Just out of the tiger, and meet the Wolf

"Spare me.....”

The leopard-headed Yun Lie, with a fierce aura, was currently covered in fresh blood, crawling on the ground while also letting out faint whimpers.

“I especially like warriors like you who like to carry weapons with them.”

A giant ape with a blue face and fierce fangs grinned, revealing its interlocking canine teeth, while also playing with Yun Lie’s famous weapon.

“Not only delivering food to my doorstep, but bringing your own cutlery!”

“Don’t...spare me......”

Hearing these words, Yun Lie turned his head with difficulty, only to be met with a cold glint of a blade.

As the blade slid across Yun Lie's throat, cutting open his windpipe, the fresh blood also sprayed along the trajectory of the swinging blade, falling on the blue stone, leaving a different kind of painting.

“Heh!”

The giant ape snorted disdainfully, gripped the long knife in reverse, as if holding a meat cleaver, and started hacking down at Yun Lie.

Rustle rustle.....

Amidst the sound of swaying and rubbing tree branches, a black-and-white Huskita floating in mid-air rushed out of the woods, and happened to catch the giant ape that had just killed Yun Lie.

The giant ape paused his actions, looking at the floating little Thirteen, used the blade of the knife in his hand to scrape his chin.

“Which family’s.....”

Before he could finish speaking, the invisible Du ke carried Thirteen and dashed madly in another direction.

How is there also a xue yao here!

Damn it, when did Steaming Cloud Mountain get so many xue yaos?

Didn't they say there were only ordinary warriors?

All the way here, this giant ape was already the third one.

If there is a fourth one, we'll really be screwed!

Once is a coincidence, twice is an accident, three times is a coincidence, but if there is a fourth time, that would be outrageous.

Du ke had just left when the giant ape tilted his head and clicked his tongue, "Weird temper!"

"Oh well, time to eat first!"

The giant ape turned his gaze back to the now completely dead Yun Lie, peeled back his upper and lower lips, revealing his two rows of teeth.

"A human warrior's heart and liver are great supplements!"

"After this hunting feast, my cultivation will be able to advance another level. If I eat more, perhaps I'll even be able to glimpse the legendary Dao Foundation Realm that human cultivators talk about!!"

.......

"Awoo!"

Thirteen let out a howl, but Du ke had no time to care about this silly dog at all.

Don't you know what the situation is now?

We've encountered three xue yaos now, do you know what a xue yao is?

Those things eat people as cultivation food.

How could that be good news?

If they were in a good mood and wanted to change their taste, could he and this silly dog be swallowed in one bite?

Maintaining his invisibility, the humanoid cat carried the dog and dashed madly. Just after passing a big rock, he saw a gray wolf buried in eating a corpse.

Sensing Du ke's arrival, the gray wolf stopped eating, looked up at him, and licked its long muzzle smeared with viscous fresh blood.

"You....."

Before the gray wolf could speak, Du ke changed direction again and fled carrying Thirteen.

Thirteen curiously tilted his head at the gray wolf watching his departure. The gray wolf blinked and wondered: "Which family's pup is this? He looks a bit strange!"

However, the gray wolf soon stopped pondering this as the rich smell of blood really stimulated her taste buds, making her adam's apple move as she buried herself back into the abdomen of this corpse and enjoyed a big feast.

"The fourth one!"

Du ke frantically cursed in his heart. Did Steaming Cloud Mountain become a demon nest?

How were there so many xue yaos?

Xue yaos wouldn't usually group up easily, because their demonic nature was fickle and hard to figure out.

Let alone xue yaos who used humans as blood food for cultivation. These guys ate people every day, so most of them weren't very smart.

If multiple xue yaos got together, they absolutely wouldn't stop until beating each other into a pulp.

This was like not having two tigers on one mountain.

Even one male and one female wouldn't work!

Because for xue yaos, other xue yaos were also great supplements.

"So many xue yaos gathered together is too abnormal. I thought I got caught up in some ordinary jianghu pursuit, but now it seems this matter is much deeper than I imagined!"

The cat carried Thirteen into a mountain depression. Slowing down, he looked around and saw no traces of xue yaos. He also carefully smelled the air.

