Chapter 267, Pet Training Mode

The Beast Tide retreated.

Without doubt, this was Qin Yichen’s achievement.

No one knew exactly how he had managed it, but the third defensive line had held, which meant that the Northern Region would not fall.

Whether it was Yang Quan or the Patriarchs of the Seven Millennial Families, they all breathed sighs of relief.

After everyone held their position for another day and confirmed the Beast Tide had retreated past the first defensive line, they finally relaxed their vigilance.

The task of repairing the defensive lines was left to the Seven Millennial Families. Yang Quan took the lead in rushing back to Central Province City. He was eager to know exactly what had happened. After all, the Sky Reaching Behemoth’s existence was still a huge potential threat.

What Yang Quan had never imagined was that this huge threat was currently in deep trouble…

Once again, Qin Yichen witnessed the terrifying nature of Little Ling’er’s special ability.

Even the Sky Reaching Behemoth could not avoid it – it seemed naturally reverent toward Little Ling’er.

At first, this Beast King from the Black Demon Mountain Range was quite defiant – when told to go east, it would deliberately go west. Then, the ‘Hell training’ began…

“Left, right…” Little Ling’er sat atop the miniaturized Sky Reaching Behemoth. If its movements were even slightly slow, Little Ling’er would mercilessly give it a knock on the head, giving no face to this Beast King.

It was… humiliating…

Xiao Bai sat to the side, looking at it with complete sympathy.

Back then, it had gone through the same thing…

“That’s really the Beast King? That’s really the Sky Reaching Behemoth?”

Zhao Ritian and Ye Liangchen looked at Qin Yichen in disbelief, clearly finding it hard to connect that little thing with the Sky Reaching Behemoth.

Qin Yichen rolled his eyes. [Believe what you will.]

His gaze toward Little Ling’er was also somewhat complex.

Little Ling’er’s existence was difficult to explain even with his knowledge. She had an innate ability to control Demonic Beasts, from the lowest ant to the Beast King. All prostrated at her feet, obeying her commands without question.

Qin Yichen could not help thinking of that ghostly beast he had seen in the ancient ruin. And that terrifying energy accumulated over who knows how many millions of years.

He could hardly imagine what terrifying things would happen if Little Ling’er released that energy.

This was likely why even the Sky Reaching Behemoth submitted to her.

But now, Qin Yichen could confirm that Xiao Bai was indeed born from the Black Qilin’s head. He could tell from the Sky Reaching Behemoth’s eyes.

The two beasts had similarities and differences.

They shared the same aura.

It was just that Xiao Bai was clearly more focused on the Soul and intelligence, with its attacks carrying Spiritual Energy.

The Sky Reaching Behemoth was thick-skinned and immensely strong, but as for intelligence… best to not speak about it.

Last time, though Xiao Bai had resisted, it quickly submitted to Little Ling’er. But the Sky Reaching Behemoth would immediately become unruly whenever Little Ling’er got off its back, leading to much suffering.

In Little Ling’er’s words… ‘If this little girl gets angry, the consequences will be serious!’

This led to its current state – one small beating every step, one big beating every three steps. Watching from the side, the Beast King was quite pitiful.

Even Ye Liangchen doubted it was the Beast King.

When Yang Quan returned to Central Province City, he also witnessed this scene.

If he could not sense the terrifying aura faintly emanating from the Sky Reaching Behemoth, he would never have believed this was the Beast King that terrorized the entire Thousand Mist Empire!

“The whole Family is full of monsters…” Yang Quan could not help sighing, his inner shock beyond comparison.

Who would believe this if told?!

However, it seemed like there would probably be no more Ten Thousand Beast Tides in the future?

Thinking of this, Yang Quan became quite excited.

Yang Quan did not stay for long though, leaving quickly.

Other Forces from the Thousand Mist Empire were heading this way, and he needed to notify them. Of course, regarding the Sky Reaching Behemoth, he naturally would not say much.

Even if he told them, they would not believe him, and take him for a fool.

How could he make others believe a little girl of just a few years old had tamed the Sky Reaching Behemoth?

[Isn’t it now a pet?] Thinking of this, Yang Quan’s mouth twitched violently.

Qin Yichen finally felt at ease.

Now, with the Sky Reaching Behemoth’s protection, he no longer needed to worry about his loved ones’ safety.

There were some things he could now do without worry.

Originally, Qin Yichen could have left the Thousand Mist Empire after the Alchemy World Summit, but he simply could not leave behind his loved ones.

In this life, he had too many attachments to be as free as in his previous life.

…

News of Qin Yichen stopping the Beast Tide quickly spread throughout the Thousand Mist Empire.

If before Qin Yichen was just a brilliant prodigy, now he was the hero of the entire Northern Region.

The higher Qin Yichen’s prestige grew, the more anxious the An Family became. These days, the An Family has almost completely disappeared. All their shops were closed, and the An Family gates remained shut.

As news about Qin Yichen kept coming from outside, with porcelain and decorations in the An Family’s main hall suffering the consequences.

The An Family Patriarch, An Cangye, had a face that was dark as soot as he paced about the main hall. Around him were the An Family’s core members. They were all pale.

Who could have predicted that a youth from such a small kingdom could gain the power to overthrow the An Family in such a short amount of time?

“If we had known…” An Cangye was full of regret.

Back then, if the An Family had been willing to pay some price, eliminating Qin Yichen would have been as easy as turning over one’s palm. Even now, An Cangye did not know how An Ranyun, who was sent to kill Qin Yichen outside Central Province City, had died.

“Patriarch!” In this bleak atmosphere, a hurried figure suddenly rushed in from outside.

“How was it? How did the Li Family respond?”

An Cangye steadied him and urgently asked.

This figure was the Elder the An Family had sent to contact the Li Family.

After a while, the person caught his breath and happily said, “It worked!”

Actually, he knew clearly that the reason the Li Family paid attention to him was not because of that token – the token only allowed him to meet a Li Family Elder.

It was when he mentioned the Compound Pill that the previously indifferent Li Family Elder became interested and personally came to the Northern Region with him.

“Quickly, go welcome him!”

An Cangye and the rest of the An Family immediately became excited, going out together to welcome the Li Family Elder as if welcoming their Father.

“Where is the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce? Take me there!” The Li Family Elder did not even glance at An Cangye, directly ordering him like a servant.

“Please follow me, sir!” An Cangye bowed and scraped like a lackey, leading the way.

This was the second time the An Family experts headed to the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce. However, this time, they were full of confidence.

No matter how talented Qin Yichen was, he was still limited to the Thousand Mist Empire.
