Chapter 1356: Still So Shameless at a Time Like This
Although the Angry Dragon Beast is known for its offensive prowess, its defense is not as strong as the Fierce Stone Demon. Still, as the descendant of the legendary Divine Dragon, its defense is far superior to that of ordinary Exotic Beasts. However, in front of that young girl and that peculiar Exotic Beast, its movements became incredibly slow, its attacks completely ineffective, and even its defense seemed utterly useless.Watching the spray of blood and hearing the mournful and helpless wails, Yan Zishu and the others felt their hearts tremble.
Violence, such violence, cruelty, such cruelty!
Of course, this wasn’t about Mu Hanyan but the little Exotic Beast by her side. Lady Mu, while kicking and punching, maintained her elegance quite well. But the Exotic Beast, which looked like a little cat, had no semblance of image at all, kicking and pulling, scratching and biting, almost engraving "lawless" on its forehead.
And yet, this wasn’t the most terrifying thing. The most frightening thing was when it saw the Angry Dragon Beast covering its head, unable to find a place to strike, it rolled its eyes, circled around behind the Angry Dragon Beast, and then extended its little paw...
"Woo..." The Angry Dragon Beast let out an extremely shrill cry.
Yan Zishu and the others instinctively clamped their legs together, cold sweat pouring profusely.
Not only is it violent, not only is it cruel, this little thing is simply filthy and obscene to the extreme.
"Hehe, where did this guy learn that move? So shameless." Zirong managed a smile through the pain from the poison.
Huayue and the others looked at him deeply, he was still poisoned, better not to hit him now. At such a moment, this guy is still so shameless.
"Do you submit or not, do you submit or not?" Taking advantage of the Angry Dragon Beast’s mournful roar, Taowu turned again and rushed to its front, scratching at its face with relentless little paws.
If you don’t submit, beat you until you do. This has been the unyielding belief of the Four Great Fierce Beasts, and it is also their infallible method to command thousands of Exotic Beasts.
"Woo..." The Angry Dragon Beast mourned again, as two halos descended from the heavens, enveloping it and Yan Zishu, who was still in a daze, respectively.
Heaven and Earth Contract, activated!
"Alright, success!" Mu Hanyan clapped her hands, speaking with a relaxed expression.
The reason she dared to take on the task of taming the Angry Dragon Beast for Yan Zishu was simple.
Ever since Little Qiongqi effortlessly defeated that Fierce Stone Demon, she knew that the Divine Beast Contract was not just a contract between Divine Beasts but also between Heaven and Earth and Exotic Beasts. Even if the Spiritual Mark in the bloodline of the Fierce Stone Demon was erased, the Heaven and Earth Contract remained effective. If encountered by the original owner, Heaven and Earth Rules could still take effect.
So, Mu Hanyan specifically studied the hierarchy between the Four Great Fierce Beasts and other Divine Beasts, and learned that the Angry Dragon Beast originally had a Master-Servant Contract with Taowu, subject to its control for eternity.
Not to mention that this Angry Dragon Beast has been in Yan Zishu’s possession for over thirty years without its Spiritual Mark being erased by the mysterious Exotic Beast deep in Longyan Mountain (according to Mu Hanyan’s guess, it was likely a Netherworld Beast). Even if it had been erased, based on the Heaven and Earth Contract, Mu Hanyan could easily tame it.
Things turned out even easier than Mu Hanyan had imagined. The Angry Dragon Beast’s Spiritual Mark was indeed intact, and not even needing the Heaven and Earth Rules to take effect, it was suppressed entirely by Taowu’s instinctual Divine Beast authority, making its attack ineffective and defense futile, with no power to resist against Mu Hanyan and Taowu’s joint beating.
"How, how did you manage this?" Yan Zishu stammered for the umpteenth time, the surprises Mu Hanyan brought him were countless, simply overwhelming.
Over these years, in order to tame the Angry Dragon Beast as a Sword Pet, he studied countless Beast Taming Techniques and numerous mnemonics, all encompassing the benevolence of Heaven and Earth, the virtue of the heavens, it was said that Beast Tamers relied on this to enlighten Exotic Beasts for their command. To show his altruism, he treated the Angry Dragon Beast with utmost care, providing it with the best food, drink, and premium elixirs without a hint of stinginess, almost worshipping it like an ancestor, yet never succeeded in taming it.
Who would have thought, without any discernment, Mu Hanyan went up and battered it, effortlessly taming it with such a Beast Taming Technique that Yan Zishu hadn’t seen or even heard of before, completely overturning his understanding of Beast Taming Technique.
"My Beast Taming Technique is a little different from others." Mu Hanyan said vaguely.
In fact, only she could use this Beast Taming Technique. In others’ hands, it was either courting death or fatal to the Exotic Beast.
The reason is simple, Exotic Beasts have their dignity too, and the stronger they are, the more pride they have. Faced with such inhumane oppression, most Exotic Beasts would rather fight to the death than submit. However, equally, the world of Exotic Beasts is one where the strong are revered. In front of the powerful existence of the Four Great Fierce Beasts, their dignity crumbles, under that Divine Beast might, not even entertaining thoughts of mutual destruction.
"Oh, so that’s how it is." Although Yan Zishu was still puzzled, every sect has its secrets, boldly inquiring about others’ secrets is a taboo, so he didn’t pursue it further.
"By the way, what is this young lady’s surname?" Yan Zishu cupped his hands and asked. He no longer dared to underestimate Mu Hanyan, treating her with peerage courtesy.
"Junior Mu Hanyan, these are my friends, Huayue, Zirong, Jiang Yuzhe, Ling Baobao." Seeing his change in attitude, Mu Hanyan responded amiably.
"So you are Mu Hanyan!" Yan Zishu and the others were greatly surprised.
They had been staying at the Yan Family these days and hadn’t attended the Sword Sound Academy competition but had heard of Mu Hanyan’s renown.
Unexpectedly, besides her astonishing cultivation, she also showed remarkable skills in alchemy, sword forging, and beast taming, recalling their previous underestimation of Mu Hanyan, and even considering her as Doctor Sun’s disciple, their shame was overwhelming.
"Senior Yan, I have completed the three tasks, can my friend be treated now?" Mu Hanyan waved her hand casually, sending Taowu back to Beast Soul Hall, then asked Yan Zishu.
Another few hours had passed, though Mu Hanyan had sealed a few meridians leading to Zirong’s Heart Meridian, it obviously wouldn’t hold for much longer as the dark aura on his face thickened.
"Follow me inside." This time, Yan Zishu didn’t say any more, leading the group to a Quiet Room in the back.
The guards’ injuries were severe but not difficult ailments, the Yan Family had several medicinal experts, naturally, he didn’t need to attend to them.
"Danling Hall" was inscribed in large rustic characters above the Quiet Room, and judging by the weathered stone walls, they evidently endured thousands, even more, years of erosion by the elements.
