“Choose this one?” Xu Hongqiu asked.

Immediately, she saw the staff behind her in the Beast Hall, suddenly showing a hint of joy.

“Damn.” Chu Liang pondered, these people were so happy, could it be that he had made the wrong choice?

“Then you two can take this Hou away.” Xu Hongqiu lightly waved her hand, and her subordinates came forward to open the cage.

“Hou?” Di Nvfeng and Chu Liang, master and disciple, exclaimed in surprise.

The so-called demons and monsters.

Among them, it is difficult to distinguish between untransformed beasts and spirit beasts. But generally speaking, the value of spirit beasts is much higher than that of beasts.

Because humans are the most spiritual of all creatures, many beasts that have achieved some cultivation will choose to transform into human form, partly for convenience in the human world, and partly for better understanding of the Dao of Heaven and Earth, promoting cultivation.

So if there are high-level beasts that have not yet transformed, apart from a small part that do not want to transform, most of them are naturally stupid. For example, the second and third realms of the fox and the willow can often transform, but the spirits of grass, trees, mountains, and rocks can only transform in the fifth or sixth realm.

But spirit beasts are different.

The reason why spirit beasts always maintain their original bodies is because they themselves are also spiritual beings blessed by heaven, and their understanding of the Dao of Heaven and Earth is no less than that of human bodies, so naturally they have no need to transform.

So a group of beasts mixed together, although they seem to be of similar realm, in fact, spirit beasts are much stronger than beasts.

And Hou, is a large clan among the spirit beasts.

Among these four, the giant turtle and the strange tree are obviously beasts, the white cat is hard to distinguish, and this big head might be the only spirit beast. Choosing it can be considered a success for the master and disciple.

Of course, saying that it is a large clan is relative to other spirit beasts. For example, the Hakutaku clan, there are only two known in the world. There are many spirit beasts that are passed down in a single line and are unique in the world. The Hou clan, on the other hand, has a relatively large number of species and a relatively large number, with both good and evil.

Outside the imperial palace of Yudu City, two Chaotian Hous are stationed, which are the most righteous and the most effective in guarding the gate; the guardian beast of the Mingwang Sect is a Yueyue Hou, which hides during the day and comes out at night, loves darkness and hates all light.

And the one in front of them is called the Golden Fur Hou.

“This Golden Fur Hou is the treasure of my Beast Hall… it has been here for ten years.” After getting Xu Hongqiu’s permission, a Beast Hall staff member introduced with some excitement, “It is gentle and likable, diligent and hardworking, and brave and good at fighting. It is a must-have for home protection and travel…”

Crack…

Crack…

Before he finished speaking, a harsh sound of metal rubbing came from the side. Di Nvfeng looked over in confusion: “What’s that sound?”

Looking over, it turned out that the Golden Fur Hou was gnawing at the iron cage with its terrifying fangs! And in no time, it had already bitten out cracks, as if it was about to chew it up!

“Uh…” The staff member continued, “Its only flaw might be that it eats a bit too much. If it was hungry before, it would eat the iron cage… Later it got used to it, and it likes to chew a couple of bites to grind its teeth…”

“Your cage must be expensive, right? How often do you change it?” Chu Liang couldn’t help but ask.

“The beast cage made of deep-sea cloud iron, at first we had to change one every three days, but later we figured out a new method, we only need to replace the cage pillar, which greatly reduced the cost…” The staff member answered truthfully.

“Well, it grew up eating iron cages.” Chu Liang sighed, turned his eyes to his master, “Can we afford to keep this thing?”

“What can’t we afford?” Di Nvfeng scoffed, “If it dares to be fierce, just kill it and eat its meat.”

Seemingly sensing a hint of ferocity in her eyes, the Golden Fur Hou shivered, its golden fur suddenly exploded like golden swords and halberds, it lowered its body and bared its teeth, looking at Di Nvfeng, making a low “roar——”

It seemed that if it weren’t for the iron cage blocking it, it would challenge her at any moment…

Chu Liang glanced at the staff member and asked doubtfully, “Gentle and likable?”

