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

71 Cleaning Up The Aftermath

“It seems my stupid little brother has done a lot of distasteful things.”

The mayor could not help but feel sad. ‘How did things come to this?’

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Lear panted, but it was hard to breathe.

From within the black tide, hundreds of hands stretched out and dragged him into the darkness. Lear struggled in that endless black ocean with all his might. The cold salty seawater poured into his mouth, causing him to retch.

“Damn that Shen Fei!” Lear continued to struggle in the waves, glaring ahead in anger.

‘Shen Fei must be somewhere in the Black Sea! When I find him, I’ll definitely skin him alive!’

“What’s wrong with him?” Aloy watched Lear and his spirit beast in confusion.

After the Three-clawed Golden Dragon made its move, he and his spirit beast suddenly fell into a strange state.

“Perhaps he’s having a bad dream,” Shen Fei casually replied. “Three-clawed Golden Dragon, don’t give them any chance. Finish them off now! Ray of Destruction!”

With Shen Fei’s order, the Three-clawed Golden Dragon immediately perched itself on the load-bearing pillar in the living room. A wisp of demonic dark elements circulated around the Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s body rapidly, flowing through the gaps between its scales and up to its neck bit by bit.

The dark elements in the surrounding area gathered rapidly in the Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s mouth.

BOOM!

A huge beam of black light suddenly shot toward Lear’s Dissolving Beast. The entire body of the spirit beast was buried deep within the beam of light.

“Gurgle!”

The Dissolving Beast howled in pain, its mud-like body rapidly disintegrating under the beam of light! In the next second, only a pitch-black crater was left where the Dissolving Beast once was.

Clap, clap, clap!

In the empty hall, someone was clapping.

Shen Fei followed the applause and looked upstairs. The mayor of the city stood up and applauded Shen Fei from the bottom of his heart.

“What a beautiful duel. Shen Fei, I think I can roughly understand why my daughter would take a fancy to someone like you.”

“...Thank you?”

This praise caused Shen Fei to have mixed feelings for a moment. He could not tell if the mayor was praising him or scolding him.

“Mr. Guo, we should wake the rest of the attendees.”

“At once, Master Edward!” The old butler held onto the railing of the third floor with one hand and agilely hopped over it and jumped straight onto the second floor.

He raised his hand, and a bear-like doll spirit beast immediately appeared in his hand. The doll seemed to have a life of its own. It jumped down from the old butler’s hand and rushed toward the young masters.

“Don’t touch me!”

The young masters were in a rumpled state, and they growled at the little bear like animals. The Little Bear gave them a look and then slapped their faces hard.

Smack! Smack! Smack!

The resounding slaps instantly woke everyone up.

“What happened?!”

Zhang Youcheng covered his red and swollen face, looking as though he had just woken up from a dream. His hair, which had been tied up at the back of his head, was now scattered on his shoulders, and he looked extremely messy.

He looked at Li Yuan, who was also confused. He had no idea what had just happened, either.

“Young masters, you were all asleep just now and missed a good show.”

The butler smiled and brought more Little Bears to bring some tea for the young masters.

“You were all having nightmares. Now, make sure to have good rest.”

After saying this, the butler immediately hopped down onto the first floor with the rest of his Little Bears.

Zhang Youcheng covered his swollen and dizzy head. He supported his body with great difficulty and looked downstairs. Recalling the dream he just had, Zhang Youcheng still had lingering fears.

Why did he suddenly dream of those things? Could it be that he had accidentally breathed in the poisonous mist of that Dissolving Beast?

‘Heh, heh, since that’s the case, then Shen Fei, who was closest to the spirit beast, must have fainted long ago.’

Thinking of this, Zhang Youcheng’s lips curved into a proud smile. However, when he looked at the ground where the butler had jumped down to, he was shocked.

The Dissolving Beast had long since disappeared, leaving behind a pool of stinky mud made of some unknown substance.

Shen Fei’s Three-clawed Golden Dragon magnificently spiraled around the pillar, its eyes were filled with white and fierce light as it looked at him.

Almost subconsciously, Zhang Youcheng swallowed his saliva and immediately looked away.

‘What happened?’

The young masters looked at each other, but none of them could tell what had happened.

...

“Grandpa Guo!”

Aloy walked to the butler’s side with happy steps and picked up the butler’s spirit beast from the ground.

“Biff, biff.”

The Little Bear happily spread its arms and pressed them against Aloy’s face. Aloy smiled. Every time she picked up the Little Bear, she always felt particularly happy.

“Young Mistress, you weren’t injured just now, were you?” The butler’s expression was a little anxious. He quickly took out a green pill from his pocket and handed it to Aloy.

“No, I’ve been covering my nose and mouth with my clothes, so I didn’t inhale much.” Aloy took the pill from her butler and stuffed it into her mouth.

“That’s good. Since you are well, I am relieved.” The butler turned around and respectfully handed the pill to Shen Fei. “Young Master Shen, please enjoy.”

“Thank you, Grandpa Guo.”

Shen Fei smiled and thanked the butler in the same tone as Aloy had. He popped the pill into his mouth, and, after chewing for a bit, an indescribable fragrance burst out from his mouth. All the fatigue in his body was instantly swept away.

‘This inconspicuous mansion is truly filled with all kinds of hidden wonders.’

Shen Fei chewed the pill in his mouth and carefully sized up the Little Bears that were busying about in the distance.

The spirit beast of the Gelin family butler did not look very powerful, but the butler himself had not been affected by the Dark Spirit Intimidation at all. His strength was definitely extraordinary. At the very least, he had to be a Master-tier Beastmaster.

Today’s banquet was not a simple affair. After all, they had even prepared this kind of antidote pill in advance. It seemed that they had already known what would happen.

BOOM!

At the side, Lear’s hair was disheveled. He clenched his teeth and knocked against the walls around him.

Suddenly, he stretched out his arm and grabbed the pillar. Baring his teeth, he fiercely said, “Shen Fei, I’m going to kill you!”

“Eh?!” Shen Fei took two steps back, his mouth twitching in exasperation.

‘Looking at this guy’s reaction, it doesn’t seem like he’s pretending. Could it be some last-minute performance?’

Suddenly, the butler turned around and looked at Shen Fei respectfully. “Young Master Shen, our mayor has something to discuss with you. Please come with me after I’m done with matters here.”

“Alright,” he said. Shen Fei firmly nodded his head.
