Slapping Yan Lin's hand away, Dongfang Mian crossed her arms and said, "I'm not saying this to you, Lord, but at least you should lower your posture when you ask for help. You keep calling me 'Lord,' do you think I'm going to hire a dad to serve me? Look at my Aju, she knows how to act cute from time to time. What would you do if I took you back?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Lin lowered his head and remained silent, seemingly after a fierce internal struggle. He then looked up at Dongfang Mian earnestly and said, "I have nowhere to go. Take me back, okay?"
In the world of cultivation, strength is the only standard; appearance is always secondary. So when Dongfang Mian heard his words with that murderous look on his face, she simply turned away gracefully and threw him two words at him.
"Keep up".
"Ha, woman," a thought echoed in both Yan Lin's and A Ju's minds at the same time.
After bringing Yan Lin back to the Green Wood Beast Academy, the news that Dongfang Mian had brought back a disheveled and monstrous man in just a few days from her trip to the Beast-Seeking Mountain Range caused an uproar within the academy.
Everyone gathered around Dongfang Mian and Yan Lin, scrutinizing them.
"Junior sister, you're something else! This guy goes to the mountains to tame animals, and you go to the mountains to tame people!"
"This delicate-skinned girl, disheveled and with such poor clothes, what heinous thing did you do to her, junior sister?"
"Junior sister, quickly tell your senior brother the stories that happened in the Tianshan Mountains!"
"Dongfang, what you're doing is really indecent."
"Hey, Fifth Elder, you're mistaken. We cultivators don't concern ourselves with trivial matters. I support Dongfang."
Seeing Yan Lin's face growing darker and darker, Dongfang Mian was afraid that he would say something terrifying again, like that the Venerable One was going to kill people. She hurriedly pulled Dean Dong Ren out of the crowd and forcibly stopped everyone's discussion.
"Dean, I have successfully completed the beast taming mission. When can I receive the Beast Tamer's Badge?"
“Hey Dongfang, our mission is to tame beasts, you can’t just hand in a living person,” Dong Ren said with a troubled expression. “I can’t very well report this to the Beast Tamer Guild.”
"Dean, you've really gone too far," Dongfang Mian said speechlessly.
"Who said my tamed pet is him? Ah Ju, come out here right now!"
Just then, Aju, who had been perched on Dongfang Mian's shoulder but had been completely ignored by everyone, finally peeked out and sweetly meowed, "Meow~"
"What an adorable cat!"
Ah Ju's adorable expression and soft, sweet voice instantly made the hearts of these burly men in the Beast Academy flutter.
Aju, who was being forcibly patted on the head, scratched on the chin, and had its tail pulled, silently cursed in its heart, but still remembered the reminder on the road to Dongfang Mian that it should not reveal that it could talk.
"Hey, if these shameless bastards touch me again, this divine beast will unleash its power and show them what's what," Aju communicated with Dongfang Mian through a soul contract.
Dongfang Mian then snatched the utterly lifeless Aju from being touched and handed it to Dong Ren, saying, "Dean, this is the beast I tamed."
Dong Ren looked conflicted again and said, "Dongfang, isn't this just a cat? Actually, let me tell you, there's nothing wrong with wolf beasts, it's just that sometimes they smell a bit strong, but that's a minor thing."
Dongfang Mian quickly interrupted his long-winded explanation, saying, "Dean, this really is a demonic beast. You'll know once you try it."
Dong Ren reluctantly took out the monster testing stone for Aju to test. Aju placed her furry paw on it, and then a flash of light appeared.
