Smoke filled the air, and after a great battle, the vast square had turned into ruins. Sun Zhe stood atop this wreckage, a gentle breeze blowing through, causing his white robe to flutter in the wind. The faint purple radiance that had yet to dissipate surrounded him, emanating an unmatched powerful aura.
Standing several dozen yards away from the square, watching the cold figure of the White-Clad Youth amidst the ruins, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Those who had previously crossed paths with Sun Zhe could not help but take a few steps back, as if creating distance could lessen the pressure they felt inside.
The previous battle was too shocking; even the peak Elder of the Beast Taming Sect at the initial stage of Thunder Lord was no match for Sun Zhe. It was undeniable that Zhou Qi had also perished at Sun Zhe's hands. Coupled with the Five Element Corpse, which was comparable to a Mid-Level Thunder Lord, Sun Zhe had managed to defeat three powerful figures from the Realm of the Thunder Lord in such a short time. What incredible combat strength that was!
"How is this possible... He is so young..."
Someone in the crowd exclaimed this sentiment, which echoed the thoughts of everyone present. Particularly, Elder Dong from the Xuan Lei Sect, who had previously forcefully demanded an Ethereal Ring from Sun Zhe, was now so frightened that his eyelids twitched violently. A sense of dread filled his heart as he couldn't fathom why he had been foolish enough to provoke this calamity.
"Forget it; it is now considered a wild beast without a master. If you keep tormenting it, it will die."
Looking at Jingjing, who was still venting its anger, a smile appeared in Sun Zhe's eyes. He understood that this creature had been cooped up in space for so long and probably harbored quite a bit of resentment. Glancing at the Four-Cornered Monster on the ground, Sun Zhe spoke softly.
Upon hearing Sun Zhe's voice, Jingjing immediately lifted its head and realized that Sun Zhe had finished fighting. The Four-Cornered Monster wrapped in his Purple Divine Radiance was already on the verge of collapse, especially its four prominent sharp corners on top of its head, which were nearly worn down by half.
In truth, it wasn't that this beast was weak; it was called the Four-Lifed Savage Beast. Legend has it that each corner on its head represented one life, giving it three more lives than ordinary beasts and earning it the title of an immortal beast. Its combat power was also among the best of its kind, with extremely strong defenses. Although it wasn't an Exotic Beast, its miraculous abilities and strength were certainly not inferior to most Exotic Beasts; otherwise, it wouldn't have caught the eye of the Elder of the Beast Taming Sect. Unfortunately for it, it encountered Jingjing instead and never got a chance to use any Divine Abilities before being trapped and tormented until now.
Hearing Sun Zhe's words and seeing that the Four-Lifed Savage Beast was barely breathing, Jingjing seemed to realize that its actions were somewhat pointless and immediately released its Divine Radiance that had been restraining it. In a flash, it flew directly towards Sun Zhe.
However, this time it didn't land on Sun Zhe's shoulder but instead perched itself on his head, gripping his hair tightly with its claws while venting its frustrations and making noise.
Hearing what Jingjing was saying, Sun Zhe couldn't help but smile wryly. This creature was actually scolding him for not giving it wine to drink for so long and accusing him of child abuse... What kind of nonsense was this? Sun Zhe rolled his eyes helplessly and grabbed Jingjing down from his head, placing it on his shoulder.
"Sister Shen, come here for a moment..." Sun Zhe smiled slightly and called out to Shen Yan.
Shen Yan paused for a moment, unsure of what Sun Zhe was doing, but she didn't hesitate and gracefully moved forward until she stood before him.
"Do you have a familiar beast now?"
"I... I can't take it. This is your trophy, and besides, you need it more than I do."
Shen Yan was momentarily taken aback, but she quickly understood Sun Zhe's intentions. She immediately shook her delicate hands and her head in refusal. The Four-Lifed Savage Beast was an extremely famous demon beast, and it had already advanced to the fourth tier, its strength definitely comparable to that of an average Cultivator in the Realm of the Thunder Lord. How could she accept such a significant gift from Sun Zhe?
