Hearing the farewell in those words, Wang Zheng's heart tightened immediately.
"You're just a wisp of divine consciousness, what mission could you possibly have? Can't you stay? Even if you really have to leave, there's no rush. I still have so many questions to ask you..."
Although they only truly interacted for half a day, they had spent over a year inside each other's bodies. As for feelings... well... there really weren't any...
In reality, what Young Master Wang really thought was that this guy had enjoyed so many benefits within me and secretly absorbed so much of my spiritual energy.
Now that you've just acquired a physical body, you want to take advantage of it all and stay out of it? There's no such thing as a free lunch!
It's always been Wang Shao who takes advantage of others; when did it become someone else's turn to leech off him?
Putting everything else aside, this thing has been inside my body for over a year, so I should at least pay the rent.
Besides, he was hoping to rely on this ferocious beast to save his life if he encountered danger in the future.
If, as he said, he were discovered by some divine will or some powerful figure, he could at least help him fend off some of them.
However, Wang Zheng knew very well that he had no control over this divine beast clone, so he tried to persuade him with kind words and planned to play the emotional card.
Let's first keep this mythical beast under control, and then we can deal with it gradually later...
Fortunately, the ferocious beast had already separated from Wang Zheng's body. Although it temporarily resided in his sea of consciousness, it could no longer directly perceive the dark thoughts deep within Wang Zheng's heart as before.
Otherwise, if he had known that Wang Zheng had been plotting against him all along, he probably would have risked being reincarnated to fight this bastard to the death.
However, although this ancient demon did not want Wang Zheng to die suddenly, it was clear that if it weren't for his own safety, he would not care about Wang Zheng's life or death at all, and could even be said to be indifferent.
Therefore, he naturally wouldn't fall for Wang Dashao's act, nor would he be swayed by Wang Zheng's attempts to retain him.
He narrowed his crimson-gold beastly eyes and said slowly:
"Since you know that I am just a wisp of divine thought, you should understand that I will eventually return to my original body no matter what. My constant reincarnation is also to help my original body escape its predicament. This is the meaning of my existence!"
Wang Zheng didn't care about his nonsense.
"Stop talking nonsense. That original body is currently trapped in the river of time in the sealed area and has no way to get out. Where are you going to return?"
Besides, even if things really did go as you wish, what help would your current strength offer to your main body? You'd be better off continuing to grow with me for a while longer, and once you've accumulated enough strength, I can help you too..."
Although the ferocious beast can no longer sense Wang Zheng's thoughts, it's not stupid.
How could he not know what kind of person Wang Zheng was? Besides, when had this guy ever made a losing deal?
Therefore, he naturally remained unmoved by Wang Zheng's statement.
Seeing the disdain in the other party's eyes, Wang Zheng knew that the beast knew him inside and out, so this trick was probably not very effective. Therefore, he changed the subject and began to approach the issue from other angles.
“Wang Zheng, I’ll just call you Wang Zheng from now on. You’re thinking of just leaving, but have you thought about what will happen to your parents?”
According to you, in a sense, they are your biological parents.
"And I'm going back to Earth no matter what. After all, you're your parents who raised you with so much care for over a decade, and you're just going to pack up and leave without a care in the world! Have you even considered how they feel?!"
Hearing that Wang Zheng was so naive as to try to bind him with family ties, the beast laughed.
The narrow, long, beastly snout hinted at a disdainful smile, making Wang Zheng feel utterly insecure.
From the perspective of the ferocious beast.
Let alone the fact that it's extremely difficult for Wang Zheng to cultivate and travel back to Earth on his own, it's just wishful thinking and practically impossible. Even if it were possible, what kind of restraint could two humans, Li Liang and Wang Shengrong, have on him, this primordial divine beast?
At this moment, the face that looked exactly like Wang Zheng's was full of mockery, and he was completely unmoved by Wang Zheng's words.
However, after careful consideration for a long time, for reasons unknown, he finally sighed and said:
"You've enjoyed so much from me, so it's up to you to repay this kindness."
As for me, these past ten years have been but a fleeting moment. I am a primordial divine beast, a being born of nature; how could I possibly accept two humans as my parents?
Seeing Wang Zheng's stunned expression, the ferocious beast continued:
"Don't look at me like that. Try to put yourself in my shoes."
If you were to lose all your memories and become a tiny ant, and a pair of ants found you and cared for you for a few minutes, how much affection would you develop for them after you regained your memories? Would you still acknowledge that you were an ant?
Faced with the beast's questioning, Wang Zheng was speechless.
Admittedly, emotionally he could not accept such a statement, and even felt that such an example was completely inappropriate.
But the truth is what this beast said. If we look at it from its perspective, its actions don't seem wrong.
In his tens of millions of years of reincarnation, at the moment that vast memory was restored, Wang Zheng's personality was probably already scattered.
Perhaps this is the biggest difference between humans and mythical beasts?
Even ancient mythical beasts are not immune to this.
Seeing Wang Zheng remain silent, the ferocious beast thought its explanation had worked and continued:
"Leaving aside my problem for now, Wang Zheng's physical body was completely sacrificed long ago to help you connect with your main body."
So no matter what, taking care of your parents should be your responsibility.
Whether you stay on Earth or return to Earth is your choice, and you are free to decide for yourself…
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Zheng was still thinking about how to face the situation when he suddenly felt a blur before his eyes and found himself in the room that the temporary base had arranged for him to rest in.
The beast that had transformed into human form had already shown itself earlier, surveying its surroundings and even creating a spatial rift in front of it, intending to traverse the space and leave.
Seeing that this guy really left without a second thought, showing no regard for their relationship, Wang Zheng was extremely anxious.
Whether it was the data panel or the detailed accounts from the beast, they were all benefits that Wang Zheng could not possibly pass up. Seeing that the beast was about to leave on its own, Wang Zheng was unwilling to agree.
However, he had absolutely no control over the beast and could only watch helplessly as it left.
Something's not right. Why is he in such a hurry to leave? He's rushing around so quickly that he hasn't given me any time to react. Is he worried about something?
"He's scared? Yes, I understand! He's afraid I'll realize what's happening!"
