The Entire Sect is Full of Villains, Yet the Junior Sister Conquers All

Chapter 241 : Old Fool, Don't Hinder Me from Latching onto a Powerful Backer!

Tantai Ming wanted to quickly return the egg to avoid this unwarranted disaster, but the Beast King had already been blinded by rage, believing these human cultivators had harmed his egg. Tantai Ming had no chance to explain and was forced to hastily dodge back and forth.

Even when he finally had a chance to explain, the Beast King wouldn't believe him. As a wave of demon energy fiercely fell, a golden light suddenly burst from the young man's body, followed by something flying out with a crisp "Crack—".

Huh?

Tantai Ming and the Beast King both stopped in their tracks, staring at each other wide-eyed. A head-sized egg appeared in mid-air, covered by a layer of demon energy barrier. With the Beast King's attack that couldn't be withdrawn in time, part of the demon energy broke through the barrier, causing a crack to appear on the egg's surface.

"Ah, my child!"

The Beast King's face changed instantly, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

Tantai Ming's hands were also shaking a bit. He quickly turned the tables, saying, "This... you saw it, right? This isn't my fault! I told you I didn't do anything, the egg was fine. You're the one who cracked it yourself!"

"Roar! You insolent brat, you dare quibble! Not only did you empty this king's palace, but you also stole this king's egg. You despicable lot even dare to use the egg as a hostage to threaten me! I'll kill you all to accompany it in death!"

"Ah, uncle, why are you being so unreasonable? Didn't you see with those two eyes of yours bigger than my head? The egg suddenly flew out to block the attack on its own. I didn't pull it out to shield me. How can you falsely accuse me like this!"

"Nonsense, this egg had long since......"

"Wah~"

Before the Beast King could finish his anguished words, a milky beast roar suddenly broke the tense atmosphere between man and beast.

Instantly, both Tantai Ming and the Beast King were stunned. Their gazes simultaneously fell on the egg floating in the air. The crack on the egg's surface grew larger and larger until it split into two halves, revealing a small golden qilin.

The little qilin was hairless, covered with thin layers of scales. Having just been born, these scales were thin and soft, looking pink and tender. It didn't resemble the domineering qilin of legend at all, instead appearing fragile and delicate, as if it could be crushed with one hand.

However, both Tantai Ming and the Beast King present softened their breathing, as if afraid their movements might threaten this newly arrived small beast.

After a few seconds of stupefaction, the Beast King came to his senses, his face lighting up with joy, "My precious daughter, you, you're alive!"

Years ago, the Beast Queen encountered an accident during childbirth, and the egg was also damaged. For a hundred years, it had failed to hatch. Even though the Beast King had tried every method over these hundred years, he couldn't get the egg to hatch successfully. Later, he could only keep it in the palace, nourishing it with spirit liquid.

He had almost given up, never expecting that after a hundred years, he would see this egg successfully hatch. His joy was indescribable!

The little qilin glanced at the overjoyed Beast King not far away, but seemed quite unimpressed with him. It lightly swished its tail and nimbly leaped from the air into Tantai Ming's arms.

Seeing this, the Beast King was deeply hurt. He angrily accused the human cultivators of bewitching his precious daughter, making her choose to side with humans!

Tantai Ming was also stunned for a moment, his large puppy-like eyes with slightly drooping corners widening. He was somewhat at a loss as he held the small beast in his arms, not knowing where to put his hands. Chu Sang, having successfully defeated that Beast King and freed herself, came over upon seeing this scene. She flashed over with an exclamation, "A qilin! Possessing the bloodline of the ancient divine beast qilin. Seventh Senior Brother, where did you get such a small qilin?"

Seeing the Beast King glaring fiercely but not daring to make a move from afar, her mind quickly turned, and she lowered her voice, "This wouldn't happen to be the egg we took from the Gold Beast King's palace earlier, would it?"

"It hatched!"

"Tsk, much earlier than I imagined. I thought it would take at least half a year or so."

"When the Beast King attacked me just now, this little qilin that hadn't hatched yet helped block it, and accidentally hatched prematurely. But from the looks of it, there are no wounds on its body, and it's lively and active, so there shouldn't be any major issues......"

Seeing that the little qilin paid no attention to the Beast King who was eager to see his daughter, and instead was quite dependent on Tantai Ming, frequently nuzzling against his chest, Chu Sang squinted and stroked her chin, guessing, "......Seventh Senior Brother, I... why do I feel like it seems to think you're its mother?"

Tantai Ming's heart trembled. He quickly pulled the little qilin off himself and turned its head towards the Beast King, saying righteously but nervously, "I'm not your mother, do you see clearly? That qilin is of the same lineage as you, it's your parent!"

The little qilin remained unmoved, persistently nuzzling against him. Chu Sang thought seriously again and changed her words, "Qilins shouldn't be that stupid, unable to distinguish between human cultivators and demon beasts. I think it's probably coveting your innate spirit body's bloodline. After all, it was your blood that brought it back to life. It might have an innate dependence on your blood...... Since that's the case, you might as well keep it!"

