Chapter 58 [Bonus Chapter]CHAPTER 57 : The Xiangliu Tribe ( The Nine-Headed Snake's Tribe)

The lady appeared before Joey and said, " So, you are her master."

" Senior, my name is Joey. Yes, I am her master." Joey clasped his hands.

" Listen carefully boy, we were the members of the Xiangliu tribe. We were a small tribe. But the gods and immortals feared us for our power and strength. We lived on a planet called the Blue planet. Our patriarch, who was my father, left us to look for a cure for my illness but he never returned for 5 centuries. Soon our strong warriors also group together and also leave the planet afterward to search for the patriarch. " She said.

" Only my big brother remained behind to look after the tribes. One day my big brother met a beautiful lady. They fell in love and married after a year. A month after their marriage, one of the god's clans suddenly attacked our tribe. My brother fought alone with a dozen of their experts. He even killed 5 of them. Then, suddenly they chanted a spell. After that his cultivation dropped rapidly, he knew that he couldn't make it. So, he used all his remaining strength and used our tribe's forbidden skill to send me to this planet. But, my illness started to deteriorate more after giving birth to my child. A year later, I died here. Fortunately, the forbidden technique that my elder brother cast on me trapped my soul inside my body for some reason. " She continued her story.

" Senior, does your tribe's planet belong to the heavenly realm?" Joey asked.

" No, that place is not even from this galaxy. Joey, my kind, rarely chooses a master in our whole life. If we choose then we will follow that person for our whole life. Also, we will choose to die if the master dies. So, my daughter's fate is already in your hands. " She explained further.

" Don't worry about her, I will take care of her," Joey said.

" You misunderstand something. What I mean is that she will only mate with you?" The lady explained.

"What! Is it true?" Joey exclaimed. He felt goosebumps and started sweating profusely.

" Boy, don't make that face. She will transform into her human form after breaking through the lvl 6 soon. She is my daughter, so she will be beautiful just like me. Also, you are not much different from us. I can smell the dragon's aura from your blood. Oh, I finally understand, why did my daughter agree to follow you? It's that aura. " The lady explained. Her body seemed to become distorted more and more. And part of her legs started to vanish.

" Senior, what is wrong with your body?" Joey asked.

" This is my soul body. I will vanish shortly. Before that, I have a favor to ask from you." She told him.

" Okay, tell me." He replied.

She looked at the sleeping nine-headed snake once and said, " Please take care of my daughter."

Suddenly, Joey thought of something.

" Senior, I have a way to keep your soul intake. If you agree then I can do that now." Joey suggested.

"Then, what are you waiting for? Start quickly." She replied quickly.

Joey then took out the longbow made by the Bojing and said, " Senior, if you agree, you can stay alive as my longbow's soul."

" Alright, do it quickly. I am about to vanish."

Joey then started chanting a mantra first at his bow. And at the end of the chant, he blew the air toward her soul. Then, suddenly the longbow vibrated and her soul was sucked inside it. This mantra was one of the mantras his master taught to him.

After a while, Joey asked, " Senior, are you okay?"

" I am alright. But I feel a little weak. " She replied from inside the bow.

" Senior, may I know your name? " Joey asked.

" Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Ji Lan." The bow replied.

" Senior Lan, what will happen to her?" Joey asked.

" She will sleep like that for some time. Let's leave this place first. I kind of hate this place." The bow said.

Joey chanted a mantra. Then her giant body disappeared and appeared on his hand as an arrow. Then he put it inside the front side of his rope. He also hanged the bow on his shoulder.

Joey then continued his journey. He returned to the direction he came.

" I have to return to the bamboo forest within two weeks. " He murmured.

A spaceship was currently flying rapidly toward the Ancestral Armament World.

Twenty men were inside the spaceship. Nineteen of them were from the Qinglong family under the leadership of Qing Fai. The other one was Elder Qiulong. He looked like a youth in his early 20s but in truth, he was more than 1000 yrs old.

" Elder Qiulong, I know you care about your disciple. According to the agreement with your patriarch, you shall help in this mission. This time, we need to bring Princess Bailong safely using any means. Please, understand." Qing Fai said.

" Young master, Qing Fai, I will help you. But, don't try to use any dirty tricks on her." Elder Qiulong replied with a serious face.

Bamboo forest, the Evergreen world

A middle-aged man was currently fishing on the pound using a long fishing rod.

" Only three days to go. How is he?" The man murmured and kept fishing there.

" Son, I feel that you are going to have a big fight soon. I will see how much you have improved in this one year. " He said to himself. He kept sitting beside the pond while fishing with the rod.

Two days quickly passed like that. But Joey still didn't come.

On the third-day afternoon, a youth appeared inside the bamboo tree. He ran toward the center of the forest.

He appeared quickly beside the middle-aged man. He bowed at him.

" Master, your disciple is here." Joey greeted him. At the same time, the man caught a big fish and threw it toward him.

" Son, you have grown up. Go and cook it inside the kitchen first. I have been waiting for you here without eating and drinking for a month. I am starving and also miss your cooking. " He said to him with a smile. Joey nodded and brought the fish inside the bamboo house.
