Ninth Roc did not care whether or not Little Roc could accept his new identity yet, and turned to Sima You Yue, saying, "My son's identity is to be respected. That is why he cannot be a humans' contracted beast. According to the rules in our clan, we will forcefully break your contract and kill you to wash him clean of this humiliation. However, since my son is so protective of you, if you break the contract off yourself, I will get my clan to let go of this matter."

"No way!" Sima You Yue had yet to speak before Little Roar cried out. He left Ninth Roc's side and stood in front of Sima You Yue. He refused to let his mother hurt his own master.

"Child, you are our future king. Don't tell me that you want to be a human's contracted beast forever?" Ninth Roc looked at Little Roc as if she hated him for failing to live up to her expectations.

"I have no interest in becoming your king. I want to be with my master." Little Roc spoke, expressing his stance.

"Willful!" Ninth Roc chided, "Your identity has been decided since your birth. Look at your feathers, look at your colour. Golden feathers! Even the phoenixes do not have this colour. Is an identity like this something you can throw away just because you do not want it? For the sake of one human, you actually dare to something like this!"

"Although she is a human, she is my master. She is my family!" Little Roc said, "She was the one who accompanied me all these years. She was the one who watched me grow up. You want me to abandon her just to become king? Impossible!"

Little Roc was firm. The eyes with which he looked at Ninth Roc were unwavering. They wanted him to abandon his master? This was absolutely impossible!

Ninth Roc looked at Little Roc and no longer spoke to him. She turned instead to Sima You Yue who stood behind him and said, "I can see that you're a good person. As his master, do you not want to see him become better?"

Sima You Yue's mouth curled into a smile. This Ninth Roc was truly intelligent. Seeing her own son so obstinate, she did not confront him directly and chose to dig a hole starting from her.

She saw that Little Roc was watching her back and said, "As long Little Roc wants it, I'll support it. If he wants to be King, I'll let him be king. If he wants to be with me, I'll keep him with me."

Her voice was not loud, but it clearly showed her decision and position.

Little Roc turned around and looked at Sima You Yue. His round eyes were clearly moved. He knew that his master would not abandon him.

Ninth Roc's expression darkened. From what she saw, this was Sima You yue's excuse. He had just heard that Little Roc was unwilling to leave him. That must be why he said this.

"Human, it is because you are my child's master that I am so courteous. If you continue to disobey us, and you evoke the ire of our clan, you and your friends will suffer greatly!" Ninth Roc threatened.

As she spoke, she pointed a finger at Sima You Yue.

"You guys kidnapped my friends!" Sima You Yue turned around and saw the four winged rocs with their claws wrapped around Sima You Lin and the others. As long as they exerted any strength, everyone would be ripped into two.

The claws of the four winged rocs were powerful. She had once seen Little Roc rip a sea beast into two. At that time, he was merely a saint beast.

Once she thought of Sima You Lin and the other's predicament, her aura turned cold. 'If you dare hurt my family, I will definitely make you regret it!"

Ninth Roc looked at Sima You Yue and was slightly taken aback. Her eyes made her believe that she really meant it!

"If you are willing to break the contract that you have with my son, I will get them to release your friends." Ninth Roc said, "Actually, I'm doing this for your own good as well. If the elders and the others came, they would definitely exterminate you all. We have a secret method of breaking the contract without hurting my son. However, you will definitely die. I'm merely letting you live on my son's account to prevent him from being sad."

Sima You Yue looked at Ninth Roc and turned again to look at the hundred over four winged rocs in the sky, along with Sima Lie and the others in their claws. This was the first time she was truly troubled.

Did she really have to abandon Little Roc?

No way, Little Roc had long since become her family. How could she leave Little Roc behind?

However, if she were really to fight the four winged rocs, what would happen to Grandfather and the others?

"Didn't you say that I was your king? Then I order you to release everyone!" Little Roc said.

"You can only become our King if you leave her." The elders landed slowly and transformed into human-like appearances. They all appeared elderly and senior.

Wind Roc looked at Little Roc, saying, "We will never accept a king who is a contracted beast of a human. That's why you can only break your contract with her if you want the right to become our king."

"I have already said that I have no interest in becoming your king!" Little Roc said, "Since I don't' want to be King, just leave me alone and let me be with my master!"

"No way!" Wind Roc said, "You have the blood of the Great Roc flowing through your veins. You are destined to be our king. This is something you cannot change! Even if you do not want to, you still must! If you are unwilling to break your contract with her, then we will act personally! At that time, whether or not this human will keep his life will depend on his luck!"

"You guys are just being bullies!" Sima You Yue was incensed.

They were focusing on the point that Little Roc had the mark of the Great Roc's bloodline and wanted to make him their king. However, they didn't care what Little Roc wanted at all!

"So what if we are bullies? You are just a human who has just advanced to saint rank. What right do you have to be the master of a four wing roc? We're giving you one last choice. Do you want to break the contract or die with them?" Wind Roc's attitude was a lot more aggressive than Ninth Roc. He didn't look at her at all.

At the same time, he even exerted a bit of pressure, making Sima You Yue feel as if she was being pressured by a huge mountain. It was as if she couldn't breathe, and fresh blood even leaked from the side of her mouth.

He was really powerful!

She was always pretty resistant towards pressure, but right now, she was beginning to spit blood because of this pressure. How long had it been since something like that happened?!

Little Roc saw Sima You Yue injured and wanted to attack Wind Roc. However, he found himself unable to move. He called out anxiously, "If you dare to harm my master, I will commit suicide! I'll let you be unable to obtain the bloodline of the Great Roc forever!"

"You have to be able to commit suicide then!" Wind Roc said. Then, he turned to the ones beside him and ordered, "Go and use the secret method to break the contract between them."

"Elder…" Ninth Roc looked worriedly at Little Roc. She was afraid that he would really do what he threatened.

"He is currently too affected by the contract. Once he comes back to his senses, he will thank us." Wind Roc said, "Quickly!"

Sima You Yue's body was pressured to the point she was about to kneel down. When she heard what Wind Roc said, she glared viciously at him, saying, "Dream on!"

"Go."

"Yes, elder."

Two young men walked over to Sima You yue. One of them stretched forth a hand and grabbed on to Sima You Yue's head. Another hand was placed on the space between her eyebrows. Just as he touched that space, a golden light flashed out from her body and sent the one who had grabbed onto Sima You Yue flying.
