Evil Emperor's Wild Consort Chapter 171 Subduing The White Tiger 1

Gu Ruoyun’s statement made Wei Yiyi do a second take on the situation. She then studied the little fellow in front of them in detail.

The little beggar’s sooty face was colored with nervousness and worry. His fists were tight by his sides as he looked at the two women before him, determined and unbending.

“Interesting, eh?”

Wei Yiyi suddenly seemed to have realized something as she widened her eyes in surprise. “There seems to be an immense power sealed within the body of this boy. However, this power needs to absorb the spiritual energy within his body to survive, which explains his weak abilities all these years. What a waste of his great potential!”

Wei Yiyi shook her head in pity.

“No!” Gu Ruoyun shook her head. “Within him is not some sealed power. It’s a spiritual beast! I guess that this child probably had an accident when he was younger and sustained some serious injury. He should’ve died then but someone got a spiritual beast to inhabit his body, which was why he could continue to live. You were right, though; this boy’s spiritual energy is quite special and he would definitely be a genius within the field if he was given proper training. His success could even reach the heights of my father! Otherwise, this spiritual beast would never have chosen to save his life…”

Of course, that was what Zixie shared with her via soul telepathy.

Even so, the boy still looked at her in surprise, a slight spark of hope blossoming within his eyes.

“Do you really have a way to help me? I’ve heard that the Ghost Doctor is capable of everything and only the Ghost Doctor can save me! If this goes on, there will be no way for me to become strong in my whole life. You need to help me, please.”

Wei Yiyi laughed, “Oh, boy, I’m but a mere human. I’m not God and it’s impossible for me to be almighty so I’ll just be honest with you here. I really have no idea how to help you with your problem. It was not an injury or an illness after all! How do you want me to help you?”

Most importantly, Wei Yiyi was terrified of the spiritual beast residing within the little beggar. It was her instinct to refuse his plea for help; she did not dare to do otherwise.

The little beggar bowed his head in disappointment. The Ghost Doctor was already his last resort. Now, with this last strand of hope lost, did this mean that he would forever be a good-for-nothing?

No!

Absolutely not! If he can’t improve his powers, his family would face imminent danger….

“Actually, it is not impossible to save him.” A demonic voice was suddenly heard from Gu Ruoyun’s soul as if it was speaking right by her ear.

Gu Ruoyun’s quirked her eyebrows, “What ideas do you offer?”

“That’s easy.” Zixie seemed to despise Gu Ruoyun’s doubt. “You could just subdue the spiritual beast within him, no? Although the spiritual beast is not very strong now, it is still the White Tiger, one of the Four Divine Beasts.”

Wham!

Gu Ruoyun was struck by a bolt of lightning. Her eyes flew wide with shock.

What had Zixie just said? The White Tiger? One of the Four Divine Beasts?

The formation of the mainlands was lead by the Four Divine Beasts, namely the Azure Dragon, the Vermillion Bird, the White Tiger, and the Black Tortoise. In the beginning, the Four Divine Beasts each guarded a corner and maintained the structure of the lands. However, these Four Divine Beasts had mysteriously vanished one day and no one had seen them since.

Besides, the four countries within the West Spirit Mainland were named after the Four Divine Beasts. Was there a relationship to this incident?

“Girl, you’re the owner of the Ancient Divine Pagoda after all. The powers of the Four Divine Beasts are truly great but that was only to the common folks. When I was at my peak performance, they would never be my opponent even if they joined hands in their attacks. Sadly, my capabilities have dropped drastically nowadays. If you manage to subdue the White Tiger, you would be much safer in your future journey.”
