In the Myriad Poison Mountains, Jianchen quickly made his way to the agreed location with Rum Guinness. With the speed of the Illusory Flash, he arrived very quickly.
Not long after Jianchen arrived, a white figure leapt over from the distance. It was as fast as a streak of light, only slightly slower than Jianchen with the Illusory Flash.
In just a few seconds, the white figure stopped in front of Jianchen. It was Rum Guinness in her beast form again.
Rum Guinness gently looked at the tiger in Jianchen's arms. Her eyes were filled with reluctance as she sighed, "Your strength really does surprise me. So many people couldn't stop you. I heard those people say that your name is Jianchen, right?"
"Yes, my name is Jianchen," Jianchen calmly replied.
"Then I'll call you Jianchen in the future. Jianchen, I can't use any power right now. I can only rely on my physical strength, so I won't be able to help you in the future. In order to prevent the kings of the Gilligan clan from finding me, I need to find a remote place to hide in the coming days, so I'll leave my child in your care." Rum Guinness spoke the human language. Perhaps it was because of its tiger form, but it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman from its voice.
Jianchen solemnly nodded, "Don't worry, I'll definitely take good care of your child. Once I have the power to purge the dark energy in your body, I'll come find you." With that, Jianchen thought of something and asked, "Oh right, how do I find you in the future?"
The white tiger plucked a strand of hair from its body and dripped a droplet of blood on it, dyeing it red. It then passed it to Jian Chen and said, "If you want to find me, then let my child drip a droplet of blood on this strand of hair. This strand of hair will guide you."
Jianchen carefully accepted the strand of fur and stored it away.
"Jianchen, the things you've drawn on your face can fool a few Heaven Saint Masters, but they can't fool Saint Rulers and Class 7 Magical Beasts like us. You need to be careful in the future," the tiger suddenly said.
With that, Jian Chen wiped his face and bitterly smiled. His disguise was flawless, able to fool everyone. No one could see through his disguise, but he had never thought that it would be useless before a Saint Ruler.
The white tiger glanced at its child one last time before bidding farewell to Jian Chen and disappearing from Jian Chen's sight very soon.
"Wuu wuu … wuu wuu … wuu wuu …" The little tiger in Jianchen's arms closed its eyes and whimpered. It was unknown whether it was sad for its mother's departure or bidding farewell to its mother. Its short limbs unconsciously struggled in Jianchen's arms, as if it wanted to stand up with its own strength.
Jianchen gently stroked the little tiger's furry head with his right hand, as if he was comforting it. His gaze towards the little tiger also became gentler.
Jianchen didn't stay for long and quickly left. He knew that the Ten Thousand Poisons Mountain Range was no longer safe, so he couldn't stay here any longer. Therefore, he moved very quickly, his feet barely touching the ground. Using the trees on both sides as support, he quickly shot off into the distance.
After Jianchen left, a large group of people still gathered outside the cave where the tiger had been. They were unwilling to leave, and the leaders of the various forces were all shaking their heads and sighing with disappointment. A Class 6 Magical Beast cub had appeared in front of them, but in the end, it had been snatched away by the Mercenary King Jianchen, who had won first place in the Mercenary Tournament. This made them feel extremely unwilling.
Suddenly, a huge aura rapidly spread from the distance, enveloping the entire mountain range. The people gathered below were immediately alarmed, and each of them had a serious expression as they looked around for the owner of this aura.
Very quickly, a burst of whistling sounds could be heard. An old man with white hair and a ruddy complexion was flying over from the distance, and finally hovered above the people's heads. A pair of eyes as sharp as an eagle's coldly looked down on the people below, without the slightest trace of emotion, as if he was the high and mighty king.
"Heaven Saint Master, that's actually a Heaven Saint Master."
A small commotion broke out in the crowd, one after another, forcibly suppressed cries of surprise rang out from the crowd. Everyone raised their heads to look at the sky, and one after another, their gazes were filled with envy, yearning, fear, worship, and other complex emotions as they gathered on the old man.
Seeing this old man, the people of the Heiyun clan were all overjoyed. The leader immediately knelt down and said, "Bai Yuanjin of the Heiyun clan greets the ancestor."
"We greet the ancestor." The people of the Heiyun clan all followed elder Bai's example and knelt down on both knees, all of them emotionally shouting.
The old man hovering in the air glanced around and said indifferently, "Where's the cub of the Class 6 Magical Beast?"
