Chapter 599

Use Value

Ling Xiao started laughing.

The Weasel Beast didn’t understand why he was laughing, and started laughing as well, but soon enough, he wasn’t able to laugh anymore.

“A Weasel Beast like you? Are you for real?” Ling Xiao spoke mildly, yet there was clear contempt in his tone. No matter him or You XiaoMo, any normal demon beast that followed them would only become a burden.

The Weasel Beast might be a high level demon beast, and even a mutated variant, but his combative ability was relatively low amongst high level demon beasts. He wouldn’t be much of an asset in a battle to them. The only reason he could rule this island was because he was lucky enough that there were no powerful high level demon beasts.

The Weasel Beast clearly felt that the other was insulting him, his eyes red with anger. So what if he was a Ground Squirrel Beast? He was proud of being one!

“What do you mean, am I for real? You should be honored to have the chance of becoming this king’s comrade. If it wasn’t for Master, then this king would never lower himself to sharing a Master with someone like you.”

“That’s your attitude when wanting to become someone’s contracted demon beast?” Ling Xiao’s lips curled, seemingly in a good mood. He was actually willing to sit here arguing with the Weasel Beast, but the Weasel Beast wasn’t so happy.

“It’s not like this king wants to form a contract with you, so what does this king’s attitude have to do with you?” The Weasel Beast replied arrogantly.

“Of course it has to do with me.” Ling Xiao narrowed his eyes.

The Weasel Beast’s expression remained unchanged, clearly disbelieving, and asked, “Then go on, what does it have to do with you?”

Ling Xiao responded in an amused tone, “Any demon beast that wants to form a contract with him has to get my approval. As for why, that’s simple: because he’s mine.”

“Mine?” The Weasel Beast was stunned. Was it what he thought it meant? “You…”

Ling Xiao crossed his arms. “If you want to become his demon beast, sure, but first, tell me what use value you have.”

The Weasel Beast didn’t know how to react at all. The other had said the words “use value” so straightforwardly that it had stunned him. He was speechless for a good while.

“My patience is limited,” Ling Xiao added lightly.

The Weasel Beast finally snapped out of his stupor. For some things, it was better to believe they were true no matter if they were or were not. He personally thought it was rather absurd because the island was rather isolated, so he had interacted with very limited numbers of people and demon beasts. He hadn’t ever heard of the idea of a man with another man.

However, he couldn’t not believe it, otherwise, if it was true, then wouldn’t he had offended his future master’s other half?

As a clever and amazing Weasel beast, he had to show his courage and gain his master’s other half’s acknowledgement.

“I naturally have great use value, and, and not just one…” The Weasel Beast stuttered, “My greatest value is my intelligence network.”

“Oh? And how does that work?”

The Weasel Beast saw his neutral expression, and, unable to figure out what he was thinking, could only continue, “I have a talent that normal Weasel Demons don’t have. Only an aberrant like me has this talent, that is, to be able to control all rodent demon beasts.”
