Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 925: 925 Wants to Steal Big Playboy Mu’s Belongings?!

Mu Hanyan and the others initially thought they were heading to the Longyan Mountains for training and treasure hunting, but after hearing this, they realized their true destination was Fang Village.

In the eyes of Mu Hanyan and Huayue, there was a flash of anger. A few days ago, when the news first arrived, even the Fang Family Head might not have reacted quickly enough. Letting some people take advantage was one thing, but now someone was directly targeting that territory, wasn’t this akin to snatching food from a tiger’s mouth?

Of course, when Mu Hanyan bought this territory, it didn’t cost much silver taels, so it was quite a bargain, but that was a bargain he got with the strength and eye power of Mu Dashi.

The most important thing is, Mu Hanyan’s Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pond and Cold Sky Sword are still in Fang Village. Besides, many desolate mountains and wilderness have become a Treasure Bowl. Even if this matter hadn’t occurred, Mu Hanyan would never consider transferring the territory to someone else.

Mu Hanyan was a bit puzzled as to why such a huge event had occurred, yet he hadn’t received any news. But after thinking it through, it dawned on him that the incident happened too suddenly, and the Fang Family Head was likely overwhelmed. The people sent to notify him probably missed him on the road.

I wonder who dares to have such thoughts about Mu Hanyan’s territory!

”Let’s go, Brother Zhang, we’re also heading to Fang Family’s Workshop to take a look.” Initially, Mu Hanyan intended to handle serious business before visiting Fang Village, but upon hearing this, he decided to change his mind and visit Fang Village first.

Simultaneously, as Mu Hanyan’s group was heading to Fang Village, miles away, under a majestic and perilous peak, another group was also rushing towards Fang Family’s Workshop.

”Master Nian, are you certain about your judgment?” asked a young man with a stern face and a hint of cold intent between his brows, directing the question to the elder beside him.

”Even if you don’t trust me, you should believe in the Beast Spirit Pearl I’m holding.” The elder, short and unimpressive in appearance, had an expression of utmost confidence.

”I naturally believe in Master Nian’s prowess, but what you mentioned earlier far exceeded my expectations; it’s truly unbelievable,” said the young man, showing a bit of respect in his demeanor.

This elder was named Nian An Yao, a Beast Taming Master who had been renowned in the Capital for decades with his exceptional Beast Taming Technique. Some even say that after the Beast Taming Sword Saint Xia Youchen, he is the most powerful Beast Tamer in Anyun Country.

Apart from his Beast Taming Technique, the Beast Spirit Pearl in his hand is an extremely rare treasure in the world. It is said to be transformed from the Divine Core of an Ancient Divine Beast, not only sensing the aura of Exotic Beasts but also capable of taming them.

It’s worth noting that although Exotic Beasts aren’t considered rare in the Holy Court Continent, most hide amidst towering mountains and ridges, possessing high intelligence. Their innate ability to seek fortune and avoid misfortune far surpasses that of humans. Many treasure hunters, if careless, might get injured by the powerful Exotic Beasts. Attempting to capture them, they are as cunning as foxes and swift as rabbits, possibly wandering for months without spotting a single one.

And even if one manages to capture an Exotic Beast with tremendous effort, taming it is an almost insurmountable task.

Of course, seeking out Exotic Beast Eggs to hatch and raise is a good approach, but the more powerful the Exotic Beast, the more thorough its protection of its offspring, making Exotic Beast Eggs not easy to find.

Therefore, to have a powerful Exotic Beast, the best method is to directly capture and tame an adult Exotic Beast.

With the Beast Spirit Pearl in hand and his considerable Beast Taming Technique, Nian An Yao is a sought-after expert in the Capital, his fame surpassing even figures like Shen Moce.

”If not for the notes left by my Nian family ancestors and the hints from this Beast Spirit Pearl, I might not have believed it either.

In the ancestral notes, there is a recorded legend—hundreds of thousands of years ago, a Divine Beast illusion transformed from a Seven-Colored Divine Light fell from the Nine Heavens beneath Aolai Peak, causing the mountains to crumble, the earth to shatter, and all life to perish. It took almost a millennium for Aolai Peak to regain vitality.

In the years following, Aolai Peak frequently saw unusual occurrences, with strange flowers and herbs and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures emerging abundantly, attracting countless strong men to vie for them.

There is a legend that beneath Aolai Peak, a great secret is hidden, and whoever unlocks this secret will become the strongest on the continent.

But some also say that the secret hidden under Aolai Peak carries immense peril. Unlocking this secret could either lead to becoming the continent’s most powerful, or possibly bring catastrophic disaster to the entire continent,” said Nian An Yao with a serious expression.

”Master Nian, what’s the relation between Aolai Peak, which you spoke of, and this Flying Peak?” The young man listened intently but couldn’t comprehend, so he asked.

”Hold on, I’m not finished yet.” Nian An Yao cleared his throat and continued, ”Regardless of which legend is true or false, one thing is consistent—uncovering the secret beneath Aolai Peak offers the hope of becoming the strongest on the continent.

Suddenly, powerful figures from all corners flocked to contend for it, with numerous talents losing their lives beneath Aolai Peak, causing turmoil across the continent.

As the continent witnessed countless slaughters among the powerful, leaving even the Royal Families and the Holy Court helpless, Aolai Peak suddenly vanished.

Within a radius of a thousand miles, the towering peak disappeared just like that. No matter how those experts searched, they couldn’t find a trace of Aolai Peak. Even many powerful individuals who hadn’t visited Aolai Peak suspected the legend to be false.

Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and the legend of Aolai Peak has gradually faded, with even its name forgotten.

If not for your invitation prompting me to come and witness the various anomalies of Flying Peak, I wouldn’t have dared to believe this Flying Peak is the Aolai Peak mentioned in my ancestor’s notes,” Nian An Yao said with emotion.

”What, you say this Flying Peak is Aolai Peak!” The young man, though having his suspicions before, was still utterly shocked upon hearing Nian An Yao’s confirmation.

”Yes, according to the ancestral speculation, that falling Seven-Colored Beast Shadow from the Nine Heavens was transformed by the Divine Sense of a fallen Divine Beast. This beast was so powerful that despite its physical form being destroyed, its Divine Sense didn’t completely vanish, falling onto our Holy Court Continent.

For ordinary Divine Beasts, even if their Divine Sense doesn’t perish immediately after death, as time passes, it would dissipate between heaven and earth. But you saw the nine pillars of light rising from the Beast Spirit Pearl. People only know my Beast Spirit Pearl can locate Exotic Beasts, but they don’t realize it can also discern the strength of Exotic Beasts.

The stronger the Exotic Beast, the more light pillars the Beast Spirit Pearl emits, while with weaker Exotic Beasts, there are fewer light pillars. If encountering a Royal Griffin, which is already considered a very powerful Exotic Beast in the eyes of most, the Beast Spirit Pearl only emits four light pillars.
