Chapter 570: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 570: Subjugation (1)
The moment Mo Yan appeared behind the golden beast, it immediately sensed her presence. With a swift motion, it turned around, its golden eyes glaring at her menacingly. Despite its severe injuries and heavy bleeding, the beast moved with remarkable agility.
Confronted by those piercing golden eyes, Mo Yan felt a chill run through her body. She was frozen, her hand gripping the bucket handle turning white from tension, ready to retreat into the space at any moment.
The golden beast stood still, intently staring at Mo Yan… and the wooden bucket she was holding. Its feline-like nose twitched slightly, and its crimson tongue unconsciously extended to lick its furry lips. The sight of its greedy demeanor surprisingly made it appear less menacing.
Noticing its subtle reactions, Mo Yan's tension eased slightly. She carefully placed the bucket on the ground and slowly stepped back, ensuring that she was far enough away to retreat into the space before the golden beast could attack her. She then spoke gently to the wary beast, “This is spirit spring water. It will strengthen you and help with your injuries. If you trust me, please drink it.”
It was unclear if the golden beast understood her words. It continued to gaze at Mo Yan without moving, letting out a low, suppressed growl that sounded somewhat like a lion’s roar, though its appearance was far from that of a lion. Its eyes, nose, and ears resembled those of a tiger, its body somewhat like a wild buffalo, and its tail, large and fluffy, resembled that of a fox. In short, its appearance was quite peculiar.
Mo Yan recognized that this was not a beast she had ever encountered or knew of. Admiring its restraint, she took out the packet of three-seven powder, opened it, and let the strong medicinal scent waft through the air. “This is medicine for wounds, it can stop the bleeding and heal your injuries. If you’re willing, I can apply it for you.”
The golden beast’s fluffy, round ears twitched, and its nose flared more vigorously, yet it did not move forward.
Mo Yan remained calm. Holding the opened packet of medicine, she continued to address the golden beast directly, regardless of whether it understood her words. “The spirit spring water and medicine are an apology. I hope you can forgive the previous actions of those people. The person you injured is my father. They had no ill intentions towards you. If you accept these items, it means you’re willing to reconcile and won’t come down the mountain to trouble us. Is that acceptable?”

The golden beast remained still, observing her without any sign of anger or other reactions. Just as Mo Yan began to doubt whether it understood her, the beast finally stepped forward, moving to the bucket and lowering its head to drink the spirit spring water.
A large portion of the water was quickly consumed, but before it could finish, the bucket handle got stuck, preventing any more water from coming out. Annoyed, the beast extended a paw, which was twice the size of an adult’s hand, and began to furiously dig at the ground, creating a pit about a foot deep.
Mo Yan watched in horror as the beast’s sharp and hard claws easily dug through the solid mountain terrain. If not for the earlier distraction caused by the crowd and Han Zhiyun’s presence, the number of injuries could have been much higher!
Determined to resolve the conflict, Mo Yan knew that if the beast held a grudge and sought revenge after healing, it could pose a significant threat to Liuyang Village.
Seeing the pit grow deeper, Mo Yan cautiously moved forward a step. Noticing that the golden beast merely glanced at her without any further reaction, she retrieved a wooden basin from her space, filled it with spirit spring water, and stepped back, signaling for the golden beast to continue drinking.
