"Hehe, being cooped up here for millions of years, it's inevitable to develop some quirks!" the skeleton shamelessly laughed, "Child of Darkness, from now on I am willing to follow by your side. Until you inherit your destiny and lead us all into the light!"
"You might be willing, but I'm not!" Xiao Chen quickly said, "Having a skeleton following me around all the time—wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?"
"I can transform into a human form!" the skeleton said, "Though I'm not accustomed to the form of a human, for the sake of a great cause, I can endure it!"
"Even so, no need!" Xiao Chen shook his head, "Rather than following me, you'd better go do something meaningful!"
"Something meaningful?" the skeleton was taken aback.
"Where are your people?" Xiao Chen asked.
"My people..."
The skeleton hesitated, clearly lost.
It had been in the Heavenly Secret Realm for at least several million years, perhaps even longer. It did not know whether its people were still around.
