Pretending To Be A Boss -
Chapter 855 - 40: An Encounter with the Fox Tribe_2
Elk Bear, Fiery Golden Bird, and Rolling Sand Beasts stopped their attack when they sensed the presence of Tang Xian and the others.
But Tang Xian did not act, and soon, these beasts resumed their siege.
The dense forest had turned into a sea of fire.
The situation facing the six-tailed fox and the three-tailed fox was getting increasingly dire.
Unable to bear the sight of the upcoming horrific casualties, Tang Xiaojiu said:
"Uncle Feiji, let's go down and save them."
[Who should I listen to, you two?]
"You have to listen to both of us," Tang Xian said irritably.
Some things may just be fate, Tang Xiaojiu is destined to resolve these issues with the foxes. Although this encounter was somewhat abrupt, with limited time, it would be good to resolve the problem here and now.
Even though the little girl had already made her choice to stay with Brother Tang Xian.
Tang Xian said:
"They don't like you, they have neglected you since you were little. If not for your Qing, they might have killed you. I allow you to save them, but you must promise your brother one thing."
"What is it?"
"You must save them in your capacity as the queen of the foxes, and they must submit to you. If they don't agree, then don't save them. The world is vast, and life is short. There are so many people who love you in Baichuan City; your future will not be dimmed by the absence of these unloving foxes."
Tang Xiaojiu was somewhat stunned, not fully understanding what was said to her.
But after a few seconds, she nodded vigorously.
Tang Xian said:
"Tang Feiji, land."
[Hmm, a bunch of nonsense.]
Tang Feiji dove straight down, spitting out a stream of water elements to extinguish a small part of the fire in the forest, proving that he could indeed spray water.
Upon arriving at the battlefield, Tang Xian knew that although the three-tailed fox and the six-tailed fox were not boss-level creatures, they could understand his words.
Including the Elk Bears and Rolling Sand Beasts, the Fiery Golden Birds circling in the sky were frightened away in an instant by the sight of the Cang Dragon's dive.
Tang Xian said:
"I've heard your cries for help. But you've asked the wrong person, I will not save you. I have repaid hatred with kindness once already. I only save my friends."
The elders of the foxes looked at Tang Xian, guessing his intention.
Their expressions were complex.
Especially at this moment, Tang Xiaojiu revealed her own unique beast form.
Her delicate body became somewhat taller and slimmer, somewhat resembling the human form of Qing JiuYu, only less seductively enchanting.
To be exact, she transformed from a child into a young girl.
And behind her, the nine swaying tails signified the highest bloodline of the fox clan in her body. From a distance, her appearance matched well with that of humans. However, this image was too revolutionary for the foxes.
"Once you were the subjects of Qing JiuYu, you were friends of Tang Xian. But you exiled Qing JiuYu, thus you are my enemies. What right do you have to ask me for help?"
The foxes wailed in sorrow. On the other hand, the Elk Bears started thumping their chests excitedly, like gorillas.
They wanted to devour the foxes, initially thinking that Tang Xian came to intervene. But from his words, it seemed Tang Xian had no intention of helping.
Compared to that, the Rolling Sand Beasts were smarter, keeping even farther away from the foxes. They weren't as simple-minded as the bear tribe; they detected the subtext in Tang Xian's words.
Sure enough, when a few Elk Bears roared out, Tang Xian cast a fierce glance at them, and those bears were instantly scared silent.
Now, Tang Xian had an aura of a beast god, making him an absolute danger that these creatures dared not provoke.
Tang Xian continued:
"Under Qing JiuYu's leadership, you could contend with the Nvwa Snake Clan. But now, without a leader, you are nothing but a pack of homeless dogs. If I'm not mistaken, from the end of winter to the arrival of spring, your migration has been a constant process of being besieged."
Several of the older six-tailed foxes bowed their heads; indeed, as Tang Xian had said, they had been bullied by many creatures along the way.
Tang Xian said:
"Now, you have a choice. Either accept my sister, the girl once regarded as a heretic of the fox clan, as your ruler. From then on, the fox clan will be friends of humans. Or today, you die here."
Regardless of the outcome, Tang Xian would save the group of foxes, but the difference was whether he would save them just this once, or every time the foxes were in trouble in the future, he would come to their aid.
Just like with Qiao Shanshan, if she never accepted his terms, he would still save her, but their friendship would likely end there.
Tang Xiaojiu wanted to say something, but in the end, she remained silent.
It was only when a few clueless Elk Bears approached that she repelled them with an imposing stance, using foxfire.
The entire fox clan was suddenly surrounded by a punch of deep red foxfire, as if marking a domain.
The Fiery Golden Birds in the sky began to scatter. The Rolling Sand Beasts also started to flee.
The majesty of the fox clan queen was powerful after all, even if she were just a child. A beast clan with a leader and one without can never have the same combat power.
Only the Elk Bears, these stupid and clumsy louts, still thought about eating fox meat.
Tang Xian didn't mind, it had been a long time since he had steamed bear paws.
Responses in desperate situations are seldom genuine.
At this moment, the smartest foxes realized that even though Tang Xian did not rescue them directly, the beast hordes gradually dispersed. If it was just dealing with the clumsy Elk Bears, they could completely retreat.
