How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 407 - 402 Red Flame King Takes Action
Chapter 407: Chapter 402 Red Flame King Takes Action
Chapter 407 -402 Red Flame King Takes Action
Seeing Chen Yu actually walk out, Guardian Wei and the other high-ranking officials all began to laugh inwardly.
Young people are always like this, a little praise and they think themselves unbeatable, not taking others seriously; just a jeer from an enemy, and they can’t swallow their pride, standing out.
It is known that in the entire Beiyuan Region, when it comes to taming ability, the Mantu Tribe is second to none, even claiming to be the best without any objections from others.
Perhaps Chen Yu has made great progress nowadays, but this time the competition is beast fighting, and pitted against the genius Beast Tamer of the Mantu Tribe, how could Chen Yu possibly have a chance of winning?
The moment Chen Yu stood up, other high-ranking officials had already envisioned scenes of Chen Yu’s defeat.
When that time comes, not only will Chen Yu have to take the corresponding responsibility, but he might also be demoted.
In Qianshan City, there is a woman with a graceful figure and transcendent beauty, standing out like a peony after the rain.
Yet at this moment, this woman’s gaze was fixed on one person.
“Brother Yu?”
The woman watched Chen Yu’s broad figure, feeling both excited and worried in her heart.
“Xueqing, don’t be fooled by him; he’s young and has become the Deputy Commander here, thinking himself great to accept Man Rong’s challenge. I am sure he’ll lose all three matches and be utterly humiliated,”
A man pursuing her spoke confidentally.
“Don’t talk about him like that.”
Mu Xueqing shot a cold glance at the man.
Mu Xueqing, the woman Chen Yu adored when they were young, but due to various reasons, they were not meant to be together.
Mu Xueqing knew that Chen Yu was not someone to act impulsively.
Among those captives, there were many members of the Yunyue Sect and a few were Chen Yu’s fellow disciples; Chen Yu naturally wouldn’t ignore them and watch indifferently.
However, Mu Xueqing was not optimistic about Chen Yu’s chances and was somewhat worried.
Across Qianshan City.
Everyone’s eyes brightened, somewhat surprised, but then they all laughed upon seeing Chen Yu.
“Are you the new Deputy Commander?”
Man Rong sat on a circular seat, looking down at Chen Yu as if a superior sizing up an inferior.
In his view, Chen Yu was younger than himself and he had never heard of this person before.
But Chen Yu, participating in his first battle and directly serving as a Deputy Commander, aroused Man Rong’s curiosity. Was Chen Yu, like himself, also a descendant of some great figure?
“Let’s start quickly.”
Chen Yu did not respond to Man Rong.
“Oh? So impatient?”
Man Rong grew somewhat interested, as the other beast tamers he had faced were always timid and cautious.
“I suppose you don’t know the rules yet, do you? If you win the beast fight, I’ll release a captive, and I’ll gift you a Spirit Pet. If you lose, you must also give your Spirit Pet to me,”
Man Rong said with a smile.
If it were just a simple beast fight without any stakes, that would be far too boring.
“Alright.”
Chen Yu agreed immediately.
“What’s the cultivation realm of your Spirit Pet?”
Man Rong asked.
In beast fighting, the fairness comes when the Spirit Pets are of the same cultivation realm.
“Late Innate!”
Chen Yu said blandly.
However, the surrounding high-ranking officials from Qianshan City were taken aback.
Among them, some had cultivation realms only at the Early Innate or Innate Middle Stage.
“Who would have thought this young man has a Late Innate Spirit Pet; perhaps those rumors from Chu Country about Chen Yu relying on his Spirit Pet to win battles are true.”
“That’s right, with a Late Innate Spirit Pet, he could indeed defeat general elders.”
A few secretly communicated through transmitted messages, but their hearts had grown a trace more cautious and fearful towards Chen Yu.
“Good, a Late Innate beast fight.”
Man Rong’s spirit perked up a bit, and after pondering for a moment, he picked up a storage bag beside him and gently slapped it.
Accompanied by a mist, a small leopard surged out.
