“Miss Cheng, how could you eavesdrop on us like that?” complained Miss Jun-er in a disgruntled manner.
“But I didn’t eavesdrop. I openly listened to your conversation!” smiled Cheng Xiao Xiao as she stood not too far away from them and looked up and down the two of them.
ROOOAAAR!
AARROO!
As Cheng Xiao Xiao approached them, all the mystical beasts started howling as they circled Cheng Xiao Xiao happily.
These mystical beasts had turned into an essential part of the Cheng’s surveillance team and had been patrolling the area with the disciples every day. They didn’t get to see Cheng Xiao Xiao very much; now that the opportunity had presented itself, naturally they wouldn’t let it slipped by.
Cheng Xiao Xiao reached out her, patted these mystical beasts on their foreheads, and smiled, “Good boys. You all get extra food for dinner tonight!”
AAARRROOO!
ROOAARRR!
The mention of extra food made the mystical beasts even happier; that meant they would have delicious food again. Of course, these delicious food were anything from the Cheng’s disciples, but what their Mistress brought out from the dimension.
That’s the real good stuff!
Seeing how the mystical beasts behaved around Cheng Xiao Xiao, Miss Jun-er, also a beast tamer herself, couldn’t help but was envious of Cheng Xiao Xiao. It wasn’t that those from Palace of Immortal Beasts couldn’t tame mystical beasts; they could. They could also tame groups of mystical beasts, but not her. The best she could do was maybe just a few, not hundreds or thousands like this. With the exception of the seniors at Palace of Immortal Beasts, not even her Mistress Gong Zixuan could accomplish that.
“Miss Cheng, can you please tell me how….”
“Wait….”
Before Miss Jun-er could say anything else, she was stopped by a swift and fierce look from Cheng Xiao Xiao. After a little while, she said to the one in front of her, “I have something that needs taken care of. We will continue this conversation when I get back!”
As soon as she finished say that, her body immediately disappeared into the Wanan mountain ranges in a flash.
“You…”
“Shi mei Cheng, what happened?”
The two disciples shouted behind her but she was already gone, so fast that she couldn’t even respond to them.
Cheng Xiao Xiao, who quickly disappeared into the mountain range, headed straight toward the location that she had sensed.
Weaving left and right in the forest, Cheng Xiao Xiao had a bad sensation, something had gone awfully wrong, but she couldn’t tell what it was.
“Shi xiong Danhuang!”
When she finally arrived at a deep part of the forest, she saw a man with a savage look and covered in blood.
Cheng Xiao Xiao was shocked by the location and the extend of injury on the man.
Sweat size of peas were rolling down his forehead. His body was covered in blood and blood was still pouring out from his mouth.
“Xiao, Xiao….” His mouth opened and closed. Liu Danhuang struggled to open his eyes after hearing someone approaching and made out a few barely audible words. His voice was weak and more mouth spilled out from his mouth.
Cheng Xiao Xiao’s brows furrowed and said, “Don’t talk!” And she knocked her out.
“little Yuteng, come out quick! Check on the intensity of his injuries!”
“Yes, Young Mistress!”
little Yuteng flashed out from the dimension right away and, looking at the seriously injured person, shook her head and said, “Incredible. Just incredible. Whatever had hurt him so badly?”
“I don’t care who it was. Find out who did this!” A cold light flashed across Cheng Xiao Xiao’s eyes. “Help him, quickly. I am going to look around and see if I can find anything.”
“Alright!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao immediately started investigating the area. She came running here because she felt a desperate call for help from her mystical beast. She came immediately and couldn’t believe she wasn’t able to notice anything.
It hasn’t been that long. Whatever it was couldn’t have gotten too far. When she finally realized what she was looking at, she was mortified.
The only thing remaining of Liu Danhuang’s white tiger was its skin. The skin was also intact, but all the bone and flesh were gone.
What had happened here?!
