Lu Yunhe.
A member of Maple City's Friar Association.
In today's world, the ancient path of immortality had become a lost cause. The spirit energy of heaven and earth was no longer suitable for normal immortal cultivation. Fortunately, if this path didn't work, there was another way.
Blood contracts, pet beasts.
For thousands of years, this had become the orthodox path of cultivation known to all.
The difference between the cultivators of this era and the average person was that they cultivated 'blood contracts'. In other words, it was a cultivation method to increase the pet beast's rank and obtain its strength.
Pet beasts were merely a 'medium' for human cultivators to obtain spirit energy from heaven and earth.
Blood contracts were divided into ten realms. Depending on the realm, one could obtain a corresponding ratio of strength. For example, Lu Yunhe, who was considered a genius in the Friar Association, had cultivated his pet beast's blood contract to the fourth realm. In other words, he could obtain forty percent of his pet beast's strength.
This improvement came from the inside out. It could even be said to be a complete rebirth, cleansing one's body.
Some cultivators could easily crack boulders without the help of pet beasts, leap several feet into the air, and possess extraordinary endurance. There were also those who could use the power of the five elements to control fire and lightning, sprinkle soil to form walls, and exhale frost.
Some people said that since one already had a blood contract with a pet beast, it was meaningless no matter how strong one was. But sometimes, when pet beasts were evenly matched, the battle would be decided by the owner's combat strength and cultivation.
There were even some cultivators who could suppress another's pet beast without the help of their pet beasts. Their strength was truly astounding.
The Friar Association specialized in blood contract cultivation. As one of the top members of Maple City's Friar Association's younger generation, Lu Yunhe had every right to be arrogant.
He had always thought highly of himself so when he heard that his sister, Lu Xiaoyun, had been deceived by an incompetent piece of trash in the Beast Appraisal Association with flowery words, causing her to 'betray' Appraiser Gao and become affiliated with that swindler, he was infuriated.
Hence, he brought his pet beast along to cause trouble for Lin Jin.
Lu Xiaoyun, who was studying the evaluation reports, was startled. When she saw her brother, she immediately rushed over.
"Brother, what are you doing?"
"What am I doing? Xiao Yun, you've been tricked by that Lin fella. If Appraiser Gao Jiang hadn't personally written me a letter to tell me the truth, I would still be in the dark. " Having said that, he looked up and saw Lin Jin sitting there. Lu Yunhe knew it was him so he said, "Lin, don't you know what kind of person you are? Who in this Beast Appraisal Association doesn't know that you're ignorant and incompetent? You appraise beasts for others and even caused an accident. What right does a person like you have to teach disciples? "
Before Lin Jin could say anything, Lu Xiaoyun panicked.
Her eyes reddened as she tugged at Lu Yunhe and said, "Brother, what nonsense are you spouting? I was the one who decided to study under Appraiser Lin. Aiyaya, you don't even know anything yet you're causing trouble."
It had to be said that Lu Yunhe doted on his sister very much. When he saw that there were tears in her eyes, he knew that she was really angry. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Xiaoyun, don't lie to me. Did you really join us of your own accord?"
Lu Xiaoyun nodded.
Lin Jin added, "I never force anyone to do something they don't want to do!"
Lu Yunhe laughed coldly. "If that's the case, then you're even more despicable. Bewitching people's hearts to benefit yourself. Let me ask you, was it you who asked my sister to secretly take away my Cloudcrane Pill Furnace?"
Furnace?
Lin Jin thought about it and realized that it was true. When he needed to refine the six sun beast soul pill, it was indeed Lu Xiaoyun who took her brother's furnace. However, Lin Jin didn't know that she had secretly taken it.
Hence, he didn't deny it.
Lu Yunhe asked again, "Besides the furnace, what else did you take from my sister?"
Lin Jin answered honestly, "There's also a beast soul, a Rank 1 superior fire spirit beast soul."
"What?!" Lu Yunhe was only trying to bluff him but to think that he would actually get something out of him. Lu Yunhe's brows shot up in anger. "You shameless liar! My sister isn't experienced enough to be fooled by you. Today, I'll teach you a lesson and serve justice."
