Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 782 Taming The Holy Beast (Part Two)

Harper kept throwing the pills into her mouth. Whenever she picked a pill, popped it into her mouth and munched it, the beast followed her action, then flung its head against the barrier and opened its mouth as if it hoped that the pills would be thrown into its mouth.

Harper was rather amused by this gesture. Out of curiosity, Harper wrapped the pill with her spiritual energy and flung it out of the barrier. The beast chased after the pill and swallowed it in one gulp. When it came back to the barrier, there was a remarkable change in its demeanor. Its attacking and intimidating stance had given way to a rather subdued attitude. It sat obediently like a huge dog, stretching out its mouth and waiting for its master to feed it again.

The sudden change in the beast's reaction piqued Harper's interest. She wrapped the pills with her spiritual energy and threw them out of the barrier one by one, teasing the beast. Yet, the beast cooperated perfectly to take the pills. A few moments passed like that and both of them seemed to have started enjoying the game. Howard, Diana, and the rest of the guards were all petrified at what they saw.

"That's the ferocious beast!" Diana mumbled with her eyes wide open in amazement. "How can someone tease it like that?!"

Even the guards were left baffled. Was this the same heinous beast that would engulf any human within its reach? No, it couldn't be called a beast at all. Its behaviors made it look more like a dog. To be more precise, it was like a silly dog that was being confused and teased by Harper!

Looking at the beast who was devouring the pills joyfully, Harper recalled the stories she had read in the library. Remembering an old trick, she cut her finger, coated the pill with her blood, and threw it outside the barrier. The beast swallowed it without hesitation!

However, nothing unusual happened to the beast. Harper wondered if it was because there was too little blood on the pill. Hence, she went on to make several such pills dipped in her blood and threw

them out. The beasts ate them all and kept burping.

"All allusions are deceptive!" Harper said, shaking her head from side to side. She then touched her wound with her spiritual power. Slowly, the blood coming out of the wound disappeared and the cut in her finger healed. Right at that moment, something strange happened. Several purple lights appeared on the beast's forehead. At the same time, Harper felt a sharp burning pain coming from the back of her waist. Then all of a sudden, she felt as if a force had been injected into her body. If it were not for the spiritual power inside her body running automatically to guide this force, she would probably have exploded!

The people hiding in the distance could only see the dazzling purple light. Slowly, when the purple light dissipated completely, there was no trace of the fierce beast. And Harper was lying on the ground unconscious.

"Harper!" Howard called out in horror and rushed towards his sister. But he could not reach Harper. He clashed with a purple light and got flung into the air. It took him a few moments to get back on his feet. After that, he looked closely to see that Harper had fainted, and there was a little purple beast standing beside her, with two legs, two palms akimbo, as if it was roaring something to him.

"What's this?" asked Diana. She and the guards were left confused. "Where is the giant beast?" They looked all around to find the ferocious beast but all their eyes could see was a small purple beast standing by Harper's side, posing to be her guard.

The little beast fiercely glared at them, and then sat on the ground. It was funny to see its obsession with Harper. It wouldn't allow anyone to approach her. If anyone approached, it would immediately shot fire towards them. The fire was exceptionally strange as its color was purple!

Almost two hours passed like that until Harper woke up on her own. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw a little beast staring at her brother and the others. Harper picked the little beast up quickly.

The beast was still angry with Howard and the others. As it was picked up, it turned its head with displeasure. Yet, when it saw Harper was holding it, it burst into laughter and stretched its paws, as if it wanted a hug.

"Where did this come from?" Harper asked as she carried the beast and dangled it in front of her companions. Her companions were left bewildered. Their eyes were filled with questions. They looked at the strange beast and wondered, 'Don't you know where it comes from?'

"Harper, there was a wave of purple light that broke out all of a sudden. When the light dissipated, the ferocious giant beast was nowhere to be seen. Then you passed out and this little beast was by your side. It did not allow anyone of us to get close to you." Howard gave a brief account of what he had seen, expecting to get a more comprehensive explanation from Harper.

Even Harper seemed to be at a loss for a moment. She rubbed her head, and suddenly remembered something. Then she took the beast in front of her and said, "Are you that ferocious beast?"

Strangely, the little beast kept nodding its head. It even licked its mouth greedily as if wanting to be fed with more pills. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Harper loosened the grip of the beast. Consequently, it dropped on the ground. Yet, it was very agile, bounced onto Harper's shoulder and rubbed against her neck! Its arrogant look made Howard rather irritated. In fact, he resisted the urge to give it a good beating.

The corner of his mouth twitched as he felt that this little beast was just like Harper's husband, Matthew, trying to make a declaration of his ownership of Harper. Strangely, even the beast's expression was similar to Matthew's.

After rubbing Harper's neck for a while, the beast found that Harper didn't give it any pills. Then it poked at Harper with its paw. Looking at the eagerness in its eyes, Harper smiled and threw out a pill.

The beast leaped to catch it and then jumped back to her shoulder.

The remaining stretch of the swamp felt like a joyful stroll for them. Harper remained busy having fun with the beast. Diana watched them playing and was tempted to play with the beast as well. She asked, "Harper, would you mind if I borrow it and have some fun?"

Looking at the little beast on her shoulder, Harper said, "She wants to play with you. Go, play with her."

The little beast seemed to understand Harper's words and looked at Diana from the corner of its eyes. Diana stretched out her hand with a smile, waiting for the little beast to jump on her arms. But to her surprise, the little beast snorted with its nostrils and turned its butt to Diana. It seemed that it despised her.

Diana was petrified to be treated like that by a small beast. She was the princess of the South Kingdom after all! What the hell was wrong with this world? First, Harper bullied her. And now, even the little beast picked by Harper was bullying her!