If Chu Sang remembered correctly, Seventh Senior Brother had always wanted to raise a demon beast. When she and Tantai Ming first met years ago, it was because he had accidentally stolen an egg from a qilin Beast King, wanting to take it back as a contracted beast pet. He was quite upset for a while after returning that Liujin Qilin beast's egg...... Uh, this scene was somewhat familiar. Seventh Senior Brother was truly a professional egg thief.

Unfortunately, after all this time, Tantai Ming had never encountered a more suitable contracted demon beast. This little qilin had an even purer bloodline than the qilin he encountered back then, more compatible with his spirit root.

She had always said, the best is yet to come!

If Tantai Ming said he had no intention of contracting with the little qilin, it would be somewhat hypocritical. But after all, this egg was secretly taken from the Beast King's palace. If they contracted someone else's child, the Beast King might think they deliberately kidnapped a hostage and hate them even more.

He still had some sense, returning the little qilin was the right thing to do!

"My precious daughter, come back quickly! Those despicable humans will hurt you!"

"Shut up, old fool."

?

Damn, who was so bold as to use such an arrogant tone to scold the Beast King!

Chu Sang and Tantai Ming stared at each other wide-eyed, it wasn't her/him who said it!

The little qilin in the young man's arms waved its paw, raising its small face. It was the one who had spoken.

It could actually speak?

Oh, right, they had almost forgotten, this wasn't a real qilin cub. It had been born a hundred years ago. Although it hadn't hatched, it was a genuine hundred-year-old demon beast.

Demon beasts of Beast King bloodline, once born, have at least Golden Core cultivation.

Golden Core stage demon beasts can understand human speech.

The little qilin's words were utterly disrespectful, "Old fool, hurry up and leave, don't get in the way here. Go back? I'd rather die than go back! You'd better give up on that idea!"

Years ago, the Beast King was only concerned with fighting other Beast Kings, and many demon cultivators under him secretly rebelled, accumulating too many enemies. So when the Beast Queen was giving birth, those enemies came to seek revenge, causing problems during the birth, leading to its premature birth and inability to hatch for a long time.

To make matters worse, this old fool was so stupid afterwards, finding many fraudulent demon priests, not only were they useless, but they made it weaker and weaker, falling into deeper and deeper sleep. In the end, when the Beast King ran out of ideas, he even abandoned it in the palace, neglecting it. It almost didn't wake up!

Now, it had finally found a human cultivator with an innate spirit body who could use blood to help it reconstruct its beast body, and this old fool actually wanted it to go back??

Hmph, don't even think about it!

Old fool, don't hinder it from flying high and latching onto a powerful backer!

For a moment, the scene was somewhat awkward.

The most awkward was the old Beast King. He rubbed his nose, never expecting to be abandoned by his daughter like this.

The little qilin would rather die than return. No matter how much he cursed these despicable human cultivators for bewitching his daughter and turning her into a hostage, he was helpless. He couldn't continue fighting, could he? His daughter was still in the hands of these human cultivators. What if they used her as a sacrifice?

"Beast King, why don't we negotiate a truce?" Chu Sang patted the little qilin's head, saying with a friendly face.

The Beast King's face changed, but having no other options, he nodded coldly, "How do you want to negotiate?"

"There's no need for the Beast King to be so tense. We won't do anything to your daughter, nor have we used any spiritual tools or techniques to control her. It's simply because my Seventh Senior Brother's physique is special, his blood can help your daughter restore her beast body."

"I believe the Beast King is aware of your daughter's condition. She has been unable to hatch for a long time due to physical damage. If it weren't for my Seventh Senior Brother's blood at that time, perhaps she still wouldn't have been able to hatch until now. It could even be said... we are your daughter's life-saving benefactors. Beast King, both emotionally and rationally, you shouldn't attack us, right?" she said with a smile.

This was indeed the truth. Although the Beast King didn't particularly like human cultivators, he wasn't a fool who couldn't understand reason. He knew his daughter's condition well. Unable to hatch for a hundred years, the chances were slim, there was little hope. He had even thought about giving up. Unexpectedly, his daughter successfully hatched. Could it be... as they said, that boy's physique was special, the legendary physique blessed by heaven and earth?

The Beast King's anger subsided slightly, and his eyes looked at Tantai Ming with more careful consideration. If this boy before him truly had a special physique blessed by heaven and earth, letting his daughter follow him might not be a bad idea.

When the relationship between the demon realm and the cultivation world wasn't so deteriorated, contracts between cultivators and the demon realm were very common. Basically, out of every two demon beasts, one would choose to contract with a cultivator.

Outside, they would also have a loyal companion to take care of them.

If a cultivator's luck and talent were extremely strong, they could even help the demon beast cultivate. So many demon beasts wanted to find a highly talented cultivator to contract with. For them, it was definitely more beneficial than harmful, and if they encountered a master favored by heaven and earth, it would be all benefit and no harm!

The Beast King instantly understood why his daughter was so persistent.
