Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 171 Agunas_1

"Hey! Pei Yu! Stop running!"

Seeing Pei Yu rush out the door, Zhong Liuyan and Pei Yu’s mother anxiously chased after him, while Teacher Mu, worried about the two, glanced at Feng Yuan and hurriedly followed. Feng Yuan glared fiercely at the girl, grabbed Qi Chen, and followed them out. The girl didn’t chase after the crowd, but instead gently patted the toy in her arms and said

"What strange people~ Right, Xiao Jin?"

However, the toy didn’t respond. After holding the toy and remaining silent for a while, the girl turned and disappeared back the way she came.

Following Pei Yu, everyone scrambled throughout the labyrinth-like E Hua Temple. Pei Qing, ahead, seemed impatient and, turning around, gestured with his hand. Ferocious flames roared toward Pei Yu, who raised his hand to protect himself with a brown barrier. Pei Qing, watching the others follow, said menacingly,

"If you keep this up, I won’t be polite anymore!"

Pei Yu didn’t respond. With a strike to the ground, several spikes emerged at Pei Qing’s feet. Pei Qing rolled away to dodge the attack, and with another gesture, a piercing ice wind howled towards the group. Using the ice wind as cover, Pei Qing quietly moved behind Pei Yu and, with a stone blade forming in his hand, he prepared to viciously stab Pei Yu in the back.

A multitude of white chains appeared from the void, striking fiercely at Pei Qing. Forced to use his stone blade to ward off and dodge the chains, Pei Qing gave the others a chance to command their Spirit Beasts to capture him. Looking at Pei Qing bound by the chains, Pei Yu approached Feng Yuan with a cold expression and said,

"Lend me the Greatsword."

Feng Yuan opened his mouth, sighed, placed the Greatsword into the ground, and turning around, said,

"Do what you want, I’ll take a look around..."

After a while, Qi Chen, pale, caught up. Feng Yuan looked at him, shook his head and sighed,

"Is he done venting?"

Qi Chen’s face was a mixture of emotions as he scanned Feng Yuan. After a long pause, he began to speak slowly,

"You guessed it already?"

"What else? With that look and demeanor, isn’t it easy to guess what he’s up to?"

"Why! Why didn’t you stop him!"

Qi Chen shouted at Feng Yuan, who calmly replied while petting the confused Xiao Ji, freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"Letting him vent is fine. Although I don’t know what she did, to make him so angry, it mustn’t be something as simple as just killing Duomeng."

"But..."

"With the odd atmosphere inside the E Hua Temple, we help him hide it, and what can the others say? Investigate? Heh, anyone capable enough to surpass the Wolf God Giant Sword’s influence won’t bother with such trivial matters."

"You!"

Seeing Feng Yuan, Qi Chen suddenly felt he was a stranger. Hearing their conversation, Teacher Mu coughed and then said,

"What’s done is done; talking about it now is pointless... If you can, please help Pei Yu conceal this matter, okay?"

"But..."

Watching the conflicted Qi Chen, Feng Yuan gently stroke Xiao Ji’s head and whispered,

"If you don’t want to lie, just say you saw nothing."

"Isn’t that lying!"

"It’s just an illusion; what you saw was fake. Pei Qing died at the hands of those lunatics in E Hua Temple, what does it have to do with Pei Yu? There are so many lunatics; if you aren’t afraid of trouble, go ahead and check them one by one~"

"This... I..."

"Ji?!"

Hearing the egg he was sitting on crack, Xiao Ji quickly jumped up and climbed onto Feng Yuan’s head, poking his head out to look at the egg. The egg rapidly developed cracks and shook incessantly. A golden light squeezed through the cracks, and as the shaking became more intense, there was a crisp crack, and a small head pushed through the top of the eggshell.

After placing the sky-blue crocodile dressed in a Ritual Robe and clutching an Ancient Book in his hoodie, Feng Yuan took off his backpack and slung it over his shoulder casually. The Little Crocodile, hugging the book and curiously peeking around, stood inside the hood. Qi Chen, puzzled by the small crocodile behind Feng Yuan, asked,

"Why did an egg given by the White Wolf Deity hatch a crocodile?"

