C308 (1/2)
On a highway in the suburbs, an off-road vehicle was slowly driving towards a barbeque station in the suburbs. In the car, Zhang Ruo Nan and Long Ling'er were inside. The three of them were excitedly discussing how they would enjoy the barbecue later.
When they reached a 360 degree turn, the SUV suddenly screeched to a screeching halt. With the screeching of brakes, the SUV also came to a quick stop.
”Hey, are you courting death? Standing in the middle of the street, you're courting death!” Long Yang who was driving leaned out of the window, raised his fist and cursed.
In front of the SUV, a stern man was standing upright in the middle of the road, not far from the SUV, staring at them.
Suddenly, Long Yang seemed to have thought of something and shouted to the two girls beside him: ”Little sister, Ruo Ruo, quickly run!”
Following Long Yang's shout, Zhang Ruo Nan and Long Ling'er quickly opened the car door, operated their movement techniques and rapidly ran towards the mountain.
”You want to escape?” The cold-looking man let out a mocking laugh. His body moved, and like a large eagle, he charged towards Zhang Ruo Nan and Long Ling'er. He completely ignored Long Yang who was in the car.
The man's speed was extremely fast. With just a few jumps, he had already blocked the two girls, giving them a disdainful look.
”It's you, and you still dare to appear!” Zhang Ruo Nan had a nervous expression as he pointed at the man that appeared, and said with a trembling voice.
The man sneered, as if he was extremely interested in Zhang Ruo Nan. He looked at her body again and again, and commented, ”I really can't tell that you're alive, but not only did you not die, you were even able to hatch your spirit beast. It seems that you have an expert helping you, right?”
At that moment, Zhang Ruo Nan's chest moved. A white cat stuck its head out with a ”hu” sound. It bared its fangs at the man with the cold expression. It looked to be extremely angry.
”Oh? I never thought that the spirit beast egg was actually a Heaven Swallowing Cat. Hahaha, the heavens are truly helping me. ” His body unconsciously started to tremble with excitement. ”Hahaha, I didn't expect that this demon beast egg was actually a Heaven Swallowing Cat, the heavens truly blessed me. As long as I could raise the Heaven Swallowing Cat, wouldn't the cultivation world be able to let me roam freely?”
Saying this, the cold-looking man looked at Zhang Ruo Nan with greed, and extended a hand: ”Little girl, since you have cancelled your contract with the Heaven-Devouring Cat, I will spare your life. ”If not …” The man's voice became cold and harsh, ”Otherwise, I can only kill you. As long as the Heaven-Devouring Cat's owner dies, I can still force it to recognize me as its master.”
”Meow —” Little White seemed to understand the meaning behind the man's words as it frantically called out. Its crystal-clear sapphire eyes looked warily at the man.
”Don't worry, Little White. I won't let you get hurt.” Zhang Ruo Nan gently caressed Xiao Bai's smooth fur and comforted him gently yet firmly.
With a sneer, the man said with disdain, ”Little girl, do you think you can save the Heaven-Devouring Cat from my hands?” After saying that, the cold-looking man stretched out his flat hand and grabbed towards Whitey's chest at an unbelievable speed.
Facing the man's grab, Zhang Ruo Nan acted as though she didn't see it. She quietly stood to the side, and only slightly glanced at Long Ling'er from the corner of her eyes.
