Chapter 9: Leave the Fighting to Me!

"Am I that scary?"

"This little marten is too timid."

With just a single glance, Jiang Che scared the Yindiao until it collapsed and could not get up.

Lin Xueer, unaware of the reason.

Seeing the Spirit Beast she had just contracted turn into this state at this moment.

Was anxious beyond measure for a moment.

She hurriedly reached out to scoop the Yindiao into her arms and examined it carefully.

However, what puzzled Lin Xueer was that after checking the Yindiao's body thoroughly, she did not find the slightest injury.

There was not even a single bruise on its entire body.

This left Lin Xueer very confused; why would this Silver Grade Yindiao be so abnormal?

Watching Lin Xueer hold that Yindiao in her arms, Jiang Che raised his eyebrows slightly.

He then looked up and happened to meet Luo Shuiyan's gaze.

Luo Shuiyan was also very tactful and directly pulled Jiang Che into her own arms.

Jiang Che had already retracted the aura of his Kirin Bloodline; he now looked harmless to both humans and animals, and extremely cute.

Held in Luo Shuiyan's arms, Jiang Che even rubbed against her forcefully.

After shifting his position, he even rested his head directly upon her towering chest.

Hmm, it is softer here after all.

As Jiang Che dissipated the pressure of his Kirin Bloodline, that Yindiao, which had been scared into a collapse, gradually recovered some of its strength.

At this moment, in Lin Xueer's arms, it was already able to barely stand up.

However, Lin Xueer discovered.

That for some reason, this Yindiao's mental state was a far cry from before.

After just one look at Jiang Che, it was so scared that it buried its head into Lin Xueer's chest and refused to lift it no matter what.

Lin Xueer, who had originally intended to persuade Luo Shuiyan further, was also feeling very depressed at this moment.

She had wanted to advise her good friend to be sure to choose a Spirit Beast carefully.

She had not expected to be a step too late.

Luo Shuiyan, a person with Golden-grade talent, had actually contracted a Spirit Beast with a Black Iron-grade bloodline; she was destined to become the laughingstock of Jianghai Beast-Taming Academy in the future.

Even if Luo Shuiyan had outstanding talent.

With a Spirit Beast that held her back, her cultivation would also be implicated.

Even if she could become a Beast Tamer, she was destined to achieve nothing great.

The most critical part was that not only did she fail to persuade her, but she also got her own Spirit Beast involved.

Lin Xueer cherished this newly contracted Silver Grade Yindiao dearly.

Now that the Yindiao had become like this, Lin Xueer no longer had the heart to stay any longer.

"Forget it, Shui Yan, I have already told you everything that needs to be said."

"Since you insist on acting willfully, there is nothing I can do."

Looking at the calm-faced Luo Shuiyan, Lin Xueer could only sigh heavily.

She truly could not understand why Luo Shuiyan had changed so much in these past few days.

Lin Xueer's gaze shifted back to Jiang Che.

Her eyes were full of confusion.

After looking him over carefully a few more times, she found that apart from being cute, Jiang Che had no other merits.

What kind of magic could he possibly have to attract Luo Shuiyan?! "Shui Yan, what Spirit Beast you choose to contract is your freedom; even if I don't understand it, I cannot force you to change your mind."

"But do not forget, Spirit Beasts are meant for fighting."

"If you encounter danger in the future... you aren't really counting on this little guy to fight, are you?!"

Looking at Jiang Che, who was still squinting his eyes and sleeping, Lin Xueer truly could not understand if this little guy could fight.

Could it be that it really intends to rely on its very cute appearance to make the enemy spare its life? Speaking of cute, Lin Xueer had to admit that Jiang Che's appearance was simply too adorable. At this moment, Jiang Che was curled up in Luo Shuiyan's arms like a small ball of sticky rice.

Lin Xueer could hardly take her eyes off him and subconsciously reached out to start stroking Jiang Che's forehead.

The smooth fur felt truly pleasant to the touch.

It was just a pity; a Black Iron-grade Spirit Beast had no combat power, let alone this kind of existence that only knew how to act cute...

On the other side, Luo Shuiyan was also stunned after hearing Lin Xueer's words.

"Fighting?"

She looked at Jiang Che in her arms and actually agreed with Lin Xueer's words in her heart.

Could this little guy really fight?

Seeing Luo Shuiyan dazed for a moment, Lin Xueer sighed helplessly.

In Lin Xueer's view, Luo Shuiyan had likely only just realized this now.

If one relied solely on a Black Iron-grade Spirit Beast to fight other Beast Tamers, it would certainly be a guaranteed loss.

It was just that Lin Xueer did not know that the main reason for Luo Shuiyan's daze was not worrying about Jiang Che's combat power.

She was an Empress reborn.

If she were to let a Mythical-level Bloodline Spirit Beast enter the fray... would that not be a bit too much of a bully? Looking at Jiang Che's dazed and cute appearance, a curve also appeared at the corner of Luo Shuiyan's mouth.

Although Jiang Che possessed a Mythical-level Spirit Beast bloodline, he was currently still in an unawakened stage.

As for whether he could fight right now, Luo Shuiyan also felt a bit uncertain in her heart.

"Whatever, if it comes to a fight, I'll just step in myself."

"Living this life again, even without the help of a Contracted Spirit Beast, I can easily defeat them with my own strength."

Luo Shuiyan's tone was full of confidence.

Having been an Empress in her past life, what she knew was not merely as simple as being a Beast Tamer.

In her previous life, she had experienced all kinds of hardships, so she still had this bit of confidence to deal with those novice Beast Tamers now.

"Shui Yan, I advise you to think it over carefully."

"Take advantage of the fact that the contract time hasn't been long; if it really won't work, just change to another Spirit Beast."

Before leaving, Lin Xueer still couldn't help but turn around and advise her with some worry.

With Luo Shuiyan's talent, a Black Iron-grade Spirit Beast was destined to be nothing but a burden in the future.

Since the contract time hasn't been long yet, it could be completely changed out.

If too much time passes, wanting to change it then would result in a huge loss.

It might even cause severe damage to her vitality.

Why is this woman so annoying every time we meet?

Listening to Lin Xueer incessantly telling Luo Shuiyan to abandon him, Jiang Che frowned slightly.

Between him and Luo Shuiyan, he was the master and Luo Shuiyan was the subordinate.

Only he had the right to break the contract; Luo Shuiyan had no such right at all.

Subsequently, Jiang Che released another wisp of his formidable aura.

The Yindiao, which had just recovered its senses, immediately had its fur stand on end again and trembled uncontrollably, cowering in Lin Xueer's arms and shivering.

"Ayin, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"

With the Yindiao having an issue, Lin Xueer said this anxiously, her voice even carrying a hint of a sob.

"Xue'er, is your marten sick? You should take it to get checked out."

Fearing that Lin Xueer's Spirit Beast would be scared into having problems by Jiang Che, Luo Shuiyan hurriedly urged her to leave.

"Little guy, are you angry?"

"Rest assured, I couldn't bear to abandon you."

Hearing this, Jiang Che couldn't help but roll his eyes.

I just think Lin Xueer is too noisy, and you are taking yourself too seriously, aren't you? (End of chapter)
