"Not only that, but I was sold as well," Sang Yu shrugged as she spoke, as if the person sold wasn’t even her.
"You were sold too?" Dugu Qianye was truly surprised this ti.
Sang Yu nodded, saying, "Yeah, for 20 fifth-grade Elixirs."
Dugu Qianye couldn’t help but let out a laugh, leaving everyone puzzled. Shouldn’t the City Lord be angry that his friend was sold, instead of laughing?
"Hahahaha!" Xiaojiu was rolling on the ground with laughter, "Sang Yu, you’re too cheap! Only worth 20 fifth-grade Elixirs, hahaha!"
"A useless trash who can’t master Beast Taming, 20 Elixirs for her is already more than enough!" Sang Yu’s words were laced with hatred. No matter if she was the friend of the City Lord, it couldn’t cover up the fact that she was worthless.
"Hahahaha! The first place in the teamwork competition of the four great Empires, and she’s only worth 20 Elixirs, she doesn’t even have as much as my snacks," Xiaojiu continued laughing.
What?! Everyone was stunned by Xiaojiu’s words, but thinking about how much Elixir it just ate, it was obviously true.
However, what shocked people the most was that Sang Yu was actually the first-place winner in the four great Empires competition! Even if she couldn’t master Beast Taming, that was still a great honor for the Sang Family. But what had they done? They actually sold her for 20 Elixirs!
The Sang Family mbers now regretted it so much that their guts turned green. But given Master Niu’s exceptional status, even if they wanted to take it back, they couldn’t!
Chen Yiran knew her daughter’s achievents and smiled affectionately. She always knew her daughter was amazing!
"Yu’er, everything just now was your uncle’s idea, not your father’s," Sang Yijun hurriedly tried to dissociate himself from the issue, "You must be tired from coming back, why don’t you go to your room and rest?"
"Father? Heh," Sang Yu scoffed coldly, "You still have the nerve to call yourself father? You didn’t object just now, did you? Since I was young, you let others bully and mother, and now you let others buy and sell and mother, what right do you have to call yourself my father?"
Sang Yu’s voice grew louder with each word, like muffled thunder in everyone’s hearts. Sang Yijun even stepped back.
"Don’t you just despise because I don’t have a Phantom Power Source and can’t beco a Beast Tar? Now I’ll tell you, I don’t need to be a Phantom Master, I can still beco a Beast Tar!" Sang Yu continued.
"Haha, what a joke!" Sang Yu’s mother laughed loudly, "Everyone knows you must first be a Phantom Master to beco a Beast Tar, can you train a level one Spiritual Beast? Even Sword Masters want to beco Beast Tars, don’t say nonsense that could bite your tongue off with the wind blowing!"
"What if I can ta beasts?"
"If you can ta beasts, I’ll chop off my head and let you use it as a stool! How about that?" Sang Yu’s mother said scornfully, "If you can’t ta beasts, then obediently go with Master Niu."
"Alright, but before you chop off your head, you have to kowtow three tis to my mother," Sang Yu replied, with a cold smile. "Empty promises an nothing, swear an oath."
"Fine," Sang Yu’s mother readily agreed. She realized that the Second Lord now regretted letting them go, and she couldn’t allow that to happen.
Then the two of them took their oaths. The light flickered, and the oaths took effect.
It was unexpected that the two really took oaths, and by the ti the Sang Family mbers wanted to stop them, it was already too late.
"Yu’er, how could you make such an oath?" Chen Yiran said worriedly. To beco a Beast Tar, one must first be a Phantom Master, which was common knowledge on the Xuanyue Continent.
"Mother, don’t worry, I will definitely make her kowtow to apologize to you," Sang Yu said.
"Beautiful aunty, don’t worry," Xiaojiu, nestled in Dugu Qianye’s arms, kept winking at Chen Yiran, amusing her greatly. However, her heart was still filled with concern.
As a Beast Taming Family, the Sang Family naturally had untad Phantom Beasts. After the oaths were made, Sang Yu’s mother sent soone to fetch a Phantom Beast. Based on the previous conversation, a guard brought over a level one Spiritual Beast.
Looking at the Spiritual Beast in the cage, Chen Yiran’s face turned even paler, while Sang Yu and her mother had smug smiles on their faces.
Sang Yu patted Chen Yiran’s hand, walked outside the cage, sat down cross-legged, closed her eyes, and reached out with her spiritual power toward the Spiritual Beast in the cage, using the thod previously taught by Dugu Qianye.
Dugu Qianye glanced at the City Lord, who imdiately had his guards encircle Sang Yu to prevent any sneak attacks. Dugu Qianye then took out a chair and let Chen Yiran sit to watch Sang Yu’s Beast Taming.
Ti ticked away, second by second, and the murmuring of the crowd around gradually began to grow. The noise was not loud enough to affect Sang Yu, so Dugu Qianye let them be.
One hour, two hours...
Although not very clear about Beast Taming, at this point, nobody left. Everyone wanted to see if a Sword Master could ta beasts.
Three hours, four hours...
At this ti, the spirit of the Spiritual Beast in the cage was already listless, and sweat began to form on Sang Yu’s forehead.
"Look, the eyes of the Spiritual Beast are starting to scatter!" Soone had already spotted the telltale signs.
"Could it be that a Sword Master really can ta beasts?"
"Certainly, just look at the eyes of the Spiritual Beast."
"My god, this is truly a miracle!"
Sang Yu and her mother were anxiously watching on the side. This vile woman couldn’t really ta a beast, could she?
No, she must not be allowed to succeed. Sang Yu thought to herself, then condensed Phantom Power in her right hand, trying to seize the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Sang Yu.
"Ah!" Unexpectedly, before she could release her Phantom Power, Sang Yu’s own hand was struck. Following the direction of the blow, she saw Dugu Qianye gazing at her coldly. Although Dugu Qianye said nothing, his eyes conveyed a killing intent that made her shiver.
The others, witnessing this scene, also understood what had happened and began to criticize Sang Yu and her mother.
Sang Yu, surrounded by the guards of the City Lord’s Mansion, was not affected and was engaged in the final tug-of-war with the Spiritual Beast. If she held on, she would succeed.
"Beautiful Auntie, Sang Yu will succeed, you can be at ease." Xiaojiu, seeing Chen Yiran wrinkle the hem of her clothes, spoke again to comfort her.
"Mm." Chen Yiran nodded, but her gaze never left Sang Yu.
Dugu Qianye lay in the rocking chair, while stroking Xiaojiu’s soft fur, watching Sang Yu ta the beast.
After another half hour, Sang Yu finally opened her eyes, and the Spiritual Beast, with scattered eyes, lay docilely in the cage, clearly tad.
"My god, the Spiritual Beast has really been tad!" exclaid the onlooking crowd.
"The Sword Master has actually tad a Spiritual Beast, how is this possible!"
"If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it even if you killed ."
Sang Yu stood up, while the guards of the City Lord’s Mansion were still dazed and hadn’t snapped back to reality.
"Thank you, brothers, for your protection." Sang Yu thanked the guards.
"Ah, oh. Miss Sang is too polite." The guard ca to his senses and stepped back behind the City Lord.
"How can this be, how can this be?" The mbers of Sang Family kept exclaiming in disbelief. Sang Yu and her mother turned pale, their legs weak.
