Chapter 173 (2/2)
As expected of a monster from the 9th mountain…
Ning Xuemo continued to hide needles with all sorts of poisons and even powerful anesthetics in the large stones before taunting the green tiger into ramming into them. Every needle managed to stab into the green tiger’s head, yet none managed to inflict the slightest harm on it.
That green tiger remained as powerful as before, even its smashing got more aggressive.
Fragments of stone flew everywhere in the formation as dust filled the air. It caused Ning Xuemo to cough to the point of having a bit of a headache…
This green tiger didn’t seem to be afraid of any poison. She couldn’t afford to waste anymore poisoned needles on it. It looks like she would have to think of another method.
Her gaze landed on the green tiger’s lush green fur as an idea suddenly occurred. This fellow was so green, it probably belonged to the wood element right? Then, wouldn’t fire be able to restrain it?
She checked her belongings and took out a match. Flicking it, she managed to light it. She rushed into danger by charging towards the green tiger, which hurriedly retreated before using its paw to swipe at her!
If it wasn’t for the fact that Ning Xuemo’s movements were quick enough, this swipe would have ended her.
But the wind from the swipe still managed to extinguish the match…
Ning Xuemo wasn’t interested in facing it head on; this time was just a test. Using those large stones, she avoided the following attacks of the green tiger.
‘This thing should be afraid of fire!’
Ning Xuemo reached this conclusion. There was a large tree in the formation, standing straight and topped with thick leaves and many branches.
Ning Xuemo was as agile as a monkey, quickly, she ascended the tree and broke off a branch…
That ginseng child clothed in white was standing on another large tree, enjoying the show. Seeing her break off a lush green branch, the corner of his lips slightly hooked upwards.
He was immensely intelligent, so he could naturally see what she was planning to do. She must have noticed that the green tiger was afraid of fire and decided to make a torch.