The leopard was dark yellow with beautiful and unusual golden stripes on its skin, gold teeth, and claws, exuding a regal and kingly aura.
“This is one of the young master’s ‘Yellow Jacket Leopards,’ Late Innate,”
Man Rong said with a smile.
“Yellow Jacket Leopard, small in size, but incredibly fast and fiercely attacking. Its teeth and claws have a paralyzing effect, ranking among the very top in the demon beast category. Moreover, Man Rong’s Yellow Jacket Leopard is obviously a mutated species… extraordinary.”
Inside Qianshan City, a Beast Tamer stroked his beard, looked towards Chen Yu, and shook his head.
The Mantu Tribe’s method of cultivating Spirit Pets was already the best in the Beiyuan, and with this mutated Yellow Jacket Leopard, an ordinary one could hardly withstand five moves against it.
Countless eyes stared at Chen Yu, wanting to see what Spirit Pet he would use to respond.
“I’ll leave it to you.”
Chen Yu’s expression was unchanging as he suddenly extended his hand.
“What’s that?”
“Where’s Chen Yu’s Spirit Pet?”
Many were surprised because they couldn’t see anything.
But those strong in the Qi Transformation Realm could still catch some traces.
They saw a dark blue light suddenly dart from Chen Yu’s hand, vanishing in a flash as it directly rushed at the Yellow Jacket Leopard.
On the golden circular seat, the formerly lazy-looking Man Rong’s expression suddenly tensed up, and he straightened his posture.
“Iron Moon Strange Insect, and it’s a mutated species; looking at the color, the toxin must be extremely potent.”
Man Rong recognized Chen Yu’s Spirit Pet at a glance, analyzing it expertly, clearly knowledgeable in the field.
The proud Yellow Jacket Leopard tensed immediately and bolted swiftly.
Whiz!
In the forest, a yellow lightning bolt seemed to flash by like the wind, incredibly fast.
However, the onlookers saw the Yellow Jacket Leopard’s panicked expression, which even showed a hint of fear.
“This Iron Moon Strange Insect is so fast, indeed not an ordinary grade.”
Man Rong inwardly praised, his eyes fixated on the Iron Moon Strange Insect, showing a fervent interest.
He loved Spirit Pets, especially unique mutated species.
Sizzle!
The Iron Moon Strange Insect kept close on the tail of the Yellow Jacket Leopard, and at one moment bit into its fur, then burrowed into the body of the Yellow Jacket Leopard.
Suddenly, the Yellow Jacket Leopard rolled on the ground, howling in pain.
“Stop, you’ve won.”
Man Rong immediately shouted.
Swoosh!
A dark blue light spot pierced through the neck of the Yellow Jacket Leopard and returned to Chen Yu’s hand.
The Yellow Jacket Leopard weakly returned to Man Rong’s side, its wound flowing with dark-red-blue blood, and blood kept spurting from its mouth.
“Such strong poison.”
After a quick check, Man Rong knew that the Yellow Jacket Leopard was beyond saving and destined to die.
He let it be, and after a short while, the Yellow Jacket Leopard fell to the ground, dead.
Silence fell over both sides.
The process and outcome of this beast fight were beyond everyone’s expectations.
Not only had Man Rong lost, but his Spirit Pet, the Yellow Jacket Leopard, had died!
Those of lower status could not even comprehend what had happened.
“This…”
Guardian Wei looked stunned, feeling the urge to curse.
He wanted to curse Man Rong, who had easily dealt with their own Beast Tamer in the beast fight, but now he was utterly defeated by Chen Yu.
Soon, there erupted a cheer within Qianshan City.
“We won!”
“The Deputy Commander has defeated Man Rong.”
Not far away, a Beast Tamer with an awkward expression coughed dryly, “The Deputy Commander’s Spirit Pet is very strong, which is why he won so smoothly. If the strength of their Spirit Pets had been similar, Man Rong could easily have won.”
In the crowd, Mu Xueqing also showed a relieved and joyful smile.
“The second round!”
Far away, Man Rong’s expression became serious, and he began appraising Chen Yu as an equal.
