Chapter 1442: Do You Want Revenge?

Library of Heaven's Path · 第1442章 想不想报仇?

"Good!"

Zhang Xuan nodded.

Although he was not sure whether he could tame the sacred beast the other had mentioned, it should not be difficult to surpass the man before him.

Moreover, it was caught by the little genius's father. Regardless, he would tame it first; otherwise, how could he force that fellow out?

How could he vent Jian Qinsheng's anger?

If that little genius really dared not come out, then he would give his old man a good beating first... Who told him to have such a shameless son? If the son is not raised well, it is the father's fault!

"Then let's begin..."

Seeing him agree, Zhang Jiang's eyes flashed with excitement. He waved his hand, and an old man behind him immediately withdrew, disappearing from everyone's sight. After a short while, he returned, and with a flick of his wrist, a huge cage appeared in the square among the crowd.

The cage was over forty meters in diameter, made of some unknown material, pitch black, with various patterns swirling on its surface, clearly arranged with a powerful formation to prevent the imprisoned creature from escaping.

Inside the cage, a sacred beast resembling a lion lay on the ground, lazily looking around before continuing to sleep.

This creature was not too large, only four or five meters in length, and emitted no sound or aura, but everyone present narrowed their eyes at the sight.

"It's a Flame Qilin Beast!"

"This is a super sacred beast that can reach the ninth level of the Saint realm upon adulthood. Even for a super family like the Zhangs, there are not many... No wonder even a taming genius like Zhang Jiang couldn't tame it!"

"If one could tame such a sacred beast, it would be like instantly possessing the combat power of a ninth-level Saint..."

"Heh, it's not that easy. This beast has ancient Qilin bloodline, unruly and untamable. Forget taming it, even approaching it is difficult. If it could be done, Xingmeng Sword Saint wouldn't have left it in the Zhang family for three years without releasing it!"

"That's true..."

After the shock, everyone's faces turned solemn.

"Third Elder, should we stop him?"

After hesitating for a moment, Elder Wuzhen could no longer hold back and looked over.

"No need..." Zhang Wuchen shook his head.

"But... to tame the Flame Qilin Beast, one must enter the iron cage. Once inside, the beast will go berserk and attack... In the past three years, it has injured thirteen nine-star tamers. If this Master Zhang comes for a sword duel and gets hurt by the sacred beast, I'm afraid... it won't sound good if word gets out!"

Elder Wuzhen hurriedly said.

It wasn't that he was anxious, but he knew the situation of this sacred beast well, unlike outsiders.

It was too difficult to tame!

Outside the cage, no matter what delicacies or treasures were offered, the beast wouldn't even look at them. But once inside, it would immediately attack... Because of this, over ten nine-star tamers had been injured in three years. Zhang Jiang asking Zhang Xuan to tame it was clearly ill-intentioned, wanting to use this big fellow to teach him a lesson.

"I know all this... If there is real danger, I will intervene!" Zhang Wuchen said.

If the other could think of it, how could he not? The reason he didn't stop it was that this Zhang Xuan had given too many shocks since appearing, and he wanted to see if Zhang Xuan could pass this hurdle Zhang Jiang had set.

"This... alright!"

Hearing the Third Elder say this, Zhang Wuchen stopped speaking and looked up at Zhang Xuan, only to see him frowning as if pondering something.

"Flame Qilin Beast..."

Zhang Xuan stood still, letting knowledge about this sacred beast flow through his mind.

The temperament of this sacred beast was recorded in the books of the Taming Guild in the Saint Son Hall. With a little recollection, he understood Zhang Jiang's purpose.

"This creature has no dragon bloodline and is extremely powerful. Taming it is indeed not easy..."

Rubbing his forehead, Zhang Xuan felt somewhat helpless.

To be honest, if he had known it was this beast, he wouldn't have agreed. Even if his beat-taming method was formidable, he would be powerless against such a powerful creature.

If he couldn't defeat it, how could he tame it?

In fact... given his strength, he might be roasted to charcoal before even getting close to it!

"Roasted to charcoal?"

Thinking of the beast's flames, more terrifying than earthly fire, Zhang Xuan suddenly froze.

"Well? Can we start?"

Seeing him deep in thought, Zhang Jiang sneered coldly, the corners of his mouth lifting as he looked over.

"Yes!"

Zhang Xuan nodded: "Open the cage!"

Seeing him agree so quickly, Zhang Jiang was slightly startled, then chuckled: "Good!"

He then waved his hand. The old man who had brought the cage stepped forward, grabbed with his hand, and a door appeared in the iron cage, just big enough for a person to squeeze through, too small for the Flame Qilin Beast to escape.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Xuan walked toward the door.

"Master Zhang..."

Jian Qinsheng hurriedly stopped him.

Although he knew little about taming, he knew a lot about Xing Sword Saint, who liked to show off and was extremely arrogant. Even such a person couldn't tame it, showing how terrifying this beast was!

Walking straight into such a fearsome sacred beast's cage... was too dangerous.

"Don't worry!"

Turning around, Zhang Xuan nodded: "I will display my sword, so others will know..."

"Display swordsmanship?"

Jian Qinsheng's eyebrows jumped: "That's not what I meant..."

Earlier, he felt that Zhang Xuan was not focusing on his main task—coming as a sword duelist but instead breaking formations, activating spirits, painting, and appraising treasures—so he had reminded him...

But this time, he stopped him out of genuine concern, afraid of danger!

Even standing still in front of such a sacred beast was risky; if he displayed swordsmanship, wouldn't he be killed on the spot?

"I understand..."

Waving his hand, Zhang Xuan didn't bother to say more. With a leap, he entered the iron cage.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

As soon as he entered the cage, it was like entering another world. Waves of heat rushed at him, threatening to scorch his entire body. The space before him seemed distorted by the scorching temperature, making his eyes blur and unable to see clearly.

"The Flame Qilin Beast feeds on earthly fire, can produce fire clouds, and with a thought, can burn over three hundred li. Even saintly clans dare not offend it easily..."

Recalling the introduction about this sacred beast, Zhang Xuan nodded.

To be honest, being able to trap this big fellow here for three years without escape was probably only possible for the Zhang family. Anyone else would have had the cage burned to ashes long ago.

Whoosh!

As he was marveling, he felt the temperature around him rise higher. The Flame Qilin Beast, which had been lying lazily on the ground, saw someone enter and revealed a ferocious look in its eyes as it slowly approached.

"Qilin Beast, you should be able to tell that I'm not from the Zhang family!"

Seeing it approach, Zhang Xuan was not flustered but smiled slightly: "A sacred beast with Qilin bloodline, trapped in a cage by the Zhang family without dignity, tormented for three years. I just want to ask you one thing..."

"Do you want revenge?"
