Chapter 13: It
Unreasonable, it is truly too unreasonable.
Luo Shuiyan had originally thought that she was a reborn Empress and possessed dual talents.
For a Beast Tamer, such talent was already an extremely heaven-defying existence.
Yet in front of this mysterious Mythical-grade Spirit Beast, it was still not enough to look at.
Right now, Jiang Che was only a Black Iron-grade Spirit Beast; if one day he could activate his Mythical-grade Spirit Beast bloodline, Luo Shuiyan dared not imagine how formidable he would be!
In just this short while, Jiang Che had already broken through to a Second-tier Spirit Beast.
This speed was truly somewhat heaven-defying, and the most critical point was that Jiang Che had been sleeping the whole time.
Being able to improve his cultivation just by sleeping every day, where is the logic in that?! Even Luo Shuiyan felt her mindset was a bit unbalanced at this moment.
However, she soon thought of something.
Jiang Che and she were in a contract relationship, and the two of them complemented each other.
If Jiang Che's cultivation was faster than hers, then she would also have higher gains.
Thinking of this, Luo Shuiyan felt relieved, her heart filled with joy.
Who could have imagined that the Black Iron-grade Spirit Beast the world looked down upon would actually be a hidden Mythical-grade Spirit Beast bloodline!
She had really hit the jackpot this time.
"Hehe, Xiaobai, I didn't expect you to be so amazing; then this sister's second half of her life will depend on you!"
Luo Shuiyan's eyes were shining a bit.
A Mythical-grade Spirit Beast was simply too mysterious; even in her past life as an Emperor-grade Beast Tamer, she had never come into contact with a Mythical-grade Spirit Beast.
She never expected that after being reborn, she would discover that these legendary Mythical-grade Spirit Beasts were actually so terrifying! Luo Shuiyan had just been telling Jiang Che that she would take him to explore the continent.
Now it seemed that, for the most part, she would have to rely on Jiang Che to carry her.
It was worth it that she disregarded her pride to acknowledge him as her master.
Seeing Luo Shuiyan's excited appearance, Jiang Che also returned to the same leisurely posture he had just been in.
"It's all easy to say, all easy to say; just make sure this young master is well-fed and well-served."
"Hehe, alright! I'll go cook right now!"
Luo Shuiyan skipped and hopped toward the kitchen, looking very lively and cute.
Watching Luo Shuiyan's back, Jiang Che raised his eyebrows slightly.
The little girl before his eyes looked no different from a girl next door; it was truly hard to imagine that in her past life, she was a peerless Empress.
But this made Jiang Che feel at ease; after all, in his past life, he was just a miserable wage slave.
If this Luo Shuiyan were truly a person with deep schemes who mastered the art of imperial power, he might not have been able to outwit her.
……
Two days passed quickly, and Luo Shuiyan, carrying Jiang Che who looked like a sticky rice ball, arrived at the Jianghai Beast-Taming Academy.
To graduate from the academy, one must register the Beast Tamer's own information as well as the contracted Spirit Beast at the academy.
"Shui Yan! I'm over here!"
Luo Shuiyan looked toward the sound and saw Lin Xue'er standing at the academy entrance.
The two had previously agreed to come to the academy to register together.
Seeing that Luo Shuiyan was still only holding Jiang Che in her arms, Lin Xue'er couldn't help but knit her delicate brows, her face full of worry.
"Shui Yan, are you really going to take this little guy to register?"
"Although he looks cute, he really doesn't look like he has any offensive power, and he is only a Black Iron-grade Spirit Beast..."
As Lin Xue'er spoke, she freed a hand to tease Jiang Che.
"With such a little cutie, if you take him to fight other Beast Tamers in the future, wouldn't that be sending snacks to other people's Spirit Beasts?"
Touching the smooth fur on Jiang Che's body, Lin Xue'er shook her head.
Jiang Che listened with a face full of black lines. You dead flat-chested girl, every time we meet you have to pick on me first! Jiang Che's gaze shifted downward and happened to see the Yindiao in Lin Xue'er's arms, and a wicked smile immediately curled at the corner of his mouth.
They say you have to look at the master before beating the dog, so I'll just look at you, the master, before beating your dog.
You little Yindiao, if you want to blame someone, blame your master for having such a loose tongue!
Jiang Che only released a tiny bit of his aura, and the Yindiao, which had been sleeping soundly in Lin Xue'er's arms, was instantly startled awake.
The terrifying pressure of a Mythical-grade Spirit Beast on Jiang Che's body scared the Yindiao until its limbs went limp and its whole body trembled.
"Ayin, what's wrong with you again?"
The Yindiao in her arms having a problem scared Lin Xue'er half to death.
She didn't expect that this Yindiao would actually have this unknown symptom again.
"It's really strange, Ayin is always fine at home, why does it tremble non-stop as soon as it sees this little cutie? Could it be that their personalities clash?"
Lin Xue'er had a look of confusion on her face and was also somewhat anxious.
After the Yindiao had a problem in front of Jiang Che once before, she had taken it for a check-up.
The result was that they said the Yindiao's physical condition was excellent, which left Lin Xue'er very puzzled.
She didn't expect that as soon as they met today, it would become like this again.
A trace of a smile flashed across Luo Shuiyan's beautiful eyes, "Maybe my Xiaobai is more likable, and your Yindiao is a bit happy to see him, which is why it's a bit excited."
Having already seen through the reason for the matter, Luo Shuiyan couldn't help but curl her lips into an arc.
Immediately, she reached out and gently patted Jiang Che, signaling for Jiang Che to stop while he was ahead.
Luo Shuiyan also hadn't expected that this little guy looked very cute and harmless, yet he was quite vengeful.
Sure enough, when Jiang Che withdrew his pressure, the Yindiao stopped trembling, though its state was slightly listless and it dared not look into Jiang Che's eyes.
Just as Lin Xue'er and Luo Shuiyan were preparing to go inside, they suddenly heard a frivolous shout from behind.
"Yo, isn't this our school beauty Luo."
The two turned their heads to look, only to see a man wearing designer brands walking over.
Behind him followed several lackeys who looked like bootlickers, and they were leading a massive tiger-type Spirit Beast!
That fierce tiger had a sturdy build and looked exceptionally imposing.
"I heard that our great school beauty, the great genius Luo, actually signed a contract with a Black Iron-grade Spirit Beast?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, let me guess, it wouldn't happen to be this little fellow in your arms, would it?"
The young man mocked with a playful expression on his face.
Luo Shuiyan glanced at him coldly, then ignored him and lifted her leg to walk toward the school gate.
However, the two followers behind the man circled directly in front of them, blocking their path.
"Chen Zijie, what exactly do you want to do?!"
Lin Xue'er, who was to the side, was furious and immediately turned around to shout a rebuke.
Jiang Che, who was being held in Luo Shuiyan's arms, heard the commotion and raised his head to look at the young man in front.
This look was all it took; Jiang Che burst out laughing with a pfft.
The man before him truly had a face that was begging for a beating.
In Jiang Che's past life, he would have been a quintessential street hoodlum, the kind who should be taken away for a "chat" immediately.
Jiang Che understood in his heart that, according to the development of the plot.
These guys in front of him were, without a doubt, the classic cannon fodder villains specifically meant to provide experience points to these daughters of destiny.
Usually, people like this end up with a rather miserable fate.
