In a frigid apocalypse, I went on a shopping spree with the reborn.

A flock of red eagles soared through the sky.

Jiang Qingyue stood on the back of the lead red eagle, hands behind his back, looking quite pleased: "It's so good to be stronger. I don't feel cold at all at 10,000 meters in the air, and I don't have to worry about falling and dying."

Zhang Meng sat casually on the back of a red eagle, quietly watching Jiang Qingyue put on an act.

"Don't you feel comfortable?" Jiang Qingyue tilted her head slightly. "Look at this strong wind blowing on your face..."

He was only halfway through his sentence when a gust of wind blew his already long hair into his mouth.

"Pah!" Jiang Qingyue flicked her bangs. She hadn't paid attention to her hair lately. When she had time, she would have to get it shaved into a buzz cut.

Little Grey and Yan Bao huddled on the back of a red eagle, the two little guys discussing things in hushed tones.

Yan Bao: "Master, aren't you cold like this?"

Little Grey: "Master is strong now, so he might not be afraid of the cold."

Yan Bao tilted her head, her rabbit-like face full of doubt: "But I saw that she had goosebumps on her arms."

"..." Jiang Qingyue in front was speechless, thinking she couldn't hear him?

Without making a sound, he tugged at his sleeve. He was still not strong enough. At only 10,000 meters above the ground, with a wind speed of 200 kilometers per hour, he already felt a bit cold.

Look at Zhang Meng, she's perfectly fine. In the end, it's because she's a bit weak.

Now look at the others.

In her past life, Long Jiuxing was like a wooden stake, sitting on the back of a red eagle, cultivating with her eyes closed. The red eagle carrying her flew very carefully and steadily, for fear of angering this expert.

In her previous life, Zhao Mingyue lay on the back of a red eagle, pulling a few feathers over to cover her eyes, making it appear as if she were asleep. In reality, she held a sphere in her hand, constantly absorbing energy from the sphere into her body.

In her past life, Nangong Zhao was dressing up, and as she dressed up more and more exquisitely, her aura also increased.

In her previous life, Shen Yi was studying a network diagram, which Jiang Qingyue couldn't understand.

In his previous life, Wang Longhua was sharpening his large sword.

In her past life, Chen Tangtang took out a stone mortar and pestle, added different ingredients, and pounded and pounded. Then she took out the pounded mixture and rolled it by hand into pills that looked like elixirs.

Huang Yali took out a miniature chessboard, held the white pieces in her left hand and the black pieces in her right hand, and played against herself with great enjoyment.

On the back of the last red eagle, the two old kings huddled together and slept soundly.

Every now and then there are sounds of teeth grinding and sleep talking, and the snoring is deafening, like the croaking of frogs.

"Am I getting too cocky?" Jiang Qingyue pretended to be an expert for a while, but after seeing that everyone except Lao Wang was busy, she realized that something was wrong.

He jumped onto the neck of the red eagle leader and began to cultivate as well.

First, it absorbed the slight resentment emanating from everyone, and then it circulated its cultivation technique to absorb the power of ice and snow.

When Yanbao and Little Grey saw their owner start to study hard, they stopped chirping.

Little Grey is working hard to lay eggs.

Yan Bao took out the beef and beef balls and ate them in small bites.

Zhang Meng smiled slightly. The younger generation is so outstanding and hardworking. Does that mean that there is still some hope for District 8?

His gaze shifted to the two old men, still drooling in their sleep, and he felt that this hope might have to be somewhat diminished.

The Crimson Eagle clan is actually quite strong, and few dare to provoke them, especially when they appear in groups. Most weaker races will avoid them at all costs.

There are occasional exceptions, though.

A winged tiger, seeing so much meat flying overhead, leaped up without a second thought.

Flying ahead, the tiger roared, "This tree was planted by the tiger, this road was opened by the tiger. If you want to pass, stay... stay..."

The tiger's eyes were full of regret. What did it leave behind?

I clearly memorized it before, so why did I forget it at the crucial moment?

Jiang Qingyue opened her eyes: "Mimi, you've messed with the wrong person, you know that?"

The big tiger roared at Jiang Qingyue, proudly raising its head: "Anyway... this road is blocked."

