Ye Chen looked at the little qilin, thinking he could see through the mystery. Who knew he would see a woman instead?
It was a lively maiden with an exquisite face, a delicate and elegant figure, giving off a noble aura.
"What is this, an immortal maiden?" Ye Chen's Heavenly Eye opened wide as he looked at the maiden, feeling an indescribable shock.
The maiden was lively, exceptionally beautiful, emitting a crystalline glow, resembling an immortal maiden!
"You've actually cultivated the Heavenly Eye!" The maiden's bright eyes looked at Ye Chen in surprise.
"Who are you?" Ye Chen asked in confusion. "Why are you inside the little qilin?"
"Humph!" The maiden didn't answer him, merely chuckled coldly, showing a hint of pride.
"Are you the little qilin, transformed into human form?" Ye Chen suddenly thought of something.
"Humph, at least you have some brains, not completely foolish!" The maiden said arrogantly.
"So it is!" Ye Chen's eyes shone brightly.
With martial arts' Heavenly Eye that sees through all illusions, Ye Chen glanced at the little qilin, and saw the maiden, making his soul tremble.
Ye Chen thought the maiden was a great being, but soon woke up to the realization that it wasn't a great being at all, but the little qilin had made a big breakthrough, transforming into human form!
"Ye Chen, our karma is severed. From now on, we are no longer connected!"
The little qilin's body trembled, then transformed into a maiden. She was covered in scale armor, lively and transcendent, with an indescribable sacredness.
"I've raised you for so long, nurturing you from a beast to a human, and you say it's over just like that!" Ye Chen shouted.
"Pah!" The qilin maiden said, "You brought me here, but didn't care about my life or death, only using your smelly feet to kick me daily. I managed to transform into human form through my own hard cultivation, it has nothing to do with you!"
"..."
Ye Chen awkwardly smiled, scratching his head. That's just how things were, he couldn't argue or say anything.
"Hurry and break the contract, let's part ways here!" The qilin maiden held her small face high.
"Contract?" Ye Chen asked in surprise.
"It's the kind of connection between you and me. As long as you calm your mind and concentrate on Baihui, you can sever that connection!" The qilin maiden said.
"Oh, I'll break it right away..." Ye Chen answered dazedly.
"..." The qilin maiden focused her gaze on Ye Chen, an indescribable tension as she awaited Ye Chen to break the seal.
Ever since waking from slumber, the little qilin was hunted down, unable to escape, so she had to choose Ye Chen as her master.
Ye Chen had immense potential, even stronger than her, with a Saint backing him. The little qilin was quite pleased with this master.
After witnessing Ye Chen's strength, the little qilin began daydreaming, thinking she could live a happy and peaceful life without needing to cultivate.
Who knew Ye Chen would run to a group of women and settle in Baihua Palace, which made the little qilin quite dissatisfied.
However, picking a chicken, follow a chicken; picking a dog, follow a dog. The little qilin could only accept it.
But Ye Chen leaving for more than a year, completely neglecting her, that was something the little qilin couldn't tolerate anymore.
She wasn't a small sow or a little sparrow to be raised freely. She was a sacred qilin, king of mythical beasts. Ye Chen's neglect was intolerable to the little qilin.
Moreover, with her transformed into human form, her strength vastly increased, she had the power to protect herself and no longer needed Ye Chen's shelter.
Thus, the qilin maiden planned to go solo, abandoning Ye Chen, the unqualified master!
"Little qilin." Ye Chen looked at the maiden.
"What's wrong, is the contract hard to sever?" The qilin maiden asked.
"I want to ask a question, can I?" Ye Chen said seriously.
"Hmm." The qilin maiden nodded, thinking the contract was difficult to break and Ye Chen had a question.
"My question is, are you the fool, or am I the fool?" Ye Chen said. "Having a qilin as a battle pet is something even a Saint would envy. Why would I release a qilin?"
"My brain hasn't been kicked by a donkey. Why would I sever the contract with you?" Ye Chen looked at the qilin maiden in disdain.
"Y-you agreed just now!" The qilin maiden was furious.
"That's why I ask you, are you the fool, or am I the fool?" Ye Chen said.
"..."
The qilin maiden realized Ye Chen never intended to release her, he was just teasing her!
"Little qilin, come over here and rub my feet. I'll reward you with candy if I'm happy!" Ye Chen looked at the qilin maiden with a bright and intimidating gaze.
After transforming into human form, the little qilin became profound and mysterious, even making Ye Chen unable to grasp her.
Ye Chen showed great interest in this water-like maiden.
"Pah, who wants to rub your smelly feet!" The qilin maiden said vehemently. "Your smelly feet haven't been washed for three years. I despise people with stinky feet the most!"
Before transforming, the qilin maiden was often kicked around by Ye Chen's feet, she absolutely despised his "stinky feet".
"Damn it, how dare you slander me, saying I haven't washed my feet for three years!" Ye Chen was furious. "I wash my feet four times a year, once each in spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Don't wrongly accuse people!"
A strong martial artist's genes are perfect, their body untouched by dirt, their feet don't sweat, and they can go a year without a bath and still stay clean. The Qilin girl said his feet stank, accusing him of not washing them for three years, which was clearly a deliberate jab at him.