Right now, Lu Yunhe was completely enraged. No one could stop him.
Lu Xiaoyun wanted to stop him but Lin Jin said, "Xiaoyun, your brother has the same temper as you. He won't turn back until he hits the wall. Stop trying to persuade him. Go, close the door."
At this, Lu Xiaoyun was startled and froze on the spot.
Lu Yunhe immediately grinned. "Are you afraid that I'll embarrass myself when I beat you up? Xiaoyun, close the door. Today, I'll show you the true colors of this useless liar. "
Lu Yunhe's pet beast, a lion that was rarely seen in Maple City, let out a roar as well, displaying its might in full display. Just like its owner, it was domineering and condescending.
However, Lu Xiaoyun's next reaction almost made Lu Yunhe stumble.
She turned to Lin Jin and said, "Appraiser Lin, my brother was just being impulsive. Please don't be angry. Give me some time, I'll talk to him."
What?
Lu Yunhe's eyes widened. Was there something wrong with his ears? No matter how he looked at it, it sounded like she was begging Lin Jin to spare him.
Did she get it wrong?
Lin Jin's answer was even more infuriating. "Xiaoyun, he might not listen to anything you say now. Don't worry, he's your brother and as your mentor, I'm considered his elder. I won't make things difficult for him."
"But the door is broken so I can't close it," Lu Xiaoyun answered honestly.
"Hang a curtain. We're dealing with our own conflicts. We can't let outsiders laugh at us," Lin Jin said nonchalantly.
"Shut up!" Lu Yunhe was enraged.
He was going crazy.
'What the hell is this?! I'm an outstanding member of the younger generation in Maple City's Friar Association. My blood contract is at the fourth realm and my pet beast is at Rank 2. Even Gao Jiang wouldn't dare to fight me head-on. Who do you think you are to look down on me?
If I don't beat the sh * t out of you today, I'll write my name backwards. '
Lu Yunhe clenched his fists so tightly that they creaked. Having made up his mind, Lu Yunhe invoked a spell and the lion beside him roared before pouncing at Lin Jin.
Lu Yunhe's pet beast was of the wind attribute so it was extremely fast, stirring up a strong gust of wind.
However, before it could reach Lin Jin, it was stopped by a figure.
It was Lin Jin's pet beast, Xiao Huo, the fire wolf.
"Lions are ferocious and are the king of beasts. Most pet beasts would be defeated in an instant …" Lu Yunhe looked confident but what happened next made him swallow his words.
He watched as a fire wolf that was a size smaller than his pet beast knocked his lion to the ground with a swipe of its paw.
'What's going on? '
Lu Yunhe thought his eyes were playing tricks on him. How could a mere fire wolf, an average pet beast, defeat his Rank 2 lion? Wasn't this a joke?
"It's just an accident!" Lu Yunhe immediately made a judgment. He knew that the fire wolf was Lin Jin's pet beast. Although he was confident in his victory, he didn't let down his guard and immediately cast a spell.
"Bloodthirst!"
This spell could be used on pet beasts to boost their strength. It was a widely used buff spell for pet beasts.
The lion's body glowed red as if it was coated in a layer of blood, making it look even more ferocious. The lion that was enchanted with Bloodthirst roared and charged at the fire wolf.
However, what greeted it was still a wolf's paw.
The fire wolf, which was clearly smaller than the lion, seemed to carry an incomparably huge force with its claw, causing the lion to fall to the ground again.
"Impossible!" Lu Yunhe's heart thumped wildly. Refusing to give up, he cast another spell to urge his pet beast. This time, he cast two enhancement spells.
"Windbreaker Claw, Berserk!"
This was his trump card. Under the enhancement of the spell, the lion's body grew larger and its eyes turned bloodshot. It looked like it was about to devour someone.
However, it was still knocked to the ground by the fire wolf's paw.
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it!" Lu Yunhe seemed to have lost his soul. He wanted to cast another spell but Lu Xiaoyun stopped him. "Brother, stop fooling around. Can't you see that Lu Ba is crying?"
