Beast Taming: Invincible Breeder-Chapter 457 - 442: Formidable Foe

Li Cunxu was taken aback; rewriting world rules is something only a deity could accomplish.

Was the schemer a god?

Impossible. In the Divine Beast World, due to certain special reasons, since the end of the Age of Giants, there have been no deities. During the Human Race era, becoming a deity was prohibited.

Currently, there isn’t a single native deity in the entire world.

Furthermore, deities cultivate authority, not laws. Myriad Phenomena Law would be useless to them.

"That strong person must be at the Emperor Peak, not just any Emperor Peak, but one with power comparable to a deity. Such a strong person can even engage with the old president temporarily without losing." Li Cunxu thought.

Such a formidable adversary had set eyes on Xiaoruan, causing Li Cunxu much distress, feeling completely insecure.

What’s more frustrating is that the enemy is in the dark, while Li Cunxu is in the open.

Looking at the headmaster in front of him, Li Cunxu suddenly felt a glimmer of hope and asked, "Can you find that strong person, headmaster?"

If found, Li Cunxu would try everything to plead the old president to get rid of them.

"Couldn’t find, that person is very good at hiding."

The headmaster was very certain, because when he looked into the past, he couldn’t clearly see the person’s appearance in the time past.

That person was so cautious even in the past time, evidently a super stealthy strong person.

Unwillingly, Li Cunxu asked, "What about the old president?"

The fact that the headmaster couldn’t find the person doesn’t mean the old president couldn’t. After all, the headmaster is just the avatar of the old president, naturally weaker than the original.

The headmaster replied, "Him? Give a few years, maybe he can find the person."

Upon hearing this, Li Cunxu realized there’s no chance; the old president has countless affairs to handle in the alliance, making it impossible for him to spare a few years to find someone. Besides, the person was targeting the Myriad Phenomena Law enforcer, not the Human Race; the old president had no reason to look for them.

After thinking it over, Li Cunxu decided there was only one way: go into hiding.

Confronting such a powerful rival, Li Cunxu had no other solution; the gap was too large, the only option was to hide.

He hoped to hide well enough that they couldn’t find Xiaoruan.

If I can’t beat you, at least I can avoid you, can’t I?

Anyway, time is on my side. At worst, I’ll lie low for decades, and reemerge when reaching an emperor level.

Li Cunxu shared his thoughts with the headmaster, who agreed with him. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

The headmaster nodded slightly, "Laying low in a corner, waiting for the right moment, is a good plan."

However, before hiding, Li Cunxu summoned Xiaoruan to let the headmaster inspect.

Li Cunxu was worried that Xiaoruan’s exposure of the Myriad Phenomena Law had already attracted that strong person who might have secretly approached and placed a tracking mark on Xiaoruan.

Being cautious and suspicious, Li Cunxu thought this was quite possible.

Besides, having the headmaster assist with the inspection wouldn’t cost anything, so why not.

The headmaster conducted a comprehensive inspection on Xiaoruan.

During the inspection, the headmaster suddenly blurted out in surprise, as if discovering something unexpected.

Li Cunxu asked, "What is it?"

The headmaster replied, "There is one good news and three bad news, which would you like to hear first?"

"The good news."

Li Cunxu thought for a moment and said.

The headmaster said, "You don’t need to rush to hide. I am sure, even if your Xiaoruan reaches the emperor level, they won’t hurry to harvest the Myriad Phenomena Law. I estimate they will wait until your Xiaoruan advances to Emperor Nine before harvesting."

Li Cunxu was surprised, "Wait until Xiaoruan reaches Emperor Nine to harvest Xiaoruan’s Myriad Phenomena Law? Are they so confident in themselves? Aren’t they afraid Xiaoruan might counter-kill?"

The headmaster confirmed, "Not afraid."

Li Cunxu didn’t know what point the headmaster based this judgment on, but Li Cunxu believed that Xiaoruan reaching Emperor Nine could counter-kill that person, exhibiting confidence in Xiaoruan’s strength.

Li Cunxu asked, "How likely do you think it is for that strong person to wait for Xiaoruan to reach Emperor Nine before harvesting?"

The headmaster replied, "98%."

"98%? Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake, was 9.8% mistakenly said as 98%."

"Precisely, 98%."

"Why so high? Even if they are not afraid of being counter-killed, aren’t they worried that once Xiaoruan reaches the emperor level, they might be intercepted by other emperor-level strong persons?"

Xiaoruan’s Myriad Phenomena Law is a sought-after prize among other emperors with rare laws.

Li Cunxu could already envision Xiaoruan, upon reaching the emperor level, becoming the target of many emperor-level strong persons.

The headmaster again confirmed, "Unafraid, because your Xiaoruan will never die at the hands of other emperors."

"Why?"

The more Li Cunxu inquired, the more confused he became.

The headmaster said, "This question is related to the bad news."

Li Cunxu asked, "What are the three bad news?"

"The first bad news, you guessed it, that strong person set a tracking method on Xiaoruan, moreover I can’t solve this tracking method."

With good news first, it doesn’t really matter whether the tracking method can be removed, after all, that strong person won’t act before Xiaoruan reaches Emperor Nine.

Curiously, Li Cunxu asked, "If the old president acts, can they resolve the tracking method?"

The headmaster said, "Him? Unlikely."

"Is this tracking method so sophisticated that even the president struggles?"

"Their tracking method is deeply bound to Xiaoruan, even deities couldn’t resolve it."

Pausefully, the headmaster’s gaze deepened, "The second bad news is that the opponent is a super strong person using the Destiny Law."

Li Cunxu was shocked. There actually exists an Emperor Nine of the Destiny Law; instantly, his scalp tingled as Destiny Law enforcers are the hardest to kill and most enigmatic.

Simultaneously, Li Cunxu sensed a crisis.

That strong person probably intended to absorb Xiaoruan’s Myriad Phenomena Law to enhance his Destiny Law.

The causality law of Little White Spider is also a kind of Destiny Law, and that strong person’s Destiny Law can likewise absorb it.

This implies Li Cunxu’s pets, Xiaoruan and Little White Spider, upon reaching the emperor level, would be targeted by that strong person.

"How do you know they use Destiny Law, headmaster?"

"That person is already deeply bound with Xiaoruan’s destiny, this is why I cannot undo their tracking method."

Li Cunxu asked, "Is it possible to track them through the destiny binding with Xiaoruan?"

Annoyed, the headmaster said, "I can’t even unbind the destiny, do you think I can trace them through it?"

"The third bad news is, that person has applied fortune borrowing on Xiaoruan.

They’ve lent their own fortune to Xiaoruan to protect them; if any other emperor-level strong person attempts to kill Xiaoruan, Xiaoruan would, due to fortune, escape danger, but the downside is that borrowing implies repaying. They can forcibly make Xiaoruan repay the fortune borrowed. Even if Xiaoruan acquires Emperor Nine strength, they would lose the power to resist in an instant."

No wonder the headmaster deduced a 98% probability that they would wait for Xiaoruan to advance to Emperor Nine before killing, and harvesting Myriad Phenomena Law.

Xiaoruan at Emperor Nine poses no threat to them; they will definitely wait for the Myriad Phenomena Law to grow plump before harvesting.

As for denying the opportunity of lending their fortune to Xiaoruan?

That’s impossible, Xiaoruan’s Myriad Phenomena Law is well-known; in breaking through to the emperor level, they will surely encounter other emperor-level strong persons, and whenever they face danger in battle, it provides them the chance to lend fortune to Xiaoruan.
