Chapter 2656: Look at Him with New Eyes
Young Master Ye, please!
Lin feng zhi also signaled that Ye Liuyun could begin.
Ye Liuyun glanced at the black panther; its divine soul power and realm were roughly the same, and there was nothing particularly special about it.
In his view, it was hardly different from a large cat.
It was simply pacing back and forth in the cage, agitated, snarling and baring its teeth at the nearby soldiers.
Ye Liuyun waited for the soldiers to lower the cage, then immediately walked over.
He instantly placed a slave seal on the black panther.
The black panther immediately lay down on the ground, obediently lowering its head toward Ye Liuyun.
This scene left everyone stunned, mouths agape.
How is this possible?
You made the black panther lower its head so quickly?
Impossible; the black panther must have just been tired!
Some beast tamers couldn't believe what they saw, making excuses for their incompetence.
Ye Liuyun calmly said, "Open the cage!"
This left everyone staring at each other in disbelief.
Lin feng zhi was also taken aback, but seeing the obedient black panther lying before him, he felt that Ye Liuyun might truly be different from other beast tamers.
Commandant, we can't open the cage! This black panther's realm is too high and its speed too great; once released, it would be dangerous!
A beast tamer immediately suggested to Lin feng zhi.
It won't hurt anyone! I've already tamed it!
Ye Liuyun retorted.
In just that brief moment, you tamed it?
Do you know that deceiving the commandant is a capital offense?
That beast tamer clearly didn't want to believe Ye Liuyun's words.
Ye Liuyun shrugged, looked at Lin feng zhi, and said, "How can we demonstrate it if we don't let it out?"
Are you sure you've tamed it?
Lin feng zhi asked seriously.
The beast tamer beside him added, "Do you dare stake your life on it?"
I'm sure.
I can also stake my life on it!
Ye Liuyun said firmly.
Alright.
Open its cage!
Lin feng zhi also agreed.
But he still had Lin Xiaoxiao hide behind him, just in case something happened.
The soldiers stepped forward, nervously unlocked the chain, then immediately retreated to in front of Lin feng zhi, drawing their spears and standing ready.
Ye Liuyun pulled off the iron chain, then opened the cage door: "Come out!"
Upon hearing that, the black panther immediately rose and walked out of the iron cage.
Everyone widened their eyes, finding it unbelievable.
But then Ye Liuyun continued to command: "Lie down, open your mouth!"
The black panther complied.
Its massive body lay before Ye Liuyun, and with its huge jaws opened, it could swallow him whole.
Yet Ye Liuyun reached his hand into its mouth.
Ah!
Lin Xiaoxiao gasped in shock, worried that the black panther would snap its jaws shut and bite Ye Liuyun to death.
However, Ye Liuyun pulled out a slender sliver of bone from behind one of the black panther's teeth.
It's been irritable lately because it has something stuck between its teeth!
Ye Liuyun explained to everyone.
And the black panther, a complete change from its former ferocity, rubbed its big head against Ye Liuyun's leg, as gentle as a large cat.
Ye Liuyun then leapt onto the black panther's back, letting it carry him around in a circle.
Afterward, Ye Liuyun directed the black panther to charge at the beast tamer.
Carry him over, but don't kill him!
Ye Liuyun commanded.
The black panther immediately, at great speed, leapt over the soldiers' line, bit the beast tamer in one bite, then jumped back to the beast-taming arena.
Spit!
Ye Liuyun gave another command, and the black panther spat out the beast tamer.
Ah... The beast tamer, terrified, turned pale, screamed continuously, crawled back two steps, then got up and ran.
But at this point, everyone could see that he was indeed unharmed.
Ye Liuyun patted the black panther's head, making it lie down.
He then jumped down from the black panther and walked toward Lin feng zhi.
Commandant, are you satisfied with this result?
Ye Liuyun asked loudly.
"Satisfied, satisfied!"
Lin feng zhi was utterly shocked; apart from feeling satisfied, he couldn't say anything else.
He also began to look at Ye Liuyun with new eyes.
"No wonder he's so arrogant; he really does have skill."
"Looks like I've found a treasure this time."
Afterwards, he spoke to Ye Liuyun more politely.
He also immediately ordered someone to bring Ye Liuyun tea, offer a seat, and let him rest a while.
Even Lin Xiaoxiao was stunned by Ye Liuyun's move.
"So he's actually that strong!"
She thought to herself.
Originally she thought Ye Liuyun dressed rather rustically and looked down on him a bit, but after he showed his ability, Lin Xiaoxiao's attitude did a complete 180-degree turn.
You should know that beast tamers in the Liulin Dynasty hold a lofty profession.
Ye Liuyun's display alone was enough to earn him respect in the Liulin Dynasty.
Lin feng zhi also began chatting with Ye Liuyun, saying the beast-taming grounds still had a Heaven-Man Second Level Golden Eagle.
That was a gift from the royal family to Lin feng zhi.
But the golden eagle's temper was too stubborn; it remained unbroken and had not been tamed.
The beast tamer who had just been frightened half to death by Ye Liuyun was the one specifically in charge of taming the golden eagle.
Yet after a year of taming, the golden eagle still couldn't be ridden.
Upon hearing Lin feng zhi want Ye Liuyun to tame the golden eagle, he immediately interjected: "Commandant, I've already been taming that golden eagle for a year; I know its temperament well, and it will soon be broken.
"Suddenly changing handlers might provoke its discomfort and rebellion."
Lin feng zhi also hesitated upon hearing that.
Ye Liuyun, however, laughed and said: "Rebellion?"
"What beast tamer, after a year of taming, still hasn't succeeded and worries about rebellion?"
"That golden eagle is a gift from the royal family to the Commandant; you must not harm it at all—what do you know?"
"Moreover, its nature is very proud..." The beast tamer, embarrassed by Ye Liuyun's remark, turned red and could only make excuses.
Ye Liuyun simply waved his hand, cutting off the beast tamer's words, and said: "Every beast tamer has his own taming method.
I don't need that much time.
You don't need to deny it; just bring the golden eagle over and try—then you'll know.
Seeing Ye Liuyun's confidence, Lin feng zhi immediately ordered: "Go fetch the golden eagle."
The beast tamer, helpless, had no choice but to lead the golden eagle.
After a year of training by him, the golden eagle had become largely tamed and could be controlled with just a single chain.
Aside from not allowing riders, it was normally very obedient.
The beast tamer, unwilling to let Ye Liuyun steal the spotlight, secretly instructed the golden eagle to attack Ye Liuyun later.
He intended to take it out to eat.
Thus the golden eagle, excited, followed the beast tamer to the beast-taming grounds.
The Heaven-Man Second Level Golden Eagle is one level higher in realm than the black panther.
Its size is also one notch larger than the black panther's.
Ye Liuyun directly had the black panther step aside to make room for the golden eagle.
The golden eagle was eager and ready, waiting to eat.
The beast tamer then extended the iron chain toward Ye Liuyun: "Young Master Ye, please!"
Ye Liuyun knew he was dissatisfied, but paid no mind, walking straight into the beast-taming grounds to face the golden eagle.
