Beast Taming: I'm Really Not a Cultivation Master

Chapter 424: Chapter 393: White Dragon

Intercepted by the white-haired woman’s barrier of light, the Demon Dragon Remnant Soul, now a swirling mass of purple-black gas, was seething. It let out a roar, spun around, and prepared to flee in another direction.

Seeing this, the white-haired woman remained perfectly still, acting as if she hadn’t even noticed its attempt to escape.

’It’s come to this. My chances of escape are minuscule. Those cunning humans deliberately set this trap just to eliminate me.’

’After all, as long as I’m alive, I’m a ticking time bomb hanging over this city.’

’They’ve been dying to get rid of me, and now that they finally have the chance, they won’t let it slip away.’

’Of course, even though I know the situation, there’s no way I’ll surrender without a fight.’

’Even if it’s just a final, desperate struggle, I will struggle.’

High above Mo Yuan City, the fiery red Sparrow Shadow, having already devoured most of the Demon Dragon Remnant Soul, didn’t stop. With a spin, it dove unhesitatingly toward the rest.

This wasn’t about pursuing a weakened foe to the bitter end; it was because only by devouring the entire Demon Dragon Remnant Soul could it complete its transformation.

Therefore, it could not possibly let the Demon Dragon Remnant Soul escape.

”SKREEE...”

The Sparrow Shadow dove down with incredible speed, unleashing a wave of scorching heat. In the blink of an eye, a torrent of flames engulfed the last of the Demon Dragon Remnant Soul.

”No! I won’t accept this! I refuse to accept this! How can I die here!” Enveloped in blazing flames, the purple-black mass of gas erupted with furious roars.

But the cries grew fainter and weaker, until at last, they faded away into nothingness.

”SKREEE...”

The fiery red Sparrow Shadow unleashed its scorching flames. No matter how its prey struggled, it held it tight, ultimately devouring the Demon Dragon Remnant Soul completely.

After devouring the Demon Dragon Remnant Soul, it flapped its wings again, soaring into the sky in a flash and beginning to circle and cry out.

It was clearly exhilarated, the Energy within its body filled to the point of overflowing.

It circled in the sky, its form continuously expanding. The light and heat radiating from its body grew more intense, more dazzling, until... it became a small sun hanging in the sky.

Yes, at that moment, nearly every Beast Master in Mo Yuan City looked up and saw two suns hanging in the sky—one large, and one small.

The large one was the real sun; the small one was the unique, transforming Golden Crowned Red Feather Chicken.

”Don’t tell me it’s actually evolving into the Legendary Level Three-legged Golden Crow!” Inside the now-unrecognizable evolution stadium, Li Qian stared at the sky. He couldn’t help but gulp before muttering to himself.

After saying this, Li Qian stopped what he was doing and immediately took off, running toward the Teleportation Plaza.

”Take the car,” Hongbing Monarch said, knowing what Li Qian wanted to do. He beckoned to him.

Li Qian didn’t stand on ceremony. He ran straight over. A moment later, the two of them were outside the evolution stadium, where a hover car was already waiting.

Nearby, Lanxin Monarch Xiahou Lan awkwardly withdrew his hand. He had wanted to make a good impression by personally escorting Li Qian, but he never expected Hongbing Monarch to beat him to it.

He didn’t dwell on it, immediately getting in his own car and following them. He, too, was incredibly anxious to see whether the evolution had succeeded.

Meanwhile, as Li Qian and Xiahou Lan were rushing toward the Teleportation Plaza, Wen Zebin and Jiang Xueling arrived at the scene.

Wen Zebin looked at the white-haired woman. Her aura felt vaguely familiar, but her face was a complete mystery. In a respectful tone, he asked, ”Elder, may I ask who you are?”

’She’s almost certainly a Legendary Level powerhouse. Even if she isn’t human, but one of the Extraordinary Creatures, I must show her respect.’

The white-haired woman turned to Wen Zebin and smiled faintly. ”After helping you train your Pet Beasts so many times, I didn’t think you’d forget me.”

Hearing that familiar voice and connecting it with her words, Wen Zebin reacted instantly. His eyes widened in shock. ”You’re... Elder Bai Long!”

He stared at the white-haired woman, his eyes filled with astonishment, and his voice was laced with disbelief. ”You’ve actually broken through to the Legendary Level!”

Shaking his head, he continued, ”And Teacher Lu kept this completely under wraps! He didn’t let a single word out!”

Yes, at that moment, it all clicked for Wen Zebin. He finally remembered and understood the true identity of the white-haired woman before him.

Just as he suspected, the white-haired woman was indeed not human, but a Pet Beast contracted to Teacher Lu—the White Dragon.

The Pet Beast, White Dragon, had previously only been at the Holy Spirit Peak Power Level. He never imagined that after not seeing her for some time, she would have already broken through to the Legendary Level.

’So this was Teacher Lu’s backup plan,’ he thought, a sense of resignation washing over him. ’In the end, he still didn’t trust me.’

’But it’s a good thing he didn’t trust me and left this plan in place. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable.’

Hearing this, the white-haired woman proudly raised her slender, pale neck. ”I was contracted to Elder Lu for just as long as that big fish. If it could break through to the Legendary Level, isn’t it perfectly normal for me to do so as well?”

She glanced at Wen Zebin and spoke up on Teacher Lu’s behalf. ”As for keeping it a secret, Elder Lu probably didn’t want to. It was most likely for what happened today.”

”Teacher Lu really is something else...” Wen Zebin listened, a wry smile spreading across his face. He didn’t know what to say.

The white-haired woman picked up where he left off, teasing him bluntly, ”Elder Lu really does know you well...”

”What do you mean?” Wen Zebin paused, not understanding at first.

The white-haired woman explained unhurriedly, ”He knew that with you guarding Mo Yuan City, something was bound to go wrong sooner or later. So he stationed me here in advance to deal with any emergencies.”

”Er...” Wen Zebin’s expression turned extremely awkward. He looked as if he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. ”Is that really what Teacher Lu thinks of me...?”

The white-haired woman just smiled. She glanced around at the devastated surroundings, spread her hands, and said honestly, ”But isn’t that what happened?”

”I...” Wen Zebin was rendered speechless.

’I guess Teacher Lu really does know me well,’ he could only think.

Beside him, Jiang Xueling was struggling to hold back his laughter and nearly burst out laughing.

He was suddenly very grateful that Legend Xiao hadn’t passed the position of Executive Guardian Envoy to him back then. Otherwise, he would be the one getting mocked right now.