"What crocodile? It’s Agunas, okay? You didn’t really think the egg from the White Wolf Deity would hatch a Little White Wolf, did you..."

"What kind of Spirit Beast is Agunas?"

Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with confusion and then turned to Teacher Mu, who, after a moment of contemplation, said somewhat helplessly,

"I don’t think I’ve ever heard of this Spirit Beast’s name before."

"That’s to be expected; Agunas died in the later stages of the Mythical Era. How could you have heard of it? Probably only ancient existences like the Cat God and the Twin Gods of Time and Space might still remember it."

"The Cat God?"

Seeing Teacher Mu’s confusion, Qi Chen said speechlessly,

"That’s Drudgeon. During the Tribal Era, humans referred to it as Lord Cat God..."

Xiao Ji, curious, perched on Feng Yuan’s head and looked at Agunas inside the hood, crying out a few times. Remembering something, Feng Yuan reached out and gently touched Agunas in the hood, saying,

"Lend me your power for a moment."

Agunas lifted its head in confusion. Sighing, Feng Yuan reached out helplessly and said,

"Come to the front."

With a bewildered air, Agunas climbed onto Feng Yuan’s shoulder. Holding Agunas in his arms, Feng Yuan said,

"I now need to correct a segment of time that has been overly tampered with. You should have the ability to do that now, right?"

Agunas nodded in puzzlement, casually tossing the Ancient Book it held. The book floated in the air, enlarged, and slowly opened. Seeing the golden script within it, inscribed with unreadable characters, Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan in surprise and said,

"Are you about to correct history right now?"

"Yes, the longer we delay, the more will be affected, and the consequences will be more severe."

As Feng Yuan spoke, he began muttering strange phrases under his breath, while Agunas repeated Feng Yuan’s words. Behind Feng Yuan, a shadow of an ancient World Clock appeared. The hands on its face moved counterclockwise. His Wolf God’s Robe emitted a faint glow. In the next moment, the golden script from the Ancient Book flew out and revolved around Feng Yuan. Qi Chen couldn’t help but take a few steps back.

The golden script spun faster and faster. Feng Yuan seemed to be enveloped in the golden light. As the brightness dimmed, it revealed Yognot and the girl holding Drudgeon, previously concealed by the gleam. Seeing Feng Yuan, Drudgeon’s puzzled voice echoed in his ear,

"I remember you; you seem to be from the future. What are you doing here again?"

"There’s something I need to set right, but... this doesn’t seem to be the location from before?"

After hesitating for a moment, Drudgeon said,

"The fuss it caused back then was a bit much. To avoid disturbances from others, we decided to help it find a different resting place."

"Can you take me to that valley from back then?"

"What for?"

"To correct a mistake."

Feng Yuan proceeded to explain to Drudgeon the events that transpired after his return. Drudgeon glanced at him and said in an exasperated voice,

"You should have dealt with this back then. It must be quite a mess now, huh?"

"Not really. It’s just that the Transcend Sect has gotten involved. It doesn’t affect me much, but constantly having them cause trouble isn’t great either. Besides, Captain Yang seems like a decent guy; helping him out while I’m at it is no bother—"

"Saying one thing but feeling another... never mind. Red, just stay here and keep it company. I’ll take him to the valley."

Drudgeon leaped out from the girl’s arms and approached Feng Yuan. It wasn’t until then that Drudgeon noticed the Little Crocodile in Feng Yuan’s arms, and his voice, filled with surprise, resounded,

"That’s Agunas!"

"Don’t look at me; I didn’t do it. I’m not that bored to pull something like this."

"Then it..."

"Didn’t we come to capture the false shards of the World Clock last time? Those shards turned into its egg on their own in the Land of Time Tranquility."

"Of course, I suppose it was Him behind it all. After being played like this, He must’ve wanted some sort of safeguard."

Looking at Agunas in Feng Yuan’s arms, with its pure and curious gaze at everything, Drudgeon’s voice, tinged with a hint of sorrow, whispered in Feng Yuan’s ear,

"It isn’t really Agunas, is it..."
