Ye Shuang hesitated for a long time before speaking: "Although I don't know where you got the information, it won't be an easy thing to solve your current predicament."
She picked up the bead and played with it in her hand. This was a wonderful surprise. As long as she had it, she could go into seclusion for a few years and not only recover from her injuries, but also regain her peak cultivation level. She might even be able to advance to the next level!
This is the fundamental reason why the cultivation world is so eager to acquire spirit beasts—they are treasures from head to toe! And unless absolutely necessary, they will never harm a person!
"It seems Master Ye has a bad memory and has forgotten that the only time you saved a half-demon beast, there was a young tiger beside you. That was me." The tiger raised its paw and leisurely licked the fur on its paw.
Ye Shuang narrowed her eyes. That was an old story, and at the time she was certain that there was absolutely no one around!
Since the tiger knew the inside story and was so sincere, she no longer needed to hide it.
Ye Shuang put the bead into the storage ring that had been hidden on her hand, and said solemnly, "The only way to stop you from becoming a demon beast is to recognize a cultivator as your master and use your master's spiritual power to slowly dissolve the malevolent energy on your body. During this period, you will be stuck between a demon beast and a spirit beast. As long as you stop harming people, you will eventually turn back into a spirit beast. At that time, you only need to break the contract between you and your master, and you can still be favored by the Heavenly Dao and naturally ascend to immortality."
"I am willing to acknowledge you as my master." The tiger stretched out its claws towards Ye Shuang, "Even a master-servant contract is acceptable."
Ye Shuang raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised: "Aren't you afraid that I won't let you leave then?"
"I believe you." The tiger extended its paw forward again. "You were able to let that spirit beast go back then, so you will certainly not break your promise in the future."
Ye Shuang reached out and grasped the tiger's paw: "Since that's the case, I will not betray your trust. I will sign an equal contract with you, and you can leave at any time after you shed your demonic beast form."
The tiger paused for a moment, then nodded solemnly: "Alright, during this time, as long as no one is harmed, I will protect you and obey your orders, no matter when or what!"
A faint white light flashed between the hand and the claw, and a simple contract of equality was established. The deep blue spiritual energy that was dissipating from the tiger's body returned to its control and slowly returned to its body. However, its eyes were still blood-red, a characteristic of its half-demon beast form.
"Although you trust me, I still have to tell you that even with this bead, it's unlikely you'll be able to transform back into a spirit beast in the short term." Ye Shuang looked at the tiger and said very seriously, "Even at my peak, it would take me decades, but I promise I will do everything in my power to help you transform back into a spirit beast."
The tiger nuzzled Ye Shuang's wrist with its head: "No need for further words, I've already said I believe in you."
Ye Shuang nodded, but looked at the tiger with a dilemma. Bai Xue could be considered a dog, but there was really no way to hide the tiger!
"Can you transform into human form now?" Ye Shuang remembered that spirit beasts could transform into human form once they reached a certain level of cultivation, but they couldn't maintain it for very long.
Tiger nodded, and the next moment, a man dressed in a black and blue outfit appeared in front of Ye Shuang. He looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old. His angular face was full of coldness, and his long, ink-black hair was smoothly draped over his back. He had a slender waist and long legs, and his muscles were well-proportioned, making him look very powerful.
