61: Chapter 61 Forcibly Taking the BOSS's Cub [Iron-Eating Beast]

"It's you!"

Lu Zhentian sensed the most powerful energy fluctuation.

A golden palm print suddenly reached out, tearing through the void.

Crossing an unknown distance, it arrived deep within a dense bamboo forest.

A BOSS cub was sleeping soundly.

It was round and chubby, looking like a black and white rice ball.

Two small, furry horns poked out from the top of its head, trembling with every breath.

"It's actually an Iron-Eating Beast cub!" Li Muyao exclaimed.

The Iron-Eating Beast is a Magic Pet with a very high racial grade. Even the lowest ones are Diamond grade!

Lu Zhentian grabbed the Iron-Eating Beast cub by the scruff of its neck and lifted it up.

"Yi?"

The cub woke up from its dream in a fright, its four short legs kicking wildly in the air.

Just then, "Awoo—!" A deafening beast roar tore through the gray sky.

A massive black and white figure, large enough to blot out the sky, came charging from afar.

Every time the giant beast's paws landed, the earth collapsed and crumbled.

It was the mother of this Iron-Eating Beast cub. A Level 90 Lord-class BOSS—the Taiji Iron-Eating Beast!

"Roar—!" With a furious roar, its body intertwined with Yin and Yang light, and it pounced directly over.

Wherever it passed, space cracked inch by inch. Large swathes of the bamboo forest were turned into powder by the aftermath of the beams of light.

A furious strike from a Lord-class BOSS was enough to destroy a small city.

However, Lu Zhentian just snorted.

"Well come."

He freed one hand and clenched his five fingers into the void. A huge golden warhammer appeared out of thin air in his palm.

[Hammer of Justice]

This was one of the signature ultimate skills of the Paladin Guild. It was a legendary skill that only the top Paladins could master.

Lu Zhentian gripped the hammer handle and swung it casually.

"Go back."

The golden warhammer and the Yin and Yang light collided violently in mid-air.

Boom—!!!

The world seemed to lose its voice. The intertwined Yin and Yang light was instantly swallowed by the gold, dissolving like ice and snow, crushed with overwhelming force.

The golden warhammer smashed fiercely into the adult Iron-Eating Beast.

Bang—!!!

The massive body of the adult Iron-Eating Beast was sent flying backward.

It could only watch helplessly as that giant golden palm grabbed its cub and pressed it onto a spatial summoning formation.

...

At the Lu Family Manor,

Buzz, buzz, buzz...

Accompanied by a burst of violent spatial fluctuations.

A round, chubby figure fell out of the summoning formation.

It hit the ground, rolled twice, and then sat down on its butt.

"Yi?"

The Iron-Eating Beast cub blinked its large, dark eyes, looking around the environment in confusion.

Lu Yuan was very excited.

"Finally... I've finally summoned a Magic Pet with a powerful racial grade."

The Iron-Eating Beast looked just like the giant pandas from his previous life.

It had two small, furry horns on its head and two sharp teeth poking out from the corners of its mouth, revealing a bit of ferocity amidst its adorable appearance.

The Iron-Eating Beast.

Pandas are not cats, they are bears!!

It was a creature with almost no weaknesses!

The cub's racial grade was Diamond grade, and that was only because it hadn't reached adulthood yet. After it matured, there was a high possibility its racial grade would advance even further.

This was definitely the most powerful Magic Pet Lu Yuan had ever summoned.

Watching the Iron-Eating Beast still looking around in confusion, Lu Zhentian nodded in satisfaction.

"Not bad."

"Its mother is very strong, and this cub has great potential."

"However, it also has a fatal flaw."

"Iron-Eating Beasts are too lazy..."

"But you still have a chance to choose now," Li Muyao continued, saying: "This was forcibly snatched back by your grandfather, and a contract hasn't been established yet."

"If you don't like it, you can swap it for another."

Lu Yuan shook his head, reached out, and gently rubbed the Iron-Eating Beast's head.

He believed that every Magic Pet had a different personality, just like people.

He bent down and looked earnestly at the Iron-Eating Beast cub in front of him.

"Little guy, are you willing to be my partner?"

The Iron-Eating Beast cub sat silently on the ground, blinking its eyes. Although it could sense the power of this family, but...

"Iron-Eating Beasts are fearless!"

"Iron-Eating Beasts will never be slaves!!"

"Awoo—!!"

"I can train and become stronger on my own!"

After saying this, the Iron-Eating Beast cub turned to run. But before it could run two steps, its body started moving upward. Its pair of short legs kept paddling in the air.

The little guy was quite spirited.

Lu Yuan held the Iron-Eating Beast by the scruff of its neck, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

"Little guy, following me will not only result in faster growth."

"There will also be many heaven-defying treasures. You should be able to feel that this world is far more suitable for your growth than the Otherworld."

Lu Yuan earnestly began to reason with this Iron-Eating Beast cub.

The Iron-Eating Beast cub stared fixedly at Lu Yuan.

"Heaven-defying treasures?"

Huh? Was the focus actually here?

"Yes, room and board included."

Lu Yuan flipped his palm and took out several heaven-defying treasures from his spatial ring.

"Awoo—!"

The Iron-Eating Beast cub shook its head violently and let out another roar.

"Human, how dare you try to tempt me with food."

As it spoke, saliva uncontrollably dripped down.

"Damn it... it smells so good!"

The Iron-Eating Beast cub couldn't control itself anymore; it grabbed the heaven-defying treasures and started chewing directly.

Iron-Eating Beasts never become slaves. Unless, room and board are included!!

Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time seeing the process of the Iron-Eating Beast going from fierce resistance to giving up.

"Not bad, those who know the times are heroes."

With a slight movement of his mind, the summoning formation began to slowly shrink and brand itself into the Iron-Eating Beast cub's soul.

The Iron-Eating Beast was very cooperative. The whole process went very smoothly.

"From today on, you are my Magic Pet."

The Iron-Eating Beast cub tilted its head and said in a milky voice: "Iya..."

"Mother often said, those who eat others' food should be soft-spoken. Only by training hard will I not feel guilty."

After saying this, the Iron-Eating Beast cub lay on the ground and started doing push-ups.

????

The entire living room fell into a dead silence. Everyone widened their eyes, looking in disbelief at the Iron-Eating Beast lying on the ground, constantly moving up and down.

Li Muyao spoke with difficulty.

"No..."

"Aren't Iron-Eating Beasts very lazy? Why did this one start training as soon as it arrived?"

No one could answer her question. But Lu Zhentian and City Lord Lu Feng were both very excited.

If it was a diligent Iron-Eating Beast, combined with Lu Yuan's monstrous 'ability', it was unimaginable how strong this Iron-Eating Beast would become in the future!!

Just at this moment, the door was pushed open.

The Slime and the Little Skeleton had just returned from leveling up in the wild.

The Slime heard that Lu Yuan had summoned a new Magic Pet and rushed into the villa.

As soon as it entered the door, it saw the Iron-Eating Beast doing push-ups.

Its round, chubby body kept moving up and down on the floor as its arms exerted force. Every push-up was impeccably standard.

Soon, sweat beads were sliding down its fur, dripping onto the clean floor.

????

The Slime's mouth twitched, then it jumped up violently and cursed: "Fuck!"

"The new guy is already trying to outwork me right off the bat—!!!"
