I Have A Trillion Protagonist Halos

Chapter 179:



"Borrow… the guardian beast?"

The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch was momentarily stunned, then quickly said, "Of course, I don't mind at all. Wait, borrowing is not appropriate!"

He managed to force a smile. "Since we, the Beast-taming Mountain, have caused Young Friend Su to waste so much time today, it's only fair that we compensate. I'll give this Thunder Lion as a gift to you. Later, I'll have our sect master hand over the beast-taming token for this creature to Young Friend Su."

"Patriarch, there's no need. The beast-taming token is with me," Elder Yun said, handing over a jade plaque.

Su Zhan took the jade plaque and examined it curiously. "I remember that beast-taming techniques don't seem to require any tokens, do they?"

"Young Friend Su, you might not be aware, but if you only want to tame a single demonic beast, you indeed don't need it. However, if you want to allow others to have the chance to control your tamed beasts, this kind of token, which can directly activate the tamed beast runes within the creature's body, can be quite effective."

"I see," Su Zhan said, putting away the jade plaque. After a pause, he asked, "So, can I use this jade plaque to directly call back the Thunder Lion?"

Elder Yun replied, "I'm sorry to inform Young Master Su that it's not possible. The effective range of this Thunder Lion token is only about thirty miles. Beyond this distance, it won't be able to activate the tamed beast runes within the Thunder Lion's body, thus restricting its movements. However, although you can't control it directly, as long as Young Master Su extends your spiritual power to the Thunder Lion's dedicated beast-taming token, you'll be able to sense its approximate position, direction, and the closer it is, the more accurate the sense."

"I see," Su Zhan nodded, then followed the advice and placed the Thunder Lion jade plaque against his forehead, channeling his spiritual power into it. As expected, he immediately sensed the Thunder Lion's location, approximately over a hundred and ten miles away, rapidly closing in. The range of distance was increasing, indicating that the Thunder Lion was sprinting wildly.

Exiting his divine body state, the Great Sun Star Sword transformed into a speck of starlight and merged into his forehead. Su Zhan then held the jade plaque in his hand, and the blue light of his Wind God Boots flickered.

In the next moment, arcs of electricity emerged from his body, converging into a lightning bolt that shot toward the direction the Thunder Lion was fleeing with incredible speed.

"Phew, he's finally gone…"

Both the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch and Elder Yun let out a sigh of relief.

"Patriarch, about today's matter…"

"No need to say more!"

The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch shook his head. "Today's events were entirely of our own making. To be honest, considering Su Zhan's terror, even if he wanted to obliterate our Beast-taming Mountain, I wouldn't have been able to stop him!"

Elder Yun hesitated, "But if news of this incident spreads, our Beast-taming Mountain's reputation within a radius of tens of thousands of miles…"

"Reputation?"

The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch sneered, "What's the point of a damn reputation when we're dead? Remember, this person is not someone we can provoke. We can only bear all the consequences! Otherwise, there's only one path: death!"

"I understand." Elder Yun's heart trembled, and he respectfully bowed.

"From now on, Beast-taming Mountain must exercise strict control. We cannot allow any more troublemakers like Feng Xu. This time, we narrowly escaped disaster, but the next time, we might not be so lucky."

"Yes! I will convey your instructions to the sect master in full."

The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch pondered for a moment and said, "Furthermore, let's strengthen our cooperation with the Sole Sword Sect. Although we don't yet know the exact relationship between Su Zhan and the Sole Sword Sect, since he specifically mentioned not to provoke them, it's evident that their relationship is extraordinary. Perhaps, before long, the Sole Sword Sect will replace us and govern the three counties and thirty thousand mile region."

Elder Yun hesitated, "Patriarch, the Sole Sword Sect isn't the strongest in Nine Lakes County. I'm afraid they might not be able to…"

"What does it matter?" The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch shook his head. "With Su Zhan alone, it's enough!"

After a moment of silence, he looked in the direction Su Zhan had disappeared and sighed.

