Listening to Xiao Hei's words, Bai Li Hongzhuang hesitated for a moment and then quickly concealed her own aura, feeling a little guilty. Being with her master in the outside world all this time, she had grown accustomed to releasing her aura and had momentarily forgotten about it.
Bai Li Hongzhuang gently touched the little head of the White Lion and realized that its identity as the Beast King could be of great help to her in this small world.
"It's because of the White Lion," Bai Li Hongzhuang said with a shallow and captivating smile, explaining to Xia Zhijing and the others.
Upon hearing this, Xia Zhijing and the others looked at Bai Li Hongzhuang with confusion, not understanding the meaning behind her words.
"Hongzhuang, what do you mean? I don't quite understand," Xia Zhijing asked, puzzled.
Gong Shaoqing observed the White Lion, his eyes shimmering with contemplation.
"Hongzhuang, is it because the White Lion has a high level, so many demonic beasts keep their distance?" It was hard to believe that such a small-sized creature like the White Lion could possess formidable strength, but apart from the explanation given by Bai Li Hongzhuang, they couldn't think of any other explanation.
Bai Li Hongzhuang nodded slightly, "That's right."
Xia Zhijing curiously looked at the White Lion perched on Bai Li Hongzhuang's shoulder, her eyes filled with admiration and surprise.
"I didn't expect this little fellow, who seems harmless, to have such a high level."
Xia Zhijing reached out to touch the small head of the White Lion, and the White Lion lazily leaned against Bai Li Hongzhuang's shoulder, allowing Xia Zhijing to stroke its fur.
After following its master for so long, it was crystal clear about who its enemies and friends were.
"The White Lion is the Beast King, so ordinary demonic beasts generally won't appear in its presence."
Bai Li Hongzhuang chuckled, her right hand gently touching the White Lion's head, revealing the character "王" (king) on its forehead.
It turned out that the White Lion had never revealed its true identity while following her before, but now that they were in the small world, there was no need to continue hiding.
However, as Bai Li Hongzhuang's words fell, Xia Zhijing and the others were stunned for a moment, looking at Bai Li Hongzhuang in disbelief, wondering if they had misheard.
"Hongzhuang, what do you mean by saying the White Lion is what?"
Xia Zhijing asked again, and the gaze of Gong Shaoqing and the others also focused on Bai Li Hongzhuang.
"The Beast King," Bai Li Hongzhuang affirmed her answer.
Upon hearing this, Xia Zhijing couldn't help but open her mouth wide, staring blankly at the White Lion. "You're saying this little fellow is the Beast King?"
Even though she was now certain of the answer, Xia Zhijing still found it hard to believe.
After all, the cute appearance of the White Lion was completely different from the image she had in mind for a Beast King.
"How did you form a contract with the Beast King?" Dongfang Yu couldn't help but ask, looking at the White Lion. Beasts of this level were impossible for ordinary cultivators to form contracts with.
Although Bai Li Hongzhuang had excellent talent in cultivation, her current strength was still weak and insufficient to form a contract.
"It was a fortuitous encounter that led to the contract. In fact, I didn't know that the White Lion was the Beast King before. I only found out later," Bai Li Hongzhuang's smile widened. Indeed, she had been quite lucky to come across this rarely seen Beast King.
If Xuanyuan Yutian knew that the reward he gave her in the form of a demonic beast egg turned out to be the Beast King, he would probably regret it immensely.
Gong Shaoqing observed the White Lion. He remembered Bai Li Hongzhuang asking him if he knew what kind of demonic beast the White Lion was.
He had always thought that the White Lion was a harmless creature without any combat power, but he never expected this little fellow to be so powerful.
