"Just swear that you won't hurt me when you reach a high level of cultivation," Yu Jinli said smilingly.

He believed the person in front of him for he had faith in his own judgment. However, he must follow his master shifu and sect-brother's warning, otherwise they would be mad at him.

Though he wasn't sure whether he would meet them again, he would follow their instructions.

"I, Jiang Mosheng, swear on the honor of Jiang Family that I'll protect Yu Jinli from harm. If I break my oath, I'll die horribly," said Jiang Mosheng solemnly. Then, he saw light appear with his bed as the center and form a complex pattern then disappear after hovering around him for a while, as if it was never there.

It was the sign that the oath was taken. From then on, the oath started to work.

Yu Jinli was surprised by how thoughtful his golden coattail was, having sworn to protect him from harm. Did that mean his golden coattail would protect him forever?

Hah hah hah... His golden coattail didn't let him down as he expected. He was a great man!

Naturally, Jiang Mosheng had seen the magic formation when he swore the oath.

When he made the oath, he had a strange feeling as if a connection was built between him and something but he couldn't figure out what.

"Ah Sheng, now I'm going to teach you the cultivation method. Listen carefully." Excitedly, Yu Jinli taught the cultivation method to Jiang Mosheng.

Certainly, the method he taught Jiang Mosheng wasn't the one he followed, but a more advanced one his master shifu taught him which was suitable for both humans and spirit beasts. However, since he was lazy as well as not qualified enough, he didn't adopt that approach himself.

However, from his point of view, Jiang Mosheng had a great potential. That method would be easy for him to master. Most importantly, it could help him detoxify effectively.

After Yu Jinli finished his lesson, Jiang Mosheng, who had always been composed no matter what couldn't stay calm anymore. He felt like his worldview collapsed and was rebuilt.

Though he swore that he wasn't surprised to see the magic formation at all and he knew the way of five elements - gold, wood, water, fire and earth, he thought that would only work through particular media. However, now, according to Yu Jinli, he could produce the five elements by cultivation. That was... beyond him.

If other people learned about such a cultivation method, they would yearn for it.

Now, Jiang Mosheng felt the burden on him was even heavier. The way he looked at Yu Jinli turned more complex.

The little one had taught him such a good method without hesitation, happy that it would help him with his toxin. What the little one didn't know was that even the president of the Federation would fawn on him for it, showering him with gifts beyond his imagination.

However, the little one only cared about his injury, only hoped that no damage came to himself, without asking for anything back. How could he not love such an innocent soul?

Even if he hadn't taken the oath, even without the bonds of heavenly law, he, Jiang Mosheng, would never hurt Yu Jinli. He would protect him from harm for his life!
