I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 141 - 10: The Overlord of the Mountain (Part 1)
Just as Li Jingshu and Xiaogui were communicating.
The Sleep Bugs also managed to track down Zhuhuai and Huo Dou through the damaged trees.
Buzz!
When a Sleep Bug circled around Li Jingshu a few times, she immediately understood its intent.
"Go!"
Without any hesitation, Li Jingshu signaled Xiaogui to fly up, while she followed that Sleep Bug deeper into the forest.
It was at this moment that Li Jingshu's remarkable physical prowess was displayed.
When Life Essence Qi circulated throughout her body, her small figure ran with the speed of a cheetah.
Every time she encountered an obstacle, she only needed a slight leap, and Li Jingshu could fly over several meters using branches and vines.
Within just a few breaths, Li Jingshu's silhouette disappeared into the forest.
Sigh!
When Li Jingshu arrived where the Sleep Bugs were staying.
The first sight was a messy forest and the still-raging flames.
In those flames, a black dog, half the height of a human, was struggling to breathe, with fresh blood dripping from its wounds.
Strangely, the blood was not red but as black as oil.
When the black blood dripped onto the ground, the already burning flames flared up even more fiercely.
Moo!
Opposite Huo Dou.
Zhuhuai, in a berserk state, had blood-red eyes and was breathing heavily.
The trees along the way were forcibly broken, and some unlucky big trees were uprooted.
Compared to the severely wounded Huo Dou, Zhuhuai's condition was much better.
Except for some fatigue, there were no visible wounds on Zhuhuai's body.
Its stout forehooves occasionally pawed at the ground, preparing to charge.
"That is..."
Li Jingshu noticed keenly that Huo Dou's position was somewhat off.
Gazing into the distance, she noticed that there was a nest of young cubs behind Huo Dou, not yet open-eyed.
It was precisely to protect those newborns.
This Huo Dou, having fled initially, was forced to stay and face the enemy.
Unfortunately, the weak post-partum Huo Dou was powerless against Zhuhuai, only able to watch as death loomed closer.
Awoo!
The low howl contained infinite sorrow.
Huo Dou did not fear death; she was just heartbroken that her children hadn't had the chance to see the world. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
...........................
"Zhuhuai! That's enough!"
Seeing Zhuhuai start to snort, preparing to charge again.
Finally catching her breath, Li Jingshu rushed out, blocking Zhuhuai and Huo Dou.
"This Huo Dou and you bear no deep hatred..."
"Now that you've exterminated her kind, spare these remaining cubs!"
Seeming startled by Li Jingshu's sudden appearance, a human-like astonishment flashed in Zhuhuai's eyes.
Because Zhuhuai knew Li Jingshu.
Or more precisely, any intelligent Spirit Monster in this forest knew this human girl.
It was not merely because her temper was fierce, her strength was formidable, and she seemed invincible, with no one ever drawing her blood.
But also because a Mountain God from Feilai Peak and a legendary Mountain Prophet stood behind her.
Moo!
After a brief hesitation, Zhuhuai let out another low growl.
It was warning Li Jingshu to leave, and she obviously understood the warning.
"You stubborn bull..."
"I'm not negotiating with you; I'm notifying you!"
Roaring with her voice lowered as well, Li Jingshu glared angrily at Zhuhuai.
"I've decided to protect this nest of cubs!"
"If you're smart, you'll leave quickly, or I'll have to beat you up!"
Li Jingshu wasn't just making idle threats.
As the overlord of this forest, her reputation was truly forged through battles.
But this time, she encountered the equally hot-tempered Zhuhuai.
Boom!
With a sudden stomp on the ground, Zhuhuai immediately charged.
Its massive size, combined with the four giant horns facing forward, resembled a heavy-armored tank charging.
"Fool!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Li Jingshu quickly drew the Butterfly Knife.
Then with lightning speed, she met Zhuhuai's charge.
Roar!
At the moment they collided, a faint roar seemed to emanate from the Butterfly Knife in Li Jingshu's hand.
Bang—crack!
In an instant, one of Zhuhuai's giant horns was severed by the Butterfly Knife.
Seizing the opportunity, Li Jingshu sidestepped and delivered a powerful kick, with an almost unbelievable angle and force, knocking Zhuhuai to the ground.
Moo!
It seemed reluctant, but it also sounded like a lament...
Zhuhuai struggled hard to get back up.
Then, a dozen waiting Sleep Bugs crawled into its nostrils, giving it no chance to rise again.
Moo...
The lament and roar ceased instantly, replaced by heavy breathing and snoring.
"Should we pry off its remaining horns as well?"
Only then did Xiaogui, who had just arrived, perch skillfully on Li Jingshu's shoulder and ask.
"Um..."
Li Jingshu had to admit that Xiaogui's suggestion was tempting.
However, after glancing at the giant horn on the ground, she shook her head.
"No, although my little brother would probably love these horns, he wouldn't like how I dealt with these Spirit Monsters."
"I bear no grudge against Zhuhuai, and taking away its survival abilities is as cruel as killing it."
Despite being the forest's overlord, Li Jingshu had her principles.
So after saying this, she ignored the slumbering Zhuhuai and turned her attention to the dying Huo Dou.
"I'm not saving you; I just want that nest of cubs behind you."
"According to the forest's rules, they are now my spoils..."
"You can tell me something, and when they grow up, I might let them know."
Just as Zhuhuai could understand Li Jingshu, the current Huo Dou also understood her.
Whimper...
Surprisingly, Huo Dou didn't ask for anything.
She simply cast a final, longing look at her offspring and stopped breathing.
Whimper...
Perhaps sensing their mother's departure, or simply reacting to the dying fire around them,
The nest of puppies let out mournful calls that tugged at the heartstrings.
