Chapter 21: The Frightened Cangback Eagle



Adviser Liao\'s mouth twitched, almost spitting out blood on the spot.

He had just finished boasting about his taming methods, only to have them backfire in his face.

This wasn\'t some mysterious and unfathomable taming technique; it was a mysterious and unfathomable death technique!

As his eyelids twitched and he was about to lose his temper, he saw Yu Xiaoyu looking equally puzzled. "Adviser Liao, is using its head to hit the wall also a taming method?"

She genuinely didn\'t understand.

Hearing Adviser Liao and her father speak so confidently, she thought that the twitching was part of the process...

Feeling another stab in his chest, and this time from Miss Yu, Adviser Liao didn\'t dare to express his embarrassment and could only show a tearful expression. "Well... Miss, it just failed to be tamed."

"What do you mean?" Yu Xiaoyu\'s eyes widened.

Seeing her persistence in rubbing his face in the dirt, Adviser Liao had no choice but to awkwardly explain, "There are successes and failures in beast taming. This Cangback Eagle is too proud, preferring death over becoming a human pet. I did my best..."

He then turned to Yu Longqing, bowing deeply with a face full of shame. "City Lord, it is my lack of skill that caused you to miss out on your desired pet..."

The taming was naturally led by Adviser Liao. No one expected that after all this effort, it would end up being a waste of time.

"It\'s not your fault. It just means I am not destined for this Cangback Eagle. As you said, there are successes and failures in taming. This loss is nothing to worry about. We will aim for success next time." Yu Longqing shook his head.

He had persevered for more than half a month, almost exhausting himself, only for the eagle to commit suicide at the last moment.

Although he felt frustrated, he couldn\'t blame anyone.

After listening to their conversation, Yu Xiaoyu finally understood what had happened.

She looked at Zhang Xuan with curiosity. "Didn\'t you say you tamed Su Shang in half a day? Why did my father spend half a month, only for it to crash into a wall?"

This comment made both Yu Longqing and Adviser Liao wish they could disappear into a hole.

"Miss, please be careful with your words... Su Shang is just a horse, it can\'t be compared to a Cangback Eagle," Adviser Liao quickly explained.

Zhang Xuan smiled faintly. "Maybe I was just lucky."

In reality, Su Shang had also died, but he had the Spirit Awakening Technique.

"Then... could you help my father tame it?" Yu Xiaoyu still didn\'t want to give up the opportunity.

"Well..." Zhang Xuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "If the Cangback Eagle isn\'t dead, I could give it a try, but now..."

"Give it a try?" Before he could finish, Adviser Liao\'s icy voice interrupted him. "You really don\'t know your place. The Cangback Eagle has been enduring for so many days without submitting, choosing death over submission. It has made its stance clear. Even a master of beast taming couldn\'t succeed, let alone someone who loves to boast like you."

"Adviser Liao, are you saying you don\'t believe I can do it?" Zhang Xuan\'s eyelids lifted slightly.

Having been belittled once or twice, Zhang Xuan remained humble. But being mocked repeatedly tested his patience. Even a kid has his temper.

"Indeed, if you can tame it in this condition, I\'ll willingly take you as my master!" Adviser Liao snorted.

"No need for such formalities. I\'m just looking for some cultivation techniques. If you agree to let me read in the City Lord\'s library for an hour, taming this eagle is no big deal," Zhang Xuan said, his mind made up.

The Hongshan Source Pool Method had many flaws, and on his way here, he had been thinking about getting some benefits from The City Lord. The current situation provided the perfect excuse.

As for the eagle, if it died, he could use the Spirit Awakening Technique. If it didn\'t, he would tame it. Either way, he was already in a win-win situation. And if the eagle flew away afterwards, it wouldn\'t be his fault.

"Read for an hour?" Adviser Liao was puzzled by Zhang Xuan\'s request.

Since the library was public, it generally didn\'t contain highly confidential techniques but did hold the foundation of The City Lord\'s mansion. It wasn\'t a place just anyone could access.

This matter wasn\'t something he could decide; it needed the City Lord\'s approval.

Understanding this, Yu Longqing frowned and was about to speak when he saw his daughter looking at him. "Yes, Xue\'er offered you the Hongshan Source Pool Method, but you didn\'t take it. If you want to cultivate, you indeed need techniques..."

"Xiaoyu, what\'s going on?" Yu Longqing asked, noticing his daughter seemed to know more.

"Oh, it\'s like this!" Yu Xiaoyu explained, "Actually... Zhang Xuan is Yu\'er’s groom. He has never cultivated before. This time, he followed us to White Roc Academy, and saw so many Source Warriors, he might have been inspired and wanted to learn how to develop a Source Pool..."

"Never cultivated before?" Yu Longqing looked Zhang Xuan over carefully. Indeed, his vitality seemed weak. Not only did he lack Source Energy, but he also seemed to have internal injuries. After a moment of contemplation, he asked, "Do you really have a way to tame this Cangback Eagle?"

"If it\'s not dead, I have some methods," Zhang Xuan nodded.

Surprised that the City Lord would actually consider Zhang Xuan\'s offer, Adviser Liao showed a hint of reluctance. His tone was filled with disdain and contempt. "City Lord, you don\'t really believe this guy, who can\'t even locate a Source Pool, can help tame the Cangback Eagle, do you?"

"There\'s no harm in trying!" Yu Longqing replied.

Yu Longqing waved his hand. "Hmm, go and fetch Doctor Li."

Although feeling somewhat disgruntled, Adviser Liao nodded and left. He hadn\'t succeeded, and the City Lord had lost patience. It was understandable for him to turn to someone else\'s seemingly empty promises.

However, a lie is still a lie. This kid without any cultivation couldn\'t possibly succeed. Once he fails, the City Lord will naturally come to appreciate his own skills again.

After Adviser Liao left, Yu Longqing, Zhang Xuan, and the others turned their attention to the Cangback Eagle on the ground. Although the eagle\'s head was bleeding heavily, its strong physique as a Source Beast meant it was still twitching and hadn\'t died yet. If they treated it in time, it might still have a chance.

Soon, an elderly man carrying a medical kit followed Adviser Liao back in. He must be the Doctor Li mentioned by the City Lord. Without wasting any time, Doctor Li checked the Cangback Eagle and then took out a pill, dissolving it into liquid before administering it.

Shortly after, the Cangback Eagle slowly opened its eyes and looked at Yu Longqing again, its eyes full of vigilance and anger. The earlier taming attempt had clearly been a great humiliation to it.

Yu Longqing finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Zhang Xuan. "Do you need anything to tame it? I will have it prepared immediately."

"No need. I require absolute silence to communicate with it. If you don\'t mind... could you all leave the room?" Zhang Xuan said after a moment of thought.

He wasn\'t sure if his rough taming method would work. It was better to clear the room first. If the method was seen by others, it would be quite embarrassing.

"Alright!" Yu Longqing hesitated but eventually nodded and left the room with Yu Xiaoyu and Adviser Liao.

Soon, only Zhang Xuan and the Cangback Eagle remained in the room.

"Chirp?" The Cangback Eagle had expected Yu Longqing to continue his torment when it woke up, but seeing him leave made it somewhat confused. This confusion didn\'t last long, however, as it saw the young man nearby stretching and preparing for action, his face turning sinister as he approached.

"Chirp, chirp..." The Cangback Eagle, pressing its wings to its chest, let out a nervous screech, like the mournful cry of an owl piercing the night.
