Beast Taming Star Journey
Chapter 168 Seeking an Alliance to Resist Conflict
Sunset City, located on the edge of the Crimson Desert, is renowned for its abundant fire-attribute spirit stones. It is also the territory of the Boron Beast Tamers. These tamers are famous for their powerful fire-attribute beast taming and upright character, making them among the elite of high-level beast tamers.
Finding him and persuading him to cooperate with us will be key to turning the tide. The journey to Sunset City will not be peaceful.
Along the way, we encountered several harassments from lithium forces. They seemed to have anticipated that we would seek allies, so they laid ambushes in advance in an attempt to stop us.
Fortunately, Su Yao was very strong and managed to turn danger into safety every time. The long sword in her hand was as agile as a swimming dragon, and each swing carried a sharp sword aura, forcing the enemy back.
"It seems the lithium forces are determined to stop us," Su Yao said, cautiously observing her surroundings. I nodded, my expression grave. "They're afraid we'll find allies and strengthen our power." After several days of travel, we finally arrived in Sunset City.
The city, just like its name, was bathed in the glow of the setting sun, appearing exceptionally magnificent. Finding the Beastmaster's residence was not difficult.
Almost every resident of Sunset City knows this respected high-ranking beast tamer.
The residence of the Beast Tamer was a simple courtyard filled with various exotic flowers and plants, emitting a faint fragrance.
As we approached the door, we heard a hearty laugh. "Haha, what a distinguished guest! I apologize for not greeting you sooner!" A burly, resolute-faced middle-aged man emerged from the house.
He was dressed in simple cloth clothes, with a fiery red jade pendant hanging from his waist, and he exuded a powerful aura.
"Are you the Beast Tamer?" I stepped forward and asked respectfully.
“It is indeed me.” The Boron Beast Tamer nodded with a smile. “You two have come from afar. May I ask what brings you here?” I took a deep breath and told the Boron Beast Tamer about our purpose, the current situation, and our grievances with the Lithium forces without reservation.
I frankly admitted that we were not strong enough and needed his help. I emphasized that this was not simply a personal grudge, but rather a matter concerning the peace and stability of the entire Beast Taming world.
The Beastmaster listened quietly, his expression gradually becoming serious. He frowned occasionally and nodded at times, clearly considering my words carefully.
“I’ve heard about the ambitions of the lithium forces for a long time,” the boron beastmaster said in a deep voice. “They are disrupting order and destroying the balance, and someone should indeed stand up to stop them.”
My heart was in my throat, and I held my breath, waiting for his final decision. "Nong Yu, I admire your courage and determination." The Boron Beastmaster looked at me, his eyes full of admiration. "I am willing to cooperate with you to fight against the lithium forces!" Hearing this, the weight that had been hanging over my heart finally lifted.
The addition of the Boron Beastmaster will undoubtedly greatly increase our strength and give us a better chance of defeating the Lithium forces. "Thank you, Senior Boron!" I said excitedly.
Su Yao also smiled with relief. "Don't be too happy yet." The Boron Beast Tamer's expression turned serious. "The Lithium forces are cunning and treacherous, we must be careful..." He paused, his gaze turning to the window as if he had seen something. "Speak of the devil..." Just as the Boron Beast Tamer finished speaking, a shrill voice came from outside the courtyard: "Boron Beast Tamer, you should think carefully. Cooperating with this kid of unknown origin is a great risk!" I looked in the direction of the voice and saw a thin man with a weasel-like face standing at the courtyard gate.
Several menacing-looking followers followed behind him. "Beryllium Strategist!" Su Yao recognized him immediately, her tone tinged with disgust. My heart sank; he was indeed from the Lithium faction.
This beryllium strategist is the chief strategist of the lithium faction. He is cunning, treacherous, and most skilled at sowing discord.
"Betrayal Strategist, what do you mean by this?" Boron Beastmaster's face darkened, his tone displeased.
"Beast Tamer, I'm only here to give you a friendly reminder," the Beryllium strategist said sarcastically. "This kid's name is Nong Yu. He was just an unknown nobody before, but somehow he managed to get close to the Valkyrie Su Yao. He's probably getting close to you for some other reason!"
"You're talking nonsense!" I retorted angrily. "Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, you know it in your heart."
The strategist sneered, "What qualifications do you, a nobody, have to cooperate with the Beast Tamer of Boron? You just want to use the Beast Tamer's reputation and strength to achieve your own goals!"
The strategist's words were like a sharp thorn, piercing my heart. I never imagined he would resort to such despicable means to sow discord between us.
“I believe in Nong Yu,” Su Yao said firmly, standing beside me. “He is an upright and kind person and would never do such a thing.”
Su Yao's trust warmed my heart. In this world full of suspicion and doubt, her support is more important than anything else.
I gripped Su Yao's hand tightly, feeling the warmth of her palm, and my heart filled with strength. The Beast Tamer looked at us, a complex expression flashing in his eyes.
He paused for a moment, then slowly said, "I trust my judgment." The strategist's face immediately turned ugly.
He hadn't expected that the Boron Beast Tamer wouldn't be swayed by his words. "Boron Beast Tamer, you'll regret this!" the Beryllium strategist said viciously before turning and leaving.
"Senior, do you really believe in me?" I looked at the Beast Tamer, still feeling a little uneasy.
“I trust my eyes,” the Beast Tamer said. “I’m never wrong when I judge people.” The Beast Tamer’s words put my mind at ease.
For the next few days, Su Yao and I stayed in Sunset City to discuss strategies with the Boron Beastmaster to counter the Lithium forces.
During this time, my relationship with Su Yao deepened. We went through thick and thin together, faced challenges together, and our trust and reliance on each other became even stronger.
Whenever I feel tired and frustrated, Su Yao always stays by my side, giving me encouragement and support.
Her gentleness and thoughtfulness were like a ray of sunshine, illuminating my heart. And I cherished Su Yao even more, and became even more determined to protect and safeguard her.
However, the good times didn't last long. One evening, I was resting in my room when I suddenly heard a rapid knocking on the door.
I opened the door and saw a resident of Sunset City standing there, looking flustered.
"Lord Nongyu, something terrible has happened!" the resident said breathlessly. "The rumors about the lithium forces have spread throughout Sunset City. Now everyone is saying..." Before he could finish speaking, I felt a tightness in my chest, and an ominous premonition surged into my heart.
I quickly pressed, "What are they saying?" The resident hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "They're all saying... you're a Beast Tamer using Boron..." My face instantly turned pale. I had to see the Beast Tamer of Boron...
