Elder Xiao and the others held their breaths as they stared at the Fire Spirit Beasts, afraid that they would not agree to leave with Yun Chujiu.
Under everyone’s eager gazes, the eight Fire Spirit Beasts nodded one after another and squeaked!
“Alright! Since you’ve already decided, do you still need to go back and retrieve anything? If you don’t need anything, let’s go!” Yun Chujiu was laughing in her heart, but she looked calm on the surface.
The eight Fire Spirit Beasts shook their heads. There was nothing else there other than ores and earth fire. Frankly, they had long since grown tired of the place, but they could only hide there for their own safety.
Yun Chujiu’s eyes rolled, and evil tricks bubbled up in her heart. If she brought those eight Fire Spirit Beasts back to Spirit Radiance Sect, she would not get anything. She had to keep them for herself.
Yun Chujiu said with a troubled expression, “Elder Qu, these Fire Spirit Beasts are too eye-catching. If we take them out like this, we’ll definitely be targeted and robbed by all sorts of forces!”
Elder Qu and the others were so happy that they were dumbfounded. They had silly smiles on their faces. ‘Oh my God, there are eight Fire Spirit Beasts! The Heavenly Gates Sect relies on just one Fire Spirit Beast and are already so cocky. Spirit Radiance Sect has eight of them in one go. Oh my God, we’ve struck the gold mines!’ It was not until Yun Chujiu asked them several times that they finally came back to their senses!
“Ah? Ah! What did you say? Yes, what you said makes sense. Then what should we do?” Elder Qu looked at Yun Chujiu. She was a little fairy. Hmm, no. That’s not right. She was a money-grubbing little girl!
Yun Chujiu touched her chin and said awkwardly, “It’s best to hide them. It’s better to put them into the Spirit Beast Pouch. However, spirit beasts that don’t have owners can’t be put into the Spirit Beast Pouch.”
An Feng blinked his eyes. ‘Miss Jiu, is it really okay for you to lie like this? The Spirit Beast Pouch given to you by His Excellency can obviously contain a spirit beast that doesn’t have an owner!’
Elder Qu and the others knew that Spirit Beast Pouches indeed could not contain a spirit beast that did not have an owner, so Yun Chujiu successfully led them astray!
“What should we do? Although we’ve never seen a Fire Spirit Beast before, people would guess their identity easily since we’re here in the Fire Valley.”
“Little Jiu is right. The safest way is to put these Fire Spirit Beasts into the Spirit Beast Pouch. However, if they don’t have an owner, they won’t be able to put them into the pouch.”
An Feng said nonchalantly, “Then why don’t we just get these Fire Spirit Beasts acknowledge someone as its owner?”
Yun Chujiu gave An Feng a bunch of thumbs up in her heart. What did it meant to be a promising and ambitious subordinate? An Feng was a pretty good example!
“But since ancient times, these strange beasts have never acknowledged any masters. They’re stubborn and would rather die than be driven by others. It’s said that the one from Heavenly Gates Sect stayed there by chance, but didn’t acknowledge a master,” Elder Qu said with a frown.
Yun Chujiu said with a smile, “Everything depends on the person! Let me try!”
Yun Chujiu squatted down and said to the three big Fire Spirit Beasts, “You heard it too. If you don’t acknowledge a master, someone might come after you once you get out of this fire cave. I won’t force you but you should think about it carefully. If you acknowledge a master, it will not only ensure your safety, but also facilitate communication. If you have any needs, I’ll satisfy you immediately!”
Elder Qu and the others finally understood. Oh God, she was tricking them again!! If the eight Fire Spirit Beasts acknowledged her as their master, would she not be able to be all powerful?!
