135 A FATHER AND A MOTHER FOR A KID

Wu Jiang was the second gift he had received since he transmigrated to this world. The first gift was a horse that he named Pengyou, but he couldn’t even spend much time with the brown stallion because he had to go to the Forbidden Forest to participate in the Beast Hunting Event.

Actually, it couldn’t be said that Pengyou was a gift for him. Ma Qiao only said that the horse had no owner, and the old servant also told him that he could see the horse as his own, and it was also alright if he wanted to name the stallion.

That was why Bai Chen treated Pengyou as the first gift he received after he transmigrated into this world, and he also treasured the brown horse. Unfortunately, he couldn’t even take Pengyou to accompany him to the Forbidden Forest because the forest was too dangerous for horses.

The Forbidden Forest was indeed dangerous, and he was even terrified the first time he set foot into the forest. He only had an old sword at the time, and it was foolish for him to think that he could rely on the sword. The old sword was easily broken in half by another sword, and it was very embarrassing for him.

Fortunately, instead of being insulted despite being a loser, he received a powerful sword that managed to break his old one. The sword was called Wu Jiang, and it was another precious gift to him.

Therefore, when he was still in a dazed state after waking up from his sleep, and when his eyes immediately saw Wu Jiang fighting alongside Wu Jinhai, he couldn’t help but feel betrayed by both the human and the sword.

Wu Jinhai told him that Wu Jiang would only listen to him because he had called out the name of the sword, but he knew that those words were just a complete lie when he witnessed how the sword fought side by side with the man wearing the red robe.

That was why he acted like a grumpy kid who lost his favorite toy right after he woke up. A child who had just woken up tended to be short-tempered, and that was indeed the case when Bai Chen kept glaring at the taller man.

Hearing Bai Chen’s protest, Wu Jinhai sighed before glancing at the flying sword. He didn’t say anything and just moved a finger towards the sword, and the sword immediately flew toward the two of them.

.....

It was past midnight, and the forest was very dark, but it didn’t matter to Bai Chen since he had a pair of blue eyes that could see through the darkness. Thus, he could immediately see how the sword was so obedient under Wu Jinhai’s command.

“I did lie to you about the sword, but it’s not like I could cut my ties with this sword even after I gave this sword to you,” Wu Jinhai spoke as he bent down to pick up the scabbard from the ground and pointed it towards the sword.

Just like an obedient child, Wu Jiang immediately got into the sheath before falling into Wu Jinhai’s hand. The owner of the hand then handed the sword to the other person.

However, instead of directly taking the silver sword from Wu Jinhai, Bai Chen simply frowned at the sword. “You still have a connection with this sword even after he recognized me as its master?” He asked while keeping his blue eyes on the sword in Wu Jinhai’s hand.

“Yes,” replied Wu Jinhai. “It’s a long story, but this sword has a deep connection with me, and that’s why it won’t easily forget me even after it finds a new master.”

The phrase “long story” was mentioned by Wu Jinhai, and Bai Chen knew that it was only the man’s excuse because the man didn’t want to tell details about the so-called long story.

Bai Chen knew that he and Wu Jinhai could be considered strangers, and that was why he knew that he shouldn’t force the man to tell him anything if it wasn’t the man himself who wanted to reveal something to him.

So, Bai Chen simply asked another question, “What kind of sword is it? It can fly and fight on its own, and there is even a white light shrouding it. And about the connection you have with this sword, why didn’t you tell me when you just gave this sword to me?”

Bai Chen had witnessed how Wu Jiang obediently followed Wu Jinhai’s orders. Even if Wu Jinhai didn’t hold the sword, the sword could miraculously float and fight by itself, and the sight was quite strange in Bai Chen’s eyes. It seemed that Bai Chen was watching a magic show, and that was why he had curiosity in his head after he woke up from his sleep.

It was true that he had fallen into a deep sleep for a while, but he was not late for the show that Wu Jinhai and Wu Jiang were playing. He could see Wu Jinhai fighting with one person, while Wu Jiang fighting with the other two.

The sight was quite strange for someone not familiar with the cultivation world, and Bai Chen didn’t even dare to take the sword from Wu Jinhai.

Wu Jinhai could understand that Bai Chen was frightened now, and he carefully explained, “I received this sword many years ago, and I cultivated together with this sword for many years. This sword has its own spiritual energy, and besides that, it also has my spiritual energy in it. That’s why I said that I can’t just cut my ties with it even after giving it to you.”

Wu Jinhai was very careful and thoughtful when he explained the details to Bai Chen, but Bai Chen still looked confused even after hearing his explanation. “This sword has spiritual energy?” He asked again. “Is that the reason why it can move on its own? I can see it hears your orders very well, and it even acted like a child earlier.”

Bai Chen also saw when Wu Jiang looked like it was tilting its head earlier, and he couldn’t help but think that the sword was acting like a child.

Hearing that, Wu Jinhai smiled from behind his mask. “You’re right. Wu Jiang is indeed a child, and that’s my son,” he replied casually.

Bai Chen had his blue eyes focused on the sword the entire time, but he finally looked up and frowned at the masked man. “You said that Wu Jiang is your son, and you also said that it has your spiritual energy in it, so why did you give it to me? I can tell that this sword is precious to you, so I don’t understand why you gave it to me.”

Not only did the sword continue to act like a child, but Wu Jiang also acted innocently as if it was five years old or so.

Seeing the pure expression on Bai Chen’s face, Wu Jinhai smiled behind the mask once again. “Do you think it would be better for a child to have complete parents?” He asked.

Bai Chen blinked after hearing Wu Jinhai’s question. “Huh?” He could only ask in confusion.

Behind the golden mask, Wu Jinhai continued to smile. “I’m Wu Jiang’s father, and you can be its mother. What do you say about it?”

LOADING...

Bai Chen’s head tried to process Wu Jinhai’s words, but then he widened his blue eyes when he finally realized the meaning behind those words.

Raising a fist before punching Wu Jinhai in the chest, he furiously replied, “Just find some beasts to be a mother for your child! Why should I be a mother? Have you lost your mind?”

Bai Chen’s face turned red as he continued to scold the taller man. He was a straight man, and he would marry a beautiful girl before having children with her. And when the two of them finally had a child, the child would definitely call him ‘father’ instead of ‘mother.’ What kind of man would feel good about being called ‘mom’?

Bai Chen found it very strange, and when he heard how the taller man dared to say that he was going to become a mother, the feelings in his heart were mixed.

He was embarrassed and angry, and he couldn’t even tell which feeling was stronger than the other.

Bai Chen still punched Wu Jinhai in the chest even though he didn’t use all his strength, but then the movement of his hand stopped when the thing that was the reason behind their quarrel suddenly stirred before moving toward Bai Chen’s chest and starting to act spoiled in his chest.

Yes, it was Wu Jiang who was acting like a spoiled child seeking warmth in his mother’s arms, and Bai Chen was speechless when he saw how the sword continued to curl up against his chest.

Wu Jinhai could see Bai Chen’s helpless expression, and it tempted him to tease the man further, “I think you need to give our child some milk, my dear.”
