Main Protagonist: Powerful, devoted, and wealthy Beast Emperor (top) Gorgeous, gentle, nine-tailed red fox (bottom)
Supporting Protagonist: A fluffy, chubby golden nine-tailed fox cub.
The fighting outside was getting bigger and bigger, and Shen Yulou was a little worried and wanted to go and see.
"Come here, let Daddy play a game with you."
Chi Yuan hooked his little finger around Shen Yulou's finger to reassure him, and then started playing a game of kissing and cuddling with the little dumpling on his thigh.
With the combined flames of the Vermilion Bird, the Fire Qilin, and the Crimson Flame Golden Lion, Shen Yulou felt a burning heat despite the perpetually cold snow-covered mountain.
The fierce battlefield was contained within their flames.
"So many people have come?"
No wonder it took so long.
Through the firelight, Shen Yulou saw a dense crowd, roughly four or five thousand people.
In the chaos, it was impossible to distinguish between people from the martial arts world and those from the demonic sect.
It's possible that both are true; it's unlikely that a single faction could field so many people.
His silver clothes fluttered in the mountain wind, and the leaping flames cast a long and ghostly shadow of him.
The Vermilion Bird continuously spewed flames down to the ground from the highest point in the sky, while the Nine-Headed Serpent and the Qilin's various colored attack waves merged with the flames.
"Roar! Roar!"
The Crimson Flame Golden Lion Beast's long tail lashed out like a whip, piercing precisely into the pursuer's chest.
With a sudden flick of its thick, powerful tail, it lifted the enemy's body high into the air.
It kept poking at them, and the long tail strung them all together, forming a terrifying "meat skewer".
The flames that erupted simultaneously from their tails instantly burned the "meat on the skewers" completely, filling the air with a pungent smell of burnt meat and blood.
The Taotie bared its fangs and brandished its claws amidst the firestorm.
Its massive body rampaged through the crowd, knocking enemies off balance and causing them to break bones and snap.
The rough holes on its body emitted nauseating poisonous gas, and the dark green poisonous fog spread rapidly.
Taotie followed behind, picking up the scraps, its eyes fixed on enemies who had been poisoned by Taotie or injured by the Crimson Flame Golden Lion.
With a single, gaping mouth, it swallowed them whole, weapons and all. As it chewed, blood spilled from the corners of its mouth. Its greedy and ferocious appearance chilled the hearts of the surrounding enemies.
Judging by their ferocity, they must be ferocious beasts; their fighting style is completely different from that of the mythical beasts around them.
Shen Yulou looked at the mythical beasts, whose style was much softer; their killing actions were more elegant and peaceful.
"Okay, stop waterskiing and finish this quickly so you can get some rest tonight."
He also needs to catch the bad guy who stole his grandma for his son.
Upon hearing Shen Yulou's order, the contracted beasts delayed for a while before intensifying their attack.
When the flames died down, there was no trace of a person left, and not even a hair remained; it was completely bare.
Looks like we'll have to find a new place tomorrow...
Such obvious signs of combat would be easily detected.
Given the usual pattern of assassinations between the martial arts world and the demonic sect, the next wave, the wave after that, and the wave after that are probably already on their way.
If we stay here any longer, they'll wipe out everyone in the martial arts world and the demonic sect.
If they suddenly appeared while he and Chi Yuan were traveling, harassing them wave after wave, that would be quite annoying.
This is such a difficult problem to solve.
With a sigh behind his back, Shen Yulou turned around and, casting aside his worries, followed the contracted beasts into the cave.
"Chi Yuan, don't you feel as insecure as being in a cave without a door, like being covered by a blanket but not your feet at night?"
Shen Yulou looked at the wide-open cave entrance and turned to joke with Chi Yuan.
"feel."
Chi Yuan nodded in affirmation.
"Next time we'll install a door in this cave, and it will be much more comfortable to live in."
Cave: This is the first time I've heard of someone offering to install a door for me.
Following Shen Yulou's words, Chi Yuan humorously gestured to him, and the two quickly burst into laughter again.
"Okay, okay, stop laughing, time for bed!"
Blink at the baby, and the clever little one immediately nods.
Sleep, catch bad guys.
He eagerly nestled into his fathers' arms, ready to begin his demonstration.
