Chapter 134 Beast Taming Order
Chapter 134 Beast Taming Order
Qi Xian turned his head unexpectedly to look at the young girl beside him whose face still had a childish look, but whose gaze was surprisingly firm and serious.
He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Young man, I'm really starting to admire you more and more!"
Li Yan pursed her lips.
"You're leaving, right?"
"Ah."
"Then I wish you... a safe and smooth journey."
"Thank you for your kind words, we will definitely be fine."
Qi Xian paused for a moment before continuing, "Why did you chase after Huo Zheng and our Xiao Qi before?"
Li Yan was stunned.
"Huo Zheng... he's not as simple as he seems. He's a very kind-hearted person and always helps others. But strangely, everyone he's looked after or helped disappears from the base shortly afterward. I tried to reduce Huo Zheng's attention to Xie... Xie Yu, but it didn't work."
She took a breath and continued, "So I kept an eye on his movements, and when I saw him about to leave with Xie Yu, I instinctively chased after him. I wanted to know where he was hiding her, or what his destination was."
Qi Xian chuckled.
"You're not stupid either..."
"..."
"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. Xiao Qi has something to give you."
After saying that, he took out a bone flute from his pocket.
"The Fog Mountain Base is backed by mountains and contains many powerful mutated beasts. In a critical moment, they might become your helpers."
Li Yan stared blankly at the small bone flute in Qi Xian's palm, which resembled fine white jade and shone with a warm luster.
After a long pause, she asked uncertainly, "Why...?"
"Thank you for catching our Little Seven's silver wolf."
"Just...just because of this?"
"if not?"
"..."
Seeing her disappointed expression, Qi Xian raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Just kidding. It's because you have a high affinity for animals, making you the most suitable person to control the Beast Taming Command."
"Beast Taming Order?"
"Yes, the Beast Taming Token. It binds to its master with a drop of blood, and you'll naturally understand how to use it. When you don't need it, you can store it in your body and nurture it with your blood and supernatural abilities, so that it can become more in sync with you in the future."
At this point, he added reassuringly, "Don't worry, it won't cause any harm to your body."
The Beast Taming Token was a growth-type spiritual artifact that Yu Yao suddenly obtained after Huo Zheng's death.
With proper care, it may very well evolve into a powerful artifact as its owner grows.
Coincidentally, Huo Zheng wanted Xie Yu's beast-taming ability.
But after his death, he inexplicably gave Yu Yao a bone flute with extremely high usage requirements, also known as the "Beast Taming Token".
The appearance of the Beast Taming Order was abrupt, but Li Yan had risked his life to help Cai Die and possessed extremely high animal affinity.
Her skill level was so high that even without special methods, ordinary mutated beasts wouldn't be able to harm her.
The sudden appearance of the Beast Taming Token seemed as if it had been specially prepared for Li Yanyi by fate!
......
Li Yan stared blankly at Qi Xian.
After a while, just as he was about to reach out to take it, Qi Xian suddenly withdrew his hand and dodged.
And then he pulled something else out of his pocket.
An IOU shaped like a yellow talisman.
"It's not free~ You have to spend crystal cores to buy it."
The talisman clearly stated: "Li Yan purchased a Beast Taming Token from Yu Yao for 1000 Level 3 Elemental Cores. The debt must be settled within two years. Anyone who fails to repay the debt will be struck by lightning and reduced to ashes."
To put it simply, a simple and direct IOU.
Seeing that Li Yanyi had accepted the talisman, Qi Xian said, "If you agree, then we'll form a blood pact."
She is a dual-elemental ability user, so cutting her finger and drawing blood is not difficult for her.
The difficulty lies in making a decision.
But she ultimately made her choice!
Li Yan made a snap decision, quickly conjured a golden blade, cut his finger, and dripped blood into the center of the talisman.
After a flash of light, the talisman turned into a red light and entered her brow.
Qi Xian then placed the bone flute into Li Yanyi's hand.
The moment her bloodied fingertips touched the bone flute, a mysterious power suddenly surged forth.
Li Yan felt a jolt throughout her body, and the methods of controlling and nurturing the Beast Taming Token appeared in her mind.
With a thought, the bone flute transformed into a warm, flowing light and entered her body.
Li Yan looked at his empty palm and remained speechless for a long time.
Qi Xian nodded in satisfaction.
"Alright, the delivery's done. Let's go."
"Wait a moment!"
"what?"
"Her name is Yu Yao, right? Where can I find her now? I still need to return the crystal core to her!"
Qi Xian casually replied, "Once things settle down, you can come find us at Thousand Souls Mountain in Kyoto."
"Thousand Soul Mountain? Isn't that..."
"Yes, it's a no-man's land. But it's only a no-man's land on the surface; it's actually our base."
After Qi Xian finished speaking, Li Yan nodded heavily.
"Okay, then... until we meet again."
"Okay, see you later~ I'm off."
After saying that, Qi Xian waved to Li Yanyi, turned around and left the Mist Mountain Base, stepping over the ruins.
They didn't summon the Vermilion Bird until they had traveled a long way, and it flew towards the place where Chi Heng and Yu Yao were staying.
......
What Qi Xian didn't know was that not long after he left, the Fog Mountain Base was attacked by a zombie horde.
Zombies also pick on the weak; the Fog Mountain base currently lacks a high-level superhuman.
The strong presence of living beings quickly attracted a large number of zombies.
Li Yanyi, with the help of the Beast Taming Token, summoned countless level one and level two mutated beasts, successfully repelling the zombie horde's deadly attack on the Fog Mountain base.
At the same time, it also gave hope and vitality back to the Fog Mountain Base, which had been filled with fear and anxiety!
Li Yanyi, who was once a spoiled young lady, stepped forward at a crucial moment and became the rightful base commander.
The new leader of the Wushan base!
