"I know what you're thinking right now, but don't ask me. That's because I don't know whether this little guy is a dragon or a flood dragon." Red Scale King sighed lightly, "I only know that this guy's body is extremely strange. I can sense that his body indeed contains the blood of Dragon Race, but he is extremely weak, as though he is in a state of near death, sleeping the entire time and unable to wake up."

Xiao Yu originally thought that this Small Beast was a descendant of the Red Scale King, because the scales on its body were also bright red like blood.

However, it was only a beast king, yet it actually treated this young beast with such care, and even tried to find some way to get the Underworld Spring Water just to wake the Small Beast up. This showed that this Small Beast was definitely not an ordinary beast, otherwise, Red Scale King would definitely not care so much.

"Can I have a closer look at it?" Xiao Yu was also a little curious about this Small Beast. Even though he had a lot of knowledge, there were never any lack of variables in the world, so no one could say that they knew everything.

He was also a little interested in the state of the Small Beast.

Red Scale King raised his hand, and the little dragon floating on the water floated to Xiao Yu's side. It was obvious that the Red Scale King already saw Xiao Yu as hope.

Furthermore, with his strength, it would be impossible for Xiao Yu to play any tricks in front of him.

Xiao Yu walked forward, stretched out a hand, and placed it on the Small Beast's body as he quietly sensed its presence.

The art of alchemy was intertwined with the way of medicine, and when the way of medicine reached a certain level, all things in the world were considered life to doctors, and there were no racial differences. That was why Xiao Yu wanted to observe the Small Beast up close, in order to examine the abnormality of it.

Every life had its own rhythm. It was like a person's pulse. When one felt this unusual movement, they would be able to roughly pinpoint the crux of the problem.

Xiao Yu could feel that the power of its bloodline was extremely strong, to the point of even being shocking, but the vitality of the Small Beast was extremely weak, as if it could die at any time.

There were many possibilities to this situation, and Xiao Yu was not sure which one it was, but one thing was certain, it would be extremely difficult to wake the Small Beast up.

"How is it?" Red Scale King looked at Xiao Yu, extremely calm, as though he did not hold much hope.

"There is one way, Red Scale King, and that is to see if you can accept it." Xiao Yu muttered to himself for a long time. Although the state of the Small Beast was strange, he still had a way to wake it up.

"Speak!" Red Scale King's eyes lit up. For this Small Beast, he had spent so much energy and effort, now that he heard there was a way, he immediately wanted to hear it.

"I have a way to wake it up, but it will take some time. It might take a few years or even longer!" Xiao Yu said.

"That's fine. As a beast king, being able to live for a few thousand years, a few dozen years is nothing more than a flick of a finger to me." Red Scale King said without hesitation.

"Let me finish." Xiao Yu interrupted the Red Scale King and said, "Other than that, I still need to take it away!"

"What?" Red Scale King frowned, walking back and forth on the spot as if he was hesitating.

After a long time, he said, "There is almost no life in the beast's body. Although the spring water can't awaken it, it can at least keep it alive. If you leave the water, how will you keep it alive?"

"Regarding this, as long as you agree to it, you will naturally know. If you don't, it will be useless even if I say it out loud." Xiao Yu shook his head, not revealing anything.

The Red Scale King became silent again. Very clearly, he valued this Small Beast very heavily, and no mistakes were allowed. He could not be at ease to allow Xiao Yu to take the Small Beast away like this.

However, he himself was very clear that if he did not agree to Xiao Yu's conditions, he would at most be able to maintain this Small Beast from dying and would never be able to revive it.

After all, as a King of Beasts, Red Scale King was not an indecisive person. He was very busy, so he made a decision: "Alright, I can let you take it away, but you have to let me know what the method you speak of is!"

Xiao Yu had expected that the Red Scale King would say this. If he was not confident, even the Beast King would not let him take the Small Beast away.

This way, as long as I don't die, its life will not end. As my cultivation continues to grow stronger, it will be able to get half of my life. It will awaken sooner or later! Since the words were already said, Xiao Yu would no longer hide it.

"What?" "You know how to make a life contract?" Red Scale King was truly shocked this time.

To conclude a life contract simply meant that two completely independent lives would become one life, unable to distinguish between the two. If one side died, the other side would also die. It was as if they had completely become one life.

This method was extremely ancient and the Red Scale King only knew a little about it through the passing down of bloodlines. There was simply no one in this world who knew how to form a contract with such a method.

He continuously sized up Xiao Yu, his heart full of suspicions.

What exactly was this youth's severity? Not only did he understand the ancient Beast Language and recognize the hidden spring water, he even understood this very ancient and powerful technique.

"Although your cultivation is not high, the Spirit River in your body is different from ordinary people. Furthermore, with your knowledge, you should not be an ordinary person. Forget it, letting it make a life contract with you might be beneficial to it too. " After a long while, the Red Scale King sighed.

It was obvious that he was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"In that case, I'll start now." Receiving Red Scale King's consent, Xiao Yu immediately walked forward.

He bit one of his fingers and dripped a drop of his blood onto the Small Beast's body. At the same time, he chanted a complicated incantation.

At the same time, a series of complex and ancient looking symbols appeared from the Small Beast's body, and started to revolve unceasingly.

Finally, half of the symbols entered the Small Beast's body, while the other half entered Xiao Yu's forehead.

After doing all this, the Small Beast suddenly turned into a beam of red light and flew towards Xiao Yu's left arm, then wrapped around his hand.

When everything returned to normal, Xiao Yu's left arm had an additional design that resembled a dragon and Flood Dragon. It looked as if it had been dyed with blood, and from the surface, it looked imposing and majestic.

After concluding a life contract, Xiao Yu and the Small Beast would be linked by a life, regardless of cultivation or life force, they would both be shared.

Red Scale King silently watched from the side with a complicated expression.

"Say it, what else do you need?" After a long period of silence, the Red Scale King slowly calmed down and spoke again.

The Red Scale King was indeed worthy of being a King of Beasts. Xiao Yu had made a life contract with this Small Beast and had other thoughts.

His life was currently connected to this Small Beast, and if he died, this Small Beast would also die. Furthermore, his current strength was too weak, so in order to ensure that this Small Beast did not die, Red Scale King would definitely hope for him to become stronger, and even give him some precious treasures to protect his life.

"This spring water is of some use to it. Can you let me absorb it as well?" Being seen through by the Red Scale King, Xiao Yu did not feel embarrassed, and directly stated his conditions.

"Sigh, now I believe that it will definitely be safe to follow you. Every condition that you have put forward, I cannot reject. If even the beast kings can't do anything to you, how can ordinary people deal with you?" Red Scale King sighed lightly, which also meant he had agreed to Xiao Yu's conditions.

Xiao Yu was overjoyed. Although this spring water did not have the effects of the legendary water, it contained a strong life force. Otherwise, it would not be able to keep the Small Beast alive.

This kind of thing was very beneficial to both it and the Small Beast. It might even be able to help him form another Spirit River!

Without hesitating anymore, Xiao Yu jumped straight into the water and absorbed the life force from the water into his body.
