Fang Ruotang paused, unsure of what to do, and asked the person next to her.
"Who were those people just now? Were they transformed demon beasts or human cultivators? Should we go and save that little demon beast?"
Du Zhong said, "They should be a professional demon-hunting team. We'd better not get involved. This kind of thing happens every day among the demons, and we can't possibly manage it all."
Du Zhong disagreed with meddling in such matters, and the other three shared the same view.
Rong Xing was simple-minded; he simply didn't want Fang Ruotang to provoke the young boy.
If they really started interacting, and Fang Ruotang wanted to keep this little thing, he couldn't stop her. The best solution was to simply cut off all contact.
"Well! What a pity! That boy is quite handsome. I hope he runs fast enough and doesn't get caught by these people."
Fang Ruotang glanced worriedly in the direction they ran, but did not insist on going her own way.
Rong Xing took Fang Ruotang's hand and walked in another direction.
At the same time, I am filled with worry.
Are there many of these incompletely transformed demonic beasts in the Southern Territory?
"There are so many! These incompletely transformed demon beasts are simply not powerful enough! Compared to us humans, they are at the Nascent Soul stage or below. Moreover, this is the territory of the demon race, and many powerful demons, even if they can fully transform, like to retain some demon race characteristics. When we arrive at the demon race's gathering place, you will see all sorts of demon beast forms."
Du Zhong casually agreed, completely unaware of Rong Xing's inner worries.
He secretly decided that when he changed shifts tomorrow, he would tell the others so that these monsters wouldn't take advantage of the situation without their knowledge.
"However, the one we just saw, judging from its ears and tail, should be a leopard. And although it was injured, its fur was still shiny, indicating that it had a good life before. Its clan should have some influence in this area. I just don't know why it went out alone and was targeted by the demon-hunting team."
Du Zhong thought for a moment and then casually offered his guess.
But he didn't rush over to save the person based on this speculation.
After all, even if they meant well, the other party wouldn't believe them.
Fang Ruotang asked with bright eyes, "Do you think I have a chance to form a contract with this kind of young beast? If I do, can I keep it in its juvenile form forever?"
Du Zhong choked for a moment, then looked at Fang Ruotang speechlessly.
"If someone asked you to stay the way you were when you were three years old and be their pet, would your parents agree? Would you do it yourself?"
Fang Ruotang puffed out her cheeks, understood what she meant, rolled her eyes at Du Zhong, and stopped thinking about the young beasts. She would rather look at the demon beasts that liked to retain their demon race characteristics!
She's already a mature demon, she can definitely make her own decisions. What if she just wants to be her pet? Wasn't that how Da Mei clung to her back then?
Although the Black Wind Demon Forest was a training ground, Fang Ruotang and her group did not linger there. It posed no challenge to them, and they did not want to venture deeper into the Black Wind Demon Forest for the time being.
After leaving the Black Wind Demon Forest, we arrived at Black Peak City.
Fang Ruotang was completely opened up to a new world and understood what Du Zhong meant by the monsters that liked to retain their demonic characteristics.
Once inside the city, I was greeted by adorable creatures of all sizes.
Even the snake, which she had always found terrifying, seemed adorable at this moment.
With a human face and a snake's body, she was a very cute little girl, only about seven or eight years old. Her peach blossom eyes smiled as she observed her surroundings, displaying an innocent and adorable appearance.
Moreover, her snake tail wasn't the terrifying black color, it was white.
The snake's tip can be raised high, carrying a small basket decorated with flowers.
The whole image is just so adorable.
Fang Ruotang couldn't help but glance at them a few more times, which caught the little girl's attention. She looked at Fang Ruotang and her group. Her strength was too low to discern their cultivation levels, but she sensed that they had no ill intentions, so she smiled at her in a friendly manner.
Fang Ruotang's eyes widened instantly, and she excitedly grabbed Rong Xing, saying, "Did you see that? She smiled at me! She's so cute!"
Rong Xing paused for a moment and looked at the little girl.
He didn't have much of an emotion, but if Fang Ruotang wanted to raise a pet like this, he wouldn't try to stop him. As long as it wasn't a particularly good-looking young boy, he could accept it.
Just as Fang Ruotang was about to give in, the little girl left, and Fang Ruotang changed her target. A girl with yellow furry ears walked past them and caught Fang Ruotang's attention again.
She grabbed Rong Xing's arm again, "Look! This one is cute too, and look at her nose, her tail, hahaha, isn't she a dog!"
The little girl had already walked past, but now she turned back and glared at Fang Ruotang with a fierce look.
"And what are you? Our ancestors were golden-haired lions, but in this generation, the bloodline has become diluted."
[A golden retriever?]
[A mythical beast, um... also a mount, see the picture!]
Even the little mirror can't say for sure.
Fang Ruotang looked at the picture directly. It was indeed majestic, with yellow fur that made it impervious to swords and spears. It even looked a lot like a lion and ate people.
but……
She looked at the adorable little girl in front of her, wondering if it was because she was only seven or eight years old that she lacked any imposing presence.
She really isn't a descendant of the Golden Retriever, though she doesn't look like one.
"What do you mean? Are you looking down on me? Do you think I'm some kind of mongrel? Let me tell you, I'm not. My dad told me that my ancestors were golden-haired lions. Sooner or later, I will revert to my ancestral lineage and open your eyes to a whole new world."
Fang Ruotang: ...
Indeed, when you're out in the world, you have to give yourself your own identity.
She thought for a moment, and seeing the little girl's pouting and aggrieved look, she tried to comfort her.
"But I think you're cute just the way you are."
"What's so cute about it? I'm very brave."
As the little girl spoke, she flashed a set of sharp teeth.
Then, it extended its five claws and transformed into a beast.
Looking at the little girl who was only up to her waist, Fang Ruotang found it hard to sincerely praise her for being amazing, even though she could see the longing in the little girl's big, watery eyes.
"How about that, scared now?"
Seeing Fang Ruotang staring blankly at her, the little girl thought she had intimidated her, so she turned her neck and proudly walked away.
Fang Ruotang grabbed her by the back of her collar and pulled her back.
The little girl struggled to break free, her face showing fear. "What are you doing? Don't even think about bullying me. My family lives in the city, and my father is the city guard. If you dare to bully me, my father won't let you get away with it."
"I won't bully you. I think you're quite cute. How about you consider coming with me? I have a lot of good stuff here!"
Fang Ruotang took out the spirit beast fruit that Da Mei usually liked to eat, stuffed one into her hand, and said with a smile, "You can go back and discuss it with your parents. If you are interested, come and find me. With your nose, you should be able to find people easily! My name is Fang Ruotang, and I am the sect leader of Tianyi Sect. You won't lose out if you form a contract with me."
