What else could Huang Ling'er say?
Huang Ling'er glanced at Ye Feng beside her and nodded obediently.
Huang Ling'er had no power to resist Ye Feng. No matter what tricks she used, it was useless in front of Ye Feng. She could only choose to obey orders.
Moreover, there's nothing wrong with being a demon beast who is a disciple of the Taiyin Sect Master.
After all, the Taiyin Sect is one of the six top sects in the Yin-Yang Great World, and Mu Yuqing, as the sect leader's disciple, has a high probability of inheriting the position of sect leader in the future.
Even if she doesn't become the sect leader of the Taiyin Sect in the end, her status within the Taiyin Sect won't be too bad.
So no matter how you look at it, she won't lose out by being Mu Yuqing's spirit beast; on the contrary, she'll benefit a lot.
“Let’s begin. I’ll protect you,” Night Wind said.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Senior Brother."
After Mu Yuqing finished speaking, she focused her mind and calmed her spirit, circulating her true energy to form a series of hand seals.
As each hand gesture landed on Huang Ling'er's forehead, her eyes gradually lost focus and her gaze became unfocused.
Mu Yuqing's expression grew increasingly serious.
Generally speaking, there are conditions and restrictions when a martial artist subdues a demonic beast and signs a master-servant contract to make the beast recognize him as its master and become his spirit beast.
The first rule is that a martial artist's realm must be higher than that of a demon beast.
The second rule is that the lower the bloodline of the demon beast, the greater the chance of success; the higher the bloodline of the demon beast, the smaller the chance of success.
The third rule is that monsters should not have any thoughts of resistance.
Currently, Mu Yuqing is at the Divine Travel Realm, while Huang Ling'er is an eighth-grade demon beast.
Mu Yuqing's cultivation level is not above Huang Ling'er's; they are merely equal.
The bloodline of Huang Ling'er, this demon beast, is still unclear.
Then the last point is crucial.
If Huang Ling'er resists, Mu Yuqing will most likely fail. And if the master-servant contract fails, Mu Yuqing will suffer a backlash and her soul will be damaged.
At this critical moment, Mu Yuqing had reached a crucial juncture.
As Mu Yuqing performed all the hand seals, a bond formed by condensed true energy appeared between her and Huang Ling'er's foreheads.
However, this bond is very fragile, like a thin spider silk, and it is teetering on the brink of collapse, as if it could break at any moment.
It was at this moment that Huang Ling'er's body began to tremble.
This guy actually tried to fight back!
However, Ye Feng was not angry, because he could see that Huang Ling'er was not resisting on purpose, but rather it was an instinctive reaction.
No intelligent or thinking being wants to be enslaved.
This is a biological instinct, an instinct to yearn for freedom.
So now, Huang Ling'er is subconsciously resisting Mu Yuqing!
The fragile bond between them is on the verge of breaking!
But just then, Ye Feng suddenly reached out and pressed his hand down on Huang Ling'er's head.
Huang Ling'er's subconscious resistance vanished without a trace, and the trembling bond stabilized.
Half an hour later, Huang Ling'er's eyes finally regained their clarity, and a faint mark appeared on her forehead.
This mark is proof of recognition of God.
From then on, Huang Ling'er became Mu Yuqing's spirit beast. She could not disobey Mu Yuqing's orders, otherwise she would feel great pain.
Mu Yuqing could even decide Huang Ling'er's life or death with a single thought!
"We finally succeeded, senior brother. Thank you for your help."
Mu Yuqing said with a smile, and cupped her hands in a gesture of respect to Ye Feng.
Night Breeze said calmly, "It's not entirely my achievement. Your foundation is very solid, which is the key reason why you were able to successfully sign the master-servant contract with Huang Ling'er."
"Senior brother, please don't praise me. I know you're not telling the truth," Mu Yuqing said with a smile.
Ye Feng turned to Huang Ling'er and said, "You have already signed a contract with my junior sister, and you will be her spirit beast from now on. I will not attack you again, so you can rest assured."
Hearing Ye Feng say that, Huang Ling'er finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Huang Ling'er was genuinely afraid of Ye Feng; she felt utterly powerless in his presence.
From the Jade God Temple to her capture, she was completely manipulated by Ye Feng, without any chance to resist.
The oppressive feeling brought to her by the night wind was almost enough to leave her with psychological trauma.
Now that everyone is on her side, Huang Ling'er finally feels a little safe and no longer feels like her life is in danger at any moment.
"Now I have some questions for you, Huang Ling'er. How did you become a demon beast? And how did you gain intelligence and become able to speak human language?" Ye Feng asked.
Huang Ling'er is not a tenth-grade demon beast, nor is she one of the three extremely special demon beasts: the raccoon, the fox, or the dragon.
So it's really strange that Huang Ling'er, despite being an eighth-grade demon beast, can speak human language and is incredibly intelligent.
Mu Yuqing had wanted to ask this question for a long time, so she stared at Huang Ling'er with her beautiful eyes, waiting for her to give the answer.
"I don't know what happened either."
"I only remember that I was confused and ate a spiritual herb in the Jade Mountain, and then I suddenly had an epiphany."
"Soon afterward I was able to speak human language, and I also learned to recognize and write characters. I also naturally comprehended the methods of cultivation. Then I began to cultivate, and it took me more than two hundred years to finally reach the eighth rank."
Huang Ling'er gave a vague answer.
Ye Feng had been observing Huang Ling'er's changing expressions, so he could tell that Huang Ling'er was not lying.
What she said is true.
"Could it be the Spirit Awakening Grass?" Night Wind muttered to himself.
Mu Yuqing asked curiously, "Senior brother, what is the Spirit Awakening Grass?"
"The Spirit Awakening Grass is a very special herb that can awaken the spirit in humans, and of course, it can also awaken the spirit in demonic beasts."
"After taking Qiling Grass, one will suddenly become intelligent, so Qiling Grass is a very precious herb."
"I've only ever seen the Spirit Awakening Grass in ancient books; I've never actually seen it in person."
The night breeze's explanation amazed Mu Yuqing.
"You're so lucky! You stumbled upon a Spirit Awakening Grass by sheer chance. You're so fortunate!"
Mu Yuqing hugged Huang Ling'er tightly and said with a grin.
Moreover, Mu Yuqing kept touching Huang Ling'er's body and teasing her.
Huang Ling'er shouted, "Let me go! I'm not interested in you at all! My orientation is normal!"
Mu Yuqing's face immediately showed embarrassment.
She remembered the thousands of obscene books stored in Huang Ling'er's cave.
This seemingly cute and innocent guy is actually a pervert.
Thinking about this, Mu Yuqing couldn't help but feel conflicted. She even wondered if it was a wise decision for her to sign a master-servant contract with Huang Ling'er and take her as her spirit beast.
Ye Feng had no idea what Mu Yuqing was thinking, since he hadn't paid any attention to the books in Huang Ling'er's cave.
