Teaching the Auspicious Beast a Self-Created Soul Skill

At first, Bibi Dong had thought the little golden beast looked extraordinary.

But when she saw her speaking to her annoying junior brother like a little puppy, Bibi Dong's eyes instantly went wide.

She planted her hands on her hips and huffed indignantly at the Three-Eyed Golden Lion:

"Hey, why should my annoying junior brother teach you for nothing?"

"Who do you think you are?"

Bibi Dong had already been shocked that Lin Chuan could create his own Soul Skills.

Now, a golden puppy that had appeared from who knew where was asking to freeload her junior brother's Soul Skill the moment she opened her mouth.

That left her extremely displeased.

After all, even she, Bibi Dong, had yet to learn anything from her annoying junior brother.

And most importantly, this beast was acting far too familiar with him.

Hearing this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion could not help thinking, That's true. I haven't said what I'll give him in return yet.

Humans are all greedy for money. Maybe I could give him gold from the Star Dou Great Forest...

While the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was letting her imagination wander, Bibi Dong pressed on:

"And those names you were babbling about just now-who are Di Tian and the Scarlet King?"

"Are they Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Hearing this, Qian Xunji and the others behind Bibi Dong also grew very curious.

As far as Spirit Hall's records went, there seemed to be no Soul Beasts called Di Tian or the Scarlet King.

Could they be some rare species?

Lin Chuan, who knew the answer, remained silent at the side and pretended to be curious as well.

Listening to Bibi Dong's questions, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion said with a hint of disdain:

"Tch! Who else could Di Tian and the Scarlet King be?"

"They're the two most annoying fellows in the Star Dou Great Forest."

"One's a big black dragon who wears a stern face all day. Every day, he won't let me go here or there. He's so annoying."

"As for the Scarlet King, he's a big red dog with three heads, all fierce and mean."

"Every time I sneak out, he catches me."

At this point, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's eyes darted around before settling on Lin Chuan again, and she said:

"I'm not the sort of beast who takes advantage of others for nothing."

"As long as you're willing to teach me how to weave light into clothes and turn invisible, Lin Chuan, I can give you something good in return."

Hearing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's words, Qian Xunji was instantly startled.

She paid no attention to what the Three-Eyed Golden Lion could offer as payment.

For that big black dragon and three-headed dog to look after such a miraculous Soul Beast as a junior, a little thought made it clear that they were definitely Soul Beasts far beyond a hundred thousand years.

To think this Soul Beast was actually a junior of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts!

Just as Lin Chuan was about to speak, Bibi Dong laughed and said:

"Big words."

"What good things could you possibly offer?"

"My annoying junior brother is at rank twenty now, and he happens to need a Soul Ring between three thousand and five thousand years old. Do you have one?"

"Or are you planning to offer yourself to him?"

Hearing this, Lin Chuan hurriedly tugged at Bibi Dong.

Oh, dear mother, that scared me to death.

Lin Chuan tried to smooth things over. "My senior sister didn't mean it that way."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion proudly puffed out her chest.

"Hmph, even if a human wanted to absorb me, they couldn't."

"Although I'm only five thousand years old, I can easily swat a five-thousand-year Soul Beast to death."

"Besides, the entire Star Dou Great Forest is my territory. What's a mere five-thousand-year Soul Beast?"

Hearing this, Bibi Dong rolled her eyes. "The entire Star Dou Great Forest is your territory, huh?"

Lin Chuan hurriedly covered the mouth of Bibi Dong, who feared neither heaven nor earth.

If Di Tian and the Scarlet King actually found out about this, we'd probably be done for.

But looking at the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's playful disposition, he could only find a way to coax and handle this little ancestor.

Besides, he might really get a suitable five-thousand-year Soul Ring out of it. That would be wonderful.

He said, "Three-Eyed Golden Lion, teaching you isn't out of the question."

Hearing this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion trotted a couple of steps toward Lin Chuan on her little paws.

"Really?"

Lin Chuan smiled and said:

"I can teach you, but this concealment Soul Skill of mine is something I created by modifying my First Soul Skill."

"I can teach you the techniques I've grasped, but whether you can learn them depends on your own ability."

"If you can't learn it, don't blame me."

Hearing this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion proudly raised her little head and said:

"I possess Ultimate Light. Even Di Tian praises my abilities."

"It's just a little trick. Teach me, and I'll definitely learn it."

Hearing this, Lin Chuan's smile deepened.

He had effectively given her a disclaimer in advance.

If things went off the rails later, it would not be his fault.

Yet the Three-Eyed Golden Lion had not understood that point at all.

Under the strange looks of Qian Xunji, Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and Bibi Dong, Lin Chuan stood before the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, gathered his Soul Power, and used his Light Weaving, saying:

"The reason you can see everything before you-this rock, this tree-is that light shines on them and then enters your eyes."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion lay on the ground, her two large eyes fixed attentively on Lin Chuan, and nodded.

"Mm-hmm, I know."

Looking at the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Lin Chuan could not help feeling very doubtful.

He felt that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was just like Haji Dong-the type to let things go in one ear and out the other.

Lin Chuan continued, "So concealing yourself doesn't mean you vanish into thin air. It means deceiving other people's eyes."

He then demonstrated his Soul Skill.

Before the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's eyes, Lin Chuan disappeared just like that.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion immediately grew excited and said:

"That's it! I want to learn that! Lin Chuan, I want to learn that!"

At that moment, as the Emperor Auspicious Beast who controlled Ultimate Light, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion felt as though she would master it any second.

Reality, however, left her thoroughly frustrated.

After several attempts, she could only conceal part of herself each time.

Either she hid only her head, or only her paws, or left a little golden rump exposed.

Seeing this, Bibi Dong burst out laughing and said:

"Oh, I can't take it anymore! Why is this so funny?"

Bibi Dong felt as though she was about to laugh herself to tears.

Off to the side, Qian Xunji, who had maintained her vigilance and dignity all this time, nearly lost her composure as well, the corners of her lips curling into a smile.

This talking Soul Beast really was rather cute.

Meanwhile, the corners of Yue Guan's and Gui Mei's mouths twitched even more.

It was their first time seeing a Soul Beast that combined nobility and ridiculousness.

Hearing Bibi Dong's laughter, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked back at her exposed rump and spun around in embarrassed annoyance, saying:

"A mistake! That was definitely a mistake! I'll succeed any second now!"

Holding back his laughter, Lin Chuan patiently instructed the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, "Try a few more times."

This time, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion gritted her teeth. The vertical eye on her forehead unleashed tremendous power, and she mobilized all the Soul Power in her body.

Then a layer of light covered her.

This time, her body, limbs, and tail were indeed concealed.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked excitedly at her little paws, which had vanished without a trace, and said:

"Lin Chuan, did I succeed?"

With a strange expression, Lin Chuan said:

"You succeeded in part. Your head is still showing."

Watching the Three-Eyed Golden Lion cover her head only to expose her rear, then cover her rear only to expose her head, he could not help finding it rather funny.
