What a cute little one! Leng Ruoxue carefully observed the little wolf as it ate. The cub was a level eight spirit beast with good aptitude. The fur all over it was silvery-white, and the patch of silver fur on its forehead was particularly obvious. From what she knew, spirit beasts like wolves were extremely protective of their cubs. So she released her divine sense and unsurprisingly found two adult silver wolves in the bushes not far away. It seemed that the origin of this little fellow was not simple.
After eating, the little wolf left.
The next morning, when Leng Ruoxue had just cooked breakfast, the little wolf returned. Looking at the uninvited little wolf, she generously offered it breakfast. She even let it play with Blaze, and the two little fellows quickly got along. She was happy that Blaze finally had a playmate. After all, Blaze was still a child, and Baby, the only other child around her, refused to play with him. Just like this, the little wolf came back every morning and left at night. But after a few days, the little wolf's parents came.
Just after Leng Ruoxue harvested some nearby herbs and returned to the temporary camp, she saw a large silver wolf waiting for her.
She looked at the silver wolf. She had already been here for a few days and seen many silver wolves, but this was the largest and mightiest one so far. This silver wolf was a level six holy beast, and its silver eyes were as keen as daggers. It had a coat of luxurious fur and also a patch of silver on its forehead that was exactly the same as the little wolf's. In addition to being the little wolf's parent, it was probably the silver wolf king here!
While Leng Ruoxue was looking at the silver wolf king, the silver wolf king was also looking at her. This human… I heard from many subordinates that my son looks for her every day. Even I don't see my son as much as this human! Thinking of this, the silver wolf king felt a tinge of jealousy.
In fact, from the moment Leng Ruoxue set foot on his territory, he already knew. However, all she did was pull out weeds every day or practice spiritual skills with his subordinates. She even took good care of his son. Besides, she didn't do anything to harm the silver wolves tribe, so he didn't mind her. But as more and more of his subordinates praised her, he couldn't help but become a little curious. It had to be known that spirit beasts, especially high-level ones, loathed humans. In their eyes, humans were greedy, hypocritical, and shameless. Moreover, silver wolves were very proud spirit beasts. For this human to gain the approval of so many of his subordinates, it was a testament of this human's uniqueness. It seemed that she was different from other humans.
"I am Concorde, the king here," the silver wolf king introduced himself.
"Leng Ruoxue." Leng Ruoxue looked at the silver wolf king doubtfully, not knowing why he looked for her. She knew that high-level spirit beasts were as intelligent as humans. Furthermore, she heard from Charm that except for some naturally brutal and bloodthirsty spirit beasts, the vast majority of high-level spirit beasts would not actively attack humans unless provoked, despite not liking humans.
Although Charm was around, she was unwilling to annoy this tribe of spirit beasts who liked to hold deep grudges, not to mention that she had a good impression of silver wolves. I shouldn't have provoked them, right? I merely found some silver wolves to practice occasionally. And I even grilled meat for them to repay them…
"You are special!" After speaking, the silver wolf king turned around and left.
Seeing the silver wolf king leave, Leng Ruoxue was flabbergasted. Did he come here just to say 'you are special' to me?
"Master, the silver wolf king specially came to see you!" whispered the transformed Charm, who was lying on her shoulder.
"Charm, what should we have for dinner?" Leng Ruoxue asked. She didn't want to intertwine over the matter. Besides, the silver wolf king probably meant no harm.
"I want to eat grilled fish," Charm said shyly. The fish from the space was really too delicious.
"Okay, let's grill fish!" Leng Ruoxue also liked fish.
From the Heaven and Earth Bracelet, she took out a few large fishes that each weighed five kilograms. Charm took the initiative to clean them, and Leng Ruoxue released Darling to help. After the preparations were finished, guests came.
Leng Ruoxue looked at the little wolf who came every day. This time, he was not alone. By his side were two silvery-white wolves. One of them was the silver wolf king she had just met, and the other was slightly smaller than the silver wolf king and was a level three holy beast. If she was not mistaken, it should be the queen of the silver wolf tribe, the little wolf's mother. It seemed that the family of three were here for a meal. Leng Ruoxue helplessly took out a few rabbits from the Heaven and Earth Bracelet, the smallest of which weighed about five kilograms. This should be enough. Fortunately, I taught Charm how to grill meat. Otherwise, I would be seriously exhausted.
The family of three had a very satisfying meal. And from then on, they frequently came for meals. Furthermore, Leng Ruoxue gained a better sparring partner.
Leng Ruoxue looked at the sword with a thin and sharp blade in her hand. It was a spirit artifact that she had refined herself. Although she was not too satisfied, she could make do with it for now. After all, although spirit artifact-grade weapons were not the best on the Ling Feng Continent, they were not bad.
Holding the sword, Leng Ruoxue stood opposite the silver wolf king and was ready to begin sparring.
"Concorde, you're not allowed to go easy on me, or else I won't give you any food," Leng Ruoxue reminded. She didn't dare to let her own beasts be her training partners, lest they became hurt. Even if she did, she wouldn't go all out. Thus, she could only find the lower-level silver wolves. But they were not on par with her individually, and the training effect wasn't much, so she would request to fight with a few dozen at once. The silver wolf king was different, as he was a level six holy beast, which was equivalent to peak Spiritual Sovereign. In fact, he was only slightly stronger than her, so he was definitely the best sparring partner. Furthermore, he was very experienced in combat, which allowed her to learn a lot.
"Of course I won't," the silver wolf king said seriously.
