"I didn't think the young Chi You had such a good temperament."
Li Mo couldn't help but nod as he watched from afar.
Back when Wu Ye and the rest stole Chi You's earth qi jades, they almost beat him to death.
At the time, Li Mo thought the mid grade earth qi jades, worth a thousand low grade spirit stones, were very important to Chi You. That was why Chi You fought so hard.
But now it seemed Chi You only wanted the earth qi jades for the Iron Eater to eat.
Seeing the Iron Eater chewing on the mid grade earth qi jades, Chi You rubbed its head as if having a heart-to-heart talk with a good friend.
"It wasn't easy for me to find such delicious food for you, fat ball.
But a few days ago, Wu Ye and the rest almost took it. Luckily, a nice big brother came to our camp and helped me get it back. "
Fat Ball was clearly the name of the Iron-Eating Beast.
The fat ball couldn't help but stretch out its paw to hug Chi You. It looked so cute.
"Chi You!"
At this moment, a loud shout sounded out, and then a young man with a disdainful expression walked over from afar with more than ten guards.
Li Mo was no stranger to this youth. He was Wu Ye, the second elder of the Falling Mountain Camp, Wu Yi, the eldest son of the Liu clan.
"You …"
Seeing Wu Ye's group walking over, Chi You couldn't help but be taken a step back.
Even if Chi You was the future Godfiend Chi You, the current Chi You was only a fifteen-year-old child.
So when he saw so many people, and that Wu Ye who bullied him every day, Chi You felt a trace of fear.
But even so, Chi You still shielded the young Iron-Eater behind him.
The Iron Eater's round eyes peered through the gap between Chi You's legs at Wu Ye and the rest. Its young body was shivering.
The distant Li Mo wanted to laugh. Though this was a young Iron Eater, only in the early Spirit Luring Stage, it was nothing compared to a young Iron Eater.
But as a descendant of a sacred beast, it shouldn't be any weaker than Wu Ye's mid Spirit Channeling Stage, right?
As for Wu Ye's early Spirit Channeling Stage underlings, they were no match for it.
But why was this young Iron Eater so scared?
"Humph!
Last time you colluded with Li Mo and dared to attack me!
I'll deal with that Li Mo in a few days!
I'll teach you a lesson today as interest! "
Wu Ye snorted and said.
Even if Chi You didn't attack Wu Ye that day, Li Mo did it for Chi You. Wu Ye bore a grudge against Chi You.
"Go!"
Then, Wu Ye took a step back and allowed his guards to step forward.
Wu Ye was the eldest son of the second elder in the Hillfall Mountain Stronghold. His status was illustrious, so Wu Ye disdained to attack Chi You who had no status at all.
"As for that little bastard, I'll beat him up and give him to my father!
It just so happens that my father likes these delicacies. "
Wu Ye smiled contemptuously from behind. The little bastard that Wu Ye was referring to was naturally the Iron-Eating Beast.
"I'll kill you!"
It was one thing for Wu Ye to bully Chi You with his status and cultivation.
Today, Wu Ye actually wanted to kill Fat Ball, Chi You's only good friend.
Therefore, Chi You couldn't take it anymore. Chi You shouted and rushed forward.
But between Chi You and Wu Ye were a dozen guards in the early stage of the Spirit Drawing Realm.
How could these guards watch as Chi You rushed to their Young Master's side? Thus, more than ten of them acted decisively.
"Pff!
Pff!
Pff … "
For a moment, Chi You was sent flying.
Chi You was only in the 9th stage of the Body Tempering Stage. No matter how firm Chi You's heart was, no matter how strong his Primordial Demon God Body was.
But with such a huge disparity in cultivation and numbers, even if the guards didn't kill him, Chi You couldn't take a single punch from each of them.
So Chi You gritted his teeth when he hit the ground, blood flowing out of his mouth.
Chi You's palms trembled as he tried to stand up.
However, his injuries were too severe, and he couldn't stand up at all.
"He-he …"
The group of guards walked towards Chi You with evil smiles on their faces. What these guards loved to do the most every day was to follow Wu Ye and bully the weak in the stronghold.
"Ao!"
At this moment, the Iron Eater Fat Ball flew into a rage.
The fat ball's roar shook the forest. It was like the king of the mountains.
Behind the fat ball, there was a patch of darkness, and a huge grey shadow was faintly discernible.
This blurry grey shadow's appearance couldn't be seen, but its silhouette was similar to the fat ball.
Li Mo's eyes widened as he felt the pressure coming from the figure. He said, "What's the meaning of this? What's the meaning of this?
"Pixiu!"
Li Mo couldn't see the grey shadow's appearance and body, but from the silhouette and the pressure, he knew it was one of the ten sacred beasts, Pixiu!
Even Eggy, who was standing to the side, had a serious expression on her face when she saw the phantom. She no longer had her previous cheerful appearance.
Eggy came from the Demon God race. It stood to reason that the Demon God race and the ancient sacred beasts were equal.
However, this Pi Xiu was able to become one of the Ten Great Ancient Mythological Beasts, so Eggy also felt a wave of pressure from the Pi Xiu.
This pressure was different from the one Li Mo felt. Eggy's pressure came from her bloodline.
This meant that Eggy's race leader fought with the Pixiu race for a while, which was why her bloodline had this pressure.
"It's showing signs of atavism. This means this Iron Eater has nearly half of its Pixiu bloodline.
But whether it can truly atavism and become a Pixiu will depend on luck. "
Li Mo muttered. Back then, Li Mo wanted Wei Jianguo to atavism, to have the Pixiu bloodline.
But when he thought of how he raised Wei Jianguo, Li Mo's heart filled with tears.
'That Wei Jianguo is too stupid!'
However, this Iron Eater was different. This Iron Eater did not require much nurturing.
Because it had a lot of Pixiu's bloodline in it. What this little Iron Eater needed was luck. If luck came, it would most likely evolve into a Pixiu.
"Ao!"
Pang Qiu, who was originally timid, saw his good friend being beaten up, and immediately exploded.
Immediately after, Fat Ball raised its fists and charged at Chi You's guards. However, Fat Ball's Pi Xiu bloodline had reacted because of its anger.
But now, as Fat Ball moved, the Pi Xiu bloodline in Fat Ball's body quietened down again.
Even the image behind him had disappeared. Therefore, Fat Ball's attack at this moment was really much more bark than bite.
When Fat Tiger attacked, the dozen or so guards stopped attacking Chi You and turned to attack Fat Ball.