Looking at this kind and gentle junior sister, a smile crept onto Sun Zhe's lips as he explained, "Every Cultivator can only have one contracted demon beast, which you may not know. Besides, I already have this fellow; if I were to take another demon beast, it wouldn't agree anyway. I don't have anything else to give you, so consider this Four-Lifed Savage Beast as a gift from your senior brother."
At this moment, the crystal perched on Sun Zhe's shoulder nodded vigorously as if to express its agreement with Sun Zhe's viewpoint. Its serious yet adorable demeanor made Shen Yan stifle a laugh.
"But..." Shen Yan glanced at the Four-Lifed Savage Beast lying on the ground, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes.
"Don't worry."
Sun Zhe immediately understood Shen Yan's concerns and walked up to the Four-Lifed Savage Beast. He spoke calmly to it, "I know you can understand my words and that you're not unconscious yet. Now I give you a choice: either follow your previous master into hell or become my junior sister's contracted demon beast. You have ten breaths to decide."
Sun Zhe offered no room for negotiation with the Four-Lifed Savage Beast; there were only two options—submit or die.
Upon hearing Sun Zhe's words, the previously motionless Four-Lifed Savage Beast stood up immediately. Sun Zhe was correct; this beast was renowned for its four lives technique, and its vitality could not be so fragile. It had merely been pretending. Looking at Sun Zhe's expressionless face and then at Shen Yan standing beside him, a glimmer of disdain flashed in its eyes.
If it were to become Sun Zhe's contracted demon beast, it might consider it; after all, demon beasts revered strength. Although Sun Zhe had killed its former master, his power had also conquered it. However, in its eyes, Shen Yan was merely a human at the early stage of Thunder Sovereign and not worthy of its allegiance.
Demon beasts were generally proud creatures; they looked down on humans unless they were strong enough to defeat them. To them, humans were nothing but lowly and weak beings, making a Fated Contract impossible. This was precisely what Shen Yan feared—that the Four-Lifed Savage Beast would look down on her.
As ten breaths passed gradually, the coldness in Sun Zhe's eyes intensified. He did not expect that the Four-Lifed Savage Beast would rather die than sign a Fated Contract with Shen Yan. Just then, the impatient crystal flew up and unleashed a brilliant Divine Radiance that struck the Four-Lifed Savage Beast directly.
A crisp sound echoed along the beast's spine as a crimson scar suddenly appeared.
A mournful cry echoed as four hooves thundered away. The once unyielding Four-Lifed Savage Beast unexpectedly ran behind Shen Yan, trembling violently, its large body shaking with palpable fear in its eyes, as if Jingjing were an incredibly ferocious demon.
"Uh... Sister Shen, since it came to you voluntarily, you shouldn't hold back."
Looking helplessly at the arrogant creature, Sun Zhe couldn't help but show a hint of admiration. At least Jingjing's Divine Radiance was far more effective than his words; the once fearless Four-Lifed Savage Beast had actually submitted under Jingjing's intimidation. This creature indeed possessed some remarkable abilities.
Although Shen Yan appeared somewhat dazed, she understood that this opportunity was rare and precious. She gently bit her fingertip, drawing a drop of crimson blood, which she pressed onto the forehead of the Four-Lifed Savage Beast while murmuring a few incantations. Instantly, mysterious patterns spread across the beast's forehead, and a faint mist of blood enveloped both the human and the beast, an enigmatic aura rising in the square.
Witnessing this scene, everyone present couldn't help but show a hint of envy. A fourth-tier Four-Lifed Savage Beast was no less formidable than a Thunder Lord expert; possessing such a familiar beast would mean they could almost disregard any Thunder Lord Stage strongman.
Yet such a powerful ally was casually given to Shen Yan by Sun Zhe. However, upon seeing Jingjing perched on Sun Zhe's shoulder, everyone felt relieved. Although they couldn't discern what kind of beast Jingjing was, it was clear from how effortlessly it had toyed with the Four-Lifed Savage Beast that it was undoubtedly a creature as formidable as the Four-Lifed Savage Beast itself.
A perverse person and a perverse beast—this was everyone's thought.
