Chapter 1538: Chapter 1538: What’s the Use of Being Cute

"Roar, roar, roar, just because you guys can roar doesn’t mean I can’t, oh... oh..." Little Auspicious Beast clumsily climbed onto Han Yan’s shoulder, grabbing her sleeve, and let out a few eerie howls.

After jumping up and down and still feeling unsatisfied, the little creature simply kicked off Han Yan’s shoulder and lunged towards the Divine Beast’s phantom, albeit awkwardly and sluggishly.

"Thud," a young man staggered and fell to the ground, and the others also stared blankly, their jaws dropping.

This little Exotic Beast had chubby cheeks and big ears, looking like a tiny piglet, as cute and innocent as one could imagine. But the problem was, this wasn’t some wealthy family’s lady raising a pet, no matter how cute it was, what use was that?

Although they held no hope for Han Yan’s sword pet, they never imagined her second sword pet would be like this.

The previous sword pet, though a bit pretentious, had an imposing form and a fierce appearance, certainly qualifying as pretentious. But this creature looked like a tiny piglet, particularly fat and awkward, lacking even the pretense to be pretentious.

It’s over, this time it’s really over.

Zhuang Ping’an and the others felt a chill inside, even turning their heads, unwilling to watch any longer.

"Smack!" Again, a crisp sound rang out.

No doubt, Han Yan’s second sword pet must have been slapped away too, judging by that small frame, probably squashed into meat paste.

Seeing as it’s a sword pet, Han Yan probably put significant effort into taming it, the crowd sympathetically turned their heads back to look.

But at a glance, they were stunned once more.

The Divine Beast’s phantom had drifted ten feet away, showing a few bright red fingerprints on its face, looking extraordinarily wretched.

They now realized, this phantom was actually a Beast Soul Avatar of that old Exotic Beast, not just a complete illusion, but somewhat tangible. Otherwise, it couldn’t have had fingerprints on its face.

Of course, that wasn’t the point. The point was, the one who got slapped away wasn’t Han Yan’s dumb and adorable little piglet, but the opponent’s Beast Soul Avatar, how could this be?

Equally shocked was the elder transformed by that Exotic Beast on the opposite side, looking at his own slapped away Beast Soul Avatar, then at the little piglet before him, his eyes widened, unable to snap out of it for a while.

In the time he was dazed, the little piglet had already waddled its short legs over to him, shoving its chubby head upwards and flipping him over!

"You think you can make noise? Dare to keep me from sleeping, I’ll beat you to death, beat you to death." The little piglet wiggled its butt and sat on the elder’s head, pounding his head with its two forepaws formed into fists like raindrops. While pummeling, it spewed words in a rapid-fire manner.

Soon, the elder’s face, marked by the passage of time, was pounded into a riot of color.

The crowd was completely dumbfounded. Although the elder appeared old and frail, let’s not forget, his true form was a powerful Exotic Beast comparable to a Sword Saint. Judging by that aura, it’s not far off from the Holy Master, yet now he was ridden and mercilessly beaten by a little piglet. And he had no ability to resist at all, who knows what terrifying power those little paws contained. At any rate, every time those little paws came down, a thunderous thud rang out, the earth trembled with it, and their hearts quivered violently too.

Although those little paws hadn’t fallen on them, watching the old man’s face, colorful and bruised, they couldn’t help but feel a pang of empathy.

Fierce, truly fierce!

Now they finally understood, it turned out Han Yan’s first sword pet was just outwardly strong, while the second one was the opposite, despite its innocent appearance, its combat power was terrifyingly formidable. No wonder Han Yan was reluctant to summon it earlier to show them, probably because the real strength and appearance of the two sword pets were so disproportionate it was bizarre.

Unfortunately, they were wrong again. Han Yan didn’t want to show them her two sword pets, not because of their strength but because they were peculiar: one was a Sleep God, the other a dumbass, not related to power.

In fact, Han Yan hadn’t expected the Little Auspicious Beast to become so formidable after waking up. Every punch it threw carried the force of a thousand jins, and fortunately, that old Exotic Beast was strong; otherwise, it might have been pulp already.

Seems like the little guy gained a lot from that nap, growing significantly. Still, why does it keep appearing as a little piglet? Despite her relief, Han Yan felt a bit disappointed.

"Roar..." After being pummeled by the Little Auspicious Beast, the old Exotic Beast went completely berserk. Amidst furious roars, its figure began to swiftly change, reverting to its beast form.

Han Yan’s heart sank; generally, Exotic Beasts transforming into human form greatly benefits cultivation. After all, humans are the spiritual leaders of all creatures, transforming helps them better comprehend the Heaven and Earth Dao and break through the limits, but when it comes to combat power, reverting to their true form is stronger.

Don’t be fooled by Little Auspicious Beast pretending to be a pig... uh, it’s not really pretending, it actually looks like a piglet. Anyway, even though it took the opponent by surprise and gained the upper hand currently, once the opponent reverts to beast form, it may not have an advantage anymore.

"You still want to transform?" As Han Yan worried, she heard the Little Auspicious Beast curse again, then furiously pummelled the creature further.

With each descending fist, a colorful aura burst forth.

As the rain of fists continued, one colorful aura after another enveloped the Little Auspicious Beast, resembling legendary clouds filling the sky.

"Aoo!" The old Exotic Beast cried out in pain, unable to take it. Its body, which had transformed halfway, reverted back to human form, its old face once purple and red, now like a workshop of dyes, all vibrant and colorful.

Han Yan and the others all wiped a cold sweat off their foreheads. They’d only ever heard of someone being beaten back to their original form, never seen a transformation blocked like this.

Everyone could sense that Little Auspicious Beast’s small fists not only contained Thousand Jin Divine Power, but the colorful aura they brought also concealed Sealing Power. This was precisely why the old Exotic Beast, about to revert to its beast form, was beaten back to human form.

"Old guy, dare to disregard my Taowu Divine Beast, I’ll smash you!" The Taowu, having been slapped by the old beast’s Beast Soul Avatar and dazed for a moment, finally regained consciousness, roaring as it charged forward, holding a big stone and ready to smash it onto the elder’s head.

No wonder it was so furious; as one of the legendary Four Great Fierce Beasts, it ranked among the top Exotic Beast powerhouses. But its true form was suppressed within the Beast Soul Hall, only the Beast Soul Avatar could leave, and even then, it could only exert 30% of its power. Each time it went to battle with Han Yan, it gained nothing and often faced embarrassment, damaging its prestige.

Lately, its strength had grown substantially, and this Beast Soul Avatar could exert 50% of its true power, so it had high aspirations, hoping to show off before Han Yan for once, but it turned out worse than before, slapped senseless from the start, even more humiliating than before. How could it not be enraged?

"Young Master, stop, please stop, this old servant pays respects to the Young Master!" Seeing the rock about to smash the elder’s head, he suddenly pleaded with the Little Auspicious Beast, surprisingly with a touch of excitement in his voice.

"Stop!" Han Yan immediately called out.

Curious about the Little Auspicious Beast’s origins, Han Yan could never find the answer. So the old Exotic Beast called it Young Master, meaning he knew of its origins?

Taowu’s form halted, the stone barely an inch from the elder’s face, stopping abruptly in mid-air.

Little Auspicious Beast also paused, looking curiously at the elder transformed from Exotic Beast.
