Chapter 45 Your Beast Taming Instructor

Who is this?
Jian Ning's eyes widened in disbelief.

Then, she saw a crane descending from the sky, getting closer and closer.

Its wings are as white as snow, and each feather seems to radiate a soft light.

Above the crane was a man dressed in a moon-white robe.

Jian Ning swallowed nervously. Is this... is this still the modern world?
Where did the cultivation system go?

But the surrounding scenery hadn't changed at all; her house and the unfinished building in the distance were still there, so it must be modern times.

The crane landed smoothly on the lawn in her yard, and the man also got off the crane and looked at her.

Whether it was a resonance among cultivators or not, the man exuded a strong sense of pressure the moment he appeared.

Jian Ning raised her hand, moved her stiff lips, and said very politely, "Hi, hello."

What are you here for?

The man approached. His hair was jet black, tied up in a high bun and secured with a white jade hairpin. A few stray strands fell on either side of his face, adding a touch of casualness. His features were well-defined, and his eyes held a natural, sharp, and dangerous glint.

Her outfit was exactly like the kind of costume you'd see in a fantasy drama.

Anyway, no matter how Jian Ning looked at him, he didn't seem like a modern person.

“Su Yufeng, your beast taming instructor.” He spread his hands.

Upon hearing this, Jian Ning immediately understood that this was the reward for completing the mission.

The system didn't tell her beforehand; she thought it was a reward of a beast-taming guide, but instead, it directly rewarded her with a man.

She went up to them, mimicking the fist-and-palm salute from TV dramas, trying to appear more polite.

"Hello, I'm Jian Ning. Thank you for your hard work these past few days. Should I call you Master?"

Su Yufeng's dark eyes narrowed: "No need."

He couldn't bear to hear the word "father".

Jian Ning instantly felt an invisible pressure from all around her.

She thought for a moment, realizing that the other person might not like that form of address, and changed it to, "Then I'll call you teacher, okay? Teacher Su?"

Su Yufeng remained calm and waved his hand, "Whatever you like. When will the beast taming instruction begin?"

It had a bit of a "rush to finish the task" feel to it.

Seeing that the three-day countdown had already begun, Jian Ning wanted to make the most of her time and learn as much as she could.

"Let's begin now, Ms. Su, please come in."

Jian Ning gestured for the teacher to enter first.

Although she had a lot of questions, she couldn't ask them directly since they had just met. She would wait until they were more familiar with each other before asking.

As Su Yufeng passed by her, he stared at her for a moment, his pupils contracting as if he were remembering an old friend.

"It's you!"

Jian Ning looked up and met his gaze. Judging from his tone, it meant...

"Have you known me before?"

Su Yufeng glanced at her.

Jian Ning's waist-length hair was casually tied into a messy bun. She wore a loose-fitting light blue short-sleeved shirt with a red string on her wrist and white shorts, which clearly showed off her long, fair, and straight legs.

"It doesn't look like it; I must have been mistaken."

Miss Ning of Wufang City is proud and arrogant; she would never be so frivolous as she appears before us.

Jian Ning felt a hint of contempt in his eyes. She gritted her teeth and thought, "What a lousy instructor! The system would be so much better if they just gave me an instruction manual!"
Su Yufeng: "You're insulting me."

Jian Ning entered the room, sat down on a futon on the ground, patted another futon, and laughed, "No, no, you're overthinking it. Teacher, come, sit down, let's begin the beast taming instruction."

Su Yufeng didn't argue with her.

If that damn system hadn't found him and said it had a way to kill him, he wouldn't have agreed to come here as a beast taming instructor. For a demon lord like himself to teach a guy whose Qi Refining stage wasn't even stable how to tame beasts was a joke.

"Have you studied the basics of beast taming, its origins and development?"

Jian Ning shook her head and said truthfully, "Teacher, I have the skill of taming beasts, but I don't know anything about it. Right now, I can only understand some beast language and talk to them."

Su Yufeng glanced at her, a sense of resigned helplessness washing over him.

"Alright, then I'll start with the most basic knowledge of beast taming."

Jian Ning nodded. "Okay."

Her eyes were wide and round, filled with a thirst for knowledge.

After half an hour.

Su Yufeng's voice flowed like a clear spring.

"Beast taming is the earliest form of contracting with wild animals to obtain food and protect territory in harsh environments. In the cultivation world, techniques, pills, artifacts, and formations are the main focus, but most cultivators will contract with spirit beasts. Each spirit beast has its own strengths, so there are also specialized beast taming sects that breed and sell spirit beasts, like my Xuan Yu Crane..."

Jian Ning rested her hand on the coffee table in the living room, propped her head up with her hand, and couldn't help but yawn again.

This class is so hypnotic.

She felt a sudden pain on her forehead, immediately opened her eyes, sat up straight, and said with a proper attitude: "Teacher, I'm listening!"

Su Yufeng continued reading: "Like my Xuan Yu Crane, it can fly hundreds of thousands of miles a day. When it fights, its wings transform into arrows. No cultivator below the Golden Core stage can withstand its attack. It has the strength to fight against a Nascent Soul cultivator."

He asked, "Do you have a spirit beast?"

Jian Ning nodded. "I guess so."

Su Yufeng: "If it exists, it exists. What do you mean 'should'? Summon it, let me take a look."

Jian Ning called out towards the door, "Xiao Bai! Oreo!"

The little white kitten ran towards her with a brisk pace, rubbing its head against her palm and squinting comfortably.

The Border Collie and Alaskan Malamute puppies must have run off somewhere to play; they probably didn't hear her voice and didn't come over.

Jian Ning introduced it to him: "Teacher, this is one of my spirit beasts."

Su Yufeng glanced at it, and finally a hint of certainty appeared in his eyes: "With such a low cultivation level, you were able to tame a low-level rare spirit detective cat. You have quite the luck."

Jian Ning asked in surprise: "A low-level rare spirit detective cat?"

"Hmm, a low-level rare spirit detective cat with exceptional sense of smell and sight. It feeds on shadow rats and crystal fish and has a natural ability to detect things. However, yours is still a kitten and has very little spiritual power. After you form a contract with it, raise it well and when it grows up, it will not only be able to guard the house, but its combat power will also be extraordinary."

Jian Ning asked curiously, "Then what price does the Beast Taming Sect charge for such low-level rare spirit detective cats?"

"Most low-level rare spirit beasts cost between tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of spirit stones. They possess unique bloodlines or innate abilities. Are you going to sell it?"

Jian Ning quickly shook her head, "Of course not, I was just asking about the market."

As they were talking, a few more cats ran in.

They were afraid that Jian Ning would secretly feed Xiao Bai only cat treats, after all, they had caught Jian Ning doing this several times before!

Upon seeing the cats, Su Yufeng asked, "Are you from the Beast Taming Sect?"

“No,” Jian Ning denied.

"Then how do you have so many low-level rare spirit beasts? Only the Beast Taming Sect breeds spirit beasts."

Jian Ning wanted to explain, but felt that she couldn't explain it clearly, so she said, "Teacher, this is not the world of cultivation."

"No wonder the spiritual energy is so thin even though you set up a spiritual energy gathering array." Su Yufeng looked around. "Where is this place?"

Jian Ning: "This is the modern world. No one here cultivates immortality. I might be the first."

Su Yufeng looked at her curiously.

The scene suddenly transformed into Jian Ning giving him a lesson.
