The driver didn't dare to disobey Chen Yue's order. Moreover, having been frightened for no reason and thinking about the scene just now when his heart almost jumped out of his chest, the honest driver also became angry.

  The place where they were staying now was very close to the Free Capital. As the most prosperous city in the Tianye Empire, a large number of people flew to other cities or flew to the Free Capital from other cities on flying beasts every day. So the probability of encountering strangers was very high.

  However, people who would easily make provocative acts like this were... rare.

  Everyone knew the risks involved in high-altitude flight. What did they want to do? Kill people?

  Scum!

  Both Chen Yue and the driver gave this two-word comment in their hearts.

  In hindsight, the attack just now wasn't fatal. Judging from the fact that there was no follow-up attack, the other party didn't mean to kill. However, this kind of behavior showed from beginning to end a disregard for human life.

  It seemed that the other party was showing off their superb driving skills. They dived down from a high altitude and suddenly rose up when they got very close, just like playing an extreme game, blatantly showing off their might.

  People like this reminded Chen Yue of those so-called car racers in his previous life who ignored the safety of others and played extreme maneuvers like sudden stops on crowded streets to show off their excellent driving skills. It made people want to slap them in the face.

  After chasing for a while, instead of the distance getting shorter, it became farther and farther. Originally, they could still see three black dots, but now, even the traces were almost disappearing.

  "Sir, this won't work if we continue like this." The driver peeked at Chen Yue, whose face was expressionless, and said uneasily, "Their flying beasts are eagles specially used for transporting people and competitions. Ours..." He pointed to the wide back of the flying beast. "Ours is a camel-like flying beast specially used for carrying large quantities of goods. So..."

  There were different varieties of flying beasts. The flying beast that Chen Yue and the others were riding on was called the "flying camel". Its size was several times larger than that of the "flying eagle" that had provoked them. Its advantage was its high load-bearing capacity, but when it came to speed, it was far inferior.

  It was just like the difference between a Ferrari and a large truck.

  If the flying camel were to perform those flashy and dangerous maneuvers like the flying eagle did just now, the only result would be crashing into a mess.

  Chen Yue frowned deeply, looking a bit reluctant. Should he just let it go like this?

  Just as he was hesitating, he felt a looseness in his arms. The frozen rabbit struggled and jumped down, climbed to a raised part on the neck of the flying beast and then stopped, turning its head and chirping at Chen Yue a few times.

  That raised part was the most sensitive part of the flying beast. The driver controlled the flight by some simple actions like light or heavy patting.

  "Do you mean you want me to control it?" Looking at the strange behavior of the frozen rabbit, Chen Yue asked uncertainly. Originally, he didn't expect the frozen rabbit to be able to answer, but unexpectedly, the frozen rabbit nodded.

  The driver beside him almost popped his eyes out, his mouth wide open enough to fit a whole fist in.

  A flash of inspiration came to Chen Yue's mind and he understood. Whether it was the 主动打开 life halo in the morning or the reminder now, it all proved that the familiar spirit had wisdom. He had been in a fixed mindset. The familiar spirit was a high-level creature from the spirit world, and its wisdom might not be inferior to that of humans.

  The operation movements were simple, nothing more than differences in the parts to be patted and the speed, lightness, heaviness, urgency, and slowness. Soon, Chen Yue knew all of them by heart.

  Gently placing his palm on the raised part and concentrating his mind completely, Chen Yue immediately felt a strange emotion coming through his palm, which was raw and unfamiliar.

  At the same time, the flying beast let out a strange cry.

  The driver's face instantly became very strange. He knew that this meant the flying beast was in an abnormally excited emotional state. In this state, the flying beast's attitude towards accepting and executing commands was much more positive than usual. This only happened between those extremely experienced drivers and flying beasts with a very high degree of compatibility.

  However, this young man had achieved it so easily...

  Gently moving his palm, Chen Yue clearly felt that the sense of strangeness in the flying beast's emotions disappeared completely, replaced by intimacy and familiarity. It felt as if he had merged with the flying beast and could easily control the flying beast to move forward, backward, accelerate, and so on, as natural and easy as turning his palm.

  Feeling this rare experience, a thought-provoking smile appeared on the corner of Chen Yue's mouth.

  Stolen story; please report.

  Domestication - one of the basic abilities of apostles. However, it was probably also the most useless ability.

