บท 98: Red-eyed Giant Snake's Deal

[I want you to make a contract with me, being, a soul, blood, or spirit contract with me.]

The snake's words shocked the cub and Xiao Ling. 

"Wha… Why?" Xiao Ling tries to suppress her emotions.

[It is the only way to get out of the core array. If I made a contract with a human, I can get out of here, be free and get my revenge.] Answered the snake.

"Why do you think I will help you?" Xiao Ling did not want to help the snake. However, if the snake gives her something that can make her hesitate, she might agree, even though it's a snake.

[I will serve you as a loyal contracted beast for one hundred years.] The struggle in the snake's eyes did not go unnoticed for Xiao Ling and the cub.

Maybe is the last hope the snake has. Xiao Ling suppressed her fear and asked.

"Can you tell me, who do you want revenge against…?"

The snake sighed. [I will tell you, but it is a long story…] 

Curiosity filled Xiao Ling's heart.
