Chapter 77

This is my way of taming beasts!

"Hey, you brown-haired girl over there, come here."

Following the direction Long Xi pointed, everyone's eyes fell on the gentle young woman with a flaxen-colored one-shoulder ponytail and a wifely air. Then, they all took a step back in unison, tacitly betraying Su Wanrou.

"Eh?"

Su Wanrou's mouth opened slightly when she was suddenly poked, and then her pupils dilated in shock.

Why her?!

Can anyone tell her what gods and demons are?!

Su Wanrou was numb. Being called out by Long Xi at this moment, even a fool could tell it wasn't a good thing.

The child instinctively looked to others for help.

However, all the students around her lowered their heads, and almost no one dared to meet her gaze.

The only two who didn't avoid her gaze, Cui Yelan and Luo Yan, only gave her a look of "good luck" and "I can't help you."

Xue Youyou, Meng Yanqing, and Lu Yutang were not present and had no idea where they were.

Su Wanrou was in despair.

At this moment, she was pitiful, weak, and helpless.

Someone please save her!

Seeing Su Wanrou hesitate, Long Xi raised an eyebrow and emphasized in a stern tone, "Don't make me say it a second time."

The threat was palpable.

Forced by Long Xi's tyranny, Su Wanrou had no choice but to obediently walk over to Long Xi, no matter how unwilling she was.

The next second, Long Xi reached out his hand.

Long Xi displayed superhuman strength that belied his size, lifting Su Wanrou off the ground with one hand and over his head as if she were a chick.

Then she walked to the front of the airship and shouted in a booming voice, "Xue Youyou, if you don't want to see your good teammate thrown off from here, get out here right now!"

Is this mysterious ultimate beast tamer here to find Xue Youyou?!

Upon hearing this, the people of Lanzhi Courtyard were slightly taken aback, and then quickly looked at each other, only to find that Xue Youyou was not present. They immediately began to whisper among themselves.

"What's the situation with the chief?"

"I think they saw the situation was bad and deserted their post?"

"You know what, it's actually quite possible. Meng Yanqing isn't here either. Doesn't she have a Void-type pet? Maybe the two of them have already escaped together."

"Tsk tsk, as expected of the chief, his reaction is so fast, even his escape is one step ahead of others."

"The Ultimate Beastmaster went looking for her, but she ran away. What if the Ultimate Beastmaster gets angry later? Wouldn't that get us killed?"

"..."

The more they thought about it, the more something seemed wrong; it seemed they had all been tricked by Xue Youyou.

Liu Qingchan, who possessed the flying pet Twilight Cicada, secretly regretted her decision after figuring it out. Why had she been so foolish as to come out? She could have easily escaped and hadn't had to get involved with these unlucky fellows.

As for Su Wanrou, who was being held in the air by Long Xi, she was inwardly cursing her bad luck: Cui Yelan and Luo Yan are both Xue Youyou's teammates, so why is she the only one targeted? Is this right?

At this moment, in the corridor inside the airship.

Xue Youyou was held back by Meng Yanqing and Lu Yutang.

"Calm down, Youyou. As long as we're alive, we can always rebuild!"

"Your opponent is a veteran Ultimate Beast Tamer. You need to understand that the difference between Perfect and Ultimate levels is like an insurmountable chasm. No matter how strong the Yuki-onna is, she couldn't possibly defeat an Ultimate-level beast in her Perfect form!"

"You must survive first before you have a chance to avenge Su Wanrou!"

Meng Yanqing anxiously tried to dissuade Xue Youyou, who was in agitation.

Although Nie Yue Jue Xian You, as an ultimate-level creature, is strong, it is not a Void-type pet beast after all. Therefore, it cannot prevent Meng Yan Qing from escaping using the Void-type Xuanjia Heart-Protecting Lotus Escape by entering or imprisoning the void.

Only Void-type pets and Beastmasters who have contracted with Void-type pets can survive in the Void environment. In addition, there are beings with special constitutions like Xue Youyou.

Simply put, with the Xuanjia Heart-Protecting Lotus, Xue Youyou and Meng Yanqing can run away whenever they want.

Although Lu Yutang couldn't run with them, she still tried her best to help Meng Yanqing persuade them: "Yanqing is right, Youyou, now is not the time to act rashly. Only by surviving will you have a chance to avenge everyone!"

The two men each grabbed one of Xue Youyou's long, white legs, holding her back tightly and preventing her from taking another step forward.

Xue Youyou was extremely worried.

She was really anxious.

She had finally managed to spawn a decent high-level elite monster in the wild, and before she could even change her clothes, she was eager to rush over and enjoy the experience pack all to herself. However, she was held back by the two of them.

Don't be fooled by how arrogant this elite monster is now; it might run away or get killed by some other Ultimate Beastmaster who happens to be passing by.

Who will be responsible then?

However, Xue Youyou, who was now unable to move an inch, also realized that being impatient at such a critical moment would only make things worse. If she didn't figure out how to deal with the two people next to her first, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to concentrate on fighting the ultimate beast tamer.

With her back to the two, Xue Youyou's eyes darted around as she began to think of a solution.

Just as Meng Yanqing was about to knock Xue Youyou unconscious and forcibly take her away, Xue Youyou suddenly stopped struggling and calmly said, "Qingbao, Yutang."

At the critical moment of life and death, two heartfelt calls gave Meng Yanqing and Lu Yutang goosebumps.

Meng Yanqing blushed and asked, "Wh...what's wrong?"

Lu Yutang blinked at Xue Youyou, waiting for her to continue.

It gave me a strange sense of déjà vu, like I was making my final arrangements.

Xue Youyou pulled up her bathrobe, which had slipped off her shoulders, and said softly, "I know that the ultimate beast tamer is very strong, and I also know that my chances of winning against her on paper are probably less than 10%, but no matter what, I have to give it a try."

"One percent is too low, You..."

"One percent is enough."

Xue Youyou interrupted Meng Yanqing, her face serious, and said, "As the captain, I have a responsibility to protect my teammates."

"As a member of Lan Zhi Academy, I should lend a helping hand when my classmate is in danger."

"More importantly, as a beast tamer, under any circumstances, as long as there is even the slightest possibility of success, we should never lose the courage to move forward. I firmly believe that every pet has infinite potential. As long as we, as beast tamers, do not give up and believe in our pets, they will respond to our expectations."

"faint……"

Meng Yanqing and Lu Yutang were both stunned and unconsciously let go of each other's hands.

"No matter what kind of desperate situation you're in, you should always believe in your pet beast..." Meng Yanqing murmured.

Although it's a clichéd platitude, the way Xue Youyou said it carried a magical power that made people believe it.

Meng Yanqing's heart was surging with emotion, and her eyes shone with a faith-like light called longing.

That's so cool!

When she returns, she will definitely erect a jade tablet to commemorate this profound saying and formally incorporate it into her art of beast taming.

At this time, the young Meng Yanqing had no idea that years later, it was because she believed Xue Youyou's nonsense that she was so hyped up that she was almost beaten to death by a group of ultimate beast tamers, paying a heavy price.

Seeing that both of them were completely fooled by her, Xue Youyou knew the time was ripe.

Now is the perfect time to embark on this journey!

A sudden inspiration struck her. Xue Youyou pulled her hand out of her sleeve, then tied the bathrobe in a knot at her neck, turning it into a cape.

Amidst their adoring and bewildered gazes, Xue Youyou stylishly tossed her flowing snow-white hair back, feigning tragic heroism as she declared, "So—let me bravely face death like a beast tamer!"
