"Where is the Beast God?"

"Where did it go?"

"The aura was so terrifying just now—how did it vanish?"

"I don’t know. I didn’t see anything. Huh? Why is there a stray dog over there?"

"Just a stray dog. Ignore it. Focus on finding the Beast God."

"Right!"

Mu Ye and his group followed Da Huang’s aura but found no trace of the Beast God.

Yet shortly after they left, they suddenly sensed the Beast God’s presence again.

"You cowards, what are you waiting for?"

"Are you afraid?"

"Come out and face your doom!"

Huh?

What’s going on?

The Beast God has reappeared?

"The aura’s location… isn’t that where we just were?"

"Could it be that a tenth-tier Beast God is already this powerful?"

"That we can’t even glimpse its true form?"

"This is terrifying!"

"Enough! No matter how strong it is, it’s still just a beast. Playing tricks like this proves it doesn’t dare face us head-on."

"Keep searching."

"Yes, Alliance Leader."

While Mu Ye and his men were searching for the Beast God, Chen Chang'an had already quietly infiltrated the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Beasts Alliance.

After searching for a long time, Chen Chang'an found no trace of the fetal pearl.

Could it be that Mu Ye carries it on him at all times?

Or perhaps it’s stored inside his spatial ring?

Back then, Mu Ye had recognized the pearl’s extraordinary nature and even brought it as an offering to the Beast God, hoping for an audience. He must value it highly.

"It seems I’ll have to act first and ask about the pearl later."

Finding nothing, Chen Chang'an sent a mental message to Da Huang.

"Now!"

Hearing Chen Chang'an’s signal, Da Huang’s eyes gleamed as he instantly revealed his true form.

ROAR!

The moment Da Huang transformed, Mu Ye and his men were stunned.

"The stray dog… mutated?"

"Mutated my ass! Are you stupid? This… this is probably the Beast God itself!"

"Such terrifying pressure, such a majestic form."

"That appearance… could it be… the legendary divine beast, the Qilin?"

"What? A divine beast Qilin? The Beast God of the Beast God Continent is actually a divine beast?"

"A tenth-tier divine beast? How… how can we possibly stand against this?"

Divine beasts were exceedingly rare in the Tai Xuan Realm—some even believed they had gone extinct long ago.

The closest traces of divine beasts could be found among the once-existent Dragon Serpent Clan, but that was over fifty thousand, perhaps even a hundred thousand years ago.

Even the Dragon Serpent Clan only possessed a sliver of divine beast bloodline.

But this Qilin before them was different—it was a genuine divine beast, its bloodline pure and untainted.

No one had ever truly seen a Qilin. Most only knew of it from ancient records describing its appearance and nature.

Now, witnessing it firsthand, their shock was beyond words.

When Mu Ye saw Da Huang in this form, his heart swelled with excitement.

The Beast God of the Beast God Continent… was actually a divine beast Qilin?

Pride?

Why did he feel such an emotion?

Mu Ye didn’t understand, but the pride was undeniably there.

As someone who had once hailed from the Beast God Continent, he knew better than anyone: without the Beast God, there would be no Beast God Continent, and thus, no him.

It was just a shame that he had taken the wrong path back then—a path he could never return from.

"Mu Ye!"

"You, a man who once walked the lands of the Beast God Continent, now send your lackeys to slaughter beasts in the Beast God Mountains without restraint."

"Your crimes are unforgivable."

Da Huang’s icy gaze fixed on Mu Ye, though he didn’t immediately attack.

"I…"

"If you truly exist, why did you never meet me?"

"Why?"

"I just wanted to know whether the Beast God was real, whether my faith was justified."

"I betrayed the Beast God Continent because you forced my hand!" Mu Ye roared in anger.

He regretted it, but more than that, he resented it. None of this would have happened if the Beast God had just granted him an audience.

Wasn’t this the Beast God’s fault?

"Hmph!"

"Your faith was weak. Countless others in the Beast God Continent never saw the Beast God, yet they never betrayed."

"Your ambition and wavering devotion led you here. You made your own choices."

"Who forced you?"

At this point, Da Huang suddenly had an idea.

"Back then, when you brought that pearl to the Beast God Continent, I was pleased."

"I thought you had repented, that you wished to return."

"I even planned to examine the pearl and meet you, but you…"

Da Huang deliberately trailed off, letting Mu Ye’s imagination fill in the blanks.

Sure enough, Mu Ye’s heart jolted.

The Beast God had intended to meet him?

The pearl he’d brought last time had interested the Beast God?

"It was him, wasn’t it?"

"He feared I’d take his position as Dean of the Beast God Academy, so he lied and said you refused to see me, didn’t he?" Mu Ye demanded, his voice trembling with emotion.

"Alas, he acted foolishly. I’ve already punished him severely."

Da Huang seized the opportunity to shift all blame onto the Old Dean.

"I knew it! I knew he was behind this!" Mu Ye sneered, his hatred for the Old Dean burning fiercely.

"Where is the pearl now?" Da Huang asked.

"The pearl?"

"It’s… it’s right here."

Mu Ye retrieved the pearl from his spatial ring.

The moment Da Huang saw it, his eyes lit up—it was indeed the fetal pearl!

To think it had been in Mu Ye’s possession all along!

"This pearl… it does feel unusual."

"It seems… connected to me in some way."

Da Huang’s words stunned Mu Ye. Could this pearl belong to the Beast God?

For something of the Beast God’s to fall into his hands should have been a great blessing. If not for that damned Old Dean, he wouldn’t have angered the Beast God!

"If it belongs to you, Beast God, then I return it to you."

Facing the Beast God, Mu Ye felt an instinctive submission—perhaps an inherent trait of all who hailed from the Beast God Continent.

"Wait!"

"Alliance Leader, wasn’t the Beast God here to settle the score?"

"Why are we chatting like this?"

One of Mu Ye’s subordinates suddenly snapped back to reality. This was the Beast God—here for vengeance. Why were they suddenly having a friendly conversation?

Hearing this, Mu Ye also froze. Right—just moments ago, the Beast God had been furious. How had they ended up talking?

But by then, Da Huang had already snatched the pearl. With a sly grin, he hurled it toward where Chen Chang'an was hiding.

"Beast God, why… why did you throw the pearl?" Mu Ye frowned in confusion.

"Because… I’m not the Beast God you know."

"I came for this pearl!"