“Uh…” The staff member wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, “It’s just not familiar with you yet, this is not necessarily a bad thing, when it serves as a mount, it will be ready to go!”

While speaking, a staff member had already opened the beast cage and led the Golden Fur Hou out. First, they put a huge sealing collar around its neck, then tied it with a heavy iron chain, and handed one end of the chain over.

If it were normal times, this operation would definitely be under strict control, and they would have to hypnotize it with a formation in advance before daring to do it. But now with the sixth realm elder and the seventh realm Di Nvfeng present, they were not afraid of these.

“When you take it out on the street, you must lock the chain, absolutely, absolutely…” The staff member seriously reminded.

“I understand.” Chu Liang nodded, “Walking a Hou without a leash is like the Hou walking you.”

But he didn’t dare to touch the iron chain, and directly handed the end of the chain to Di Nvfeng. The master had no taboos, walked up to it, looked up at this beast over three meters tall, stretched out her hand, and said, “Sit!”

“Roar——” The Golden Fur Hou crouched down, showing its battle stance again.

“Forget it, we’ll bond when we get home.” Di Nvfeng found it quite interesting, turned around and was about to leave with the Golden Fur Hou.

Xu Hongqiu quickly led everyone to see them off, preparing to send these two fierce creatures and Chu Liang out the door.

But just as they were about to leave, Di Nvfeng suddenly turned around, looked at the elder behind Xu Hongqiu, showed a reminiscent look, and asked, “I always feel like I’ve seen you somewhere before, have we met?””Yes, yes, yes.” The Cangxing elder, who had been serious and respectful towards Xu Nanling throughout, immediately nodded at these words, revealing a kind smile. “It’s hard for you to remember.”

“During the Immortal Gate Conference a Jiazi ago, I was one of the four disciples of the Whale Gang that you eliminated with a single punch in the Void God Realm.” His tone carried a hint of complex emotions.

It was unclear whether it was nostalgia or fear.

Chu Liang wasn’t too surprised by this. Although the Cangxing elder and Di Nvfeng looked like they could be grandfather and granddaughter or father and daughter, Di Nvfeng’s age was indeed about the same as his.

Practitioners in the first six realms could slow down aging as their cultivation level increased, but they could never stay young forever. Only when they reached the seventh realm, the realm of questioning, could they maintain their youth.

Generally speaking, the powerful beings of the seventh realm, if they didn’t use special divine powers to change, their current appearance would be the same as when they entered the realm of questioning. There weren’t many who looked as young as Di Nvfeng, because she entered the seventh realm at a very young age.

Her cultivation pace, every step, could be described as a true genius, one that could not be envied.

Hearing this, Di Nvfeng showed a look of realization, then turned and left with Chu Liang. All that could be heard was her patting her chest as she walked, proudly saying, “I told you, we’re all brothers!”

“Ah, yes, yes, yes.” Chu Liang’s laughter followed.

Xu Hongqiu watched their figures recede, finally disappearing at the street corner… A relieved smile appeared on her face.

On the other side, the dying Xu Nanling was the same, even shedding two lines of clear tears. Now that these two were gone, his life was saved.

…

“Master, I’ll go take care of things first.” Turning the corner, Chu Liang parted ways with Di Nvfeng.

On the long street, wherever this master and disciple passed, pedestrians avoided them like a plague. Although there were many in Glutton City leading mounts and beasts, this one was clearly different, right?

It was still chewing on a chain, wasn’t it?

Could this thing really hold it?

How could that woman look so content, judging by the expression of this beast, it would eat you the moment it broke free, right?

Better keep a safe distance…

“Good!” Di Nvfeng, leading the beast, was enjoying her imposing presence on the street. She waved casually at Chu Liang, “Go ahead, you can’t let that guy off so easily.”

“Don’t worry.” Chu Liang patted the thick account book in his arms, “Dare to hit my master’s disciple, how could I let him get away.”
