Beast Taming: Starting From Zero-Chapter 634: Directly Attacking the Beast Master

Yabao still remembered what it meant when his beast master made this gesture.

He raised his head, and an orb of terrifying red energy instantly formed deep in his throat before shooting upward.

This… this is a Meteor Rain?! The woman’s heart nearly stopped at the sight, an uncontrollable wave of anxiety and panic surging within her.

They had miscalculated their judgment of this beast master, who bore an orange-yellow star array. Originally, they thought they only needed a beast master capable of restraining spatial shift to intercept her.

However, they hadn’t anticipated that all four of her beasts were carried with her, allowing aerial combat.

Moreover, these four beasts seemed anything but ordinary, overwhelming them almost immediately.

And now, she was even unleashing such large-scale attack skills…

Without hesitation, the woman abandoned her previous thoughts and shouted decisively:

"Retreat!"

"Hou Shi!"

Howling Swallow let out a sharp cry, flapping its wings forcefully as it quickly withdrew.

"Candice! Get back here!" Dick shouted in shock and rage, unable to believe she was leaving him behind.

"I'll send someone to save you!" Candice’s voice grew distant.

Dick's face twitched violently, veins bulging on his forehead.

Originally, he wasn’t even responsible for this area. He had only come because his ability happened to counter a spatial-moving beast.

Who would have thought that before he could even summon his ace beast, he’d end up captured and now abandoned by his so-called teammate?

If word of this got out, where would he put his face?

"Candice…" Dick glared at the fleeing woman, eyes full of fury. He swore to make her pay when he got back.

At that moment, the red energy orb reached its peak.

With a boom, fire rained down from above.

Tied up as he was, Dick couldn’t see the descending fire, but the rising temperature and the noise of the falling flames filled him with dread.

Just as he was about to call for Moonlam, Qiao Sang’s calm voice rang out:

"Don’t worry. She’s not getting away."

Dick lifted his head to look at the girl not far away.

That movement also allowed him to see the fiery rain filling the sky.

It was as if an inferno had swallowed the heavens, forming a backdrop around her.

Perched on her beast, the girl’s hair and eyes seemed dyed crimson, yet her expression remained indifferent and unconcerned.

Then, he saw Candice and Howling Swallow suddenly yanked back by a dark shadow.

Candice screamed:

"Ah-!"

Her voice was quickly drowned out by the explosion of flames upon impact.

The fire struck Howling Swallow directly, rendering it unconscious in an instant as it plummeted downward.

"Little Treasure, bring them over." Qiao Sang instructed, showing no intention of letting them die.

"Xun Xun~"

Little Treasure responded, maintaining his shadow control ability while hos eyes glowed blue, locking onto Candice and her beast.

In the next second, the two appeared on Yabao’s back.

One more to go… Qiao Sang glanced at the unconscious woman and Howling Swallow before turning toward the man not far away, whom Moonlam was still protecting.

At this moment, Moonlam’s barrier had changed from a single wall to a fully enclosed six-sided shield, providing absolute defense for itself and its beast master.

Yet within that shield, the dark shadow remained firmly wrapped around Dick.

It was unclear whether the barrier simply had no effect on the dark shadow or if the binding had already taken hold beforehand, making further shielding useless.

Qiao Sang’s habit of analyzing situations from months of study made her pause briefly in thought, but she quickly refocused on the present situation.

According to the pet identifier system, Moonlam could only exert its full power at night. Right now, in daylight, as a psychic-type beast, its defense relied solely on its energy. Yabao’s Meteor Rain was an ultimate-tier skill, surely it wouldn’t hold out for long…

Boom, boom, boom…

The falling fire rained down on the barrier, exploding in bursts of flame. The shield cracked with each impact.

Yet, just as it neared collapse, Moonlam's body glowed blue, and the barrier rapidly reformed, returning to its pristine state.

Fire rained down. The barrier was broken and mended again.

This cycle repeated for over ten seconds, until the shield finally shattered completely.

"Block for me!" Dick roared.

But there was no need for his command. The moment the shield broke, Moonlam teleported instantly, clutching its beast master tightly and shielding him from the still-falling flames.

At a high level of proficiency, teleportation could take anything in direct contact along. However, Dick’s limbs were still bound by shadows, tethered tightly to that unknown ghost-type beast.

Under these circumstances, a careless teleportation could result in being torn apart, he couldn’t take that risk.

Veins bulged on Dick’s face as he struggled to break free.

He even tried using his teeth, but no matter how hard he bit, the shadow bindings remained unyielding.

What now? What can I do? His mind raced.

That ghost-type beast had clearly used spatial movement earlier, yet its shadow bind remained intact.

Was it executing two high-tier skills simultaneously?

That was utterly absurd!

What was his next move?

He could tell Moonlam wouldn’t last much longer.

If he didn’t escape soon, he’d end up like that damn Candice…

Yet he had no way to summon another beast.

His opponents had four beasts with her, while his only one was still enduring damage…

Then, an idea struck him. He turned toward the girl, his gaze turning sinister.

There was still one option…

Dick remained silent but subtly raised his bound hands, brushing them against Moonlam twice.

This was their secret signal.

His line of work wasn’t exactly honorable, having life-saving measures was a given.

Giving orders in battle often alerted the enemy in advance. Only a surprise attack could end things quickly.

Two taps signified a direct assault, on the beast master.

The beast master was the key to everything.

If Moonlam struck the girl while still standing, it was just her bad luck.

And if it failed, at least her four beasts would be forced to shift their focus.

As long as that nameless ghost-type beast stopped its shadow bind, he could drop down, summon Moonlam back, or even call forth his ace beast…

"Yue La—"

Boom! Fire exploded on Moonlam's body, but despite the searing pain, it sensed its beast master’s intent.

It struggled to raise its head, its glowing blue eyes locking onto the distant girl.

A crescent-shaped blue energy blade materialized above Qiao Sang’s head.
