Otherworldly-Cultivator

When Yang Hao and the others were fighting against the blackscale serpent beast, the two men felt tired after they had walked for a long time, but they could never leave their spot, even though the exit was right in front of them, and they felt like they were in an endless maze.

"Damn it! How could that guy do such a thing?" Ruan Dongcheng asked in an angry tone. "Look at that; the road in front of us is wide open, but we seem to have been walking in place since earlier."

"Hmm?" Wu Laochen raised his eyebrows and thought. "Apparently, that person installed a misleading formation in this place, and we will never be able to destroy it with our current strength, so we can never pass through this area."

"So, what should we do now?"

"There's nothing we can do; even our fathers may not be able to break this formation." Wu Laochen then sat on the ground. "Forget it; we'll only be wasting our energy if we keep going, and we can only wait for that person to let us go."

"Tch!" Ruan Dongchen gritted his teeth as he sat beside his friend, but his gaze was fixed on the wide road in front of them. "Do you think we should contact our parents? This area is not far from our region, so they could send people here to free us from this damn formation."

"You're right; it would be better if we contacted them. Even if they can't free us, we can ask them to capture those people."

The two men immediately took out their communication devices, but Xiao Diqiu was certainly not stupid enough to let them contact their parents, and she snatched their communication devices before destroying them.

"Bastard!" Ruan Dongcheng furiously shouted. "Come out! Face me if you dare, coward! I- Guah!"

Ruan Dongcheng had no time to finish his words, but an earth stalagmite suddenly came out of the ground and slammed into his stomach, which sent him flying backwards quite a distance.

"Dongcheng!" Wu Laochen shouted as he stood up and ran towards him, but two pieces of earth immediately sealed his feet, rendering him unable to move. "Damn it!

"Guah!" A sizable rock suddenly struck Ruan Dongcheng as he was just standing up, causing him to stagger backward before falling again.

At first, Xiao Diqiu didn't want to do anything to them, but she became furious once Ruan Dongcheng called her a coward, so she intended to teach him a lesson.

Both men were shocked as soon as Xiao Diqiu showed herself to them, especially since she was a woman, but her body was much bigger and more muscular than theirs, and Ruan Dongcheng asked her by shouting. "Who are you? Why are you doing this to us?"

"What an ignorant brat!" Xiao Diqiu cursed as she waved her hands, and several pieces of earth bound Ruan Dongcheng's hands and feet. "You sure have guts! No one has ever dared to call me a coward before, and you are the first to dare do so! At first, I just wanted to toy with you two because you guys are just weak cockroaches, but you have succeeded in making me angry, so you have to bear my anger."

"You- Mhn!" Ruan Dongcheng wanted to curse at her, but Xiao Diqiu immediately sealed his mouth with a lump of earth. 'This bitch! I am the young master of the Ruan Clan, and no one has ever dared to do this to me before, but she humiliated me now!'

Xiao Diqiu gave a faint grin before covering her right hand with earth, and she showed it to Ruan Dongcheng. "Don't worry, I won't kill you, but you will take a long time to recover."

'Gah!' Ruan Dongcheng instantly grimaced in pain when Xiao Diqiu punched his abdomen, but she didn't stop there, and she vented her anger by punching him again and again, which made his whole body covered in bruises. Even his face became difficult to recognize because it was swollen like a pig.

Wu Laochen gulped hard at the sight of Xiao Diqiu beating his friend, and his body also seemed to tremble in fear. 'Tch! Fortunately, I didn't say anything about that woman, or else she would have beaten me up like Dongcheng.'

After she was satisfied with venting her anger, Xiao Diqiu immediately let go of Ruan Dongcheng, who had lost consciousness due to the extreme pain from her attacks, and she then turned to Wu Laochen with an evil smirk, causing him to shudder. "Do you also want to challenge me?"

"No! I don't dare do it, Senior!" Wu Laochen replied as he shook his head vigorously. "Please, let me go, and I will take my friend back to our sect for treatment, or he will die."

"Humph!" Xiao Diqiu snorted softly and released Wu Laochen, who immediately ran over to help Ruan Dongcheng, but she then released her aura to provide some deterrence to him. "Remember well, those guys are under my protection, and I will go to the Wu and Ruan Clans to destroy both clans if you and that weak cockroach dare touch them."

*Gulp*

Even though their clan was very strong, Wu Laochen was aware that Xiao Diqiu was much stronger than his parents or grandparents. "I... I know, Senior. We... we won't do anything to them."

"Get lost!" Wu Laochen immediately took out his flying artifact and took Ruan Dongcheng to ride it, and he flew it away from that place, but he didn't realize that Xiao Diqiu shot her qi into their bodies. "If they still dare to think about disturbing Yudie and the others, I will turn them into earthen statues."

After that, Xiao Diqiu flew into the sky to monitor Yang Hao and the others, and she saw that Huo Rui had already succeeded in defeating the earth-rank blackscale serpent.

However, Huo Rui didn't kill the beast and only paralyzed it because they needed one alive, and she then helped Yang Hao and the three women repel the other beasts.

Meanwhile, Shou Huang was standing not far from Di Jing, but she felt dizzy thinking about how to approach her, especially since she kept putting on a sullen look. 'Tch! This woman is troublesome! She seems to rarely socialize with other people, so her attitude has become like this now.'

"Can you teach me your beast-taming technique?" Di Jing's sudden question startled Shou Huang, and he gave her a bewildered look. Even though Di Jing felt uncomfortable with his presence, she remembered Sun Xing'er's words about his race, especially about their beast-taming technique, so she decided to talk to him. "I have never learned any beast-taming techniques before, and I managed to tame Hui Ling and the others on a whim."

Shou Huang nodded in understanding to Di Jing. "That means you have an innate ability related to beast taming, which makes you a natural beast tamer. Even in my race, there aren't many who can do that, and we have to work hard to tame our beasts."

"I see." Di Jing then asked him again. "Is the beast-taming technique difficult to learn?"

Shou Huang responded by shaking his head. "Beast-taming technique is not difficult to learn, but it is difficult to gain the trust of the beasts. Actually, we can tame them by force, but they will never be truly loyal to us, so we also have to build a relationship with them. However, I don't think it's a big deal for you, especially since you can already tame some beasts without that technique."

"What are the advantages to learning it?"

'Why did she suddenly become talkative? But this is good, and I can get closer to her faster if she opens herself up like this.' Shou Huang then explained to Di Jing some of the advantages of being a beast tamer, and he also told her the benefits of the beast taming technique. "Do you want to learn my technique?"

"Are you willing to teach me?" Instead, Di Jing asked him back, but Shou Huang could see the eagerness in her eyes.

"Yes." Shou Huang replied to Di Jing as he nodded. "Actually, our beast taming technique is not a special technique, and my ancestors never forbade us from sharing it with other beast tamers. However, not everyone has the talent to become a beast tamer, so we only share it with people who have the qualifications to do so. If you want to learn it, then I will impart it to you, and I will guide you to learn it."

"Please teach me, so I can maximize my abilities as a beast tamer." Di Jing said that with sparkling eyes, as she was truly eager to become an excellent beast tamer.

"All right." Shou Huang then approached Di Jing and touched her forehead, and he shared his beast-taming technique with her, which made her overjoyed. "Let's sit; I will guide you from the basics so you can master everything more quickly."

Di Jing nodded in agreement and immediately sat down on the ground, and Shou Huang also sat in front of her while explaining how to learn the technique from the very basics. 'This girl! She is so interested in beast taming, and she will probably become the best beast tamer in the future.
