BXBX NOVEL Chapter chapter 476
“Then there’s no doubt about this then, that man on Purple’s back must be the second son of Lord Kai Jiang. What a heartless dog. Shame that A’bone didn’t ask him for the real reason for coming to the ancient forest back then.” After listening to the whole story, Lan Caier was all pumped and ready to fight.
“A’bone, try this first, can you still understand Little Squeak’s word?” Unlike her big sister though, Ling Yue wanted to test something else after musing over the situation.
“Chief?” Like the wild girl herself, everyone else including Little Squeak too was all confused over the request.
“Squeak~”
That scared the daylights out of A’bone, “I… How can I not understand what he’s saying?”
“It seems that my guesses are correct. The one from the Kai Jiang Manor is here for the inheritance of the Beastial Sect. It is very likely that they have already come into contact with it during A’bone’s absence, that’s why the animals are not resisting their invasion.” An unprecedented level of seriousness could be seen on Ling Yue’s face.
Initially A’bone still had her doubts over this theory, but after trying several more times with Little Crow as well, that’s when she had to accept it when even the nearby wild birds were nothing but chirps to her ear.
Not only that, the wild girl also lost her ability to command the other animals within the jungle after further testing. They even showed hostility at some point when she tried to get close.
“No! I can’t lose the inheritance, otherwise the ancient forest and the other spirit beasts would….”
Despite having the inheritance from the Beastial Sect in the past, A’bone had never realized how important it was to her and only took it as a supporting factor. Now that she’s lost it, it soon donned on her its in fact more important than her own life!
“This is not time to be rash. First, we must think of a way to prove my theory. Since I don’t know much about the power of inheritance, we will have to bother the He Lao brothers again.” Ling Yue’s been suspicious of this ever since her big sister explained how the giant elephant was willingly escorting someone else.
Now that she’s confirmed it with A’bone that she has indeed lost her power, it’s now absolutely imperative that they figure out the cause. Otherwise, there’s no other way they could solve the crisis in the jungle like this
Chapter 476 “The Lost Power (p2)”
It was another few days before the He Lao brother managed to rush over after receiving the paper crane message.
“Big Boss, it’s been a long time.” Ling Yue never expected the first brother He Lao Dai to come in person.
“It really has been Sir Thirteen. I heard it from my second and third brother already. My sincere apologies for not being there in your time of need.” He Lao Dai still hasn’t shown enough gratitude for his second brother’s prosthetic leg yet so this would be the perfect opportunity for him.
Through some back and forth, the senior soon got the gist of the whole story with details.
“The power of inheritance has disappeared? This kind of thing is possible. In fact, in some special cases, the inheritor of a sect’s inheritance isn’t just one person. Take our Swift Finger Sect for example, the inheritance is shared between the three of us brothers together. So, my theory is that Miss A’bone’s power must have been taken away from her by someone of superior strength that’s also been introduced to its power. Otherwise, there’s no other explanation for the circumstances at hand.” After some careful analysis, this was the only conclusion the brothers could come up with.
According to He Lao Dai’s explanation, forcibly taking the inheritance from someone requires several conditions to be met. In addition to being talented in controlling the animals, the other party must also possess a personal belonging of the original user. Only like that could the transferring ritual be carried out.
“That heartless man had once cut off a pang of my hair when I was asleep once. After I caught him afterwards, he used his sweet words to twist the story and that he only wanted a momento of me. I was blindsided back then, I truly was. Why did I have to be so stupid! He planned it all from the beginning, the very start….” Immeasurable regret filled the wild girl’s heart, both at her own foolishness and innocence.
“Then that’s it! Your hair is the same as your flesh and skin so the other party must’ve used that to activate the ritual. Fortunately for us, the ritual can’t be completed overnight and requires seven full days before Miss A’bone’s power completely disappears. Before that happens, we must destroy the altar that they are using. Only like that can we return everything back to its original state. And according to my calculations, there should be three days left for us to move.” Breathing a sigh of relief, He Lao Dai wants to raise everyone’s spirit because there’s still hope.
This ancient jungle forest may be big and difficult to search, but it’s still something to go upon.
“Regarding the matter of locating the secret altar, I’ve already got a response to it. As for you A’bone, you need to stay calm during this period and think about where we must go to find the ruins of the Beastial Sect, that is your first and foremost mission for us to crack the secret there.” After deliberating the options at hand, Ling Yue didn’t waste any time to come up with a plan and began ordering everyone around.
