Chapter 1691: Xiao Jin’s Dilemma

" Tun … Jin? "

Xiao Jin was stunned.

What kind of name is that?

Why does it feel so strange?

Xiao Fan was also stunned.

This Old Lion's taste… seemed… not bad!

Tun Jin… what an auspicious name!

" What? " The Old Lion raised his eyebrows. " You don't like it? "

" This… it's, it's alright. " Xiao Jin hesitated for a moment, then glanced back at Xiao Fan from the corner of his eye.

He wanted to see what his big brother had to say.

After all, Xiao Jin's previous name was given by Xiao Fan.

But he noticed… Xiao Fan was nodding to himself over there, seemingly thinking the name was not bad either.

" I like it. Then I will be called Tun Jin from now on. " Xiao Jin thought for a moment and said.

" Hehehe… That's right! " The Old Lion chuckled happily.

Seventy thousand years.

He had finally seen his son!

After the excitement, he felt ashamed.

" My son… it's a pity, your father has nothing good to give you! " The Old Lion sighed.

He had been trapped for many years, and he had nothing on him.

" It doesn't matter. " Xiao Jin shook his head.

He didn't really care about Magical Artifacts, Cultivation Techniques, or resources.

Having such a powerful father was actually good enough for him.

It was just a pity… that his father could not leave this place.

Otherwise, he would be invincible in the future!

" Sigh… "

The Old Lion looked melancholy and started chatting with Xiao Jin again.

Xiao Jin asked curiously: " What about my mother? "

The Old Lion had been captured.

What about his mother?

" Your mother… is dead. Back then, the Heaven-Swallowing Lion clan was hunted by many races. Just after she gave birth to you, other races chased us… and then, she sacrificed herself, and I took you and fled. " The Old Lion's expression was very sorrowful when he said this.

" Seventy thousand years… This damned altar Seal has trapped me for seventy thousand years. Otherwise, how could my strength be like this now!! "

The Zhanming Realm is very strong.

But for the Bloodline of a powerful exotic beast like the Heaven-Swallowing Lion, the Zhanming Realm is far from enough.

He was trapped here, not to mention having no resources… the altar would also constantly restrain him, making him unable to Cultivate and unable to improve his strength.

This was also one of the reasons why the Old Lion hated the Human Emperor.

When the Human Emperor left behind his contingency, he was worried that if he achieved a Breakthrough and his strength became too powerful, he would break the altar Seal…

" Father, who killed my mother! "

Hearing that his mother had been killed, Xiao Jin's eyes instantly turned red.

" It is… Forget it, forget it. It's useless to tell you; you are too weak… " The Old Lion shook his head.

Xiao Fan watched the Old Lion and his son reunite from the side, feeling emotional.

It was a pity…

Even so, he still wouldn't easily break the Seal for the Old Lion.

It had been difficult to get the Nine Provinces under his control.

How could he do something so suicidal?

" Xiao Jin, let's go… "

Half a day later… Xiao Fan spoke.

Hearing this, the Old Lion's face instantly darkened.

" New Human Emperor of the Nine Provinces, what do you mean? We father and son have just reunited, and you want to separate us?! " The Old Lion was immediately displeased.

" I have other things that I need to do… " Xiao Fan said calmly.

The Nine Provinces had just been unified, and he had many things to do.

Xiao Jin was very clear about this.

Xiao Jin looked hesitant, glancing at Xiao Fan, then at the Old Lion.

After confirming that it was his father, Xiao Jin had feelings for the Old Lion and could also understand the hardships he had endured over these many years.

He really wanted to ask Xiao Fan to release the Old Lion, but he knew that Xiao Fan would not do that; the risk was too great.

He himself was also very clear… If the Old Lion went berserk and really started a massacre in the Nine Provinces, it would be a huge threat to the Nine Provinces, and he had no confidence at all that he could persuade the Old Lion.

" Big Brother, I… " Xiao Jin stammered.

" If you want to stay, then just stay… After I finish my business, I will come to pick you up. " Xiao Fan saw through Xiao Jin's thoughts at a glance.

Before asking this, he had actually anticipated it.

" This… thank you, Big Brother. " Xiao Jin thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Hearing Xiao Fan's words, the Old Lion's face was not only no longer dark, but he was also chuckling.

There was a Slave Mark on Xiao Jin…

This was the mark of the master-servant contract signed between Xiao Fan and Xiao Jin.

This naturally could not be hidden from the Old Lion.

It could be said… that as long as this Slave Mark was not broken, Xiao Jin's life and death were entirely in Xiao Fan's hands.

" Little Human Emperor, you aren't bad… You are much better than that old bastard from before. " The Old Lion laughed dryly.

Xiao Fan: " … "

" Alright, I'm leaving. " Xiao Fan couldn't be bothered to pay attention to him.

However, before leaving, Xiao Fan tossed a spirit beast bag to Xiao Jin.

" Eat it sparingly… "

After doing this, Xiao Fan fled into the distance…

Xiao Jin checked inside the spirit beast bag, and drool appeared at the corner of his mouth.

" My son, what kind of food is in there? " The Old Lion's eyes lit up when he heard the word 'food'.

He had forgotten how long it had been since he had eaten anything good.
