Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 313 Bai Ling Returns
As night was approaching, and Xiaobai was still asleep, Lin Chen saw the Grand Elder return. Liu Gu quickly stepped forward and asked, "How is he?"

The elder then recounted the whole story, leaving Liu Gu and Lin Chen both stunned.

Did they just release them like that?

"Could they be lying to us?" Liu Gu wondered.

"Gu Ning is the Imperial Advisor after all, he shouldn't," the First Elder said, shaking his head.

"That seems to be true." Liu Gu nodded, and the Grand Elder added, "Let's observe for a while."

Gu family
When Gu Ning walked in, the members of the Gu family greeted her with cupped hands.

Gu Ning's current status is self-evident.

When Gu Ning went inside, he saw Gu An waiting for him.

Gu Ning glanced around and said, "Such a big matter, and the Gu family patriarch didn't even personally intervene. It seems you have a very high status in the Gu family now."

Gu An remained unmoved and looked at Gu Ning, saying, "The waters of Tiandu are not to be muddied by just anyone."

"There's no need to alarm the ancestor about this matter."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ning couldn't help but smile and said, "The Binding Immortal Technique requires several powerful beings to cast it together, and these people are probably not in good condition right now."

Gu An's expression remained unchanged. He led Gu Ning to the inner room and said, "There are some things you can know, but you can't say. You've crossed a line."

Gu An also knew what Gu Ning was resenting.

Gu Ning originally planned to use the demonic beasts to coerce the forces of Tiandu into compromising, but Tian Shu Pavilion did not compromise.

On the contrary, Gu Ning was forced to compromise due to the current situation.

Otherwise, there would be no way to stop this monster's rampage.

When the door opened, Gu Ning saw Bai Ling, who seemed to be fast asleep.

"What is the Binding Immortal Technique like?" Gu Ning asked.

"She hasn't lost her memory; it's just that she has an obsession with it."

"What obsession?"

"Save the Ancient Kingdom of Cangling".

"What's the reason?"

"Because her teacher, Zhong Nan, is such a person, willing to fight for the Cangling Ancient Kingdom. She was moved by Zhong Nan's spirit, so she also chose to join him." Gu An's smile grew even brighter as she finished speaking.

Gu Ning took a deep breath; this Immortal Binding Technique was indeed terrifying.

Outsiders wouldn't be able to tell at all.

Gu An checked the time and said, "She'll be awake soon. The script has already been explained to you, and it's your turn next."

Gu Ning nodded.

After Gu An finished speaking, he left. Nearly half an hour later, Bai Ling finally woke up. She looked around in confusion at first, and finally focused on Gu Ning.

"Gu Gu Ning?"

Bai Ling came to her senses and said, "Greetings, Grand Preceptor Gu Ning."

"Don't be nervous." Gu Ning's attitude remained calm and indifferent, just like always, and he even said with some impatience, "I'm here to take you back."

"Where is this?" Bai Ling looked around.

Gu Ning said naturally, "You were attacked by monsters when you went out of the city, but luckily the Gu family came to your rescue."

"I was attacked by a monster?" Bai Ling tried hard to recall, and quickly remembered that she had indeed been attacked.

"Now that you're healed, they notified me to come and pick you up," Gu Ning said calmly. "Let's go."

"Okay."

Bai Ling quickly got up. She felt no discomfort or abnormality and followed Gu Ning. Sure enough, she saw that this was the Gu family home.

Gu An was waiting at the door. Bai Ling thought for a moment, then cupped her hands and said, "Bai Ling, thank you for saving my life, Gu family."

"We are at war now, and the human race is one. Miss Bai Ling, you are too kind."

After Gu An finished speaking, he added, "Now that the demonic beasts are attacking Tiandu, the Imperial Preceptor is very busy, so I won't stay any longer."

Gu Ning nodded and left with Bai Ling.

After walking a bit further outside, Bai Ling noticed that something was wrong with the sky. She quickly asked, "Has the sky been attacked by demonic beasts?"

"It's not just Tiandu; all other parts of the Cangling Ancient Kingdom have also been ravaged by war, including your hometown, Nancheng," Gu Ning said. Bai Ling was extremely anxious upon hearing this.

Gu Ning didn't continue, but instead asked, "Are you going back to the National Academy, or somewhere else?"

"I"

"The Grand Elder of the Spirit Academy and your teacher have arrived in Tiandu. They are currently at the Wu family's residence. If you wish to visit them, you may leave on your own," Gu Ning said.

"The teacher is here?!"

Bai Ling's eyes lit up when she heard that Liu Gu had arrived.

Gu Ning nodded, understanding what choice Bai Ling would make before finally leaving.

After Gu Ning left, Bai Ling couldn't wait to head towards the Wu family's location.

The next morning, Xiaobai finally woke up.

Lin Chen examined it and found no problems with his bloodline.

"After a few days of rest, we'll purify it again."

Lin Chen already had a plan in mind.

Xiao Bai will awaken a new skill at level 52, and Lin Chen also hopes that Xiao Bai can evolve into an even better skill.

"I wonder when this 'cow-reading technique' will be usable."

Lin Chen also maintained his daily practice of the mental cultivation method.

Although the contract for this cow technique was successfully completed, it still requires perseverance to master.

Just as Lin Chen was deep in thought, a voice suddenly rang out from behind him, as clear as an elf's:
"Lin Chen!"

Hearing the call, Lin Chen turned around and saw Bai Ling.

It has been almost three years since I last saw Bai Ling. She has become more mature and composed, and her temperament has improved.

However, when she saw Lin Chen, she still acted improperly, jogging up to him with a smile and saying, "You really came? Are you here to take me back?"

Lin Chen was taken aback, glanced at Bai Ling, and didn't know how to speak for a moment.

At this moment, the elders and others heard that Bai Ling had returned and rushed over.

Bai Ling immediately straightened up and bowed, saying:
"I've met the Great Elder!"

"I've met the teacher!"

The Grand Elder and Liu Gu nodded slightly, looking Bai Ling up and down.

The two glanced at Lin Chen, hoping to get some information from him, but Lin Chen gently shook his head, indicating that he had just met him as well.

"What's wrong?" Bai Ling asked, puzzled when she noticed them all staring at her.

"How did you get back?" the elder asked.

Bai Ling then recounted the whole story, including how Gu Ning brought her back from the Gu family.

"Do you remember when you were attacked by the monster?" Liu Gu asked.

"I remember, I think I was indeed attacked by a monster and fainted," Bai Ling recalled, even able to recall the monster's appearance, saying, "It should have been a spider demon."

The three elders exchanged glances.

This is different from what the scouts reported.

Shouldn't Bai Ling have been attacked by the Gu family?

but
It's impossible for the Gu family to reveal that they attacked Bai Ling.

But the reason for attacking Bai Ling remains to be seen.

However, this is wartime, and the most urgent task is to ensure safety. As long as Bai Ling returns safely, that will be enough.

"Liu Gu, tomorrow you should take Lin Chen and Bai Ling back to Tiandu first. You can't be of much help here," the Grand Elder said to Liu Gu.

"Yes."

Liu Gu and Lin Chen nodded, but Bai Ling was a beat slow to react before finally saying yes.

This scene also caught Lin Chen's eye.
