Chapter 129: Decided to Name You Jitaimei (Fourth update, asking for all)

A Temporary Contract is, after all, not a Formal Contract; as long as a Demon Pet's strength is sufficiently powerful, there is a possibility of breaking free from the contract's constraints.

The Flamingo's strength is not much worse than Aixi's, and furthermore, due to completing its Bloodline Metamorphosis, the energy within the Flamingo's body is unimaginably abundant, providing it with powerful assistance to break free from the Temporary Contract.

Most importantly, Li Zhangsheng is still a First-rank Beast Master, while the Flamingo is a Middle-Rank Spirit Beast; the gap in rank between the two is clearly a tier apart.

"Damn it, you ungrateful bird! You treat me like this, even though if I hadn't provided you with energy, you would never have been able to complete your Bloodline Metamorphosis, and you might even have been in mortal danger!"

Li Zhangsheng cursed incessantly, but his movements were not slow in the slightest; he immediately summoned all his Demon Pets.

Brilliant light flashed continuously as Aixi, Kailan, the Paradise Bird, and the Burrowing Mouse instantly surrounded the Flamingo.

The Flamingo glared, its pupils contracting sharply, and it immediately sensed that something was wrong.

"Attack freely, do not destroy the buildings, target the Flamingo!" Without any hesitation, Li Zhangsheng issued the order for a group brawl.

Aixi opened its mouth, and countless cyan light spots gathered rapidly, transforming into a wind blade several feet long, which spun at high speed and slashed toward the Flamingo.

Not far away, under Kailan's concentration, a green blade a zhang long took shape, and with a wave, it unleashed a Leaf Blade Slash!

On the other side, the Burrowing Mouse opened its mouth and spat out an Earth Wave composed of Earth Element energy, which surged toward the Flamingo.

In the sky, accompanied by a loud, clear cry, the Paradise Bird shone brightly, transforming into several light arrows that looked like solid objects, shooting down toward the Flamingo below.

The light arrows and the wind blade were the fastest, and just as they were about to hit the Flamingo, unexpectedly, the Flamingo did not dodge; rich flames emerged on its body surface, as if it had transformed into a fire bird, launching a charge at Aixi.

Boom, boom, boom, boom— Crash—

As soon as they made contact with the flames, the intensity of the wind blade and light arrows was significantly weakened, but they still left several wounds on the Flamingo's body, especially Aixi's wind blade, which left a wound on its chest deep enough to see bone.

However, propelled by the flames, the Flamingo's speed was significantly faster, and it barely avoided the subsequent Leaf Blade Slash and Earth Wave, lunging head-on at Aixi.

Wind Stealth!

Aixi narrowed its eyes; it did not choose to take the hit head-on. A flash of cyan light appeared on its body, and it seemed to turn into a Residual Shadow, easily avoiding the Flamingo's charge and appearing behind it instead.

Crushing Claw!

In an instant, Aixi leaped up, its raised right claw flashing with a cold glint as it struck hard at the Flamingo's back.

Just at this moment, astonishing flames emerged around the Flamingo, and suddenly its figure disappeared; as if shifting shadows, it appeared eerily above Aixi's head.

This was Sacred Shine, a Bloodline Inheritance Skill the Flamingo inherited from the Phoenix!

Before the Flamingo could counterattack, suddenly, several vines as thick as a baby's arm burst from the ground, instantly binding the Flamingo's talons.

The Flamingo subconsciously released flames, instantly burning the vines that bound it to ashes. It was also at this moment that Aixi finished turning around.

Steel Tail!

Not giving the Flamingo another chance, as Aixi finished turning, its tail flashed with a metallic luster, and like a vertical steel whip, it lashed fiercely at the Flamingo.

Chirp—

Under the immense force, the Flamingo let out a pained cry, and only after flying backward for more than ten meters did it barely come to a stop.

At this time, there was another wound on the Flamingo's body deep enough to see bone; if its bones were not quite hard, it would likely have had its bones broken by this whip.

Not giving the Flamingo a chance, the Paradise Bird's attack arrived, and a beam of light engulfed it straight on.

When the beam of light disappeared, the Flamingo struggled a few times, but it no longer had the strength to move.

However, its gaze remained haughty.

Without a doubt, the activated Phoenix Bloodline had a profound influence on the Flamingo, making it yearn for freedom, which was why it had tried everything to break free from the constraints of the Temporary Contract.

Without hesitation, Li Zhangsheng pricked his index finger and, ignoring the Flamingo's slight struggle, pressed his finger onto its head. Since the Temporary Contract had not yet been voided, he only needed to change the Temporary Contract into a Blood Contract; even if the Flamingo struggled with all its might, it was powerless to stop the conversion process.

At the same time, this was also Li Zhangsheng's last Formal Contract slot. Unless his rank as a Beast Master advanced, or he obtained a treasure that could increase the number of Demon Pet Spaces, he would be unable to sign any more Formal Contracts.

No matter how the Flamingo resisted, the Temporary Contract was successfully changed into a Blood Contract, transforming into a Xianxue Yinjie that was branded into the Flamingo's soul.

Amidst an unwilling cry, in an instant, the Flamingo turned into a stream of light and automatically flowed into the Demon Pet Space in the void.

This day could be called a double blessing for Li Zhangsheng; first, he obtained a pair of symbiotic Civet Cats, and immediately after, the Flamingo activated its noble Phoenix Bloodline, and its quality was sublimated. This allowed Li Zhangsheng's strength to increase greatly, and naturally, his Mental Power cultivation speed rose accordingly, making becoming a Second-Rank Beast Master only a matter of time.

The next moment, Li Zhangsheng communicated with the Demon Pet Space, impatiently summoning the Flamingo.

Accompanied by the appearance of a Blood-colored Hexagram, in the blink of an eye, the Flamingo reappeared before Li Zhangsheng.

After converting to the Blood Contract, the connection between Li Zhangsheng and the Flamingo was no longer as weak as before, and he could even sense each other's emotions.

Under these circumstances, although the Flamingo still held its head high and was not overly close to Li Zhangsheng, it was much more obedient than before.

"Headache!" Li Zhangsheng was a bit speechless; to completely subdue the Flamingo, he could only use time to slowly wear it down.

"Flamingo, I won't say any more unnecessary words; I hope we can support each other and share weal and woe in the future! But before that, I have to give you a name!" After talking to himself, Li Zhangsheng cupped his chin and began racking his brains to think of a name.

"Jide or Jide? Uh, this name is a bit of a waste on it; I have to 'retaliate' somehow!" Li Zhangsheng had not forgotten the unpleasantness that happened before; how could he not 'retaliate' against this ungrateful bird?

"Got it!" Suddenly, Li Zhangsheng's heart stirred, and the corners of his mouth rose involuntarily, as if he had thought of an excellent name.

"Jitaimei, what do you think of this name?" To avoid causing the Flamingo displeasure, Li Zhangsheng did not act on his own and asked for the Flamingo's opinion in a consultative tone.

The Flamingo still held its head high; it did not understand the Common Tongue, so naturally, it did not understand the meaning represented by 'Jitaimei', and naturally, it did not refuse.
