Chapter 113: Entering the Mountains, Encountering an Attack!

"Shizi?!"

Hearing someone call out to Hu Xiaoxiao, the gazes of the few turned toward the sound.

They saw five men and two women, seven young people in total, not far away.

They all appeared to be around twenty years old.

And just like the young man who spoke, the other six were all wearing black martial outfits.

A golden tiger head was embroidered on their clothes, and they stood there with an extraordinary aura.

This golden tiger head was precisely the emblem of the Xiaotian Sect.

Clearly, these young people were all talented youths from the Xiaotian Sect.

"Since these few have come, I'm afraid those guys like Heipi have followed as well."

"It's perfect to bring those guys along to see the world and pay their respects, let them see my boss's strength, and join the Zhatian Gang!"

Little Tiger glanced at the group and muttered to himself.

The Heipi he mentioned was naturally the Spirit Beast of those Xiaotian Sect Beast Tamers.

Hu Xiaoxiao was the precious daughter of the Xiaotian Sect, the daughter of the Sect Master.

And her Spirit Beast, Little Tiger, naturally had an equally extraordinary origin.

Both of them were the same, possessing powerful family backgrounds and heritage.

Little Tiger's grandfather was the Spirit Beast of the Xiaotian Sect's ancestor.

The Xiaotian Divine Tiger! A powerful Legendary-Level Spirit Beast, whose level had even reached a terrifying Eight-Tier!

Little Tiger was the only descendant of this lineage, and its bloodline had undergone an atavism, making it the closest to its ancestor.

In the future, it was highly likely to evolve into a very precious Legendary-Level Spirit Beast.

At this moment, after hearing the conversation of the group, Luo Shuiyan and the other two also understood.

The young people and Spirit Beasts before them were all people from Hu Xiaoxiao's family.

Seeing the group descend from their flying Spirit Beasts, the seven young people in their line of sight approached quickly, each with a smile on their face.

"Xiaoxiao, you've been sneaking out for too long, you really worried us to death."

"We heard from the Sect Master and the others that you little girl even ran all the way to Xi'an Ancient City; you've got some real nerve!"

As soon as Hu Xiaoxiao landed, she was immediately surrounded by these seven people.

These seven people were like her older brothers and sisters, surrounding Hu Xiaoxiao and fussing over her.

Looking to see if she had grown taller, then checking if she had lost weight from hunger, they were very concerned about her.

The others on the side could tell that Hu Xiaoxiao must be very pampered within the sect.

"Xiaoxiao, I heard your cultivation has been good lately; you actually took first place in the team tournament at the Da Jin Hundred Schools League."

"According to your age, you should have just joined the Beast Tamer Academy, right?"

"To have such a battle record as a freshman, that's really great!"

"Hee hee, that's only natural! Don't look at who I am!"

Hearing everyone's praise, Hu Xiaoxiao immediately wore a proud and spoiled expression.

Although she was already eighteen, she was still like a little girl who never grew up, very much enjoying this kind of adoration from everyone.

Her curved eyes looked just like crescent moons.

"Hurry and have Shizi and the others call out Heipi and those guys."

Little Tiger was already impatient and wanted to expand the business for the Zhatian Gang, so it urged her hurriedly.

Upon hearing this, Hu Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement, then looked at the young people before her and said.

"Brother Shizi, Little Tiger wants to see Heipi and the others too; I reckon these little guys want to catch up."

Hearing this, the seven people also successively summoned their respective Spirit Beasts from their Beast Taming Spaces.

The most conspicuous among them was a fierce tiger with a pitch-black body.

This black fierce tiger was naturally the Heipi that Little Tiger had just mentioned.

Seeing their old friends, the few Spirit Beasts immediately mingled together.

After Hu Xiaoxiao caught up with the group briefly, she began to introduce them one by one.

Seeing these young people, Li Yan was quite happy.

He knew that these were all talented youths of the Xiaotian Sect, and getting close to such a large sect was never a bad thing.

"Greetings, Senior Li..."

These seven young people from the Xiaotian Sect were also very well-mannered.

After Hu Xiaoxiao finished the introductions, they all cupped their hands toward Li Yan with respectful expressions.

However, the young man in the lead immediately fixed his gaze on Luo Shuiyan.

"I presume this must be Luo Shuiyan."

"A freshman, yet at such a young age, you won the Individual Tournament of the Great Jin Dynasty's Hundred Schools League."

"And you also led your team to win the Team Tournament; your reputation has spread throughout the entire Great Jin Dynasty."

"Indeed, hearing of you is not as good as seeing you; you are even more outstanding and excellent than I imagined..."

A genius with such extremely outstanding talent as Luo Shuiyan was destined to be a dazzling focal point wherever she went.

