Outside the Tiger Garden.
The ground was littered with corpses, blood flowing like rivers, filling the air with the stench of gore, resembling a scene from Hell.
The golden light blades unleashed by Nangong Luo were incredibly sharp, radiating brightly, relentlessly shredding the giant python. Amidst the flying golden light, the python's body was sliced beyond recognition.
The scales were torn apart, leaving countless bloody wounds. The giant python had already collapsed in a pool of blood, resembling a dead blood serpent.
At almost the same time, Fang Yuan crushed the last Red Lion's skull, completely ending its life.
As soon as the battle ended, Fang Yuan, like a ravenous ghost, tore off and devoured half of the Red Lion's body, causing a splash of blood and emitting a terrifying gulping sound as his throat bobbed continuously.
As he swallowed the blood and flesh of the fierce beast, Fang Yuan's body began to emit a bloody light, clearly operating the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Scripture to digest flesh and blood, convert energy, and replenish himself.
Meanwhile, looking at the pile of fierce beast flesh stacked like a hill before him, Jiang Che, who was also hungry, began to devour it.
Jiang Che's current massive size required an astonishing amount of food. One bite created a gap in the mound of flesh and blood.
After finishing off the fierce beast flesh in just a few bites, Jiang Che felt an overwhelming sense of fullness, which left him leisurely satisfied, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Truth be told, fresh fierce beast meat was a new experience for him. It tasted far better than the zoo-issued meat chunks, and it contained more energy, providing a quicker sense of fullness.
Compared to her brothers' ravenous ingestion, Nangong Luo ate much more elegantly, leisurely consuming the fierce beast's giant python without hurry.
Over time, she gradually adapted to this bloody, primal lifestyle, no longer feeling nauseated when consuming fierce beast flesh and blood.
Devouring the last bite, she licked the blood from the corner of her mouth clean.
Nangong Luo lifted her head, looking towards the zoo's exit, intending to leave.
"My identity is no longer human; I can't stay in this city for long. Next, I should head to the Great Cyan Mountain."
Nangong Luo's gaze showed a hint of determination.
During this period, she sorted through her past life memories and after some deliberation, had settled on a plan.
Now, with the Spiritual Energy Revival just beginning, those famous opportunities from the past life had not yet appeared. However, there were many minor opportunities suitable for her current self.
Qingshui City belonged to Jiang Province, and in the early stages of the Spiritual Energy Revival, there were quite a few minor opportunities within Jiang Province.
Of course, those remembered by Nangong Luo were relatively famous.
The Thunder Spirit Fruit Tree growing in Great Cyan Mountain was one of them.
This was the first opportunity Nangong Luo had her eye on.
However, Great Cyan Mountain was located on the boundary between Qingshui City and Lin City, far from the zoo.
There was no time to lose; she needed to leave here and quickly make her way to the Great Cyan Mountain!
Hearing Nangong Luo's inner voice, Jiang Che also began to waver, considering his next steps.
"This zoo is within Qingshui City, full of fierce beasts. There will inevitably be incidents of beasts escaping and hurting people. It's certainly a place of trouble and must not be stayed in for long."
Hesitating for a moment, Jiang Che still decided to follow Nangong Luo.
He was unfamiliar with this world, almost entirely ignorant, and Nangong Luo was reborn from the future, familiar with its trajectory. With her foresight and intuition, she would surely navigate smoothly, avoiding dangerous places.
Moreover, he could also protect Nangong Luo, after all, she had been bound by the system. If she suddenly died, Jiang Che would suffer a great loss.
Additionally, Jiang Che still had three unfilled binding spots, which he intended to use on targets with great growth potential. Perhaps he could obtain some future strong individuals' information from Nangong Luo.
"Besides, I could also catch some opportunities along the way!"
Jiang Che thought secretly, feeling a bit cheeky inside.
Although he wouldn't vie for Nangong Luo's opportunities, after she had her fill, he could have the leftovers without rejection, right?
"When humans react, the Qin Army will certainly come to cleanse this zoo. The fierce beasts in their early stages of evolution cannot face human heavy artillery. I must leave quickly!"
Nangong Luo recalled that in her past life, all zoos within cities were cleared out, tightening her heart a little.
"Goodbye, you two!"
"I hope you both survive. Although my current power is no match for you, in the future, I will leave you far behind!"
"If you can hold on until I return to Qingshui City, I will offer you protection!"
Nangong Luo glanced back at Fang Yuan and Jiang Che, thought to herself, and then strode towards the zoo's exit.
Seeing Nangong Luo start moving, Jiang Che quickly followed. Every step he took caused the ground to rumble.
Feeling the tremors coming from the ground behind her, Nangong Luo turned to see Jiang Che and was full of surprise.
"Is big brother planning to come with me?"
Although a bit surprised, Nangong Luo did not refuse, letting him follow her.
After the Spiritual Energy Revival, whether in the former great mountains and forests or the usual suburban countryside, there would undoubtedly be many fierce beasts roaming.
Now she was heading to Great Cyan Mountain, and the journey wouldn't be peaceful.
If encountering a few other fierce beasts, she could handle them easily. But if they were in swarms, it would be tough.
However, with the big brother accompanying her, everything would be different.
After all, she'd never seen a land beast evolve to the level of her big brother at the onset of the Spiritual Energy Revival. It's hard to find a land beast that could stand against him, so having the big brother with her provided a strong sense of security.
Moreover, although the big brother seemed lazy, he was gentle in nature, unlike the brutal second brother.
He had also saved her life, and she still hadn't repaid him. In the future, as she often ventured out seeking resources, whatever unsuitable could be given to the big brother.
As Jiang Che and Nangong Luo's figures faded into the distance, Fang Yuan, standing afar, couldn't hold back any longer, grinning widely.
That's just what he wanted.
"Great! Finally, those jinxes have gone!"
"Hehehe… I'll let you two live a little longer. Once my demonic power is perfected, I will definitely swallow this big brother and little sister!"
Fang Yuan grinned malevolently.
With the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Scripture in hand, devouring the world, he could rapidly build his power through devouring blood meals.
In the days to come, as long as he treaded carefully and consumed countless blood meals, the day would come when his "good big brother" and "good little sister" would be at his mercy.
Licking the sweet blood on the ground, Fang Yuan's gaze swept across other parts of the zoo.
His eyes glimmered red, filled with greed.
He had only consumed a few fierce beasts just now and was far from satisfied; he wanted more!
All the zoo's fierce beasts would become his blood meal!
