"You talk too much. I just wanted to fight!"
"…"
Li Fei's mouth hung open, and he muttered, "That reason really leaves me speechless. I'm annoyed with that guy, but he's still a rank-two martial artist. What should we do now that you've knocked him out?"
"Should we retreat for now? Think it over? "
Jiang He glanced at the calf-sized black cat in front of him.
Its entire body was jet-black, and because of its sheer size, it looked more like a black panther.
It paced back and forth up ahead, but did not make a sound.
"A rank-one Feral … feels very weak."
Beside him, Li Fei did not seem to hear him clearly, and blurted out in English in a panic, "Did you say Diza?"
"Nothing."
"You know that I'm a beast-tamer, and a mere rank-one Feral is no problem for me."
Jiang He continued walking forward.
Even as he walked, he clenched his fists until they cracked loudly. "Do you want to live or die, kitty?"
All Li Fei felt was a chill rising from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head. Clutching his staff, he ran forward, yelling, "Don't provoke it, Jiang He! Hurry up and go! Be careful, you're a beast-tamer, and your body is weak … What the hell!"
But before he could reach Jiang He, he heard a piercing meow.
The shriek seemed to have some sort of magical power that rushed straight into his mind, causing Li Fei's body to wobble.
The black cat's four limbs exerted strength, and the gravel beneath its feet shook. Its body turned into a black streak as it lunged at Jiang He, its sharp claws gleaming coldly beneath the moonlight.
Whoosh!
The sound of air being torn echoed.
The black cat's sharp claws landed directly on Jiang He's face.
Jiang He punched as well.
His fist slammed into the black cat's abdomen.
Pow!
With a dull thud, the black cat's massive body was sent flying over a dozen meters away, crashing heavily onto the ground, bouncing up and rolling a few times before coming to a stop.
That was when Li Fei ran to Jiang He's side.
He felt utterly bewildered, and his eyes widened at Jiang He, muttering, "Aren't you a beast-tamer, Jiang He? You … You're that strong?"
Jiang He ignored Li Fei.
He rubbed his face and grimaced in pain. "Li Fei, can you help me see if I'm disfigured? I was scratched by that beast just now. "
Li Fei took out his phone's flashlight and shone it at Jiang He's face.
Hiss!
He inhaled sharply and exclaimed in surprise, "Heavens, aren't you a little too shameless, Jiang He? That black cat is a first-tier vicious beast. Its claws are so sharp that they can even scratch rocks. But on your face, it only left two red marks? Eh … the red marks have all disappeared. "
"Get lost!"
Jiang He scowled and barked, "You're the one with thick skin!"
In his heart, he had an evaluation of his "Vajra Indestructible Divine Art".
"Although I haven't cultivated the Invincible Vajra Body to the Initial Stage of Internal and External Cultivation, anyone below the Fourth Pin shouldn't be able to harm me. It's just that I haven't learned any martial arts techniques or cultivation methods, and I don't have much combat experience. These are my shortcomings."
He strode towards the black cat.
The black cat had turned into a corpse.
Jiang He's punch contained the full power of a rank-three advanced, and it was not something a rank-one Feral could withstand.
Li Fei walked up to him blankly and checked the black cat's corpse, muttering, "Its abdomen is pierced and its innards are probably shattered. Three of its right paws are broken too …"
Even as he spoke, he turned to Jiang He by reflex and asked, "Jiang He, you're not a beast-tamer!"
"You're an Awakened with superstrength as well, and your skin has mutated to the point that it's as tough as steel?"
Jiang He had a feeling that Li Fei was scolding him for being shameless.
He was about to speak when his expression changed, and he slowly rose to his feet to look around.
Several Ferals were slowly approaching them from the grassy plains around them.
There were up to seven of them, all evolved from feral dogs and cats. Each of them was massive and ferocious, and they slowly surrounded Jiang He and Li Fei.
Li Fei and Jiang He stood back-to-back.
"Eh?"
"Why are you shaking, Two Dog Li?"
Jiang He barked. "You're a D-class superstrength Awakened and you're not weak. Don't be afraid, just treat them as normal stray cats and dogs!"
"Is that so?"
Li Fei began to hypnotize himself. Suddenly, he bellowed and charged at a feral dog that was taller than him with his metal staff, sneering, "It's just a poodle. Do you think I'm scared of you?"
Pow!
He smashed out with his staff.
The gigantic feral dog swung its paw to block, but its paw was directly broken by the staff, and its entire body was sent flying.
Seeing that his strike was effective, Two Dog Li's confidence soared, and he laughed out loud. "Jiang He, don't do anything. Hold the line for me. I'll kill these beasts."
"…"
Jiang He appeared surprised. Was a D-class superstrength Awakened that violent?
The force behind Two Dog Li's staff just now was probably close to two tons.
How terrifying would the destructive force of a heavy weapon like the metal staff be when it was blasted out in an instant?
If it had been an ordinary person, he would have been smashed into a pile of minced meat by that stick. However, that wild dog beast rolled a few times on the ground and then stood up again.
Even though one of its front paws was broken, its eyes were still shining with a vicious glint, and it lunged towards Li Fei.
Rawr!
The Feral bellowed, and another three feral cats and dogs lunged towards Li Fei.
After all, Li Fei had just awakened his superstrength not too long ago and did not have much experience in actual combat. He could handle one or two Ferals with his weapon and strength, but he was having a hard time against four.
"Aaaaaargh!"
"What the hell …"
He screamed and panicked, and was flung to the ground by a dog's tail. He could not help panicking. "Jiang He, save me …"
Once Jiang He moved, the other three Ferals that had been staring at him promptly lunged at him.
He punched out, killing all three Ferals at once, and went up to kick the head of a Feral cat that was about to bite Li Fei. Then, with a tap of his foot, he picked up Li Fei's metal staff and caught it in his hand.
The remaining three Ferals were stunned, and slowly backed away, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at Jiang He.
"These beasts are very smart!"
"Could their intelligence have evolved as well as the Ferals' evolution?"
From the moment the four Ferals attacked Li Fei and the other three that were staring at him to now, the Ferals were afraid of him, Jiang He quickly came to a conclusion. "Still, these Ferals are only rank-one. Even if their intelligence had evolved, it wouldn't be that high!"
Staff in hand, he advanced, and the three Ferals bellowed in fear before turning to flee.
Jiang He strode after them.
Though he did not know any form techniques, his rank-three intermediate physique was there for all to see. He was much faster than the three rank-one Ferals when he burst out at full power, and caught up to one of them in three seconds, killing it with a single blow of his staff.
Then, the second, and the third.
Putting away his staff, Jiang He strode back, shaking his head. "Rank-one Ferals generally have low intelligence, or I would have killed at most two of them if they had split up … Huh? That dumbass is only rank-one, so why is it so smart?"
He returned to Li Fei.
Li Fei's eyes widened as he studied Jiang He from head to toe, asking seriously, "Are you a beast tamer or not, Jiang He?"
"I'm a beast tamer!"
Jiang He replied seriously. "Could you not see my beast-taming technique?"
Li Fei did a double take, and asked by reflex, "What beast-taming technique?"
"Be obedient and live. Otherwise, I'll kill them all!"
