140: I'll find you an opportunity later.
Bai Zhi regained her senses, but her expression changed drastically, and she hastily said, "Show me that talisman seal, and then let me see that Yao God."
Chu Yuan nodded, "Of course you can see him. Why do I feel like you're a bit flustered?"
Xiao Bai patted his arm, "How can I not be flustered? We're not even sure of the Demon Taming Secret Art's effect, and you've rashly taken in a Yao God. What if he turns against you?"
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"
Chu Yuan said with a smile, but he didn't refuse Xiao Bai's request.
A contract existed between them, and he could feel that Xiao Bai genuinely cared for him.
Soon, when she saw the talisman seal, which was comparable to the god controlling talisman seal, with her Divine Thought,
Xiao Bai also let out a slight sigh of relief, her expression a bit complex.
She could feel that the talisman seal gave her a sense of dread; it seemed that if she were entangled by that Demon Taming Rune, she too would regret it.
At this point, even without seeing that Yao God, she had a rough idea.
"What is the strength of that Yao God?"
Xiao Bai asked, "And how did you meet him?"
"Middle Stage of the Eighth Rank!"
Chu Yuan quickly responded, "At that time, I had just entered the Secret Realm..."
With that, Chu Yuan recounted the process of taking in the Black Eagle Yao God.
Of course, he skipped over the Man in Black; everything was attributed to the Formation.
And he made sure the Black Eagle heard his words, believing the Black Eagle understood his meaning.
The ability to disappear out of thin air was something he didn't have a good excuse for yet, and it couldn't be exposed.
Xiao Bai nodded, "I roughly understand what you mean. You're being honest with me because you don't want me to overthink, right?"
"Exactly!"
Chu Yuan nodded, "Given our relationship, and even the existence of a contract, we both trust each other deeply."
"Therefore, I felt it necessary to tell you about the Demon Taming Secret Art's ability to enslave Yao Gods. I was afraid that if you found out someday, you might overthink it."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai's eyes curved into crescents, a smile playing in her eyes, and she chuckled softly, "Don't worry, I won't overthink it."
"Moreover..."
With that, she shook her head slightly, not continuing her thought, and instead said:
"Let me see him!"
"Alright!" Chu Yuan nodded and summoned the Black Eagle.
"Greetings, Master."
The Black Eagle bowed to Chu Yuan, then looked at Xiao Bai.
But upon seeing Bai Zhi's appearance, he was surprised and asked, "May I ask, Fellow Daoist, which Yao God are you?"
Bai Zhi's figure shifted, transforming into a human, her eyes slightly narrowed as she said, "Can you recognize me now?"
The Black Eagle's eyes suddenly widened, "You... you are that mysterious Yao God?"
Xiao Bai nodded slightly, then her expression turned cold and she said, "From now on, serve him well. If you dare to harbor any ill intentions, this Venerable will kill you!"
The Black Eagle hastily lowered his head, "I wouldn't dare!"
"Wouldn't dare is best!"
Xiao Bai snorted coldly, transforming back into a white fox and returning to Chu Yuan's embrace.
The Black Eagle's eyes flickered, and remembering something, he gritted his teeth and asked, "May I ask, Master, are you the one the Ming Ye Ghost God is looking for?"
Chu Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at him with a half-smile, his voice leisurely saying, "You are very smart, but don't ask too many questions you shouldn't. You will know when it's time for you to know!"
The Black Eagle's body trembled slightly, and he quickly bowed his head, saying, "The Black Eagle understands."
"That's enough!" Chu Yuan waved his hand, "You've recovered pretty well. You can move freely now, but don't stray too far from us!"
"The Black Eagle obeys!"
The Black Eagle cupped his hands in response, then his figure quickly moved away.
Chu Yuan smiled slightly, holding Xiao Bai as he continued to walk, "How was it?"
Xiao Bai nodded slightly, commenting, "His submission in his eyes is from the heart. Your Demon Taming Secret Art is very powerful!"
Chu Yuan chuckled, "When I was condensing the talisman seal, I felt that these two Secret Arts were likely on par, and it turned out to be true."
Xiao Bai nodded, then said with a solemn voice, "Your two Secret Arts are too powerful. Do not expose them until we have accumulated sufficiently strong power!"
"I know!"
Chu Yuan nodded hastily. Even if Xiao Bai didn't say it, he would have done the same.
After all, in the current Cangyuan Continent, the only known person who could enslave God Realm experts from both the ghost and demon races was the Forgetful Divine Venerable of the Demon Taming Tower.
And he had cultivated him from the Yao Emperor Realm.
As for others, there were none!
If the ghost and demon races knew about his unique existence, they would probably lose sleep and hunt him down with all their might!
"It's good that you know!"
Xiao Bai nodded, continuing, "Furthermore, this Secret Art of yours is definitely stronger than the Demon Taming Secret Art. It absolutely cannot be spread, do you understand?"
"Of course!"
Chu Yuan said without hesitation, "This is my trump card, how could I possibly spread it?"
"What's more, this Secret Art is too powerful, and I also have to consider you, Xiao Bai, don't I?"
Xiao Bai nodded, a smile in her eyes, seemingly in a good mood.
At this moment, Chu Yuan continued, "Xiao Bai, this is what I'm thinking."
"After this, let the Black Eagle pretend to be strangers to us, and at the appropriate time, create opportunities for us to continue harvesting other Yao Gods."
"Once we have more Yao Gods we can command, we won't have to be so hesitant. What do you think of this idea?"
Xiao Bai listened, nodded thoughtfully, and agreed, "That's a good idea!"
"Also, don't just target the Yao Race. If you get the chance, mess with the Ghost Race too."
Chu Yuan chuckled, "Of course. I think that Ghost Granny and Ye Qingyi are pretty good."
"I'll find an Opportunity for you later!"
Xiao Bai chuckled, thus setting the tone for their upcoming actions... Meanwhile.
Ye Qingyi was in hot pursuit of Ghost Granny when she suddenly sneezed.
Her delicate brows furrowed, her expression surprised, "Something's not right. Someone wants to scheme against me!"
She pondered for a moment but couldn't figure out who she had provoked.
She shook her head, about to continue chasing Ghost Granny, but found that she had lost her.
Her delicate brows furrowed, and she said coldly, "Ugly thing, you're lucky!"
With that, she took out a communication jade and sent a message.
But she found that she couldn't send it at all.
"This You Lian is really something. Why didn't she give little brother a better communication jade back then? I can't even contact him."
"I wonder where little brother is now, and if he's safe?"
"Forget it, I'll go look for an Opportunity first!"
As her voice fell, her figure suddenly dissipated, and she was gone.
She didn't know, however, that Chu Yuan's communication jade had long been strengthened by him.
Now, Chu Yuan could reject messages from a certain contact, making the other party think it was due to being out of range, thus preventing the message from being sent.
The seven people in the Ghost Fiend Nether Abyss were naturally among those whose messages were rejected.
But she wouldn't know that for now... Time quietly passed, and half a month went by in a flash.
At this moment.
In a secluded valley, Bai Zhi and Purple Rhyme had just cleared out the nearby Vicious Beasts.
Chu Yuan casually set up a fourth-grade Formation that isolated Qi, then took out some ingredients.
"Chu Yuan, what are we eating today?"
Seeing this, Xiao Bai transformed into human form, asking with an expectant look.
Chu Yuan was about to answer when he saw Xiao Bai's expression suddenly change, and she whisked the two of them away, disappearing.
Soon after, a black light streaked across the sky and appeared in the valley.
