Was it planning to eat her?!
Just as she was thinking this, she saw the lion bend its front paws and kneel down. "Thank you for saving me and helping me advance to become a Sacred Beast. From now on, I will follow you, master."
"Huh? Master?" Yue'er was stunned and said, "I already have a contract beast."
"I know. Master's true contract beast is an ancient Sacred Beast. However, master, my combat strength is very strong. I can protect you. In this forest, there aren't many Sacred Beasts. With me by your side, you won't encounter any danger."
In truth, what was even more important was that she could provide the medicinal pills needed for its advancement, and with an ancient Sacred Beast as her contract beast, it knew that this human girl before it must be of extraordinary origin. Following her would bring only benefits, no drawbacks.
