The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 897 The Past



Meishei pondered this for a long time. The scroll was too important for her. After all, her family and their wealth were poured into this scroll to get it. However, she was aware that she\'s going to attract many troubles with the scroll in her possession. How could she fend them off if she\'s powerless?

Not to mention, it might wake up those hibernating old foxes once the scroll came into light.

She could not, naturally, take care of such an important treasure.

"The protection you said, how powerful are you to protect me?" Meishei asked. Since the other party said he\'s offering up a protection, he must have something to assure her.

"It is more than you can imagine." Jin Rou smirked, "I know you want to get out of this place already. With a youngling like you, you must have wanted to venture out so bad now."

It was not right that she\'s hiding in this abandoned village. After all, she could still be found once that old man circulated his eye again. If she could hide well today, who knows of the next days?

Jin Rou dragged Sylvianna from his spot and said, "For example, this kid is from the Blackmauve family. She\'s under my protection as she is also under a deal with me."

Sylvianna roller her eyes and confirmed it, "Yes, what he said is true."

Meishei felt her world turned upside down as she covered her lips in shock, "You are a descendant of that legendary family? Oh my!"

It was truly a shock. She even added, "I thought the he\'s the only one who survived but who would have thought someone also did!"

Hearing this, Sylvianna\'s expression changed and asked, "What do you mean him? Someone other than me survived?"

Jin Rou smirked. He already expected this to happen. The Blackmauve was too prideful to just let one descendant survive the catastrophe.

"Yes, don\'t you know? I heard from my parents that he\'s an illegitimate child of the Blackmauve\'s Family Master of that time. I don\'t know the exact details, though. But he survived the calamity, but his whereabouts are unknown." Meishei answered truthfully without filtering anything.

A Blackmauve surviving descendant would be a hot topic and many would try to surely capture them. It\'s not a wonder that the illegitimate child would hide. Though he\'s an illegitimate son, the fact that a Blackmauve blood was circulating him was enough for those monsters to salivate.

"Impossible." Sylvianna, however, refused to believe it and said, "My father was good father. He never had affairs of whoever! He stayed loyal in the end!"

Seeing her agitated, Jin Rou tried to calm her down, "Those you heard were just rumors. They hold nothing unless we confirmed it. If you want, we can find that child and confirm it ourselves."

For Jin Rou, finding that child was easy as pie as he could name a few places that the child would be hiding off as long as he\'s still alive.

"No, I don\'t want to meet him." Sylvianna clenched her fist, "If he\'s an illegitimate, he\'s not worthy of being called a descendant. So why should I bother? He can just hide for all I care."

Jin Rou didn\'t answer again. Sylvianna was throwing tantrums and wouldn\'t accept anything unless it was what she believed the truth.

Meishei understood what the little girl was feeling. Even she would be like this when she found out that her father had an child outside of the family. It\'s not good, knowing their good reputation to the masses.

p Jin Rou decided to give her time alone and proceeded got back to business, "So what\'s your decision?"

Honestly, the scroll was something Jin Rou must have. It would be his greatest aide during the war against that god. But, he didn\'t want to force the girl to give it to him unless she\'s willing.

That\'s why he brought protection. The timing was right since the girl had just breakthrough from the realm. Her body was still stabilizing and getting used to the new realm. It would take days to months before it became fully stable.

With him, who would dare to hurt Meishei? His protection was the most valuable treasure one could afford. Many were even willing to trade their lives just to get his protection.

"I will agree, but please show me something to assure myself. We have been made of a fool in the past and learned my lesson. I cannot be fooled again, can I?" Meishei pleaded. She wanted to believe Jin Rou but he had to make her believe.

Left with no choice, Jin Rou showed his palm and feathers appeared circulating. They were glowing and glowing, as if ready to illuminate the dark sky.

"That..." Meishei almost fell down from shock as she said, "That\'s the symbol of our family\'s greatest benefactors! I\'m sorry for being rude, our benefactor."

She knelt down and introduced herself, "Meishei Clandin greets the Great Benefactor."

She felt like slapping herself many times due to her stupidity. Did she just doubt their family\'s benefactor, and the greatest one at that? She would be a sinner if her family knew this.

The Clandin Family was a prominent family of the central region. They were famous for being strict by their rules and whatnot. Of course, it\'s all in the past now.

"Rise. You don\'t need to look that way." Jin Rou smiled wryly, "Your family contributed well during my 5th Challenge. You should be proud of them."

An ancestor from the Clandin joined Han Li\'s lineup during the 5th Challenge. However, since that challenge was a failure, everyone except Han Li died. It was one of the brutal battles of the history. The sky was colored red because of the pouring blood of the fighters.

It was also one of the considerations of Jin Rou why he didn\'t want to force the girl to handover the scroll. After all, at the end of the day, it was theirs and their efforts to begin with.
