Beast Taming: I can even raise gods and demons!

Chapter 191 Encountering the Li Family! (4210 words)

The mountain wind howled, and a chill swept through the air.

The three beasts, including the Heavy Beetle King, led Chen Fan and the others to a cliff halfway up a mountain.

Shen Daodao let out a miserable howl and said, "Brother Fan, let's rest before we go. I feel like my bones have been shaken apart."

The woman riding the Dragonblood Lion with him tilted her head and vomited violently.

Ye Hao's face showed disdain: "This is the third-grade realm? You get carsick riding a beast?"

The woman on the back of the Dragonblood Lion roared in fury, "What do you know?!"

"I'm tied up like a dumpling, I can't lie down, I can't crawl... and this Dragon Blood Lion jumps around, leaping several meters high, unlike the Heavy Beetle King which is stable. It's shaking my bones to pieces!"

Ye Hao glanced at Chen Fan and Chu Xuan with envy.

The heavy beetle king has many legs, moves smoothly, and is fast.

But the Dragon Blood Lion, like the Heavenly Desolate Divine Ox, was extremely erratic.

Most importantly, neither Shen Daodao nor he had ever ridden their own beasts for such a long and continuous run before.

"Let's take a break."

Chen Fan jumped off the Heavy Beetle King and lay down on the grass.

The grass in this world is so comfortable...

The weeds were tall and dense, and very resilient. Once you lay down, it was so comfortable that you didn't want to get up.

However, most people wouldn't dare to be as bold as Chen Fan.

Because nobody knows if a nest of snakes or some other terrifying monster might crawl out from under those several-meter-high grass.

Little Whitey darted down and snuggled into Chen Fan's arms.

Gangzi and Emerald also jumped over and used Chen Fan's lap as a pillow.

Xiaoqing was cautious and, together with the old ape, positioned themselves on either side of the perimeter, forming a vigilant line.

The jungle and the mountains are fraught with danger, and they dare not be careless at all.

"My back..."

Shen Daodao rubbed his lower back and said, "Chu Xuan, how about you ride the Dragonblood Lion and I'll ride the Heavy Beetle King?"

Chu Xuan: "Get lost."

"Damn it!" Shen Daodao lay down next to Chen Fan.

Seeing that everyone was resting there, the Dragonblood Lion suddenly jerked its body, sending the woman on its back flying with a bang.

"Damn it..."

The woman fell onto the grass and angrily began to curse.

A phoenix that has lost its feathers is no better than a chicken. It's bad enough that she's bullied by those little brats, but even her tamed beasts are bullying her!

Sudden……

Ye Hao exclaimed with delight, "We have a signal! Brother Fan, we have a signal!"

Chen Fan said without looking up, "It's more than a hundred miles from here to the Flashing Swamp. If we do the math, it's quite close to the Demon City. It should be only about two hundred miles, less than three hundred miles."

"Ask Zhen Qing and Uncle Qian how they are doing?"

"We're asking right now!" Ye Hao said. "Hahaha, it's alright! Everything's fine! They've already arrived in Shanghai before us!"

"Old Qin from Donghai City came over and crushed a sixth-grade cultivator to death."

"The other one was also crippled..."

At this point, Ye Hao glanced warily at the woman on the grass and didn't continue.

According to the woman, the Nightmare Court has sent two sixth-rank cultivators this time.

Those two were the ones who seriously injured Uncle Qian, Zhen Qing, and the other two.

But later, in the Dust Mist Canyon, Chen Fan encountered a heavily injured sixth-grade cultivator.

It now appears that the severely injured sixth-grade cultivator was wounded by Elder Qin, which is why he was half-dead and was chased by two fifth-grade cultivators from the Heavenly Demon Sect, ultimately forcing him to undergo demonic transformation...

Shen Daodao said, "Haozi, quickly send them your location so they can send someone to pick us up."

"Although we haven't encountered any major crises along the way, we still need to be prepared."

"What if they're guarding the road... Waaah!"

Before Shen Daodao could finish speaking, Chen Fan covered his mouth with a pile of weeds.

Chen Fan said with a dark face, "I'm not afraid of the Nightmare Court, but I'm afraid of your jinxed words!"

Shen Daodao spat out the weeds in her mouth, feeling wronged, and said, "It's better to be safe than sorry..."

Chen Fan glared at him: "You still dare to talk!"

"I'm not saying anything more, I'm not saying anything more..." Shen Daodao waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Brother Fan, you all have a prejudice against me. Do you think my mouth is that sharp?"

"If it's that magical, then I predict we'll find four divine weapons on our way to Shanghai!"

Sitting to Chen Fan's right, Chu Xuan said calmly, "The saying 'a jinx' means that good things you say don't come true, but bad things you say always come true."

