Chapter 16: Ranga
Chapter 16: Ranga
The jet-black stallion stood up, making the air rustle around it as the leaves that had fallen on it dropped to the ground. It shook its head and looked at the two tiny humans who had dared to disturb its sleep.
Shen Yu tilted his head slightly and assessed the tall stallion once more. He nodded in satisfaction as he found the black horse to his liking. It was tall and majestic, perfectly suiting his needs.
The Black Stallion was also perfect because it had a wide back, which made it easy to carry the two of them.
Ying Yue, who was daydreaming, woke up from her daze, feeling the killing intent aimed towards her and Shen Yu. She was surprised to see a towering figure looking at them with its murderous eyes.
She quickly clenched her hands on her hidden daggers and got ready to fight the black horse. It was clearly showing hostility to them and would definitely attack, she had to fight it because she didn't want her Master to dirty his divine hands.
Well, she also wanted to show off a little to Shen Yu. She wanted to show how powerful and awesome she was and how reliable she was so he could let her handle all the things.
The black Stallion snorted as it stomped its front leg on the ground, breaking a few rocks just from its weight alone. It was giving a warning to the two humans to leave its area.
Shen Yu smiled, seeing the horse, and thought.
'It is kinda cute. He is trying so hard to look menacing but only coming off as cute. And what's with that little killing intent? I guess this is a herbivore. Hmm, even better.'
Seeing that Shen Yu was smiling, Ying Yue dropped her guard slightly as she guessed that Shen Yu had some purpose to come towards this black horse. Still, she was ready to intercept the black Stallion if something happened.

As it looked at the two humans still standing and not leaving, the black Stallion snorted once again and kicked the ground hard. The ground cracked under the immense force, sending the black Stallion flying at the two humans.
Its speed was incredibly fast, and it looked like it was flying rather than running. Even the knocking of its grooves came after it had already crossed that area.
With that terrifying speed, the black Stallion was upon the duo in a second as it put its head forward to headbutt them. It was huge, and along with the speed it was running, the black Stallion carried immense force. The headbutt would crack trees and rocks easily and would shatter even Cultivators' bones and flesh.
It expected the same to happen, but its body suddenly stopped, losing all of the momentum it had gained, and stood still on the ground. It was confused but soon found the reason for its halt.
Shen Yu saw the black Stallion running at him and easily caught its head when it was going to headbutt them. He smiled and rubbed its head and neck while thinking.
'You are a horse, not a goat. Why are you headbutting everyone, bruh? Well, with that huge body, everyone would piss in their pants if they saw something like this running towards them with the speed of a fucking train.'
"There, there. Calm down, we mean no harm."
As Shen Yu spoke, he also sent some of his Spirit force to the black Stallion's mind to calm it. It worked quickly as the horse's muscles lost tension and relaxed visibly. It pushed its head into Shen Yu's hands, asking for more pats.
Shen Yu chuckled and rubbed the black Stallion's neck while patting its head with the other hand. The jet-black furs of the stallion were addictive, and he was enjoying running his hand through them.
At the side, Ying Yue stood with a shocked expression on her face. But then that expression morphed into a look of pure envy. She bit her bottom lip and thought, looking at the black Stallion in anger.
'It should have been me. I deserve those pats.'
Her thoughts were quite different from what one would expect according to the situation but, well, she was Ying Yue.
Shen Yu smiled and turned towards Ying Yue while still rubbing the black Stallion's neck, who had turned completely docile and submissive.
"This boy is quite good, ain't he? I was thinking of taking him as our mount."
Of course, Shen Yu knew of the black Stallion's gender. It was quite hard not to notice the second tail between its legs. But there was no need to mention that part.
Ying Yue was surprised but nodded in understanding. Her guess was right; Shen Yu had found the black Stallion for a specific purpose, and that was to serve as his Mount.
'Damn! He'll get Master on top of him, I wish he would be on top of me.'
She blushed slightly, finding it odd how perverted she was becoming. She shook off those thoughts and looked at the black Stallion carefully this time.
She raised an eyebrow but then nodded as if she just discovered something common.
'It is an Early Tier 4 Spiritual Creature. Just what would you expect from Master? Even his mount is Tier 4.'
She smiled and approached the black Stallion. Normally, he would have been angered by letting a stranger, much less a human, touch it, but since he was now under Shen Yu's authority, he let Ying Yue get close and ruffle his furs.
In fact, the black Stallion was quite enjoying it. He didn't know what had happened, but he felt like Shen Yu was his ancestor and Master, whom he had to serve. Shen Yu was his God now, and it was his pleasure to serve him as his Mount.
Shen Yu smiled and patted the horse's back, saying.
"Alright, Ranga. Let's go to the town."
The black Stallion raised his head high in pride and neighed. He jumped, turned around, and gave a signal to Shen Yu to climb on his back.
