Chapter 257 - 255. His Call III (1/2)

Third-person POV

Guang Liang widened his eyes in shock when Meiyun's figure suddenly disappeared by the touch of the teenage girl.

”What did you do to her?!” Guang Liang roared at the teenage girl.

The teenage girl nonchalantly turned her eyes to look at the furious Guang Liang and swept her hand in the air. A huge mirror-like projection materialized in front of them. Guang Liang looked at the image in the projection and there was a scene that he was very familiar with that was currently playing on the projection.

”This…this is when my mother was about to die. What did that have to do with me helping Master Sheng Jie?” Guang Liang questioned.

”This lady over here…” The teenage girl pointed at the white-clothed woman that was not far away from Meiyun. ”…is Master Sheng Jie.”

Guang Liang instantly froze in his spot.

”By saving Meiyun, you saved Master Sheng Jie as well. And by here, I came to promote you into low-ranked divine beast.” The teenage girl cut to the chase.

”What is the price?” Guang Liang quickly asked.

After watching the world went on for a few hundred years, Guang Liang found it difficult to trust someone especially someone that over a free gold like the teenage girl in front of him. Furthermore, there was nothing free in this life.

The teenage girl's smile grew wider, ”There will be no price for your promotion, you don't have to do anything. You did a good job and I, as one of the highest rank divine beast and Master Sheng Jie's one and only divine beast, decided to take you in as my disciple. What? You don't want to?”

”Of course I want to, but your offer is a bit too hard to believe.” Guang Liang narrowed his eyes.

”You are not wrong. To be promoted a few ranks in a second is a lifetime chance and the chances are very little but never zero.” The teenage girl grinned slyly.

Guang Liang quickly got her meaning, ”Fine, I take your offer.” he snorted.

”If there is nothing, then let's go. There are so many things we have to do.” The teenage girl turned around.

”Wait!” Guang Liang stopped her in her track before she could walk away.

The teenage girl looked over her shoulder and asked, ”What?”

Guang Liang bit his lips as he didn't know if it was right for him to ask her this question.

”Will I be able to meet my mother again?” Guang Laing asked with his eyes looking downwards.

The teenage girl stared at Guang Liang and was silent for a moment. Although she was one of the highest-ranking divine beasts, it didn't mean that she knew everything about the death and life circulation in the world.

But then she remembered the dark spot that lingered on Meiyun's heart when she saw her a few seconds ago.

”You will and it won't be long.” The teenage girl said.

”What do you me-” Guang Liang asked once again.

”By the way, my name is Xiao Bai. Call me Senior Xiao Bai. No more question, follow me.” Xiao Bai quickly cut him off before he could finish his question.

She turned around and opened a portal to the Heavenly Palace where she and Sheng Jie stayed. She entered the portal and Guang Liang followed her closely from behind

A calming scent of incense gently wafted over her nose. Her brows twitched and her eyelids slowly opened after more than three months being tightly closed. The first sight that she saw after she opened her eyes was a familiar painting on the ceiling of the bed.
