Chapter 29

That little white wolf actually followed him again, and in the blink of an eye, it was already at Jiang Han's feet, rubbing its head against his leg.

In an instant, Jiang Han thought of the scene where he was relentlessly pursued by a pack of wolves, and his heart shuddered. He raised his eyes to look in the direction from which the white wolf had come, and seeing no pack of wolves chasing after it, he felt slightly relieved.

He lowered his head to look at the white wolf, and with a dark face, he picked it up. The white wolf did not resist at all, staring at Jiang Han with its innocent, watery wolf eyes.

After staring at the white wolf for a while, the corners of Jiang Han's mouth twitched, and he suddenly waved his hand, throwing the white wolf far away.

"Speechless, why are you following me?"

Jiang Han turned away in frustration, but before he could take a step, a white figure flashed beside him. The next moment, he saw the white wolf squatting in front of him, lifting its little head to look at him, with a pitiful expression.

"..." Jiang Han's mouth twitched, and he squatted down to stare at the white wolf. After a while, he dryly said, "You seem to have some spirit, although I don't know why you're following me... But I'm not a man who can be defeated by cuteness, go back to your wolf parents, be a good boy!"

After saying that, Jiang Han stood up straight and walked around the white wolf.

Although it felt silly to talk to a first-stage beast, for some reason, Jiang Han always felt that the white wolf could understand him.

He was really puzzled, why was this white wolf following him for no reason?

If it were like in those novels, where the white wolf was a divine beast or something, and was conquered by his leaking aura of dominance, thus becoming loyal and refusing to leave, it would be understandable. But the problem was... this little thing was a young wind wolf, and at most, it could grow to a fifth-stage king beast, and that was only if it had a lot of luck!

"Why do others, when they show their aura of dominance, attract dragons and phoenixes, while I just get a first-stage white wolf?" Jiang Han was a bit depressed, then he consoled himself, "Probably because I don't have that aura of dominance!"

To be honest, Jiang Han was quite uninterested in a beast with little growth potential that could only be used as a pet.

Can cuteness and rolling on the ground get you food?

Well, if it were a girl, it might work, but it wouldn't work on Jiang Han.

"Whoosh!"

He had only taken a few steps when a sound of wind rushed past his ear. Then his shoulder felt a bit heavier, and the white wolf had already climbed up, extending its tongue to lick Jiang Han's ear in a friendly manner.

Jiang Han was helpless, and he turned his head to look at the white wolf. The white wolf stared at him with its big, watery eyes, its mouth open in what seemed like a smile, and it leaned in to give Jiang Han a wolf kiss.

Suddenly, Jiang Han was startled and quickly turned his head to avoid the white wolf's "active kiss," then he pulled the white wolf down.

TNND, almost lost his first kiss in this world!

After a moment of internal ranting, Jiang Han looked down at the white wolf, and a thought suddenly struck him. This white wolf seemed to have a high level of spirit, and it shouldn't just be a first-stage beast. But looking at its speed, it should be a young wind wolf... No, that's not right!

Jiang Han suddenly paused, a flash of insight crossing his mind, and his gaze toward the white wolf changed!

The previous wolf king he had checked with the system was a mid-second-stage beast, but it still couldn't catch up to him. Yet this white wolf could keep up with him... Not only that, if he guessed correctly, this white wolf's speed was even faster than his full-speed Ghost Step!

Thinking about this, a look of shock appeared in Jiang Han's eyes. It was hard to believe that a young white wolf could be so fast. If it grew up, wouldn't it be incredible?

Subconsciously, Jiang Han used the system to check the white wolf's information, but the result left him stunned.

[Ice Wind Wolf] (Mutated Beast)

Description: A mutated beast from the Tianwu Continent, carrying mysterious beast blood, with ice and wind attributes.

Level: Black Iron (Low First-Stage) (Can Advance)

"Mysterious bloodline..." Jiang Han didn't pay attention to the level, but was drawn to these words. "System, even you can't see it?"

"Can." The system's voice was mechanical and cold. "But the strength of the bloodline's inheritor is too powerful, and forcibly checking it would alert the mysterious powerful being."

