A few seconds later, an almost imperceptible spiritual wind appeared out of nowhere. Yin Yue did not detect that wisp of wind; she merely felt the surging anomalies within her body slowly recede, and the terrifying dark aura swiftly withdrew back into the depths of her soul, as if it had never appeared.
Only her face was deathly pale, with fine cold sweat seeping from her brow, and her amber eyes were filled with lingering fear and solemnity.
Receded…
But…
How could that be!?
There was actually an Abyss anchor…
It had even been reborn together with her.
Intuition told her that if she continued to speak of matters concerning the Abyss, it would surely attract the Abyss’s gaze.
“Master…”
Yin Yue raised her eyes to look at Luo Ning, her tone solemn. “I cannot say more. If I continue to touch upon that forbidden existence, It might turn Its gaze here…”
Luo Ning was completely stunned.
The terrifying aura from that instant, Yin Yue’s abnormal loss of composure…
It was clearly not the work of the Primordial Blood Seed she had mentioned earlier.
It was probably another, even more powerful and terrifying existence.
If going by the classic plots of the various web novels from her previous life…
That terrifying aura was probably related to Yin Yue’s rebirth.
Luo Ning clenched her palms, jumbled thoughts surging.
It seemed things had already far exceeded her imagination.
She had said all along that the World of Beast Taming was dangerous!
She just wanted to lie flat and live out this life…
“I… roughly understand.” After a long while, Luo Ning spoke, but her tone had gained several degrees of caution. “Regarding that forbidden topic… no, even regarding matters of the future, Yin Yue, don’t mention them for now.”
“But will that power harm you?”
“In the short term… it shouldn’t be a problem,” Yin Yue said softly.
Yin Yue understood that this was likely a marking anchor left by the future It.
All powerful beings born from the Abyss possess such marking anchors.
Countless in number…
It uses the powerful beings it releases to travel through the boundless universe, devouring various Stellar Civilizations and crushing the Myriad Races and Deities.
But generally speaking, the Abyss, as a Cosmic Catastrophe, does not pay attention to the ant-like beings in the universe.
It disdains to destroy barren star regions, weak races, and lowly lifeforms.
The prey the Abyss targets has always been only one kind—a thriving, powerful civilization strong enough to shake the universe, a powerful star region…
Logically speaking, this anchor lurking inside her, who is currently only at the Transcendent Grade, is nothing more than a faint glimmer in cosmic dust to the vast and boundless Abyss.
Small, ordinary, insignificant.
But this mark came along with her rebirth…
Before rebirth…
Although her realm was at the Overlord Level, adding her master’s Beast Taming talent and her companions’ assistance, overall she had top Legendary Level strength…
She could even unleash a strike comparable to the Mythical Level.
The only thing she wasn’t sure about was whether the Abyss would have different screening standards for her reborn self, or for the anchor mark from the future.
If it attracts the Abyss’s attention, will It descend using this anchor?
She couldn’t be sure, and didn’t dare to gamble.
Because her master and she were too weak now.
She lowered her eyes to look at her own palm, her expression growing more determined. “However… this time I was reborn for our future, and also to resolve this matter.”
If in the previous life, they had known in advance that the Cosmic Catastrophe called the Abyss was actually a Super God Level lifeform, and taken precautions, they wouldn’t have been so passive…
Luo Ning took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing the worries in her heart.
Combined with Yin Yue’s explanation, she roughly understood the course of events.
A being called the Primordial Blood Seed had set its sights on her Beast Taming talent, wanting to possess her…
However, it seemed to be under some restriction, or perhaps afraid of damaging her body, so it didn’t forcibly possess her from the start, but instead chose to parasitize her body, using a slow-boiling frog method?
The future her had likely used that unspeakable forbidden existence to resist the Primordial Blood Seed that wanted to possess her.
Since she had roughly figured out the general direction of things, there was no need to think too much about it for now.
The most important thing now is to go save Su Wanwan first!
Rewrite her future!
Combined with the fact that Yin Yue could follow her scent earlier, she should also be able to smell Su Wanwan’s!
Fortunately, Su Wanwan had the foresight to change her into her previous clothes…
‘Old Su! This time I won’t blame you for making me cross-dress!’
“Yin Yue, forget about everything else for now. Smell the scent of Lao Su on me; these clothes are hers… Let’s go save Lao Su first!”
Yin Yue suddenly realized that the woman’s scent she had smelled on her master earlier was Miss Su Wanwan’s!
Because in the previous life, before she met her master, Miss Su Wanwan had already met with misfortune, so she didn’t know Miss Su Wanwan’s scent.