"Don't think I'm afraid of you just because there are more of you. With just a few of you little brats, I'm only seven-tenths full after one meal."

"As for you? You're not even enough to fill my teeth."

"Really? Let me see how big your gaps are."

Jiang Qingyue didn't use the Snow Concealment Bow. He leaped off the back of the Crimson Eagle and, without any fancy moves, slapped the tiger's head hard across the face.

With a thud, the giant tiger plummeted from mid-air, tucked its tail between its legs, and ran away.

"Heh." Jiang Qingyue shook his hand. This guy's skin is really thick.

"You guys go first, I'll catch up later."

After saying those words, she deliberately landed in the jungle.

"Stop right there! You're blocking my way. You think you can get away without leaving behind hundreds of pounds of flesh?"

The tiger tucked its tail between its legs, folded its wings, and ran wildly through the jungle.

She ran and cried, waaaaaah~ That's exactly how her mother taught her, why is this different from what her mother said?

Although Jiang Qingyue only has two legs, she is as fast as the wind.

The key is that she's not afraid of pain. Occasionally, if she doesn't turn in time and crashes into a tree, the tree will crack but she'll be perfectly fine.

By charging around recklessly, they turned the entire forest upside down.

"Stop right there! I see you've got some nerve. Come on, let's fight. Show me your skills. If you lose, I'll give you a quick death. If you win, I'll let you go."

The big tiger ran while calculating: Is this correct?

If I had won, would I need you to let me go? Shouldn't I be the one to be magnanimous and let you off the hook?

It wanted to turn around and say something, but the burning pain on its face made it realize how terrifying the thing behind it was, so it could only keep running wildly.

Jiang Qingyue was also helpless. Her speed was actually not slow. Although she was not a speed specialist, her strength had improved and her physical fitness was there. Top experts have almost no weaknesses.

Unfortunately, these two-wheeled vehicles are no match for the four-wheeled ones.

She could use the Snow Concealment Bow to shoot from a distance, but she wanted to hone her combat skills. It would be a waste to kill someone she had finally met who was evenly matched.

One man and one tiger, you flee and I chase.

One cannot catch up.

One that can't be shaken off.

Jiang Qing became even more ruthless: "A test of endurance, is it?"

Let's have a competition then, it'll be a good opportunity to practice our endurance.

"Why is she still chasing after me?" The big tiger was on the verge of tears.

It tried its best, really tried its best, but the consumption was too great. If this continues, it will be dragged down and killed.

"Could you please stop chasing me? I'm Mimi, can I just call you that?"

Meow~

After the tiger finished roaring, its face turned red, whether from exhaustion or embarrassment, it was hard to tell.

"Where's the meat?" Jiang Qingyue wasn't someone who could be appeased with a cutesy answer. "Give me several thousand kilograms of meat, and I'll let you go."

The big tiger stumbled. It was just a cub; where would it get so much meat?

Even including skin and bones, it doesn't weigh more than a few thousand pounds.

"Could you make it less?"

Jiang Qingyue almost lost her composure upon hearing this. Whose silly tiger has run out here?

"Then stop right there, and I'll let you go if I take less meat, okay?"

Upon hearing this, the tiger immediately sped up. What a joke! It wasn't stupid. If it really stopped, it wouldn't be satisfied with just a few dozen pounds of meat.

"Oh ho!" Jiang Qingyue chuckled. Was he still not completely stupid after all?

Then let's keep chasing and see who collapses from exhaustion first.

"If you keep chasing me, I'll call for my mom!"

Jiang Qingyue: "Go ahead and shout! Shout loudly! You don't have enough meat for that."

"My mom is very strong."

Jiang Qingyue: "That's perfect, I love killing strong people."

"You? What a joke! My mom is the strongest; no one can beat her."

"I'm serious, stop chasing me, or I'm going to unleash my ultimate move."

"A powerful move?" Jiang Qingyue immediately became alert. Their strengths were already evenly matched, and if he were careless, he might end up suffering an unexpected defeat today.

She quickly took out the Snow Concealment Bow, and ice arrows condensed.

Before she could even fire it, a huge piece of tiger meat flew from in front of her and almost smeared her face.

