Chapter 507: Chapter 511 Beast Taming Queen (Part 1)

This time, the being contributing its Merit Power to Su Li was an Exotic Bird with a Phoenix Bloodline.

It just couldn’t accept, couldn’t stand the thought of becoming someone else’s stepping stone, without even a chance to grow, and thus died in an extremely humiliating manner.

All this originated from one woman—a resolute and decisive woman.

From the perspective of others, this woman could be considered to have a tenacious personality, bold enough to love and to hate, possessing all the fine qualities of a successful person. More importantly, her Luck was incredibly strong.

How strong was it? It was the kind of great fortune where she could trip while walking on the road and yet find a top-quality Spiritual Grass Divine Artifact.

This was the unmistakable vibe of a chosen heroine.

But from the perspective of the original owner, this woman was nothing but a despicable lowlife who took advantage of others’ vulnerabilities, shamelessly unprincipled and someone who repaid kindness with enmity.

Based on what Su Li gleaned from the original owner’s memories, in summary, this was the story of a heroine with immense Luck and resilience, who ascended to the Heavenly Realm through her own efforts and met the male lead to weave a beautiful tale.

Of course, it naturally included various face-slapping incidents.

Every person who looked down on the heroine or became an obstacle, be they minor characters or Great Powers several levels higher than her, without exception, got face-slapped and counterattacked by her, becoming stepping stones for her ascendancy and the establishment of her might.

The woman who was once the master of this Exotic Bird, the original owner, was named Mei Gui. She had crossed over from another world.

Before her transmigration, she was a female assassin who died from severe injuries after being betrayed by her lover and companions, which made her emotionally detached and ruthlessly cold-hearted.

The body she transmigrated into belonged to the skinny little daughter of a farmer in a small village, who was looked down upon in a family that preferred sons over daughters.

Since Mei Gui had arrived, everything was naturally different.

Having no real affection for the family of this body, upon hearing the news that the Beast Taming Sect was recruiting disciples, she packed her belongings, swept away all the household wealth, and set out on her quest for Cultivation alone.

Here, in a world entirely different from her previous life, all the mythical things were indeed real. Even the common folk knew that Immortals existed in this world.

Mei Gui left without guilt and never spared a thought for how the already poor farming family would manage after she had taken all their money.

On her journey, Mei Gui naturally encountered evildoers. Despite having a different body, her killing skills were ingrained in her soul, and with an unexpectedly ruthless demeanor contrary to her appearance, she fought back and killed several who disrespected her.

Of course, during this time, she stumbled upon her greatest Golden Finger, a shabby, cheap bracelet.

Concealed within it was a Divine Sense that knew everything past and present, high above in heaven and deep in ancient times.

With the guidance of this Divine Sense, Mei Gui, who had been accepted into the Beast Taming Sect despite her mediocre talent, grew rapidly.

Her composure and self-restraint also garnered the admiration of the entity within the bracelet, evolving from initially indifferent guidance to later planning diligently for her benefit.

It wasn’t until later that Mei Gui learned the unimpressive looking bracelet’s Divine Sense belonged to the Emperor from the Ninth Layer Heaven.

And this little bird, the original owner, was the spiritual beast the Emperor had found to protect Mei Gui.

This woman, Mei Gui, was vengeful and made enemies readily; even the Emperor found her impulsiveness and pride headache-inducing.

In her past life as an adept female assassin, her skills were superior, and common folk rarely stood a chance against her. However, once she entered the Cultivation World, she faced Cultivators with abilities to move mountains and overturn seas. With her modest martial prowess alone, she could only crawl on the ground and fawn over others.

But who was Mei Gui? She was a coldly beautiful and decisively fierce heroine. How could she possibly stoop to such actions?

Luckily, although her innate talent was lacking, her Luck was not.

She always managed to escape from dire situations, but being chased after offending others wasn’t a viable long-term plan, so the Emperor commanded her to find a drop of Phoenix essence blood left in this world and to establish a partnership contract.

This was also the very intention of the original owner.

The original owner’s hatching place was supposed to be absolutely unfindable by ordinary people, but Mei Gui happened upon it by chance.

When Mei Gui arrived, the timing coincidentally coincided with the original owner having nurtured herself for several hundred years and having accumulated enough strength to break free from her shell.

In order to break the shell, the original owner had used up all her strength, and just as she stuck her head out, she was stunned by a surprise attack.

Hiding nearby, Mei Gui, guided by the Divine Sense within her bracelet, cut her fingertip, squeezed out some essence blood, and threw it at the original owner’s head.

Although not of pure bloodline, the original owner still possessed Phoenix heritage, and in this small world, it was a bloodline of considerable standing; naturally, she would not willingly sign a contract with such an inferior disciple.

But having exhausted her strength just breaking out of the shell, even her desperate resistance couldn’t withstand the force of the forcibly made contract.

The original owner was exceptionally grieved and anguished, but her pride wouldn’t allow her to self-destruct rather than let this treacherous attacker succeed.

The destructive power of an Exotic Beast’s self-detonation is not something Mei Gui, a novice who had just stepped into the Immortal Realm, could neutralize, and the Divine Sense in the bracelet, being only a sense, couldn’t prevent her from sustaining some damage.

Mei Gui was severely injured by the original owner’s self-explosion, but her luck was incredible; what should have been a fatal situation was averted by a Shariputra that suddenly flew from her body.

This Shariputra was given to her as a free gift when she bought a Spirit Grass at a stall while passing through a marketplace on her way here.

She had thoughtlessly carried it with her, never expecting it to be a potent treasure that could withstand the self-explosion of the Exotic Bird and also suppress the latter.

The original owner’s tragedy deepened; she couldn’t even find solace in death.

Mei Gui, too, bore a grudge for the severe injuries inflicted by the original owner and, taking advantage of the original owner being faint from the Shariputra’s suppression, forcibly entered into a contract with her.

This time, it was not a contract of equals, but the most degrading servant contract.

Mei Gui as the master, the original owner as the servant.

Due to the existence of this contract, the master could drain all the strength from the servant whenever desired.

Mei Gui, unforgiving of the original owner’s resistance and without a shred of compassion, unhesitatingly absorbed the original owner’s power to recover her body.

Poor original owner, just a fledgling bird who had just hatched, saw most of her strength taken by Mei Gui.

Not only did the aggressor recover, she also leapt several levels, instantly advancing on the spot to become a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Whereas the original owner’s very foundation was destroyed.

Mei Gui simply used the original owner as a tool, tossing her out to confront powerful enemies and directly using her physical body as a shield.

In the beginning, constrained by Mei Gui’s level, the enemies she made were not particularly formidable, and the original owner could still hold her own against one or two of them.

But later, as the enemies Mei Gui attracted became increasingly powerful, the original owner’s ruined body, unable to advance and receiving no nurture from Mei Gui, regressed significantly, eventually becoming as ordinary as any other Exotic Beast.

As increasingly more Exotic Beasts surrounded Mei Gui, she no longer valued this rebellious Exotic Bird.

During one instance when being pursued by a Nascent Soul Expert, Mei Gui threw the original owner out to buy herself a little more time to escape.

Facing impending death, the original owner ironically felt relieved.

The sensation of wanting to die but being unable to, while still having her last drop of remaining value exploited by her enemy, was more agonizing to her than death itself.
