The next day, Ling Yun had just woken up when he saw Xiao Wu at the lake, washing a few carrots.
He went over to greet her, but unexpectedly, Xiao Wu snorted coldly, ignoring him in a huff.
It was clear that she was still angry about him "speaking well" of humans the night before.
It seemed the story from yesterday had worked; she was transferring her hatred for humans onto him.
Ling Yun suppressed a laugh and apologized to Xiao Wu.
"I'm sorry, little girl. I was wrong, okay? I promise I won't speak up for humans anymore. Humans are all bad guys, alright?"
"Hmph!" Xiao Wu snorted again, clenching her small fists and glaring at Ling Yun.
"Little tiger, remember what you said today. If you dare to help humans again, Sister Xiao Wu will beat you to death."
After speaking, she stuffed a washed carrot into Ling Yun's tiger mouth.
"Big kitty, I'll reward you with a carrot. It's delicious! It's my favorite thing to eat."
Ling Yun was a bit amused. Giving a tiger a carrot...
Only this little girl could do something like that.
However, it was her kindness, so Ling Yun couldn't refuse.
With his huge mouth, a single carrot wasn't even enough to fill a gap between his teeth. He swallowed it whole.
Xiao Wu closed her eyes, enjoying the carrot she was munching on.
It was as if she were eating the most delicious food in the world. Her two rabbit ears were playfully swaying, very cute.
Suddenly, she seemed to remember something, opening her watery autumn-like eyes and looking at Ling Yun.
"Big kitty, I heard some of my kind yesterday saying that quite a few humans have appeared on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest recently, and I don't know what they're looking for.
If you're going out today into the ten-thousand-year soul beast area, you must be careful, don't get caught by humans. If possible, try to stay in the core area, humans generally don't dare to enter here."
Ling Yun raised an eyebrow. Humans appearing on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, they must be hunting soul beasts to obtain soul rings.
There were quite a few humans, and their hunting targets definitely wouldn't be weak.
He thought, what if he could be a mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind?
After those humans successfully hunted a powerful soul beast, he could then go and pick up the leftovers, which would definitely be a good decision.
Ling Yun raised his small paw and stroked Xiao Wu's head.
"Don't worry, little girl, I won't be caught so easily. I'll go to the outer area later and meet those humans."
After saying that, Ling Yun shook his tiger fur and headed towards the outer area.
Xiao Wu's dissatisfied voice could be heard from behind.
"Don't call me little girl anymore! You have to call me Sister Xiao Wu like Da Ming and Er Ming do!"
"Understood, little girl."
Ling Yun chuckled, turned his head, and responded, then sped up his run...
Xiao Wu stomped her feet in anger. A big cat of the seventy-thousand-year level actually dared to call her little girl. That was her mother's term of endearment for her.
Other than her mother, in the entire core area, including Da Ming and Er Ming, who dared not respectfully call her Sister Xiao Wu?
As a ten-thousand-year-old "rascal" rabbit, she was now very angry, and the consequences were dire.
She secretly made up her mind that when the big cat came back tonight, she would give him a good scolding, and by the way, establish her position as the big sister of the core zone.
"Hmph! Big cat, just you wait!"
Ling Yun had no idea what Xiao Wu was thinking right now.
He was only thinking about finding food to fill his stomach first, and then following the human hunting team to take advantage of the situation.
On the way to the outer perimeter, Ling Yun found some wild fruits to eat.
After simply eating some wild fruits, he mimicked the appearance of a Bloodthirsty Gryphon.
He soared into the air from the ground, using the vast aerial view to search for those human traces.
The Bloodthirsty Gryphon's eyes were structured much like an eagle's, with a visual range of dozens of kilometers, roughly six to eight times that of a human.
This allowed Ling Yun to easily spot every blade of grass and every tree on the ground, even while flying at high speeds at an altitude of four or five thousand meters.
Therefore, everything happening on the ground was within Ling Yun's control.
The moment he mimicked the Bloodthirsty Gryphon, he instantly disappeared from the "Advancement" and "Potential" golden lists. This outcome was identical to what happened when he reverted to his Slime form.
Ling Yun guessed that perhaps he would only appear on the "Advancement" and "Potential" golden lists when he mimicked the Three-Tailed Nether Tiger.
For Ling Yun, this was the best outcome, as it maximized his safety.
Heaven Dou Empire, the Crown Prince's residence.
Qian Renxue saw that the Three-Tailed Nether Tiger had vanished from the lists yet again. She slammed her fist on the table in anger.
"Bang…"
Before she could even speak, a middle-aged man immediately knelt down on one knee, respectfully lowering his head.
Qian Renxue's voice was low as a sentence squeezed out of her mouth with difficulty.
"Haven't caught it yet? It's been a week already! Is it so difficult to catch a 70,000-year-old soul beast?"
The middle-aged man responded with a humble attitude.
"I'm sorry, Young Master. We've done our best to search, but we haven't found any trace of the Three-Tailed Nether Tiger yet."
"Hmph, useless!"
Qian Renxue scolded in dissatisfaction, but, having received a good education, she quickly controlled her emotions.
"I heard the Papal Palace is also looking? Remember, no matter what, you must find that Three-Tailed Nether Tiger before the Papal Palace does.
I don't want it to be taken by that woman, even if she is my… it's not allowed!"
"Yes!" The middle-aged man nodded heavily and then floated away.
Leaving Qian Renxue clenching her fists, her teeth grinding together.
Inside the Papal Palace.
Bibi Dong, sitting on the throne, rarely showed a doting expression. She spoke gently to a beautiful girl of eleven or twelve years old in front of her.
"Nana, I heard you've been pursued by many boys in the academy recently? I wonder if this news is true?"
The beautiful girl was none other than Bibi Dong's disciple, Hu Liena.
She responded to Bibi Dong in a coquettish manner.
"Teacher, how could that be? You know me, I don't like those lecherous boys.
Right now, I only want to be as strong as you, to climb onto those three golden lists..."
Bibi Dong smiled gently, stood up from her throne, and came before the beautiful girl, raising her hand to stroke her small head.
"Nana, Teacher hopes you won't be like Teacher, focusing only on cultivation. Teacher hopes more that you can find a boy you like, and who likes you, don't be like me..."
Bibi Dong's face showed a look of sadness, and a trace of sorrow flashed in her eyes.
Hu Liena noticed the sorrow in Bibi Dong's eyes, but she couldn't understand why such a powerful and high-ranking teacher would show such an expression.
Could it be that strength and power still couldn't bring happiness?
She pursed her lips and tentatively asked Bibi Dong, "Teacher, are you alright..."
Bibi Dong didn't respond, but simply stroked Hu Liena's small head, her eyes filled with affection.
At this moment, in her eyes, the Hu Liena before her transformed into the image of her daughter, Qian Renxue.
She vaguely felt a piercing pain in her chest, making it difficult for her to breathe...
