Chapter 299: Method (1/2)

”And who is this man you're talking about?” Xiu'er raised his brow and asked. Then, he was suddenly struck with realization and looked at Jin Rou, ”Don't tell me, you are that man?”

”Who else?” Jin Rou chuckled, ”No one else but me.”

Xiu'er didn't want to believe Jin Rou. However, he could feel that the latter wasn't trying to pull a joke. So he raised a question, ”What can you do?”

Xiu'er knew that he was under this man's custody. So, he had no choice but to follow. After all, his mother told him to always stay obedient to Jin Rou. That's why he wanted the other party to give him a reason to believe, or at least, a ground to stand.

”Well, if you want to save your mother, you need to believe me. You have no choice, either way.” Jin Rou answered, ”Remember, you are under my care. Your mother entrusted you to me, so I have to do my part.”

”...” Xiu'er nodded, agreeing with Jin Rou. What the latter said was reasonable and logical. Whether he believe Jin Rou or not wasn't up for a debate. After all, he didn't have a choice in the first place. Besides, Xiu'er doubted that Jin Rou would bring him harm. If he would, he would have done it already sooner.

”What should I do?” Xiu'er decided to trust Jin Rou this time.

”The first step, perhaps, is you need to be a Full-Blooded True Dragon.” Jin Rou contemplated before answering.

”Full-blooded True Dragon...?” Xiu'er revealed a pale expression, ”That's impossible. You know that I'm only a half-blood. How can I become a full-blood one?”

”Xiu'er, remember this.” Jin Rou said, ”Not because you don't know, means that it's impossible. The world is full of mysteries, you certainly don't know what's possible and impossible. After all, it all depends to the person.”

”It all depends to the person...” Xiu'er was engraving these words to his mind.

”That's right. It all depends to the person to believe or not to believe. The mind works that way. We are the ones that deem things to be impossible or possible.” Jin Rou nodded.

”Then it's possible for me to become a Full-Blooded True Dragon...?” For a reason, Xiu'er seemed to have been refreshed.

”Of course. Impossible things can be possible depending on your belief, luck and outer major variables.” Jin Rou gave his affirmation, ”The real thing here is, are you up for that?”

Considering the tender age of this child, Jin Rou was thinking of giving the child a bit of time to grow. After all, what he was required to do was something that he needed to do personally.

”I'm ready.” Xiu'er seriously said, ”Whatever it takes, I need to do this. So please tell me how can I become a Full-Blooded True Dragon.”

Xiu'er had dreamt of this in the past. After all, full-blood true dragons were beasts being revered even by the masses. If he became one, his strength would surely rise to another level by leaps and bounds. Unlike being half-blood, whose blood were highly sought for by dying beings. Not to mention, they were an outcast of the True Dragon Clan.

”Very well, I admire your courage.” Jin Rou nodded, ”In order to become a full-blooded one, you need to drink one whole blood of a Full-Blooded True Dragon.”

”...” Xiu'er didn't know what to say, ”You mean... I need to drink the blood of a full-blood wholly? Suck him dry?”
