1121 These Words Stabbed His Heart

When Di Wu looked up and saw Sheng Xiao looking at him hesitantly, he urged impatiently, “What do you want to

say? There’s no one else here, so there’s no need to hide it.”

Sheng Xiao replied, “I just want to ask you something.”

Di Wu nodded. “Go ahead.”

Sheng Xiao suggested, “Let’s say that one day in the future, Naris completely moves past her relationship with you

and falls in love. She might even bring that man home to show you and get your blessing. At that time, can you

really remain calm?”

Seeing that Di Wu didn’t say anything, Sheng Xiao pointed out, “If she wants to spend the rest of her life with him,

as her nominal adoptive father, can you really hold her hand and hand her over to another man?”

These words stabbed his heart.

Sheng Xiao defeated Di Wu with just one sentence.

Di Wu’s face turned pale and he shouted in a low voice, “Shut up!” He wouldn’t allow Sheng Xiao to say that, nor did

he dare to imagine that scene.

Just thinking about it made him feel suffocated and jealous.

Anna was his!

How could she be with another man?!

Seeing that Di Wu was angry and his eyes were red, Sheng Xiao pointed out even more mercilessly, “There’s still a

long way to go. Naris will eventually meet another person who loves her as much as you do. You know better than

anyone how dazzling she is, don’t you?”

Di Wu was speechless. “…I…”

He lowered his head dejectedly and lamented indignantly. “…I can’t do it!”

Sheng Xiao wasn’t surprised to hear this answer.

“See, you’re not magnanimous enough to watch her get married and have children with someone else.” Sheng

Xiao stood up and told Di Wu earnestly, “Love is never just about one person. You have no right to make

presumptuous decisions regarding your relationship with her. You should tell her the truth and let Naris make the

decision herself.”

Hearing this, Di Wu raised his head and his hesitant gaze magnified the cowardice in his heart. “But I’m even more

afraid of hearing her rejection.” Who wouldn’t despise his crippled and old body?

He loved Anna deeply, so he didn’t have the courage to tell Anna the truth, and he was even more afraid of seeing

Anna look at him with disdain and disgust.

From the moment Anna woke up and called him ‘old man’, Di Wu sealed himself off and didn’t dare to open himself

up again.

Shaking his head, Sheng Xiao said, “She loves you so much that she is willing to transcend species boundaries, so

how could she mind your deformed body and old face? Do you understand that your presumptuous concealment is

actually hurtful to her?”

“From the moment you decided to hide the truth from Anna, you were insulting her.”

Sheng Xiao’s last sentence reminded Di Wu.

Di Wu stared at Sheng Xiao for a long time before saying with a sigh, “Thank you, Sheng Xiao.” As the saying went,

the outsiders perceived the truth clearly. Sheng Xiao could see through the essence of this matter at a glance, but

Di Wu, as someone deeply involved in it, couldn’t.

“It’s nothing.” Sheng Xiao smiled at Di Wu. “You guys are my friends.”

Then, Sheng Xiao opened the back door and walked out.

When he raised his head, he saw Yu Huang standing on the path between the backyard and the tavern while looking

at him with a sad expression.

Sheng Xiao pursed his thin lips and stared at her silently.

After a moment, he said, “You heard everything.”

“Yeah.”

Yu Huang walked to Sheng Xiao and hugged his narrow waist tightly as she said with a sigh, “I can’t believe that Di

Wu is the T-Rex. Brother Xiao, when did you find out?”

Sheng Xiao said, “On the night Mentor purified Naris’ spirit.”

He discovered it at that time? She asked again, “How did you discover it?”

Sheng Xiao sighed. “Fathers wouldn’t look at their daughters like that. People can’t hide the affection in their eyes

when they love someone.” That night, many people focused their attention on Naris, but no one noticed Di Wu’s

abnormality.

“I see.” Yu Huang let go of Sheng Xiao and said, “Everyone is ready and are waiting to set off together when you go

back.”

Sheng Xiao said, “Aren’t we going to wait for Naris?”

Naris had gone to participate in the Purifying Spirit Master assessment and had yet to return.

Shaking her head, Yu Huang said, “Let’s not wait anymore. I believe she will pass. Besides, it’s not like we’re parting

forever. We’ll still come back. Naris can also look for us. Let’s go. We can’t let the organizer wait for us.”

“Okay.”

The venue of this Central Continent Beast Tamer Selection Competition was set at the Ice Blazing City in the west of

the Central Continent.

Ice Blazing City had the only desert in the Central Continent. It was the fixed place for every Beast Tamer Selection

Competition in the Central Continent.

All the participating Beast Tamers in the Ice River City had to gather at the Kyle Hotel in the Nine Gods District. After

midnight, they had to take a maglev train that went straight to the Ice Ice Blazing City to participate in the

competition.

When Yu Huang and the others arrived at Beast Tamer Hotel No. 1, the square outside the hotel and the hall inside

the hotel were already filled with participating Beast Tamers from various districts.

At a glance, there were ten to twenty thousand people.

Seeing that there were tens of thousands of participants in Ice River City alone, Yin Rong exclaimed, “Why are there

so many participants?!” She originally thought that there would be at most one to two thousand participants in a

city.

Hearing this, Donor told everyone, “Ice River City is not a city, but the general name of all the nearby cities.”

Donor took out the complete topographic map of the Central Continent from his interspatial ring and pointed at the

winding river in the middle of the plate as he said, “This river is Ice River. The so-called Ice River City refers to the

total number of 45 cities built along this river. The area of the Ice River City is comparable to that of three Divine

Moon Empires. The Ice River City we are in is the city with the strongest economy, military, technology, and Beast

Tamers among these cities, so it is publicly acknowledged as the boss of the Ice River City District.”

Yin Rong looked at Donor and asked, “In other words, the participants of these 45 cities are all gathered here?”

“That’s right.” Nodding his head, Donor continued, “The participants in the high-level Beast Tamer Selection

Competition are all Beast Tamers below the age of 80. There are nearly 20,000 eligible participants in the Ice River

City alone. The Central Continent is so wide and there are many Beast Tamers, so I estimate that the total number

of participants in this Central Continent Selection Competition won’t be less than 100,000.”

“I’ve investigated the situation of the previous three competitions and learned that the total number of participants

in the previous few selection competitions of the Central Continent has never been less than 100,000. I think there

will be more this year.”

Hearing this, everyone had mixed expressions.

Just Central Continent alone could gather 100,000 Supreme Master Beast Tamers under the age of 80. However,

even in the entire Holy Spirit Continent, it was probably very difficult to find so many qualified Supreme Master

Beast Tamers.
