The immature voice was filled with disdain and contempt.

The Divine Beast Egg was incredibly irritable, immediately launching into a tirade.

"I was sleeping, and you’re not only waking me up, you damn well want a contract?"

"Do you know what that thing is between your ears?"

"A brainless moron!"

"Hurry up and put me back, or when I get out, you’ll be the first thing I eat!!!"

The Divine Beast Egg was full of bluster, so engrossed in its joyful cursing that it completely failed to notice Song Wanning’s expression.

She was all smiles, but her eyes grew increasingly dark, and a strange aura radiated from her body.

She just stared fixedly at the Divine Beast Egg.

The more viciously it cursed, the wider her smile grew.

Gradually, the Divine Beast Egg ran out of steam. It shut its mouth, finally sensing that something was off about Song Wanning.

’But so what? I’m a Divine Beast! As long as I’m unwilling to form a contract, these humans can’t force me, no matter how powerful they are.’

Seeing that Song Wanning didn’t seem angry at all, the Divine Beast Egg grew a little dissatisfied.

Its mind churned, and it came up with a wicked idea to mess with this shameless human.

"Hey, a lowly human like you isn’t worthy of my attention in the slightest."

"But if you kneel and kowtow to me a few times, I might consider signing a Master-Servant Contract with you!"

"However, I’ll be the master, and you’ll be the servant. Got it?"

"You want my power, don’t you? As long as you have a contract with me, you’ll be able to do whatever you want in the entire Cultivation World!"

"I’m not just bragging. In my inherited memories, our clan has fought on the Primordial Battlefield! Even that Great Demon was nothing but a piece of trash to us!"

"For a mere human like you, becoming my servant is a blessing you’ve earned over eight lifetimes!"

"So, what do you think? Made up your mind?"

The Divine Beast Egg looked down its nose at Song Wanning, not treating her like a person in the slightest.

’Back in the primordial era, the Human Clan was the lowest of the low—trash, nothing more than our food. To actually dream of becoming my master... what a pipe dream!’

Song Wanning said nothing, but the Golden Small Sword couldn’t take it anymore and shot out first.

"What’s a stinking egg like you got to be so arrogant about? How dare you curse my sister?"

"A Divine Beast? More like a fucking idiot, I’d say!!!!"

The Golden Small Sword had never seen anything as wildly arrogant as this Divine Beast Egg.

’My master’s cultivation is profound. Others are always respectful in her presence, and even if they feel defiant in their hearts, they would never dare to curse her so casually. When has my master ever been subjected to such disrespect?’

Unfortunately, it wasn’t very good at cursing, so it could only glow red in waves of fury.

"Hmph, and what do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like that?"

The Divine Beast Egg finally noticed the Golden Small Sword but still didn’t give it a second thought.

"Once I’ve taken her as my servant, the first thing I’ll do is have her destroy you!"

Although it couldn’t see the Divine Beast Egg’s expression, the Golden Small Sword could still feel a gaze full of contempt and malice fall upon it.

It flew back and forth anxiously, wishing it could just run the Divine Beast Egg through with one strike.

’But without Master’s command, I can’t attack. No matter how angry I am, Master’s grand plan has to come first.’

"Hey, lowly servant, have you made up your mind? If you don’t agree soon, I won’t even give you the chance to be my slave!"

The Divine Beast Egg was growing impatient.

’Dealing with these morons is a waste of time. I’d rather be sleeping!’

"Heh." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Song Wanning finally showed a reaction.

She stared at the Divine Beast Egg in her hand, the killing intent in her heart reaching its peak, yet the smile on her face remained unchanged.

She was heard saying softly, "I’ve made my decision..."

A flash of contempt crossed the Divine Beast Egg’s mind. ’I knew it. These lowly humans could never bear to give me up. They’d even become a slave just to form a contract with me and increase their own power. Since that’s the case, I’ll reluctantly accept a servant. In the future, she can do all the plundering, and I can just freeload without lifting a finger.’

"Alright then, hurry it up. After the contract, I need to get back to sleep!"

"It’s all your fault, you worthless things, wasting my precious sleeping time!"

The Divine Beast Egg truly looked down on the Human Clan, and its last shred of patience was gone.

Readying itself for the contract, it prepared to slack off, its mind completely focused on going to sleep.

This attitude made Song Wanning laugh in anger.

’I know Divine Beasts are always proud and majestic, and it’s normal for them to look down on the Human Clan; after all, even demon beasts are disdainful of humans. To conquer them, one can only use strength to force their submission! But for a Divine Beast to be this crass... it’s surprising. It shatters the idealized image I had of them. So this is the kind of creature it is—crude and unrefined. Does it really think it’s invincible just because it’s a Divine Beast? In this world, everything has a counter. It’s not up to some egg to call the shots.’

The smile on Song Wanning’s face abruptly vanished, the corners of her mouth turning down.

’I have no use for a Divine Beast like this. But I absolutely cannot leave it for Bai Yang. I can’t allow even the slightest possibility of that. In that case, there’s only one thing to do... Destroy it. Destroy this disgusting, filth-spewing thing.’

Her aura changed in an instant. Song Wanning struck at the Divine Beast Egg.

The Sword Dao True Realm instantly enveloped the Divine Beast Egg, and a will demanding submission bore down on it.

But the usual smooth success did not occur. The Divine Beast Egg was not affected by the "Heavenly Dao" and felt no urge to submit.

Instead, fury rose from its core, and it questioned loudly, "Lowly servant, what are you doing? Are you trying to kill me?"

"Oh, good, very good! And here I thought you were being so obedient. Turns out you were trying to kill me! I’ll fight you to the death!!!!"

The moment its voice fell, flames erupted around the Divine Beast Egg. It was the Divine Nether Profound Fire, ranked in the top three on the Abnormal Fire chart.

Divine Nether Profound Fire. Legend said it could incinerate a person’s will.

This fire primarily attacked the Divine Soul, its power far exceeding that of ordinary Abnormal Fires.

For a Cultivator, it was exceptionally dangerous. After all, physical injuries were easy to repair, but once the Divine Soul was wounded, it was extremely difficult to heal, requiring an immense amount of time.

Therefore, this fire was exceptionally domineering.

Song Wanning’s heart skipped a beat.

’I only knew that Bai Yang had a Divine Beast companion, but I’ve never seen its true form, nor did I know what its Innate Divine Ability was... So it’s the Divine Nether Profound Fire...’

"Haha, are you scared to death? Come on, come at me! Let me see what a lowly slave like you is capable of, trying to kill me!"

The Divine Beast Egg thought Song Wanning was scared stiff and couldn’t help but laugh arrogantly.

"Come on?!!!"

It bounced around wantonly within the Sword Dao True Realm, continuously provoking Song Wanning.

Song Wanning’s expression darkened.

’A Divine Beast’s Divine Soul is powerful. Even after slumbering for hundreds of millions of years, it’s still beyond me... My Sword Dao True Realm can’t affect it at all. Am I just going to let it go like this? No. Between the Divine Beast Egg and me, only one can live!’

Song Wanning’s expression hardened. She formed a hand seal and attacked the Divine Beast Egg.

To avoid causing a stir in the outside world and to enhance her own combat power, she tried to immerse her Divine Soul into the Sword Dao True Realm.

A feeling of holding dominion over all living things in the world instantly rose within her heart.
