Chapter 2187: Chapter 1911: Taming (Part 2)
At this moment, Lang Gu’s wounds ruptured, and blood flowed out.
"Father, give up."
Lang Xiaoran looked worried and walked towards Lang Gu.
Lang Gu shook his head slightly, signaling Lang Xiaoran to step aside.
He had his own plans; to truly restore the might of the Wolf Spirit Clan, he must awaken the power of Gu Feng. Otherwise, even if he sat on the position of the Alliance Hierarch of the five clans, others wouldn’t truly respect him.
At this moment, in front of the Tiger, Leopard, Bear, and Insect Beast Spirit Clans, giving up would be utterly humiliating.
The position of the Alliance Hierarch, he wouldn’t have the face to occupy it.
"Hah!"
Lang Gu shouted and made up his mind, mobilizing all his True Qi, allowing only success, and not failure.
Suddenly, the True Qi mark in his palm expanded, pressing down towards Gu Feng’s head, almost touching the fur.
The released strands of True Qi, as if injected with adrenaline, madly impacted Gu Feng’s body.
An invisible wave of air was generated, as if a defensive layer had been breached.
The dispersed True Qi entered Gu Feng’s body, condensing into a line, connecting with the True Qi mark in Lang Gu’s palm.
"Connection succeeded!"
Instantly, the Wolf Spirit Clan members were overjoyed.
But in the next moment.
Bang!
A powerful and unmatched pressure emanated from Gu Feng’s body, the connection shattered with a roar, and Lang Gu was sent flying seven or eight meters before he stabilized himself, pressing his chest, spewing out a mouthful of blood.
Lang Gu failed to forge the Beast Spirit Contract with Gu Feng, and instead made a fool of himself, covered in blood and looking very embarrassed.
In front of the Tiger, Leopard, Bear, and Insect Beast Spirit Clans, he, the Alliance Hierarch, truly lost face.
The entire scene fell into silence, no one spoke.
For at this moment, no matter what was said, it seemed like an insult to Lang Gu.
After a long silence, finally someone spoke.
Bao Wei said, "Alliance Hierarch, Gu Feng is powerful, I’m afraid no one in the entire Beast Spirit Clan can forge a contract with him. Don’t be discouraged."
"Yes, everyone knows, back in the day, Gu Feng was a Foundation Establishment Beast; it’s not that easy to forge a contract."
"Alliance Hierarch, you were injured just now. Once you fully recover, try again. I’m sure you can do it."
"Come, let’s drink."
Bao Wei, Xiong Jian, Hu Guang, and Chong Jiang all comforted Lang Gu with good intentions, trying to change the topic.
However, the flicker of scorn in their eyes could not be completely hidden.
Lang Gu’s strength, among them, was indeed the weakest.
In the eyes of Xiong Jian and others, the fact that he became the Alliance Hierarch of the five clans was entirely due to Song Yun’s credit.
Even if they obeyed the Alliance Hierarch’s orders, it was to give Song Yun face.
"Alas!"
Hearing the comfort of Bao Wei and the others, Lang Gu secretly sighed, feeling quite uneasy inside.
He was an ambitious man, who wanted to lead the Wolf Spirit Clan to the pinnacle with his own strength, as the Clan Leader.
Even though Song Yun was his son-in-law, relying on him made him uncomfortable.
"Awoo, awoo!"
Gu Feng, unable to awaken its power, showed a dejected look in its eyes, letting out two low howls, rubbing its head against Lang Gu’s shoulder.
"I’m sorry, Gu Feng, I couldn’t make you awaken."
Lang Gu sighed and said softly to Gu Feng.
He forced himself to remain calm, squeezed out a smile, and said to everyone, "Come, let’s drink."
Everyone knew he was trying to shift the focus, so no one mentioned it again, raising their glasses one after another.
"Wait."
Just as Lang Gu was about to walk back to his seat, Song Yun suddenly stood up and stopped him.
Everyone, looking puzzled, turned to Song Yun.
With a smile on his face, Song Yun said to Lang Gu, "Father-in-law, why don’t you try again? Perhaps this time you can successfully forge the Beast Spirit Contract."
Try again
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.
They pretended nothing happened, but how could this future son-in-law come out and embarrass his father-in-law like this? It’s too indiscreet.
Lang Gu’s mouth twitched involuntarily; he had already been injured the first time, and attempting it a second time would truly be overestimating himself.
