Roar! Roar!

Ji Ye was following the “ghosts” for about 5 km when he heard the ferocious growls of a tiger up ahead.

Although he was 500 m behind them, after learning Yan Qing's True Seer, Ji Ye's senses had been greatly heightened. Through the wind blowing in his direction, he made out a conversation.

“How dare you people enter the Manor of Beasts in the middle of the night without any permission?!”

There were another few tiger growls, followed by the neighboring startled horses.

“The ghosts of Western Mountain are pa.s.sing by. We apologize for not greeting you in person!”

It was an old voice.

The conversation grew quieter after that.

“The ghosts of Western Mountain never go around! We will take the straight route!”

Someone shouted a few seconds later.

Roar! Grrrr! Woo…

After that, there was the sound of tigers, leopards, and even wolves and elephants. A fire was burning somewhere.

“So, it has started. That means that the background and plot have pretty much stayed the same. Well, maybe it's because we're on a large-scale Battlefield of Providence…”

Ji Ye's heart stirred.

Elder Meng had revealed something.

In the original book, although the ghosts were going to challenge Yang Guo now, they ran into a force known as the Manor of Beasts, who had blocked their way.

After that, they started throwing punches after some altercations.

Ji Ye had chosen to follow them all the way here to meet Yang Guo, but it was also for this Manor of Beasts.

The ghosts and the manor were only supporting roles in the book.

But the latter was quite special.

The masters of the manor were five brothers. The oldest was s.h.i.+ Bowei, the White Forehead Tiger; the second brother was s.h.i.+ Zhongmeng, the Spotted Leopard; the third was s.h.i.+ Shugang, the Blue Armor Lion; the fourth was s.h.i.+ Jiqiang, the Mighty Elephant; and the fifth was s.h.i.+ Mengjie, the Eight-armed Monkey. For generations, their ancestors had been making a living by taming animals.

The five brothers of this generation were all gifted. They were not only superb in taming animals, but they had also developed excellent skills by observing the fighting of wild animals.

Of them, s.h.i.+ Shugang, the third one of the brothers and the strongest, had a wondrous encounter when he went to catch beasts in the mountain in his twenties. He met a mysterious person who taught him an amazing inner energy skill. He then taught it to his brothers when he went home.

After that, they tamed and raised many beasts, and their martial arts skills grew stronger. The Manor of Beasts became famous.

To the Twin Dragon Mount, these five people were doubtlessly very valuable.

In the Land of Inheritance, monsters and rare beasts were more numerous and powerful than they were in this world.

If they weren't in need of the EXP and resources, killing rare beasts like the Steelback Blue Wolf or Golden Condor wouldn't be the most ideal choice.

If Ji Ye could summon the brothers of tiger, leopard, lion, elephant, and monkey to the Twin Dragon Mount, they would be a lot more useful than normal heroes.

Moreover, in the original book, the manor had raised thousands of beasts, if not tens of thousands.

If such a power could be used in this war, it would be equivalent to thousands of elite soldiers. They could be even more powerful than those of the Twin Dragon Mount who had entered the battlefield.

“But if the Manor of Beasts already have such power, how are we going to subdue them?”

Mister Bug asked Elder Meng this question in Andu Inn earlier.

“That's not hard. In the book, the s.h.i.+ brothers were hunting at night because Blue Armor Lion, the third and most powerful of the brothers, was suffering from an internal injury inflicted by an ambush of Huodu, the prince of Mongolia and pupil of Golden Wheel Guardian King. To treat it, he had to drink the blood of the Nine-tailed Fox.

“But the perimeters they set up were disrupted by the intrusion of the “ghosts” and their horses. The fire they set off made the fox run away. Since the master has the Healing talent, he can help the lion king and treat his wound. After that, we can..”

Elder Meng stroked his beard and looked like a perfectly shrewd counselor.

However, to Ji Ye, he was more interested in the Nine-tailed Fox that was hunted by the manor.

That name itself promised something extraordinary!

In fact, it was a spectacular creature in the book. It had the bloodline of the Nine-tailed Fox of the ancient time. It had amazing eyes that could see through all illusions, and its tails also had special power (again, this parallel universe was fantasy wuxia rather than wuxia only).

Of course, this was a Battlefield of Providence where powers had been weakened, so this fox couldn't be too out of the ordinary.

Theoretically, just like the seed of the thousand-year tree demon, it should have the potential to rise to the Transcendent level. More importantly, according to Elder Meng, there were a pair of such foxes in this Battlefield of Providence.

That was to say, if they could gain the fox's friends.h.i.+p just like they did with Husky, they might bring another powerful beast to the Twin Dragon Mount.

“d.a.m.n it! The fox is out!”

Ji Ye still paid attention to the confrontation while he was thinking.

Just then, he heard surprised shouts, followed by a flash of white light coming from those people toward him.

It was a small, white animal the size of a dog. It moved as fast as a streak of lightning. Even a cheetah, the fastest animal, couldn't catch up with it.

“Arw?”

However, the small animal suddenly halted, because a river with rapid currents appeared out of nowhere, blocking its way.

It was as if the Yellow River, which was kilometers away, had been moved here.

“Aw, aw…”

The white beast suddenly stopped by the river and studied the river. Its beady eyes were fiery red and looked like two sparks.

Whoos.h.!.+

It then jumped onto it, and its gait was completely unaffected as it ran on the water.

It was as if it had the most advanced alacrity skill and disappeared into the river like a flash of white light.

“Ha… ha…”

A few steps behind it, the cheetahs chasing it all stopped by the river and stepped back and forth, roaring in frustration.

Behind them, the yellow eyes of the leopards shone with confusion in the dark.

Because the next second, the rus.h.i.+ng river suddenly disappeared, and the ground was clear, but the white beast was nowhere to be seen.

“We've lost the fox! My cats couldn't catch up with it!”

“d.a.m.n it! The ghosts will answer for this!”

“If we can't save my brother, those people will pay with their lives!”
