Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 362 The Shocked Su Xiaoyue!

"Fellow Daoist Su."

Gu Yuan nodded, which was his way of greeting him.

Hu Xiaoyue's beautiful and delicate face changed for a moment, then she stood up and bowed with a slightly awkward and apprehensive expression: "This humble servant greets Fellow Daoist Gu... Gu."

Given Gu Yuan's current reputation and even his cultivation level, it is only natural that she would be so polite.

In the cultivation world, the strong are always respected. Moreover, given Gu Yuan's reputation in the Southern Border cultivation world, he is considered one of the top three figures among the younger generation.

As for Su Xiaoyue, she doesn't even rank in the top tier.

When dealing with someone like that, keeping a low profile is definitely the right thing to do.

The only thing that puzzled her was why Gu Yuan had come here.

Wasn't Gu Yuan at Qiongming Immortal Workshop before?

Could it be that she came here for my sake?

Hu Xiaoyue's expression shifted, feeling somewhat uneasy, unsure of Gu Yuan's purpose.

Gu Yuan glanced at Hu Xiuniang, then at Hu Xiaoyue, and seemed to be deep in thought.

At his current level of cultivation, ordinary spells or supernatural abilities can hardly escape his notice.

Even if you can fool his eyes, you absolutely cannot fool his sword heart perception.

In Gu Yuan's perception, although the two women in front of him were of completely different ages, and one was a demon cultivator while the other was just an ordinary human woman, Gu Yuan could see that the two women had some similarities in appearance.

They all exude a captivating allure.

Of course, Su Xiuniang's allure wasn't particularly strong, but in Gu Yuan's eyes it was somewhat abnormal. It wasn't the kind of charm that comes from a woman's beautiful appearance, but rather a seductive allure with a special attraction.

Gu Yuan believed that if Su Xiuniang were willing, she could absolutely make the vast majority of ordinary men fall head over heels for her.

So here comes the question.

How could an ordinary woman have such abilities?

Furthermore, Su Xiuniang's surname is Su, and this fox demon Su Xiaoyue also has the surname Su, plus the two have quite similar temperaments and appearances.

This... inevitably led Gu Yuansheng to make a guess.

That means Su Xiuniang is also a fox spirit!

Its cultivation level may be ordinary, but it is definitely a demon, or rather, it possesses the bloodline of the demon race.

They simply concealed their identity and background for certain reasons.

After this suspicion arose in Gu Yuan's mind, he activated his cultivation and sensed something amiss.

Indeed, a faint demonic aura was hidden within Su Xiuniang's body. Although it was hidden very deeply and was barely perceptible, it was real.

With Gu Yuan's current cultivation foundation, let alone Su Xiuniang, even a Golden Core cultivator in person would probably not be able to hide his identity.

Because nowadays, Gu Yuan's supernatural abilities are extremely solid, and his soul essence is also extraordinary!
The rudiments of the two great divine abilities, Chaotic Divine Thunder and Boundless Divine Escape, along with three other top-tier divine abilities, gave him an extremely solid foundation and also endowed him with extraordinary perception.

Thunder is extremely effective against demonic power, and the Chaos Divine Thunder he cultivated is even more so.

Gu Yuan hadn't consciously sensed it before, but now, with just a little effort, he easily detected the demonic aura emanating from the two women.

In truth, even if Gu Yuan didn't have such a strong foundation, his soul essence, surpassing that of a Golden Core cultivator, already granted him unimaginable sensory abilities. With a little attention, he wouldn't be able to hide the true identities of the two women from him either.

Gu Yuan himself was fine with this feeling, but Su Xiaoyue and Su Xiuniang felt that Gu Yuan had suddenly changed, as if he had become a majestic and solemn thunder god who controlled the heavens and earth and held the power of life and death.

His body was surrounded by lightning, a force that was both vital and destructive.

It seemed that if even one of the lightning bolts were to be released, it would be enough to turn both of them into charred remains.

Su Xiaoyue's cultivation was quite profound, so she was in a better position, though her face turned pale. She took a few steps back in fright, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise and uncertainty.

As for Su Xiuniang, she was so frightened that her legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground. If Su Xiaoyue hadn't been quick-witted and caught her, she would have definitely fallen.

Gu Yuan snapped out of his daze, a hint of apology appearing on his face: "I'm sorry."

As he spoke, he quickly calmed the internal energy within his body, and the two women then felt a little better.

"Brother Gu, what's wrong with you...?"

Lin Zhou hesitated for a moment. He hadn't expected that Gu Yuan would know his wife's older sister, Su Xiaoyue.

Gu Yuan glanced at the two women whose expressions were constantly changing, and couldn't help but laugh, "Brother Lin, you should know Fellow Daoist Su's true identity, right?"

Lin Zhou's expression changed several times, but he finally nodded: "That's right, I know some."

Although he was an ordinary person, he was not stupid. After spending so much time with Su Xiuniang, how could he not have sensed something was amiss?

However, due to certain reasons and some panic, he did not reveal it and planned to find an opportunity to have a good talk with his wife, Su Xiuniang.

Especially this time, Su Xiaoyue came to his door and directly revealed some things, showing him a wonderful and dangerous world, and also revealed her and Niangzi's identities, which made him uneasy.

Furthermore, Su Xiaoyue kept saying she wanted to take Su Xiuniang back, so he was naturally reluctant and unwilling to part with her.

But how could he, an ordinary person, be a match for a demon cultivator like Su Xiaoyue?
He was quite annoyed, but unexpectedly, his old friend Gu Yuan came to visit him.

Seeing Lin Zhou's reaction, Gu Yuan understood what he was thinking and looked at Su Xiaoyue: "Brother Lin is an old friend of mine. May I ask what business Fellow Daoist Su has with him?"

"Could you please let him go for my sake?"

"Fellow Daoist Gu is too kind."

Su Xiaoyue forced a smile and said, "Lin Zhou is also my brother-in-law, how could I possibly make things difficult for him?"

"To be honest, Fellow Daoist Gu, I came here this time on the orders of my aunt to take my younger sister back. I have no other intentions."

Su Xiaoyue looked at Su Xiuniang:

"Although my sister only possesses a portion of our Celestial Fox clan's bloodline due to certain reasons, making her a half-demon, her talent in cultivation is exceptionally outstanding. Bringing her back is solely to awaken the Celestial Fox clan's heritage and embark on the path of cultivation. I have absolutely no other intentions."

Su Xiaoyue explained softly, without the slightest impatience, and even revealed some secrets.

Gu Yuan's words just now had certainly intimidated her.

She also knew that Gu Yuan's reputation was earned step by step through his own extraordinary combat abilities.

She was actually quite proud of the supernatural powers and magic of her own Celestial Fox clan. She thought to herself that even if she couldn't defeat Gu Yuan, she could at least negotiate.

Having sensed the terrifying aura emanating from Gu Yuan, Su Xiaoyue was shocked to discover that, let alone escape, her entire body ached and her legs were weak, she couldn't muster any fighting spirit at all, and she couldn't even circulate her demonic energy.