Although Song Yun is strong, he is ultimately young; saying such things now is essentially setting a trap for me, causing me embarrassment.
Seeing Song Yun’s smiling face, Lang Gu felt a bit displeased inside.
However, considering Song Yun’s formidable strength, he didn’t lose his temper, just forced a smile and said to Song Yun: "Song Yun, perhaps let’s drop this matter."
Lang Xiaoran didn’t know what Song Yun was up to, glanced at him and helped Lang Gu out of the predicament, saying: "Father is already seriously injured, even if there is a next time, it can only be after he recovers."
"Yes, yes, Hierarch, let’s drink first."
"Brother Song Yun, quickly offer your father-in-law a toast."
Bao Wei and Xiong Jian also stepped in to support Lang Gu, while inwardly feeling a bit schadenfreude—Lang Gu might have found a good son-in-law, but it seems the son-in-law lacks tact.
"No rush for drinking, my father-in-law should be taming Gu Feng and forming a Beast Spirit Contract today. We can celebrate with drinks once the contract is formed and Gu Feng awakens."
Just when everyone thought the matter had ended, Song Yun dropped another bombshell.
To everyone’s ears, this sounded like he was ridiculing Lang Gu.
Everyone could clearly see Lang Gu had been repelled by Gu Feng and couldn’t possibly form the Beast Spirit Contract. Not twice, not a hundred times.
If Song Yun’s first remark was reckless, the second was intentionally humiliating Lang Gu.
Does this son-in-law even want to marry Lang Xiaoran?
Suddenly, the entire atmosphere turned awkward.
Even Xiong Jian and Chong Jiang, who initially enjoyed the spectacle, began to feel sympathy for Lang Gu—though the son-in-law is powerful, his mind seems a bit off.
"Song Yun, stop talking and sit down."
Lang Xiaoran pulled Song Yun, huffing in anger, not understanding why he was acting foolishly, urging her father to attempt the impossible.
"Don’t worry, Father-in-law will definitely succeed."
Song Yun turned back and smiled at Lang Xiaoran, winking confidently, indicating she should be at ease.
Lang Xiaoran frowned, thinking the contract being formed isn’t by you, what’s the point of being confident?
You tell me to be at ease, but how can I?
Lang Xiaoran held onto Song Yun’s hand, unwilling to let go, and asked, "What on earth are you planning?"
"Trust me, I absolutely won’t let my father-in-law be humiliated; I’m here to help him and the entire Wolf Spirit Clan."
Song Yun looked at Lang Xiaoran with a gentle smile hanging on his face.
Upon hearing his words, everyone rolled their eyes, thinking: you say you won’t embarrass Lang Gu, yet you’ve twice already.
"Could he really have a solution?"
Lang Xiaoran paused for a moment, releasing her grip, as Song Yun walked toward Lang Gu.
She snapped back to reality, panicking inwardly: "How foolish am I, Song Yun is an outsider; no matter his strength, he doesn’t know how to tame exotic beasts. Where would the solution come from?"
While Lang Xiaoran was fretting, Song Yun had already reached Lang Gu’s side.
Lang Gu’s expression looked grim, staring at Song Yun with anger bubbling inside.
Though not as strong as Song Yun, he had a tough personality and couldn’t tolerate such humiliation from his son-in-law.
Yet, looking at Song Yun’s sincere smile, he couldn’t unleash his pent-up anger.
Song Yun stepped forward and said: "Father-in-law, let me whisper something to you."
Whisper?
Lang Gu was taken aback, frowning: "Song Yun, whatever needs saying shouldn’t be hidden; why whisper."
Song Yun raised an eyebrow, smiled mysteriously: "Hehe, it’s a secret; naturally, others can’t know."
Hesitating for a moment, Lang Gu nodded and turned an ear.
"Father-in-law, listen closely, this is the Beast Taming Technique."
Song Yun got closer, speaking in the lowest voice, meticulously detailing the Demon Taming Technique from the Immortal Demon Daoist Scripture to Lang Gu.
Initially, Lang Gu thought Song Yun was joking.
But as Song Yun continued, Lang Gu’s expression turned serious.
As the Wolf Spirit Clan Leader, Lang Gu had some insight, and he immediately realized the technique’s immense power, far superior to what the Wolf Spirit Clan possessed.
Seeing Lang Gu’s serious demeanor, everyone grew curious.
Yet, Song Yun’s voice was too low, amplified by True Qi directly into Lang Gu’s ears, making it inaudible for others.
