Chapter 92: Protection, the companionship of the Emperor's auspicious beast and being needed

Looking at the little guy eating with gusto, Xu Tiance felt that it would be nice if time could stop at this moment.

"You...why are you looking at me like that?"

"Little auspicious beast, let's have a discussion."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor's auspicious beast stopped eating the delicious food and subconsciously took two steps back in fear.

As far as I can remember, whenever this guy says this, someone is bound to be in trouble.

"You, you, you, what do you want to do?"

"I'm just talking to you. There's no need to be so wary of me."

As Xu Tiance was about to try to move forward, the Emperor's auspicious beast turned around and ran away, hiding behind a big tree and quietly poking its head out.

The Emperor's Auspicious Beast knew about the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. If this person used the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's tricks to drag him into the small dark room, he would be isolated and helpless and would be dead.

[Is this reaction a bit excessive?]

Xu Tiance slapped his forehead suddenly. They both shared memories, so the little auspicious beast must be well aware of his previous actions and probably thought that he was trying to trick it.

"If you need to be that far away from me to feel safe, then this is what I'm going to negotiate with you?"

"What do you want to discuss?"

"If I'm not mistaken, you should know that I'm being hunted."

The Emperor Beast nodded, "I know. The people chasing you are evil soul masters. They are very bad and very powerful, and very difficult to deal with."

"Yes, Little Auspicious Beast is right. I suspect they are still searching for me in the Star Dou Great Forest.

I have lost my two elders, and if I were to meet them alone, I would be in great danger. If I die, you will have no delicious food to eat."

"Ah... then what do you mean?"

"You grew up in the Star Dou Great Forest. You should know how to get me out of the Star Dou Great Forest safely, right?"

"I know. I have a way to get you out safely, but why should I help you? If you leave, I won't have any delicious food to eat.

If you stay, not only can I protect you, but I can also have delicious food every day, killing two birds with one stone."

"Damn, damn! If I stay here any longer, many people will suffer.

And who knows, there might be many powerful people coming to the Star Dou Great Forest to look for me. You don't want the Star Dou Great Forest to have no peace from now on, do you? "

The Emperor Beast lowered his head and thought for a long time, "Give me a little time to think it over."

"That's fine. I guess those evil spirit masters are still out there searching for me. It's best for me to stay here with you and avoid the limelight. Now, little auspicious beast, I'm sorry to bother you from now on."

"No... You can't let me protect you in vain."

Xu Tiance was stunned for a moment, then he said in a fake tone, "Little guy, learn something good from my memory. Don't learn the tricks of collecting protection fees, okay?"

It frantically searched through Xu Tiance's memory. The so-called protection fee seemed to be the currency circulated in the human world that he gave it, and then it would stop bullying him.

"But, I didn't mean to bully him. I don't want human currency either. I just wanted more delicious food."

Looking at the silly and cute appearance of the Emperor's auspicious beast, Xu Tiance really wanted to hold such a cute little auspicious beast in his arms. Its golden fur grew so well, it must be very easy to rub.

He walked straight to the Emperor's auspicious beast and handed it a specially crafted vial filled with crimson-gold blood. "What is this...?"

"Here's your protection fee. It's ok to collect my protection fee in the future, but you can't use this to bully others."

"I don't want other people's blood, I only want yours."

"So good." Xu Tiance smiled slightly and took the opportunity to touch its little head.

The imperial auspicious beast let out a "wool" and was about to get angry with a fierce look. I am the most noble imperial auspicious beast in the Star Dou Great Forest, and you dare to touch my head.

But when it caught a glimpse of the fragrant blood in the small bottle out of the corner of its eye, it felt embarrassed to eat and take at the same time.

[Forget it, since it's delicious, I won't bother with you humans.]

Xu Tiance looked at the imperial auspicious beast in front of him. It looked innocent and adorable, but in fact, it was only over ten thousand years old, but it was already comparable to an ordinary hundred thousand year old soul beast.

Moreover, it is not restricted by fate and does not have the bottleneck of natural tribulation that is destined for other soul beasts. It can live forever as long as it wants.

What a pity, once he fell in love, he was so deep that he ended up choosing the path of no return, namely sacrifice.

"Little auspicious beast, take your time eating. I'm going to start practicing. After I finish practicing, I'll give you something delicious."

"Yeah, don't worry. I'm here. No one or any spirit beast will hurt you. Just practice without worry."
-
Before I knew it, ten days had passed.

Xu Tiance sat cross-legged on the jade platform, his pupils of life and death suddenly opened, his yin and yang pupils slowly rotated, and blue and purple light dust lingered around his body in distinct patterns.

At this moment, he felt as if he had established some kind of connection with nature, merged into one with the surrounding environment, and entered a state of "harmony between man and nature."

Without using his eyes, Xu Tiance could sense all the changes around him. His breathing seemed to blend into the rhythm of plant growth, and his pulse seemed to turn into the gentle hum of a stream flowing over pebbles.

Beside him was a furry imperial beast. The little fellow was tired from playing and was sleeping soundly on his thighs.

He felt that his perception seemed to be able to spread to everything around him, or in other words, every blade of grass, every flower and every stone in his environment, all had some kind of connection with him in the dark, and everything was the most wonderful and perfect fit.

After practicing intensively for a period of time, Xu Tiance finally realized how huge an improvement the Eye of Life and Death had on his strength.

He is not a spiritual soul master, and his spiritual power training is one point where he is inferior to Huo Yuhao.

However, with the development of the Eye of Life and Death, this dilemma no longer exists.

Now, his mental power has surpassed the improvement of soul power, which is equivalent to the mental power of a seven-ring soul saint. And with the integration of the power of destiny, his future practice of mental power will be twice as effective with half the effort.

Xu Tiance opened his eyes, took a long breath, and ended his training.

He reached out and gently touched the little head of the imperial beast.

After spending some time together, the little guy is no longer as wary of him as he was at the beginning. The little guy's main focus is on companionship and protection.

It was precisely because of the daily interactions over the past few days that Xu Tiance was able to somewhat understand why the little guy was so yearning for the outside world.

Although the Emperor Beast has a long and enduring life, its life is also lonely, boring and tedious. When it opens its eyes, it sees an endless dense forest, and the same is true when it closes its eyes.

The dominant beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest also have their own lives and will not always pay attention to and accompany it.

All soul beasts kept their distance from it. It had no playmates and no one of its kind, so it could only live alone.

Day after day, it seems like the end can be seen at a glance.