"Reporting to the ancestor, the cub of the Class 6 Magical Beast has been taken away by someone." Elder Bai said, and then worriedly looked at the old Heaven Saint Master hovering in the air.
Hearing this, a light flashed through the eyes of the ancestor of the Heiyun clan. He said, "I wonder which organization has taken it."
"Ancestor, the one who took the cub of the Class 6 Magical Beast is the champion of this year's Mercenary Tournament, Jianchen. He is very powerful, and his speed is also very fast. Even with so many of us, we were unable to stop him." Elder Bai said.
"Jianchen, it's actually him."
The ancestor of the Heiyun clan frowned, and hesitated for a while. Then a harsh light flashed through his eyes, and he asked, "Where did Jianchen escape to?"
"Over there!" Elder Bai pointed in the direction Jianchen had escaped. Now, he could only place all of his hopes on the ancestor. Whether or not the Heiyun clan could obtain the cub of the Class 6 Magical Beast would all depend on him.
The ancestor of the Heiyun clan immediately flew in the direction elder Bai had pointed, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Quick, immediately report this to the sect. Now we can only ask for the ancestor's help."
"Quickly send a few people back and report this to the patriarch. Ask him to make a decision."
… …
The appearance of the Heaven Saint Master of the Heiyun clan had stimulated all the other organizations, and they all began to send people back to the clan to report this matter.
At this moment, Jianchen was using the Illusory Flash to quickly travel through the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range. He did not travel in a straight line, but would change directions from time to time to prevent people from chasing after him.
Two hours later, Jianchen had already traveled over a hundred kilometers through the steep mountain range, and arrived at the edge of the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range. He then found a secluded place to hide his presence, and placed the sleeping White Tiger beside his feet, and began to recover his overused Saint Force.
After the previous battle, Jianchen had used up two-thirds of his Saint Force in just two hours to escape using the Illusory Flash. Now that his identity had been exposed, and with the possibility of a Heaven Saint Master chasing after him, Jianchen needed to preserve his battle prowess at all times.
The White Tiger was only the size of a puppy, and it was currently snoring by Jian Chen's feet. The pair of snow-white wings on its back were tightly folded. If one didn't look carefully, they would be hard to notice.
Jianchen sat cross-legged on the ground, and with the help of the Sword Spirits, he absorbed the energy within the monster cores at an unbelievable speed to recover his Saint Force. His entire body was covered by weeds, so it was very hard to notice him.
Four hours later, a sound of air being torn rang out, and a grey robed figure quickly flew over Jianchen's head, disappearing very quickly.
Jianchen, who was recovering his Saint Force, naturally noticed the figure flying over his head. His heart tightened, and he thought to himself, "So fast, that's probably a Heaven Saint Master of the Heiyun clan. I never thought that after changing so many paths, he would still be able to catch up to me. Fortunately, I hid well."
Thinking up to here, Jianchen's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and his face immediately changed. He thought to himself, "Not good, I've probably been discovered." Jianchen immediately leapt up from the weeds, and using the Illusory Flash, he fled into the distance like a bolt of lightning.
He had just been absorbing the energy within the monster cores to recover his Saint Force, and at such a close distance, the ripples of energy would definitely not be able to escape the notice of a Heaven Saint Master.
Sure enough, as soon as Jianchen left, the Heaven Saint Master who had just flown over Jianchen returned. He immediately discovered Jianchen who had already fled three kilometers away, and without another word, chased after him with all his strength.
Jianchen used the Illusory Flash with all his strength, and quickly traversed through the Thousand Poisons Mountain Range. However, the terrain of the mountain range was complex, and it was not as open as the plains, so he was unable to fully utilize the advantage of the Illusory Flash. He was simply unable to catch up to the Heaven Saint Master who was flying in the sky, and the distance between the two was rapidly closing.
Seeing the Heaven Saint Master chasing after him, Jianchen's eyes flashed with a trace of ruthlessness. He immediately stopped running, and with his left hand holding the sleeping tiger, he stood there with a serious expression on his face as he stared at the Heaven Saint Master who was rapidly approaching him. In his right hand, he had already taken out the Light Wind Sword, which emitted a faint purple and green light.
After four hours of recuperation, Jian Chen's Saint Force had mostly recovered. Since he couldn't escape, he might as well give it a try. Furthermore, he had never fought against a Heaven Saint Master before, so he could use this opportunity to test the Heaven Saint Master's strength.
