He was telling the truth. The rarest cultivators on the Holy Court Continent possessing sword pets, even within the Holy Court, were due to the sheer difficulty of taming them. Even though Sang Qinghe, Zhuang Ping'an, and the others had reached the level of Grand Swordsman, taming a beast equivalent to a fifth-level Swordsman was still difficult in the Longyan Mountains. If one ventured too far into the mountains, their lives could be in jeopardy. Taming this Scarlet Flame Spirit Fox was a significant achievement.
"This Scarlet Flame Fire Fox is a bit underpowered, and it will affect your progress in cultivation. It would be fine if it were normal, but with a few more years, its strength could be raised. Having a sword pet would also greatly increase your combat power, so it's not a disadvantage at all.
But don't forget, we'll be heading to Beiyuan Mist Plain in a few months. Every bit of strength we gain increases our chances of survival. It's not worth wasting precious time on it." Although she understood their feelings and didn't want to discourage them, Mu Hanyan still spoke the truth.
"Then what should we do?" Zhuang Ping'an and Sang Qinghe asked in unison, both somewhat frustrated. They knew exactly what Mu Hanyan was talking about; they hadn't taken action against so many other beasts before because of this very reason. But after finally encountering a "powerful" beast, they felt reluctant to just give up.
"Let it go first, and we will continue to look for exotic beasts with similar strength to you." Mu Hanyan said.
Although they felt a little unwilling, Zhuang Ping'an and the others were already accustomed to obeying Mu Hanyan's orders. Upon hearing this, they took a few steps back, completely retracted their hand gestures, and let the red-flame fire fox leave.
"Alas, it's a beast comparable to a fifth-level swordsman after all. It's a shame to let it go like this."
"Yes, even if we meet a stronger one, we may not be able to tame it." The other two great swordsmen couldn't help but say.
Although they obeyed Mu Hanyan's words, they had not been together for long after all. It was unlikely to expect them to trust Mu Hanyan as much as Hua Yue and others, so they let the Red Flame Fire Spirit Fox go, and they still had some resentment in their hearts.
"Don't worry, as long as his strength is not much greater than yours, that is, as long as he does not reach the level of a sword master, I can help you tame him." Mu Hanyan was not angry, and said with a slight smile.
Anyone would feel disappointed if the cooked duck flew away. If she didn't have a contract with the Aolai divine beast, she wouldn't feel any better when encountering such a thing.
"Then I'll have to trouble Mr. Mu... What, what did you just say?" Zhuang Ping'an bowed habitually, but before he could finish his words, he opened his mouth and looked at Mu Hanyan in surprise.
The others were all shocked as well. They had seen Mu Hanyan's formation and alchemy skills, and from the explosion of the Yunlong Jiutian Furnace at a critical moment that day, they also guessed that she had extraordinary attainments in alchemy. However, no one had thought that she was also proficient in beast taming.
After all, her age is there. She is ten years younger than Zhuang Ping'an and others. Even if she practices without eating, drinking or sleeping every day, it is impossible for her to be proficient in so many strange and unusual skills at the same time. What's more, she has the strength of a great swordsman, and her actual combat power is not even weaker than that of a sword saint.
How is this possible? Could it be that she has become so accustomed to everything going smoothly lately that she speaks without even thinking?
"Hua Yue, Zirong." Mu Hanyan was too lazy to explain and gestured to Hua Yue and the others.
There was a flash of phantom light, and an iron-backed saber-toothed tiger, two dragon-scaled fire-patterned rhinos, and an earth-violent bear appeared beside Huayue, Zirong, Jiang Yuzhe, and Tang Bufan respectively.
"So you all already have sword pets." Looking at the sword pets of several people, Zhuang Ping'an smiled bitterly.
It's no wonder that Mu Hanyan looked down on the Red Flame Fire Spirit Fox. Look at the others, they are what you call sword pets. The weakest Earth Storm Bear is comparable to an eighth-level swordsman. Once it falls into a frenzy, its innate brute force is far more than that. The other Iron-backed Sabre-toothed Tigers and Dragon-scaled Fire Rhinos are comparable to ninth-level swordsmen, one level stronger than the Earth Storm Bear. It would be strange if she looked down on the Red Flame Fire Spirit Fox.
Fortunately, I didn’t rush to tame the red-flame fire fox, otherwise it would be so embarrassing.
"Han Yan helped us tame it." Hua Yue said with a smile.
In fact, even if he didn't say it, Zhuang Ping'an and others could guess what was going on. After spending some time with Hua Yue and the others, everyone knew that although Mu Hanyan and his companions were talented, like Mu Hanyan, their true combat power far exceeded their cultivation level, when it came to strange and unusual skills, they did not have a very high talent.
If one of them had been lucky enough to tame a sword pet, it would be understandable, but four people and four sword pets, all so powerful, was definitely not something that could be explained by luck. Obviously, someone had helped them tame their sword pets, and other than Mu Hanyan, they couldn't think of anyone else.
It turned out that Mu Hanyan's words were not just nonsense, but she really had the ability.
"Young Master Mu, I'm sorry to trouble you again this time." Zhuang Ping'an didn't have any doubt about Mu Hanyan's words at all. He said sincerely, with little stars twinkling in his eyes.
Mu Hanyan smiled and nodded without saying anything else.
"By the way, Young Master Mu, what's your sword pet? Let's see it," Sang Qinghe said excitedly. Since Mu Hanyan could help Hua Yue and the others tame sword pets, it made no sense for him not to have one himself.
The others also looked at Mu Hanyan. The sword pets of Hua Yue and others opened their eyes. They were all full of expectations for Miss Mu's sword pet.
"Well... you will know later. By the way, let's go look for exotic beasts first. If we can't find an exotic beast that matches your strength, it will be useless even if my beast-taming skills are strong." Mu Hanyan's smile froze, cold sweat dripped from the back of her head, and she looked around and talked nonsense.
