This Eclipse Panther was only a Third Grade Mystical Beast. Among the Eclipse Panthers, it could only be considered a newborn cub. It should not have any combat power.
Although it was in the third level, its combat power was definitely not.
However, the claw just now had stunned Yun Yang for a moment.
Even a fully grown third level mystical beast would not be able to do such a thing!
What was going on?
"Emmie, what's going on?" Yun Yang asked, confused.
In his subconscious, Emmie swayed happily, its two tentacles dancing in the air as it explained to Yun Yang with its tentacles.
Emmie was easily satisfied.
As long as Yun Yang could enter his deific consciousness to talk to it and accompany it for a while, it would dance excitedly. It had no other requests. Of course, it would be even better if there was an endless supply of vitality that came in every day.
Yun Yang finally understood.
The air of vitality that Emmie exuded was a great blessing to mystical beasts, even if it was just a sliver. It could change a mystical beast's aptitude and speed up its advancement; it could even allow a mystical beast to be reborn and reach new heights.
As for these little fellows, they were by Yun Yang's side every day, bathing in the air of vitality. How could they not grow quickly?
Although there would not be an obvious change in their size, their entire body, including their intelligence, would be completely different from their peers.
"Does this mean that the Eclipse Panther is basically equivalent to a human third heaven expert?" Yun Yang's eyes were filled with stars. If that was the case, it would be great.
Emmie obviously did not know what the 'human third heaven expert' that Yun Yang was talking about was. Its confused tendrils swayed for a while before it retracted and began to coil itself around Yun Yang, like a child pestering an adult for delicious food.
Yun Yang sighed.
He knew that the blood-colored lingzhi mushroom that Marquis Yun had given him just now was lost.
He handed it over helplessly. "I don't even know what kind of medicinal herb this is …"
Just as he was mumbling to himself, he saw the blood-colored lingzhi mushroom in his hand turn into powder with a swoosh.
The corners of Yun Yang's lips twitched.
It ate it too quickly!
In his subconscious, Emmie swayed happily, its tendrils curling up a huge ball of pink spiritual energy and stuffed it directly into the soil at its roots.
Then, it seemed even happier.
His body was visibly thicker than before.
The thin vines rolled up balls of green life aura at their roots and played around in the air.
With a flick from time to time, the air of vitality would flow to Yun Yang, causing him to shake his head and wriggle in joy. The little guy was full …
Yun Yang sat on the bed in a good mood and began to cultivate.
The four little fellows began to surround him again, leaning against Yun Yang quietly.
When Yun Yang woke up from his meditative state, there was still warmth in his embrace. It was the return of the other Eclipse Panther but it had already left without a sound.
For the next few days, everything was peaceful.
…
Yun Yang still did not know that too many things had happened in the area protected by the tiny Eclipse Panther.
At least seventy or eighty local ruffians were found dead on the street. Every one of them had their throats scratched by the claws of some kind of mystical beast.
So many people had suddenly been attacked and killed by Xuan Beasts, and it had happened consecutively in the past few days. Naturally, it would raise the alarm.
The officials investigated everyone in the area, and everyone was dumbfounded.
He didn't know.
He really didn't know.
Mystical beast? Are you kidding me? We're all poor here, who could afford to keep a mystical beast?
What's more, such a powerful mystical beast …
What? You're asking me what I think? There's nothing to say. It's good that they died. These ruffians were heartless, they died a good death, they died a wonderful death.
During the investigation, the officials discovered that all of the hooligans who had died seemed to have one thing in common before they died, and that was … they had bullied innocent people!
Or, they had molested women …
Could it be that this mystical beast knew to enforce justice on behalf of heaven? But wasn't it a little too ruthless?
A few of the ruffians had only spoken harshly and pushed a few handicapped people, but they were not injured. However, they were still killed by the mystical beast's claws!
In the past few days, the officers had been living in this area. Moreover, in order to solve the case, they had specially found a few hooligans in this area who were scared out of their wits. They were told to bully people and attract the murderer, the Xuan Beast.
However, when the night came and the bait had died, there was still no clue.
The officials were in a terrible predicament.
The matter was too serious!
Of course, when the officials were handling the case, there would naturally be people watching. Sometimes, when they were examining the corpses, there would be a circle of people …
Sometimes, there was also a pretty little girl with a cute and lazy kitten in her arms. She also timidly went over to watch the show …
But when the crowd saw it, they all scolded, "Hurry up and go home, little girl, what are you doing …"
As for the kitten in the little girl's arms, there was naturally no doubt …
Such a weak kitten that was obviously not even a month old, what was there to be suspicious of?
The eyes of the kitten looked at the two legged humans in front of it, and after a glance, it closed its eyes.
This was naturally done by the little thing.
