2953 Are You Going To Betray Me? (1/2)
Before the candle dragon finished speaking, Fan Qianshi was already pulling its overhead light again eagerly. ”Di Hao? Can you see Di Hao?”
The candle dragon proudly replied, ”Yes, I had a coincidental encounter with a spell from his soul.”
”Can you lure his soul here?” Fan Qianshi seemed to have a new idea.
The candle dragon was perplexed. ”What are you going to do with the child's soul?”
”I only asked if you can do it.”
”It depends if the opportunity presents itself. I will only be able to do it if he uses the same spell.”
”Give it a try then; try to lure his soul here and trap him.”
The candle dragon was quite reluctant, though. It had its own principals. ”An adult's personal grudges should not involve children. What are you going to do with him after I lure his soul here? If his soul is away from his body for an extended period of time, it will cause irreversible damage to his health.”
”Are you going to betray me?” Fan Qianshi asked in an ice-cold tone.
The candle dragon was intimidated by his ferocity, so it surrendered to him. ”All right, I will try, but there is no guarantee.”
Fan Qianshi gave its overhead light a gentle stroke. ”You only have to do your best. You are the only one I can trust now.”
”Don't try to sweet-talk me. You are also one to dismiss others when their job is done,” the candle dragon said, obviously immune to his lavish compliments.
Fan Qianshi did not deny. ”I have used many people and sacrificed many lives, but I have never hurt you, have I?”
To which the candle dragon answered, ”But you chose to raise me in a herd of donkeys, all because I was a gift from your master.”
”Can we stop talking about the past? All right, let's see what you can do. If you perform well, you will be rewarded,” Fan Qianshin sternly said.

When Gu Xijiu woke up, Di Hao was still sleeping soundly.
She did not alarm him and decided to get out of bed first.
Most of her attention was spent on her daughter, as the naughty little girl was quite attached to her. Her son, in return, was slightly neglected by her lack of attention.
