Chapter 371: Chapter 371: The Splendid Great Tiger Chapter 371: Chapter 371: The Splendid Great Tiger “Aow aow…!”
The tiger, obviously impatient, roared twice and leapt into the air…
Facing the imposing, magnificent tiger, Xuexue dared not be careless and focused intensely on it. Seeing it pounce, she quickly dodged to the side, and with a backhand swing, she chopped down…
The sickle solidly split the tiger’s buttocks, opening a wound. Perhaps it wasn’t deep, for the tiger felt no pain at all and even turned around, glaring fiercely at Xuexue as if it wanted to tear her apart and devour her right away.
Possibly provoked, the tiger attacked even more fiercely this time,opening its bloody maw as if insane, and charged. In the blink of an eye, it was upon her. Xuexue had no time to dodge, and it looked like her life was about to end.
Just at this critical moment, a flash of white light passed…
The tiger seemed to have been struck by something and paused briefly.
Seizing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Xuexue quickly rolled away from in front of the tiger.
“Master, Master, are you alright?” Xiao Taohong’s voice rang out near her ear.
Xuexue scrambled up from the ground and replied irritably, “If you had been any later, you wouldn’t have seen me anymore. What do you think?”
It seemed Big Bull was right. Her skills were only superficial, ineffective against real enemies. Otherwise, with the strike she had delivered to the tiger, even if it hadn’t killed it, it should have at least been badly hurt. Now, it was completely unharmed, and she had nearly died herself. Xuexue felt discouraged. Her enemies were much fiercer than ten, even a hundred tigers. At this rate, when would she ever get her revenge?
“Master, be careful.”
While Xuexue was feeling despondent, another fierce attack came her way. She quickly rolled several times on the ground to narrowly avoid the tiger’s claws.
Ever since the tiger had appeared, Xuexue had been rolling on the ground to escape it. Now, she was utterly disheveled, covered in grass and dust, looking extremely wretched. She was completely furious and didn’t wait for the tiger to come at her; she ran at it with her sickle.
Xuexue’s reckless bravery terrified Xiao Taohong. Her life was tied to Xuexue’s, and she couldn’t afford any mishap. Now, Xiao Taohong kept her eyes fixed on Xuexue and the tiger, ready to intervene at the first sign of danger.
Fueled by anger and regardless of the consequences, Xuexue powered from her feet, leaped onto the tiger’s back. While it was still stunned, she firmly seated herself, grasping the tiger’s fur with one hand and raising the sickle high with the other, fiercely slashing at its neck.
After the initial shock, the tiger realized it had a human on its back and immediately grew furious. It began violently twisting and turning, trying to throw Xuexue off.
Xuexue slashed several times but missed the tiger’s neck. In her desperation, especially as the tiger shook violently, nearly throwing her off multiple times, she found it extremely difficult to target its neck. Then, in a heated moment, she simply swung the sickle violently towards its back.
Possibly because Xuexue exerted all her strength, she finally cut deeper. The tiger, in pain, thrashed even more fiercely.
The tiger fur Xuexue was gripping came off in her hand. She had no chance to grab another handful and was violently thrown off its back.
Fortunately, Xuexue landed in a patch of grass, so she wasn’t injured. She threw the tiger fur from her hands, fearing another ambush from the tiger, and quickly scrambled to her feet.
