Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: Escaping the Tiger's Den, only to enter the Dragon's Mouth?

"Then let's see!"

Hearing the Sky-Wind Eagle's provocation, Su Qian didn't indulge him, saying with overbearing dominance. He knew that magical beasts adhered to the law of the jungle, and if you showed even a slight weakness, they might just turn on you one day.

To ensure Jia Nan Academy's dominant position in this forest, Su Qian coldly stared at the Sky-Wind Eagle. A majestic aura, like a giant dragon awakening, instantly enveloped the various Magical Beast Kings.

Feeling Su Qian's aura, several sixth-tier magical beasts immediately changed their expressions drastically.

Because Mang Tianchi had already swept through it once, there were actually no seventh-tier magical beasts in the Magical Beast Forest. Thus, this was the first time many sixth-tier magical beasts had faced a Dou Zong expert.

That terrifying aura immediately made several magical beasts' faces change.

"Su Qian, this is between you and the Sky-Wind Eagle. We won't get involved. With you several here, I doubt that treasure will have anything to do with me. My seventh child in the cave is about to be born, so I'll take my leave first."

The first to give in was a fifty-meter-long great snake. The great snake had two wings on its back and a single horn on its head, from which electric sparks crackled. This was a Two-Winged Lightning Snake, a peak fifth-tier magical beast.

Because it contained a trace of dragon bloodline, at its peak fifth-tier, it usually dared to contend even with some sixth-tier magical beasts. But at this moment, it had none of its usual arrogance.

After speaking quickly, it flapped its wings, causing lightning to flash, and in a blink of an eye, it left behind a trail of exhaust, with no trace of the snake.

'This old Su!'

Looking at the decisive Two-Winged Lightning Snake, many magical beasts cursed inwardly, 'Why are you running so fast? With so many of us helping, are we still afraid of one Dou Zong?'

Although everyone secretly resented the Two-Winged Lightning Snake, many magical beasts chose to follow their hearts.

"Right! Right! Right! My father was injured by humans a few days ago and is on his last breath. I need to rush back to see him one last time!"

"What—Uncle is dying? He was my father's sworn brother! Before my father left, he told me to treat Uncle well, but I didn't expect..."

"Uncle, I'm coming—"

In a flash, the sky cleared. All the fifth-tier magical beasts retreated, and a few sixth-tier magical beasts also quietly left, leaving only four sixth-tier magical beasts, including the Crimson-Gold Tiger King and the Sky-Wind Eagle.

The Sky-Wind Eagle's face was grim. He hadn't expected these guys to be so cowardly. And, you, a wolf and a leopard, where did your fathers get sworn brothers from? Sworn brothers who fought to the death?

Or perhaps, these guys were planning to be like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind?

Su Qian remained expressionless and did not stop the magical beasts from leaving. He wasn't a Dou Zun. As a three-star Dou Zong facing so many magical beasts, he was also stretched thin. Being able to persuade so many magical beasts to retreat at this time was already a testament to Jia Nan Academy's great prestige.

Moreover, these magical beasts were not easy to deal with; they all had their own conflicts and were not united.

"Su Qian, do you really intend to stop us?" The Crimson-Gold Tiger King spoke at this moment. Among those present, he was the most anxious, because he was a peak sixth-tier, and he felt that there was an opportunity for his breakthrough there.

Blocking someone's path to cultivation was like killing their parents. The Crimson-Gold Tiger King was already on the verge of losing his patience!

Su Qian did not answer. He merely flicked his sleeve, and a powerful surge of Dou Qi shot out from it, directly towards the four sixth-tier magical beasts!

They wanted to obtain an opportunity to break through to the seventh-tier, and Su Qian's goal was to do his best to stop them. A seventh-tier magical beast nearby would be too dangerous for Jia Nan Academy.

"Roar—"

"You're courting death—Let's all attack and kill him, otherwise none of us will get the opportunity."

Seeing Su Qian make his move, the Crimson-Gold Tiger King roared in fury. Terrifying flames surged with the wind, transforming into a sea of fire that rushed towards Su Qian.

"Roar—Su Qian, today will be your death day!" Following the Crimson-Gold Tiger King's attack, the remaining three sixth-tier Magical Beast Kings also had no more qualms. They all unleashed their methods, recklessly throwing skills at Su Qian.

"Hmph—"

Su Qian snorted at the sight, his palms slightly rotating. Majestic Dou Qi erupted from his palms, causing the space itself to tremble slightly.

"Cloud-Turning Hand!"

"Bang—"

A deep explosion sounded, and the spreading energy ripple pushed both sides back several steps.

After unleashing one strike, Su Qian's figure did not pause in the slightest, directly transforming into a bolt of lightning and shooting towards the Crimson-Gold Tiger King.

"Roar—"

After Jiang Yun was rescued, a slightly disheveled Su Qian arrived at the scene.

"Hmm?" Just then, Su Qian saw the deceased 'Second Senior Brother.' After careful observation, he concluded, "It's a third-tier magical beast, a Black Wind Pig. Killed in one blow, no traces of Dou Skills. The attacker is at least a Dou Ling, or even a Dou King."

After inspecting, Su Qian frowned and looked into the distance, asking in confusion, "Spatial power?"

Su Qian was truly surprised at this moment. One must know that involving spatial power was something at least a Dou Zong could achieve. Could there be a Dou Zong nearby?

Thinking of this, Su Qian couldn't help but feel his hair stand on end. Being able to evade his detection at least meant that the opponent's strength was not inferior to his own.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Qian still decided to follow the traces. As the Grand Elder of Jia Nan Academy, Su Qian needed to confirm the attitude of an unknown Dou Zong towards Jia Nan Academy.

Having decided!

At night, in a secluded mountain cave, a bonfire crackled. The little girl who rescued Jiang Yun was munching on an unknown fruit, her eyes fixed on Jiang Yun without blinking.

From the constant drool falling from her mouth, it was clear that it wasn't caused by the fruit in her hand.

"So fragrant!" The little girl ate another fruit from her hand, her face a little flushed. She slurped some drool, "Just once, just one lick."

The fruit did not suppress Jiang Yun's 'temptation'; instead, it intensified it. The little girl could no longer hold back, lowering her head and slowly moving towards Jiang Yun.

Just as she was about to stick out her small, fragrant tongue, Jiang Yun, who had his eyes tightly closed, suddenly opened them, looking at the 'huge' dragon's mouth in front of him with a dark expression.

"Uh, you're awake?" Jiang Yun's sudden awakening startled the little girl. She quickly retreated a few steps, waving her small hands, and explained, "I was just checking if you were injured, I absolutely had no other thoughts!"

Jiang Yun took a deep breath. Now on this unfamiliar continent, the opponent's strength was clearly above his own, so it was better not to provoke her.

Seeing Jiang Yun's expression soften and that he wasn't arguing with her, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. This was her hope for advancement, her future meal ticket, so she couldn't offend him.

"Hey, I saved you twice today! But... you're so weak, you can't even defeat a third-tier Black Wind Pig. How did you end up in this forest alone?"

"It's a good thing you met me, otherwise you wouldn't have survived!
