“Alright, if you’re not familiar with the way, just ask someone to guide you. Now, you’re a hero of our Crimson Flame City, and everyone is more than willing to assist you,” Qiu Moyuan smiled.

Gu Qingluan found Fei Yi in the forest.

Under its claws was a battered Crimson Blaze Tiger, covered in bruises and injuries.

The tiger lay there, half-dead, and angrily scolded, “You spineless creature! What’s there to be proud of? A mighty saint beast acknowledging a human as its master! Don’t you know how many people are laughing at you from the shadows?”

Fei Yi sensed Gu Qingluan’s arrival and gave the tiger a sharp pat on the back of its head with its paw. “You understand nothing! My master is the most beautiful and powerful woman in the world. If she considers you, this ugly creature, as her master, it would be a surprise! She wouldn’t even glance at you, you ugly beast!”

Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but smirk. Fei Yi was quite the cunning one, capable of both praise and mockery.

“Master, you’ve arrived!” Fei Yi raised its head, its eyes shining brightly as it looked at her. “Master, this is the Crimson Blaze Tiger that tried to harm me. Are you planning to draw its blood first, or peel its skin? Master, you don’t have to be merciful; this ugly thing has a wicked heart and a strong aversion to humans. Keeping it would be a disaster.”

These two beasts were usually at odds, and this time, the Crimson Blaze Tiger had taken advantage of Fei Yi’s weakened state to provoke it, nearly getting killed by Gu Qingluan’s sword in the process. This left Fei Yi seething with frustration.

If it didn’t have to wait for Gu Qingluan to make a decision, it would have already beaten the other to a pulp.

Seeing Fei Yi’s fawning behavior, the Crimson Blaze Tiger sneered, “Humph! Sycophant!”

Fei Yi swiped at it with a claw and retorted, “Now it’s not your turn to speak!”

Crimson Blaze Tiger’s face was instantly marked with several claw wounds. It glared angrily at Fei Yi, eager to retaliate.

However, its body was firmly pinned to the ground by Fei Yi’s strength, making it impossible for it to break free.

Fei Yi felt a sense of triumph within, thinking to himself, “No wonder the master likes to use this move when subduing enemies, crushing them beneath her feet. It’s incredibly satisfying!”

Gu Qingluan cast a glance at the Crimson Blaze Tiger.

It was a third-grade Saint Beast, the same level as Fei Yi before its recent advancement.

This explained why they had become mortal enemies, with evenly matched strength, unable to defeat each other.

At this moment, the Crimson Blaze Tiger could only passively endure the beating.

Since there was enmity between it and Fei Yi, Gu Qingluan had no intention of trying to tame it. She signaled for Fei Yi to finish it off so they could leave this place.

“Master! Please accept me!”

Suddenly, the Crimson Blaze Tiger transformed into a smaller form, taking advantage of Fei Yi’s delayed reaction to swiftly approach Gu Qingluan.

Its tail wagged happily, resembling a cute little kitten with wet, innocent eyes. The ferocious wounds on its body, instead of making it appear ugly, added a touch of pitiful charm.

“Damn it! Crafty tiger, you’re playing dirty!”

As the Crimson Blaze Tiger shrank in size, Fei Yi’s foot landed on empty space.

When Fei Yi realized what had just happened, it felt like its lungs were about to explode.

What had it just said earlier?

It talked about not having dignity, being servile, and fearing mockery from other beasts.

And now?

Upon spotting the master, it immediately approached, behaving like an overly eager, tail-wagging puppy, displaying utter shamelessness.

Fei Yi immediately pounced, wanting to crush this cunning and sly creature that had no integrity.

“Master, save me!”

The Crimson Blaze Tiger quickly hid beside Gu Qingluan with a sly move.

After transforming into a mimetic form, the Crimson Blaze Tiger’s voice also turned into a cute, childlike tone.

At this moment, it appeared as if it were a pitiable little creature chased by a ferocious beast, easily touching one’s soft heart.

Fei Yi couldn’t believe how cunningly it sought shelter with the master, and it made him absolutely disgusted.

What a loathsome creature!