  Due to long-term companionship with familiar spirits, apostles carried the aura of high-level creatures and could easily communicate with magical beasts.

  It was a rather useless ability. The objects that could be domesticated were only limited to low-level magical beasts. But with powerful familiar spirits, which apostle would bother to think about this ability?

  However, in some situations, it had to be admitted that the ability of domestication was very useful. For example, right now.

  Watching the flying beast become full of energy under Chen Yue's command as if it were a different bird, the driver pinched himself hard several times. After confirming that he wasn't dreaming, he said with a complicated mood, "Sir, although the speed has increased a bit now, it still can't catch up with the flying eagle."

  This was an essential difference. It didn't mean that being able to make the flying beast exert its full strength could make it catch up.

  Flying beasts didn't fly at a fixed speed all the time. In fact, the maximum speed that the flying camel could reach was not inferior to that of the flying eagle. The difference lay in the time that it could maintain the high speed. The huge size of the flying camel brought a greater burden. Once it flew at the maximum speed for a long time, the heat inside its body would rise and it would burn itself to death in a few minutes. So it had to slow down to dissipate the accumulated heat, but the flying eagle could maintain the maximum speed for a quarter of an hour.

  After saying that, the driver looked at Chen Yue expectantly, hoping that this young man, who seemed to be able to do anything in his eyes, could create a miracle.

  Suddenly, it became quiet inside the protective shield, and only the sound of the wind caused by the high-speed flight could be heard.

  Chen Yue fell into deep thought. Burn itself to death. Indeed, after he urged the flying camel to its top speed, he could really feel the pain as if his whole body was on fire, as if it were happening to himself.

  Wait...

  A flash of inspiration came to Chen Yue's mind and his eyes fell on the frozen rabbit beside him.

  He clearly remembered that when he was practicing the seventh pose and was in an out-of-body state, that situation could be said to be extremely dangerous and was no less threatening than self-immolation. However, it was the frozen rabbit that automatically opened the life halo and saved him at that time.

  Relying on domestication, he could almost form a unity in feeling with the flying beast. Then, could the life halo play a role?

  Thinking of this, Chen Yue immediately became excited.

  Without hesitation, Chen Yue opened the life halo of the frozen rabbit, dyeing the fur of the flying beast ice-blue. Then, under Chen Yue's control, the flying beast quickly reached its maximum speed.

  After integrating his perception with the flying beast, Chen Yue immediately felt streams of heat dissipating from every cell in his body. The temperature soared at an extremely fast speed.

  The speed at which the heat emerged could only be described as a gush.

  His whole body seemed to be on fire.

  Just when Chen Yue felt that he could hardly bear it, suddenly, a bit of warmth fell on his skin, slowly flowing through his muscles, blood vessels, and invading every cell, swallowing up the constantly rising heat.

  From Chen Yue's perspective, he could see that as the two life halos rotated in opposite directions, countless green light spots invisible to ordinary people were scattered out, falling on the surface of the flying beast and disappearing into its body.

  As more and more warm currents entered and swallowed up a large amount of newly generated heat, a balance was gradually reached. Although the temperature was still rising continuously, the speed was much slower. According to this progress, the flying beast could maintain its maximum speed for about a quarter of an hour, which was no less than that of the flying eagle.

  However, Chen Yue wasn't satisfied with this.

  The frozen rabbit, which had been lying prone and fully activating the life halo, suddenly stood up. Its small three-petal mouth wriggled for a while and spat out clusters of cold air. Not long after leaving its mouth, they exploded. Before long, the inside of the protective shield was filled with tiny ice crystals everywhere, refracting the sunlight, and colorful lights were shining, making people wonder if it was a dream.

  Frozen Breath, the only ability of the first-order frozen rabbit. It could adjust the power of its breath. Freezing Gamor outside Qiya City was the maximum output of the Frozen Breath.

  After spitting out dozens of clusters of cold air, the frozen rabbit exhausted its magic power and lay down lazily.

  The ice crystals everywhere in the air absorbed heat on a large scale and completely stabilized the temperature inside the flying beast so that it no longer increased.

  If this balance could be maintained, the flying beast could fly at its maximum speed all the time. However, obviously, the amounts of ice crystals and green light spots were limited.

  "Let's go." As soon as the words were spoken, the flying beast let out a cry that rang through the sky and, like a bolt of lightning, instantly streaked across the sky.
