The Azure Dragon is a divine beast.
Once the pig-like insect is passed down, it will grow into an adult Azure Dragon.
At its peak, the Azure Dragon was something that Sheng Ning, a cultivator at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage, could not withstand.
Sheng Ning nodded slightly at the little white dumpling's words.
Her decision to put the worm back into her consciousness space was only made on a whim.
She released her divine sense to search for an open space, but before she could find a suitable place to put the pig-like insects down...
A sudden, urgent knock on the door interrupted her thoughts.
Frowning, Sheng Ning opened the door. Upon seeing who it was, she looked surprised. "Sir? What brings you here so late at night?"
The storyteller raised his hand and wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead.
He swallowed hard, glanced back at the empty space behind him, and said, "I have something to tell you, and it's urgent."
After Sheng Ning stepped aside to let him in, the latter saw wood chips scattered on the floor of the guest room and asked in surprise, "They've been here?"
Sheng Ning still felt guilty after it was discovered that the pigworm had crushed the table.
He raised his hand to touch his nose, about to explain, but stopped after hearing the storyteller's words. "Who?"
During the day, when the storyteller encountered the young city lord and his gang in the alley, he felt only fear.
After finally getting him home, he sat down, drank a cup of tea to calm down, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
He thought of Sheng Ning and his group, all dressed in moon-white sect robes.
The other two men were different; one of them was dressed in a dark purple robe.
The other person was dressed in a bright red robe and a dark green waist belt.
Isn't he the flamboyant man that those people were talking about?
And they also mentioned wanting to harm that little girl...
The deeper the storyteller pondered, the more his back was soaked with cold sweat.
When he rushed over, this was the scene he saw.
Fortunately, Sheng Ning did not appear to be injured.
After listening to the storyteller's words, a dark glint flashed in Sheng Ning's eyes.
He moved a chair for the person next to him, and after she sat down, he saw her slightly part her red lips, "Sir, are you saying that someone wants to steal my contracted beast?"
The storyteller wiped the sweat from his brow. "They didn't come? That's good, that's good."
Then something else occurred to him, and he widened his eyes, "That dragon is your contracted beast?"
"It's over! We're doomed!"
"If that dragon were just your pet, that would be fine, but it's your contracted beast. What if they find out?"
It should be noted that the contracts signed between cultivators and spirit beasts are extremely domineering.
The contract owner can abandon the contracted beast at will, but the contracted beast can only obey the contract owner.
If those people find out that Sheng Ning and Jiao have formed a pact, they will definitely use all sorts of means to force Sheng Ning to break the pact.
Compared to the storyteller's anxiety and fear, Sheng Ning, sitting to the side, appeared calm.
How many of them are there?
"Seven...eight!"
Sweat streamed down her forehead as if it were free. Seeing her calm demeanor, the storyteller hurriedly got up to pull her away.
"They are all the young city lord's men, and they are very skilled. Young friend, you'd better run! It's already dark, and they'll be here soon!"
Sheng Ning took in his anxious expression.
A smile played on her lips as she asked, "Run? Why would you run?"
"They are all Nascent Soul cultivators, with the lowest cultivation level being the late Golden Core stage. Although you have formed a contract with the dragon, there are so many of them, and they are backed by the young city lord..."
The more the storyteller spoke, the more convinced he became of his own reasoning.
There are quite a few people in Shengning as well.
But those people were the young city lord's men.
If a fight breaks out, and the young city lord sends people, how will Sheng Ning and the others withstand it?
It's clear the storyteller meant well; otherwise, he wouldn't have come in the middle of the night to remind him to run away quickly.
but......
"Haven't they always been like this?"
"What?" The storyteller was taken aback.
Sheng Ning tapped her fingers lightly on the armrest of the chair, repeating what she had just said, "Every time they see something good, they use this method to 'get' it?"
The storyteller nodded and then shook his head. "They are the local tyrants of Saluo City. If they want something, they will use their title as the young city lord to get it and send it to the city lord's mansion."
"If we don't give it to them, they will take action."
This answer did not surprise Sheng Ning.
She nodded, indicating that she understood, but did not get up and ran away with the storyteller.
Seeing her sitting so calmly, the storyteller was extremely anxious.
In particular, Sheng Ning hadn't closed the door properly, and he vaguely heard voices coming from downstairs.
'They're here.'
The little white dumpling's voice rang in my ears.
Sheng Ning didn't expect them to arrive so quickly. With a slight raise of her eyebrows, she moved her fingers and the door, which was not yet fully closed, shut instantly.
At the same time, most of the candles in her room went out.
Only two candles remained in the darkness, their flames flickering, as if the people in the room were already asleep.
"Sir, don't worry. If they speak to me politely, I won't hurt them."
Storyteller: ......
What did he come to see Sheng Ning for today?
How come he remembers coming here to pull Sheng Ning away as quickly as possible?
Why is she saying things that won't hurt anyone now?
The storyteller looked at the person next to him with a head full of question marks.
Amidst a series of soft footsteps, Sheng Ning noticed several shadows appearing at the doorway.
