Hearing this, Pei Yusheng froze on the spot, the sinister look on his face shifting slightly.
Then, rather than anger or grief, he began to smile strangely and murmured, "What an impressive heir of Ba Hun. You actually managed to get Fenglei Bao killed. I'm afraid my eldest uncle may very well meet his end here too."
Naturally, he still did not know that Pei Chang was already dead.
Wind Thunder Roaring Beast was growing somewhat anxious and murmured again, "Young Master, I'm afraid we need to go save someone."
Fenglei Bao was its master. Of course it had to save him.
Yet Pei Yusheng gently reassured it, "I'm afraid it's already too late. You should focus on eating Black Flash Thunder Dragon. If Fenglei Bao dies, you can follow me openly and honestly."
As his words fell...
Wind Thunder Roaring Beast's enormous eyes flickered several times. Its anxiety then vanished, and it resumed devouring Black Flash Thunder Dragon.
As it ate, it said, "That's true. Young Master is an unimaginably wondrous existence among humans. Even after I reach the Saint Martial Stage, I will still follow you. That is what my heart and will tell me."
"Because once Young Master grows in the future, you will certainly be able to keep helping me raise my realm. Fenglei Bao cannot compare to that."
According to the longstanding rules of the Central Plains...
Once demonic beasts reached the Saint Martial Stage, their bloodlines would fully awaken. The things within their memories would tell them that they shared a deep, bitter hatred with humanity, causing them to leave their masters. Yet Wind Thunder Roaring Beast clearly told Pei Yusheng that it would not leave.
Because something deep within its bloodline memories told it that Pei Yusheng could help it evolve and grow.
