However, just because the two of them were fine did not mean that the divine beast in front of them was fine. The divine beast understood the relationship between cultivators very well. After hearing Shen Jiang's words, it no longer leaned on Second Brother Jiang. Instead, it squeezed in the direction of Shen Jiang. He had to rely on his stronger background, so the intention of flattering him was no longer obvious. "Aiyo, damn it, can't you move? This princess is about to be squeezed to death by your big butt.”Shen Jiang couldn't take it anymore and wanted to stick to the big rock. This divine beast actually betrayed him in the blink of an eye like a chameleon.
"Tsk, a weak-willed fellow deserves to be remembered.”The Dragon-bearded Tiger seemed to be very disdainful of the divine beast's disdain for its master's actions, and it said this while it was down. "Buzz!" There was another soft sound, but this time, the sound had nothing to do with them in the tree hole. On the contrary, the array set up by Second Brother Jiang was broken by the group of people outside. The Dragon-bearded Tiger immediately ran into the spirit beast pouch and hid in the blink of an eye.
The divine beast Little Qilin was also very nervous. The aura on its body fluctuated from time to time. "Greetings, Fellow Daoist inside. I am Gao Lanying from the Gao Clan of Mianchi City. I wonder if Fellow Daoist can come out and meet me.”The one who spoke was the beautiful woman. Her servants had already brought over dozens of beastmen. Some were killed, some were driven away. The entire place was completely destroyed. He only left the tree hole where Second Brother Jiang and the others were. He knew that there was an array here, so he specially left it there.
Shen Jiang pushed the mythical beast away a little and removed the door of the tree hole generously. He walked out and said,""Greetings, Fellow Daoist Gao. I am Shen Jiang of the Shen Kingdom's royal family." Shen Jiang's self-introduction was much simpler. There was no long list of titles or official hats. The simpler it was, the more it reflected her identity. Just a name, no, just a ranking, had stunned those people. Gao Lanying's expression changed quickly. She became very kind and the arrogance on her face was completely gone.
"So it's the princess of Shen Country, this young lady was rude.”Gao Lanying bowed to Shen Jiang again. The people behind her also greeted Shen Jiang. The gap between the first-rate forces and the second-rate forces was too obvious."Miss Gao, what brings you here?" Shen Jiang asked even though she knew the answer. Who asked the divine beast in the tree hole to stick its head out and keep prodding her butt? She could barely stand up.
"I'm not happy with your highness, the princess of Shen Country. I'm here for that divine beast, Little Qilin.”Gao Lanying naturally saw that there was not only the divine beast, Little Kylin, but also a cultivator with a very weak aura in the tree hole behind Shen Jiang. However, she still stated her intentions very directly."Did Miss Gao follow this divine beast Little Qilin all the way here?”Shen Jiang slapped away the divine beast's harassment and looked at Gao Lanying indifferently."“……”
"Fellow Daoist Gao, do you know that we've been fighting this divine beast for quite some time before you arrived?”
“……”
"Fellow Daoist, please return!" Shen Jiang said without giving him any face. After three sentences and two questions, he finally gave the order to drive her away. Gao Lanying's expression was very ugly. She looked at the divine beast for a while and then turned her gaze back to Shen Jiang's face."Your Highness, I really need this divine beast. I wonder if Your Highness is willing to part with it and pay for it.”
"I heard that your father went berserk during his cultivation and was seriously injured. He needed the blood essence of a divine beast to refine pills and the flesh and blood of a divine beast to supplement his nutrition. However, although the divine beast in front of us is also a divine beast, its bloodline has not awakened yet, and its meat is not up to standard. Could it be that Miss Gao wants to use a counterfeit as the genuine one and pass it off as the good one to delay your father's illness? If your father's injury worsened because of the stolen cards, you would be unfilial. Moreover, if this cub wanted to be freed from slavery, how long would it take to awaken this divine beast bloodline? Perhaps by then, everyone would have transformed into Dao!”
"Princess Shen, since you know what I need, why don't you help me? For my father's Qi deviation, I will spare no effort to find the prescription. Although the Divine Beast Bloodline has not reached the level of refinement, it is better than nothing. We will naturally go inside to continue searching. However, since we already have this Divine Beast, it will be able to solve my father's temporary problem.”It seemed like Gao Lanying had set her eyes on this divine beast and wanted it no matter what.
Second Brother Jiang felt extremely awkward when he heard Shen Jiang's righteous words. What did it have to do with Shen Jiang if he wanted to be filial to his father? "If you want to show your filial piety, I naturally won't ask. However, I'm afraid your father won't want this thing that he stole.”The smile on Shen Jiang's face faded. She had been talking for so long, but she was playing the lute to a cow?
"Your Highness, your words are too extreme. This divine beast, Little Kylin, has not yet formed a contract with Your Highness, the princess of Shen Country.”After all, Gao Lanying was young and vigorous. The Shen family was indeed powerful, but that was the Shen family, not Shen Jiang herself. She was just a candidate and not a decision-maker. If anything happened, the Shen family would not really fight the Gao family to the death.