Jiang Qingyue quickly grabbed the meat, her lips twitching. Was this the ultimate move that silly tiger had mentioned?

It's definitely not light; it's a powerful move weighing dozens of kilograms.

When I looked up, the silly tiger had already disappeared.

"Alright then." Jiang Qingyue didn't insist anymore. She still wanted to practice today. If she couldn't, she would go find the natives of District 93 to practice with.

He put away the Snow Concealment Bow, picked up the meat, and hurried on his way.

They soon caught up with the herd of red eagles ahead and sat back on the leader's back.

Yan Bao's eyes lit up when she saw the piece of meat: "Master, let's have some skewers!"

She hopped from Little Grey to Jiang Qingyue's side, picked up a small piece of raw meat with her paw, ate it in one bite, and looked completely satisfied.

"This is delicious."

Jiang Qingyue asked with a smile, "As delicious as beef balls?"

"It tastes even better than beef balls!" Yan Bao cried out, tears streaming down her face. "Master, hurry, hurry, grilled skewers, hot pot, anything is fine."

"Right away, right away." Jiang Qingyue patted the red eagle's head. "Fly lower, fly slower."

After the altitude and speed decreased, Jiang Qingyue took out the grill from her spatial backpack and sat on the giant back of the Crimson Eagle, starting by skewering meat.

Yan Bao helped out from the side, sprinkling salt and cumin every now and then.

The little guy can't handle spicy food, so Jiang Qingyue didn't add any chili peppers.

"Is it ready to eat?"

"no."

"They should be ripe by now, right?"

"Wait a little longer."

"Is it cooked now?"

"It's ready, try it, be careful it's hot."

Yan Bao eagerly grabbed a string of peacocks and just as he put it in his mouth, all the red eagles stopped abruptly.

A huge shadow enveloped everyone. At that moment, whether they were playing chess or sleeping, everyone immediately stood up, weapons appearing in their hands.

Jiang Qingyue looked up and saw, good heavens, an outrageously large tiger with enormous wings spread out in front of her, blocking her way.

A smaller tiger was following beside him, with a dent on one side of its rear end and the wound not yet scabbed over.

The little tiger saw the meat skewers and roared, "It's her! It's her! She stole my butt meat!"

Then she saw that her meat had turned into skewers and she burst into tears.

As soon as Yan Bao saw the old man arrive, he didn't care whether it was hot or not and hurriedly slurped up the skewers one after another, afraid that if he ate too late, the skewers would be snatched away.

Little Grey quickly came to his older sister's side: "Master, don't worry about hitting her, I will protect her."

"Good boy." Yan Bao patted Little Grey with her paw and stuffed a meat skewer into Little Grey's mouth.

Little Grey was initially modest, saying, "Big sister, I don't need it, I've already reached maturity..." Before he could finish speaking, he was overwhelmed by the aroma of the meat in his mouth:

"...Actually, eating something is fine too."

"One at a time, or all at once?" Jiang Qingyue took out the Snow Concealment Bow and the milk-stewed beef.

This tiger is very strong, but even with her combat power doubled, she's not someone you can't mess with.

Moreover, Zhang Meng was there to oversee the operation.

The big tiger looked at the eager Jiang Qingyue, and then glanced at several people who were about the same level as Jiang Qingyue.

Finally, it looked at Zhang Meng, its eyes narrowed, and its tail tucked slightly between its legs.

The little tiger looked at its mother, and wondered why her actions were exactly the same as when it was scared.

Impossible. My tiger mom is the most powerful tiger in the world. How could she be afraid?

It must be that its tail is itchy, absolutely.

It arrogantly threatened Jiang Qingyue, saying, "Fight if you want, are you scared of me? All of you combined aren't even enough to fill the gaps between my daughter and my teeth."

Tiger Mom glanced at her little cub, her face full of black lines. "Stop talking, stop talking, silly child, can't you see I haven't said anything?"

"Hey, give me an answer if you're going to call or not?" Jiang Qingyue was holding a pot of stewed beef with milk, unsure whether to eat it or not.

Tiger Mom kept her eyes on Zhang Meng, and seeing that she was still leaning lazily against the red eagle's back, showing no intention of making a move, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He said to Jiang Qingyue, "You just hit my little brat."

