Chapter 431: Recognize Me As Your Master
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Make them retreat! Otherwise, I’ll strip your tendons and skin you!” Gu Qingluan glanced at the restless mystical beasts and issued a stern command. The flying silver wolf exhaled forcefully through its nose to show its resilience. Gu Qingluan narrowed her eyes. “Very well, it seems you prefer a feast of tendons and skin. I’ll grant your wish!”
With that, a sharp sword appeared in her hand.
She slid the sword across the back of the flying silver wolf.
The tough and thick wolfhide instantly cracked open.
The flying silver wolf let out a miserable howl.
Since it was a saint beast, its fur and hide were as tough as iron.
Yet, it had been easily pierced by this woman.
At that moment, the flying silver wolf deeply felt the fear of impending death.
It didn’t want to die!
It didn’t want to be stripped to tendons and skin!
The flying silver wolf whimpered, pleading, “I was wrong! Spare me, please!”
Gu Qingluan lowered her head to look at it, her bright eyes shining like stars. “Oh? Where were you wrong?”
“I’ll immediately make these mystical beasts retreat!”
The flying silver wolf pragmatically offered.
Gu Qingluan neither agreed nor disagreed.
Seeing her silence as consent, the flying silver wolf quickly applied pressure to the horde of beasts.
The aura of a third-grade saint beast was overwhelming for ordinary mystical beasts.
The beasts began to retreat.
As they saw the horde of beasts pulling back, cheers erupted inside and outside Crimson Flame City, and joyful expressions appeared on people’s faces.
However, an unexpected change occurred.
A tiger’s roar echoed from the forest.
The horde of beasts suddenly froze in place.
Various mystical beasts, agitated and restless, abruptly turned back to attack Crimson Flame City again under the influence of the tiger’s roar.
People’s expressions went from joy to astonishment and fear in an instant.
Seeing the situation, the flying silver wolf’s heart skipped a beat.
It let out a howl into the sky.
Unfortunately, it was being restrained by Gu Qingluan and couldn’t muster much strength.
Compared to the thrilling roars echoing from the forest, its own cries lacked vigor.
In the struggle between the two saint beasts, the horde of beasts chose the one in the forest.
The flying silver wolf was furious but helpless.
It quickly explained the situation to Gu Qingluan, “I’m not behind this. You should be able to sense it. The one commanding them is another saint beast, at a level similar to mine.”
Gu Qingluan had already sensed it.
Unable to discern her expression, the flying silver wolf’s eyes darted around as it proposed, “I know that guy; he’s my mortal enemy, the Crimson Blaze Tiger. His strength is slightly inferior to mine, but I’m currently restrained and unable to use arcane power. I don’t have the same influence on the group of beasts as he does. If you release me, 1 promise I can control these mystical beasts.”
Gu Qingluan chuckled,.”You’re quite confident, but how do I know you’re not just trying to fool me?”
Seeing the horde of beasts returning, she didn’t waste any more words with it, saying, “You now recognize me as your master. I’ll let you go back and fight the Crimson Blaze Tiger. Otherwise, I’ll kill you first and then deal with it!” Recognize her as its master?
The flying silver wolf widened its eyes.
She was asking a third-grade saint beast to recognize her as its master?
That’s wishful thinking!
“Never mind, you look so ugly; it’s better if you don’t follow me to avoid affecting my mood,” Gu Qingluan said disdainfully, raising her sword as if to kill it.
The flying silver wolf felt as if a sword had pierced its chest.
What on earth was this woman’s sense of aesthetics?
One moment she complained it was too fat, and now she called it ugly!
After all, it was the most beautiful wolf in the clan!
Did her eyes go crooked?
Although it had complaints, the flying silver wolf didn’t dare to say it in front of Gu Qingluan. As soon as she seemed serious, it surrendered without any backbone, “Master! You are my master! Please, release me!”
(T/N: Even though the term “mistress” can be used to refer to a female in a position of authority or control, it can also carry additional connotations, so 1 believe using the term “Master” is a more appropriate and neutral term to use to translate ‘zEA’ for this chapter. 1’11 make it consistent that the Flying Silver Wolf would address Gu Qingluan as “Master” throughout the series (instead of Mistress like how the others would address her). However, please take note that 1’11 change the term accordingly to suit the story settings..)
