The Last Primal

972 Chapter 972 - Regrets



The burly man continued.

"When that woman arrived here back then, she barged into the majestic grand hall without a single word and took the sacred Saraca Flower of the religious sects that was placed on display above before turning to leave."

"Heh, that old monk naturally refused to allow her to do so and tried to stop her. But in the end, he was sent flying with a single slap from the woman! Hah!"

At that point, the burly man seemed to recall the events of that day and could not help but roar in laughter, causing the chains on his body to rattle endlessly.

If not for the shackle of the chains, that burly man could even leap in joy.

Aiden was sweating just from hearing it.

Number 13 was truly way too savage…

He went on for more. "That old man was struck silly by the slap and forgot about his seclusion training for silent meditation. When he saw the woman about to leave, he crawled up from the ground and said, "Female guest, please hold on… HAHAHA!"

Aiden looked somewhat embarrassed.

He wanted to laugh as well.

However, he was now part of the religious sects, and the old monk was considered as his master.

He could not laugh.

Therefore, he could only stand on the spot and hold himself back with tightly pursed lips. He clearly had a hard time holding back as his face flushed a shade of tomato red.

The burly man was truly unstoppable when he spoke about everything that happened all those years ago, rambling on continuously.

Aiden listened quietly at the side.

It was as though he could see everything that was described happening right before his eyes.

As he spoke, the burly man suddenly lamented and sighed. "It's all thanks to that woman, otherwise, I…"

Suddenly, he stopped speaking entirely.

Aiden frowned.

The burly man was clearly hiding something instead of continuing.

Just as Aiden was going to ask about it, the burly man changed the topic and spoke about how majestic and powerful he was in the past, overwhelming everything in his way!

The burly man took a full hour just to talk about his first battle after stepping foot into the outside world. He was so excited that his saliva flew everywhere and what's more… he wasn't even finished!

"To think that this red-headed ghost would be so talkative."

Aiden got increasingly impatient as he listened.

Apart from everything about Number 13, he was no longer interested in everything that the burly man said later on.

Aiden could not help but interrupt, "Red-headed ghost, you mentioned previously that you have a way of helping me to repair my Inner Core?"

"That's right."

The burly man nodded before glaring at Aiden. "Don't interrupt me! Wait for me to be done talking! What's the hurry!"

"I'm not interested."

Aiden scoffed coldly before turning to leave.

Cling! Clang!

Suddenly, the sound of chains rattling echoed behind him.

This time around, they sounded somewhat strange.

Aiden turned around instinctively.

That single look almost scared the wits out of him!

The place where the burly man was initially chained at was now empty!

There were only a series of chains lying still on the ground!

"This…"

Aiden was completely stumped.

Suddenly, he felt a shadow flash above his head, and the muscles on the back of his neck tightened – he was lifted up by a powerful and massive arm!

However, the scary thing was that he could not move at all!

Thereafter, the voice of the burly man sounded once more.

"Let me tell you, those chains are just for show. Do you really think that I can be restrained by a few rusty, metal chains?"

"Who do you think I was back in the past…?"

"I've waited for so long at the bottom of this valley. Now that someone is finally here to talk to me, where are you trying to go?"

"Initially, there was a little monk who was quite nice and came to accompany me often. Later on, I don't know what happened but he never appeared again…"

Aiden felt like his head was about to explode with countless ants crawling all over it.

He finally understood why little Morwyn was so frightened and instructed him not to come to the backyard of the grand hall.

At the same time, in the praying chamber, little Morwyn placed his palms together with a sympathetic expression and sighed. "Junior Brother Mind Jin, good luck…"

Lifted by the burly man, Aiden was like a weak duckling and was completely helpless!

Although his martial was crippled, the power of his physique and bloodline was still present.

Yet, he was completely immobile after being grabbed at the back of his neck by the forceful fingers of the burly man and could only watch helplessly as he was brought to the depths of the cemetery!

"How could this be?"

"Those chains could not lock down this red-headed ghost at all?"

"Since the chains can't hold him down, why is he still residing in this cemetery foolishly?"

"Does master know about this?"

"What's his relationship with this red-headed ghost?"

Instantly, questions flooded Aiden's mind and he was in a state of chaos.

Coupled with the incessant ramblings of the red-headed ghost about useless stuff, Aiden truly felt like his brains were going to explode!

Bang!

Aiden was tossed to the ground. Just as he was about to rise, the sound of chains ratting echoed and he found himself restrained by a thick chain.

Boom!

He circulated the power of his bloodline and struggled with all his might!

Nothing happened!

Although the chain looked rusted, it was extremely resolute and impossible to break free from.

His power of bloodline was like a rock sinking into the ocean – it had no effect on the chain at all!

Aiden's eyes flashed with a cold glint and his body crackled. His bones and tendons sounded together and his entire body shrank!

Tendons Transformation!

Since he could not win with brute force head-on, Aiden changed his mentality and intended to escape by shrinking his body.

God knows what the burly man wanted to do capturing him here.

Even if the burly man had no evil intentions, Aiden wouldn't be able to endure his incessant ramblings.

The moment Aiden's body shrank, the chains binding him shrank unexpectedly as well, locking his body firmly without any chance of escape!

"Hahahaha!"

The burly man sat on the ground with a mocking expression and sneered, "Although that lousy thing can't hold me in, you are nothing to it! You should save your energy."

Aiden tried again and when he discovered that he truly couldn't break free, he gave up and frowned at the burly man.

Now that they were so close, Aiden realized that the burly man did not have much flesh and was almost all skin and bones by now.

However, he had a huge frame and his bones were extremely strong, making him seem tall and mighty – every single action of his seemed to be filled with an explosive burst!

The burly man gave off an unfathomable aura, as though he was extremely dangerous and had come from the depths of the ancient desolates.

Unknowingly, Aiden would feel occasional shudders!

He did not know what the background of this red-headed ghost was.

The only thing he knew was that this red-headed ghost was extremely talkative – he must have endured for a long time such that he wasn't even exhausted right now after rambling endlessly!

"Kid, you don't know how rough I'm having it."

"This valley is isolated from the rest of the world and apart from me, there's only that old monk. Yet, in the end, that a*shole chose to train a silent meditation!"

"No matter what I said to him, there was no response from him at all! Look at how much I've endured after so many years!"

At that point, the burly man was agitated and ground his teeth, thumping his massive fists on the ground.

The entire cemetery shook and trembled!

Aiden could not help but ask, "Why do you say that there's only the two of you? There's also a little monk."

Aiden regretted it as soon as he finished his words.

Indeed, when the burly man saw a reaction from Aiden, he was even more excited and his eyes blazed as he ran over and sat beside Aiden.

"Speaking of that little monk, that makes me even more mad!"

"That little monk fell from above six years ago. Initially, he was obedient and honest, coming here daily to feed me with food and chat with me."

"But in less than half a year, he stopped coming! Darn it!"

The burly man grumbled in displeasure.

Aiden lamented internally, "Senior Brother little Morwyn is truly someone with resolve to be able to endure this for half a year!"

"Little monk, you can't learn from those two other monks!"

"You'll definitely benefit chatting with me!"

Aiden merely felt his head spin at the moment and could not be bothered about getting any benefits.

If not for the restriction of the chains, he would have fled long ago and never step foot into the backyard ever again!
