Beauty and the Bodyguard

Lin Yi felt that it was a little risky, but he still nodded after seeing the look on Qiao hongcai's face."Alright then. There's not much time left. Hurry up and do it. I'll keep a lookout for you. But Xiao ran doesn't have to take the risk with us. You can go first."

"Boss, don't underestimate me. I'm here as long as you guys are here." Xiao ran immediately declared.

Qiao hongcai was stunned and his face couldn't help but change. He quickly waved his hand and said,"Boss, Xiao ran, this is my own business. I deserve to risk my life, but it's not right for you two to be involved. If something happens to you, I'll never be at ease for the rest of my life. You'd better leave!"

Lin Yi patted him on the back and smiled,"Just by yourself, what are the chances of you successfully surviving? Alright, stop wasting time and hurry up!"

Qiao hongcai looked deeply at the two of them and didn't waste any more time. He immediately turned his head and pounced on the young ghost-eyed Golden Eagle. The adult ghost-eyed Golden Eagle might come back at any time, and if he couldn't tame it before then, everything would be in vain.

To tame a spirit beast, there were two minimum requirements. One was to have a spirit pet talisman of the corresponding grade. The other was that the captor had to personally injure and subdue the spirit beast and obtain its blood.

This ghost-eyed Golden Eagle was at the early phase of Sky Class, but if they really were to fight, even a Sky Class mid phase might not be able to beat it. It was a bird of prey, too, and had a natural advantage in the air.

Qiao hongcai was an early Foundation Stage practitioner, after all. He was more than enough to deal with the Cub, but the prerequisite was that the Cub didn't run away. Otherwise, if it really flew into the air, he and Lin Yi wouldn't be able to do anything.

It was a good thing that the Cub didn't try to run away from them despite the shrieking from the start. It stayed in its nest, staring at the group. Even when Qiao Hong charged at it, it didn't run away. Instead, it used its undeveloped sharp claws to turn around and grab at them.

Even Qiao hongcai, an early Foundation establishment expert, had been left with several deep claw marks that revealed his bones. Its fierce combat power was evident.

"Boss, is it possible that this Cub still can't fly? otherwise, why isn't it running away?" Xiao ran, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but wonder.

The more powerful a spirit beast was, the longer it would take for it to mature. Although the ghost-eyed Golden Eagle wasn't small and was already at the early stage of the heaven rank, there was still a long time before it reached adulthood. It was normal for it to not be able to fly at this time.

"Maybe," Lin Yi said,"but the ghost-eyed Golden Eagle isn't just strong, it's also very cunning. I feel like this young one has bad intentions."

"No way. You're saying that this little fellow didn't escape in a hurry and is deliberately trying to catch us and wait for the mature ghost-eyed Golden Eagle to return?" Xiao ran looked as if he had seen a ghost.

"Nothing is impossible. A spirit beast of this level is already very intelligent. Their schemes and intrigues are no less than that of humans. You must not underestimate them." Lin Yi said.

The ghost-eyed Golden Eagle and the Nine-Tailed cloud piercing leopard that almost killed him in the newbie test-both of them were terrifying. It wasn't without reason that Lin Yi was speculating about this Cub.

Putting everything else aside, this young bird had been calling out all this while. Perhaps it had some sort of telepathic connection with its parents, and the adult ghost-eyed Golden Eagle was probably already on its way back.

While the two were talking, Qiao hongcai had successfully subdued the Cub. For this, he did not hesitate to pay the price of a dozen claw marks all over his body. After all, time was limited, and every second he stayed here meant an additional second of danger. In comparison, paying the price of only a few injuries was already a good deal.

Mixing the Cub with his own blood, he smeared it on the spiritual pet talisman, and then stuck it on the Cub's forehead. Whether this adventure would succeed or fail, it would all depend on this one move.

Although in theory, a low-level spirit pet talisman could at most tame a spirit beast at the full circle of the heaven rank, this was only in theory. The higher the rank of the spirit beast, the more difficult it was to tame, and the lower the success rate. This was a principle that had never changed.

It was almost certain that a low-level spirit pet talisman could tame a spirit beast without a rank or a yellow rank. However, when it came to the sky rank, the success rate would fall below forty percent. No matter how well prepared they were, it would still depend on luck whether they could succeed.

The reason why spirit pet talismans could be used to tame spirit beasts was basically equivalent to brainwashing. Once the spirit pet had successfully recognized its master, a spiritual connection would be established between the spirit pet and the master, and the spirit beast would follow its orders.

Even if other people, including high-level spirit beasts, could kill it, they would not be able to make it yield. Even the pressure between the ranks of spirit beasts would lose its effect.

This was the advantage of a spirit pet talisman, but the disadvantage was that it would bring a lot of mental burden to the master. After all, when brainwashing the spirit pet, the master himself would also suffer side effects. Moreover, this kind of mental connection existed for a long time. If two more spirit pets came, the master was likely to have a mental breakdown.

In addition, the spirit pets that were tamed by the spirit pet talisman would have their spirituality wiped out to a certain extent, so their true strength was slightly inferior to wild spirit pets.

Lin Yi and Xiao ran waited anxiously for half an incense's time before Qiao hongcai let out a long breath. "It's done,"

The Cub was completely unconscious by now, but Lin Yi and Xiao ran could clearly feel that the fierce and untamed aura was gone, replaced by a tamed aura unique to spirit pets.

Although this was a bit of a pity, it was also an unavoidable matter. There were gains and losses.

"They're here!" Just as the three were about to leave, Lin Yi's eyelid twitched. The sky turned dark, and a huge shadow covered his head.

In the end, he still couldn't escape this calamity. The adult ghost-eyed golden Condor had returned!

Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai were stunned when they sensed the Overlord's powerful aura. With a casual flap of its wings, countless giant trees were snapped in half. What a terrifying aura!

"You two, hurry up and leave. I'll take the Cubs. Split up, hurry!" Lin Yi ordered in a hurry.

If he brought the Cub with him, it would attract the ghost-eyed Golden Eagle's attention. Xiao ran and the other wouldn't be in too much danger. As for himself, with the protection of the great God, the ghost thing, his life and safety were naturally not a problem.

Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai were stunned at the same time. Touching the Cubs at this time was equivalent to playing with their lives. According to Qiao hongcai's original idea, they didn't need to care about the Cubs at all, and the three of them could just run away quickly. (To be continued.)