"You really know how to disgust someone!" the Qilin girl said. "Hurry up and release the contract, I can't acknowledge you as my master anymore!"
"You're such a little clown!" Ye Chen glanced at her and then turned and walked away.
The little Qilin took human form, transcending the shore, and gained immense combat power with the strength to protect her life.
Ye Chen had always worried about the little Qilin's safety. Since she had broken through to a higher realm and was safe, he could be at ease.
Ye Chen was about to ascend to the position of Saint Heir and had many preparations to make; he truly didn't have time to argue with the little Qilin.
"Ye Chen, don't run away, hurry up and release the contract, and then we'll have nothing to do with each other!" the Qilin girl said anxiously.
"You just stay put!" Ye Chen said. "I am going to establish the Heavenly Court in the future, and I need you, this auspicious beast, to hold down the fort, so I can't let you leave!"
The Qilin is an auspicious beast, the king of divine beasts, and it's more significant than any divine artifact.
Ye Chen had great ambitions and needed the Qilin's assistance, so how could he let her go?
"Bastard, who wants to help you hold down the Heavenly Court, hurry up and lift the seal!" the Qilin girl said angrily.
"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will cripple you with a slap!" Ye Chen said menacingly.
"..."
The Qilin girl immediately fell silent; she had formed a soul contract with Ye Chen and could feel his immense strength most keenly.
Ye Chen's life potential was like that of gods and demons, a thousand times stronger than hers; even if she had ascended to the Great Venerable of the Other Shore, she probably wouldn't be a match for Ye Chen.
"Qilin?"
At this moment, an enchanting woman descended to the scene, looking at the Qilin girl in surprise.
"Dragon Clan!" The Qilin girl screamed in fright upon seeing the newcomer and hid behind Ye Chen.
"Long Chan, why is the little Qilin afraid of you?" Ye Chen asked curiously.
The woman who had descended was Long Chan. Seeing the little Qilin terrified, hiding behind him, Ye Chen found it very strange.
"The Dragon Clan's bloodline can evolve, but relying solely on cultivation would make this evolution slow!"
"However, the flesh and blood of a Qilin is greatly nourishing for the Dragon Clan. By devouring a Qilin, the Dragon Clan's bloodline genes can be activated to an unimaginable degree!"
The Dragon Clan was very familiar with the aura of Qilin because during their glorious era, they once hunted Qilin across the world to awaken their bloodline.
However, Qilin were extremely rare, and the Dragon Clan seldom succeeded. They rarely managed to hunt a Qilin.
But the fact that Ye Chen had a Qilin at his side astonished Long Chan and stirred a predatory impulse within her.
"Damn Dragon Clan, you killed countless of my ancestors, I hate you!" the Qilin girl snarled at Long Chan.
"We have hunted Qilin, but we rarely killed them, merely fed on their flesh and blood," Long Chan said coldly.
Qilin were a precious resource and had great combat power. Had their numbers not been so few, they would have long become an invincible Ancient Clan.
The Dragon Clan had hunted Qilin, but fearing their extinction, they never killed them; they just carved off the flesh and left them.
In this way, the Qilin wouldn't go extinct, and the Dragon Clan would continue to have prey.
"The Dragon Clan is despicable!" the Qilin girl said.
"Haha, you accuse me out of nowhere, I'll show you despicable, stripping the flesh clean off of you!" Long Chan looked at the Qilin girl, a strange light flashing in her eyes.
Qilin were a great supplement to the Dragon Clan; if Long Chan consumed the Qilin girl, her power would undoubtedly skyrocket, perhaps equaling Ye Chen.
"Long Chan!" Ye Chen blocked Long Chan. "The Qilin is my divine beast, and has great future value. It's best not to harm her!"
Long Chan was a peerless beauty, stunningly beautiful, but she was also cruel and capable of anything.
The blood and flesh of a Qilin could stimulate the Dragon Clan's bloodline. Even if Long Chan didn't kill the Qilin girl, she would probably strip her flesh.
Ye Chen still needed the Qilin to suppress the Heavenly Court. He didn't want Long Chan to harm her, which would leave the little Qilin with scars.
"Qilin flesh is greatly nourishing and can awaken my bloodline to become infinitely powerful!" Long Chan looked at Ye Chen. "Moreover, with me by your side, what would you still need the Qilin for?"
"..."
The Qilin is the king of divine beasts, with a bloodline superior to that of the Dragon Clan, but Long Chan, being the Dragon Esteem's daughter, represents supreme authority and legitimacy!
Moreover, bloodlines are but one part; strength is what truly matters!
Long Chan's power far exceeded that of the Qilin girl. With her special status, she could easily suppress a region's fate!
"The Dragon Clan?" The Qilin girl sneered. "I am the divine Qilin, shrouded in auspicious purple energy, with the world's fortune in my hands. Do you have my grand fortune?"
The Qilin is an auspicious beast, surrounded by primordial energy and stepping on good fortune. This is a divine honor no one can compare to.
"I may not have your grand fortune!" Long Chan said. "But didn't you want to be free from Ye Chen?"