Jiang Han was suddenly startled, and his gaze toward the white wolf could no longer be described as just shocked.

Then he thought of a more important issue, feeling a chill. All along, he had seen the system as a god, almost omnipotent. But now the system was saying that the bloodline was so powerful that even it dared not forcibly check it!

Jiang Han originally thought that no one else could see the system, so he didn't have many concerns, but the system's words now made him realize!

After all, the system was just like a spirit in a legendary artifact, or more simply, an intelligent program.

Its incredible ability lay in being able to exchange for various items, not in its own strength!

If the system were exposed, those mysterious powerful beings who even the system feared would certainly turn Jiang Han into dust, or confine him, treating him like a meat cow.

Thinking of such consequences, Jiang Han shuddered. He was now grateful that the system had the autonomy not to check it directly.

Another thing that made him nervous was the potential of this white wolf. According to the system, this white wolf's father or mother must be a very powerful beast, perhaps even a true divine beast?

But how could the offspring of a divine beast be so weak?

Could it be... a male ice divine beast had sown its seeds everywhere and mated with a wind wolf, resulting in this white wolf? Of course, that wind wolf must have had some luck and wouldn't be weak.

This strange idea popped into Jiang Han's mind, and the more he thought about it, the more it seemed possible. Finally, he nodded in confirmation.

"Looks like this little guy has explosive potential!"

Jiang Han wiped his forehead, realizing he was already drenched in cold sweat. His gaze toward the white wolf was both hot and uncomfortable. This was the offspring of a divine beast, and even if it didn't grow up to be a divine beast, it would definitely be much stronger than ordinary beasts!

The only thing he didn't understand was why this white wolf was following him.

Jiang Han thought for a moment, but had no clue, so he decided to put it aside and not think about it. After all, it was just a spirit beast, and it wouldn't plot against him!

"Will its father or mother find out and destroy me in anger if I keep it as a pet?"

"Hmm, probably not... I'll just be nicer to it..."

Jiang Han felt a bit guilty but still decided to keep the white wolf.

How could he let it go? Besides, it was the white wolf that insisted on following him, not the other way around!

After making up his mind, Jiang Han smiled what he thought was an extremely kind smile and said to the white wolf, "Little guy, do you want to follow me?"

The white wolf tilted its head to look at Jiang Han and happily nodded its little head.

"Then... do you want to be my pet? If you don't, I won't let you follow me!" Jiang Han smiled sweetly, suddenly feeling like a creepy uncle trying to lure a little girl.

The white wolf blinked its eyes, stared at Jiang Han for a while, and then shook its head.

"Why?" Jiang Han was stunned, feeling a bit of a failure. Was his expression not convincing enough? As he thought, Jiang Han showed an even kinder smile, almost harmless.

"I can give you a lot of good food."

The white wolf tilted its head, seemingly thinking, which made Jiang Han happy. It looked like there was a chance!

Unexpectedly, after a moment, the white wolf shook its head again, looking very determined.

Jiang Han's face darkened. Was his charm so poor? He couldn't even persuade a little guy, even though it was the offspring of a divine beast, but currently just a low first-stage beast!

Jiang Han was not giving up. He used his silver tongue, threatening and tempting, until he was dry-mouthed, but the white wolf just kept shaking its head!

"Damn it, I'm not going to bother anymore, go wherever you want!"

In the end, Jiang Han was almost at his wits' end, and with a dark face, he shouted, putting the white wolf on the ground and walking away.

As expected, the white wolf followed him again, jumping onto Jiang Han's shoulder and gently rubbing his face, as if trying to please him.

Jiang Han kept a stern face, staring at the white wolf, while the white wolf's eyes were full of hope, looking pitiful.

After a long silence, Jiang Han's expression softened, and he sighed lightly.

"Fine, not being a pet is fine, but if you follow me, there are rules! Whatever I tell you to do, you must do it..."

"Otherwise, forget it!"

PS: Xiao Han also wants to participate in the Dream Cup competition, so Xiao Han will work hard to write more chapters. Also, I'm asking for some favorites... recommendations...
