Chapter 712: Familiar Aura!

　　Little Nine, it’s me.

　　Without any sound, just this silent sentence was enough to shock the world.

　　The Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant’s pair of gray eyes seemed to crack at that moment, and a tinge of shock seemed to overflow from that pair of eyes.

　　The rainbow light that was tightening on Chu Liuyue suddenly stopped.

　　She looked up at it.

　　Some movement could finally be seen in that pair of eyes that seemed like a dried-up well—confusion, strangeness, shock, disbelief…

　　All the complicated feelings swarmed up one by one, and they intersected with each other!

　　At this time, a furry red figure silently climbed up the tree trunk and reached beside the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant’s red claw.

　　When it turned around, it coincidentally saw that Chu Liuyue was still trapped within that rainbow light.

　　Tuan Zi angrily grinded its teeth and harshly bit the red claw beside it.

　　The Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant felt the pain as it lowered its head and looked at Tuan Zi with a face of innocence.

　　Tuan Zi ferociously bared its teeth.

　　The Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant lowered its head in grievance.

　　Shangguan Wan—who originally planned to watch a good show—saw that the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant suddenly stopped. She turned around, followed its line of sight, and saw a… blood ferret beside the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant’s feet.

　　Shangguan Wan knitted her brows. Isn’t that Chu Liuyue’s fiend? Why did it barge in, and it’s actually so close to the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant? Is it not afraid of the bloodline suppression? And… it actually dared to bite the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant?!

　　“An egg hitting against a stone! You don’t know what’s good for you!” Shangguan Wan chuckled. As expected—like Master, like fiend. Chu Liuyue is one that doesn’t cherish her life, and her fiend is even more so. Just like this, the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant can easily crush it to death.

　　Detecting Shangguan Wan’s gaze as if she was watching a joke, Tuan Zi immediately glared at her in return harshly. What are you looking at! When I go crazy, I’ll even bite myself!

　　Chu Liuyue also saw Tuan Zi. When did it suddenly run over there?

　　Just as she was about to call Tuan Zi back, she saw that the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant had already waved its wings and made a rainbow ball wrap around Tuan Zi.

　　Tuan Zi gently floated upward. Then, it actually arrived on top of the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant’s head.

　　Chu Liuyue knitted her brows slightly and shook her head toward the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant. Little Nine, you can’t! Tuan Zi is also my fiend!

　　The Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant glanced at Chu Liuyue. Then, it directly opened its mouth and swallowed the rainbow ball.

　　After that, it slowly closed its eyes.

　　“Tuan Zi!” Chu Liuyue gasped. Little Nine actually ate Tuan Zi?!

　　Shangguan Wan was watching from the side and felt elated. She then looked at Chu Liuyue and revealed a pitiful expression. “Ms. Chu, this barrier is the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant’s territory, and normal people can’t come in. At the end of the day, your fiend is just a third-grade blood ferret. How can it endure the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant’s suppression? I think you should leave as soon as possible! If not… Even I might not be able to save you!”

　　Chu Liuyue looked at her coldly. Shangguan Wan is still Shangguan Wan. At this time, she can still feign concern. Does she not feel disgusted with herself?

　　Chu Liuyue took a deep breath in and realized that her connection with Tuan Zi hadn’t been cut off. This also meant that it was still alive!

　　She felt slightly at ease. Tuan Zi isn’t an ordinary fiend. Since it dared to take the initiative to come here, it definitely has the ability to protect itself. Why don’t I get Little Nine to spit Tuan Zi out after summoning Little Nine back?

　　Chu Liuyue calmly asked, “It seems like the Third Princess has the confidence to take this fiend in?”

　　Shangguan Wan’s eyes were filled with unblockable delight. This Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant clearly treats me differently. Maybe it has already chosen me as its master. I’m naturally different from others.

　　“Making an agreement with a legendary fiend—especially high-level fiends, or even legendary fiends—all depends on fate. Since this Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant chose me, then—”

　　Boom!

　　A frightening aura suddenly exploded from the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant.

　　A brilliant red light spread from its feathers, and it quickly healed the injuries that were caused by the lightning. At the same time, the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant suddenly flapped its wings.

　　It opened its wings, and its figure expanded, almost covering the sun. The next moment, it changed its direction and flew toward Shangguan Wan.

　　Shangguan Wan was nervous and excited. I-is it recognizing me as its master?!

　　Her heart beat wildly, and all the blood in her body rapidly flowed through as if it was about to burst out. Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant… It’ll be a legendary fiend when it breaks through! At that time, everyone in the Tianling Dynasty will know that I—Shangguan Wan—made an agreement with a legendary fiend! Shangguan Yue was so capable, but she only had a ninth-grade fiend. If this succeeds today… Everyone will know that I, Shangguan Wan, am a hundred times stronger than Shangguan Yue.

　　Countless scenes surfaced in Shangguan Wan’s mind, which excited her so much that her body trembled slightly.

　　She took a step forward. As long as I can make an agreement—

　　Whoosh!

　　The Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant leaned down and was close to Shangguan Wan as it flew past her head. At the same time, its sharp claws glided past and directly scratched Shangguan Wan’s arm.

　　Fresh blood poured out of the wound, and it was so deep that one could see her bones.

　　“Ah!” Shangguan Wan wasn’t prepared at all as she gasped in shock, and her body moved a few steps back uncontrollably.

　　She anxiously glanced at her arm, but she didn’t have the time to check her wounds.

　　This was because… Her black shield was stolen!

　　Shangguan Wan hurriedly looked up and saw that the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant was indeed tightly clutching onto the black shield.

　　She was about to chase when she felt an excruciating pain from her arm. Shangguan Wan looked down, and her eyes widened in horror.

　　She saw a few rays of rainbow light shining from the edges of the wound. That rainbow-colored light seemed brilliant and charming, but it had a terrifyingly high temperature.

　　When it swarmed back and forth, it seemed like fire was roasting it.

　　The more horrifying thing was that Shangguan Wan realized that her wound was expanding at an observable speed. The wound—which was originally so deep that one could see the bones—was continuously being ripped open by the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant’s strength.

　　The excruciating pain came over, and it hurt Shangguan Wan so much that her mind went blank and almost made her faint.

　　“Ah!” She yelled at the top of her lungs, and she collapsed on the ground, huddling into a ball from the extreme pain. “No! No!”

　　A muddled moan came out from her mouth with deep horror.

　　Nobody knew that Shangguan Wan’s force was currently being crazily absorbed.

　　That rainbow light had already spread to her shoulders.

　　From afar, her shoulders were already rotten, and it looked terrifying.

　　Chu Liuyue looked at her and squinted her eyes. The Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant’s previous impact combined the strength from the lightning and its own. Shangguan Wan naturally can’t take it.

　　She looked up at the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant that was flying in the sky. Little Nine is targeting Shangguan Wan like this… Could it have recalled something?

　　At this point, the Nine-Colored Heavenly Pheasant suddenly let out a clear shout.

　　Shoo!

　　The clear and loud shrill reverberated throughout the area, and a rainbow feather on its wing suddenly became red.

　　Chu Liuyue felt that something seemed to be moving in her body. After a moment, shock flashed across her eyes. That’s Tuan Zi’s aura!
