"Just so I'm not mistaken somewhere, we only need a soul, right?"
That was Bai Jingshen's question.
Alex was taken aback for a moment. "Not just any soul," he quickly explained, but he shouldn't have. Bai Jingshen already knew that. But then what was that question?
Bai Jingshen nodded as if expecting that answer. "Then all we need is a single soul," he said, seemingly falling into contemplation. "This isn't meant to be used this way, but what choice do I have now?"
Alex was about to ask what the White Tiger was talking about when Bai Jingshen lifted his left limb and touched his earring. A sonorous ringing filled the air instantly as the golden earring glowed with a bright light.
Alex stepped back, wondering what new miracle Bai Jingshen was attempting to perform this time with his earring. Hope blossomed within him.
Something grew from the earring, from the light. It became larger and larger, until it took the shape of a soft-blue translucent human. A soul.
