Lin Dong was genuinely shocked. He had never imagined that something as awesome and high-end as the Stone Talisman could grow rats.
He was instantly disappointed! This big black rat had kept his nerves on edge all day.
Yet upon hearing Lin Dong's startled cry, every hair on the black rat's body stood on end. Its tiny eyes glared at Lin Dong in fury, and it was so enraged that it actually spoke human words!
"You're the big black rat! Your whole family is big black rats!"
Little Mink was utterly indignant. As a dignified Heavenly Demon Mink, when had he ever suffered such humiliation? "Huh? It can talk!" Lin Dong jumped in fright and took half a step back... The rat had become a spirit! The rat's bristling Aura even made him feel a trace of fear.
"You ignorant little bastard, I am a Heavenly Demon Mink, not a rat!"
Little Mink puffed up his tiny eyes and said furiously. The way that big black rat glared at people was hilarious no matter how one looked at it.
Pfft! Lin Dong could not hold back his laughter! Heavenly Demon Mink—what a domineering name, but you look just like a rat.
However, Lin Dong only dared to mock him inwardly and did not dare say it aloud again. Seeing how sensitive the Heavenly Demon Mink was to the words "big black rat," Lin Dong worried that if he said it again, the creature might leap up and bite his knee! "No matter what kind of mink you are, tell me why you're here."
Lin Dong was highly vigilant, especially when it involved the Stone Talisman. He proceeded to interrogate the Heavenly Demon Mink.
Their first meeting was anything but pleasant!...
Wu Yun rode Bai Yun into Ironwood Manor.
From afar, a fiery-red figure carrying a little girl came bounding over joyfully.
Qing Tan, seated atop Xiao Yan, cried out in delight.
"Ah, Brother Wu Yun, you really came back!"
She had been playing around the manor with Xiao Yan just now when Xiao Yan suddenly ran toward the entrance.
"It's Qing Tan. You've grown quite a bit taller!"
Wu Yun felt a little stifled... Once a little girl grew taller, she would no longer be a little girl! Qing Tan wore a short skirt, and her two slender, fair little legs swung atop Xiao Yan. Her features were exquisite, her hair was tied into two braids, and she was unbearably cute.
"What do you mean? Is it bad that I've grown taller?" Qing Tan pouted, unhappy with Wu Yun's tone.
As they spent more time together, and as Wu Yun often appeared alongside Lin Dong, Qing Tan gradually began to regard Wu Yun as an older brother just like Lin Dong. She grew closer to him and developed a different sort of feeling.
Unlike Lin Dong, who had grown up with her since childhood and was like a real older brother, Lin Dong was a blockhead. Wu Yun, meanwhile, would tease her from time to time and praise her for being cute and pretty. At her budding age, Qing Tan could not help secretly feeling delighted.
Now that Mad Blade Martial Arts School and the Lin Family had practically formed an alliance, the younger generations of both families often played together. Wu Yun had clearly become the most outstanding among the younger generation.
Many admired and adored Wu Yun. Qing Tan even knew that Sister Lin Xia, the most beautiful and captivating girl in the clan, secretly had feelings for Wu Yun.
That was why she had gradually begun to care about what Wu Yun said!
"Sigh, if Qing Tan has grown taller, that means she's grown up. Once she grows up, she'll have to marry. This brother can't bear to part with little sister Qing Tan!"
Wu Yun sighed, acting as though Qing Tan were about to get married at any moment and forcing out a melancholy expression!
"Brother Wu Yun, what are you saying? Qing Tan... Qing Tan isn't getting married!"
Qing Tan's adorable little face flushed red. Nervously clutching her braids, she began playing with her hair.
Wu Yun said, "Every girl has to marry someday. It's only a matter of sooner or later. Our Qing Tan is so pretty that there will definitely be lots of suitors. I wonder which brat will get lucky in the future?"
"Hmph, I'm not getting married, I'm not getting married! I want to stay by Brother Wu Yun and Brother Lin Dong's side forever!" Qing Tan declared loudly, as if she were already troubled by marriage.
However, Wu Yun noticed the subtle detail.
In the past, whenever Qing Tan mentioned Lin Dong and him together, she would always put Brother Lin Dong first.
Now, Brother Wu Yun was finally first.
