Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 3923-here comes the saboteur

According to normal logic, carrying a ghost-eyed Golden Eagle Cub in the back mountain would not only slow him down, but it would also make it easy for other people and spirit beasts to target him. He might even be discovered by the ghost-eyed Golden eagle in the sky. The consequences were unimaginable.

What made Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai feel helpless was that the outer area of the back mountain was as vast as the ocean, and they didn't have time to make an agreement with Lin Yi. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack if they wanted to find Lin Yi with their strength.

Fortunately, the two of them weren't stupid enough to only look for Lin Yi. Other than collecting the treasures they came across on the way, Xiao ran also had to pay attention to all kinds of spirit beasts they came across. Qiao hongcai had found a spirit pet, but his talismans were still in his hands.

With Qiao hongcai's ghost-eyed Golden Eaglet in front of him, Xiao ran's vision couldn't be too low. Not only must they have strength, but they must also have potential. Therefore, it was difficult for ordinary spirit beasts to catch his eye.

Although there were many spirit beasts in the back mountain, it wasn't easy to find one that met both conditions and was within the range of a low-level spirit pet talisman.

Unless Xiao ran was like Qiao hongcai, who specialized in targeting the young of some powerful spirit beasts, he would be able to meet these requirements. However, the risks involved were not something he could afford with his current strength.

Fortunately, Xiao ran had always been calm and wasn't too eager for quick success. Even if he hadn't found someone he liked yet, he wasn't in a hurry. There were times in life that one had to have, and there were no times in life that one could not force.

Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai wandered around the periphery of the back mountain. However, what was unexpected was that they didn't meet Lin Yi, but their nemesis, Meng Tong's group.

At this moment, the group of newcomers led by Meng Tong was on high alert, especially Meng Tong. He was so nervous that he was drenched in cold sweat and did not even dare to breathe.

There was no other reason. Meng Tong was trying to tame a spirit beast. He had forced a group of people to spend ten days before they finally found the perfect target for him.

The Black-backed rod ape was one of the rare spiritual beasts that could use weapons naturally. Its adult strength could reach the early stage of the foundation building realm. The one that Meng Tong had his eyes on was a near-adult that had just left its parents 'protection. Its strength was at the peak of the late stage of the Sky Class.

For Meng Tong, this black back rod ape was like a meat pie that fell from the sky. He was afraid that there was no other spiritual pet more suitable for him than this. There was only one problem at the moment. Could the low-level spiritual pet talisman in his hand subdue this black back rod ape?

Li Zhengming stood on top of the tree and watched coldly. Under Meng Tong's lead, the Black-backed rod ape had been surrounded by his group. There was no way for it to escape, and it had been seriously injured in many places. It was no longer as fierce as it was at the beginning.

The chances of success were not high if he wanted to tame a Sky Class late phase peak spirit beast with just a low level spirit pet talisman, but if the black back stick ape had lost its will to resist, it was still very likely that Meng Tong would succeed.

Meng Tong had already begun to subdue it. If nothing unexpected happened, the result would be out within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Seeing all this, Lee Zheng Ming could not help but feel anxious. There was no doubt about the strength of the Black-backed rod ape. If it was equipped with a good rod-type weapon, it would be invincible among ordinary spirit beasts of the same level.

If Meng Tong could successfully tame this Sky Class late phase peak black back rod ape, he would be able to secure first place in this spiritual pet assessment without a doubt.

Li Zhengming, of course, didn't want to let him get away with it so easily, but there were too many people here. If he tried to sabotage the plan, he'd be exposed easily. As an important spy under Meng jueguang, it wouldn't be worth it to expose himself just for such a small matter.

But if this continued, once Meng Tong successfully tamed him, even Lin Yi might not be able to deal with him in a spiritual pet battle. After all, it was a spiritual pet battle, so it didn't matter how strong Lin Yi was.

Just as Lee Zhengming was caught in a dilemma, Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai happened to pass by not far away.

In fact, according to their original route, they would not have encountered Meng Tong's group. Under normal circumstances, they would have just passed by each other. However, now that Lee Zhengming was standing on the top of the tree, the situation was very different.

Looking down from above, a fruit that could be seen everywhere suddenly fell on the two of them, which really startled Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai, and their attention was immediately attracted.

As for Lee Zhengming, who was the one who started this, he pretended not to notice the two of them. He continued to stand on the tree crown as if nothing had happened, carrying out the task of keeping watch that Meng Tong had forced on him.

Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai were both Masters of the early stage of the foundation building realm. Under normal circumstances, they might not have been able to discover Meng Tong and his gang. But with li Zhengming's hint, it only took them a moment to discover Meng Tong and his gang.

"What a small world. Newbie Meng, what a coincidence that you're taming a spiritual pet. Do you want me to help you?" Qiao hongcai sneered, rolled up his sleeves, and rushed over.

Facing Meng Tong was a group of ten or so people, but he charged forward without any hesitation, not taking his opponents seriously at all.

Xiao ran followed closely behind, but he gave Lee Zhengming a meaningful look. Qiao hongcai might not be able to tell who had made the fruit, but Xiao ran could tell.

What was Lee Zhengming's intention to lure them over with the fruit?

Xiao ran couldn't help but feel puzzled. If Murong Zhen was present, he could have thought of this as luring the snake into the pot. After all, with the combined strength of Murong Zhen and Meng Tong, it was more than enough to deal with him and Qiao Hong. But now, Murong Zhen was nowhere to be seen. Wouldn't he be ruining Meng Tong's plan by luring them here?

While Xiao ran was hesitating, Qiao Hong Cai had already rushed in front of Meng Tong and his group. Meng Tong immediately panicked and hurriedly shouted to the GreenCloud Pavilion's new disciples,"Quickly stop him! I'll reward him handsomely after this!"

It was a crucial time for him to subdue the Black-backed rod-like ape, and he was about to succeed. If he was interrupted by Qiao hongcai, then all his efforts would be in vain, and even the spirit pet talisman he had used would be in vain.

It was just that Qiao hongcai's strength had already been obvious during the newcomer's challenge-even Meng Tong, an early Foundation Stage master, was beaten half to death by him. These GreenCloud Pavilion newcomers were only sky Class full Masters, and they didn't dare to fight to the death with someone as reckless as Qiao hongcai.

Therefore, even though Meng Tong had used the huge reward to boost their morale, none of the new disciples of the GreenCloud Pavilion was willing to give their all. It was obviously not worth it to pay the price of heavy injuries or even their lives for such a so-called huge reward. (To be continued.)
