I was terrified! Raising a colossal star beast in the Beast Taming World

Chapter 154 Safe~

In the lounge of Lanzhiyuan, the air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the screen, surrounding Xue Youyou, and no one spoke.

On the screen, the instant Meng Yanqing unleashed her Return to Sheath technique, apart from Xue Youyou who remained calm, almost everyone else wore expressions of shock. This shock wasn't merely superficial surprise, but rather an overwhelming disbelief welling up from the depths of their hearts.

Among them, Lin Yueyao and Lu Yuan were the most shocked.

"She...she actually used the Return to Sheath technique!"

Lin Yueyao blurted out, her voice filled with barely suppressed tremor.

These words almost instinctively spilled from her throat, before she could even control them.

She has always been firmly in control of Meng Yanqing, and her superior strength has made her accustomed to looking down on her.

But when this scene actually appeared before her eyes, she suddenly realized that the figure she had once left behind had silently passed her.

For Lin Yueyao, who has always been proud, the feeling of being overtaken was indescribable. It was as if something had gently twisted her heart, leaving her with an indescribable feeling.

As for the deer kite...

Xue Youyou suddenly felt a weight on her shoulder, and her gaze instinctively shifted to the left.

Lu Yuan, who was sitting next to her, had somehow leaned against her, pressing down on her with half her weight without reservation. The posture was so intimate that only lovers or family members would do that.

Xue Youyou could even clearly feel that Lu Yuan's entire body was limp, as if her bones had been removed, leaving her completely unsupported.

She was still facing the screen, her eyes still open, but they had long since lost focus, empty as if her soul had left her body.

Is he really just too happy...?

Seeing the abundance of talented individuals emerging from his academy, he was so overjoyed that he reached a state of blissful disorientation.

In stark contrast to Fan Jin's frenzied celebration upon passing the imperial examination, this was a calm born of extreme repression. It was a silence that appeared almost wooden after a great joy had completely overwhelmed the person.

Xue Youyou felt that she had completely understood Lu Yuan's heart at this moment.

Hagi deer, what a pitiful creature.

Xue Youyou gently patted Lu Yuan's head, as if soothing a small animal.

Then, without any mercy, she pushed Lu Yuan to the other side of the sofa like a puppet on a string.

Don't get close to older women... it's really annoying.

As she thought this to herself, she casually brushed the dust off her shoulders, as if trying to sweep away the close contact she had just experienced.

At this moment, Ning Xiaoman finally couldn't help but ask the question that everyone present was thinking: "Chief... did you teach her to return to her sheath?"

Those present were not ordinary spectators; they had all witnessed Xue Youyou's return-to-sheath technique.

That training match against the Burning Heaven Academy was the first time in their lives they had witnessed such a beautiful and perfect sheath-returning technique.

Even now, when I think back to that scene, it still lingers in my mind, often appearing involuntarily in the dead of night, and I can never forget it.

Although it's hard to believe that Xue Youyou would so easily pass on such a precious skill to someone else, there seems to be no other explanation for now.

Xue Youyou spoke calmly, as if she were talking about something trivial: "Pretty much. She cried and begged me to teach her, so I did."

Upon hearing this, everyone present couldn't hide their envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Ning Xiaoman widened her beautiful eyes, asking with a mixture of resentment and expectation, "Chief, is it too late for me to cry now?"

Xue Youyou glanced at her sideways, then casually uttered two words: "Too late."

"Waaaaah—woohoo!"

Ning Xiaoman immediately started wailing in response, and her feigned crying posture was quite similar to Meng Yanqing's, making people unable to help but laugh.

Everyone chuckled at her appearance, and even Xue Youyou's eyes showed a faint smile.

It must be said that Ning Xiaoman's performance did capture some of the essence of Meng Yanqing.

Watching my teammates fight from the perspective of an incompetent wife in the lounge, and chatting casually with these senior female students from the second team whom I'm not particularly close to, is quite interesting.

Of course, Lu Yuan is still offline.

Just then, Shen Yanqiu's shrill voice suddenly rang out, finally pulling Lu Yuan's wandering soul back a little: "Ugh—this is bad! Meng Yanqing seems to be at a disadvantage!"

One sentence instantly brought everyone back to their senses, and they all stared intently at the screen.

Unexpectedly, in just a few short words of conversation, the situation in the battle took a sharp turn for the worse.

Meng Yanqing suffered a major loss in her battle with Yan Ji Lin Feiyan; two of the seven swords formed from the Thousand Leaf Immortal-Slaying Lotus shattered in the blink of an eye. The scene on the screen suddenly darkened the previously cheerful atmosphere in the lounge, shrouding it in solemnity once more.

Shen Yanqiu couldn't help but worry: "Why... do I feel like Meng Yanqing can't beat Yan Ji?"

Lu Yuan's eyes gradually regained their sparkle, and she seemed to come back to life.

That's right! Even if Meng Yanqing has also learned to return to her sheath, she has only just mastered it. Compared to a seasoned veteran like Lin Feiyan, how easy is it for her to catch up?

She really lost her composure; she couldn't even think of such a simple principle.

Moreover... Lin Feiyan's Crimson Flame Spear is also blessed with a legendary secret technique, so logically and emotionally, it is absolutely impossible for her to lose to Meng Yanqing!

In the blink of an eye, Lu Yuan's once lifeless heart was revived.

She saw hope.

In other words, the current situation is very clear: even if Meng Yanqing uses her trump card, she is still no match for Lin Feiyan.

What kind of nonsense is this about observing the stars at night... It's just a scare tactic, isn't it?!

Lu Yuan secretly glanced at Xue Youyou, whose expression remained calm and unfathomable, and silently cheered herself up.

In any case, facts always speak louder than words.

Ha, she absolutely did not believe that Meng Yanqing could turn the tide under these circumstances.

That's right... this level of sheathing is, at best, barely keeping up with Lin Feiyan's level last year. There's absolutely nothing to be afraid of!

She, Lu Yuan... is safe!