"Alas! I even considered taking him as a disciple, but in the end, I couldn't even block a single strike… Truly embarrassing! Speaking of which, to think that a Fish-Dragon's Fourth Transformation could be so terrifying. Su Zhan can't even be called an unparalleled genius anymore, because geniuses aren't this monstrous! I actually wanted to take in such a freak as my disciple. I must have lost my mind. With this kind of talent, perhaps only the legendary ‘Saint King' would be qualified…"

Filled with melancholy and self-mockery, the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch, covered in blood and in a disheveled state, departed.

"For the next ten years, don't bother me again. I need to properly recover from my injuries." A voice echoed from the direction of the departing Saint Patriarch.

Elder Yun was startled and respectfully responded, "Yes, Patriarch!"

Afterward, he also left Little Cloud Mountain, feeling somewhat apprehensive.

It wasn't until this moment that the disciples of Beast-taming Mountain, dozens of miles away, regained their senses from shock and fear.

Their faces turned pale, and their bodies trembled.

Although separated by dozens of miles, when Su Zhan's sword shattered the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch's lifesource seal, they felt a heart-pounding sensation.

In fact, for some time afterward, they even dared not take deep breaths. Some tried to flee, but their legs wouldn't obey.

Enduring this torment of fear for a long time, they only dared to breathe freely now.

"The Patriarch was defeated! That person is truly terrifying!"

"Who just said he was a body cultivator? To be able to unleash such a terrifying sword strike, he's clearly a Sword Saint!"

"You wouldn't believe it if I told you, but I traveled with such an unparalleled expert for a distance just now, and even participated in that damn Realm Assessment together!"

"You're lucky you weren't killed!"

"I…"

The disciples of Beast-taming Mountain exchanged a few words, their faces pale, and then left in a state of lingering fear.

Sole Sword Sect.

Main Peak Plaza.

Chu Xuanyi, Zhang Ling, and Nie Yuan were present.

"Young Master Chu, why hasn't Su Brother returned yet? Could something have happened to him?" Zhang Ling nervously twiddled her clothes and expressed her concern. "I heard there's a Saint at Beast-taming Mountain!"

"A Saint…" Chu Xuanyi shook his head. "Rest assured, the Saint from Beast-taming Mountain wouldn't pose any harm to Friend Su. However, he was supposed to have gone to settle matters with Beast-taming Mountain, right? It should have been just a few words to explain the situation. I'm also a bit puzzled why he hasn't returned yet."

Nie Yuan hesitated and said, "Perhaps, the people from Beast-taming Mountain are preventing Friend Su from leaving, or maybe… Hmm? What kind of creature is that? Why do I suddenly feel an incredibly terrifying aura?"

As he spoke, Nie Yuan saw a lightning-fast Thunder Lion rushing toward them from below the main peak. His expression changed.

Chu Xuanyi infused his eyes with saint qi and clearly saw the thunder lion and Su Zhan on its back. His expression immediately turned peculiar.

"That's Friend Su. Elder Nie, there's no need to be nervous."

"It's Friend Su! I told you, who else could control such a fearsome creature!" Nie Yuan visibly relaxed.

"Su Brother is back!" Zhang Ling's eyes brightened, and she stared at Su Zhan with widened eyes.

One minute later.

Su Zhan landed on the Sole Sword Sect's main peak plaza while riding the thunder lion. As soon as he dismounted, Chu Xuanyi and the others approached.

Chu Xuanyi carefully examined the thunder lion and quirked an eyebrow. "Friend Su, weren't you supposed to settle matters at Beast-taming Mountain? Why did you end up riding their guardian beast back?"

Su Zhan chuckled, "You wouldn't believe it if I told you. I initially wanted to borrow this thunder lion, but unexpectedly, the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch insisted on giving it to me!"

"In addition, he also gifted me a top-grade king-tier spirit beast ring! The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch is truly a magnanimous person!"