After deeply inhaling multiple times and repeatedly confirming no blood scent in the air, he finally let out a sigh of relief.

"I can finally catch my breath!"

The cat put the dog on the ground, revealing himself, and also took out the bear skin mat, along with some Blood Food Pills and Clear Water Pills.

When the cat revealed himself, the dog excitedly pounced over.

"Aw Aw Aw!!"

Thirteen excitedly pounced on Du ke, licking him all over to express how much he missed the cat.

Although they had only been separated for two days, he really missed the kitty!

As long as the kitty was there, he wasn't afraid even if it was walking on knife edges and through raging fires!

After being pinned down and licked by the dog for a while, Du ke very disgustedly pushed the dog away.

"You're grown up now, still so clingy, be careful or you won't find a wife in the future!"

Although the cat said this inwardly, he still stuffed a Blood Food Pill into the dog's mouth. The dog hadn't eaten for almost two days since leaving him.

During that time, he had been mistreated by those people, it was simply miserable beyond belief.

After eating the Blood Food Pill, the dog was also squeezed by the cat's paws to drink some Clear Water Pill water.

But this still didn't make the dog settle down. The dog kept jumping around the cat, occasionally letting out happy barks.

In the end, the cat had to slap him with a paw to calm him down.

Even so, Thirteen still lay next to the cat, sticking close to him.

Du ke looked at the dog in annoyance, but didn't move.

If he moved, the dog would definitely stick to him like chewing gum.

Sigh, in his previous life he had also raised a Husky. But that Husky...

Tsk, it was chubby when small, damn it when it grew up it became a donkey face, and really liked gazing at him deeply.

Especially when shitting and pissing, its expression and gaze would become even more profound, as if pondering over the meaning of a dog's life.

Sigh, hard to describe in words!

As these thoughts flashed through the cat's mind, he pocketed his paws and also stuffed himself with a Blood Food Pill.

He was different from the dog. One Blood Food Pill could fill up the dog, but he needed at least two to get full.

As his cultivation level deepened, he needed more and more blood food.

Fortunately, the Blood Food Pills in his black cauldron space could still support him and the dog for a period of time.

"What should I do next?"

Du ke's eyelids lowered as he stuffed himself with a second Blood Food Pill. The cat who kept chewing the Blood Food Pill rolled thoughts around in his mind.

"The appearance of so many xue yaos at Steaming Cloud Mountain is clearly abnormal. It's obvious that this warrior pursuit to find the Tongue-Changing Grass hides some unknown conspiracy."

"And the waters run deep!"

"So deep that even if any young master of the Su Family came, they probably couldn't easily resolve it!"

A person who has entered the Dao is very strong, but not invincible.

Otherwise, the convoy wouldn't have been ambushed in the first place.

It's easy to dodge visible traps but hard to defend against hidden arrows, this is no empty boast.

"I'll have to stay at Steaming Cloud Mountain for a while longer, at least hiding for half a month. After half a month, I'll think of a way to leave the mountain, then think of how to get back to the Su Family."

"This is the most prudent approach!"

Just as Du ke thought this, he suddenly felt a faint tremor coming from afar, and the tremors rapidly grew stronger.

In just two breaths, a heavy object directly fell right in front of him and the dog. The sound of it hitting the ground was like boulders plunging into a river, with sound waves spreading out, hurting the cat's ears.

"Now what's jumped out?"

As Du ke looked at this mysteriously appeared figure, he wailed inwardly. At the same time, a pair of slap-sized paws also tore apart the raised dust, and a pair of fierce and savage eyes looked over at Du ke.

Or more accurately, they looked at the bear skin mat Du ke was sitting on.

"Brother...."

A growl like the low roar of a bear rumbled in Du ke's ears as a face filled with wildness appeared before his eyes. The other continued to flare his nostrils, staring fixedly at the bear skin mat beneath Du ke.

"That is elder brother's scent!!"

"Elder brother....elder brother....elder brother!!!"

The roar was like thunder crashing on flat ground. Amid the churning of his blood, Du ke's ears rang as he felt a strange and powerful ominous aura surging toward him.

"Why is elder brother's fur being used as a mat beneath you?!"