"Alright, alright, enough of that. I was just teasing you. Get married if you want, and if you don't, that's fine too. At worst, I'll support you for the rest of your life."
Wu Yun smiled. Teasing Qing Tan was simply fun.
In the original story, wasn't Qing Tan, that little girl obsessed with her brother, unmarried for her entire life?
After finishing the original story, Wu Yun had felt that Lin Dong was truly rather heartless.
He clearly knew what his little sister felt, yet he kept leading her on without taking responsibility or letting go.
What difference would one more woman make to the dignified Martial Ancestor? It was not as if he lacked that little bit of stamina?
Wu Yun really disliked that about him! So from the moment he began interacting with Qing Tan, Wu Yun had consciously teased and flirted with her, trying to make her shift her dependence away from Lin Dong.
At the very least, he would not be like Lin Dong and chill the heart of someone who loved him! Between the one you loved and the one who loved you, Wu Yun believed one must cherish the person who loved you.
"Hehe, Brother Wu Yun, you said it!"
Qing Tan immediately brightened up, becoming happy again.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Wu Yun nodded frantically, then said,
"Where is Brother Lin Dong? I need to see him!"
Qing Tan's little face immediately fell, and she pouted. "The moment you arrive, all you know is how to look for Brother Lin Dong!"
"He's in the little dark room!"
Wu Yun rubbed Qing Tan's little head. "I need to see Lin Dong about something important!"
"You can play with Bai Yun!"
Leaving Bai Yun behind as well, Wu Yun headed to the little dark room to find Lin Dong.
Knock, knock, knock!
"Second Brother, I'm back!"
Inside the little dark room, Lin Dong, who had been communicating with the Heavenly Demon Mink, quickly recalled his spiritual power. "Big Brother is back."
At that moment, the Heavenly Demon Mink transmitted his voice to Lin Dong, shouting frantically, "Lin Dong, whatever you do, don't tell your big brother about me, understand? Never! You must remember, don't mention me."
Lin Dong was puzzled. "Why? Big Brother knows about the Stone Talisman, and he's a good person worth trusting. He would never harm me!"
The Heavenly Demon Mink anxiously said, "He might not harm you, but that doesn't mean he won't harm me. I'm worried that if he learns about Lord Mink, he'll covet my Demon Spirit!"
"Your Demon Spirit? What benefit does it have?" Lin Dong's eyes lit up as he asked!
At present, he had no real friendship with this big black rat. Both sides were still wary of each other.
"Uh... no benefit... no benefit..." The Heavenly Demon Mink hurriedly explained. Inside the Stone Talisman, it kept slapping its own mouth hard with its little mink paws.
Still shaken, it thought, In a moment of panic, I let the wrong words slip. I almost told someone how to eat me!
After a while, seeing that Lin Dong genuinely seemed unaware of such things, it secretly let out a sigh of relief. It had only been awakened recently and was extremely weak. Forget Wu Yun, who seemed incredibly mysterious and was possibly a Reincarnator—even Lin Dong, this weakling, could easily devour its Demon Spirit. Thus, by nature, it had been cautious and had hidden in the shadows, not daring to reveal itself.
Who would have thought that, in its panic, it would speak human language and let the wrong words slip out! "In any case, don't tell your big brother about my existence. Consider it a favor Lord Mink owes you!"
This big black rat was so afraid of Big Brother... Lin Dong was filled with doubt. When he had spoken with the big black rat earlier, its attitude had been completely different. Yet the moment it heard Big Brother was coming, it became so obedient.
"Fine, I'll agree for now, but you must not hide anything from me again!" Lin Dong curled his lips as he transmitted his thoughts into the Stone Talisman.
By then, he had reached the door.
There was no more response from within the Stone Talisman! The Heavenly Demon Mink completely concealed its Aura and hid in the darkest corner of the Stone Talisman, trembling in fear! Lin Dong opened the door. "Big Brother!"
Wu Yun looked around the room. "Why did it take you so long to open the door? Did you have some breakthrough in cultivation?"
Lin Dong could not help laughing. "No, no. A big black rat ran into the room just now, and I was trying to catch it!"
I recommend a book, "Douluo: Starting by Saving the Female Pope, Then Breaking Through the World." It's a very nice Douluo fanfic, with some seriously wild driving. It's a thrilling read!!!
