It was rumoured that they were more coldblooded and devious than snakes and humans have never been able to take them down, where they had not just failed in capturing these mystical spirit beasts, countless have fallen prey to them.
Seeing the fierce snarling little creature before him, Little Monster quickly laughed reassuringly and said: “No need to get so tensed up. We are all good guys here.”
“Pffft~” Xun Luo could not help but burst out laughing. “Which part of you here looks like a good guy! ?”
Being made fun of like that, Little Monster merely scoffed contemptuously and then said in a scathing voice: “If being more good looking than you means being a bad guy, then I’ll admit it readily.”
“…..” The smile on Xun Luo’s face froze up, and then decided to clamp his mouth shut and not say anything more.
Fine. He doesn’t want to speak to people with such a venomous tongue anyway. He will choke on that tongue of his one fine day.
Ignoring the back and forth squabbling between those two people, Lou Jun Yao slowly took a couple of steps closer and looked at the little fella who was watching him with large wary eyes before he said softly: “I need your help.”
Meatball’s eyes blinked a few times, seemingly puzzled.
Lou Jun Yao raised a finger and pointed at the spot where a crowd of people were gathered around and said: “Those spirit beasts at the bottom of the gorge in front are blocking our way. The fastest solution for us now is to have you go deal with them.”
“Why should I listen to you?” Meatball said with an unfriendly glint in its eyes.
Born innately haughty and arrogant, their pride inviolable, that seemed to be a common characteristic all spirit beasts shared. So when it heard that commanding tone in the man’s voice, Meatball was immediately indignant.
Mother is the one and only person who can boss it around. Anybody else….. Don’t even dream about it.
With that thought in mind, Meatball even went on to bare its fangs at the man.
Seeing that, Lou Jun Yao raised an eyebrow and then opened his mouth to say: “The sooner we are rid of these obstacles, we will then be able to go rescue Qing Yu earlier. Do you really want to see her suffer all that torture in the Mind Free Peak?”
No matter how disgruntled and indignant it felt, after hearing the man’s words, Meatball could do nothing but give in. Who asked it to care for Mother so much! !
Immediately, Meatball jumped off from Qing Bei’s arms, its tiny body appearing in the very next instant upon the iron chain bridge that swayed gently under the gusts of wind blowing up from the bottom of that deep chasm.
Xun Luo stared, his eyes wide with surprise as he said with awe in his voice: “That little creature’s speed is actually quite a bit faster than Little Monster’s just now!”
Little Monster’s moves he had shown just now had already stunned many of their eyes but the speed of the Dark Phantasm Cat was so fast that it was just terrifying. It was feared that even the Hurricane Hawk that was well known for its incredible speed among spirit beasts was not even half as quick.
