Chapter 194: Cats Are Good for Physical and Mental Health (2/2)
”No problem, later on, we shouldn’t need it anymore.”
”Why?”
w.a.n.g Lu said, ”Because more than likely we won’t have the opportunity to use it. First of all, our goal is not to fight it out against the Beast Master School people, but to find the immortal beast moon spirit. And on this point, we have made great progress. The location where we are now is frequently visited by the immortal beast. Though A Xia has set an ambush here, the location itself is not a problem. As long as the stupid dog concentrates on the search, we can find the immortal beast ahead of the Beast Master School. To put it simply, we have absolutely no need to fight with them.”
And in order to confirm w.a.n.g Lu’s argument, Quan Zouhua walked over and barked twice to show its support.
However, Xiao Qi put out a problem, ”Just now, we’ve made a big commotion here, how could Beast Master School people possibly let us here?”
”Therefore I let A Xia go and just seriously injured the demonic wolf. Actually, I have the opportunity to keep him, but a stray dog is more useful than a dead dog. A Xia spent a great price to lay this trap, but now if he returns in a defeated state and just wait for the punishment, it would be a dead end for him. He is a kind of evil cultivator, so he must have quite a lot of opponents in the Beast Master School, and they would surely take advantage of his unfavorable situation. His only hope is to redeem himself through meritorious achievement before other people hold him accountable for his crime so that everything would even out. Therefore, this time, he would help us block the involvement of other Elders, and then tap into his own potential before staging a comeback.”
Xiao Qi frowned. ”He wouldn’t be that stupid, right? After spending so many resources, he still failed to defeat you. Now his resources are depleted, and his loyal spirit beasts are either dead or seriously injured. His chance to win will only get slimmer.”
”But he has no other choice. Otherwise, do you think he would just let himself be punished to death by the sect? Moreover, just now, in front of his face, I purposely scattered the cloud silver from the exterior surface of the cloud wave boat to show him our slight weakness, which gives him a glimmer of hope in his state of despair. This, in turn, would let him continue to tempt his fate.”
”You… you thought about that when you were fighting so fiercely?”
”If I can’t even do two things at once, how can I call myself a professional adventurer? Hmm, if I guess it right, that waste should be hysterical by now… I hope he can be strong and pick himself up as soon as possible.”

”F*ck, f*ck, f*cking f*ck, f*ck!”
In a narrow valley somewhere in the Grand Cloud Mountain, a figure similar to A Xia, with blood seeping out through his seven orifices, wildly cursed everything as he moved like crazy. Accompanied by his crazy roar, Jindan level magical power violently burst out in the form of a blade-like storm that swept everything around him.
Gravels continued to fall as the walls of the valley was torn by this magical power storm. The dust around his feet was swept up and turned into a violent sandstorm.
When the storm subsided, the narrow valley was widened by a few meters, and the valley was filled with gravel and sand.
A Jindan Stage cultivator could easily split open a mountain, crack a stone, break a city and exterminate a country. If people of the mortal world witnessed this scene, most would prostrate in front of A Xia to wors.h.i.+p him… However, when his gaze swept around, A Xia was depressed. Not only did it not alleviate the heavy feeling in his heart, but it also became drearier instead.
After this all out outburst, he could only slice off some stone and soil, his Jindan was really unworthy of its name… Though he was a middle-level Jindan, within Beast Master School, even those with low-level Jindan were a bit stronger than him.
At least the claim of the young man named Yue Lu was right. In Immortal Cultivation, he was indeed a waste.
However, him as a waste was only because his path was cut off from him. It was not because he lacked in intelligence nor determination. After countless trial and error, he finally selected his current path… Though in many people’s view, his was an evil path, but, victory after victory has made him confident of his choice.
His path was certainly not wrong. For him whose apt.i.tude was insufficient, this was the most effective method to be strong. As a beast trainer, as long as he squeezed out the power of spirit beast and used it for his cause, it was enough for him. And this was the thing that he excelled at!
What could a single defeat show him? In Immortal Cultivation path, who could travel through without any mishap? Those experts with astonis.h.i.+ng cultivation base, who hasn’t suffered a setback in their journey? There was nothing to be ashamed of from losing a fight against a rich guy with a battle tank that could release flying swords!
After a long time, A Xia was finally able to think of all the reasons of his defeat and somewhat accepted it.
It was really a close call. Not long ago when he launched the escape talisman and took refuge in this secluded place, his heart was filled with fear. Under the tide of enormous fear, his originally calm dao's heart within his Jade Mansion nearly crumbled. This time, his lost was really too big.
At this time, his state of mind has finally returned to normal, and he didn’t obsess about it anymore. However, things have yet to be resolved. After he had calmed down, he still needed to face the bleak situation.
Previously, he promised before the Great Elder and the other Elders that he would deal with the three uninvited guest by mobilizing vast resources from the sect. Now, if he came back with such a result… Tiger King would likely execute him. Thinking of this, his just calm state of mind became unstable again. Thus, A Xia wanted to vent his anger...
”Ling Yan, get over here at once.”
The cat girl figure silently appeared beside him. The girl looked pale and extremely terrified.
”You incompetent waste! Where the h.e.l.l have you been at that time!”
A Xia slapped her straight on the face, unreservedly releasing the power of a Jindan. The cat girl screamed miserably as her body slammed into the rock wall, with half of her face covered in blood!
