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

248 The Saber-tooth Tiger King’s “Docility”

Shen Fei could clearly feel that the presence of this Saber-toothed Tiger King was incredibly formidable!

Though they were far away, the students could not help but tremble. This was undoubtedly an Emperor-rank spirit beast of the highest grade.

One of the students gulped audibly. His eyes were wide and face pale.

As soon as the Saber-toothed Tiger King got close, everyone had the impression that it was impossible to fight against it and they would die for sure.

Shen Fei and the others held their breaths as they watched the Saber-toothed Tiger King with eyes filled with caution and fear. However, just as the Saber-toothed Tiger King was less than a hundred meters away from them…

…it suddenly stopped. Its eyes flickered as though it was hesitating whether to continue or not.

“Huh? What’s going on?” Everyone was stunned and watched on in confusion.

Shen Fei was just as clueless as them. He could not understand what this Saber-toothed Tiger King was trying to do.

“Graar!” The Black Sun suddenly roared.

After it heard the Black Sun’s voice, that Saber-toothed Tiger King seemed to react as though it was being called to by something. It raised its head and looked up at the sky with a burning gaze. The Saber-toothed Tiger King’s body struggled violently, as though it was in great pain.

“Huh? It seems to be communicating with someone…”

“The Saber-toothed Tiger King wants to become a disciple of the Black Sun!”

“Gasp… Is that what’s happening?”

Everyone suddenly realized what was happening, and their expressions changed drastically into looks of shock, including Shen Fei’s.

There were many different types of spirit beasts among these wild and demonic beasts, each with their own special characteristics. Among them, there was a type of spirit beast that had a unique bloodline that could resonate with other spirit beasts.

One such example was this Saber-toothed Tiger King. It resonated with the Black Sun because it recognized its own kind. As long as it was of the same race, it would resonate with that creature.

“Maybe this Saber-toothed Tiger King sensed the presence of its own kind. That’s why it followed us.”

Shen Fei frowned. ‘How could the Saber-toothed Tiger King and Black Sun be of the same race?’

One was a spirit beast while the other was a mutated exotic beast. They were obviously not the same race.

Shen Fei immediately rejected this guess. “No, that’s not it. It’s the Saber-toothed Tiger King’s scheme. It wants to deceive us.”

‘If that were true, then wasn’t it a little too cunning?’

“Roar!” The Saber-toothed Tiger King let out an excited roar.

At that moment, the Black Sun swooped down from the sky. The moment the Saber-toothed Tiger King saw the Black Sun, it became even more excited and ran to welcome it.

The Saber-toothed Tiger King was as quick as lightning. In a second, it turned into an afterimage and crashed through the tree crown, breaking the towering tree. It landed back on the ground steadily, raised its head, and puffed out its chest. It then gave the Black Sun a proud look.

This tall and sturdy black tiger was extremely burly, and had an overbearing aura. This impression was mostly due to it being a higher Emperor-rank spirit beast.

Shen Fei and the others were very surprised. They stared dazedly at the Saber-toothed Tiger King, thoughts flying tumultuously through their heads.

‘The Saber-toothed Tiger King’s speed was too terrifying!’

‘It’s probably faster than the speed of sound!’

They then decided to voice those thoughts as well.

“This tiger has such terrifying speed!”

“It’s too scary!”

“Mommy! I can feel death coming!”

The crowd was panicking in fright.

Shen Fei was shocked as well and voiced a similar thought, “What amazing speed!”

At this time, the Saber-toothed Tiger King’s gaze was pinned on the Black Sun. Its eyes shone and the excited look on its face had not disappeared. It obviously wanted to go with the Black Sun.

“Does it want to follow the Black Sun?” Shen Fei’s eyes gleamed.

‘This is too wonderful!’

A Saber-toothed Tiger King was a higher-grade Emperor-rank spirit beast, and extremely powerful. If they had the Saber-toothed Tiger King, then their chances of getting to safety would be even greater.

The Saber-toothed Tiger King suddenly appeared beside the Black Sun. It rubbed its head against the Black Sun’s body, showing an intimate gesture.

“Purr…”

“Graar…” The Black Sun let out a strange noise and stretched out its claws to gently caress the Saber-toothed Tiger King’s fur.

Everyone was shocked by this scene.

“So the Saber-toothed Tiger King can actually act coquettishly…”

“What the heck? The spirit beast is actually acting cute?”

“This is so strange, I can hardly believe it!”

“This is the first time I’m seeing an Emperor-rank spirit beast act like a spoiled child!”

The students were all dumbfounded, and found it difficult to wrap their heads around this.

Although Shen Fei was shocked as well, he somehow expected this. The Saber-toothed Tiger King was powerful and possessed extraordinary intelligence, after all. Since it knew that the Black Sun’s strength was just as terrifying, it had made its decision to follow it. The Saber-toothed Tiger King was acting coquettishly in an attempt to please the Black Sun.

Shen Fei and the students did not know whether to laugh or cry at the sight of this Saber-toothed Tiger King acting like a child.

“Purr…” The Black Sun let out a low sound and patted the Saber-toothed Tiger King’s head with its sharp claws, as though it was teaching a child a lesson.

The Saber-toothed Tiger King was not to be outdone and growled huffily. Everyone could not help but laugh at this scene. The Saber-toothed Tiger King’s expression was hilarious, and looked like a whiny brat.

“What game are they playing?” Yang Xiaoxuan asked curiously, feeling very confused.

“They’re making friends.” Shen Fei chuckled.

The Saber-toothed Tiger King and the Black Sun bantered for a few seconds before letting out low roars. Their eyes were filled with joy. The Saber-toothed Tiger King wagged its tail in a friendly manner at Shen Fei and the others. Then, it walked around the Black Sun elegantly. It went in front of the Black Sun and growled a few times.

“Is it asking you if you’re willing to let it come with you?” Shen Fei asked the Black Sun.

The Black Sun shook its head slightly. The Saber-toothed Tiger King suddenly showed a regretful expression, then lay on the ground and licked the Black Sun as though it was begging.

“Graar…” The Black Sun let out a strange cry, like it was telling the Saber-toothed Tiger King to stop pestering it.

At this, the Saber-toothed Tiger King growled twice in a low voice. It then stood up, and walked back into the depths of the forest.

“Sigh…” Shen Fei sighed.

“Graar?” The Black Sun looked at him with a confused expression. It did not understand what Shen Fei meant by that sigh.

“You are the Saber-toothed Tiger King’s final obsession. It won’t stop until it reaches its goal,” Shen Fei said.

The Black Sun nodded and did not prompt him for more explanation.

“Roar!” The Saber-toothed Tiger King let out a low roar of anger before it disappeared fully into the forest depths.

“Graar!” The Black Sun let out a strange cry.

The Saber-toothed Tiger King responded from a distance with another deep and angry roar.

The Black Sun, as though it was provoked, suddenly leaped up and dove at the Saber-toothed Tiger King. The Saber-toothed Tiger King roared loudly and its entire body exploded with metal-attribute spiritual Qi that emitted a dazzling golden light. The golden spiritual energy churned, and a fearsome aura spread out, causing everyone to become extremely frightened.

The Black Sun was not to be outdone, and it, too, released its own golden spiritual energy.

Within a split second, there was an explosive sound that echoed through the area. The two spiritual energies collided, forming a storm that swept all over the place.

The Saber-toothed Tiger King was violently catapulted away.

‘It seems like the Black Sun doesn’t like the Saber-toothed Tiger King anymore, and wants to have a showdown with it,’ Shen Fei thought.

The Black Sun’s body was far larger than the Saber-toothed Tiger King, so it had the upper hand.
