Wang Qin nearly fainted from terror when she saw the huge three-headed beast before her.
This dog had long glossy fur which shimmered impressively under the afternoon sun shining through the window. The creature was as big as a small cow, and was over 1.2 meters tall despite being on all fours!
Three ferocious-looking heads sat atop its broad shoulders, and sharp canine teeth protruded from the corners of its mouths. It was like something out of a horror movie!
Indigestion raised its head and sniffed disdainfully, as though it had come to inspect its own territory. Untold arrogance could be seen in its eyes.
The appearance of the Cerberus had caused quite an alarm in the room. Mystic Three and Wang Qin had both been momentarily freaked out. The entrance of this dog was simply too domineering! It caused others to have a sudden impulse to run in the other direction!
Even Mystic Three who had lived with the Cerberus for a period of time was afraid of it. When they were in Lido Ghost City, they had fallen into danger numerous times. Each time, the danger was easily resolved by the strange dog.
Unfortunately, the majestic entrance that Indigestion had crafted was ruined in an instant by Insatiable and Black Hole. The moment they saw Bei Feng, they seized the body and bounded happily towards him, with their tail shaking excitedly.
"Sir, where's the child?" Wang Qin hid behind Bei Feng and peeked at the three headed dog fearfully as she asked.
"Hm? You're mistaken. I'm hiring you to teach this fellow."
Bei Feng laughed and pointed to the Cerberus.
"You hired me... to teach a dog?!"
Wang Qin almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Rich people were truly willful. Did he think that money was just some pieces of paper? Paying a monthly salary of 80,000 yuan to teach a dog Mandarin?!
'These rich kids must have so much money that they don't know how else to spend it. Wanting to teach a dog the national language? Why don't you tell me to make it speak like a human?'
Wang Qin cursed darkly in her heart. She felt that she had already suffered ample humiliation here, and was about to pick up her purse and leave. But as she did so, a thought popped up in her head and she swallowed the words which had risen to her throat.
A natural looking smile surfaced on her face all of a sudden, "Alright, I'll begin the lessons from tomorrow. I'll need to return first to prepare the lessons; after all, a human child and a dog are not the same."
"Good, no problem. Mystic Three, send Teacher Wang back first. If she needs anything, go ahead and help her buy it."
For some reason, Bei Feng felt a sudden impulse to laugh aloud. What a Teacher 'Wang'! [TL/N: Wang 汪 is the Chinese equivalent of Woof.]
"Why does this woman feel so unreliable? Did you find a random person to brush off your Granddaddy Dog?"
A disdainful voice resounded in Bei Feng's head. Hearing that, Bei Feng turned around and looked at Indigestion expressionlessly.
"A slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue! I meant... this handsome hound!"
The Cerberus coughed weakly. 'Fine. Since your strength is currently higher than this Lord Dog, I'll endure it!'
"Alright, go and play by yourself; you'll be starting class tomorrow."
Bei Feng pursed his lips with annoyance as he looked at Indigestion. After some time, he waved his hands and dismissed it.
'That little bastard is getting stronger and stronger. Sh*t, sh*t! Could it be that this Lord Dog would never be able to escape from his devilish grasp? Wait, there's still a chance! Comparing lifespan with this Lord Dog of the hell hound race? I'll wear you down to death!'
The Cerberus harrumphed gloomily as it went back to its room to sleep.
'Looks like this Cerberus has not given up yet. However, with Insatiable and Black Hole here, it can forget about escaping!' Bei Feng mused with a light smile as he fondled his chin and walked up the mountain. Once at the peak, he wasted no time and began practicing the Bear Form Style.
Bear, the symbol of strength!
The Giant Bear was royalty among bears, and one could say that they had perfected the theory of using pure strength to overwhelm everything!
No matter if one were faced with an opponent with myriad transformations or tens of thousands carefully crafted schemes, all shall be smashed apart with a single strike of absolute power!
Bei Feng's Bear Form Style had advanced tremendously. The Bear Manifestation behind him looked extremely lifelike, as if it was a real living being. If an ordinary person came close to observe it, they would still be unable to spot anything wrong with it.
"The Bear Form Style is at an acceptable level now, so it's time to concentrate on the Eagle Form Style to quickly comprehend the killer combination technique, Eagle Bear Skybreak!" Bei Feng decided.
