Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 820 - 354: Fusion of Sword Intent! Call from the Legend of the Holy Dragon! (2)

A tiny red glow caught the eye.

That was it—merely the diminutive fire sprout of the Flame Lord Fire Spirit.

This...

The Flame Venerable Fire Spirit lay hurled before him, stripped of any power to resist, prompting Su Ping to shoot a wary look at the Ray Saint standing nearby.

Yet on this occasion, the Ray Saint's stare brimmed with gravity: "Su Ping, where did you get this thing from?"

That was all, solely the smoldering little fire sprout.

Guilt flickered in Su Ping momentarily, yet recollecting the recent chaos bolstered his resolve:

"I found it! What’s wrong? I’m planning to take it as my fourth pet beast, how about that?"

Hard to fathom, witnessing the youth's unprecedented boldness stunned even the Ray Saint into a brief pause, his rigid visage easing abruptly—or truth be told, it had lacked true intimidation from the start.

"Uh... it’s your choice, but the Legendary Lord previously promised this Flame Spirit that the Dragon Nation wouldn’t interfere with the rivalry between water and fire. It’s one thing if it’s an ordinary Beast Tamer, but you’re different, Su Ping."

Ray Saint counseled with utmost sincerity:

"You haven’t ascended to Monarch Level yet, right? By the time you reach Dragon City, your future Monarch Level fourth pet can easily contract a dragon from the Dragon Clan, it’s authentic and rooted, why get involved in this muddy water?"

Su Ping peered at the fiery little fire sprout clutched in his palm, then at Ray Saint, propping his chin in contemplation: "Well, what you’re saying makes sense."

"Hiss hiss hiss!" Fury blazed in the little fire sprout—wasn't this not how it was moments ago? Haven't you been set on contracting me as your pet beast all along? How fickle is your determination?

Su Ping brushed off the little fire sprout's outburst and went on:

"What do you mean? The Water Venerable left, and you want to take the little fire sprout away too?"

Ray Saint tightened his lips: "The Legendary Lord said before..."

"I don’t care!"

Su Ping turned shameless:

"No matter what, I’m the breeder Beast Master of this Dragon Emblem’s Dragon Nation, right? Such a guy that came from who-knows-where dared to threaten me, almost costing me my life!Spouted a bunch of nonsense, dropped this thing, and then left? Now you’re not only ignoring it but also giving me trouble?! Is there such logic in the world?!If you don’t have the authority, Senior, I’ll go find Leng Ye, if that doesn’t work, I’ll visit Dragon City and personally seek reasoning from the Legend of the Holy Dragon!Screw the water and fire rivalry, what does it have to do with me? The little fire sprout was picked up by me, if I found it, it’s mine, don’t believe me, ask it, does it acknowledge it’s mine?"

With those words, Ray Saint blinked, his narrow eyes flaring wide as he fixed his gaze on the little fire sprout next to him.

The little fire sprout nodded vigorously at once, affirming Su Ping's words: "Hiss hiss hiss!"

Then, unprecedentedly, it employed its bird-shaped flame head to rub against Su Ping's cheek in a fond gesture.

"So, the little fire sprout isn’t going to be given to you or that Water Venerable, and the higher-ups will stand up for me! To redress my grievance! Otherwise, I won’t reveal the paperman’s breeding method!"

Now Ray Saint grew irate:

"Su Ping, are you being reasonable? That being said before, Legend of the Holy Dragon had restrained it with rules and couldn’t truly harm you or your pet beast, it only came to intimidate you, or maybe for another reason I’m unaware of!In any case, you haven’t lost a single hair, even your pet beast seems to have improved, and now you’re playing rogue? Moreover, it voluntarily opened up perception-blocking, so I could realize something had happened here.It intended for me to come over and smooth things out, what more do you want? Do you really want some Legendary Dragon King from Dragon City to declare war and engage in a legendary battle in the starry sky?"

These remarks left Su Ping momentarily dazed:

"There are other Legendary Dragon Kings within Dragon City? But don’t try that on me! What’s wrong with intimidation? Should I just be scared for nothing?"

Ray Saint's tone hitched before he dismissed it with a wave:

"Never mind, I’m not going to argue with you, you stinky kid, first have your little ones go back, I’ll inform that being first."

Su Ping huffed softly yet held back from further debate, eyeing the surrounding onlookers fixed on him before gesturing dismissal:

"It’s alright now, everyone can go back! Thanks for your help this time."

As affirmations rustled through the air, the Life Ancient Tree withdrew alongside the plant-based pet beasts, Old Sha letting out a worried whine prior to vanishing as well.

Just Xiao Qing and Qian Yi lingered, his own pets still locked in that peculiar state.

Su Ping simply summoned them back to the Beast Taming Space; the little fire sprout could wait.

Truthfully, clarity on the situation eased Su Ping's concerns greatly, for he had already warned that Water Venerable of his hidden ace.

Right before the Water Venerable's arrival, another presence had materialized at his side.

None other than Biyauchun itself.

Not even the vaunted Water Venerable detected Biyauchun's arrival, oblivious to when it had taken notice.

Perhaps Biyauchun held back upon discerning the Water Venerable harbored no real malice toward him?

Then why show up at all? Merely to signal its watchfulness?

Su Ping furrowed his brow, mulling over the entity's parting words once more.
