Facing the tigress's disappointed gaze, Yubieliu declared her innocence. Hadn't everyone seen through it? It didn't matter whether she admitted it or not.
Something like a shield will break when it's time to do so, there's no other way around it.
"Hmph!" The leather-clad leader snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with brilliance. "Use all your strength to break her shell for me."
Alas, after all, his strength is still weak, and Yu Bie Liu is very worried.
There are nine levels of cultivators: body building, spiritual communication, rotation, consciousness awakening, spirit accumulation, selflessness, unity with the Tao, nine tribulations, and spiritual emperor. Each step requires time to settle.
The first three realms cultivate the body, and the practitioner can strengthen the body and live up to two hundred years; the middle three realms cultivate the spirit, and can walk into the air, control the power of heaven and earth, and live up to five hundred years; the last three realms cultivate the Tao, merge with the Tao to find the true self, understand heaven and earth, know the withering of appearance, and be rejected by heaven and earth in the Nine Tribulations. One must go through ninety-nine eighty-one tribulations and live to be over a thousand years old, as shown in historical records.
At present, she is only in the middle stage of the Spiritual Realm, while the mercenary group in front of her has three people in the Rotation Realm, several people in the Spiritual Body Building Realm, and the leather-clad leader is at the peak of the Rotation Realm.
As for spirit beasts, they don't have as many fancy names as humans do. They are divided into nine levels, corresponding to the nine realms of cultivators. The blue-eyed spotted tiger in front of him, that is, the tigress, is a mid-stage third-level spirit beast.
Like spirit beasts, magic weapons, elixirs, formations, talismans, etc., are all based on the ninth level.
"Alas..." Yu Bieliu sighed deeply. No matter how much she knew or how much she could do, cultivation could only be accumulated bit by bit.
"...Huh?" He sighed in surprise before he could even finish it. His leg felt itchy, and there was something moving around.
Yu Bie Liu pulled his hand out from under the tiger's claws, reached in, grabbed the mischievous little thing, and pulled it out.
The fluffy little tiger opened its round black bean-like eyes and looked at Yu Bie Liu blankly. It shook its limbs and claws, and when it found that it could not touch the solid ground, it barked at Yu Bie Liu.
"Ouch!" I'm so fierce!
Yubieliu: "..." It's over, it's over, my restless little heart! No, hold it in, you have to remember, if you are a hundred thousand years old, you will not be touched by such a little thing!
"Awoo awoo..." The little tiger flapped its short limbs.
"So cute!" Yubieliu kissed him, "Little Naofu is so cute..."
Tigress: "..." Bastard, that's my son, my son, you, you, you put my son down! The tigress raised her claws and aimed them at Yubieliu's head. She hesitated twice and didn't dare to hit him.
After all, you are the savior of this mother and child. Never mind, son, thank you for your hard work.
Little Naofu looked at his mother, who turned her head away and didn't look at him, and continued in confusion: "...Ah."
"Woo, my old man's girlish heart..." Yu Bie Liu instantly lost himself in the pleasure of petting the tiger.
The leather-clad leader snorted coldly, gritted his teeth, and lashed out with a fist. Laugh and make noises, but once he broke through this defense, he'd see if she could still laugh!
Then, this strange confrontation scene of several people attacking and one person stroking the tiger lasted for a whole incense stick of time.
By the time a water arrow finally landed on the tigress, all the members of the mercenary group were already panting, looking pale, and looking as if they had exhausted their spiritual power.
The tigress stood up, protecting Yubieliu who was holding the cub, and looked around vigilantly.
The leather-clad leader turned around and spat, glaring at Yu Bie Liu fiercely. "How dare you, damned girl, lie to me!" "Is this what you call running out of spiritual energy?" Do you have any misunderstandings about running out of spiritual energy?
Their entire mercenary group had used up all their spiritual energy to barely break this shield. It was just a tortoise shell! Despite this, the leather-clad leader was even more excited. Such a powerful magical weapon would soon be his!
Picking up the scimitar that fell to the ground because the restraints disappeared, the leather-clad leader turned his neck and strode over. He could handle the next thing alone.
"Aohou!" The tigress growled, her eyes full of determination. Even if she couldn't protect her children, she would fight to the last second.
At this time, Yu Bie Liu, who was no longer suppressed, sat up and excitedly tossed the little tiger up, caught it, tossed it up, and caught it... The little tiger, who already knew that the girl was playing with it, howled with joy.
The tigress, watching this scene from the corner of her eye, was filled with turmoil! Can't we really consider the situation? Even being heartless has to have a limit, right? My son is ignorant, and you don't understand either?
Forget it, there’s no way to escape anyway. After it bites off a piece of flesh from this person, she will drag her son and the girl to blow herself up. No one will get anything!
"You are overestimating yourself!" The leather-clad leader gripped his scimitar tightly, exerted force on his feet, and leaped into the air. His spiritual power condensed on the scimitar and chopped it down!
He actually wanted to kill the tigress with his knife.
"Roar!" The tigress roared, raised her claws and was about to rush forward, but the next second, her tail was grabbed.
Grab it... grab it... grab it...
Knowing that it was Yubieliu who was pulling it, the tigress stopped her charge for fear of hurting her.
but……
You're mentally broken, you know? You can refuse to help, your cultivation is too low, you're in the spiritual realm; you can mess around, you can play with my son... Bah, you can play with my son, you'll die anyway; can you, can you please not make trouble! Huh?
"Aunt Tiger, don't be anxious..." Yu Bieliu hugged the little tiger, feeling helpless.
The knife flashed fiercely, and was about to chop off her head. The tigress was so angry that she almost laughed. Come on, can you show me how to stop being impatient?
Suddenly, a golden light appeared above the tigress's head, blocking the leather-clad captain's knife. Upon closer inspection, it was a shield emitting bright golden light, protecting the tigress and Yu Bie Liu.
What?! The leather-clad captain was filled with shock, but before he could figure out what was going on, a sharp blade force burst out from the golden shield and hit him fiercely.
A deep cut was slashed on the chest of the leather-clad leader, who flew back more than ten meters, fell to the ground, and spit out blood.
His mind was filled with questions. Where had the shield come from? What was going on? Wasn't he going to kill the tigress? Most importantly, why did the force of his own sword strike him?
"Um... Uncle, I'm sorry, I have several defensive magic weapons like the Forbidden Evil!" Yu Bie Liu said with some guilt, "For example, this golden light shield, not only can it defend, but it can also reflect half of the damage! How is it, isn't it amazing?"
"Puff!" The leather-clad leader spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
Congratulations, you triggered a critical hit. The enemy spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground seriously injured.
The tigress stared at the scene in amazement, almost kneeling down to Yu Bie Liu. This operation was really... excellent!
So why didn't you tell me earlier? Will I die if I give you a hint? I even let you play with my son... Pah, I was about to blow myself up and you just told me, don't you deserve a beating? (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
