Chapter 386

~8 min read 1,406 words

The palace lantern lit up.

It was a bright yellow light that illuminated the entire cavern.

Clearly, there was only one candle inside the lantern, but the brightness was about the same as the main light in Wu Xian's living room. This candle was definitely not ordinary; it should have had special power attached to it.

Wu Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems he had overreacted just now.

The candle in the palace lantern had been replaced with a new one, not the one that was about to burn out before. The darkness just now was just a necessary step when changing the lamp.

The Mad Woman's eerie laughter wasn't because some conspiracy had been achieved, but because of the secret joy of knowing she could live for another eight hours.

But Wu Xian didn't regret using the Suanni Shouni Yu Hu divine ability.

In the environment just now, Wu Xian couldn't foresee the future and didn't dare to gamble on whether it was safe. His only choice was to release the demon divine ability to protect himself, and using Suanni Shouni Yu Hu at this time wasn't a loss.

The ability of Suanni Shouni Yu Hu is to summon a tiger out of thin air.

This tiger wouldn't disappear quickly, but would wander around the summoner, assisting in battle when needed. Summoning it in advance could also allow for more time to get in sync.

Wu Xian looked ahead, observing the tiger he had summoned.

He saw that where there had just been an empty space, a fierce tiger with a white forehead and hanging eyes suddenly appeared.

This big worm was as strong as an ox, with a yellow, white, and black color scheme, soft and moist fur, a fierce head, sharp fangs, and claws that could be as big as Wu Xian's face. Its yellow and black tail swung back and forth like a steel whip, fully displaying the majesty of the king of beasts.

The only problem is...

This tiger seems a bit fat.

Yes.

This tiger's weight was clearly over the limit, its belly sagging to the ground, and the contours of the muscles on its sturdy limbs couldn't even be seen. It was the kind of obese creature that could only be raised in a pig-farming-style zoo.

"Why is it a fat tiger!"

Wu Xian touched his belly helplessly. The moment the summoning was completed, his belly, which had been a bit overstuffed, suddenly emptied.

Using a demon divine ability requires consuming Qi and blood. This Qi and blood, to put it bluntly, is meat. Only by eating more meat can one accumulate the progress bar for releasing the demon divine ability.

Therefore, before entering the Fudi, Wu Xian had He Mama make a big table of meat dishes, and he had eaten until he was about to vomit before entering the Fudi. It might be precisely because Wu Xian's supply of Qi and blood was too sufficient during this summoning that he summoned such an overweight fat tiger...

"Ah!"

A terrified scream came.

Wu Xian saw the tiger's appearance, and of course, others saw it too.

Even if it was a fat tiger, that kind of impact wasn't something ordinary wild beasts could compare to. Only by facing a tiger directly could one understand that kind of terrifying oppressive force.

The fat tiger clearly hadn't done anything, just standing there, but it made Xia Caoqing grab Huang Debiao's skin as if she were having a stress reaction. It seems this fierce beast had stirred up her fear of that strange bear.

The Mad Woman also scratched her hair frantically, hiding behind Wu Xian, muttering incessantly: "Why is there a tiger? There shouldn't be a tiger here..."

The scene suddenly became chaotic.

Compared to the deterrence of darkness, this fierce beast close at hand made everyone feel even more terrified.

The three people other than Wu Xian all showed signs of a mental breakdown.

The fat tiger tried to approach Wu Xian and let out an affectionate roar, but Wu Xian made faces at it, looking like he didn't want it to get close.

So the fat tiger could only roar low in disappointment, sticking out its huge belly, and walked toward a dark cave.

When there is no battle, the fat tiger doesn't need to listen to Wu Xian's orders, so since Wu Xian doesn't welcome it, it has to go patrol nearby.

The fat tiger walked to the entrance of the cave full of majesty, stared at the deep darkness for a long time, suddenly stopped, turned and walked to the territory where the Mad Woman had spread straw, lay down, and began to sleep soundly as if no one else was there! Wu Xian's mouth twitched.

Scared!

The tiger he summoned was scared! Think about it carefully, what he summoned was just an ordinary tiger.

Although the tiger is the king of beasts, that's only for normal creatures. Among malevolent entities, there are plenty of things that can easily kill a tiger.

This dark cave is just as dangerous for this tiger! Wu Xian could only feel slightly at ease with the tiger, but couldn't rely on the tiger to sleep soundly.

The next few hours were spent in silence.

Wu Xian wanted to say something, but the other three refused to echo him. They were afraid of waking the sleeping tiger and bringing disaster upon themselves.

Huang Debiao and his wife were already smiling foolishly in self-abandonment.

Having experienced so many bizarre events, they no longer believed that a search and rescue team would come to save them. They felt their end would be to rot in this oppressive place or be eaten by the tiger.

The Mad Woman's belly, on the other hand, was growling incessantly.

Her eyes looking at the others were a bit dangerous, especially staring at Huang Debiao and his wife for a long time. When she got excited, she would reach into her clothes to touch something. There should be a weapon hidden there.

Wu Xian recognized the Mad Woman's gaze.

That is hunger!

This Mad Woman has lived in this cavern for a long time, so what is her food?

This question cannot be thought about in detail, but Wu Xian already had a bit more vigilance.

Suddenly.

The fat tiger raised its head.

The four people in the cave also reacted.

This cavern is usually very quiet, with at most the rustling sound of small insects crawling, but now they heard approaching footsteps.

All the creatures in the cave stared at the source of the sound.

A moment later.

From a dark cave, a tall man walked out.

This man was strong, with only a tattered big vest on his upper body, full of stubble, a very fierce face, and bloodstains in many places on his body, especially at the throat, where there was a pool of filthy blood. However, these filthy bloodstains shouldn't have been his.

This guy's strength wasn't the muscle-man type like Su Mi. Su Mi had an inverted triangle bodybuilding physique, while this guy had a regular triangle sturdy physique. His two exposed arms were covered in sweat hair, just like wearing a sweater.

Everyone was full of vigilance toward this man.

But the man ran over directly and burst into tears to the four people.

"Ah, I finally saw people. I thought I was going to die in the darkness. Thank you, thank you so much..."

The painful appearance of this fierce-looking man was really hard to look at directly.

A moment later.

Through some communication.

Everyone finally figured out the origin of this sturdy man.

His name is Xiong Gang, and like them, he is also a victim who fell into this dark cave.

After he entered the cave, he encountered a monster attack and only managed to find a place with light with great difficulty.

Wu Xian asked curiously: "What kind of monster was it?"

Xiong Gang said with lingering fear: "I don't know either. I was extremely scared at the time, so I kept punching wildly, and ran away when there was no movement."

Wu Xian looked at his figure and was silent for a while. That thing that attacked him was probably beaten to death by his wild punches! "Then why did you fall into the cave?"

Xiong Gang smiled: "They said I killed someone!"
