Upon hearing the call, Liu Buli immediately became energized, rushing towards You Siqi with the utmost speed.
While he didn't particularly like the protagonist of that novel, he was still a devoted fan. He knew the protagonist possessed divine beast bloodlines and recalled the descriptions of how majestic and powerful the protagonist was during transformations.
However, since the protagonist could usually solve problems without transforming, seeing him in his divine beast form was a rare sight, something that happened perhaps once in many years.
Naturally, such excitement was not to be missed!
Liu Buli was incredibly thrilled, so much so that he failed to notice the deeply resentful and displeased gaze Lu Wuming cast upon him as he ran past.
*It's just a transformation, what's so strange about that?*
His master's eyes were practically sparkling. He saw it clearly, and it was infuriating!
Lu Wuming clenched his fists.
Although he didn't quite understand what transformation meant, in that instant, he began to seriously consider if there was any way he could change himself.
He didn't aim to become better, only to be able to capture more of his master's attention the next time Shen Muzhi did something like this!
Lu Wuming plotted in secret.
But since he didn't know how Shen Muzhi was going to transform, and with the idea of thoroughly understanding his opponent, he gritted his teeth and followed Liu Buli.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, You Siqi excitedly patted Shen Muzhi. He said, "You can transform now!"
Shen Muzhi smiled with a sense of helplessness.
He felt like one of those monkeys being led on a leash in the street, performing tricks for an audience. As soon as the monkey trainer gave the command, he had to obediently showcase his skills.
To be honest, the feeling was a bit strange.
But the one "training" him, the monkey, was his lover whom he had pursued for so long and had just finally won over. Fulfilling a small request of his lover was no big deal.
Perhaps if he performed well, he might even earn a beautiful smile in return?
Shen Muzhi thought to himself.
He found this thought rather embarrassing.
But what could he do? He was the one who fell in love first, and he was the one who wanted to be with this person. As long as he was by You Siqi's side, it didn't matter what You Siqi wanted to do; who told him he was happy to indulge him?
His thoughts paused here. Shen Muzhi took a few deep breaths and began to circulate the spiritual energy within him.
The spiritual energy flowed, and a faint blue light enveloped him completely.
Until he was entirely replaced by the light, rendering him invisible, a beastly roar echoed from within the luminescence. The sound was peculiar, like a cat's meow, but much deeper than an ordinary feline's cry. Perhaps due to its immense size, it carried a hint of a lion's roar.
Liu Buli, like You Siqi, had a sparkle in his eyes, practically on the verge of a delighted shriek.
Yun Xiang, who had also followed, didn't have as much context. She had simply never witnessed such a scene before and felt a mixture of curiosity and fear.
Only Lu Wuming stood by with a scowl.
He had no interest in what Shen Muzhi was doing.
He didn't even spare a glance in that direction; his eyes were solely on Liu Buli.
*Master's eyes were actually shining for that guy. Master was actually so excited about another man. Master was looking at someone else even with me by his side...*
Shen Muzhi was truly detestable!
Lu Wuming admitted that he was jealous, he was envious. He envied that Shen Muzhi could steal Liu Buli's attention, even for a moment, which was enough to make him uncomfortable.
He knew his possessiveness towards Liu Buli had reached a frenzied level, but he had no intention of changing. He felt it was perfectly fine. Since his master also liked it, they should maintain it; there was no problem with that.
So, speaking of which, he really needed to learn how to transform.
With this thought, Lu Wuming finally deigned to shift his gaze to Shen Muzhi.
He chose his timing well. By then, the light surrounding Shen Muzhi had completely dissipated. The human form was nowhere to be seen, replaced by a colossal creature, as tall as a two-story building...
A cat?
Lu Wuming's expression faltered.
He no longer felt jealous when he saw the even brighter gleam in Liu Buli's eyes.
How could he be jealous of *this*?
The species had changed; even if he tried his best, he couldn't possibly achieve it!
