Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 268 - 162: The Second Generation is Actually Myself?

The still of the night gradually returned to calm.

Su Ping lay on the hospital bed.

Lin Lei and Dong Muyun did not continue to disturb him but instead dispatched people to guard the door.

Looking at the snow-white ceiling, Su Ping’s thoughts slowly became serene.

At that moment, Su Ping finally understood.

Su Ping’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he let out a light breath.

Su Ping sighed.

However, just as Su Ping was resolutely making up his mind, a ghostly blue light suddenly lit up on the ceiling. Like a sudden appearance of will-o’-the-wisps, it made Su Ping slightly stunned, followed by a wave of coldness throughout his body.

Without even thinking, Su Ping picked up an object at hand and threw it out.

"Guards!"

Within the cold ghostly blue flames, a voice with a hint of a smile sounded.

"Kid, you’re quite vigilant, but don’t worry."

The voice was extremely mellow, completely different from Mu Yu’s voice from before. Su Ping was slightly startled. The next moment, this cold ghostly flame slowly transformed into a figure. Blue flames surrounded him, like wandering souls from the legends. Yet, they also illuminated the figure.

He looked like a very young man. Even from Su Ping’s perspective, the man before him seemed to be in his twenties at most. However, those eyes that seemed to also burn with blue flames held an age-deep sagacity that didn’t match his apparent youth.

The man, looking at Su Ping who was stunned on the bed, finally shifted from ethereal to physical, studying Su Ping with satisfaction.

"Not bad, not bad! The little fellow looks pretty good, kinda reminds me of myself when I was young!"

Su Ping cast a doubtful glance at this strangely appearing man.

"Who are you, sir? Charles?"

"Sir? Charles?"

The man was momentarily taken aback, clearly unaccustomed to such address. He then cracked a smile.

"Heh, I’m not that neither-alive-nor-dead guy; just call me Leng Ye. Relax, don’t look like that. If I wanted to do anything to you, kid, you’d have been dead long ago."

The man flicked a blue flame, completely lighting up the room.

Su Ping took a deep breath.

However, it was clear that the man before him seemed to have no intention of answering that question. Instead, he frowned slightly.

"Kid, is Charles involved in this attack you experienced? What exactly happened?"

Su Ping nodded.

"It’s just my guess, but Mu Yu and those people from Eagle Country were likely the ones who attacked me."

"Tell me everything from the beginning!"

The man glanced at Su Ping.

But Su Ping was unfazed, without even a ripple of emotion.
