Chu Qing turned to look at Ye Chenxi. Ye Chenxi looked at him proudly. Chu Qing smiled helplessly and shook his head. Without Ye Chenxi, he might still be in a lot of trouble.
"I will become your mount, can you take me away now?" The ferocious beast looked at Chu Qing and asked.
Chu Qing nodded, walked up to it, touched its head, and said, "From today on, you will be my, Chu Qing's, mount."
The ferocious beast nodded, lay down at Chu Qing's feet and let out a cry. Although it was unwilling to become a mount, compared to being left alone in the forest, the grievance was nothing.
"Don't look aggrieved. You won't suffer a loss by following me." Chu Qing said with a smile, feeling very helpless at the aggrieved look on the beast's face.
Ye Chenxi stood aside and laughed. It was not in vain that she had spent a lot of time thinking. In fact, the ferocious beast was just afraid of loneliness, so it kept pestering them and wanted to be with them. In this case, she can successfully make it surrender by explaining the truth to it clearly and then using its psychology.
"Now that the matter has been successfully resolved, let's hurry up and hurry up." Chu Qing said to Ye Chenxi. They still had to rush back to deal with the spy matter.
Ye Chenxi nodded and walked out of the woods with Chu Qing and the beast. There were no ferocious beasts to cause trouble this time, so Chu Qing and his party quickly walked out of the woods. Looking at the woods behind them, Chu Qing felt that they had gained a lot this time, but it was a pity for the hundred-year-old immortal.
The few people traveled for another half day and then found a place to rest. Ye Chenxi checked the beast's injuries and found that it was much better. If nothing unexpected happened, it would be fully recovered tomorrow.
Seeing that Chu Qing and Ye Chenxi were having a hard time traveling, the ferocious beast said, "Since I have become your mount, come up and we will go back together."
Chu Qing frowned and said, "Your injury is not healed yet."
The ferocious beast shook its head, lay on the ground, and said, "My injury is not serious, come up quickly."
Chu Qing looked at Ye Chenxi, who nodded to him and said, "Its injury has indeed improved a lot."
Chu Qing looked up at the sky. It was getting dark too. If they continued walking, they would not be able to reach the city at night, and there were pursuers behind them. Night was the easiest time to be attacked.
"All right."
Chu Qing turned over and sat on the beast, then stretched out his hand to pull Ye Chenxi up, and then said to the beast: "If you feel that you can't hold on, tell me, now is not the time to show off."
The ferocious beast nodded without saying a word, stood up and ran away. In fact, it just suffered a skin injury. Although it was serious, it was mostly healed after Ye Chenxi's treatment. Chu Qing didn't need to worry at all.
With the help of the ferocious beast, Chu Qing and Ye Chenxi arrived at the Ye family quickly. However, when the people of the Ye family saw the ferocious beast, they all showed fear in their eyes.
"What kind of beast is this and why is it here?"
"Come here, bring weapons." The Ye family yelled, looking at the sudden appearance of the ferocious beast with fearful expressions on their faces.
"stop!"
Ye Chenxi jumped down from the beast, then stopped in front of the beast and looked at the Ye family, and said with an upright face: "It's me, I'm back."
"Master? Why are you... with this beast?"
The people of the Ye family looked at Ye Chenxi in confusion, wondering why she got off the beast. It seemed that she knew the beast.
Chu Qing also jumped off the beast, walked to stand next to Ye Chenxi, and said to the Ye family: "Put away your swords. This is my mount. It sent us back."
The people of the Ye family looked at Chu Qing in surprise, and then at the ferocious-looking beast behind them, some not believing Chu Qing's words.