"Then let's begin!" Leng Ruoxue initiated attacking. Her sword flashed as she charged forward. Her sword technique was called 'Meteor Sword Technique', a technique that was part of the Heaven Defying Art. This sword technique was known for the sword beams that would shoot out from all directions like shooting stars, making it difficult to defend against. Whether it was single or group combat, the strike to the enemy would be fatal. And if she infused her spiritual power into the sword, it would absolutely be a finishing blow.
The silver wolf was of the wind attribute, extremely fast, and rich in combat experience. They were at a stalemate after dozens of rounds of fighting, and no one could overpower the other.
After a while, the beast and human stopped their showdown.
"Tie!" Leng Ruoxue said.
"You won!" the silver wolf king said.
The woman and beast spoke almost simultaneously. But the silver wolf king knew that he had actually lost because Leng Ruoxue had not infused spiritual power into her sword moves. If she had infused spiritual power, he would have been seriously injured even if he did not die.
"Wow, Beloved Master, you are great!" The transformed Darling rushed into Leng Ruoxue's arms and kissed the beautiful face of his favorite master, taking advantage of her in the meantime.
Leng Ruoxue glanced at Darling and touched his head. She was now a bit accustomed to Darling taking advantage of her.
…
"Master, there are sounds of fighting in front!" Charm reminded her.
"Where?" Leng Ruoxue had been staying in the silver wolf tribe's territory for quite some time. But she had gathered almost all the herbs she could in the silver wolf tribe's territory, so she planned to go farther today.
"It doesn't sound too far away. Shall we take a look?" Charm asked.
"Let's go!" Leng Ruoxue said. She could learn from watching others' battles sometimes.
"What a huge snake…" Before getting close, Leng Ruoxue saw a dull-yellow snake about one hundred meters long and ten meters thick. Is this an… earth python?
The earth python was an earth-attribute spirit beast that was good at defense and had very tough skin, but its meat was very tender. It was a rare delicacy. This earth python was a level three holy beast, and its strength was around that of an intermediate Spiritual Sovereign. Its thick skin coupled with its defenses would give even a level nine holy beast a tough time when facing it.
Leng Ruoxue slowly approached and saw the situation in front of her clearly. The thick body of the earth python was curling around a man. Although the man was already entangled by the earth python and was almost choking to death, the short sword in his hand still kept piercing the earth python's body. It was obvious that the man was persevering with sheer willpower. If he wasn't strong enough, he would have become the python's food.
Not far away from them, there was a black leopard covered in blood and wounds. It was a shadow leopard, a level nine spirit beast. It had the attributes of darkness and wind, which was very rare, allowing it to be good at stealth and be fast. It was obviously about to perish but still jumped onto the python to attack it with its sharp claws. But such attacks were just like tickles to the python. It was clearly a one-sided battle.
"Shadow, quickly run away. Leave me!" shouted the man, who was about to be suffocated by the earth python.
"Master, I won't go. I have to save you!" that black leopard named Shadow said stubbornly.
Leng Ruoxue looked at the interaction between them, and she couldn't help feeling a little moved. She might have been born cold-blooded. She was not a saint, nor did she want to be a saint. She wasn't meddlesome and hated trouble, especially in this dangerous forest where there were deaths every day. Since you were taking risks, you had to be prepared for death. Furthermore, the law of nature was the law of the jungle. Therefore, she did not intend to save them at first, but now she wanted to save them. It was undeniable that it was the strong bond between the master and the beast that had moved her. She herself was someone who loved spirit beasts, so for the sake of the strong bond between them, she couldn't watch them die in front of her.
Thinking of this, Leng Ruoxue shot powerful fire-attribute spiritual power at the earth python like a bolt of lightning, directly hitting its vital spot and killing it with a single blow. After she cultivated the Heaven Defying Art, the effects of her heavenly spiritual skills had increased several times. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to kill the earth python, which was known for its defense, in one attack just now.
"Shadow, wake up! Don't leave me!" The man, who just escaped from the python, knelt on the ground and hugged the unconscious black leopard while weeping bitterly.
Leng Ruoxue sighed. Alright, I will do good to the end. She took out a pill and stuffed it into the black leopard's mouth.
It did not take long for the unconscious and wounded black leopard to wake up.
"Master!" The black panther looked at its master, who was already safe, and licked his face happily.
"Shadow, you're alright. Great!" The man looked at Shadow excitedly. Although there were bloodstains on its body, its injuries were all healed.
At this moment, he remembered he hadn't thanked their savior yet and felt that he was being a little rude. "Thank you for saving me and Shadow. My life is yours from now on!"
The man raised his head to see his savior. He was stunned into a trance momentarily, thinking that a beautiful and noble goddess had saved him. But he quickly returned to his senses and looked seriously at the beautiful woman in front of him, unable to look away.
"What would I want your life for?" Leng Ruoxue said indifferently, her beautiful eyes looking at the man in front of her. He was very young, at most in his early twenties, with good features, resolute and clean-cut. Although he was not very handsome, he was very masculine, and his temperament was outstanding. His cultivation level was not very high and only at Great Spiritualist.
"I can do anything as long as you ask me to," that man said resolutely.
"Really? Even if I ask you to murder, set fires, rob houses, and other things against your conscience?" Leng Ruoxue deliberately asked. She could see that this man was a firm and upright person. This person could become a trustworthy partner who would not betray her. However, she wanted to know how far he would go and whether or not he was qualified to be her partner. She did not want someone pedantic who was not pragmatic and flexible to be her partner.
"Yes, I will do anything you ask of me even if it goes against my conscience." He had almost died once and was only alive now thanks to her life-saving grace. Not only did she save him, but she also saved his best partner, so he had to repay this favor.
"What is your name?" Leng Ruoxue asked.
"Feng Moran."
