178 Dog’s Record (1/2)

When the silly Liu Li made such a big move on her own people, Wang Lu really couldn’t resist and thus gawked for a moment. However, this moment of distraction was enough for the two female cultivators of the Beast Master School to make their move.

”Go!”

Subsequently, two golden lights flashed as the life-saving talismans equipped for every Beast Master School disciples were ignited. The two female cultivators were wrapped within the sphere of light and whisked them away.

Liu Li looked at those two fleeing golden lights; if she wanted to, she could still intercept them, but she didn’t bother with them. Instead, she turned her gaze back at Wang Lu and looked at him with pleading eyes.

Wang Lu unceremoniously reached out and slapped her on the head.

”Idiot!”

Because she was already accustomed to such criticism, Liu Li didn’t feel wronged. Instead, she sincerely asked, ”I’m sorry, what did I do wrong?”

Wang Lu sighed. ”Two things. First, within your peer, you’re one of the best sword cultivators in the Spirit Sword Sect and even in the whole Nine Regions. Thus, you need to have strength of character, aloof and overbearing aura. In short, don’t mess things up and don’t act like a spoiled child. Second, do I look like a person who eats anything?”

With that, Wang Lu pointed to the Little White dog that was left behind by the two Beast Master School female cultivators. ”This thing is our captive, we’ll eat other things at dinner.”

Liu Li immediately felt relieved. ”I knew you are the best, brother.”

Wang Lu suddenly felt coldness that even his Non-Phase Sword Bone could not resist. ”... Don’t call me brother.”

”But, you said I am your sister?”

”My sister couldn’t possibly be so lovable. Later on, just call me Senior Brother. In any case, I’m the sect’s lead representative, so I’m a half level higher than you.”

”Em, okay!” Although that reasoning completely went over her head, Liu Li has one excellent advantage, which was, she never ask too much.

Having dealt with Liu Li, Wang Lu splashed the captive, the invisible white dog with cold water to wake it up. After the puppy regained its consciousness, it immediately realized that something was wrong, thus it quickly attempted to enter into stealth mode to hide itself. However, when only half its body turned invisible, it saw a pair of red eyes staring at it from its front.

It was a mottled spirit dog of different build and seemingly different breed, which appeared silly—just what’s with the piece of bone marinated in soy sauce that it held in its mouth? However, the other party’s small body seemed to hide a hell; the terrifying power that imperceptibly unleashed from it caused the white puppy’s primordial spirit to condense and interrupt the spell that it instinctively cast.

The mottled dog cast a glance at it, humphed out a disdainful voice while its mouth continued to chew that bone marinated in soy sauce, as if to say: If you dare to run, you will end up like this bone!

The Little White dog whimpered, looked at Wang Lu and Liu Li, pleading them with its best begging-for-mercy look.

Seeing that the other party no longer tried to run, Wang Lu nodded and said, ”Can you speak human words?”

The Little White dog shook its head in fear.

”No matter. Huahua, translate it for us.” Wang Lu gave the stupid dog a kick. The dumb dog was really unwilling, but in the end, it spat out the bone. ”Really annoying.”

Then it launched a burst of bark at the Little White dog. The Little White dog shivered then sobbed for a moment, and then piteously waited. After a moment of discussion between them, Huahua said to Wang Lu, ”This grandson is named Little White, spirit pet of that female cultivator. It is now willing to surrender. However, because it has a contract with its master, it could not divulge the matter regarding its master and its master’s sect.”

Wang Lu mused, ”This little thing doesn’t have any moral integrity at all, it surrenders so quickly… As for that contract thing, Xian’Er, get rid of it.”

Liu Li stretched out her hand and touched the Little White’s head. The little thing immediately felt a portion of sharp sword intent entering its head and into its primordial spirit, deftly avoiding all its vital parts and then directly forming an invisible extension line.

The next moment, Little White felt its primordial spirit loose and a certain bind that has been powered for many years then disappeared… It and its master’s contract had actually just been lifted!

Liu Li’s Brilliant Sword Heart could pierce through anything in this world, including the spirit pet contract of the Beast Master School.

Without the bondage of the contract, Little White very quickly lost its inhibition of betraying its former master and spilled all the beans. Wang Lu had no interest in the privacy of the two middle-aged women, but he was very curious about the reason behind their blatant attempt on pet robbery.

Actually, when he thought about it, Wang Lu actually found it was not at all unusual for the Moral Enlightenment City inhabitants to complain just days after the people from the Beast Master School entered the city. However, there was certainly a strong motive behind the blatant highway robbery attempt of those two middle-aged women. No matter what, Beast Master School was still among the upright sect, thus there was a huge risk for them if their disciples blatantly robbed cultivators from noble Immortal Cultivation Family. Without any strong motive, this was definitely impossible.

And from the mouth of that Little White, Wang Lu learned that Beast Master School has recently been carrying out a massive operation, which involved their entire divisions and subdivisions numbering thousands of people. However, the woman with the big round face and other disciples were assigned with a strange task: to collect all kinds of spirit pet dog and bring them back to the mountain. Furthermore, this task was also quite urgent. For this reason, the Elder in charge of the woman with big round face even plainly said, ”No matter how, as long as its a good dog, bring them all back to me and you will be richly rewarded. If necessary, by hook or by crook. If there’s anything, I will be responsible for it!

Them resorting to highway robbery of a noble Immortal Cultivation Family clearly indicated that Beast Master Sect was short of spirit pet dog so much that they were desperate. However, this was even stranger. In over ten thousand sects within the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals, nobody could rival Beast Master School in terms of taming spirit beast. Moreover, Beast Master Sect has been the biggest seller in the spirit beast market, so how come they seemed to be extremely lacking in spirit pet dog so much that they were driven to desperation because of it?

Unfortunately, Little White could not provide any further information. After all, it was just a dog, so it couldn’t understand a too deep content. However, that information was enough for Wang Lu.

”Since their demand of spirit pet dog has reached the level of hunger and thirst… we probably don’t need to do anything. Some of their higher ups will come down the mountain and look for us.”
