The leopard returned and found the two of them surrounded by monster cores and fear grip it.
~How many of my kind have they killed? ~ it thought.
~Oh you are back? I was about to go get your core. You are quite lucky~ Wu Yi said and stood up.
~Drop them by the cave entrance~ she added.
The thirty feet plus tall leopard walked over to the big cave entrance and opened its mouth. It dropped the branches and dried leaves it brought back and stood aside, waiting for instructions.
Wu Yi walked up and separated them in to several piles. When she was finished, she ordered,
~Lit this one up, just lit it a little~
The leopard nodded and obeyed.
~Here you go~
Wu Yi threw a pill at it. It didn’t know what she was giving it. Not wanting to get her angry, he opened his mouth and swallowed. Instantly, he felt a refreshing feeling spread round its body, and its eyes lit up.
He looked at her with an expression of wanting more.
