Chapter 7149 Subdued

As it turned out, the beast was a black two-headed wolf... or so it seemed at first glance. It then became obvious that it was actually different from ordinary two-headed beings in that it didn’t have two fully separate heads. Rather, it had two snouts and an eye above each snout, as well as a third eye in the middle. It looked rather deformed, as if the two heads had attempted to fuse only to be interrupted midway; it was not the kind of being anyone here had ever seen. People’s hair stood on end just looking at it.

Even with the giant wolf restrained by the palace master, everyone still felt afraid. Their only thought was to flee and get as far away as possible from it.

The palace master, meanwhile, eyed it curiously. “A Two-Face Ghost Wolf from the outside world! And it’s a mutated variant too!”

Two-Face Ghost Wolves had unleashed devastation upon the nine heavens during the primal chaos war. Their ghost eyes were the nightmare of countless experts. These wolves had once dealt serious damage to the nine heavens and ten lands, as they attacked in massive numbers and had sinister abilities. With their wolf king directing them, they were a terrifying force in terms of both power and strategy.

No one had expected that Ying Luo’s contractual beast was a Two-Face Ghost Wolf, and a mutated one at that.

The wolf roared and struggled crazily. Its power caused the void to crack and twist even while it was restrained. People were terrified; if the palace master had not caught it off-guard, just how cataclysmic would that fight have been?

“Dean Long Chen, I suggest you kill it right now. Two-Face Ghost Wolves are among the outsider devils’ central pillars. They cannot be tamed,” said the palace master.

He knew what Long Chen was thinking. If it wasn’t for wanting to tame it, Long Chen wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to draw it out here. However, it was easy to tell from the way it struggled that it was simply too strong. It definitely wouldn’t submit to someone who was weaker than it. Unless a true Heavenly Sovereign came and subdued it with absolute power, there was no hope at all.

Long Chen said, “One of Ying Luo’s parents was from the Two-Face Ghost Wolf race. He had some of their blood in his veins. This particular Two-Face Ghost Wolf’s status must be special. In theory, there’s no way it would’ve ended up in a contract with a mixed-breed like Ying Luo. It seems that it formed the contract in order to control Ying Luo and have him provide it with food to help it grow.

“But this spiritual contract had the Two-Face Ghost Wolf as the dominant party. In other words, Ying Luo was really just a servant. Actually, the Two-Face Ghost Wolf’s position in the contract was so dominant and Ying Luo’s so inferior that his death didn’t even register at first. Basically, his life was so insignificant to it that it didn’t feel anything when he died.”

Everyone was startled to hear that. Did that not mean that Ying Luo was basically a puppet? A spy that the Two-Face Ghost Wolf race had placed in the human race?

Long Chen continued, “Without Ying Luo as an intermediary, it really would be impossible to subdue it. However, I have this...”

A blood-colored totem floated in front of Long Chen. This totem had the form of two wolves.

The Two-Face Ghost Wolf let out a furious roar when it saw this totem. All its black fur ignited with black flames. It clearly recognized this totem—it was the core of its spiritual contract with Ying Luo! Ying Luo had died, but Long Chen had somehow managed to preserve this totem. It hadn’t dissipated with Ying Luo’s death.

“Girl, come here,” said Long Chen, beckoning to Miao Yin.

Miao Yin was startled. Her heart leapt. She realized what Long Chen was thinking, and she hesitantly stepped forward. Her mouth opened several times, but she ultimately didn’t say anything.

“Place a drop of your essence blood onto it. I will help you subdue it!” said Long Chen.

The palace master originally wanted to say something about it, but thinking about it, he chose to remain silent.

He wanted to warn Long Chen that this wolf was simply too powerful. Even with the contract, it couldn’t be subdued. In fact, if they modified the contract this way, Miao Yin might immediately become its puppet. However, if he could think of it, Long Chen could also think of it. He had to have a reason for doing this, so the palace master chose to remain silent.

Miao Yin took a deep breath and placed a drop of her essence blood onto the totem. She showed no misgivings in front of Long Chen. But this beast was on the verge of becoming a Heavenly Sovereign. Having an ally at this level was one thing, but she had never even dreamed that she might get one as a pet.

Long Chen was still covered in blood, and his face was as pale as a piece of paper. He looked like a candle sputtering in the wind. He was only holding on thanks to his powerful will.

Miao Yin’s heart fluttered. She didn’t know why, but this scene suddenly felt a bit familiar to her. A subtle feeling appeared in her heart, something even she herself didn’t realize.

The totem quivered, and Miao Yin’s soul shuddered. A terrifying Spiritual Strength charged through the totem into her soul. This Spiritual Strength was as vast as the sea, as indomitable as a titanic mountain range. Miao Yin’s arguably immense power felt incredibly insignificant in front of this force. If this attack struck her soul, then this contract would instantly change. Due to the huge power disparity, she would become the puppet of the Two-Face Ghost Wolf.

“Purgatory Eyes!”

Long Chen snorted and suddenly activated his Purgatory Eyes. His eyes went black as ink instantly, and black blood flowed out of the corners of his eyes.

The space behind Long Chen shuddered. A pair of black eyes appeared in the air, and as they gazed down on the Two-Face Ghost Wolf, the wolf suddenly started trembling.

Black spots appeared in its three eyes. It was as if three blood moons were being corrupted. The wolf suddenly let out a painful howl; at the same time, its spiritual attack on Miao Yin was interrupted.

“Take control of the totem and suppress its Spiritual Strength to just a tenth!” Long Chen directed Miao Yin.

If Miao Yin’s Spiritual Strength occupied over ninety percent of the contract totem, then it would be equivalent to placing a slave seal on the Two-Face Ghost Wolf. It would never be able to defy Miao Yin’s will, and would become the most loyal of contracted beasts. If she couldn’t reach that threshold, then it would still have the potential of betraying her at a critical moment. In other words, this was the threshold between absolute security and a sharp sword hanging above her head at all times.

Miao Yin formed hand seals. The river of time appeared behind her once more. Thanks to it, Miao Yin’s Spiritual Strength quickly poured into the contract totem and began to occupy the majority of its runes. The Two-Face Ghost Wolf howled and struggled crazily, but it was suppressed by the Purgatory Eyes and unable to unleash the power of its bloody eyes. Miao Yin’s river of time also had a powerful suppressive effect on it, and now that it had lost the initiative, reclaiming the lost ground was impossible. It wasn’t long before over ninety percent of the contract totem’s runes were taken up by Miao Yin’s Spiritual Strength.

Suddenly, the contract totem quivered violently, then froze. The power raging within it had become fixed. The struggling Two-Face Ghost Wolf instantly calmed down.

“Heavens, it really worked...”

Countless people gasped when they saw this result.