The Eagle Form Style and Bear Form Style happened to perfectly complement each other. One focused on absolute power, while the other focused on unmatched speed. One of the killer techniques, Eagle Bear Skybreak also required the combination execution of the two styles.
Born of two completely different martial styles yet at the same time retaining the strengths of both, the technique was powerful enough to shock the heavens and shake the earth!
As he practiced, the essence blood from the Snow Ridge Celestial Eagle wing on his back began to flow into and merge with Bei Feng's body. The accumulated amount had brought him some significant improvements.
"Based on the time, it should be time for Fishing again. I wonder what I'll get this time?"
Bei Feng temporarily tossed his current problem out of his mind. His mastery of the Eagle Form Style was only at the most basic level for now. He consolidated his comprehension of the Eagle Form Style and headed back down the mountain.
He took his time and finished dinner first. It was not even 7pm, but the sky was already becoming dark. Bei Feng sat down beside the old well and boiled a pot of hot water. For some reason, he was starting to fall in love with drinking tea more and more.
Perhaps he had already fallen in love with tea from the time he planted his own tea tree back in the old mansion. Later on, due to him moving to the city and being busy with work and life, he did not have the time or the leisure to enjoy tea anymore.
The Fusang Wood Fishing Rod appeared in his hands, and Bei Feng swung the hook into the well swiftly without putting on any bait.
The cold and pale moon hung high in the cloudless sky, emanating slight chilliness which lingered in the air. A light breeze swept through the area, bringing with it the soft fragrance of flowers.
It was a new and thin crescent moon, and the wind was gentle and refreshing. A person could be seen sitting alone in the courtyard beside an ancient well, surrounded by a sea of resplendent flowers. In that moment, the scene looked extremely picturesque, like a painting which would last for eternity.
***
Somewhere within the Myriad Worlds, there was a small town. This day, numerous experts from all over had rushed over and arrived at the town, occupying the largest hotel in the city.
Although it was the largest hotel here, it was actually merely three stories high. From the day this town was built, it was the first time it had seen the arrival of so many important characters.
"Yin!"
The cries of a powerful bird suddenly sounded out in the sky, shocking numerous ordinary civilians into a daze. Their ears were ringing, and their heads buzzed.
"So noisy!"
Three men and a woman were sitting at the highest level of the hotel, and were in the middle of a discussion when they were interrupted by the bird.
One of them, a middle-aged man, snorted unhappily and unsheathed the strange weapon beside him in a fluid motion. The weapon appeared to be a sword, yet did not look like a sword. It was extremely strange.
A flash of sword ray which extended over a hundred meters shot out, homing in on the direction where the bird cry had come from!
In the blink of an eye, the sword ray crossed a distance of over 3000 zhang [Zhang = 3 ⅓ meters] to appear before a huge golden eagle!
The golden eagle had a wingspan of over a hundred meters. Its feathers were a dazzling gold, as though it had been forged with pure gold. The blood and Qi energy radiating from its body was enough to shock the heavens and earth!
But faced with this streak of sword ray, it could not help but to panic slightly. But as it looked at the person seated atop its back, the golden eagle still managed to calm down.
This golden eagle was definitely an existence far exceeding a Grade 7 Demonic Beast. Yet, the person riding atop it was someone that was even more fear-inducing. It was unknown what sort of method this person used to actually manage to subdue such a proud creature!
The person sitting on the back of the giant golden eagle was actually an old man with white hair and beard. He was dressed in clean white Daoist robes which were filled with numerous strange symbols and patterns. As the sword ray got closer and closer, the old man finally opened his eyes slowly. As he did so, a radiant light burst forth from him, congealing into substance in midair. Scar-like ripples even appeared in the air around him!
The old Daoist lifted his hand very slowly and pointed out with a finger, as if he had great difficulties in raising even a hand. But once that finger pointed out, the wind and clouds around him began to churn and whirl about wildly. The old Daoist's aura rose terrifyingly, scattering the clouds around and above him!
"Boom!"
A huge finger about 100 meters long materialized before him. The finger was so lifelike that the crinkles and pores on it could be seen with absolute clarity. An enormous pressure emanated from it, and it finally came into contact with the sword ray!
The moment the two forces collided together, a huge shock wave blasted outwards in all directions! All the clouds within ten li were immediately dispersed!