Shen Daodao's forehead was covered in black lines: "Get lost!"

Ye Hao also came over: "I sent the location, and Sister Qing said this is already a safe zone, and we can go there ourselves."

Shen Daodao rolled her eyes and said, "They're really something. They encountered danger and abandoned us to go to Shanghai first... How irresponsible!"

"And they called it a safe zone..."

"Back then, the people from the Nightmare Court even fought their way to the outskirts of East Sea City!"

"Are those heartless people really that afraid of Shanghai? They're still 300 miles away, and they don't dare approach Shanghai?"

"Why can't I believe it?"

"On Seven Star Mountain, a large number of Ninth-Rank Realm cultivators died... I've never heard of any other force having so many Ninth-Rank Realm cultivators!"

"Besides our Tang Kingdom, how many other small countries probably have only a few ninth-rank cultivators in each of them?"

"How can they be so carefree when such a terrifying force is hunting us down?"

"I think they don't take us seriously at all!"

"Can you just shut up for a second?!" This guy rattled off like a machine gun, and after a string of words, Chen Fan felt his head was spinning.

It's like five hundred ducks quacking loudly in your ear.

Chen Fan was so angry that he wanted to cover Shen Daodao's mouth again.

Even Chu Xuan couldn't help but frown.

Ye Hao's eyes darted around as he said, "After I found a signal, I checked my phone and WeChat. Qingjie only sent one message on WeChat... Where are you guys now?"

Shen Daodao was furious: "Heartless, ungrateful, and irresponsible!"

Chen Fan glanced at WeChat and said, "She only sent me one message, telling us to be careful."

Shen Daodao shouted again, "Unfaithful, heartless, and ungrateful!"

Chen Fan and Chu Xuan exchanged a glance and nodded slightly.

Judging from their appearance, Zhen Qing and Uncle Qian are not worried at all.

The messages sent on WeChat are so perfunctory.

From this perspective, Donghai City actually has other plans!

Perhaps there are other, even more powerful beings protecting them in the shadows?

Chen Fan smiled and stretched.

Ye Hao shook his head and said, "As the old saying goes, even a blade of grass on the ground is a treasure."

Shen Daodao was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

Ye Hao: "Ah, it doesn't mean anything. I just suddenly felt inspired to recite some poems."

Shen Daodao: "Get out!"

Chen Fan: "..."

When Chen Fan first arrived in this world, he said this to "Invisible Flirt" on the Beast Taming Forum.

Haozi, that guy...

After resting for more than ten minutes and eating and drinking their fill, everyone stood up.

Chen Fan walked to the edge of the cliff and said, "There is a large river in the distance. The map shows that it is called 'Dongjiang'."

"Once we cross the Dongjiang River, we can sleep soundly without worry."

"You should take the mountain path down that way."

"You guys?" Ye Hao was taken aback. "What about you, Brother Fan?"

Chen Fan smiled proudly: "I'll fly down from here."

"I'm a sixth-grade cultivator, unlike you newbies."

Ye Hao and the other two: "..."

After sending Xiaobai and the others back to the Beast Taming Space, Chen Fan stood with his hands behind his back, and a pair of semi-transparent wings appeared behind him.

Then, he floated up lightly and flew diagonally downwards.

Ye Hao, his face filled with envy and resentment, said, "Sigh, if only our beasts could fly!"

Chu Xuan: "Even if you have the skill of flight, it's useless... You haven't reached the third rank, so how can you use the skill of beast taming?"

Ye Hao blinked: "Do you feel good every time you finish someone off like this?"

Chu Xuan nodded: "Yes."

Ye Hao: "..."

Shen Daodao: "Stop talking nonsense. Brother Fan has already gone down. Let's hurry up and go down the mountain path."

The three immediately mounted their beasts and quickly descended the mountain path.

When the three caught up with Chen Fan, he was sitting by the river watching people fish.

The uncle, dressed in coarse cloth and wearing a straw hat, stood motionless like a stone sculpture.

Chen Fan turned around and made a "shh" gesture to Chu Xuan and the other two behind him.

A little while later...

The fishing rod suddenly sank!

A fish has taken the bait!

A big fish!

The man grinned broadly: "Three days! I've finally caught this king of fish!"

The words had barely left his mouth...

A large fish, over ten meters long, popped its head out of the river and then suddenly yanked its head out!

"Thump!"

The man was dragged directly into the river.

A large group of fish rushed towards the river, looking ferocious.

Water jets and water guns were spraying everywhere.

The scene was extremely chaotic at one point!

Chen Fan shook his head and sighed, "Is the person fishing, or is the fish fishing for the person?"

"Daodao, go down and help."

Shen Daodao subconsciously took a step back and said, "Brother Fan, the fish in this river are much stronger than the fish in our Donghai City's Chenxing River. I wouldn't be able to beat them if I went down!"

