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

Chapter 412 The Shock of the Two!
The three of them had been walking along the rugged mountain path for a short while when suddenly...
A centipede, over three feet long, shimmering with silver light, and with a ferocious yet magnificent appearance, darted past from a short distance to the right.

The sharp and terrifying aura emanating from him, though fleeting, caused the two to change color and instinctively stop in their tracks.

Fan Changming and Wu Shanshan were both on edge, feeling a bit scared, because they had recognized the centipede as the Silverback Centipede, a descendant of the ancient mythical insect!
At the same time, they both sensed a dangerous aura emanating from the centipede, feeling a chill run down their spines and tingle on their scalps.

The two immediately became cautious.

Because they both knew that, let alone Gu Yuan, they were no match for this centipede alone.

As for Qiuyue, she remained calm, because she had been warned by Gu Yuan in advance that there were some spirit pets that Gu Yuan kept free within the Baiyun Mountain area.

Therefore, she was not surprised at all.

Not long after we started walking, a huge snake, several meters long, lay across the road.

This large snake was quite strange. It was completely black, with almost no other colors. Its body was covered with fine scales that were tightly pressed together, and its eyes emitted a faint, eerie light.

The three of them immediately stopped in their tracks.

Fan Changming and Wu Shanshan were both horrified. They never expected that there would be such a monster here, which was no less powerful than the silver-backed centipede they had just seen.

As their divine senses probed the black serpent, they were clearly about to be devoured.

This eerie feeling, along with the strange situation of their divine senses being devoured, terrified the two of them so much that they dared not extend their divine senses again.

The two were quite shocked. They had heard of the Silverback Centipede before, and knew that Gu Yuan had such an ancient descendant of a rare insect.

In addition, there is also a descendant of an ancient mythical insect, the Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly.

Both of these strange insects were highly coveted items, even by the true disciples of the Gu God Sect. As a result, a true disciple of the Gu God Sect had previously offended Gu Yuan, which led to a life-or-death battle.

Such a treasure is enough for an ordinary disciple to dominate his peers with just one, but Gu Yuan has two, which makes many people envious and jealous, and they secretly marvel at Gu Yuan's good luck.

Who would have thought that such a strange snake would suddenly appear in Baiyun Mountain?!
One thing is certain: since this strange snake is here, it must be a spirit pet kept by Gu Yuan.

This strange snake gave them a sense of danger, even more so than the few true disciples they had seen, which made them feel even more unfathomable about Gu Yuan.

Even the spirit pets he keeps are comparable to those of a true disciple. This Senior Brother Gu truly lives up to his reputation as the "Golden Core Killer."

A strange look appeared on Qiuyue's face.

If she remembered correctly, this strange snake was not only Gu Yuan's spirit pet, but it wasn't even here when she came down the mountain.

Now it's blocking the road, standing in front of them. Could this be Gu Yuan's order?
Thinking this to herself, she stepped forward and waved her hand as if to shoo the Devouring Python away. The python lazily glanced at her, recognized Qiu Yue's identity, and made no other special move before slowly swimming away.

"Gentlemen, let's go now."

Qiuyue turned around to look at the two people behind her and said softly.

Fan Changming and Wu Shanshan looked at each other and then slowly followed.

This Senior Brother Gu is truly a hidden talent...

Besides the Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly and the Silver-backed Centipede, there is also such a terrifying python spirit pet. And these are all in the open. What about those in the shadows?

In an instant, Gu Yuan's image in their minds became even more mysterious and terrifying.

……

Before long, the three entered Gu Yuan's cave dwelling, which was the main hall he named "Baiyun Residence". Gu Yuan was playing with a jade-colored spirit pearl at this moment. He was wearing a purple robe embroidered with exquisite and luxurious patterns, which looked exceptionally good on him.

Furthermore, his handsome face and calm, composed demeanor gave him an air of mystery and nobility that was hard to describe.

"Your younger brother Fan Changming (younger sister Wu Shanshan) pays respects to Senior Brother Gu!"

Fan Changming and Wu Shanshan quickly bowed, their attitude quite polite, even showing a hint of awe.

There was nothing they could do; Gu Yuan was both mysterious and terrifying to them. Any one of his actions was something they could never do in their lifetime.

Among the many disciples, there was already a general consensus that this Senior Brother Gu was not on the same level as them. Among all the true disciples of Medicine King Mountain, only the First Senior Brother Li Changsheng was on the same level as him.

As for other true disciples such as Sun Zhong and Murong Wushuang, they were actually somewhat inferior.

Therefore, although many people secretly envied, were jealous and resentful of Gu Yuan, they had to admit this fact.

Gu Yuan's achievements, potential, strength, and future are beyond their reach.

"Junior Brother Fan and Junior Sister Wu, there's no need for such formalities, please have a seat."

Gu Yuan smiled and asked the two to sit down, then had Qiu Yue bring over some spiritual tea.

The two carefully accepted the gift, took a bite, and immediately felt refreshed and relaxed, as if they had been standing for decades and were finally able to sit down.

“Good tea!”

Fan Changming praised it highly: "This tea has a slightly sweet taste upon entry, followed by a bitter taste, and a long-lasting aftertaste. It also has the effect of refreshing the mind and improving eyesight. Drinking it for a long time will definitely be very beneficial for cultivation. It is indeed a rare and excellent tea..."

Gu Yuan said with a smile, "If Junior Brother Fan likes it, he should drink more. Um, Qiu Yue, when Junior Brother Fan and Junior Sister Wu leave later, each of you should take a pound to go."

"Yes!"

Qiuyue quickly responded.

"Thank you, senior brother!"

Fan Changming and Wu Shanshan were both quite surprised, but then their faces lit up with joy, and they quickly expressed their gratitude.

They were both discerning people and naturally knew that the spiritual tea they had just drunk was no ordinary thing. A pound of it would cost at least seven or eight hundred spirit stones, something they would never normally be willing to part with.

They practically wished they could split a spirit stone in half to save it up for buying elixirs and magical artifacts.

But now, Gu Yuan actually gave each of them a pound, a generous gesture that truly stunned the two of them.

As they spoke, they inevitably became more respectful.

Especially Wu Shanshan, whose gaze towards Gu Yuan was filled with a fiery tenderness, moist and almost like silk.

Gu Yuan didn't seem to care.

He had plenty of good stuff on him, and as for these spiritual teas, Gu Yuan himself didn't even know which dead man's storage bag he had found them in.

Gu Yuan himself didn't have many hobbies. Apart from alchemy and taming spirit beasts, he didn't have any other hobbies. As for spirit tea and spirit wine, he would drink some occasionally.