Master asked me to guard … then I will guard well. Master said I can't let the people here be bullied … then whoever dares to bully people, I will give him a claw …
As for whether the person should die or not, the severity of the crime, and so on, naturally it was not the little thing's consideration. It definitely could not think of such complicated things.
It was simply carrying out its master's orders!
If you dare to bully people, I will claw you to death!
Obviously, there would not be a single clue in such a case, no matter how the investigation was carried out! An Eclipse Panther that had already reached the fourth level, one that was constantly mutating, killing a few ruffians would be a piece of cake, effortless. In addition, there would not be a single trace left behind …
…
In these few days, Yun Yang would interrogate Chu Tianlang whenever he had the time. Again and again, he would ask the same questions from different angles.
After he was done, he would go to Li Changqiu for comparison …
Chu Tianlang was almost driven mad from the torture. Each time, he would beg, "Give me a quick death … I really can't take it anymore …"
During this period of time, Yun Yang had also collected too much information on the officials and soldiers, including those in His Highness' residence. He had created a file on each and every one of them.
These things flowed endlessly into his hands.
Then, he filtered them carefully, going through them one by one. Other than the information from the palace that had yet to be sent over, the rest of the information had already filled up a secret room.
After continuously interrogating Chu Tianlang for seven to eight times, Yun Yang was finally cautious enough to confirm that what Chu Tianlang had said was all true!
"An advisor in the Residence of Crown Prince … if my analysis is correct, it must be one of these three people. As for the mysterious general, it's a little hard to confirm but the General of the Northern Garrison must be one of these generals … the one in the palace is temporarily out of reach … "
"That official has no clue as well."
"What's more, it's important to note that there must be more than just these few people involved! There must be other people that Chu Tianlang doesn't know about lying in ambush. "
"If we act rashly and alert the enemy, things will get out of hand."
Yun Yang felt like his head had grown three times bigger as he combed through the information.
However, he did not plan to wait any longer, nor did he want to continue analyzing.
He was going to act.
However, there was still something that Yun Yang did not understand. Why hadn't Dong Tianleng come over these few days? Had he won? With this fellow's personality, if he had won, wouldn't he be bragging to the world?
It was not normal for him to be so calm.
Also, why had the young masters of the four noble families such as Ximen not made any moves after dealing with Chu Tianlang?
Yun Yang had thought that those fellows would at least come to test him out, but no one had done so.
This made Yun Yang feel that something was not right.
The third thing that he did not understand was that Ji Ling's best friends had come to visit him once, but they had not been there. This did not seem to match the temperament of these unruly girls.
However, these thoughts were just a flash in Yun Yang's mind.
Holding his brush, he looked at the hundreds of names that he had listed and finally said softly, "Let's start with this so-called General of the Northern Garrison!"
This was also the one that he had the most confidence in.
"The Four Seasons Tower is powerful indeed. However, as long as one wants to go against him, there will come a day when all of them will be caught!" Yun Yang thought to himself, "Capturing Li Changqiu will bring Chu Tianlang out, and Chu Tianlang will bring a few others out … If this goes on, one day …"
"I have patience!"
Yun Yang's gaze was cold.
In these few days, Fang Mofei's body had mostly recovered and his cultivation base had mostly recovered as well. This made Yun Yang feel a little more confident.
"Old Fang, follow me to do something," Yun Yang arranged.
Fang Mofei walked out excitedly.
Both of them left the Residence of Yun early in the morning. Yun Yang's purple robe was still fluttering as he walked towards the Cirrus House in the city.
The Cirrus House's business was booming as usual.
The music was melodious and pleasing to the ears.
Knowing that Yun Yang had arrived, Yun Zuiyue left the guests behind and brought Yun Yang to the highest floor. This was a treatment that no one else could enjoy.
The other guests curled their lips.
Isn't this Marquis Yun's young master? A pretty boy is indeed popular, being treated with the highest standard the moment he arrived. I have to say, this child is really handsome. No wonder Lady Zuiyue is attracted to him. Sigh, who asked my parents to not give me a good look?
"Young brother, is there any news?" Yun Zuiyue looked more haggard than the last time they met.
"No." Yun Yang felt another pang in his heart.
Looking at Yun Zuiyue's pain, Yun Yang had wanted to tell her the truth so that she would not have to wait so hopelessly.
However, after thinking about it for a long time, he dismissed the idea.
Perhaps, she could continue living in this hope. If he were to tell her the truth … Yun Yang could not imagine what would happen.
Yun Yang had already understood the character of this woman who was as unwavering as fire the last time. If something regretful happened because he had told the truth …
However, Yun Yang's conscience would be tormented if he kept silent and kept looking at Yun Zuiyue like this.
If it was not necessary, he really did not want to see Yun Zuiyue, this heart-wrenching woman, being so heartbroken.
