“Heh, Silver Moon Wolf, this bottle of potion is worth ten million. Consider yourself lucky.”
Clang!
A bottle filled with a verdant green potion was tossed into the cage.
The potion bottle was sturdy, rolling a few times on the ground without breaking.
Inside the specially made cage was a female Silver Moon Wolf covered in silver-white fur.
This Silver Moon Wolf was not particularly large, but her body was slender and lithe.
Her wolf ears and tail drooped weakly, and her amber eyes seemed veiled with fatigue.
The Silver Moon Wolf looked at her surroundings, her eyes filled with daze and confusion. Wait, this was…
Right! Master!
Her amber pupils constricted sharply as bad memories surged forward.
That cosmic disaster called the Abyss…
It was actually a living entity!!
Her master, in their final moments, to save them…
Was devoured by the Abyss that descended without warning!
The Silver Moon Wolf panicked. She felt her heart being squeezed tightly by an invisible hand.
But in an instant, her entire body stiffened.
She remembered being gravely wounded in the Abyss calamity, her consciousness fading. But how was she now in this cage?
Feeling her power inexplicably draining away, yet her awareness sharpening, and seeing this familiar scene…
The Silver Moon Wolf’s heart clenched hard.
She… had been reborn?!?
“Hehe, I’m pleased with that reaction. Since you saved me, I’ll give you a chance: drink this Contract-Dissolving Potion and voluntarily dissolve the contract.”
“As for the future, hehe~ I’ll find you a good home. After all, your bloodline rank is still High Monarch Level. Even if you’re now a cripple whose strength can’t improve, there will definitely be plenty of people who like you.”
“Just behave yourself and be a good pet dog from now on.”
The Silver Moon Wolf heard a voice she found extremely unpleasant, pulling her drifting thoughts back. It was one of the voices she had hated the most in her past life.
The Silver Moon Wolf slowly raised her eyes, subconsciously furrowing her brow as she looked outside the cage.
Wang Siya. Her nominal first Beast Tamer.
The young woman had exquisite makeup, but her face wore an undisguised, contemptuous smile as she looked down at the bedraggled Silver Moon Wolf in the cage. Her eyes were filled with blatant disgust and disdain.
No one knew better than the Silver Moon Wolf why she had ended up in this state.
It was because Wang Siya, arrogant and overconfident, ignored all warnings and barged into a C-Rank Secret Realm with her followers.
Although her bloodline rank could reach High Monarch Level, she had not fully matured yet. Her growth stage was only at the Medium Transcendent Level.
But within that C-Rank Secret Realm, there existed beings stronger than Transcendent Level—Commander Level.
And as expected, they encountered them. Two Commander Level Scale-armored Heavy Lizards blocked their path. Their immense, iron-scaled bodies locked down the entire area.
Wang Siya’s followers lacked combat power. Before they could dodge, both they and their beasts were savagely killed by the Heavy Lizards’ gaping jaws.
The Silver Moon Wolf, however, forcibly unleashed the full potential of her Monarch bloodline. At the cost of burning her life force and scorching her bloodline, she barely managed to gravely wound one of the Heavy Lizards. Dragging her nearly shattered body, she protected the terrified Wang Siya and escaped the Secret Realm.
That battle completely ruined her.
Deep wounds pierced through flesh and muscle, crippling her bloodline’s foundation and core.
Her growth level plummeted from Medium Transcendent to Medium Awakening Level.
At first, while she was receiving treatment, Wang Siya would offer a few fake reassurances, maintaining the facade of a caring master.
But as time passed, once Wang Siya learned that her realm was permanently locked and could never advance, gratitude was corroded by greed and vanity.
A life-saving debt became worthless in the face of absolute power and profit.
Wang Siya grew annoyed, then disgusted, and finally completely cold.
Now, looking at the lonely, pathetic Silver Moon Wolf in the cage from outside, Wang Siya felt not a shred of guilt.
“Don’t worry. I’ve already found a more powerful Overlord Bloodline cub in the Black Market.”
“It will replace you.”
“Drink the potion. Voluntarily dissolve the contract. Free up a contract slot for me, and I’ll let you leave with some dignity. I’ll find you a suitable new Beast Tamer. Sell you for a good price.”
The Silver Moon Wolf ignored Wang Siya’s words. In her eyes, Wang Siya was already a dead woman.
In her past life, she had been sold off like an item by Wang Siya, wallowing in despair and passed from hand to hand, until a twist of fate led her to meet that truly gentle master—the one who treated her like family, who saw her as their only bond.
Now, her only thought was to find a way out of here, find her master, and get stronger as fast as possible, so that the tragedy of the future would never repeat.
As for Wang Siya, from what she knew, she would die horribly in a Beast Tide triggered by an Overlord Level beast.
The root cause? The Overlord bloodline beast cub Wang Siya bought in the Black Market.
One day, the cub’s parents would come looking for it with a terrifying Beast Tide, only to find their child had been cruelly abused by Wang Siya. Enraged, they would lead the Beast Tide in an all-out war against Wang Siya and her Wang Family’s city…
The Silver Moon Wolf recalled her past life. Her master had taken her back to her clan, only to find the Silver Moon Wolf Clan had been wiped out…
Later, following the clues, they discovered this was also the Wang Family’s doing. Her heart grew even more bitter. She had been contracted to an enemy for so long…
If she could, she wouldn’t mind accelerating the outbreak of that Beast Tide…
After all, the pair of Overlord beasts…
She probably knew where they lived…
The Silver Moon Wolf slowly raised her head. Her limp wolf ears perked up for the first time.
Her long-dimmed amber eyes locked onto Wang Siya outside the cage with a cold, piercing gaze.
Wang Siya, who had been smugly pressuring her to dissolve the contract, suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
Her entire body stiffened. A chilling dread crept up her spine.
Wang Siya’s heart trembled violently. Her feet felt inexplicably weak, and she instinctively took half a step back.
“You…!!!”
The Silver Moon Wolf remembered that in her past life, this potion had been forced down her throat…
But this time…
The Silver Moon Wolf clamped down on the potion bottle and bit down hard.
The bottle shattered.
Sharp shards instantly cut the inside of her mouth.
Crimson blood slowly seeped from the wounds, mixing with the green Contract-Dissolving Potion on her tongue.
Agonizing pain flooded her entire mouth, but the Silver Moon Wolf didn’t even blink.
The green potion rushed down her throat, immediately spreading through every contract channel in her body.
Hum!!
The colorless, formless Contract Array flickered faintly between her and Wang Siya, then gradually shattered.
The Silver Moon Wolf endured the searing pain in her mouth, her amber eyes filled with nothing but absolute coldness and resolve.
“You useless piece of trash! How dare you look at me with that expression?!”
Wang Siya was startled by the icy stare, instinctively raising her voice to cover her fear.
But no matter how she yelled, the Silver Moon Wolf in the cage remained completely still.
She just quietly stared back, her amber vertical pupils cold and indifferent as they watched the flustered and humiliated Wang Siya.
