The Adventures Of The Young Master

"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?"

"Precisely." Jin Rou smiled, "In harsher terms, a full-blood is needed as a sacrifice for you to become one."

"This!" Xiu'er was horrified. It was obvious to his face as he became pale, "How can I do that..."

"That's why I asked you if you are ready for this." Jin Rou coldly said, "This is the only way and this is only possible because I am here."

What Jin Rou said was true. This method was only possible because he was here. After all, with the simplicity of this method, for sure the dragons there had thought of this too. Only, it was rendered useless and ineffective.

"Is there really no other way..." Xiu'er nimbly asked. Killing someone was too difficult for him. Take note, he was still a child with an age of 5. So, his reaction was normal.

"There is no other way." Jin Rou shook his head, "This is the simplest, fastest, and easiest route that you can take to become stronger. It's either you take it or leave it."

Silence permeated the room. As Elder Zuwo was still not back yet, the atmosphere here was heavy and uncomfortable.

Xiu'er was contemplating about it. Maybe he was trying to calculate his gains and losses in this notion. Or perhaps he was trying to picture himself if he could really do it.

Jin Rou let him think about it. After all, this was something that really needed to think over and over again.

More than ten minutes of silence had passed.

Finally, Xiu'er broke the silence and said, "I will do it."

The child decided to bite the bullet.

"Very good." Jin Rou clapped his hands, "You chose wisely."

"But where will we find a full-blooded one?" Xiu'er said, "As far as I know, the full-blooded dragons aren't able to get out of the clan due to they are precious. The old ones wouldn't let them play outside of their clan easily."

"That, I already found a target." Jin Rou chuckled, looking at Xiu'er with great interest, "Should we check him out?"

"..." Xiu'er couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of his saliva, "Okay."

Afterwards, Jin Rou flicked his fingers and the two disappeared from the tearoom.

A minute afterwards, Elder Zuwo returned with a tray of baked cookies his maid baked. But when he returned, he found out that the two were nowhere to be found.

But before the two left, Jin Rou left a communication item that could let Elder Zuwo contact them. Upon seeing this, the elder sighed in relief.
