256 If I Want to Eat Tiger Meat, I’ll Come and Look for You
It was not only Song Shi’s enemies. Those who were on good terms with Song Shi also thought that Song Shi was deliberately hiding.
This was the wisest and most energy-saving method to survive.
There were still three days until the end. They all had a chance to surround him now.
A young man emitting Buddhist light walked out from the side. “We can go over and take a look, but it’s not good to interfere.”
He was Xuan Buzheng. Now that he had some achievements in cultivating the Acalanātha Body, he continued, “Unless we’re prepared to attack the Qian royal family and absorb their points.”
In the Sword Nation team, He Changqing’s body was covered in dazzling starlight. His sword intent was vast, like the stars in the nine heavens.
His brows moved slightly as he opened his eyes. “He actually appeared. Did he do it on purpose or was he forced?”
It was not just Song Shi’s enemies. After receiving the news, many teams secretly approached the place where Song Shi appeared.
The latter did not care at all. He cut a piece of tiger meat out of curiosity and started roasting it.
“I’ve never eaten tiger meat before. I wonder how it tastes.”
Song Shi muttered.
This tiger meat contained a majestic essence and bloomed with a brilliant light in the flames. It looked like gold, especially when a layer of oil appeared, a rich fragrance assaulted his face.
“Exquisite!”
Song Shi’s eyes lit up.
“Human, how dare you kill my brother!”
Amidst a low roar that suppressed its anger, a white tiger walked out. Its cultivation level was at the Golden Core realm and its aura was powerful, causing the nearby plants to tremble.
“Why? Is there a problem? If you’re unhappy, you can kill me to avenge him.”
Song Shi did not turn his head. The tiger he had killed was a demon beast, not an ordinary beast. Otherwise, it would not have such rich Essence Qi.
The White Tiger did not step forward. It was stronger than its brother and was already a Beastmaster. Although this person had restrained his aura, it could still sense that this person’s strength was definitely not simple. It vaguely felt danger radiating from him.
It narrowed its eyes and seemed to have thought of something. It was bewildered. “This person seems to be the fellow that the Human Race of Great Qian has been chasing recently. He has been in the limelight outside and was also the first to reach the top?”
Due to the special nature of the demon race, most of them cultivated their demon bodies and their improvement speed was slow. Therefore, their overall performance was not very good. They had only climbed six thousand steps and had only seen this person’s back from afar. Only now did it remember.
“Big Brother, why would we have to be afraid of this person who is alone?”
Another wild boar demon walked out of the forest and spoke in human language. It was a Foundation Establishment superhuman who had refined a hybrid body. This fellow’s pig nose was very big, and its fangs were like steel knives.
A leopard demon popped its head out from behind the leaves with a mocking expression.
It was not the only one. There were no less than ten demons lurking in the dark. All of them were Foundation Establishment superhumans.
“Don’t be noisy. If you don’t want to kill me, get lost. I already have a demonic tiger to feast on. I don’t want to eat you guys for the time being.”
Song Shi did not like to be disturbed.
“Big Brother, he’s so arrogant. I really want to beat him up.”
A bull demon walked out with steam coming out of its nostrils. Its bell-like eyes were filled with displeasure.
Its strength had reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm. Its cowhide could block Dharma treasures and it was very powerful. Even if this human was a Golden Core Martial King, it was not too afraid.
In general, without Dharma treasures and talismans, many human geniuses would not be able to defeat demon geniuses.
The White Tiger shook its head, “Don’t waste your energy for now. Someone will come and kill him.”
It was much more rational and smarter than the guy Song Shi had killed with a punch. Even though Song Shi was alone, it did not attack rashly.
On the contrary, it shamelessly said, “Your name is Blood-Robed old ghost, right? I won’t kill you, but after you finish eating the meat, remember to give me my brother’s demon cores and body so that I can give the clan an explanation when I go back.”
Song Shi was stunned, “There’s still a use for demon cores but what do you need a broken body for? Why would the demons want to collect corpses?”
The White Tiger said righteously, “That’s right. Our demon race is also learning the rites of burials from you humans. You can’t possibly not agree to such a small request, right?”
“The leftovers are all yours.”
Song Shi could not be bothered to say anything else. He took off the tiger skin in front of the demons and casually refined it into a blanket. Then, he roasted the meat.
“Brother, it smells so good.”
A wild dog jumped out and drooled at the roasted meat. The pig demon beside him also kept licking its tongue.
“Trash, you’re considered the top geniuses of the various races of the demon race. Can’t you control your nature?”
The White Tiger cursed.
Among the demons, those who could reach the Foundation Establishment realm in two hundred years were all geniuses. Those who could cultivate demon cores could be equivalent to human prodigies.
Since they were all geniuses, they should not lose control of their nature and act like beasts.
“It’s hard to change your instinct. If you want to eat, I’ll give some to you.”
Song Shi took a portion of the refined meat and a few tiger bones with the richest essence. He slapped the rest and threw them to the demons.
He wanted to see if these guys would eat their companion.
Seeing a large piece of broken body flying over, the eyes of many demon beasts lit up. They lowered their bodies and wanted to snatch it.
“Hmph, it’s my brother’s broken body, how can it be your turn?”
The White Tiger snorted coldly and opened its mouth. Its bloody mouth expanded, enough to accommodate a house. It swallowed all the broken body parts in one bite.
Its mouth returned to normal as it chewed with a look of enjoyment.
Song Shi was stunned. He turned around and looked at the White Tiger. “I perceived you wrong. You spouted so much nonsense, yet you are the first to eat it!”
“I’m here to collect his corpse and send you on your way, just like how you humans like to bury your old friends.”
The White Tiger spoke righteously, but the changes in its body betrayed it.
It was as if there was something in the remnant of its body. The White Tiger’s entire body shone, and its body expanded slightly. Its ferocious aura became even richer.
In particular, the ‘King’ character between its brows shone brightly and became even deeper. Its aura also became stronger.
“Congratulations, Big Brother. The White Tiger Bloodline has become even stronger. Becoming an Emperor is just around the corner.”
The wild dog demon was the first to suck up to it.
“Who told you to spew so much nonsense?”
The White Tiger slapped the wild dog away with its tail because this fellow had exposed its true intentions. Its true intentions were not to send its brother on his way, but to absorb the white bone blood essence in its brother’s body.
Song Shi was enlightened, but he did not mind. “I suppose this is like making use of trash. Work hard to evolve and recuperate. In the future, I’ll look for you if I want to eat tiger meat again.”
The white tiger’s eyes darkened, “Human, just because I just don’t want to be entangled with you doesn’t mean I’m afraid of you.”
“I know.”
Song Shi sized up the White Tiger’s body. “You’re much stronger than your brother. Your flesh contains abundant spirituality. I think you will be more delicious.”
The White Tiger was furious, but it sensed something and snorted. “Someone is going to deal with you soon. If you die, I’ll collect your corpse. Let’s go!”
It retreated with its subordinates, and at the same time, someone was approaching.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
A group of people with malicious intent descended from the sky and landed one hundred feet away.
“Hehe, you’re still interested in roasting meat. Looks like you really don’t take us seriously.”
Qian Wuyin’s gaze was cold. “Eat. This is your last meal. You can die after you’re full. Don’t die hungry and become a hungry ghost.”
Qian Wuji landed at the head of the group and ordered, “Set up the formation, make sure he can’t escape even if he has wings.”
