Chapter 125 - 78: This Fox Is So Beautiful, Melorin Is Captivated

A sultry female voice slowly rang out, tinged with a hint of surprise.

In the darkness, a woman swiveled around in a large chair, revealing a stunningly beautiful face.

Fiery red lips, long, wavy golden hair, and a curvaceous body clad in a tight leather dress. The neckline plunged low, revealing most of her high, proud, snow-white breasts.

The woman’s 9-centimeter heels clicked crisply on the floor as she walked past the Bear Beastman, leading the way out the door.

"It seems we have one with extraordinary talent. Come, let’s go take a look."

As the woman passed, a captivating fragrance lingered in the air. The many Beastmen standing guard by the stairs couldn’t help but sniff, trying to catch a whiff of her scent, their faces filled with intoxicated fascination.

A vast, secret underground space, dimly lit and oppressive.

Row after row of indestructible iron cages stood in neat order, each imprisoning a different kind of ferocious Evil Beast.

The Evil Beasts were all frantic, ceaselessly ramming the cages. Their eyes were savage and bloodthirsty, filled with a terrifying cruelty. Their maws were locked tight with iron muzzles, rendering them completely silent.

Melorin’s seductive eyes swept over the Evil Beasts as she made her way to the very back, followed by several strong and formidable Beastman guards.

"Young Miss!"

Seeing her, the Beastman guards all bowed respectfully.

She walked to a massive iron cage covered by a black cloth. "Where is the new Fox Beastman we caught? How is he?"

"To answer, Young Miss, Captain Drake injected him with a Soft Bone Agent. He’s quiet now."

"Mm, uncover it. I’ll take a look."

As she spoke, the Beastman guard pulled away the massive black cloth, revealing a cage made of steel bars as thick as a man’s wrist.

Inside the cage, a breathtakingly beautiful Silver Fox lay limply. Its twelve tails fanned out behind it in an orderly fashion, exuding an indescribable air of nobility and mystery.

Hearing the commotion, the Silver Fox lazily opened its eyes. It looked at the people outside its cage with a lazy, disdainful gaze, as if they were nothing more than ants.

A flicker of confusion crossed Melorin’s eyes.

"Strange. He only had three tails when we first caught him. The Nine Spirits Essence is a supreme treasure, but it shouldn’t be enough to make him evolve this quickly, should it?"

The sound of heavy, powerful footsteps approached from behind.

A powerful, iron-like arm wrapped around her shoulder as a deep, hoarse voice cleared up her confusion.

"This man is no ordinary person. He already had the power of an Ancient Beast Soul in his body, but his Realm wasn’t high enough to refine and fully absorb it."

"At his Realm, it might have taken him a century or more to refine that Beast Soul. But, by a stroke of luck, he happened to consume the Nine Spirits Essence."

"The Nine Spirits Essence is incredibly potent. An ordinary person couldn’t withstand such potent Primordial Essence and would simply explode. Yet, he just so happened to have an even more domineering Beast Soul inside him."

"When the two forces clashed, he unexpectedly reaped the benefits, completely absorbing the power of both the Beast Soul and the Primordial Essence."

"The Records of Anomalous Beast Souls state that a nine-tailed fox is a Celestial Fox, ten tails a Sacred Fox, eleven tails an Ancestral Fox, and twelve tails... a Chaos Primordial Fox. This kid is going to be a hot potato in our hands."

After hearing this, Melorin turned to see her favorite Beast Husband, Drake.

She rose onto her tiptoes, wrapped her arms around the man’s neck, and gave him a long, passionate kiss. Then, her voice soft and sultry, she purred coquettishly.

"Drake, he’s so talented. What do you think about me taking him as my Contractor?"

The blond-haired, blue-eyed man’s gaze darkened. His features were sharp and defined. He reached out and mercilessly squeezed the soft, alluring flesh exposed on her chest.

"Get that idea out of your head. He’s already contracted. He has a Contract Master. Forcing a Contract Termination would cause his Cultivation to plummet. How would he be worthy of you then?"

"Ngh~"

The sudden assault made Melorin cry out, and her enchanting, seductive moan was enough to make every Beastman on duty nearby stand at full attention.

She leaned half her body into Drake’s muscular embrace, grabbed his hand, and stuffed it under her dress.

"What a pity that he’s already contracted. In that case, I won’t form a contract with him. I’ll just... take him."

’This fox is just too beautiful, so beautiful he makes my heart race.’

In all her years and with all the countless men she’d been with, this was the first time she had felt so stunned, her heart so moved. Even if she couldn’t have him officially, she wanted this fox for herself.

"Heh. That thing is vicious, bloodthirsty, and violent. Without the restraints of a contract, you’d be torn to shreds if you got close. Besides, we’ve already suffered a huge loss with the Nine Spirits Essence..."

"Why don’t we send him to the underground Beast Fighting Arena first? We can recoup some of our losses and wear down his aggression. Once he’s a bit more docile, then you can think about bringing him to your bed."

Melorin’s whole body went weak, her mind too hazy to think clearly. She vaguely agreed to his suggestion.

"Then... we’ll do as you say. Send him to the Beast Fighting Arena first."

"Good."

After their public display of foreplay, the Silver Fox was taken to the underground Beast Fighting Arena. He would be thrown into a vicious fight the moment the Soft Bone Agent wore off.

It was all so rushed that there wasn’t even much publicity.

But that hardly mattered. The Mei Family ran Uguria City’s largest auction house, Beast Fighting Arena, and Beastman trafficking ring. As the city’s biggest criminal power, they never lacked for customers.

「Mist Forest.」

Jiang Yunnuan’s resistance had been futile. In the end, she was forced to wear the pet Collar.

Her face was grim as she moved Yan Chen’s true form into her farm space, then proceeded to upgrade it and plant some crops.

In her mind, her Light Brain chimed incessantly with messages from Jun Yao.

"Why aren’t you replying? Did something happen?"

"How much longer until you’re out?"

"Jiang Yunnuan, answer me!"

Jiang Yunnuan glanced over the messages and sent a reply.

"Coming out now, don’t rush me."

After sending the message, she saw the man outside the Domain grow more and more anxious, his eyes darting around impatiently.

Turning off the Light Brain, she looked at Yan Chen.

"You are forbidden from telling anyone I’m your pet. You must say you’re my Contractor. In private, I can listen to you, but in public, you must listen to me. Here’s to our pleasant cooperation. Now, drop your Domain."

Yan Chen was silent.

He didn’t say a word. With a wave of his hand, he dispelled the Domain.

The dimensional barrier vanished. The three people outside blinked, and two figures suddenly appeared before them.

Their gazes shot past Jiang Yunnuan to the man behind her. Fu Yuan and Ming Ye stared warily at the tall, distinguished, and handsome young man.

The man had long, ink-black hair, as smooth and beautiful as satin, that fell casually over his shoulders. His eyes were cold and distant. There was no trace of the imposing aura or pressure one would expect from a powerhouse.

’This is the Ultimate Venerable Stage powerhouse?’

’How can he be so young?’

They had assumed someone with that level of Cultivation would be gray-haired and ancient, but he was so young. A flash of astonishment crossed their eyes, their pride taking a heavy blow.

Suddenly, a white figure flashed past like a bolt of lightning, hoisted Jiang Yunnuan onto their shoulder, and took off running...
