CHAPTER 35: CHAPTER 35: THE THIRD BINDING TARGET!

Memories surged into her mind like a tide.

Nangong Luo looked at the purple little beast in front of her in shock, her heart pounding!

There’s no mistake, it’s definitely it!

This purple little beast is the renowned sacred beast.

Apart from being too small in size, it looks almost identical to how she remembered it from her previous life!

"No wonder the giant bear just now, clearly only at the mid stage of the first level, had such terrifying combat strength that even I, at the late stage of the first level, couldn’t defeat it."

It turns out it had the help of the sacred beast!

Sigh! I should have thought of it earlier!

Nangong Luo came to a sudden realization, smiled bitterly in her heart, and helplessly shook her head.

This scene feels so familiar; how could she have forgotten!

Isn’t that exactly like the Demon Emperor Nine-tailed Celestial Fox?

In her previous life, as the Empress of the Human race, she fought countless times against the Demon Emperor Nine-tailed Celestial Fox.

Even though they were at the same realm, in every confrontation, Nangong Luo was at a disadvantage and could only barely withstand the opponent’s attacks.

The biggest reason was that the opponent had the help of a sacred beast.

In terms of combat power, the sacred beast is one of the weakest among fierce beasts, with very low battle strength.

But its supportive abilities are astounding, capable of tenfold power augmentation for its host, quickly healing injuries, speeding up the refinement of spiritual objects, and more.

The Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, already terrifyingly powerful, was further enhanced by the sacred beast.

Even as an Emperor Realm being, Nangong Luo found it difficult to fight against the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox with its tenfold power boost.

"If only I could gain the sacred beast’s recognition, then the next time I encounter that Nine-tailed creature, let’s see what it fights me with!"

Nangong Luo realized, her gaze towards the sacred beast growing passionate, as if the temperature around her had risen considerably.

In her previous life, she was utterly suppressed by the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, feeling stifled for the longest time.

Unexpectedly, she now met a sacred beast.

It’s truly heaven’s blessing!

"Sacred beast... this silly and adorable little creature has such a background?"

Jiang Che was taken aback, carefully examining the soft little creature.

"Chirp!"

At that moment, the purple little beast tilted its head, staring at Jiang Che with its big eyes, blinking and letting out a cheerful chirp.

It suddenly leaped onto Jiang Che, grabbing onto his fluffy tiger fur and refusing to let go, its small paws continually moving as it tried to climb onto Jiang Che’s back.

Jiang Che’s expression changed, feeling uncomfortable, and he hurriedly shook his body, trying to shake the little fellow off.

"Chirp! Chirp!"

But before he succeeded, the purple little beast puffed its cheeks, chirped a few times, and instantly transformed into purple lines, wrapping around his neck.

The purple halo flowed continuously, adding a circle of mysterious purple to Jiang Che’s colorful fur.

At that moment, Jiang Che seemed to be wearing a glowing purple collar.

Suddenly, Jiang Che felt a connection with the purple little beast, as if their relationship had instantly become intimate.

He and the purple little beast could communicate consciously, understanding each other’s intentions.

Now, with just a thought, the purple little beast would unleash its abilities, enhancing him and providing multiple times the power boost.

Jiang Che’s mood shifted from initial astonishment to sheer delight.

"Great, great! With this power booster in hand, wouldn’t he now be invincible, smashing through any obstacle!"

Feeling comfortable, Jiang Che paced around joyfully, feeling as if he were enjoying an iced watermelon in the summer, utterly refreshing.

"Chirp——"

Seemingly sensing Jiang Che’s joy, the purple little beast manifested from the purple lines, wobbling on Jiang Che’s back, eyes squinted, letting out a soft chirp.

Seeing the purple little beast on his back, Jiang Che didn’t object, turned to look at the little creature, and smiled knowingly.

"The sacred beast recognized big brother?"

Seeing the sacred beast directly attach to Jiang Che, Nangong Luo widened her eyes in disbelief.

She shook her head and blinked rapidly to confirm she wasn’t seeing things...

"How could this be? Could the rumors from my previous life be true, that defeating the previous master of a sacred beast gains its recognition?"

Nangong Luo’s eyes flickered as she recalled everything about sacred beasts from her previous life, finally finding a reasonable explanation.

Yet, realizing she didn’t get the sacred beast, she couldn’t help but feel a pang of loss.

"Does third sister mean this little creature has acknowledged me as its master?"

A thought sparked in Jiang Che’s mind as he considered the bond between him and the little creature, immediately understanding.

This must be the self-recognition and the connection it forged.

However...defeating its master and recognizing a new one, isn’t that a traitor?

Wow, even Lü Bu couldn’t compare to you?

How many masters have you had?

Probably too many to count!

Jiang Che looked in surprise at the sacred beast pacing back and forth, internally grumbling.

"But it’s alright; as long as I’m invincible in the world, never losing a battle, it won’t have a chance to betray me!"

Jiang Che’s heart was filled with confidence, his gaze calm.

After all, beings like Fang Yuan and Nangong Luo are top-tier fierce beasts; where could one find a fierce beast capable of defeating Jiang Che?

At this moment, Nangong Luo’s emotions gradually stabilized. Looking at the playful sacred beast and Jiang Che below, her eyes were full of envy.

"This is a tremendous opportunity. Even an Emperor Realm strong entity like the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox would shamelessly fight for it... Fine, let’s just say it’s big brother’s good fortune!"

Remembering her previous encounter with the giant bear, where she was defeated and had to rely on her brother’s intervention, Nangong Luo sighed internally, knowing this sacred beast wasn’t meant for her.

If it were someone else, she would seize the sacred beast by any means necessary, whether it was destined or not, but since it was her big brother...

Eventually, she could only give up that thought.

Hearing his sister’s heartfelt words, the happiness within Jiang Che turned into a sense of gratitude.

"Good, good! My sister truly cares for me! Unlike our second sibling, who’s a lost cause in this life...it’s enough that he doesn’t try to swallow me whole!"

Just then, Jiang Che suddenly thought of his second sibling and felt disdain.

"However, it’s said that a sacred beast’s cultivation cannot vastly differ from its master’s; otherwise, the augmentation effect will be greatly reduced. I wonder if big brother can nurture this sacred beast well."

Nangong Luo’s thoughts echoed in Jiang Che’s mind again.

"It seems I’ll have to help this little guy boost its power continuously! It’s going to be busy, and I wonder if the resources we find will be enough.

Originally, it was just my sister’s mouth to feed; now there’s another one, feels a bit pressured!"

Jiang Che was a bit surprised upon hearing this, but after some thought, he let it go.

With the sacred beast’s strong supportive abilities, it’s worth the investment!

After all, it’s tenfold augmentation!

Despite having tenfold feedback, Jiang Che’s future power would definitely be terrifying, but that doesn’t stop him from gaining another tenfold boost...

Suddenly, an idea struck him.

"System, bind the sacred beast!"
