Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future

275 This Is The Black Hole, Not Some Haven

“Oh? Why do you say that? Don’t tell me you already know that we were after this Golden-horned Crocodile?” The corner of Shen Fei’s mouth rose as he spoke with a fake smile.

“Hmph!” Xia’er snorted coldly and said, “Although we’ve been chasing this Golden-horned Crocodile, it’s only because it’s nothing more than a beast in our eyes! So, how can we care about it? You must be the exception.”

Hearing Xia’er’s words, Shen Fei suddenly came to a realization. ‘It seems that this guy knows that we’ve been killing Golden-horned Crocodiles, but he’s afraid of the power of this particular one, so he doesn’t dare to reveal it to avoid trouble.’

“If that’s the case, then you guys should hurry up and leave,” Shen Fei indifferently said.

Hearing this, Xia’er sneered, “What do you mean? Do you think that by killing this Golden-horned Crocodile, you have completed your mission?”

“Are you saying that I’ll get a reward for killing it?” Shen Fei asked.

“That’s right. Even though you killed this Golden-horned Crocodile, there’s still quite a bit of gold-attribute demonic energy left on its body. If one could absorb this gold-attribute demonic energy, they could use it to directly advance into a King! There are also other kinds of loot, such as the beast core of the Golden-horned Crocodile, and possibly a black crystal!” Li Yuan said with a sinister smile.

“A black crystal? “Shen Fei frowned.

“That’s right, it’s the inner core of a Golden-horned Crocodile. It can also be found in other beast cores It is one of the materials needed to refine a Saint-tier puppet! As long as you can absorb these cores and refine them, you can successfully refine a Saint-tier puppet!” Xia’er said with a smile.

Shen Fei’s eyes flickered, and he asked, “Then do you need this beast core as well?”

“That’s right! We need it!” Li Yuan nodded enthusiastically.

“Then why don’t you go and take the beast core yourself? “Shen Fei asked.

Xia’er laughed and said, “I won’t hide it from you. This Golden-horned Crocodile’s beast core is the most precious thing. Furthermore, its demonic core holds a fruit of demonic energy. As long as one consumed it, they would be able to advance to the King tier.

“Or rather, if we can get this demonic energy fruit, we can refine Saint-tier puppets. After all, the combat power of a Saint-tier puppet is much stronger than that of a King puppet! Why settle for less?

“If you give us this demonic energy fruit, I can guarantee that your spirit beast will be able to leave this black hole safely. Furthermore, I will ask my master to personally give it a divine artifact!”

Hearing this, Shen Fei shook his head. He could not be bothered to believe the wretched Xia’er’s words.

‘This guy’s goal is too obvious: he wants me to hand over this demonic core.’

Shen Fei naturally would not agree to the other party’s proposal. At this moment, he only wanted to increase his strength as soon as possible.

Xia’er shrugged. “Alright then, since you’re not willing to hand over the beast core, I’ll have to take them from you.”

“You dare…” Shen Fei coldly said.

“Do not forget, this is the black hole, not some haven! Hehe, Shen Fei, I know you’re quite powerful, but this black hole is now our territory. No matter how strong you are, you’re definitely not our match!” Xia’er said.

“You guys can’t beat me,” Shen Fei said unhurriedly.

“Hmph, we can’t beat you, but we have ways to kill you!” Xia’er laughed.

“Oh, really? Are you sure you have the guts to do it?” Shen Fei asked.

“Of course!” Xia’er sneered.

Shen Fei nodded and said, “Good! Since that’s the case, let’s give it a try. I’m also looking forward to seeing what tricks you can play!”

“You really think you’ve won? Shen Fei, I advise you to hand over whatever beast cores you have. Perhaps I might still spare your life.”

Shen Fei laughed derisively and ignored him. Seeing this, Xia’er’s eyes suddenly bloomed with anger.

‘This Shen Fei is really arrogant. He doesn’t even listen to my orders, and even dares to challenge me?!’

“Shen Fei, since you’re so stubborn, I’ll fulfill your wish. Watch how I kill you!” As he spoke, Xia’er’s eyes suddenly turned red, as if he had turned into a demon!

In the next moment, a surge of demonic Qi erupted from his body. A moment later, Xia’er also summoned a spirit beast. It was a huge Blood Wolf!

“Roar!” The Blood Wolf let out a low roar, its scarlet eyes shining fiercely.

“Be careful—”

Seeing this, Shen Fei immediately tried to warn Aloy. However, before he could finish his sentence, a huge pressure exploded from Xia’er’s body!

“Blood Wolf, use the Demonic Wolf Claw to attack, and aim for the enemy’s throat!” Xia’er shouted.

Hearing this, the Blood Wolf immediately attacked, swiping a blood-colored wolf claw at Shen Fei.

“Hmph!” Shen Fei’s eyes narrowed into slits. Immediately, a blood-red longsword appeared in his palm. With a single thought, the blood-red longsword struck the Blood Wolf.

When the Blood Wolf saw this, it spread its wings and suddenly attacked Shen Fei again. Deafening rumbles rang out one after another. The Blood Wolf and Shen Fei’s bodies were both forced back a few steps.

“Flame Owl, Blazing Charge,” Shen Fei shouted.

A fiery red bird flew out from behind him in the next moment, whistling toward the Blood Wolf.

“Coo!”

The Flame Owl was very fast and appeared in front of the Blood Wolf in a flash. The Blood Wolf’s eyes glinted blood-red, and its sharp fangs emitted a cold air!

Whoosh!

However, the Flame Owl’s body disappeared right in front of the Blood Wolf. The next moment, it reappeared behind the Blood Wolf’s neck.

The Blood Wolf sensed the danger and suddenly turned pale. However, its movements were still a bit slow. The sharp talons of the Flame Owl sank into its skin and flesh!

“Grargh!” A pained scream rang out, followed by a spray of blood.

Xia’er’s eyes widened in shock. He did not expect the Flame Owl to pierce through the Blood Wolf’s head and kill it.

“So fast! What a terrifying attack speed!” Xia’er exclaimed to himself. This kind of attack speed was not something that ordinary beasts could achieve.

However, Xia’er was not worried. He had captured this Blood Wolf from the outside world, and it had a certain level of intelligence. It would not be killed so easily.
