The black-robed man's heart began to throb when he heard the disappointment in her voice .
He gently pursed his lips while an apologetic light flashed in his eyes .
Yun'er, I'm sorry but I can't acknowledge you yet, I'll come back for you once I've solved those issues! Your powers are far too weak at the moment . How can I bear to drag you down and cause you to risk your life for me?
Just then, the voice which had been silent for a very long time slowly ran aloud again .
"Humans, I've been watching your every move since you've entered these ruins . You aren't like the other humans because you aren't controlled by greed, fear, or death . You have successfully passed my test which is why I'm willing to give this inheritance to you . "
Feng Yuqing trembled as his eyes filled with excitement . "Are you saying that we were being tested?"
"That's right . " The voice sighed gently . "However, I'm not human, I'm a spiritual beast! Therefore, my inheritance can't be given to a human . Only a spiritual beast can accept it . "
"What?"
Feng Yuqing was in shock and his entire being froze in place .
What did he just say? Did he just say that this inheritance can't be accepted by a human? Only a spiritual beast can accept it?
Doesn't that also mean that we've wasted our effort?
"The inheritance is at the back, anyone who wishes to accept it can go there . However, if a human accepts this inheritance, he or she will explode and die . Only a spiritual beast will be able to successfully accept this inheritance . Furthermore, this inheritance is something which can be accepted by more than one spiritual beast . I had said that previously because I wanted to see the humans kill each other . "
Does that mean that any amount of spiritual beasts can accept this inheritance?
Gu Ruoyun rubbed her nose before a smile appeared on the corner of her eyes .
"Greed, selfishness, cowardice, weakness, these are man's special traits . I had built this tomb to instigate these traits in humans! However, I never thought that you would be able to avoid being greedy in the face of so many treasures . When faced with that wobbling single-plank bridge, you also had not pushed your friends down out of fear . Simply because of these actions, I won't hurt you . You may leave this place after this . "
Whatever the Master of the Tomb had said later on never reached Feng Yuqing's ears . All he had heard was the first part of the speech .
A human cannot accept this inheritance!
At that moment, Feng Yuqing's heart filled with disappointment . It's likely that not many people could accept such a great disappointment .
"I want this inheritance . " Gu Ruoyun rubbed her nose . "As a means of repaying you for bringing me here, I can help restore your powers . "
"What did you say?"
Feng Yuqing, who had been filled with disappointment, felt his spirits stir when he heard Gu Ruoyun's words . He quickly lifted his head to look at her and his eyes filled with excitement .
"How about this, you should leave the ruins while I go and have a look at that inheritance . I'll meet you at Wind Valley after a while . " Gu Ruoyun shurgged her shoulders and said, "Also, I'll only be helping you to restore your powers . I won't help you defeat Feng Xiaoxiao . "
After all, she did not have a complete falling-out with Feng Xiaoxiao and Feng Xiaoxiao was now in charge of Wind Valley . She would not risk her life for Feng Yuqing alone .
Even with Zixie in hand, she would not do it .
After all, exposing Zixie in the First City for the sake of someone that she had just met was not worth the risk at all!
