"I want to be a Silver-rank commanding War General-rank Pet Beasts, and I also plan to graft a few powerful Pet Beasts onto myself." The tall shadowy man licked his lips, about to open the door.
"Abandon this illusory idea."
The nearby horned shadowy figure raised his hand to stop the tall man, frowning. "Heed the orders of the Golden Monarch. The sacrificial ritual must not be disturbed. Do not cause trouble."
Immediately, he looked at the living room, at the hexagonal star array inscribed with blood, a hint of greed flickering in his eyes.
At the center of the sacrifice, a massive lump of flesh formed from the blood and meat of countless Pet Beasts was offered. Tendril-thick blood vessels penetrated the cement ground.
It resembled the heart of a giant beast, throbbing violently, causing visible ripples to spread outwards, impacting everything around.
Of course, the entire room had been prepared with special measures.
Otherwise, the mere presence of such a beast-like commotion couldn’t have been concealed.
Even the slightest evil, corrosive aura would have been immediately detected by the Beast Tamers in this town.
Guys, you won’t believe what happened today! I ran into this female thug. Not only did she pin me against the wall, but she also handcuffed me in a dark little room... HEH HEH HEH...
I’m so done with this.
Chu Yi was surfing online.
The Star Bracelet was exclusive to Beast Tamers, offering comprehensive features, including internet access. However, being under Federation management, it was prone to monitoring.
But Chu Yi used a computer to go online to contact his loyal followers.
Using the private address given by the leader—the one whose head had been creatively fashioned into a twelve-petal lotus—he set up a VPN to log in from abroad.
Very soon, he arrived at a platform of the Gray Mist Sect and, using the provided password, entered a group chat.
Within the group, including him, there were only six people.
"Master, Oh Great Master, your devout and humble Asa is at your service."
Asa was the name of that leader.
He had recorded the scene of Chu Yi summoning the Power of the Demon God and uploaded it to the sect, earning great merit for welcoming the return of the God Master, and was temporarily promoted to Bishop.
Additionally, besides him, three others had greyed-out avatars, indicating they were not yet online.
Only another Golden Bishop greeted the arrival of the God Master with a simple doctrinal message and reported the status of the others.
The Bishop was not in Yaoguang City. The Dawn Star-rank High Priest was occupied within a Shadow Plane and couldn’t spare any attention.
As the God Master, Chu Yi naturally and generously forgave this.
Four Gold-ranks and one Dawn Star... this Gray Mist Sect is truly weak.
However, in the remote areas of the Federation, within Yaoguang City, it was still a significant force.
Though I don’t understand how I became the God Master, the benefits from sponsorship are tangible. I’ll just join their camp and freeload. Once I’ve fleeced them dry, I’ll report them. That’ll be my final contribution to the ’Great God Master,’ and I can clear my own suspicions. How delightful...
Chu Yi exaggeratedly recounted what that wicked Jiang Qiuyun had done.
Eager to prove his worth, Asa immediately responded, "I understand the Master’s intent. I have already removed the surveillance for the Master. At the very least, it would take the City Defense Army several days to trace the Master."
"Of course, this is all thanks to the Master’s great fortune; the Master caused the Blood Moon Catastrophe on the very first day of arrival!"
"Yaoguang City has withdrawn its forces, significantly weakening its control over the fringe areas. It has also shifted its focus to the Life Sect, diverting attention elsewhere."
"Here, I must admit, the Master’s foresight is profound, and the Master’s intellect is beyond our reach—far beyond what servants as lowly as dust like ourselves could ever hope to achieve..."
Such efficiency and boot-licking skill... Chu Yi couldn’t help but be impressed. In my previous life, someone like that would have been at least a department leader.
The Golden Bishop was momentarily speechless, a knot in his throat.
Seriously? Is he trying to outdo me already? He just became a Bishop and he’s already this competitive?!
In reality, opinions within the Gray Mist Sect regarding Chu Yi were divided.
But what was certain was that he was a servitor of an Ancient One, an avatar sent by the Evil Gods.
As for whether Chu Yi was truly the Master of Grey Mist, the Golden Bishop maintained a wait-and-see attitude; recruiting him into the sect was part of a different scheme.
"Then, how can I remove these handcuffs without exposing myself?" Chu Yi further inquired.
This question made Asa hesitate. "Perhaps, cut off the other’s hand?"
If I cut off her hand, I’ll truly be marked as a member of an Evil God Sect! There’d be no clearing my name then!
Chu Yi was speechless.
"Master," the Golden Bishop couldn’t help but speak up, "these handcuffs are bound by a soul and contain a trace of a Treasure’s Power of Rules. Even severing the limb won’t help."
Chu Yi was momentarily stunned. This wicked woman is so ruthless?
"However, Master, your domain is the Grey Mist: primal chaos, undifferentiated, returning the paths of all things to their origin, where everything turns to dust."
"And the Eye of Azathoth possesses a trace of your Power of Rules. Master, you can erase this woman’s memory and make her loyal to you. Then the handcuffs can be undone," the Golden Bishop reminded.
Damn it, I don’t have any such authority!
Upon hearing this, several indescribable words popped into Chu Yi’s mind.
Chu Yi felt he wasn’t that kind of person; he was merely exploring new capabilities for the Ring of Curse. And conveniently, here was an experimental subject.
"Bika, close your eyes. Don’t watch inappropriate content for children," Chu Yi instructed.
Bika tilted his head, wagging his fox tail, then turned on the TV to watch cartoons.
Immediately, Chu Yi propped up the wicked Jiang Qiuyun and activated his Exorcism Reversal Eye.
Vast Spiritual Energy erupted at once. Chu Yi’s pupils emitted a faint bright light, resembling a blazing nebula.
At the same time, he summoned the simplified Ring of Curse. Its pink eyeball burst with dazzling light, transforming into a pink haze.
With the aid of the Exorcism Reversal Eye, it delved into Jiang Qiuyun’s brow.
He aimed to use hypnosis to erase the other’s memory.
However, the initial mental passage was somewhat narrow.
Chu Yi’s Spiritual Power, enshrouding the pink haze, painstakingly worked to widen the passage. After a moment of careful effort, he pushed it open, revealing a vibrant spectacle.
Floating bubbles, presumably the materialization of memories, drifted within.
Chu Yi marveled at the strength of the Treasure’s Power of Rules while exploring how to erase these memories.
Chu Yi manipulated the pink haze, transforming it into a plume of rolling smoke that began to engulf the memories.
As it consumed the first memory, Chu Yi’s face twisted. The consciousness he had projected into the pink haze nearly destabilized.
Memories have a taste?
Chu Yi felt as though he had discovered a new continent and mentally recorded this finding.
Very soon, sounds like a wild beast gnawing echoed chillingly back and forth within the Scumbag Female Knight’s mind.
However, this action disturbed a barrier.
An unbearable oppressive force surged forward, and with a sharp cry, Chu Yi was expelled.
The Beast Taming Space! This was the Scumbag Female Knight’s Beast Taming Space! Her Dragon Eagle must have detected the intrusion and launched a counterattack! Spiritual Power at the Silver-rank was several times higher than at the Red Copper-rank. If the Treasure hadn’t distorted the rules, Chu Yi would have been no match for the Scumbag Female Knight.fre ewe bnove l.com
Chu Yi awoke with a start.
He hadn’t even caught his breath when his own eerie eyes met a pair of cold, clear ones.
