Chapter 75

Broken Bones

Due to JinYu's imperious but reasonable words, Bai Honghu – who originally held the upper hand – completely lost the advantage he thought he had.

But the situation right now was no longer as simple as just losing the advantage. On the grounds of the royal hunting academy, which had just finished its beast contract ceremony, he was about to be laughed at by thousands of people because of JinYu's words.

Even though he couldn't tell what kind of expressions were on people's faces right now, but just from the clamor and raging curses alone, Bai Honghu could guess that they were definitely going crazy with anger.

Bai Honghu stared straight at JinYu. Besides wrath and annoyance, he also felt a bit of fear. The way this person did things was the prime example of what his father used to tell him: 'fanning the ignorance of the masses'! Back then, he had shown disdain at that kind of method. Since they were ignorant masses, what was there to fan? Shouldn't the ignorant people just do whatever he told them to do?! But now that he was really experiencing criticism from the masses, Bai Honghu finally knew it was too late to regret.

Since words would no longer be able to resolve the issue, then how about force?! In any case, with his status, even if he shot the basket up to the sky, his father would still be able to fix it! What's more, the only one blocking his way was a penniless, powerless shop owner. Perfect, if he killed off this road-blocker, he could also nab the man's six A-rank beasts all for himself! That way, his father would definitely praise him!!

So, as Bai Honghu's thoughts whirled, he swiftly formed a hand gesture. He would've never guessed that, just because of his one hand gesture, it would cause his Bai family to be driven out of the political circle in the future, and nearly even wiped out by their enemies!

When Bai Honghu made the hand gesture, what happened first wasn't actually Qi Qinglin, but DaBai. Even though boss was wholeheartedly concentrated on his mate, his feelings towards others was quite blunt. In any case, Qi Qinglin could guarantee that he could eliminate anyone before they made a move, so when there was no attack, he wouldn't care.

But DaBai wasn't the same.

DaBai had followed Bai Honghu for twenty entire years. Those twenty years was enough for it – a devoted beast – to figure out all of its master's moves, and even how he thought!! So when Bai Honghu made that movement, DaBai knew that Bai Honghu wanted to kill someone! In a mere instant, all of DaBai's fur stood on end, and even its heart chilled.

It truly didn't want to believe that its former master was someone so vicious and merciless. It even remembered how its master used to ignore all social invitations to accompany it when it got hurt, and clumsily cook a grand beast banquet for it... Even if the master only did that when he still young, no matter what, its master had once treated it kindly. Except, it just didn't understand from what point onwards its somewhat awkward but very sincere master had changed, becoming blinded by greed and ignorantly arrogant, so much so that even now he was just as self-serving and reckless as before.

It abruptly faced the sky and howled. With a distraught expression, DaBai flew towards Bai Honghu, its speed fast enough to astonish the others. Simultaneously, six shadow guards flew out from nowhere, and they were all buried firmly half into the ground!!

Roar—roar—roar—!!

Each howl was more and more mournful and sorrowful as it came from DaBai's mouth. Its claws pressed Bai Honghu firmly onto the ground, but it kept its head raised, refusing to look at him.
