At this moment, the majority of the hostility between the Devil Soul Great White Sharks and the Evil Killer Whale Clan had ceased, and they looked at the Evil Tiger in astonishment.
"My God, why would our Clan Leader be so afraid of that human?"
"The Clan Leader is supposed to be an invincible being in this era!"
"Even the king of the Devil Soul Great White Sharks has been repeatedly defeated by our Clan Leader. So, what's happening now? Our Clan Leader is unbeatable!"
"Could it be that this human is stronger than our Clan Leader?"
The Evil Killer Whales were restless, a sense of ominous foreboding filling their hearts. To them, the killer whale king was a god; in their eyes, he was the Overlord of the Seas.
Yet now, their supposed Overlord of the Seas was showing such a terrified expression.
Why would their Clan Leader fear such a human youth? They were utterly baffled.
The strong amongst the Devil Soul Great White Sharks were also stunned. At the same time, they breathed a sigh of relief; armed conflict with the Evil Killer Whale Clan had put them under pressure constantly. They had already lost clan members in a short span of time, but now they had a chance to catch their breath again.
And they felt a vague sense of anticipation. They hoped that the strong individual Bai Xiuxiu had brought back this time could defeat the Evil Tiger!
That way, the crisis facing the Devil Soul Great White Shark clan would be lifted.
Previously, when they saw Bai Xiuxiu calling Xu Ran Master, they were somewhat irritated. They thought, what gave a human kid the right to be the master of their Princess? Their Princess, after all, was the beauty of the Devil Soul Great White Shark clan.
Such a beautiful being serving as someone else's mount was highly displeasing to them.
However, witnessing Xu Ran's strength seemingly intimidating even the killer whale king, the Evil Tiger, their dissatisfaction with Xu Ran had vanished. Now, their hearts were filled with intense excitement and admiration.
They hoped that Xu Ran really could defeat the Evil Tiger, and then they would not have to die.
This clan war, where the Evil Killer Whale Clan had come fully prepared, could deal an unprecedented blow to their own clan if they were defeated, possibly even leading to their disappearance.
How could they accept that?
The Devil Soul Great White Sharks were giants in the Deep Sea; they absolutely could not just vanish from the annals of history.
At this point, all eyes were on Xu Ran, filled with excitement but also with loathing and panic.
"Xu Ran is indeed so powerful," whispered Bai Xiuxiu, looking at Xu Ran's handsome figure. Her soft voice seemed laden with a maiden's feelings.
Bai Xiuxiu's emotions were complicated at the moment, yet since she had not Transformed and maintained the form of a Devil Soul Great White Shark, no one could see anything unusual. Otherwise, one would see Bai Xiuxiu with her legs tightly crossed, whispering Xu Ran's name with tenderness like water.
In Bai Xiuxiu's eyes, Xu Ran stood there, his stature tall and straight, as if he were the single man defending a pass that ten thousand could not breach.
With Xu Ran standing there alone, no threats seemed significant.
The Demonic had been effortlessly slain by Xu Ran, and now, even the killer whale king, the Evil Tiger, showed a look of terror upon seeing Xu Ran.
"Are you really that Supreme Soul Beast?"
Bai Xiuxiu's heart trembled rapidly.
The title Supreme Soul Beast carried an immensely heavy weight.
Now she was more convinced than ever that Xu Ran was one of those two powerful beings. Perhaps Xu Ran was the Supreme Soul Beast, the one standing at the pinnacle of all soul beasts, an unrivaled existence unparalleled throughout the ages. Bai Xiuxiu's thoughts were chaotic, especially when she remembered that she was now the mount of Xu Ran, which made her feel even more embarrassed.
From now on, she would often have to let Xu Ran ride her.
As a mount, this was her duty.
Yet, it still sounded incredibly shy.
Especially for a powerful person like Xu Ran, did he have the ability to make her Transform earlier? What would happen when she Transformed? Would she still be Xu Ran's mount then?
It was a rule within the Devil Soul Great White Shark clan that once Transformed, one could no longer serve as another's mount. But she hadn't mentioned this rule to Xu Ran when she became his mount, so he could surely renounce it.
Back then, she was being chased by Demonic forces, looking forward to Xu Ran's rescue.
At that time, she had no courage to negotiate terms with Xu Ran. When he said he wanted her to be his mount, she agreed without thinking and didn't propose any other conditions.
Normally, when a Devil Soul Great White Shark becomes a mount, they make it clear that they will not become anyone else's mount after a hundred thousand years.
"So strong, truly worthy of that entity, this aura, so terrifying!"
Little White murmured, her face flushed with excitement and admiration written all over her face.
Admiring strength and the powerful is ingrained in the genes of soul beasts.
All soul beasts admire the strong, and moreover, Little White knew that Xu Ran was that kind of peerless Supreme Soul Beast. In the face of such a being, everyone should bow in utmost respect.
"Xiuxiu, how did you become the mount of that being?" Little White approached Bai Xiuxiu and asked her gently. She was excited and relieved that Xiuxiu could be the mount of such a powerful being and considered it a blessing for the Devil Soul Great White Shark clan.
After all, Xiuxiu's future was secured.
Bai Xiuxiu recounted everything honestly, and Little White's pretty face showed a slight change in color, her cheeks also tinted with a blush.
"Are you saying that Lord Xu Ran mentioned he still needs a mount?" Little White asked with a hint of peculiarity in her eyes, her porcelain cheeks reddening. She was not like Bai Xiuxiu; she understood much more.
"Yes. Our Devil Soul Great White Shark clan has many members, and Xu Ran can choose freely. Moreover, being chosen would be a great fortune for the selected clan member," Bai Xiuxiu said earnestly, her innocence showing her lack of cunning.
"So you just agreed right away?" Little White's heart skipped a beat, her thoughts complex.
"Because of the clan crisis, I made the decision directly," Bai Xiuxiu explained.
"Oh," Little White responded, her heart beating fiercely, but she said no more.
Xu Ran already had an outstanding girl like Xiuxiu, and he was still choosing. In such a situation, how could there be a second choice that wasn't as good as the first one?
Although the Devil Soul Great White Shark clan was numerous, it seemed there were none more outstanding than Xiuxiu...
To be forced to choose another... could it be...
"Could it be... Lord Xu Ran wants to choose me?" Little White pondered silently, looking at Xu Ran's handsome appearance, her heart pounding wildly. Her intuition told her it was the case.
But if that were true, wouldn't she and Xiuxiu...
Moreover, she had already Transformed; wasn't that somewhat inappropriate? Was that 'ride' really just the ride of a mount?
"As long as it saves our clan, whatever the circumstances, I can accept it. Besides, he is a Supreme Soul Beast..." Little White crossed her slender legs, watching Xu Ran, and began her self-consolation. No soul beast could resist Xu Ran's power.
In The Soul Beast Realm, as long as you are powerful, everyone yearns for you, respects you, even adores you. Soul beasts don't have as complex emotions as humans; if you are powerful, you can earn their love.
