"I would even meet spotted tigers on the periphery, I knew that let alone thirty spirit crystals, I wouldn't come in one hundred!" Next to the merchant there was also a big man with an iron sword, the big man had a thin demonic aura on his body, and it seemed that there was no demon qi, just a strong physical cultivator, a mercenary group that escorted the merchant.

"Didn't you promise that as long as you don't meet the middle-level demon beasts before you came in, there would be no problem?" The merchant blamed Da Han Dao, of course, he was also greedy for cheapness, and he hired a team of mercenaries who were only trained in physical cultivation at a low price, and the low-level demon beasts were barely able to deal with it, but when they met this kind of low-level demon beasts, the top existence was naturally not something they could deal with.

"How did I know that I could meet the overlord of the low-level demon beasts on the periphery of this Wanling Mountain!" the big man also roared angrily, but it was too late to say anything now, the spotted tiger was alone, but with its hunting ability, there was no need to fight in a team at all, and now the few people in front of him had already become the food on the plate of the spotted tiger.

"I don't care, I pity my fifteen-year-old daughter. The merchant looked relieved, and looked at the girl sitting on his horse with a reluctant expression, a look of reproach, if he had spent more money to hire stronger mercenaries, he would not have landed like this.

The girl looked at the ten-meter-old spotted tiger in front of her, where had she ever seen such a scene, she was so frightened that she couldn't shed tears, and after screaming in a hurry, she trembled and couldn't speak.

"Roar!"

The spotted tiger let out a roar, as if to say, I started, after the call, the spotted tiger's body bowed, and the huge body rushed towards this group of people, the big man held the long sword and rolled away from the body, but the merchant's luck was not so good, and he was directly torn off his legs by the huge front paws of the spotted tiger, the spotted tiger glanced at the merchant and felt that the merchant couldn't run anymore, turned around and went to chase the big man, and today no one could run away, the big man just turned around and relieved himself, the whole tiger body of the spotted tiger turned, and the big mouth of the blood basin swallowed the big man directly into his mouth.

After the brindled tiger swallowed the big man, he turned to look at the merchant with the broken leg and the girl on the horse, the horse was startled by the brindle tiger, raised the body of the horse and threw the girl off the horse's back, the horse just wanted to run, and was directly trampled to death by the brindled tiger with a kick, and the eyes were round and bloody.

"Cuiyue, Daddy can't stand you!" the merchant climbed to the side of the girl who fell off the horse, his hands were red with his own blood, and he stroked the girl's face with his hand, the girl's eyes were dull, and she finally cried when she saw the scene of the merchant.

The tiger roared and bit at the maiden and the merchant, trying to swallow them in the belly.

"Wicked, shut up!"

Between the trees, a black shadow flashed, and only a purple light flashed in his hand, and a long knife was directly inserted into the huge head of the spotted tiger, and the spotted tiger screamed in pain, shook its head wildly, and Xingyuan was thrown out at once.

Xing Yuan took a few steps back, Gu Ze's physical function was very good, and Xing Yuan also focused on cultivation speed, Xing Yuan's soul and Gu Ze's body reached a perfect fit at this moment, and after his body landed, he suddenly looked like a jaguar, going straight to the neck of the spotted tiger.

"Demon Moon Slash!"

The demon knife burst out with a dazzling purple-blue light in Xing Yuan's hand, the knife shadow flashed, and all the movements of the spotted tiger came to an abrupt end, and then there was a thin blood mark on its neck, and then the entire head fell heavily to the ground, Xingyuan's knife directly cut off the head of the spotted tiger, even if the spotted tiger was the overlord of the low-level demon beasts, but even the mid-level peak demon beasts could deal with Xingyuan, the low-level demon beasts were nothing in his eyes.

Xing Yuan shook off the blood on the demon knife, wiped the blood on the demon knife on the dead spotted tiger, wrapped it in a white cloth and put it behind his back, and then looked at the merchant and the girl.

The merchant vomited blood from his mouth, and in addition to his broken legs, he also broke several ribs in his chest.

"Shaoxia, Shaoxia............" The merchant endured the pain, looked at Xingyuan, his eyes had already begun to dissipate, and a low and hoarse voice called out to Xingyuan.

Xingyuan ran over, looked at the merchant's injuries, and then leaned down on the merchant's ear to listen carefully to the merchant's words.

"Shaoxia, this is my daughter, I hope you can help me protect ...... She, to ...... Giant Demon City ......" After the merchant finished speaking, he spat out another mouthful of blood, the blood was also mixed with the remnants of broken internal organs, and his breath became weaker and weaker, and the merchant took off a space ring with a thumb-sized turquoise gem on it in his hand and handed it to Xingyuan.

