After Qin Xiao finished speaking, the hall fell silent.

No one objected. Since the other party had confirmed that they were being played, they would naturally have to pay the price.

Moreover, Qin Xiao's only request was to be a contracted beast, which was already quite lenient.

Unfortunately, Yunyue... no, it should be said that the special cloud beast, Qianyun.

Unfortunately, Qianyun didn't seem to appreciate it.

"The Yun clan means nothing to me. What makes you think I will submit?"

Qianyun's face was full of amusement and disdain.

Qin Xiao was amused and angry. "I don't think you'll give in, but you can't escape my grasp. I'll kill all the Yun clan members."

As for you, since I cannot form a contract with you, I will imprison you and make you live under my control for the rest of your life.

Qian Yun's expression changed. "What a joke! You really think you've got me cornered?"

Qin Xiao looked at the other person's slightly trembling hand and smiled.

"Oh, you think you can still have a go with me?"

The other person didn't speak, but stubbornly kept turning their head away.

"Forget it, I won't argue with you. Yun Yun, go and slaughter the Yun clan, then capture her and take her away later. That will put an end to her hopes."

Upon hearing Qin Xiao's words, Qian Yun finally couldn't hold back anymore.

"You! You cold-blooded, heartless bastard...you villain! You're a butcher!...you you you..."

Ha, that's it?

Qin Xiao looked disdainful; his attack power needed to be increased.

"Is there anything else you want to say? I'm ready to make my move once you've said that."

Qin Xiao said calmly.

He's not worried at all now. As long as he finds the real deal, everything will be fine.

As for their refusal, Qin Xiao wasn't worried at all. He could tell that the other party did indeed have feelings for the Yun clan.

Whether this was because the first humans they encountered were from the Yun clan, or because they felt a sense of belonging after staying with the Yun clan for a long time, is unknown.

If someone has a weakness, they're easy to manipulate; they just need some training.

Qian Yun stood up from her seat and pointed at Qin Xiao, "You...you can't touch the Yun clan!"

Qin Xiao crossed his legs. "I won't move, but they can't be so sure. Besides, what gives you the right to restrict my actions?"

Ilya, Yunyun, and the other girls kept serious faces and cooperated with Qin Xiao's performance.

They could tell that Qin Xiao was quite satisfied with the cloud beast and probably wanted to take it as his tamed beast.

Moreover, Qin Xiao has always been one to seek the rightful culprit and settle scores. He has already found the person responsible, and it was not Yun Shi who deliberately deceived him.

They wouldn't actually say they wanted to slaughter the Yun family for fun.

Qianyun broke down. Looking at the room full of beautiful and skilled women, her lips trembled, and she looked exactly like a girl being bullied by a bully.

"I...I'll kill you!"

As Qianyun spoke, she lunged at Qin Xiao.

Everyone was shocked. Ilya reacted the fastest. As Qin Xiao's personal bodyguard, she was always keeping an eye on Qin Xiao's safety.

She stepped forward, grabbed Qianyun by the collar, and slammed her to the ground.

Like Ilya, she is a high-ranking Platinum-level character, and frankly, she has no power to resist.

Qianyun herself was stunned by this, her slender, fair arms scratching unconsciously.

Ilya was also a little taken aback; this cloud beast was far too weak.

Qin Xiao stood up, walked up to the other person, and looked down at him.

"That's it? Shut up! I thought you were something special. Let me tell you, I'm going to eat you up!"

Qianyun pouted, and tears quickly welled up in her eyes.

"You bastard! I'm not good at fighting. If you've got the guts, let me go and we'll have a race-running contest!"

Qin Xiao was speechless. Had this girl made a mistake?

Moreover, Qin Xiao now seriously doubts whether this kid is really an adult? He's been playing the mortal world for hundreds of years and this is all he's got?

What's the difference between this and a minor girl?

It's both bad at cooking and loves to make noise.

"Stop talking nonsense. You're not going anywhere. Just follow me obediently, and I won't make things difficult for the Yun clan."

Qianyun turned her head away, looking aggrieved, and said nothing more.

Qin Xiao waved his hand, "Ilya and Yun Yun, you two keep an eye on her and don't let her get away. Pack your things and leave the secret realm first."

Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Fu Yunyan breathed a sigh of relief.

The situation appears to be under control at present.

After this commotion, the Yun clan's territory became truly lively again.

However, the Yun family in the imperial city remained completely silent throughout, and did not even send anyone to investigate.

After Qianyun identified Yunyue on the spot, Yunyue was also released.

Yunyue looked at Qianyun, who was wearing her face, with a resentful expression.

Qianyun couldn't stand the gaze either, so she turned her head away and transformed back into the form of a nightingale.

"Should I call you godmother or Nightingale?" Yunyue asked Qianyun with a stern face.

Qianyun stammered, unable to speak, "I..."

The next instant, Yun Yue hugged her, "No matter what, thank you... My Yun clan has wronged you..."

Qianyun was completely dumbfounded. "No... Yue'er, you did nothing wrong, it's all my fault, I was too weak..."

Yunyue could only weep, unable to respond, because she had unknowingly betrayed the other party.

Now that she knows the inside story, but Qin Xiao is here, what can she say?

Should we abandon the Yun clan?

Even if they were to abandon the Yun clan, Qin Xiao would not agree. In that case, people would die, and Qian Yun would still be captured.

Qin Xiao sat to the side, watching the two of them put on a tearful, melodramatic show, and curled his lip in disapproval.

"Alright, alright, it's not like we're going to die. Besides, a human and an immortal being are bound to be separated sooner or later."

"Become my tamed beast, follow me, and I can let you go home to visit occasionally. How about it, think it over?"

Qin Xiao didn't believe Yun Yue could live for hundreds of years. With her aptitude, she seemed destined to be less than a platinum-level talent.

After a long while, Qianyun seemed to have made up her mind.

She walked up to Qin Xiao and sniffed.

"You...you promise me one thing, and I'll go with you!"

Qin Xiao raised an eyebrow. "Tell me about it."

“I will leave with you, and I promise I will not run away, but you are not allowed to do anything to the Yun family again.”

As for whether I can willingly become your tamed beast, I can't guarantee that. You'll have to consider it yourself. Is it acceptable?

"That sounds pretty good," Qin Xiao thought to himself.

To put it bluntly, it's just a trial period; just don't use the Yun family name to threaten them again.

“Okay, as long as you come with me, I promise not to do anything to the Yun family, and regardless of whether you can become my tamed beast, I will keep this promise.”

Qin Xiao readily agreed.

Who cares, let's just fool them first.

Besides, he really didn't have any designs on the Yun family; he was just using them to threaten her.

Now that the other party has taken a step back, he should take a step back too.

From now on, I'll most likely be using my own beasts. I was just angry before, but now that I think about it...

It's better not to make it too ugly.