The little tiger added, "She not only hit me, but she also turned my meat into skewers, and they're all cooked."

The tiger mother glared at her cub. She wasn't blind; she could see that it was cooked and could smell the aroma.

Didn't we mess with a tough opponent?

"What do you want? Send me a few more meals of meat?" Jiang Qingyue stared at the big tiger's fat body.

After Yan Bao ate the skewers, his aura noticeably increased; this stuff is even more nourishing than beef.

If the cub's blood is so nourishing, then the adult tiger's blood must be even more nourishing.

Maybe after eating Yanbao, she will fully enter her mature stage.

That intense gaze sent a chill down Tiger Mom's spine, and she forced herself not to take a step back: "You hit my cub, so you have to take responsibility for it."

"How will you take responsibility?"

"I have to make it my mount, otherwise, I'll fight to the death here today and never let you go."

"?" Jiang Qingyue looked puzzled.

The little tiger looked at its mother with a confused expression and asked softly, "Mom, didn't we come here for revenge?"

"Weren't you here to take back those few dozen pounds of my flesh?"

Tiger Mom said irritably, "What are you fighting over? They're all cooked."

Little Tiger: "Can't you just kill them and give me some nourishment?"

The tiger mother slapped him with her paw: "Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about? That's your master, what's with all this talk about killing? We are a gentle and kind herbivorous race, and we have never liked fighting and killing."

"Huh?" The little tiger was stunned by the pat.

Jiang Qingyue glanced at Zhang Meng and realized that this was indeed the benefit of having a powerful protector.

Putting away the stewed beef with milk, and looking at the relaxed Zhang Meng and the wary Tiger Mom, Jiang Qingyue pressed her advantage: "You've got a good plan."

"If you don't raise your own child, send him to me and I'll raise him for you."

"Did you pay for their food? Did you pay them for their hard work? Are you expecting me to support them?"

The little tiger shook its head, finally understanding Jiang Qingyue's words, then jumped up and down in anger: "I'll be your mount and you still don't want me? I'm a flying tiger! Look closely, I have wings, I can fly! I'm no weaker than you, how dare you not want me?"

"Shut up." The tiger mom gave the cub another swipe of her paw.

Seeing that his son had chickened out and shut up, he then asked Jiang Qingyue, "How much do you want for food?"

Jiang Qingyue made an outrageous demand: "That's a lot. Your little brat won't be able to reach maturity for many more years, and the manpower and resources spent during that time will be enormous."

"Just give me 30 years' worth of cultivation resources, based on a 30-year timeframe."

"This doesn't even include my compensation for my hard work. You know, raising a child is no easy task."

"If it gets sick or injured during this time, we'll have to spend a lot of money to treat it, which would be a huge expense."

Tiger Mom silently lowered her head and did some calculations, feeling a little guilty: "I don't have that many treasures right now."

Jiang Qingyue quickly said, "That's easy. You come work for me, I'll pay you a salary, and you can use that salary to support your little brat."

"salary?"

"Wages are just for hard work. Look, you're searching for resources all over this forest, it must be tiring, right? And you don't always have a meal, and you might even get bullied by those powerful experimental zones."

"Why not join me? I'll not only provide you with a stable supply of food and resources for your cultivation, but I'll also help you take care of your children."

"You don't have to take care of the kids, isn't that great?"

The tiger mother tilted her head; putting everything else aside, the thought of someone helping to take care of her cubs was very appealing to her.

Jiang Qingyue could tell from its expression that the guy was a little tempted, so she quickly pressed on: "The key is that you'll have dignity here, and you won't be bullied."

She pointed at Zhang Meng: "Look, I have such a strong person in my team. They are always successful and glamorous wherever they go, and they don't have to worry about encountering danger at all."

She then pointed to Yan Bao and Little Grey: "Look, the little ones in our team are all raised exceptionally well, they don't need to risk going out to train and forage for food on their own."

"Your little tiger cub can play and grow up with them too. Seriously, why not consider joining my team?"

Jiang Qingyue's face was full of anticipation. No matter if you're old or young, once you come, you're all mine.

Those who are not my soldiers are my prey.
