Chapter 0808 – Five Tails
Li Luo"s expression changed as soon as he noticed the sudden vibrations coming from the crimson bracelet on his wrist.
The last time the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf awakened was in the Xia Kingdom, where it extorted some Heavenly Dragon blood essence from him before going into its deep slumber. It had been silent all along for the past few months. Finally, it had begun to move.
After pondering for a moment, Li Luo closed his eyes tightly and his mental state focused upon the bracelet.
His surroundings started to blur like a mirage. The world s.p.a.ce was still dimly lit as usual, but he instantly felt an icy glare from a pair of ferocious, crimson eyes as soon as he entered.
Li Luo looked over immediately.
Deep in the world s.p.a.ce, there was an enormous wolf that measured over 100 meters. Its tails were slowly waving behind it through the air, eliciting roars of wind and thunder as it moved.
But wait, it was not three tails... but five now!
Li Luo was shocked at this sight. He stared intensely at the three strong and thick tails of the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf, but true enough, there were two thinner tails in addition to that.
“Did the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf evolve?! Is it now the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf?
“Did this mutation happen because it absorbed my Heavenly Dragon blood essence?”
He could clearly feel that the energy undulations coming from the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf were much stronger than before. Its thick fangs had also become much sharper.
An extremely terrifying sense of pressure swept across the air, making it hard for him to breathe normally.
His heart was beating faster and stronger now. “The Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf made a breakthrough... it"s now a great spirit beast comparable to a Duke!”
During its slumber this round, its progress was beyond imagination.
As Li Luo"s heart continued to be shaken by this evolution, the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf watched him with its ruthless eyes. It let out a low growl from between its sharp fangs that were dripping with saliva.
At the same time, it stood up and its shadow loomed over Li Luo completely. It was looking at him greedily as he appeared to him as food full of Heavenly Dragon blood essence.
Li Luo appeared quite calm before the aggressive and greedy wolf as he said with a smile, "Little Three, looks like you made a lot of progress. Have you finally managed to break free of your shackles and entered the Duke Stage? How is it? I didn"t lie to you, right? Following me wholeheartedly is much better than staying in that Umbra Cave."
The wolf locked onto Li Luo with its fiercely flashing eyes, and its pupils seemed to have changed. However, Li Luo could not tell what it was thinking. It seemed like the spirit beast’s intelligence had increased after its breakthrough.
Originally, the spirit beast wanted to use its newfound might to scare the little brat who had been controlling it. Alas, Li Luo was not afraid at all.
At this instant, the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf shook the chains around its four limbs and raised its right paw.
It was only at this instant that Li Luo realized that the chain holding its right paw was being torn apart.
He froze for a moment upon seeing that. The Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf was clearly overpowering the seals placed by Princ.i.p.al Pang.
Without a doubt, the sealing bracelet was starting to become powerless in containing it after it had broken into the Duke Stage.
The Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf was blatantly threatening him.
It wanted to change the relationship between them after this huge boost in power.
Nonetheless, Li Luo merely laughed coldly and crossed his arms as he stared back at the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf. "You want to negotiate terms with me after entering the Duke Stage? What wishful thinking," he coldly replied. Li Luo knew that he had to take a firm stance to ensure that no bad precedents would be set, or the wolf would get even greedier and harder to control in the future. If it chose to rebel during a critical moment, it could spell great trouble for him instead.
“Roar!”
The wolf was infuriated at his words, and it glared at him with murderous eyes.
"Don"t forget who helped you enter the Duke stage. Like I said before, as long as you follow me faithfully, the Duke Stage is just the beginning. Do you think things are the same as they were back at the Xia Kingdom? Do you know who I am now?" Li Luo asked. Without paying much attention to its ferocity, Li Luo told the wolf in a mocking tone, "We are now in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent, one of the inner divine continents. This place is the jurisdiction of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. Do you know who he is? He is my ancestor, a Heavenly Emperor! My grandpa, the Lineage Chief of the Dragon"s Fang Lineage, is also at the King Stage. He is much stronger than Princ.i.p.al Pang, the one who sealed you here. So, do you really think that the Duke Stage is all that? Do you want me to get dozens of Duke Stage experts to come and beat you up this very minute?" Li Luo continued as he crossed his arms. All of a sudden, he seemed to have become a living tyrant, one that brandished the reputation of his elders like an arrogant young master.
Hearing this, the eyes of the wolf flickered a little as it felt a little taken aback by these developments.
The inner divine continent? His ancestor was at the Heavenly Emperor Stage, and his grandfather was at the King Stage?
The heavenly wolf found it hard to believe his words. Although it had been trapped in the Umbra Cave in the past, it knew from the memories in its bloodline just how strong a Heavenly Emperor was. How could this little guy have gotten involved with all these strong people?
"Just use that little brain of yours to think about it. Why do you think I have the Heavenly Dragon"s energy in my blood essence?" Li Luo sneered back at it. Hearing this, the wolf finally settled down. It had managed to break the bloodline shackles and evolved five tails all thanks to the Heavenly Dragon"s energy in the blood essence.
There was no doubt that Li Luo was special. His bloodline was extraordinary.
Li Luo smiled lightly and continued, "I am now a Banner Leader in the Dragon"s Fang Lineage, with eight thousand banner members under me. Do you think things are still the same as a few months ago?
"Let me show you my men." Li Luo’s mental state retreated from the crimson bracelet. With that, he headed straight for the training ground.
The eight thousand banner members were training diligently at this time. Li Luo walked up onto the elevated platform, and with a light cough, every banner member quickly gathered and entered the state of Harmony. In a short while, an ocean of energy materialized in the sky above them.
In the sealing bracelet, the wolf could sense this energy that did not pale in comparison to its own. Finally, it fell silent at this shocking development.
It still found it unbelievable that this little human man that needed to borrow its power before had grown so much in just the short span of a few months.
Most importantly, the eight thousand banner members were proof enough that Li Luo was not lying to it.
Li Luo"s power and background at present were totally different compared to a few months ago.
It was too naive to think that it could change their relationship by threatening him with its Duke Stage power.
Understanding this, the wolf became a little depressed.
It had wanted to become the master originally.
At this moment, Li Luo entered the sealing bracelet with his mental state again. He found the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf lying down, no longer brandishing its murderous, fierce look, but showing an almost pleading smile instead.
“Roar.”
It growled in a low tone, this time in a more docile sense.
Li Luo was very satisfied with this. Did it really think it could ride all over him when it was merely a Duke?

"Little Three, just follow me faithfully in the future. I will keep you well fed for sure. The Duke Stage is nothing. We need to look further ahead, at the King Stage!" Li Luo had given it another warning while also tempting it with another nice carrot.
“Eat slowly, don"t choke on it.”
The Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf lied down as it watched Li Luo"s shadow disappear in the distance. It seemed like even reaching the Duke Stage would not allow it to break free from being his pet.
Forget it, it could only keep enduring it for now.
