Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

”Give it to me, stop it, stop it,” Xia Youchen was a bit panicked as he loudly ordered the Qiongqi Divine Beast.

The Qiongqi Divine Beast’s figure was no longer as ethereal as before, it now had a semblance of solidity, appearing even more imposing and fierce.

Upon hearing Xia Youchen’s order, the Qiongqi roared towards the sky and gave chase... well, not exactly a blockade, but rather followed behind the Exotic Beast Egg, occasionally reaching out a claw to swipe at it, swipe at it, swipe at it, looking very excited indeed. Of course, it didn’t actually touch the Exotic Beast Egg, just followed behind, scratching and clawing.

... Not to mention Mu Hanyan and the others, even Xia Youchen was stunned.

Is this really one of the Four Great Evil Beasts that legends say feeds on humans? How come it looks more like a kitten chasing a ball of yarn frolicking around? Oh no, that’s not quite right, it still looks more imposing than a kitten, like a giant pet dog.

While he was still in a daze, another loud noise rang out, and Xia Youchen was once again sent flying, along with a piece of bluestone half as tall as a man behind him, which was also blasted into shards.

And that kitten—no, the giant pet dog-like one of the Four Great Fierce Beasts—still chased after the ”Rubber Ball,” extending its paw to swipe at it, and a claw scrape here and there.

Xia Youchen’s face had turned white, not knowing whether from anger or fear.

There was no hope in the Qiongqi, if this kept up, he would eventually be bounced to death.

The mighty Beast Taming Sword Saint, who had waited a thousand years to finally achieve his wish, would end up being bounced to death by an egg. If this were to get out, it was bound to become not only the biggest and funniest joke in Anyun Country but also in the entire Holy Court Continent.

”Run!” Xia Youchen wouldn’t dare entertain the idea of fighting it anymore; he made a split-second decision to leap up, ready to use Wind Control Skill to escape.

Observing Xia Youchen’s actions, Mu Hanyan secretly admired him. No wonder he had repeatedly broken out of encirclements by Chenxing Academy in the past. Capable of taking decisive action, the Beast Taming Sword Saint was indeed a character.

Faced with such a Beast Egg, even a fool would know it was out of the ordinary, let alone a Beast Taming Master like him. Yet he managed to give it up so cleanly and decisively.

However, unfortunately, Xia Youchen had rebuilt his body too recently, his strength had not recovered to its peak, and the successive attacks from the Beast Egg had not left him lightly wounded, his movements clearly a beat too slow.

Just as he had ascended, he was once again harshly struck by the Exotic Beast Egg, his body twisted in the air, and he collided with the cliffside anew.

This time, Xia Youchen was even more severely injured, actually spewing a mouthful of fresh blood; considering his body was as desiccated as a mummified corpse bound in skin and bone with scarcely any blood, this gush of fresh blood made him seem even more shriveled.

”You, are you purposely trying to put me to death?” Xia Youchen had dominated his era, even when he had been encircled by the combined forces of Chenxing Academy, various aristocratic families, and the Anyun Royal Family, he had never been so embarrassed. A wave of sorrow arose from his heart, and with a tragic look, he cried out to the heavens.

Is this the legendary tiger that falls flat on the plains to be bullied by dogs... oh, by eggs? Observing Xia Youchen, disheveled and wearing ragged clothes, even Mu Hanyan couldn’t help but feel some pity.

Unfortunately, what stood in front of him was an egg that bounced around like a Rubber Ball, incapable of understanding what he was saying, with no sense of pity to speak of, it accelerated and bounced away once more.

”I must have rotten luck for eight lifetimes, just what kind of monster is this!” Xia Youchen cursed under his breath and continued to run.

Thus, a man and an egg, followed by a giant pet dog, started playing hide-and-seek amongst the scattered rocks.

Unconsciously, Xia Youchen had fled back to the ruins of the temple. His eyes suddenly lit up.

Reaching out, he grabbed a young man with a panic-stricken face.

Qu Fengting, how come this guy hadn’t left?
