubbornly refusing to admit its mistake.

I'm not teasing it anymore.

"Le Dai has already gone back. The reason I sent you to the lake to catch people was just to test your sincerity towards Le Dai and see if you are worthy of her entrusting her life to you."

Upon hearing this, Gu Diao looked somewhat embarrassed.

The lake owner laughed jokingly upon seeing this.

"You don't need to be embarrassed, young beast, it's normal to fall in love."

"We don't have..."

"Alright, no, no. Although you have passed my test, the road between you will be fraught with difficulties. I hope you will not let it down."

After hearing this, Gu Diao could no longer suppress the smile on his face.

But it did not immediately go to Lorraine; instead, it continued to advise the lake lord.

"She is innocent; we hope the lake lord will release her..."

Before it could finish speaking, the lake owner left behind the five large characters, "I know what I'm doing."

Ignoring the group of monsters who had been electrocuted, he grabbed Qin Luo and left.

The Gu Diao stood there dumbfounded, completely baffled as to what the Lake Lord was thinking.

But feeling reassured that it wouldn't harm Qin Luo, it went back to find Le Dai.

The lake lord led Qin Luo to the palace and placed her on his couch.

Her eyes were fixed on her.

"They look so alike..."

He waved his hand, removing the makeup from her face.

Qin Luo's true appearance was revealed.

"They look even more alike with their eyes open; you could easily mistake them for biological children..."

She just kept watching, the vines hidden in Qin Luo's arms.

The vine felt a chill run down its spine; it had no idea what the monster was up to.

Could it be that it's taken a liking to its master? No, no, that's not right.

She must have taken a fancy to her master's father, but wasn't her father already dead?

Could it be some lingering emotional debt from when he was alive? Humans are truly complex!

It was having a brainstorming session when the lake owner pulled it out.

"Little one, are you her weapon?"

Tengteng was a little scared and curled up into a small ball.

It extended another vine and pointed, indicating that it was Qin Luo's weapon.

The lake owner thought it was cute and even reached out to touch it.

“You don’t need to be afraid. Your master looks like an old friend of mine. Could you tell me her story?”

Tengteng thought for a moment, then started spouting nonsense and making threats.

"She was abandoned as a child and taken in by an old woman. Later, she encountered a celestial being who enlightened her and gave me to her as a magical treasure. If you harm her, the celestial being will certainly not let you off the hook..."

The lake owner couldn't help but find its half-serious, half-joking boasting amusing.

“You’re not being honest, little thing. This is my territory. I can tell the truth from the lies at a glance.”

Tengteng: I was careless, but I can't back down.

"Anyway, Luo Luo is protected by an immortal, and the immortal loves her very much. If you harm her, you will really die."

This time, the lake owner didn't refute it, because it knew that Tengteng was telling the truth.

"I never said I wanted to harm her. I just wanted to know if she was the daughter of an old friend of mine."

Tengteng thought carefully about the names of Qin Luo's parents in this world.

"Do you know Qin Yan and Qiao Wanrou?"

The lake owner shook his head upon hearing these two unfamiliar names.

"I don't know him. My old friend is called Ming Yi. He looks very similar to your master. Think carefully, have you ever seen this person before?"

Tengteng knew she couldn't lie here, but she also couldn't tell the truth.

Only able to make up vague nonsense.

"I'm just a weapon; she rarely uses me..."

The lake owner agreed, acknowledging that a weapon is ultimately just a weapon.

You can't tell it everything, since you can't get any information out of it.

It then ignored the vines.

"Go have fun by yourself, I'll take good care of her."
