Chapter 1040 Greed Is Not Enough (1)
Although aspiring to charm beautiful girls all around the world was a grand ambition, Xue tuanzi dared not to utter these words in front of Mo Yan. It was well-known that the master of Space had a considerable influence on the Transform of an Artifact Spirit; if the master wished the Artifact Spirit to Transform into a female form, the Artifact Spirit would inevitably assume the appearance desired by the master during the Transforming process.
Originally, when Xue tuanzi told Mo Yan about the great uncertainty regarding the gender of its Transform, it was actually being sly, not daring to reveal the truth to Mo Yan who wholeheartedly hoped it would Transform into a female. Otherwise, upon Transforming, it would definitely be cut off from becoming male, which was absolutely unacceptable.
Mo Yan, who had never been deceived by Xue tuanzi, never guessed that it would play tricks on her. Although they usually understood each other’s intentions, if Xue tuanzi deliberately kept its thoughts from her, the master, she would find it difficult to perceive its true feelings.
Seeing that Xue tuanzi remained silent, Mo Yan assumed it was reluctant to speak and did not say anything more. As four hours were about to pass and dawn was near, she put away her needlework, prepared to wash up in the Space, and then go to bed.
But at that moment, the Golden Beast sleeping in the outer room suddenly let out a low growl. Without waiting for Mo Yan to come out, it dashed into the courtyard at a swift pace, leaped over the more than a yard high wall, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The next instant, a piercing scream came from beyond the wall, slicing through the peaceful night sky, sounding particularly chilling. Anxiety surged in Mo Yan’s heart as she hurried into the courtyard with the five creatures following her, only to see the Golden Beast had already jumped back in, still carrying a man—a man whose life or death was unknown—in its mouth.
Upon seeing Mo Yan, Golden Beast opened its jaws wide and dropped the man on the ground. Seeing that the person was facedown, it growled and flipped the person over.
