This is embarrassing, truly humiliating. After all, he's one of the four legendary beasts. I can tolerate your vegetarianism, and I can tolerate the Aolai beast's cowardice, but how can I tolerate this kind of humiliation? He's so servile, lacking even the slightest dignity of a divine beast. It's a disgrace to him.
"..." Mu Hanyan now felt more than just sympathy for Xia Youchen; she felt deep pity for him. If she were to encounter such a "divine beast", she would probably be speechless and shed tears.
But there was no way. She had not yet integrated the memory of the Aolai divine beast, so no matter how much she sympathized with Xia Youchen, she could not help him.
"What kind of beast are you, little piglet?" Xia Youchen's mind finally returned to normal, and he asked. Looking at Mu Hanyan's piglet-like beast, he suddenly realized that this beast was definitely not an ordinary beast, otherwise how could it make his Qiongqi so flattering.
"You, do you still remember that egg?" Mu Hanyan said with a complicated expression. She really didn't want to hurt the old man's fragile heart any more, but since he asked her, she had to answer honestly. She had to be an honest and good child. "It's the egg that hit you half to death."
Xia Youchen's complex expression at this moment made everyone feel distressed. Zirong and the others looked at Mu Hanyan and rolled their eyes inwardly. This young master was really an expert at finishing off the enemy, not afraid of making the old man cry.
At this moment, Xia Youchen no longer wanted to know what kind of mythical beast this little piglet was. He felt the world had turned gray, with a cold wind howling and fallen leaves covering the ground, a desolate scene.
"Forget it, forget it. It's just my bad luck. I'll take my leave now. I will repay you for saving me today in the future...well, if I still have the ability." Xia Youchen walked out dejectedly.
Qiongqi bowed to the little auspicious beast, howling. Then the little auspicious beast waved its little claws impatiently, as if shooing away a fly.
Although this half piece of beast soul relic is enough to satisfy Qiongqi's growth needs for several years and he only needs ordinary food on weekdays, who knows how much more bad luck is waiting for him when he encounters this guy. Therefore, the once extraordinary beast-taming swordsman has been tossed around and started to doubt his life.
Looking at Xia Youchen's desolate back as he walked away step by step, Mu Hanyan and others felt extremely sad.
"Wait." Mu Hanyan suddenly spoke.
"What?" Xia Youchen turned around numbly with a look of despair on his face.
"This is for you. Give it to Xiao Qiongqi later." Mu Hanyan took out a beast soul relic and threw it to Xia Youchen.
At this moment, Xia Youchen pounced like a hungry tiger and caught the beast soul relic. He looked hopeless just now, but now he was crying.
"You, are you really going to give it to me?" Xia Youchen's voice trembled.
Mu Hanyan felt a little complicated. Thinking back to the past, Xia Youchen was also a powerful figure, but now he was so excited about a beast soul relic.
"Give it to Qiongqi." Mu Hanyan sighed.
"I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future." Xia Youchen walked away happily holding the beast soul relic, and Qiongqi followed him and went away, howling.
"Let's go too." Mu Hanyan put away the remaining beast soul relics and prepared to leave with Hua Yue and others.
After the little auspicious beast had eaten and drunk its fill, it returned to its piggy behavior. It grabbed Mu Hanyan's trouser leg and lazily climbed upwards. Its slow movements made everyone anxious. As expected, except for grabbing food, this guy would never move quickly.
Mu Hanyan couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she simply picked it up by the neck and threw it into her pocket.
The group left the ancient ruins. To be precise, this was actually the place where the divine beast Aolai was reborn. It was also the palace it built because it missed its master.
Walking through the magnificent palace again, looking at the lonely throne and the majestic and solemn guards on both sides, Mu Hanyan felt a mysterious pressure and actually developed a strong sense of awe. Her expression involuntarily became much more serious.
Behind him, Hua Yue and the others were even more unbearable. Under the pressure, they even felt like paying homage, and their expressions became inexplicably frightened.
Strange, why didn't I have this feeling when I came in just now? Could it be because I know the origin of the Aolai beast and this palace? Mu Hanyan and others secretly speculated.
After walking out of the palace, they finally felt much more relaxed and let out a long breath.
Ye Lanxuan cast a hand seal, creating a barrier once again, concealing the palace within Feilai Peak. Although nothing of value remained inside, this was a fact known only to Mu Hanyan and the others, unknown to outsiders. If anyone knew that an ancient palace dating back hundreds of thousands of years was hidden here, who knew how much trouble it would cause.
Birds die for food and people die for money. This is an eternal truth.
It was obvious that Ye Lanxuan had consumed too much energy in sealing the space cracks before, and had not yet fully recovered. He performed the hand seals very slowly, and his face was extremely solemn. Soon, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
Mu Hanyan could still break the seal with a flash of inspiration, but she had no idea how to create the barrier. Seeing his exhausted look, she felt distressed and couldn't help but take out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead. Ye Lanxun gave Mu Hanyan a tender smile in return.
Hua Yue and the others glanced at each other quietly, then turned their heads away simultaneously, pretending not to have seen anything. They only sighed with regret in their hearts: "Ah, how wonderful it would be if the young master was a woman."
After a while, the mountain wall returned to its original state, and even Mu Hanyan could not sense any breath of the sealing barrier.
As soon as she saw Ye Lanxun stop, Mu Hanyan quickly put away her handkerchief, took out the pill and handed it over.
Ye Lanxuan did not refuse. He took the pill and regulated his breathing for a while, and his complexion gradually returned to its rosy color.
"By the way, Brother Ye, once the space crack is sealed, the power of heaven and earth of the Continent of Gods will no longer exist. Wouldn't the area within a thousand miles around Feilai Peak become a wasteland again?" Zirong asked regretfully.
After all, this is their young master's property, and they certainly don't want it to become the barren and desolate place it used to be.
"Don't worry about that. With my strength, I can't completely seal the crack, and it will still release a trace of the power of heaven and earth from the Divine Continent." Ye Lanxuan said with a relaxed smile.
"But, without the suppression of the Aolai divine beast, there won't be any hidden dangers, right?" After hearing Ye Lanxuan's words, Hua Yue and others showed worried expressions.
No one knows better than them how terrifying the power generated when the two forces of heaven and earth collide is, so it is natural to have such concerns.
