Staring at Wang Haichuan fleeing in disarray, Chu Chen was montarily stunned in place, looking at the wooden box in his hand, unsure of what to do for a while.
Although he didn’t know what this Beast Taming Armor ant to Wang Haichuan, he could clearly feel its extre importance to him.
Elder Wu saw Chu Chen’s predicant and sighed, "Take it."
Chu Chen, hearing this, softly asked, "Elder Wu, can you tell about this item?"
Elder Wu did not imdiately answer but looked up at the sky, his eyes full of reminiscence.
After a mont, Elder Wu began to speak, "Let tell you a story."
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen hurriedly nodded.
"About thirty years ago, a young man walked out from a small town and got into White Tiger Beast Taming University. He had excellent talent and was diligent in both learning and cultivation. During his studies, he t a girl. He liked the girl very much, and she liked him too. However, the girl had hatred in her heart and didn’t accept his pursuit. The boy didn’t give up; he continued to pursue her until they graduated, but she never agreed and even said so harsh words before disappearing from his world."
At this point, Elder Wu picked up his glass and sadly took a sip.
After gathering his emotions, he continued, "The boy left heartbroken to chase his dreams, becoming a strong man and building his own city. Through countless hardships, he finally achieved his dream, building a city of his own, becoming a stand-alone figure. However, he was not happy because he could never let go of that girl."
Elder Wu’s gaze beca even sadder, and after a long silence, he continued, "Perhaps it was fate that had not ended; one day when the man returned from training, he saw a woman in the city. He imdiately recognized her as the girl who haunted his soul. But she had changed greatly; her hair was snow white, and her face was much older. She was no longer the girl from those years ago. After eting, they talked at length. Hearing the man’s experiences over the years, the woman felt happy for him. She also revealed the secret she hid in her heart — she was already weak from seeking revenge, but her great vengeance was achieved. She initially planned to end her life, but wanted to see the man one last ti to resolve her inner regret before dying."
At this point, Elder Wu’s eyes were moist. He wiped the corners and smiled, "Getting old, it’s easy to get sentintal, making you laugh."
Chu Chen shook his head at his words, urgently asking, "What happened then?"
"After learning the reasons, the man deeply regretted within himself. He hated that he couldn’t see through the girl’s feelings then. Now, he could no longer suppress his feelings and wanted to marry her. Knowing she couldn’t live much longer, the woman naturally disagreed. So, the man poured out all his hidden emotions over the years, and finally, the woman was moved by his true feelings. They successfully held a wedding, and on the wedding day, the man gave his most precious Beast Taming Armor to the woman as a token of his affection. After marriage, they lived happily."
When Elder Wu reached this point, his lips slightly turned up as if he could feel this happiness too.
He poured another glass of wine, drank it, as if only with the aid of alcohol could he continue.
"Unfortunately, happy days are always short-lived. Just six months later, the woman’s health declined rapidly, and her beauty began to fade quickly. The man tried many thods to save her, but to no avail. The woman didn’t want to see her husband running around for her, nor did she want him to see her aged appearance."
At this point, Elder Wu’s voice choked up, and he drank another glass of wine to forcibly suppress his emotions.
Chu Chen, seeing this, did not rush him, as his own eyes also beca moist.
After a mont of silence, Elder Wu continued, "One day, the woman put on beautiful makeup, dressed herself up nicely, and took her husband to a hilltop. She quietly nestled in his arms, watching the fiery red sunset at the horizon, recounting bits and pieces from their school days. These were their shared mories. Her voice gradually weakened, and at this mont, the man realized sothing was wrong. He quickly looked at his wife and found that she had already taken poison. The man wanted to take her back for treatnt, but she firmly held him back. She weakly said goodbye with eyes full of reluctance, and finally returned the love token given by her husband, making him swear to forget her. The man was devastated and wandered aimlessly for months before pulling himself together. But he seed to have changed into another person. He hid the Beast Taming Armor and never ntioned his wife’s na again, as if erasing her from his life."
At this point, Elder Wu poured himself another glass, drank it in one gulp, and proceeded to refill it, drinking three successive glasses in this manner before stopping.
Chu Chen did not stop him as he too felt an urge to drink a few glasses given the situation.
After downing three glasses, Elder Wu spoke again, "Since then, the man devoted all his energy to building the city. He went out early and returned late every day, sotis working for days nonstop until he was exhausted before falling asleep. It seed only then he could sleep. This went on for a long ti, and his realm reached the Peak of Soul Master Level, but he couldn’t break through as he could never let go of his wife, constantly living in regret and pain."
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen wiped the tears from his eyes. He understood that the man Elder Wu spoke of was Wang Haichuan, and the woman was his wife, Han Yue.
Chu Chen quietly placed the wooden box in front of Elder Wu and solemnly said, "This item is too important for the City Lord; I cannot accept it."
Elder Wu shook his head and said, "You still don’t understand. He can’t let go of this relationship and can only suffer himself. Also, Han Yue wouldn’t want him to continue as such. If you take the Beast Taming Armor, it might help him untie his heart’s knot, allowing Han Yue to exist in another form. This may be the best outco."
Chu Chen, hearing this, did not continue to refuse. Holding the wooden box, he felt it unusually heavy. He was very aware that this Beast Taming Armor was not rely a piece of equipnt but a significant emotional token.
Through Elder Wu’s guidance, Chu Chen learned the thod to use the Beast Taming Armor.
To summarize, its usage is quite simple. The Guardian Beast just needs to inject Star Power into the tal sphere, and it will automatically enter the Guardian Beast’s body, transforming its shape according to the beast’s will.
This ans it can be armor or a weapon, but it requires a continuous consumption of Star Power when in use.
If it is shattered, it will return to the Guardian Beast’s body and can be automatically restored with the nurturing of Star Power over a period of ti.