Yin Yue quickly lowered her nose, her delicate wolf ears trembling slightly, and her keen sense of smell immediately spread out at full power.
“I smell it!”
Her amber eyes suddenly sharpened, and her tone dropped sharply. “I smell it! The aura is very fresh, not far away… but the situation is very bad!”
“Miss Su Wanwan’s aura… the surroundings are filled with the wild stench of many bloodthirsty lifeforms! She seems to be almost surrounded.”
As soon as these words fell, Luo Ning’s heart, which had just relaxed a little, immediately tightened again.
‘Oh my god! Lao Su! Please don’t be in trouble!’
“Yin Yue! Let’s go!”
“Mm!”
The situation was urgent, saving the person couldn’t be delayed, and Yin Yue didn’t hesitate at all.
A clear wolf howl softly sounded, and the wolf-eared girl’s body suddenly glowed with a layer of pure white moonlight halo, the air currents around her swirling slightly.
Her humanoid outline quickly faded, stretched, and elongated, bones and fur rapidly reshaping in the dim light.
In an instant, the wolf-eared girl’s figure completely faded away.
A Silver Moon Wolf with a vigorous posture and a body covered in flowing, lustrous white soft fur stood before Luo Ning.
Yin Yue slightly lowered her body, her front legs elegantly bending, her broad and steady back facing Luo Ning.
No words were needed; the action already explained everything.
Master, get on.
Luo Ning no longer hesitated. She quickly stepped forward, lightly held onto the fluffy and soft wolf neck, turned over neatly, and sat steadily on Yin Yue’s broad back.
The wolf fur was soft and warm, with a faint, clear moonlight fragrance, giving a sense of safety and stability.
The moment she was settled, Yin Yue let out a soft, obedient whimper. After confirming her master was secure, her long, powerful legs slightly gathered strength.
Hmm!!
A faint layer of silver moonlight protected the wolf’s body, and also covered and protected Luo Ning on her back.
“Yin Yue, I’m counting on you!” Luo Ning tightly grabbed a tuft of soft wolf fur and softly instructed.
Awoooo!!!
A clear, distant wolf howl pierced the silence of the mystic realm!
The next second, the Silver Moon Wolf pushed off the ground, its form turning into an extremely smooth silver-white moon shadow, darting out fiercely!

Time goes back…
Deep within the mystic realm, inside a vast, dark, and gloomy underground cave.
The damp, cold stone walls were covered in dark red veins, like dry bloodstains winding and interweaving. The entire space was filled with a thick bloody smell and ancient, eerie dark energy.
In the very center, an ancient altar built from bones and dark stones stood quietly.
Around the altar, dozens of tall, slender figures in black robes stood quietly.
The leading black-robed chief slowly raised his head, a hoarse, cold voice echoing in the empty cave.
“Heh heh, who would have thought that the ancient Blood Source Passage Secret Realm Anchor would be hidden beneath a small city’s Breeding Center?”
His eyes flickered with crimson vertical pupils, and his tone carried a hint of incredulous excitement and relief.
“It’s not in vain that we’ve searched for thousands of years…”
“The ritual, begin now, to welcome our Primordial Ancestor Lord’s return to the Blood Clan!”
“Yes, Duke!”
The black-robed figures present all bowed their heads and bent at the waist, their postures devout and frenzied. Then they began to chant obscure and ancient ritual texts from their mouths, voices overlapping, echoing within the empty cave, exuding a creepy feeling that chilled the bones.
“Oh? A Vampire Duke? They really think highly of our little place…”
And at this moment, in a corner of the cave, a man appeared without anyone knowing when.
He was tall and straight, wearing a sharply tailored suit that was unstained by any of the cave’s filthy dust, completely different from the eerie and sinister attire of the black-robed cultists.
His jet-black scattered hair fell casually, covering some of his brows and eyes, revealing only a sharply defined jawline, with a hint of careless, lazy helplessness at the corners of his mouth.
“No wonder the higher-ups told me to come back to my hometown. I thought they had approved my request to slack off, but it turns out this place has problems…”
The man scratched his messy hair and sighed slightly.
He lightly clicked his tongue, his tone growing more helpless, then raised his hand and clapped. The crisp sound of clapping rang out within the unending eerie chanting.
“Alright, alright, stop chanting. Give me some face, okay?”
The black-robed Duke’s crimson pupils contracted, keenly capturing that unfamiliar aura lingering in the corner.
His pressure as a Blood Clan Duke instantly spread out, his cold and sharp gaze locking onto the man’s direction.
“Legendary Beast Tamer? Li Changqing?”
