Chapter 1484: Su Yang's Boyhood Dream! You Want to Ride Me?

Su Yang felt that the fellow before him really might do such a thing.

What difference was there between keeping the Nirvana Phoenix company and being sentenced to a fixed term of imprisonment?

Right now was a critical moment; Su Yang didn't want anything to go wrong.

"Su Yang, don't go making that long-suffering face!" the Nirvana Phoenix said, a little displeased. "If this lady just wanted to spread the word that she was looking for a master, believe it or not, every human beast-tamer in the entire Beast-Tamer Federation would be crying and begging to be taken on."

"Then I'll accept!"

Su Yang said, doing his best to sound reluctant.

He didn't know what the Nirvana Phoenix was scheming.

But the Nirvana Phoenix becoming his beast-companion would still bring him considerable benefits.

If things fell apart, he wouldn't just run into danger—even the Huaxia Federation, and perhaps the entire Blue Water Planet, would suffer for it.

Even if the two of them later parted ways, Su Yang could still cultivate other beast-companions!

By then, Su Yang's strength should be strong enough that he wouldn't have to fear the Nirvana Phoenix!

Sign the contract first; if he wasn't happy later, he'd just kick it out!

Use it, then toss it aside—thinking about it was still quite thrilling!

Of course, that depended on the Nirvana Phoenix's performance.

The Nirvana Phoenix ground its teeth and glared fiercely at Su Yang.

It always felt it had gotten the short end of the stick!

But if it weren't for needing Su Yang, it would have burned this detestable young man until not even ashes remained.

"Let's sign the contract!"

"Alright!"

Beneath the contract array, Su Yang and the Nirvana Phoenix signed the contract.

"Ding~ Congratulations to the host on contracting a satisfactory beast-companion. Mission complete!"

"Ding~ Rewarding the host with one matching Mythical-grade talent and two selectable Mythical-grade resistance talents!"

"Wait, don't issue the reward yet!"

Su Yang immediately stopped the system from sending the reward.

If the Nirvana Phoenix had come sincerely and of its own accord, Su Yang would naturally have given it excellent treatment.

But the 30 loyalty displayed on the attribute panel—what was that about?

There was almost no loyalty; maybe just a sliver of goodwill…

The Nirvana Phoenix had been hiding things from him and had even threatened him.

Su Yang couldn't help but hold something back from it in return…

Combined with the beast-taming experience Su Yang had accumulated over the years, he decided its "treatment" had to be reduced.

The big gift package would be held back for now; he'd wait until the Nirvana Phoenix performed some great meritorious service before slowly doling out rewards.

The Nirvana Phoenix's human form was indeed breathtakingly beautiful!

But so what?

He couldn't touch it, and he couldn't use it… it was completely impractical.

Thinking of this, Su Yang couldn't help but give himself a thumbs-up!

The Nirvana Phoenix said with a sweet, smiling voice: "Master, please guide me well from now on!"

"I don't dare presume to guide you. We're partners, partners, so just call me Su Yang!"

To Su Yang, the two forms of address—"Master" and "Su Yang"—were actually the same.

The Nirvana Phoenix called him "Master" to his face, but who knew what it was really thinking inside?
