Chapter 7: Who Are You

Yu Xincheng conversed with that voice for half an hour, and now he is not as frightened as he was earlier

The green eyes appeared not far from Yu Xincheng, rustling, a wolf emerged one zhang away from Yu Xincheng

No, I will not give it to you. You might as well give up on that thought. Yu Xincheng recalled the jade pendant his father had given him, who had told him that no matter what, he must never give the pendant to anyone, even if it meant risking his life. Therefore, he firmly refused.

"Please help me, what can I do for you? I don't even know where my parents are right now, and I really want to find someone to help me, but who can I turn to for help?" Yu Xin said sadly.

Yu Xincheng remained silent, and the man did not disturb him. After a moment, Yu Xincheng looked up and said: "Alright, if you can help me find my parents, I will help you. How do you want me to assist you?"

Hmph, now that it has come to this, as long as you are dead, everything will still belong to me," the middle-aged man said with a cold snort

Hearing the words of the middle-aged man, Yu Xincheng stopped and looked at the person before him. Is it really as he said? Despite using so much strength, I couldn't break it. What kind of jade pendant did my father give me?

I do not know, but I am very eager to find out what is calling me, and what I possess that is worthy of such a call

Oh, is there such a thing? It has been a long time since such an event occurred. Do you know what is calling you here? the middle-aged man asked

"Little one, you need not be afraid, I will not harm you," said the voice

In the midst of fear, at that moment, a roar echoed... This sound seemed to possess a soul-stirring power of attack. The wolf, upon hearing it, could not help but retreat. After hearing this sound, Yu Xincheng's face turned pale, and he nearly collapsed to the ground, gritting his teeth to hold on. Once he saw the wolf leave, he let out a long sigh of relief

At this moment, a strong light appeared in the cave, and after a while, the light gradually faded, revealing a middle-aged man. This man appeared to be only in his thirties, but in reality, he was over several thousand years old. He then said: Little one, tell me, how did you come here

A quarter of an hour later, Yu Xincheng heard a rustling sound and knew that the wolf had arrived

"Who am I, does it matter?" the voice said again

The man saw Yu Xincheng stop and continued, "This is not an ordinary jade pendant; it cannot be broken by human strength, so do not waste your efforts."

Ah! With a heart full of intentions, I responded with a sound, yet I did not know what to say. If I said something wrong, the other party might just cut me off.

Hehe... interesting, not bad, not bad, worth calling you here. Let me tell you, it was I who called you here, because you possess something very important that is greatly beneficial to me

Yu Xincheng felt quite helpless, never expecting that he would truly die here

When Yu Xincheng ran away from that place, the wolf pack arrived at his previous location. Yu Xincheng himself did not know where he had run to, and he could not discern the direction. Howl... The sound of wolves echoed again, and at this moment, Yu Xincheng's heart was already filled with uncertainty.

"Did I not mention that by helping me, it would also benefit you? This benefit could greatly assist you in finding your parents; you might want to consider it," the man advised.

When he appeared again, he found himself in a cave, where a soft glow emanated. Where is this place, and how did I get here? After murmuring to himself, a voice emerged from within the cave

Just as he exhaled, a flash of light from a nearby cave entrance fell upon Yu Xincheng, and in an instant, he vanished from his original spot

I, I also do not know how I came here, it seems as if something is calling me." Yu Xincheng replied truthfully

"Even if I die, I will not let you have anything," he said as he took out a jade pendant from his bosom, preparing to smash it. However, to his great disappointment, no matter how hard he tried, he could not break it. The middle-aged man found Yu Xincheng's antics amusing, wondering how someone could be so foolish. "Sigh... Alright, you won't be able to break the jade pendant. I don't really want your pendant; I just said it is useful to me. I was just joking with you earlier, so don't take it seriously."

"You, who are you, a person or a ghost?" Yu Xincheng was quite puzzled, wondering why he could only hear the voice but could not see the person.

"Alright, I just want you to do me a favor, it will be beneficial for you as well, what do you say?" said the man
