2405 Stalemate on the Legendary Fiend Mountain
However, Yu Qian didn’t dare to reveal it at all. He knew clearly that the First Deity was much stronger than him. The more important thing was that the First Deity was Divine Master’s most trusted and important individual.
He had the Divine Master backing him up—other people couldn’tpare with him on this point alone. Hence, Yu Qian had to tolerate it.
Suddenly, his expression focused, and he looked to the front. He shouted sternly, “Who’s there?”
A tall figure walked out from the woods. This was a young man with a muscr build, and he was half a head taller than Yu Qian.
His appearance was fit, and his aura was outstanding.
It was an unfamiliar face.
After seeing Yu Qian, the man opposite was dazed for a moment as he nodded and greeted, “Greetings, Second Deity.”
Yu Qian knew that he wasn’t ordinary at first nce. Besides, if he appeared in this ce at this time, there was only one possibility.
Yu Qian quickly searched his mind for and vaguely guessed the other party’s name. “…Hua Shuangshuang?”
Hua Shuangshuang was rather shocked. “Second Deity, you know me?”
It couldn’t be said that Yu Qian knew him, but he did hear of Hua Shuangshuang’s name before.
Ever since Chu Liuyue sessfully finished the Star Path and entered the Fantasy Divine Hall, Yu Qian specifically went to check on the subordinates around her. Hua Shuangshuang was tall and was easy to recognize, so Yu Qian quickly guessed his identity.
“What are you doing here?” asked Yu Qian coldly. The Heaven Gate is about to close. Most of the cultivators are busy improving themselves now. Who has the time to stay at the legendary fiend mountain?
Hua Shuangshuang was about to speak when a head quickly popped out from behind him and shrunk back again.
Yu Qian’s eyes were very sharp. “What’s that behind you?”
Hua Shuangshuang coughed. “Nothing much; it’s just a little fellow. Second Deity, I’ve made a joke of myself.”
“Little fellow…” Yu Qian suddenlyughed. “Wind-Stepping Tiger?”
Hua Shuangshuang’s heart tightened.
Yu Qian’s eyes were extremely sharp. Even if it was just a nce, he also rapidly recognized that it was a Wind-Stepping Tiger.
However, there doesn’t seem to be such an existence on the legendary fiend mountain. So where did the one on Hua Shuangshuang’s backe from?
Yu Qian could clearly feel a familiar aura from the small Wind-Stepping Tiger. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly thought of something. “That’s the cub that scoundrel left behind?”
Back then, he was bitten by that Wind-Stepping Tiger and was furious. In his anger, he killed it.
However, he did not expect a small one to be left behind. Besides, it was right beside Hua Shuangshuang now!
Yu Qian stretched his hand out. “Pass it to me.”
Hua Shuangshuang did not move. He knew too clearly what Yu Qian wanted to do.
The little fellowy on his back. Seemingly because it felt the dangerous aura on Yu Qian, it trembled.
This caused Hua Shuangshuang’s smile to be much fainter. “Second Deity, it’s lonely and has nobody to depend on. It’s already very pitiful. Why must you push it to a dead end?”
Yu Qian seemed as if he had heard a joke. “It seems like you know quite a bit? But… who are you to dare to talk to me like that?”
As if he did not detect the threat in his tone, Hua Shuangshuang lightly said, “I know that the legendary fiend mountain is under your charge, but… That’s also the reason why it’s most unsuitable for you to do this, right?”
So many legendary fiends here seemed to listen to Yu Qian’s every word. However, clearly most of them did it because of fear.
Previously, it was fine when he brought the little fellow to y. The moment Yu Qian came out, the other legendary fiends immediately disappeared in panic. It wasn’t hard to imagine how Yu Qian treated them normally.
That was true. Yu Qian could hand the ck Bone Golden-Winged Beast to Jun Jiuqing to y, and he did not care about these legendary fiends’ survival. What else could he not do?
Yu Qian was so angry that heughed. “Are you lecturing me?”
It’s fine if the First Deity punished him and made me kneel for three days and three nights. After all, the other party is much stronger than me and has a higher status. However… who is this Hua Shuangshuang?!
Yu Qian was already in a bad mood. Now that Hua Shuangshuang hit his Achilles’ heel… Who else could he cause trouble for?
Hua Shuangshuang did not back down. “I wouldn’t dare, but I’m just stating the facts.”
Of course, he could tell that Yu Qian was annoyed.
Actually, at this point, a normal person would know to take a step back and bow down to admit their mistake. But… Hua Shuangshuang did not want to do so.
Yu Qian’s voice was stern. “Shangguan Yue is too used to being arrogant, and even her subordinates are like this. It seems like you don’t know what’s good for you if I don’t teach you a lesson!”
As he spoke, his surrounding aura exploded.
Hua Shuangshuang’s expression was tense.
His current skills clearly couldn’tpete with the other party. Without a doubt, as long as Yu Qian wanted to, he could settle him in one move.
The fallen leaves flew up in the forest.
The air was cold and still, and the surrounding space seemed to be frozen.
But at this moment, that Wind-Stepping Tiger suddenly jumped from Hua Shuangshuang’s back to his shoulders. Then, it jumped forward onto the ground and blocked Hua Shuangshuang.
“Ow!” It ferociously roared at Yu Qian.
It was a pity that it was still young, and this roar was very childish and did not pose much of a threat.
Yu Qian saw it andughed. “What, do you think you can protect him alone? You overestimate yourself!”
“Wu-wu!” The Wind-Stepping Tiger heard his voice, and terror quickly shed across its eyes. However, it quickly suppressed such emotions and stood in front of Hua Shuangshuang determinedly. If Yu Qian took action, it would immediately fight with its life.
Hua Shuangshuang knitted his brows and quickly picked the Wind-Stepping Tiger up. “Second Deity, if you’re angry, you can just target me. What does it make of you if you hold things against it?”