Even the talented youths of the Xiaotian Sect would look at her with special regard. Moreover, during this period, Luo Shuiyan's fame had almost resounded throughout the upper echelons of the entire Great Jin Dynasty.

Before they set off, the Xiaotian Sect Master had specifically instructed them to build a good relationship with Luo Shuiyan and the others.

Partly because of Hu Xiaoxiao, and partly because Luo Shuiyan and her group were indeed outstanding enough.

After a brief conversation, the group could be considered to have gotten to know each other.

Because of Hu Xiaoxiao, the two sides got along quite harmoniously.

Although Luo Shuiyan does not like interacting with strangers, she still had to give Hu Xiaoxiao some face.

"I wonder if you all would be willing to enter the Canglan Mountain Range with us in a while?"

Hushi looked toward Luo Shuiyan and extended an invitation.

However, Luo Shuiyan waved her hand and refused directly.

She is naturally a person who likes quiet, and she does not like traveling with these people she is not familiar with.

Not to mention that there were suddenly so many men in the group.

Just at this moment, Sima Wei happened to be passing by this place.

After hearing the conversation between Luo Shuiyan and the others, a smile immediately flashed across her face.

Luo Shuiyan had even refused the Xiaotian Sect, yet she did not refuse her invitation.

This made Sima Wei suddenly feel that she had a lot of face, and she was overjoyed inside.

"What about you, Xiaoxiao? Are you coming with us?"

Seeing Luo Shuiyan refuse, Hushi did not force it, and he turned his head to look at Hu Xiaoxiao and asked.

"That goes without saying, of course I am going to stick with my sisters!"

Facing the invitation from the Xiaotian Sect, Hu Xiaoxiao's stance was very clear; she would absolutely not leave these sisters of hers.

Seeing Hu Xiaoxiao's attitude, Hushi and the others could only smile wryly.

They had not counted on Hu Xiaoxiao being able to travel with them at all.

After all, this little girl could even escape from the sect, so how could she possibly go with them.

"Boss! Boss! I've brought a few more newcomers!"

At this time, Little Tiger finished catching up with Heipi and the other Spirit Beasts, then came to Jiang Che's side, looking excited and proud.

"Boss, these guys, they all want to join our Zhatian Gang."

Seeing the few new Spirit Beast underlings, Jiang Che also gave Little Tiger a lot of face.

He immediately displayed his own powerful Sixth Rank Spirit Beast cultivation, as well as the overbearing bloodline pressure of a Kirin Divine Beast.

Heipi and the other Spirit Beasts were all stunned, their bodies trembling non-stop.

Originally, they had still been skeptical of Little Tiger's words, but now they were instantly subdued by Jiang Che's might, their eyes filled with immense respect.

Seeing that their own Spirit Beasts were, in just this short amount of time, so respectful toward that little purple beast of Luo Shuiyan's.

Hushi and the others were all somewhat surprised.

One must know that as young talents of the Xiaotian Sect, the Spirit Beasts they contracted were naturally extraordinary, yet they had now directly become underlings.

At this time, Marshal Wei Long walked toward Luo Shuiyan and the others, holding several tokens in his hand.

Those who came from hidden sects or powerful clans already possessed such tokens, so they did not need to collect them.

These few tokens from Marshal Wei Long were mainly prepared for Luo Shuiyan and the others who had won the Hundred Schools League.

"Only by carrying this token can you enter the range of Canglan Mountain without being attacked by those powerful Spirit Beasts."

"I hope you will all keep your respective tokens safe; you must not lose them, otherwise the consequences will be troublesome..."

Marshal Wei Long gave the tokens to Luo Shuiyan and the others, and gave them a few more instructions.

"Right, when you return from Canglan Mountain, remember to return the tokens to me..."

"Everyone, then we shall set off first."

After finishing their preparations, Luo Shuiyan bid farewell to Li Yan and the others.

In this group, besides the original four, there was one extra person: the little Princess of the imperial family, Sima Wei.

The area of the Canglan Mountain Range is very large, and on the plains outside the mountain range, Spirit Beasts can be seen everywhere.

However, most of them here are existences with low-level bloodlines.

There are indeed many Spirit Beast dealers who specialize in catching Spirit Beasts here to sell them within the borders.

Not long after, the group stepped into the outer perimeter of the mountain range.

Apart from those holding tokens, it was difficult to see other humans here.

If one were to go deeper and enter the depths of Canglan Mountain, without a token, one would be directly wiped out by powerful Spirit Beasts.

After the five of them had traveled over a hundred miles, several figures suddenly appeared in Jiang Che's Holographic Perspective.

"The situation is not looking good."

Jiang Che's brows instantly locked together.

Through his Detection Skill, he discovered that among these few people who had suddenly appeared, there were actually three Venerable Rank powerhouses! (End of chapter)
