The Last Primal - Chapter 1054: - An Old Acquaintance

As monkey mentioned, Aiden would not be able to explain things for the rest of his life if he became sworn brothers with them.

However, Aiden did not care!

The reason why he trained was so that he could do as he wished – how could he be restricted by the confines of moral guidelines or the different ideals of the righteous, the good, and the so-called ‘bad’?

If he wanted to establish his own rule, his own technique, he must possess the boldness to break free of all restraints and rules!

The spirit tiger said, “We should add someone else although he’s not here with us right now.”

Little crane asked, “Little Dark Demon, right?”

The spirit tiger nodded hurriedly and wagged its tail, praising, “You sure are smart, little crane.”

Little crane blushed slightly and extended her leg, kicking the spirit tiger. “After forming my Inner Core, my mother gave me a name. I’m now called Kiki.”

Little Crane possessed the bloodline of the fiery birds and looked different from other divine birds with a tinge of jade-green in her feathers – the name was fitting.

Little fox called out obediently, “Sister Kiki.”

“Yes,”

Kiki nodded and hugged little fox.

Although this was the first time they met one another, they were already close as sisters after these few days of interaction.

“Who is this Little Dark Demon?”

Little fox asked curiously.

A reminiscent look flashed through Aiden’s eyes as he replied sadly, “It was a little beast that I picked up in the Iron Mountain Range more in the long past. It should have grown up by now.”

At the mention of Dark Demon, monkey, the spirit tiger, and little crane let out looks of concern.

After all, the few of them witnessed Dark Demon’s birth and growth in Azure Myst Sect back then.

Dark Demon was picky with food and would not touch the flesh of ordinary demon beasts.

In order to feed Dark Demon, monkey, the spirit tiger, and little crane fought through the jungle and sustained injuries all over to obtain different flesh so that Dark Demon could taste them all.

Although that period of time was tough and dangerous, they were ecstatic as they watched the Dark Demon grow bit by bit.

It felt like everything was worth it!

Dark Demon was well-behaved the moment he was born and knew who was good to him.

His fangs and claws were extremely sharp but he had never bared them to monkey, the spirit tiger, and little crane.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen that cub. I wonder what he’s like now that he’s grown up. Does he still remember us?” Monkey was in a rare emotional state.

In the blink of an eye, more than 20 years had passed.

Aiden gazed into the distance and murmured, “20 years ago, Dark Demon is far away with Aiden’s mortal friends, secretly protecting them on the other side of the world. I wonder if we’ll get to meet them again this time round in the intermediate ancient battlefield.”

“There should be no issues including Dark Demon with us, right?” The spirit tiger asked.

Monkey and Kiki nodded.

There was naturally no way little fox would object to it – she was satisfied as long as Aiden was inside.

The Golden Lion was a little confused and did not know what Dark Demon was. However, he shrugged to express that he was fine with it since everyone agreed to it.

The spirit tiger shifted his gaze and coughed gently. “Since we’re swearing to be siblings, we should talk about seniority. If we make that clear, we can’t change that in the future, right?”

Monkey scoffed coldly as he saw through the spirit tiger’s intentions right away. “Why, you want to be the boss?”

“N-N-No!”

The spirit tiger shuddered in shock and waved it off immediately with a sheepish smile. “No way! Even if I thought that way, I wouldn’t have the balls. Heh!”

There were a total of seven of them along with Dark Demon and there were demons and mortals. Everything would definitely be a mess if they judged purely based on age.

“What do you have in mind? Hurry and spit it out!” Kiki extended her legs and kicked the spirit tiger again.

The spirit tiger was not frustrated. Instead, it said joyfully with a slight excitement, “Aiden is the reason why we’re all here today. He’s the only one suitable to be the big brother. Furthermore, it’s undeniable that he’s the strongest.”

Everyone nodded.

Monkey had no objections either.

He had a prideful nature and he wouldn’t object to Aiden being the only one that was ranked before him.

Aiden smiled calmly without interrupting and merely listened to how the spirit tiger wanted things to be arranged.

Invigorated, the spirit tiger wagged its tail and smiled in a pandering manner to monkey. “Only Brother Monkey has the right to be second!”

“Firstly, Brother Monkey knew our Big Brother the earliest and is the most experienced. Secondly, apart from Big Brother, Brother Monkey is the strongest in combat.”

Monkey was satisfied with the explanation and grinned.n-(1n

Kiki, little fox and the Golden Lion naturally had no objections.

Actually, the spirit tiger wanted to be the second place as well.

However, he was most likely going to be tormented back and forth by monkey if he took over that position. As such, he decided against it.

The spirit tiger took a deep breath and cleared his throat, saying deeply with a solemn expression, “I guess you will have to be the third!”

“I knew Big Brother a long time ago and I’m strong as well!”

The spirit tiger patted his chest and declared with gusto.

This was his true intention.

With this position settled, he could openly bully everyone at the back in the future!

Of course, he could not bully Kiki.

Little fox was protected by Aiden so he could not touch her as well.

There was Dark Demon but… he had better forget about that.

With that, there was only Golden Hair left.

In the past few days, given the violent objection of the Golden Lion, he finally fought for a slightly better name for himself, from Yellow Hair to Golden Hair…

At least with the ‘Golden’ word, he would not be disgracing the bloodline of the Golden Lions.

The spirit tiger glared at the Golden Lion and snickered evilly.

With that arrangement, Kiki would logically be number four.

There was not much to discuss about the first four spots.

However, the Golden Lion was pretty done by the time it came to number five.

According to the spirit tiger’s arrangement, Dark Demon would be number five.

After all, Dark Demon was the first to know Aiden after monkey, the spirit tiger, and Kiki.

However, the Golden Lion did not know who Dark Demon was at all!

He was definitely indignant being ranked behind a little beast that he had never seen before.

Yet, immediately after, he was suppressed mercilessly by monkey, the spirit tiger and Kiki.

His objections were to no avail!

Little fox was number six.

The Golden Lion hid in a corner with misty eyes, a few slaps on his face, and a few footprints on his body. He had a gloomy look on his face and no longer spoke…

The spirit tiger laughed when he looked at the Golden Lion. “Golden Hair, are you happy to be number seven?”

The Golden Lion seethed at the smug look on the spirit tiger’s face.

Monkey teased, “It’s okay, Golden Hair. If we have anyone else joining us in the future, they will be placed behind you.”

“Brother Golden Hair, although I’m in front of you, I’m not going to bully you!” Little fox said with an earnest expression.

The Golden Lion wanted to cry.

To be fair, he truly could not afford to mess with the people before him.

Although little fox was the weakest, she was protected by Aiden.

There was only a single person he was indignant about the more he thought about it.

“I don’t know who this Dark Demon is but you better stay away from me! Otherwise, I’m going to teach you a good lesson so that you hand over the number five position, little thing!”

“How dare a nameless little beast climb over my head. Hmph!”

The Golden Lion rubbed his palms and grumbled internally.