However, she was the true young master of the Gao family. Shen Jiang had repeatedly tried to gain her face. He was looking down on her and did not even take the Gao family seriously. The ten servants behind her didn't look too good either. The eldest daughter of the Gao family was even more furious, and she looked like she was going to reason with him."Moreover, does the princess of Shen Country think that without our help, she can deal with so many fifth and sixth grade beasts alone?”
Shen Jiang's expression froze. The scene just now was indeed very dangerous. She alone, even with the help of the array, was not a match for those beasts. However, she could not say such words. If she did, it would be equivalent to showing weakness and giving away the ownership of the Divine Beast. It was not that she valued the Divine Beast, but that the Shen family could not afford to lose face.
" Hehe…" A wanton laugh with a hint of disdain sounded in the tree hole. The onlookers were stunned and then looked in the direction of the tree hole. Second Elder Jiang thought that Shen Jiang would be able to get rid of him with just a few words after using the Shen family's name. However, he did not expect to meet a scoundrel. He actually pestered Shen Jiang for a divine beast that had yet to awaken its bloodline.
"Who is it?" Gao Lanying's expression turned ugly. It was the first time in her life that she was mocked so blatantly."Aiyaya, are you angry from embarrassment? You're allowed to shamelessly snatch my divine beast, but you're not allowed to let me laugh?”Second Brother Jiang shook his tattered clothes and opened the folding fan at his waist. He walked out leisurely. Although his clothes were tattered, his aura was like starlight in the dark night, entering the eyes of the people opposite him.
This was the Lover's Slope of Zhaoge Forest. Very few people could maintain their manners in the Lover's Slope of Zhaoge Forest. Although the group of people opposite them had good cultivation, they were also in a sorry state. It was not because they were being chased and beaten badly, but because they could only walk between the trees and shrubs with their feet. Even if they were wearing immortal clothes carved with array patterns and talismans, they would be in a mess.
Of course, they were not as exaggerated as Second Brother Jiang. Their clothes were basically unrecognizable. Even so, Second Brother Jiang still maintained a calm and composed demeanor."Your divine beast? Hehe, Fellow Daoist, you can't speak carelessly. This little kylin doesn't have the symbol of a contract with you.”When Gao Lanying saw Second Jiang's cultivation base, the anger on her face grew even more intense. He was just a Refinement Stage cultivator, not even in the Blessed Realm, yet he dared to mock them!
"Aiya, this fellow Daoist's words are really funny. Hehe, if it's not my divine beast, could it be yours? Try calling out and see if it will respond to you!”Second Brother Jiang raised his hand and stroked the tall divine beast back and forth. The divine beast actually did not move at all and let him stroke it. It did not resist at all. Instead, it rubbed against his body obsequiously. However, there was no sign of a contract on the neck of the divine beast. The expressions of the group of people opposite them flickered. If they called out, it would be strange if they would respond.
"What's wrong? Don't you dare? Then I'll call you. You won't go back on your word after I call you, right?”Second Brother Jiang had already touched the Qilin's mane. It was indeed smooth and shiny. After all, it was a sixth-tier divine beast. Its slippery appearance was really good."Fellow Daoist's words are also very laughable. The divine beast is not stupid. It knows that we want to kill it, so why would it agree to us? If you can save it, it won't be difficult for it to agree to you. This can't be relied on at all. Fellow Daoist, it's better for you to give the divine beast to us. Just tell me how much you want." Gao Lanying threw away her so-called pride and was clearly going to snatch the money.
They only wanted the divine beast, not to kill people. Even if the Shen family came knocking on their door, they would just give them some money at most. They could not give up on this hurdle at all. "That's true. Hehe, it's glorious to be a robber these days. Shouldn't we give out an award to praise them? Those who snatch things are more reasonable than us honest people. Sigh, this world! It's really a mess." Second Brother Jiang waved the fan in his hand gently and looked at the person opposite him with a faint smile.
"There is no need to say more. On the account of the princess of Shen Country, I am willing to pay ten thousand taels. If the princess has no objections, leave this divine beast to us.”As Gao Lanying spoke, she took out a bag from her belt. It was probably filled with the so-called silver notes. The smile on Shen Jiang's face had long disappeared."Since Fellow Daoist Gao has paid for it, it means that this divine beast belongs to me. I wonder why Fellow Daoist Gao thinks that I will definitely sell it? Besides, do you think I'm that kind of poor person? Moreover, you killed so many beasties, and they are all yours. We don't have the desire to be greedy! This means that your efforts have not been in vain. Those high-level beasts can be sold at a good price in Zhaoge Forest, and you can make a big profit. It's enough. Why are you still greedy for my little kylin?”Shen Jiang was also a two-faced person. After all this, Gao Lanying had gotten herself involved.
