Kou Chang, whose mood was extremely gloomy, instantly brightened up with a beaming smile when she heard this.

"Brother Tianyu, is what you said true?"

Lei Tianyu responded with confidence. "Junior Sister Kou, don't worry. This time, I won't disappoint you. I will definitely get a Foundation Establishment Pill from my uncle for you."

Kou Chang's delicate brows furrowed with worry. "But Master Jun is leading the righteous army to besiege the Corpse Demon Sect. The position of the family head is temporarily managed by your uncle. Your uncle isn't Master Jun. Will he agree to give such a precious Foundation Establishment Pill to an outsider like me?"

Lei Tianyu spoke with assurance. "My uncle treats me very well and sees me as his own. Although the Foundation Establishment Pill is valuable, if I personally ask my uncle, I have a good chance of getting it."

"Moreover, although my uncle is only at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, he is very capable in managing the family affairs and handles the Lei family very well."

"He has always placed great importance on the good relationship between the Lei family and the Beastmaster Sect."

"If Junior Sister doesn't mind, after you establish your foundation, we could become Dao companions. It would strengthen the bond between the Beastmaster Sect and the Lei family."

"I believe my uncle would be pleased."

A trace of hesitation flashed in Kou Chang's eyes. Lei Tianyu had gone around in circles just to say one thing: marriage!

She wanted to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill from Lei Tianyu, and she might even be willing to offer her own blood for it.

But becoming Dao companions with Lei Tianyu was something she needed to think carefully about.

Although Lei Tianyu was the heir of the Lei family and the future family head, no one could predict the future. What if he failed to advance to Core Formation and couldn't become the family head?

Kou Chang's thoughts churned, and after a few moments of contemplation, she made a decision.

First, she would find a way to get the Foundation Establishment Pill, and as for becoming Dao companions with Lei Tianyu, she would deal with that when the time came.

Kou Chang's delicate face turned crimson. With a voice as soft as a whisper, she said shyly, "Brother Tianyu, are you proposing to me?"

Lei Tianyu's face lit up with anticipation. "Junior Sister Kou, do you agree?"

Kou Chang lowered her head, her slender fingers nervously playing with the hem of her clothes, and said softly, "I need to ask my master about this."

Lei Tianyu's expression was one of barely contained excitement. "You're right, Junior Sister. You should ask Master."

Kou Chang, with a pure and innocent look in her eyes, asked, "Senior Lei, when will you be able to give me the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

Lei Tianyu seemed impatient to become Dao companions with Kou Chang. He said, "Junior Sister, come with me to the Lei family tomorrow. You can meet my uncle and ask him for the Foundation Establishment Pill. It's also a good opportunity for you to meet my family."

Kou Chang's face stiffened; she didn't want to go to the Lei family. "Is it really necessary to meet the family so soon?"

Lei Tianyu said, "Junior Sister, with your beauty and grace, my uncle will definitely approve of our union. It will also make it easier to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill."

Kou Chang hesitated for a moment but, unable to resist the temptation of the Foundation Establishment Pill, agreed softly, "Alright, I'll go along with what Brother Tianyu said."

Lei Tianyu's face brightened with joy. He took out a fist-sized round stone that was entirely black, with intricate patterns and silver light flowing through the designs.

"This Thunder Pattern Stone will be the token for our engagement. I'll give it to you first."

Kou Chang took the Thunder Pattern Stone and said with a delicate voice, "Thank you, Brother Tianyu."

"I've never seen a spirit beast advance before. How about we feed the Thunder Pattern Stone to Azure Bull now so I can witness the breakthrough process?" Lei Tianyu suddenly suggested.

Kou Chang showed a reluctant expression and hesitated. "When a spirit beast is advancing, it goes through a brief period of dormancy, during which it falls into a deep sleep. I'm not comfortable with letting Azure Bull advance outside."

"Besides, without Azure Bull, I haven't established my foundation yet, so I can't fly. How will we get to the Lei family?"

Lei Tianyu reassured her, "Don't worry, Junior Sister. A few days ago, my uncle gifted me a small flying ship. Although it's not big, it's enough to carry the two of us and Azure Bull."

Kou Chang pondered deeply and didn't respond immediately.

Lei Tianyu continued, "I paid a high price for the Thunder Pattern Stone just to see the breakthrough process of Azure Bull. Please grant me this wish."

Holding the Thunder Pattern Stone in her hand, Kou Chang finally relented. "Alright."

Kou Chang tapped the spirit beast pill at her waist.

"Moo!"

The robust Azure Bull appeared in the room, making the already small space seem even more cramped.

Azure Bull rubbed its head against Kou Chang's waist, clearly very affectionate toward her.

Kou Chang stroked Azure Bull's head with one hand while holding the Thunder Pattern Stone near its mouth with the other.

Seeing the Thunder Pattern Stone, Azure Bull eagerly swallowed it.

Moments later, the silver light flowing under Azure Bull's skin began to shine brightly, and the speed of the light flow increased.

"Whoosh!"

Azure Bull exhaled a puff of turbid air, which manifested as an electric current. The current struck a wooden chair in the room, instantly turning it into splinters.

Seeing the unconscious destruction caused by Azure Bull, Kou Chang felt a bit helpless.

"This really isn't a good place for Azure Bull to advance," Kou Chang thought to herself.

"It was too reckless to feed the Thunder Pattern Stone to Azure Bull outside the sect."

Lei Tianyu, however, had a gleam of excitement and greed in his eyes.

"Don't worry, Junior Sister Kou. The auction is about to end, and it's no longer meaningful to stay here. Let's leave now."

Kou Chang nodded. "Alright!"

The two of them, along with Azure Bull, left the room. Outside the room was a long corridor.

After a few steps, they encountered a female cultivator with an ordinary appearance walking out from a nearby room.

The female cultivator's gaze swept over Kou Chang's stunning beauty and graceful figure, and a flash of jealousy crossed her face.

She stood at the door for a moment, and when Kou Chang and Lei Tianyu approached, she spoke.

"Little Sister, I didn't expect you to come to the auction as well."

Kou Chang looked at the female cultivator with unabashed hatred. This cultivator was Gan Yue, the one who had just bought the last Foundation Establishment Pill, and her fifth senior sister.

"Gan Yue, you've already established your foundation for some time. Why did you still have to compete with me for the last Foundation Establishment Pill?"

Kou Chang and Gan Yue's discord was well-known within the Beastmaster Sect. She didn't bother to be polite and directly questioned her.

Gan Yue raised an eyebrow and smiled smugly. "I was just wondering who the wretched person was who competed with me for the last Foundation Establishment Pill and drove up the price. Turns out it was you, Little Sister."

With a flip of her hand, Gan Yue produced an exquisite jade bottle and continued, "This Foundation Establishment Pill is for my family. People like me, born into a cultivating family, have been supported by the family since childhood. Now that I've made some progress in my cultivation, it's only natural to give back to the family."

"Unlike you, who come from a mundane background, with no attachments, acting heartlessly and selfishly."