"Shaoxia, this is all my property, I just hope that Shaoxia can send the little girl to the Giant Demon City...... Ahem...... Salesroom...... And this letter, which you can give to the steward there...... Please......" After the merchant finished speaking, he died without mentioning it in one breath, his eyes were still full of pleading, and his hand was still stretched out in his arms before he could hand the letter to Xingyuan.

Xingyuan sighed, reached into the merchant's arms and took out the letter, which was still glued to the merchant's blood, and Xingyuan put the letter in his arms.

"Daddy~" Cuiyue threw herself on the dead merchant's body and howled loudly, Xingyuan looked at the crying Cuiyue and patted the girl's back in embarrassment, hoping to soothe and appease.

"Your father is dead, let's bury him, so as not to attract other monsters. Xing Yuan picked up the crying Cuiyue, it can't go on like this, the bloody smell of the spotted tiger will soon attract other carnivorous demon beasts, and it will be difficult to gather too much, after all, there is a weak Cuiyue by his side.

Xingyuan dug a big pit in the same place and buried the merchant simply, there were some simple groceries on the horses, but they were useless, Xingyuan didn't care, he cut off one leg of the spotted tiger with a knife and put it on his back, Cuiyue kowtowed a few times in front of the merchant's tomb before standing up and leaving Xingyuan.

"What's your name~" Xingyuan walked and asked Cui Yue on the side, he didn't know the name of this girl yet.

"Zhuang Cuiyue. Cuiyue didn't cry anymore, and her voice was still a little sobbing and replied to Xingyuandao.

"How did you come to this Ten Thousand Spirits Mountain?" Xing Yuan was a little curious, this Ten Thousand Spirits Mountain was a very dangerous place according to the memory of the ancient rules, and people who had never cultivated dared to enter here, Xing Yuan was also a little surprised.

Saying that, the two had returned to the waterhole just now, Xingyuan lit a bonfire, took out his robe and handed it to Cuiyue, the temperature at night dropped, Cuiyue's body must not be able to withstand the cold of the night, Xingyuan also had to raise a bonfire to warm Cuiyue, Xingyuan put the legs of the spotted tiger on the bonfire.

Cuiyue warmed up her body and began to remember two days ago.

"At that time, my father and I arrived at the foot of the Wanling Mountain, where there was a small town, I heard that there were many robbers on the avenue, and after thinking about it, my father still felt that he would take the risk of taking the shortcut of the Wanling Mountain, and hired some mercenaries with a few spirit crystals, but they were just some physical cultivators, and they were relatively stable all the way, and they met some demon beasts that were not aggressive. Cuiyue recalled what happened and said slowly to Xingyuan.

"The mercenaries began to be bold, killed a lot of low-level demon beasts and took a lot of spirit crystals, and then this spotted tiger appeared, we ran, more than a dozen mercenaries were all eaten by the spotted tiger, until we met the young man......" Cuiyue said, Xing Yuan secretly scolded those mercenary idiots in his heart when he heard this, it must be that they killed low-level demon beasts all the way and did not have a good life to deal with, and the smell of blood attracted the spotted tigers, these people were also blinded by the immediate interests, and wanted to kill more low-level demon beasts to obtain spirit crystals, but they did not think about the consequences until they lost their lives.

"Don't call me Shaoxia, it sounds awkward, just call me Xingyuan, no, no, call me Gu Ze. Xing Yuan said his name casually, and immediately changed his words when he found that it was wrong, Cuiyue was stunned, obviously the name Xing Yuan had been remembered by her.

"Brother Gu Ze......" Cui Yue called softly, Xing Yuan scratched his head, smiled awkwardly, and immediately relieved the embarrassing atmosphere now and said: "Don't worry, we can go to Giant Demon City tomorrow, although I didn't promise your father, but I am not a person who will not be saved when I see death." ”

After Xing Yuan finished speaking, he took the space ring handed to him by the merchant from his arms and gave it to Cuiyue, who hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Young man...... Brother Gu Ze, this is given to you by my father, how can I ask for it. ”

Xing Yuan smiled, took Cuiyue's little hand and stuffed it directly into Cuiyue's hand, and said, "This space ring is your father's relic, besides, it's not good for you to be a woman without some property, not to mention that I can't take it away......"

Cuiyue was stunned, didn't understand Xing Yuan's words, or hurriedly waved his hand and didn't dare to ask for it, Xing Yuan saw that Cuiyue really didn't want it, so he had to say: "I'll deposit it to you first, if I don't have money when you don't give it to me." ”

Cuiyue saw that Xing Yuan was stubborn and insisted on returning the ring that his father gave him, seeing Xing Yuan's serious expression, it was really difficult to shirk it, so he had to put down the ring, and looked at Xing Yuan's eyes with a little more gratitude, if there was this space ring, Daddy's savings would be enough for Cui Yue's ordinary life for a lifetime.