Previously, he kept saying that the divine beast did not belong to Shen Jiang. Now that he opened his mouth, he wanted to pay for it. If there was a buyer, there would be a buyer. It was obvious that the mythical beast belonged to Shen Jiang, and Gao Lanying was the one who paid for it. If Shen Jiang was not willing to sell it to her, Gao Lanying could not force her to do so! This time, it was Gao Lanying's turn to be stunned. She had never expected that she would still be trapped in the end.
The aura of the ten servants behind her moved, and a wave of pressure pressed down in the direction of Shen Jiang. A trace of ruthlessness flashed in their eyes. Their young master had made such a big joke, but it had to be seen by the Shen family. Of the three candidates for the Shen clan leader, Shen Jiang had the highest support rate. If not for this, they would have taken action long ago.
So what if it was the ancestor's mark? The ancestor's mark could only remember the scene before his death. If he wasn't there before his death and it was some beast, then who would her ancestor go to? Before she died, she was thrown into a group of beasts. The mark could only record the process of being trampled by the beasts, but it could not record the process of throwing the beasts. They didn't want to fight Shen Jiang because of the Shen family. Shen Jiang actually schemed against their young master like this. They couldn't tolerate it."Young master, just kill them. This is the Lover's Slope of Zhaoge Forest. Who knew that we were the ones who made the move? He ordered his subordinates to lure a few grade 6 beasts over, and those beasts would just swallow this damned Shen Jiang alive. There was no need to be so long-winded.”
Uncle Zhang took a step forward and said with a gloomy expression. "Miss, they are right. That damned Princess Shen Jiang is not giving us any face. The family head's illness of Qi deviation is still waiting for our divine beast to save him. This divine beast had no owner to begin with. It did not even have a contract mark. Only the capable could live according to the rules of the martial world.”Uncle Zhang, who had been holding back for a long time, was finally able to speak. He immediately said,"If we had attacked right from the start, there would have been nothing wrong with that. But now that we've been in a stalemate for so long, we probably won't even have time to attract the beasts. Everything here has already fallen into the eyes of the Shen family's head.”As the young master, he naturally knew that there was such a secret technique that could report everything that happened on his side to the master.
Shen Jiang had been standing by the tree hole for so long without batting an eyelid, and there was a young man behind him. It was impossible for him to remain so leisurely and not make a move when he knew that they had ten servants here. He must have already sent a message. She was right. The moment Gao Lanying said that the Divine Beast did not belong to Shen Jiang, Shen Jiang had already activated the Sound Transmission Formation Talisman on his communication jade slip. Even if the country ruler didn't see it now. The Shen family also recorded everything that happened here.
Some of Shen Nation's telepathic talismans were more advanced than Chaoge's. Shen Jiang was fearless because of this. Uncle Zhang and Miss Gao were instantly furious. They knew that, but they just couldn't take it lying down. Both sides were in a stalemate. "Hey, what's a contract symbol?”Second Brother Jiang was frustrated. Chaoge was too high-class for a country bumpkin like him to know anything about.
"The contract symbol is formed by a beast training talisman and materials. It is used to tame beasts. As long as the corresponding contract symbol is placed on the head of the beast, the beast will be tamed even if it is not contracted.”Shen Jiang shrugged." But I didn't bring this. A sixth-grade beastie would need to be marked with a three-thousand-year contract. That thing would cost at least twenty thousand taels of silver. Gao Lanying was really stingy. She didn't even add a single cent.”From Princess Shenjiang's face, one could tell that she despised Gao Lanying.
"Is your Shen family not on good terms with the Gao family?”"It's nothing, we're not on the same level. If we're talking about relationships, it's them who climbed up to our Shen family. However, this princess is now alone and weak, and the other party has the advantage in numbers.”Shen Jiang was a little depressed. She was just too afraid of trouble. Moreover, she was meeting the opposite sex in private. How could she bring some third wheels over? Otherwise, he wouldn't have left without a subordinate.
After saying this, he took out a crystal clear jade slip and opened the communication formation on it."Hehe, it doesn't matter if I, Shen Jiang, don't bring my subordinates. If I bring my communication jade slip, they won't dare to attack me.”As he spoke, he shone the communication jade slip in his hand at the dozen or so members of the Gaos, and then at the divine beast, Second Brother Jiang, and himself. He even made a horoscope with a smile."Father, my life is in your hands. And this little fellow is the cub of the divine beast Qilin! This little pet was saved by her daughter herself. After seeing this, quickly send someone over to help your little princess.”
Princess Shen Jiang was proud. This behavior was too f * cking shameless. Second Brother Jiang could clearly see that the aura of the people opposite him had dissipated in an instant. However, they were unwilling to retreat just like that. However, the Shen family might have already begun to take action, so they were unwilling to be too extreme. Second Brother Jiang laughed silently. What the hell is this communication jade slip, especially the formation talisman on it. I'll study it properly later. It's really a good thing. Can you sell me one too?
