Chapter 675: Despite Having a Beast, I'm No Beast Cultivator

The male cultivator gestured for Hui to join him on the back of his beast, an overgrown wolf thing with armored plates in its fur and a spiked tail. The wolf swished its tail and lowered its head as he approached. Instinctively, Hui offered it his hand to sniff. The wolf sniffed for a moment, then lowered its head again, this time in assent.

The beast cultivator raised his brows. I see you have some experience as a beast cultivator. Most fools simply jump directly on his back.

Ah? Not at all. Its just that I have some experience with pe Huis eyes jumped to the wolf, and he quickly adjusted his words, rescinding the ts on the tip of his tongue. powerful beasts.

Thats right. You have a spirit beast, after all, the male cultivator said, nodding.

Mmm. Do I have Zhubi, or does Zhubi have me? Hui nodded at the cultivator. Your name?

Wen Guo, the man said. Youre that Gui Hui, no? Our Tier Master was very taken with you at the selection.

Oh? Hui asked, honestly surprised. I wasnt expecting anyone to remember me from that. Ah, its true that they all showed up when I arrivedall the Tier Mastersso I suppose I cant be too surprised that one or two of them remembered me.

Wen Guo nodded. Not many cultivators choose to walk the thorny path of cultivating beasts, since its so hard to ascend. You must ascend alongside your beast, after all, and ensuring a single cultivators ascension is difficult, much less ones ascension and their beasts. Not that its impossible to ascend as a beast cultivator, but to willingly take on double the difficulty well, Im trying to say, not many choose such a thing.

Ah yes, Hui said. Im cheating a bit. Im not a true beast cultivator, not that I would ever leave Zhubi behind which, now that I think about it, might make me a true beast cultivator. Plus, Zhubis a dragonling, which almost ensures his

Hold on! Black Dragon failed in her ascension and ended up locked in the Underworld, in a state of undeath! Ahh! I was carelessly considering Zhubis ascension as a sure thing, but even his massively powerful mother failed in her first attempt at ascension. Does she have a second chance? Or is she stuck in the Night Market until she lives out her lifespan?

Eh, come to think of it, how on earth is Black Dragon still around? A Wandering Immortal should have an extremely short lifespan, but shes okay, shes undead. She did say she only clung to life until she could give birth, after all. So her lifespan is over. But undead can still cultivateThis chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Senior Black Dragons situation is very unique. I probably shouldnt base anything off her. In any case, I think she said she was trapped though, well, I dont know I take anyone in the Underworlds words at face value. Even the reaper wont admit she wants to step on me, and shes probably the most straightforward of the lot.

The sensation of a boot in his back sent him stumbling forward. Hui turned, but no one stood behind him.

I need to befriend more friendly Seniors. Like Fen Long. Fen Long has never done anything horrible to me.

Nearly as soon as he thought it, Hui braced himself. Oh shit, now Ive done it. Hell surely teleport in just to prove me wrong any second now!

Any second

Any second

Hui sighed deeply, staring into the distance once more. Senior, I wish I could take your advice, but youre several decades too late. From the moment I entered this world, I was involved in the affairs of those far above me. My Master ascended. The Bai Clan was full of far more powerful cultivators at the time. I was drawn into Fen Long and Chen Wuyas affairs, not to mention the Four Evils and the whole mess with All Heavens

He looked at Wen Guo. For someone who pointed a spear at me moments ago, youre certainly friendly.

Wen Guo shrugged. If the Tier Master and Lao Hu approve of you, who am I to disapprove?

Hui raised his eyebrows. Thats surprisingly reasonable.

Im a simple man, Wen Guo said.

Fair enough. Im not going to argue when it makes my life simpler. A simple man, indeed! I can respect a simple man.

Er, though, if Senior Tseng Caihong is somehow listening, then I dont respect these traitors! No respect at all!

He looked at Wen Guo. Elder Brother, if I could be so bold, what has Tseng Caihong stolen from you?

Wen Guos face twisted. He shook his head. That filth. We beast cultivators wouldnt oppose her so much if she hadnt taken our Sacred Beast! If only she hadnt taken it, wed have the strength to stand against her, and we wouldnt be completely ignored in every single Tiers Meeting!

Ah, well, Elder Brother told me why she took your Sacred Beast in the same breath as you bemoaned her taking it. If it gave you the power to oppose her, then naturally shed take it. Once its gone, it doesnt matter if you oppose her or not. You lack the power to have that right!

Though it doesnt seem to have kept you from trying. I do sympathize. Ive been there. So weak as to have no right to oppose, yet determined to oppose nonetheless still, I cant sympathize too hard. These beast cultivators are, how to say it, a little dull? Not the sharpest tools in the shed? Point is, they arent exactly tactical geniuses. If I hook my horse to this wagon, the only place Im going is nowhere fast.

I wouldnt mind encouraging them to attack as a distraction, but yeah. Ill sympathize from a distance.

That Sacred Beast, though. If Tseng Caihong stole it, does that mean it actually possesses power to defeat Tseng Caihong? Its something worth looking into.

and on the other hand, Tseng Caihong stole Zhubi, whos a sweet cinnamon roll who couldnt do any harm. Im really starting to wonder if she hasnt taken on pet thief as a side gig.

That foul Tseng Caihong, Wen Guo muttered.

Pet thief, Hui muttered back.

Wen Guo nodded in approval. Following the rest of the beast cultivators, they chased the Tier Master back to the heart of the realm.
