the other side.
The Great Sage, perched on Zhang Xuanchen's shoulder, asked in confusion:
"Xuan Chen, why did you let that guy go so easily?"
Although that strange thing is quite powerful, it's not difficult for us to kill it at a cost; it's just a waste of time.
At this time, the Great Sage's inherited memories had not been fully restored, so it was normal that he did not recognize the Fog-Faced Fang.
Zhang Xuanchen replied with a smile, "Because there's no need."
That guy didn't have anything good on him, and this is the Azure Nether Mountain Range. Having just caused such a commotion, he's bound to attract the attention of some powerful demonic beasts.
The longer we waste time with that guy, the more dangerous it becomes for us.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.
Be decisive in your actions; hesitation will lead to defeat.
Giving up some things to ensure your own safety is a sure-fire way to make money.
Great Sage, there is still much for you to learn.
Once you return to the Zhang family, you, Xiao Tao, and Xuan Jing will enter the family academy to study.
Over the years, my Zhang Family Academy has been constantly updated and adapted to the times. What we teach is not only how to identify spirits, cultivation methods, family history, rules, and values, but also how to protect oneself and make the right choices in certain situations.
After saying that, he looked at Luo Lingshuang and smiled:
"Ling Shuang, you can also let Sister Lian go and take a look; perhaps she'll find something unexpected."
"Okay, Sister Lian will go." Luo Lingshuang agreed decisively.
If she weren't a bit older, she would also like to go and see what was going on.
Time keeps passing.
Before we knew it, the sky began to lighten.
White mist swirled all around.
Dewdrops fell from the leaves to the ground, hitting the stones with a continuous dripping sound.
After traveling through the night, the three people and the monkey killed three demonic beasts and collected seven spiritual herbs before finally arriving at Thunder Tiger's lair.
Zhang Xuanchen released his divine sense to perceive the situation inside the cave.
A giant tiger, five or six meters long, with gray fur shimmering with blue-purple lightning patterns, was nestled in the weeds, nursing two tiger cubs that were just a month old.
In a cold corner of the cave, a hungry, emaciated white tiger cub with blue-purple stripes looked pleadingly at its mother.
It emitted a soft whimpering sound.
I pray to drink a sip of tiger milk.
Although it is a tiger, it is only a month old. In addition, due to insufficient nutrition, its body development is smaller than that of the other two tiger cubs, and it has no hunting ability at all.
However, in response to its request, the tigress merely bared her teeth and let out a low, warning growl.
His tiger-like eyes were filled with disgust, and even a hint of murderous intent appeared.
Seeing this, the mutated tiger cub could only stop pleading. Its two little tiger eyes were filled with grievance. It walked to a corner of the cave, curled up on the cold stone, and slowly closed its eyes.
Seeing this scene before her, Luo Lingshuang could no longer bear it.
Tiger poison does not eat children.
And this tigress in front of us is treating her cubs like this.
They're worse than animals.
A powerful pressure was suddenly released, pressing down on the mother tiger who was nursing two other tiger cubs like a tidal wave.
Immediately afterwards, his body appeared inside the cave. After casting a low-level cleansing spell on the mutated tiger cub, he picked it up.
A pair of murderous eyes stared intently at the tigress who was letting out low growls and trying to get up.
He said coldly:
"As a mother, how could you think of killing your own child? Are you an uncivilized beast?"
Although the tigress's strength had reached the late stage of the second tier, she couldn't even stand up under Luo Lingshuang's overwhelming pressure. She could only let out a low roar at Luo Lingshuang.
The tiger clan's pride prevents it from bowing its head.
Hearing the tigress's low growls, the Great Sage frowned and said, "This tiger demon says that these are my children, and it's none of your business."
There are reasons why I treat it this way.
It is inherently weak and of low quality, and has no chance of growing up. It will only bring shame to our Thunder Tiger clan.
Even if it doesn't die now, it will eventually be bitten to death by other Thunder Tigers.
Hearing the Great Sage's words did not make Luo Ling Shuang think about letting the mother tiger go.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Xuanchen sighed inwardly.
Luo Lingshuang was not wrong in this matter, but the tigress in front of her was not wrong either.
The strong are respected.
This belief is even more prevalent among the demon race.
However, now that I've found this mutated tiger cub, it proves that it wasn't meant to die.
However, I didn't want to waste words with this tiger demon, so I just killed it with one sword.
He immediately drew his longsword, intending to finish him off with a single strike.
Just as Zhang Xuanchen was about to make a move, the mutated tiger cub in Luo Lingshuang's arms suddenly struggled and let out a soft growl.
The Great Sage looked at Zhang Xuanchen with a complicated expression and said:
"Xuan Chen, this little guy doesn't want us to kill this tigress."
Hearing this, Zhang Xuanchen was slightly taken aback, then sneered at the mother tiger and the two tiger cubs lying on the ground, not daring to move at all, "Did you hear that? You don't treat it as your child, but it treats you as its mother."
Remember, your life, and the lives of these two tiger cubs, were saved by the child you wanted to kill.
After saying that, he walked up to Luo Lingshuang, stared at the mutated tiger cub in her arms, and said softly:
"Since you can see what we want to do, you should be able to understand what I'm saying."
Do you want to stay here with this mother who looks down on you, or do you want to come with us and see the vast world?
Don't worry, whatever choice you make, I won't kill them, and I certainly won't kill you.
The last sentence was serious, after all, the Lei Hu family hadn't provoked them. The reason they wanted to kill the mother tiger earlier was to avenge the mutated tiger cub.
I just didn't expect this mutated tiger cub to be so smart.
"Roar! Roar!"
"It wants to come with us and leave this place forever," Da Sheng translated in time.
Hearing this, Zhang Xuanchen smiled with satisfaction and rubbed the head of the mutated tiger cub.
He said, "Okay, you won't make the wrong choice."
But we need to eat something before we leave.
After saying that, he took the tiger cub from Luo Ling Shuang's arms, placed it next to the mother tiger, and smiled:
"Eat quickly, you saved the lives of that family of three."
He then looked at the tigress with a look of disgust on her face and said coldly, "You don't need to look at it like that."
To tell you the truth, this child's potential far exceeds yours.
Your Thunder Tiger clan still needs it to break free from the shackles of your bloodline.
Otherwise, would we come all this way to you to take it away?
Forget it, why waste my breath on you, you beast?
You may never meet again in this lifetime.
After saying that, Zhang Xuanchen fell silent, and the cave became quiet.
After the mutated tiger cub had eaten and drunk its fill, Zhang Xuanchen and the others took it away from the cave.
Only the tigress with a complex expression remained.
……
A sudden gust of wind blows away the bright sun, and the scenery rushes westward.
Four months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Xuanchen gazed at the distant, mist-shrouded Xuanxiao Mountain, his face showing excitement.
"Finally home."