Chen Yu nodded his head.
“Go!”
Man Rong took out another pet bag and released the Spirit Pet inside.
An object the size of a human head and deep blue in color rolled out.
The next moment, the deep-blue sphere developed several thin cracks and unfolded, transforming into a large insect covered in dark blue scale armor.
“This is a ‘Blue Scale Copper Worm,’ a creature capable of spraying poison mist. When facing powerful enemies, it can curl into a virtually impregnable sphere. This Blue Scale Copper Worm of Man Rong’s is a mutated variety, apparently with a stronger toxin than the regular Blue Scale Copper Worms.”
A Beast Tamer from Qianshan City, eyes sparkling, remarked.
“The characteristics of this Blue Scale Copper Worm nearly completely counter Chen Yu’s Iron Moon Strange Insect.”
“Alas, Man Rong has many Spirit Pets to choose from.”
A few knowledgeable individuals about beast pets discussed.
Chen Yu also fell into deep thought, admitting he had underestimated Man Rong.
He initially thought the Iron Moon Strange Insect alone could secure three consecutive victories.
But this Man Rong, the favorite grandson of the Mantu Tribe’s Clan Leader, possessed a variety of peculiar Spirit Pets.
Now, the Blue Scale Copper Worm that Man Rong brought out seemed to counter the Iron Moon Strange Insect.
“Come on, that Iron Moon Strange Insect must be the strongest Spirit Pet you have,” Man Rong said with a low chuckle.
Once he won, the Iron Moon Strange Insect would be his.
Chen Yu shook his head and patted the pet bag on his body.
Accompanied by a burst of dust, an odd creature that was entirely dark red appeared beside him.
At that moment, the Red Flame King was in the middle of a yawn, but suddenly felt something was amiss. Upon opening its eyes, it saw thousands of people staring at it.
The Red Flame King became angry instantly, transmitting its thoughts: “Little fella, what’s going on? Are you showing me off to these bumpkins?”
“Right now, I’m fighting this man with beasts, and you’re also my Spirit Pet. Help me settle this.”
Chen Yu transmitted his thoughts.
Spirit Pet? The Red Flame King felt very annoyed upon hearing these three words, glaring fiercely at Chen Yu.
“What is this thing?”
“What kind of lazy, listless demon beast is this? It doesn’t look impressive at all.”
Many people stared at the Red Flame King in puzzlement, not optimistic about it.
In fact, the Red Flame King had always concealed its lineage and subdued its aura to avoid drawing attention, deliberately appearing that way.
On the field, a few top fighters and some Beast Tamers were scrutinizing the Red Flame King, their eyes shining brightly.
“Fire Scale Beast!”
Man Rong immediately stood up, staring at the Red Flame King as if a hungry robber had spotted a stunning beauty.
The Fire Scale Beast, a rare ancient beast with the bloodline of the Holy Beast Qilin.
Although the Fire Scale Beast before them looked somewhat malnourished, what mattered was the Qilin bloodline in its body.
And Man Rong believed that under his taming, this Fire Scale Beast would transform from a cocoon into a butterfly, becoming one of the most formidable ancient beasts.
“Kid, let me make you an offer. Give me this Spirit Pet, and I’ll immediately release all the captives.”
Man Rong seemed to have forgotten about the beast fight, earnestly speaking.
“Even if I’m willing to trade, this Fire Scale Beast might not agree,” Chen Yu replied with a smile.
“Impossible. As long as you agree, I can tame it completely.”
Man Rong frowned, annoyed that Chen Yu dared to doubt his skills.
He decided to show off some skills right there to surprise Chen Yu.
Immediately, Man Rong took out a white pill from his storage bag, finely patterned and emitting a peculiar fragrance.
The dark green serpent by his side, along with many surrounding Spirit Pet mounts, all perked up, their eyes fixed on the pill in Man Rong’s hand.
“Come, Fire Scale Beast, would you like to eat?”
Man Rong smiled as he addressed the Fire Scale Beast.
The Red Flame King’s face turned as black as coal, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and rage burned within.
“Chen Yu, I agree with you.”