"Even if I could beat them, what if they bit my penis?"

"My armor mainly reinforces the hip area, not the area below!"

Chen Fan and the other two: "..."

At this moment, the uncle in the river gave a soft shout, and a burst of energy exploded around him.

On the water's surface, a large number of fish immediately turned belly up.

Blood stained the river red.

Then, the uncle carried the king fish out of the river and jumped to the ground.

Shen Daodao couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, with your cultivation level so high, you could kill a whole bunch of fish with a single palm strike, so why are you still fishing here?"

Chen Fan said, "What do you know? Are fishing and killing fish the same thing?"

"Fishing is about catching a sense of solitude, a sense of loneliness."

"People who enjoy fishing enjoy the process of fishing..."

The uncle nodded repeatedly, glancing at Chen Fan a few more times, feeling as if he had met a kindred spirit.

Chen Fan added, "People who truly love fishing love it to the very depths of their souls..."

The uncle nodded again.

Chen Fan added, "A person who truly loves fishing will still be able to cast a line even when they reach the Bridge of Helplessness."

Uncle: "..."

After giving Chen Fan a speechless look, the uncle rolled his eyes and asked, "Where are you guys from?"

Chen Fan and the others were about to speak...

A large flock of hurricane griffins suddenly flew over from the other side of the river.

Three people jumped off the hurricane griffin when it was still seven or eight meters above the ground.

The moment the three armored figures landed, their feet stomped on the ground, sending shards of rock flying!

"..." Chen Fan and the other three looked dissatisfied.

The uncle just smiled and didn't say anything.

The three men walked over with grim faces, squinting as they glanced at Chen Fan and his group of four.

Then, the middle-aged man in the lead said coldly, "You're not from Shanghai?"

Chen Fan grinned: "So what if it is? So what if it isn't?"

The middle-aged man in the lead frowned and said, "I'm asking you a question, so answer it properly."

"otherwise……"

"Otherwise what?" Chen Fan's eyes also turned slightly cold.

The middle-aged man in the lead sneered and said, "Otherwise, I might cripple you all!"

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

Chen Fan and his companions simultaneously drew their weapons!

"Come!"

Chen Fan said in a sinister tone, "I'd like to see just how capable you are of crippling me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, summoning arrays appeared all around them.

Apart from the orange cat, Xiaoqing and Xiaobai also climbed out of the summoning circle.

Chu Xuan and the others also summoned their beasts!

Reason can only be explained to those who are reasonable.

Trying to reason with unreasonable people is a complete waste of time.

Are people from Shanghai really that great?

Is it permissible to kill at will?

Then let's see if you have the ability!

"Huh!"

The middle-aged man at the head of the group couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation when he saw the group of beasts.

Even among the geniuses of the top families in Shanghai, few at this age can possess more than three tamed beasts!

These guys...

The hostility in the eyes of the middle-aged man in the lead had lessened considerably, and he said in a deep voice, "We are from the Li family of Shanghai."

"The Li family members encountered an accident in the Flashing Firefly Swamp."

"So we've been investigating all this time."

"Who are you people? Why are you here? Have you ever been to the Glowing Swamp?"

Chen Fan and the other two felt a slight chill run down their spines.

The Li family...

How did they find out so quickly that Li Xinghe and the old man were in trouble without any communication?

Chu Xuan stepped forward and said, "We are students from Donghai City, who were recommended to the top martial arts university in Shanghai. On our way to Shanghai, we were attacked by the Nightmare Court and have just arrived near Dongjiang."

"People from Eastsea City?" The middle-aged man at the head of the group's expression changed. "You passed through the Glowing Swamp and were attacked by the Nightmare Court there?"

"No," Chu Xuan said. "We were attacked by the Nightmare Court in the Broken Soul Mountains. Later, we got separated from the powerful individuals protecting us and hid in the mountains for two days before heading north."

The middle-aged man at the head of the group glanced at Chu Xuan's red cloak, then at the dark blood stone golem beside him, and said thoughtfully, "Are you Chu Xuan from the Chu family of Donghai City?"

Chu Xuan nodded slightly: "Not bad."

The middle-aged man at the head of the group softened considerably: "Did you encounter anyone from the Nightmare Court in the Shimmering Swamp? Did you encounter anything strange?"

Chu Xuan shook his head: "No, the Flashing Swamp is different from the Broken Soul Mountain Range. The monsters there are relatively lower level, and the terrain is relatively flat, so we ran all the way without stopping for a moment."

The middle-aged man at the head of the group slowly swept his gaze over Chen Fan and his companions.

Then, his gaze fell on the woman on the back of the Dragonblood Lion!

"Who is she?"

The middle-aged man asked, "Why are you chained?"
