Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future

279 A Strange Energy

“Shen Fei, what should we do?” Aloy asked anxiously.

“You go first. I’ll deal with this b*stard.”

Shen Fei took in a deep breath, and suddenly blocked an attack that was directed to Aloy’s side. His fists were tightly clenched as he glared at Su Yang,

“We’re indeed here to gain experience. However, since our encounter has turned out like this, there’s no need to be polite. We’ll just kill you.”

“Oh? Is that so?” The smile on Su Yang’s face disappeared and he said coldly, “You are indeed worthy of being a young master, Shen Fei. Your courage is worthy of praise. However, are you sure you can stop me?”

After saying that, Su Yang flicked his fingers and his dagger flew out again.

Whoosh!

The dagger’s speed was fast, so fast that Shen Fei simply did not have time to react.

It seemed that Su Yang’s strength far exceeded a King’s, otherwise, he would not have been able to manipulate the weapon so speedily.

Fortunately, Shen Fei managed to dodge it at the crucial moment. However, after he dodged, his arm still suffered a huge cut. Blood dripped out and his skin tingled.

“Shen Fei, are you alright?” Aloy exclaimed and quickly supported Shen Fei.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.” Shen Fei squeezed out a smile.

“Will you help me or not?” Su Yang smiled evilly.

“…Fine.” Shen Fei acquiesced.

“Haha, this feels great!” Su Yang laughed.

“Hmph, but don’t even think about getting us to work for you.”

Aloy coldly snorted and stood beside Shen Fei. She glowered at Su Yang, making sure to prevent him from ambushing Shen Fei again.

Seeing Aloy’s rejection, Su Yang’s face darkened. “It seems that I have no choice but to accept this.” Su Yang shook his head as if he was sighing with regret.

“What are you planning?” A look of panic flashed across Aloy’s face.

“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you for the time being. You should know that I like beautiful women very much. And although I’m a womanizer, I won’t do anything stupid.” Su Yang had a faint smile on his face.

However, when Aloy saw this, she felt that Su Yang was deliberately provoking her.

“Hmph, you don’t have to scare me.” Aloy’s attitude was firm, and there was no sign of compromise.

Su Yang was not put off by this. He just shrugged and said, “Alright then, since you put it that way, I’ll take that as an admittance that you are afraid.”

Hearing this, Aloy immediately prepared to take action. But at this moment, Shen Fei suddenly spoke, “Wait a minute.”

Su Yang turned his head and looked at Shen Fei.

“…I’ve already agreed to help him.”

“Shen Fei?!” Aloy shouted in disbelief. She could not understand why Shen Fei would suddenly agree to this.

Before this, Shen Fei was still unwilling to agree to Su Yang’s conditions. Why did he change his mind now?

“I already gave my word.” Shen Fei shrugged.

“That’s because you’re too stupid. There must be something fishy about this,” Aloy yelled, indignant.

Hearing this, Shen Fei bitterly shook his head and did not explain further. He could not let Aloy know that Su Yang was provoking her on purpose to goad them into another fight, because it would not do either of them any good.

Su Yang did not mind that Shen Fei did not wish to “play”. He only smiled and said, “Since you’re willing to work with me, let’s find a place to discuss our cooperation.”

After saying that, Su Yang took the lead and left. Then, the three of them—including Li Yuan—followed Su Yang.

However, before he left the area, Su Yang deliberately made a soul fluctuation to transmit a kind of message about the movement here. No matter what, this was the black market’s territory. Su Yang did not want these people to be destroyed. After all, this was a group of very difficult people to deal with!

Su Yang did not encounter any danger along the way. He only stopped when he arrived at a remote wasteland.

“Everyone, please come with me.”

Shen Fei and Aloy looked at each other and followed Su Yang. Soon, Su Yang brought the three of them to a flat area and stopped. Su Yang looked around and sat down on the grass. He crossed his legs and looked at the three of them.

At this, Aloy and Shen Fei both became alert and looked around vigilantly.

“That’s right, I’m monitoring you to see what tricks you can play,” Su Yang said with his ever-present smile.

Aloy’s pretty face turned red. She really did not expect to be monitored, which made her very angry.

Aloy gritted her teeth and said, “Hmph, don’t play tricks anymore. Get on with it, or I won’t be polite anymore.” Her pretty face was practically covered in frost from how icy her glare was, and her killing intent was flaring around her.

Puzzled, Shen Fei asked, “Didn’t you want to get that special energy? Why did you bring us here?”

Su Yang smiled and said, “I didn’t come here just to get the strange energy. I also have an important matter that I need help with. And that matter concerns you.” Su Yang pointed at Shen Fei.

Seeing this, Shen Fei was stunned. He could not understand what Su Yang was planning.

“Su Yang, what do you mean by this?” Aloy frowned. Shen Fei was as confused as she was.

“Because you’re the only one who can defeat magical beasts, I’ll be able to obtain that strange energy by leveraging on that,” Su Yang said with a smile.

“Me?” Shen Fei pointed at his own nose with a dumbfounded expression.

“You don’t need to doubt me. I already know the specific situation of this strange energy. It’s called a magical beast soul essence,” said Su Yang slowly. “As long as we kill this magical beast’s soul essence, I’ll be able to obtain its energy.”

Shen Fei then understood. “You want to use me.”

“That’s right. Don’t forget that you were the one who agreed to it before. It doesn’t seem right for you to go back on your words now, right?” Su Yang said jokingly.

Hearing these words, Aloy was a little disappointed. She was still trying to accept the fact that Shen Fei actually agreed to work with Su Yang. However, does Shen Fei really have the ability to defeat a magical beast of such caliber?

At this moment, Aloy’s heart was filled with intense worry. How could they win such a battle? Aloy looked like she wanted to say something but stopped, looking very conflicted.

Shen Fei, on the other hand, bit his lip. There was a struggle in the depths of his eyes. He really wanted to defeat the magical beast. However, he also did not dare to take the risk.

Upon seeing this, Su Yang asked teasingly, “Are you afraid? If you really don’t dare, I can help you. You can choose not to join our camp.”

After saying that, Su Yang threw his hands up in a relenting gesture.

Seeing this, Aloy was stunned for a moment, then she showed relief. Shen Fei also let out a breath he did not realize he was holding.

However, Su Yang suddenly smiled and said, “Don’t think that I’ve given up. You only have one chance. If you don’t grab it, you’ll lose it.”

Aloy snorted. “Hmph, don’t threaten us!”
