One of his... tamed beasts??
Never mind Zhao Donglai and Qin Yuan's husband-even Qin Yuan found those words exaggerated and absurd.
Even the worldly Qin Xuanji struggled to remain composed after hearing them.
She immediately turned to look and, sure enough, spotted someone standing on the enormous Golden Thunder Sacred Lion's back.
Earlier, all her attention had been drawn to the divine beast, leaving her no time to notice him.
With his tall, upright figure and air of immortal grace, he truly looked the part of an immortal!
Soon, the Golden Thunder Sacred Lion leaped down from the sky on seven-colored auspicious clouds, arriving before Zhao Donglai, Qin Yuan, and the others.
It lowered itself to the ground in a posture of submission.
To whom?
To Chen Mu, naturally.
Then Su Feng jumped down from the giant lion's back, strode briskly over to Chen Mu, and knelt in homage. "Your disciple Su Feng pays his respects, Master."
Just as with Supreme Lord Lao, Chen Mu had configured their relationship as master and disciple beforehand.
Of course, that was merely a form of address, a change in wording. In reality, their relationship remained that of master and servant.
Whatever Chen Mu said, he had to obey. Even if ordered to die, he could not defy him.
For figures like Su Feng brought forth through Mythic Summoning, Chen Mu's commands carried more weight than the words of the Heavenly Dao!
"..." Qin Xuanji.
"..." Qin Yuan.
"..." Zhao Donglai.
"Mm, rise." Chen Mu nodded.
"Third Aunt, from now on, this man will be at your command. Whether you want him to teach his Beast Taming experience or head to the border to repel the Beast Tide is entirely up to you," Chen Mu told Qin Yuan.
In short: just don't come looking
