Chapter 212: Night Spirit

Even though they did not know the origin of little beast, it was not hard to imagine how terrifying it would be after it grew up!

“The background of this little beast is probably far from simple . Take good care of it and it’ll definitely be of great help to you in the future!”

Senior crane said and looked at little beast carefully, her eyes filled with puzzlement .

What was going on here?

This was a little beast that had no universal phenomenon, spectacular colors or even demonic qi when it was born – how did it possess such destructive powers?

Senior crane shook her head and left in confusion .

Before she left, senior crane was still worried and turned around to warn Su Zimo, “By the way, watch over it . Don’t let it run around in the sect . ”

“Don’t worry, senior . ”

Su Zimo nodded . “I’ll guard it during this period of time and not let anything happen to it . ”

Now that Su Zimo thought about it, little beast was basically a newborn that could not even open its eyes . It knew nothing and was at its weakest . If he allowed it to run around the sect, it might end up losing its life .

Senior crane’s lips twitched and she rolled her eyes in a human-like manner . “I’m worried that something might happen to OTHER PEOPLE!”

Su Zimo: “… ”

…

After senior crane left, monkey, spirit tiger and little crane came over .

Earlier on, spirit tiger made fun of monkey and was beaten up by the latter while little crane watched on happily . As such, neither of the three paid attention to the conversation between senior crane and Su Zimo .

After returning, spirit tiger glared at little beast bitterly and thought to himself, “Black bear! I was really done in by you! I’ll remember this and settle it with you after you grow older! Hmph!”

Little beast was truly way too stumpy that the spirit tiger was worried it might be killed with a single smack .

In just a day, little beast was able to open its eyes .

Its eyes were dark and sparkling, exuding intelligence like a pair of dazzling gems .

On that day, monkey, spirit tiger and little crane left the sect and obtained the milk of many demon beasts, placing everything in front of little beast .

Little beast took a sniff without drinking any .

It seemed a little disdainful .

Instead, little beast chose to continue sucking on the fingers of Su Zimo’s right hand .

Perhaps owing to the eggshell, little beast did not get hungry for an entire week .

The most common thing little beast did was to lie on Su Zimo’s lap and sleep soundly while chewing on his right hand’s fingers .

During this period of time, Su Zimo had a rough grasp of little beast’s temperament as well .

It was the closest to him and would stick to him everyday .

Because little beast was extremely sensitive to foreign auras, it would be on guard or even retaliate if any stranger got close to it .

Other than Su Zimo, it was also relatively close to monkey, spirit tiger and little crane .

From that point of view, the three of them did not waste their month for nothing .

At times, the four of them would even play around in the cave abode happily .

Upon seeing that, Su Zimo would always feel a sense of warmth and smile .

After a week, little beast’s teeth grew out . Even though they were small, they were extremely sharp and not weaker than its claws .

However, what puzzled monkey, spirit tiger and little crane was that no matter the type of spirit beast they hunted, little beast would only go up and sniff instead of eating it .

Even if it was hungry, it would choose to suck on Su Zimo’s fingers rather than eat those actual food .

“That’s strange . ”

Su Zimo was perplexed as well .

“Could little beast be vegetarian?”

On second thought, Su Zimo felt that it was not right .

The claws and teeth of little beast did not seem as though they were meant for it to be vegetarian .

These few days, Su Zimo did not cultivate much . Instead, he specially refined a few cauldrons of elixirs and selected the supreme-grade and perfect ones for little beast .

Yet, monkey, spirit tiger and little crane were the ones fighting for it while little beast refused everything .

“That’s strange . ”

Su Zimo tapped on little beast’s head and chided lightly, “Why are you not eating everything, hmm?”

“Heeya!”

Little beast had yet to master demon language and could only cry out in “Heeyas” . Blinking its diamond black eyes, it looked aggrieved .

This day, monkey and little crane went out to hunt .

Su Zimo sat on his stone bed and held spirit stones in both hands, seemingly in cultivation and could not be distracted .

“The opportunity is here!”

The spirit tiger had been cultivating the Void Thunder Manual during this period of time and felt that it had gotten stronger – it was now a Foundation Establishment spirit demon .

Rubbing its paws together, the spirit tiger was prepared to take this opportunity to teach little beast a good lesson . It wanted to impose the image of a mighty, ferocious and unstoppable being in little beast’s heart .

“Black bear, stop sleeping! Wake up!”

The spirit tiger sneaked in front of little beast and growled softly, slapping little beast’s head with a backhand .

Initially asleep, little beast’s body quivered and it stuck out its claws, blocking instinctively!

“Pfft!”

Flashes of blood appeared .

A few bloody holes appeared on the spirit tiger’s paws .

The spirit tiger was dumbfounded .

Little beast was completely awake as well .

“Ow!”

Howling in pain with a pale face, the spirit tiger glared at little beast and gritted its teeth, snarling, “Black bear! You’re not trustworthy at all! Even when you’re asleep, you’re so nervous! You’ve screwed me to death!”

Little beast leaned over in embarrassment and stuck its tongue out to lick the spirit tiger’s paw as a form of comfort .

“It’s completely different from what I imagined! Even after this black bear is born, I’m still the weakest…” The spirit tiger’s face was covered in tears as sadness welled up in him .

Right then, monkey strode into the cave abode covered in blood . It was carrying a leopard on its shoulders, huge like a small mountain and covered in green fur .

Emerald Cloud Leopard!

Su Zimo recognized the leopard at first glance – it was an ancient remnant beast that was extremely strong .

The Emerald Cloud Leopard’s head was smashed in and it was filled with injuries all over, clearly already dead .

Monkey had many wounds on its body as well – it was a devastating battle .

The moment the Emerald Cloud Leopard’s corpse was placed down, little beast suddenly jumped off Su Zimo and ran over to the corpse to sniff .

Shing!

Little beast stretched its claws and cut through the skin and flesh of the Emerald Cloud Leopard easily . It opened its mouth and chomped down on a piece of meat, swallowing it .

Su Zimo narrowed his gaze at the sight of that .

He had been observing little beast during this period of time .

In the past ten days, little beast’s body grew a little more . It was no longer bloated nor similar to a black bear .

Little beast’s head resembled that of a dog’s while its figure resembled a tiger’s . Pitch black, it had no fur and upon retracting its claws, it could walk without a single sound .

Su Zimo examined little beast’s claws and teeth carefully – be it in terms of structure or sharpness, it was something he had never seen before .

Furthermore, little beast had displayed signs of its terrifying combat talent while it was playing in the past couple of days .

That combat talent seemed to be an instinct!

Extremely sharp claws and teeth, keen sense of smell, robust strength, explosive power, terrifying combat talent…

A demon beast as such was practically born to kill!

In front of Su Zimo, monkey, spirit tiger and little crane, little beast was extremely docile and adorable .

However, late in the night, it would stand up quietly and patrol the cave abode, surveying with an icy stare .

Occasionally, little beast would stand outside the cave abode and look up at the full moon, emitting an inexplicable aura that was vicissitude and mysterious – it was like a god walking through the mortal realms at night!

“How about… we call you Night Spirit from now on?” Su Zimo mumbled .
