"Brother Tian, there might be a Titled Douluo around. We shouldn't be reckless!"

Xiao Wu dropped her previous lively demeanor and advised him.

"A Titled Douluo? If one really existed, he would have appeared by now!"

Li Daotian smiled and said.

He reckoned Tang Hao was still lying in the house, drowning his sorrows in alcohol.

Tang Hao had planted the Blue Silver King here, figuring it was foolproof.

He would never expect trouble to arise one day.

Hearing him put it that way, Xiao Wu figured it made sense.

Besides, she sensed no powerful auras nearby.

She grew even more curious.

Could it be that she had guessed wrong?

"Xiao Wu, what do you think would happen if I uprooted this Blue Silver King and ate it?"

Li Daotian crouched beside the Blue Silver King and said with some anticipation.

Upon hearing those words, the Blue Silver Grass, which had been gently swaying, began to tremble slightly.

It clearly understood Li Daotian's words.

"Huh, this grass actually knows how to move."

As Li Daotian spoke, he reached out and touched the Blue Silver Grass, but it frantically thrashed, seemingly unwilling to let him caress it.

"You're quite good at putting on airs in front of your young master."

Li Daotian delivered a slap, striking the stalks of the Blue Silver Grass.

The Blue Silver Grass shuddered and dared not continue dodging.

Li Daotian reached out and stroked it, feeling that the grass was quite soft.

"Tang Hao, oh Tang Hao, this is your Blue Silver King, and now it belongs to me. If one day I see the Blue Silver King take human form again, perhaps she can be of use to me!"

An evil thought formed in Li Daotian's mind.

He had originally intended to wreck the Blue Silver King, but after thinking about it, perhaps he could keep this grass and play with it slowly in the future.

"Xiao Wu, it's quite docile after all."

"Is it really a 100,000-year Soul Beast?"

Li Daotian stroked the Blue Silver King while speaking.

"Definitely, but it's injured and will probably take many years to recover."

Xiao Wu said.

"Brother Tian, what do you plan to do?"

Xiao Wu was a bit curious. Although she was also a 100,000-year Soul Beast, she was now directly loyal to Li Daotian and didn't care about the other's life or death at all.

"Keep it. When I have time, I'll come stroke it."

Li Daotian didn't plan to kill the Blue Silver King so easily; that would be far too boring.

"Brother Tian, if you don't want to kill it now, you'll definitely need it once your soul power breaks through to a certain realm!"

Xiao Wu felt that Li Daotian didn't really need the power of a 100,000-year Soul Beast for the time being.

Even though there was a Soul Bone on the other party!

However, Li Daotian's current strength was too weak. Even with a Soul Bone, he wouldn't be able to exert much power, and it might draw the attention of others, inviting disaster.

After all, Soul Bones could be plundered.

Li Daotian smiled and quietly communicated with the system.

[System, detect if there is anything stealable from the Blue Silver King?]

[Ding! Detected stealable items from the Blue Silver King: 100,000-year Soul Beast Right Leg Bone, loyalty. Please choose an item to steal, or give up?]

Li Daotian hesitated slightly.

Sure enough, A Yin still possessed a Soul Bone, but he knew very well that once he stole the Soul Bone from A Yin, the other party would surely die, withering instantly with no way to survive ever again.

If he only took her loyalty, it wouldn't be nearly as severe.

"Forget it, I'll just steal A Yin's loyalty and make her my slave!"

Li Daotian made his decision.

In this way, perhaps this was the best destination for A Yin.

He just wondered if Tang Hao would fly into a rage upon learning of this.

How would Tang San face this in the future?

Yet he didn't care to manage any of that.

[Steal the other party's loyalty.]

[Ding! Theft successful. The host will now possess the other party's loyalty. The target will remain forever loyal to the host, becoming the host's faithful servant, with everything centered around the host.]

[The Blue Silver King is undergoing a master-recognition response. Please soothe her.]

Li Daotian quickly received the feedback.

He nodded slightly. With the Divine Thief System, he could do a lot more things.

At that moment, the Blue Silver Grass on the ground began to tremble slightly. A moment later, it gently bent its stalks and leaves, as if kneeling before Li Daotian.

"Haha, what a good girl!"

Li Daotian reached out and stroked the Blue Silver Grass. This time, not only did she not refuse, but she grew extremely close to him.

She kept rubbing against his palm with her stalks.

"She really is well-behaved."

Li Daotian stroked the Blue Silver Grass and said with utter satisfaction.

Watching from the side, Xiao Wu felt somewhat baffled.

She simply couldn't comprehend why the Blue Silver Grass had suddenly undergone such a massive transformation.

For some reason, a trace of jealousy welled up within her.

"Brother Tian, she's just a blade of grass. There's no need to treat her so well."

Xiao Wu walked up and tried to pull on Li Daotian.

"Haha... Xiao Wu, are you jealous?"

Li Daotian looked at Xiao Wu's slightly dissatisfied little face and said smugly.

"Brother Tian, I am not."

Xiao Wu shook her head, masking her small emotions.

"Xiao Wu, go outside. I need to have a few words with this grass!"

Li Daotian suddenly spoke up.

"Ah? Brother Tian wants to whisper sweet nothings to her?"

Xiao Wu pouted her lips, even more displeased.

Could it be that Li Daotian had taken a fancy to a blade of grass?

"I'm just saying a few words, don't let your imagination run wild."

Li Daotian reached out and patted the quirky girl, speaking somewhat sternly.

"Fine."

Xiao Wu nodded obediently and had no choice but to walk toward the cave entrance.

After stepping out of the cave, Xiao Wu wanted to poke her head in and listen.

"Don't eavesdrop!"

Li Daotian's voice drifted out.

Xiao Wu hurriedly pulled her head back and stood in place, not daring to eavesdrop any further.

Inside the cave, Li Daotian said to the Blue Silver Grass: "From now on, you are my maid. Obey my instructions in everything, do you understand?"

The Blue Silver Grass gently bowed her stalks.

"Keep your distance from Tang Hao from now on, but be even stricter with your demands of him."

"He is not a man worth entrusting your life to, but a ruthless and merciless wretch!"

"To a certain extent, he used you!"

"As for how to handle it, decide for yourself!"

Li Daotian looked at the Blue Silver Grass and spoke word by word.

Naturally, these words could not be let Xiao Wu hear.

Otherwise, Xiao Wu would definitely grow suspicious.

Upon hearing his words, the Blue Silver Grass was slightly stunned, then seemed to understand, and nodded heavily toward Li Daotian.

"Just remember that. I'll come see you when I have time."

Li Daotian said another sentence, spoke no more, and turned to walk out.

The Blue Silver Grass immediately bent her stalks to see him off.

Outside the cave, Xiao Wu was feeling somewhat sullen. Seeing Li Daotian come out, she asked with burning curiosity: "Brother Tian, what on earth did you say to that Blue Silver Grass?"

Li Daotian said casually: "I just said a word or two, telling her to stay put and that I'll come visit her again in the future."

"Really?"

Xiao Wu found it hard to believe.

"Would I lie to you?"

Li Daotian pinched Xiao Wu's cheek.

"Let's go, we're heading back first. There probably isn't anything left here."

Li Daotian had originally wanted to use A Yin to drive Tang Hao berserk, but now he would have to think of another way.

"Brother Tian, are we just going to leave like this? Why don't we transplant that grass somewhere else first?"

Xiao Wu, however, had her own ideas.
