"Eh..."
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion exclaid in surprise, "You’ve heard of the Transformation Grass?"
Yan Rufeng smiled but said nothing.
"Human boy, why aren’t you speaking?"
"Lion King, I have heard of the Transformation Grass, but it’s not on Cangmang Star."
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion hurriedly asked, "Then where is it?"
Yan Rufeng clasped one hand behind his back, and said casually, "The Immortal Realm, Dragon Valley."
"What?"
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion slumped to the ground, feeling despondent.
"The Immortal Realm is an unreachable place. Even after thousands of years of cultivation, few of us Demon Beasts can ascend there. It seems transformation is hopeless."
Yan Rufeng smiled faintly.
"Lion King, don’t lose heart. I can take you to the Immortal Realm, you know!"
"Ha ha!"
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion’s laughter was cold and eerie.
"Boy, stop deceiving . If you could take to the Immortal Realm, why are you still here?"
Yan Rufeng said calmly, "Lion King, you’ll only have one chance. If you don’t believe , I’ll leave now."
Yan Rufeng grabbed Yi Mu’s hand and turned to leave.
"Wait!"
Yan Rufeng’s lips curled up in a mischievous smile.
"Lion King, do you have sothing else?"
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion spoke slowly, "Human boy, can you really take to the Immortal Realm?"
Yan Rufeng spoke softly, "Why should I take you to the Immortal Realm?"
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion thought for a long ti but couldn’t co up with an answer.
Seeing this, Yan Rufeng smiled and said, "Lion King, if you truly want to go to the Immortal Realm, there’s only one way."
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion perked up, "What way?"
Yan Rufeng said seriously, "Swear allegiance to ."
"Roar, howwwl!"
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion was furious and roared, "Despised human, you want to swear allegiance to you? Dream on!"
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion opened its huge maw, rushing in to swallow Yan Rufeng at once.
"Ah..."
Yi Mu closed his eyes in fright.
Yan Rufeng remained calm. A light appeared, and sothing appeared in his hand. The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion imdiately stopped in its tracks and exclaid, "Seven-Star Fushen!"
Yan Rufeng waved his hand and said, "Lion King, to be precise, this is a Nine-Star Fushen."
"Nine-Star Fushen?"
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion tilted its head and gazed at the Nine-Star Fushen in Yan Rufeng’s hand, eyes full of doubt.
The Seven-Star Fushen had been collected in Rufeng’s Spiritual Grass Garden within the Purple Mansion and now cultivated into a garden full of Nine-Star Fushens with nine diamond-shaped leaves each.
Discovering that Demon Beasts, after consuming the Seven-Star Fushen, could enhance their Divine Soul and even speak human language, Yan Rufeng had begun to ponder.
"Now that the Seven-Star Fushen has been cultivated into the Nine-Star Fushen, I’m curious if consuming it will make Demon Beasts as intelligent as Demon Beasts..."
Yan Rufeng smiled calmly.
"Lion King, if you swear allegiance to , this Nine-Star Fushen is yours. Of course, with your strength, you could also rob it from my hand. But as for going to Dragon Valley in the Immortal Realm, forget it."
After a mont, the Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion said, "Human boy, I can already speak. This Nine-Star Fushen likely has no use for anymore. You may leave. I won’t swear allegiance to a human!"
Yan Rufeng smiled faintly.
"Lion King, what if I told you that after consuming this Nine-Star Fushen, you would beco even more intelligent, would you still consu it?"
This ti, the Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion was no longer calm, and said, "I admit we Demon Beasts are not as cunning as you humans. But even if consuming the Nine-Star Fushen would make smarter, I still wouldn’t swear allegiance to you."
"Ha ha..."
Yan Rufeng laughed heartily, "Lion King, I will now give you the Nine-Star Fushen. After you consu it, you can decide whether to swear allegiance to or not."
With a gentle wave, the dazzling Nine-Star Fushen floated in front of the Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion.
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion didn’t hesitate and swallowed the Nine-Star Fushen in an instant.
After a quarter-hour, Yan Rufeng said slowly, "Lion King, do you think it’s necessary to swear allegiance to now?"
"Ha ha..."
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion laughed up to the sky and said, "Human boy, this swearing allegiance isn’t as simple as rely swearing allegiance, right?"
Yan Rufeng replied calmly, "Lion King, you’re right. What you think is exactly what I intend. You can refuse, but I’m afraid your Demon Beast clan won’t get such an opportunity again."
After a long while, the Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion finally said, "I will swear allegiance to you, but I have a condition!"
Yan Rufeng asked, "What condition? Feel free to speak."
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion said slowly, "After I swear allegiance to you, I hope you will provide our Demon Beast clan with more Nine-Star Fushens and lead us to Dragon Valley in the Immortal Realm to seek the Transformation Grass."
Yan Rufeng said lightly, "Lion King, as long as you can persuade the other kings to follow , you can have as many Nine-Star Fushens as you want. As for the Immortal Realm, I always intended to go there, so you needn’t worry about that."
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion lowered its head in contemplation, "Persuading them is too difficult. Few can even understand human words. But if they could consu the Nine-Star Fushen, that would be different. Yet, without allegiance, would a human boy give them to ? Moreover, in the entire Demon Beast Forest, there are scarcely any Seven-Star Fushens, let alone Nine-Star Fushens. Does he really have that many..."
Yan Rufeng seed to have guessed what the Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion was thinking.
"Lion King, I can give you one hundred Nine-Star Fushens first. Do you think that’s enough?"
"One hundred?"
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion roared.
"Not enough?" Yan Rufeng asked again.
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion jumped up with excitent.
"Enough, enough."
Yan Rufeng continued, "Lion King, since it’s settled, I will now give you the Nine-Star Fushens."
A flash of white light, and there were exactly one hundred Nine-Star Fushens floating in front of the Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion. Gazing at the dazzlingly brilliant Nine-Star Fushens, the Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion prostrated itself on the ground and murmured, "I, Fla Little Vajra, swear to the heavens, from this mont on, I pledge allegiance to Yan Rufeng. During the days of following the master, the master is supre. I will always protect the master, solve any troubles for the master. If I break this oath, my soul will scatter and perish!"
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion had sworn an oath contract. Once such a contract was made, no matter how great its achievents or strength, it couldn’t break the oath, or it would face divine retribution, even in the Holy Domain.
Yan Rufeng called out, "Fla Little Vajra?"
"Master, Little Vajra is here."
Yan Rufeng smiled, "I don’t like your na."
"Please, Master, give a new na!"
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion replied respectfully.
Yan Rufeng thought for a mont.
"From now on, you shall be called Fiery Fla Cat."
The Nine-headed Fiery Fla Lion respectfully said, "Fiery Fla Cat thanks the master for the na!"
"Pfft!!"
Yi Mu, who was beside Yan Rufeng, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
"Brother Rufeng, it’s as big as a mountain, yet you nad it ’Cat’..."
