Upon hearing this, Chunhu Siqiong's eyes lit up, and she stopped in her tracks, but she was still very hesitant. "Can't I just take the bow and arrows?"
"no."
The three-legged golden crow decisively shook its head. Compared to the young lady, it preferred its master and wanted to stay by her side.
Actually, it's because its owner never cared about it. Once it leaves this place, it's as if it regains its freedom, so naturally it won't be soft-hearted.
"So how will you leave then?"
Upon hearing this, Chunhu Siqiong remained silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "The entire ruins have become my property, so you can't leave now."
"Heh, I'm the Golden Crow, I can go back after basking in the sun."
The three-legged golden crow laughed and said, "As long as you're not bound by a contract, no one can stop you from going wherever you want."
"Not bound by a contract?"
A glint flashed in Chunhu Siqiong's eyes, but she asked with great confusion, "Aren't you my father's pet? How come you haven't been contracted yet?"
“That was the master’s kindness; I followed him willingly.”
The three-legged golden crow spread its wings and said, "So, I am still free. Besides, what kind of being am I? How could I be so easily contracted?"
"oh?"
Chunhu Siqiong blinked her beautiful eyes, her gaze filled with pure innocence. "Is it difficult to form a contract with you?"
"Actually, it's not that difficult."
Looking into Chunhu Siqiong's pure, watery eyes filled with curiosity, the three-legged golden crow's guard disappeared. "Although I am an ancient being born since ancient times, it is very difficult for me to form a contract with the original body. Apart from gods, almost no one can withstand the backlash. But if it is my clone, it will be much easier."
"Is it really a contract if it's just a phantom of yours?"
Chunhu Siqiong blinked, her eyes filled with even deeper confusion.
"I am special because I do not have a physical body, so my clones and my original body are of the same lineage."
Faced with Chunhu Siqiong's curious expression, the Three-Legged Golden Crow had no doubts and explained even more patiently, "So, as long as you form a contract with me now, I will belong to someone. Of course, no one can form a contract with me except your master."
"Yeah, I don't believe it."
Suddenly, after hearing this, Chunhu Siqiong turned her head away and puffed out her beautiful little face, saying, "You're lying."
"No, no, I wouldn't dare lie to you, Miss. You must believe me."
Upon hearing this, the three-legged golden crow immediately became anxious and hurriedly stepped forward to explain, "Besides, what benefit would a villain gain from deceiving Miss?"
"I don't believe it."
Chunhu Siqiong shook her head, lifted her foot and walked away, "You liar, you might as well stay here and guard the ruins forever, I don't want to."
"Miss, I really didn't lie to you. What will it take for you to believe me?"
Upon hearing this, the three-legged golden crow quickly chased after it. It was desperate to go back, and Chunhu Siqiong's attitude made it very uneasy.
"Show me the proof, and I'll believe you."
Chunhu Siqiong turned around, her pure eyes gazing at the three-legged golden crow.
"Proof? How do I prove it?"
The three-legged golden crow was stunned. Could this thing even prove something?
"How would I know?"
Chunhu Siqiong turned her head away, muttering to herself, "I can't form a contract with you, so how do I know if what you're saying is true?"
"That's true. Miss, you've become a beast for some reason, so you really can't form a contract with a human."
