Chapter 161: Chapter 161: The White Kitten

Xiao Zhan immediately became alert.

Seeing Xiao Zhan on guard, the White Tiger also quickly stopped in its tracks.

Both human and tiger stood still for a few seconds.

After Xiao Zhan confirmed that it wouldn’t attack him, he then proceeded towards the exit.

But after just a few steps, the White Tiger caught up again.

Xiao Zhan slightly frowned, thinking it wanted to eat something again, so he took out a Spirit Fruit and threw it far away on purpose.

He wanted to lure it away while he took the chance to leave the Secret Realm.

This time, the White Tiger seemed a bit clever and saw through Xiao Zhan’s intention. It glanced at Xiao Zhan, then at the distant Spirit Fruit, its eyes rolling around as if it were in a dilemma.

But in the end, food won over reason, and it dashed towards the Spirit Fruit.

Xiao Zhan seized the opportunity to sprint toward the exit.

But this time, he had only run a few steps further than before when, after eating the Spirit Fruit, the White Tiger caught up again, using its Instantaneous Movement skill to appear just a few meters behind Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan got a fright, thinking the White Tiger was about to launch a sneak attack, and subconsciously prepared to strike back.

However, as soon as he turned around, he saw it wearing a cheerful and happy expression, hopping along without any malice.

Xiao Zhan immediately forcefully stopped his attack.

Taking out another Spirit Fruit, he threw it even farther and said to the White Tiger, "Stop following me. I’m leaving now. Go stay wherever you find comfortable."

After throwing it, Xiao Zhan turned and ran.

But this time, the White Tiger seemed to have wised up, as if it understood the difference between a one-time full meal versus having enough for future meals.

Ignoring the Spirit Fruit, it just kept following Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan thought it had chosen the Spirit Fruit and ran a few steps, only to find that it was still following him without eating the fruit.

He immediately wore a helpless expression.

"What are you doing following me? You belong to the Secret Realm. If you follow me out, you’ll be slaughtered the moment you do."

Think about it, a Demon Beast showing up inside the academy, it would be strange if it wasn’t killed by the heads of the various sectors.

Although Xiao Zhan didn’t care about its life and death at first, when an animal shows you affection, Xiao Zhan couldn’t bring himself to be so heartless after all.

After all, there was no deep hatred between life and death.

This time the White Tiger seemed to understand Xiao Zhan’s words.

It immediately put on a pitiful expression.

It looked at the Spirit Fruit, then at the hand of Xiao Zhan, then back at the Secret Realm behind it, and instantly felt even more aggrieved.

It also let out a whimpering sound.

Watching its series of actions, Xiao Zhan seemed to understand that the creature had come to view him as its provider.

All the Spirit Fruits in the Secret Realm had been picked by him. The White Tiger ate Spirit Fruits, and with no source of food, it would starve to death inside.

To live, it must come out.

No wonder it wanted to follow him.

This was indeed slightly Xiao Zhan’s fault; his actions weren’t completely honorable.

But giving it the Spirit Fruit now was unrealistic. Stored in Dimension Space, the Spirit Fruits could be preserved indefinitely. But once taken out, they would likely spoil in just a few days.

Even giving them all to it wouldn’t be useful; they’d be gone before it finished eating them.

Xiao Zhan felt a burst of dilemma inside, unsure of how to deal with it.

Looking at the White Tiger’s dumbfounded appearance, it seemed that it wouldn’t attack him anymore.

But after all, a Demon Beast is still a Demon Beast; it can’t be controlled, so there’s always a risk of danger lurking.

Moreover, even if it doesn’t harm him, what about others?

With its capabilities, he wouldn’t be able to stop it when the time comes.

Taking it out would be really dangerous.

But if he didn’t, the White Tiger would still follow, and he couldn’t stop it; he’d have to bring it along by force.

Xiao Zhan was really troubled.

But the choice was an easy one, between taking it actively or passively, Xiao Zhan could only choose to actively bring it with him.

"You can follow me, but can you promise not to harm others?"

Hearing this, the White Tiger tilted its head, its eyes filled with confusion – it clearly did not understand.

But the look of grievance on its face was indeed reduced a lot; it seemed that it understood a tiny bit.

Xiao Zhan was at his wit’s end, as not understanding was really troublesome.

Left with no choice, he could only say, "With you looking like this, I can’t possibly take you outside; you’ll be killed."

Upon hearing this, the White Tiger’s eyes swiveled – it understood.

Suddenly, its body rapidly shrank, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a small white kitten.

Adorable and snowy white, its eyes large and bright, it made one really want to pet it.

"Meow~"

Even its voice had become that of a cat’s.

Xiao Zhan was stunned as he witnessed this scene; it was his first time seeing a Demon Beast able to alter its size like this.

Transformed into a kitten, its potential for danger had definitely reduced by a lot.

However, it was still uncontrollable.

If it could understand human speech, it would be slightly better, but the key point was it didn’t even understand human speech at all.

While he was hesitating, the White Tiger suddenly leapt up, its speed several times faster than before; so fast that even Xiao Zhan didn’t react in time before it had already appeared on Xiao Zhan’s shoulder.

The fur around its neck fluffy, yet Xiao Zhan’s spine felt a chill.

He instinctively grabbed it in his hand.

His eyes showed a look of shock!

The White Tiger that was grasped in Xiao Zhan’s hand displayed an innocent and clueless expression, staring at Xiao Zhan, confused yet harmless.

Xiao Zhan instantly let out a sigh of relief.

This creature’s speed was terrifying; he had absolutely no time to react. If it had decided to ambush him just now, he probably would have been done for.

However, looking at its reduced size, Xiao Zhan realized that its speed was related to its stature.

The smaller the size, the faster it moved.

But seeing it transformed into a kitten, Xiao Zhan still felt a bit uneasy inside.

After all, it was a Demon Beast; taking it to the human world posed a danger, it was fine in its current state, but what if its condition worsened?

If it went berserk, who could take responsibility?

While Xiao Zhan was hesitating, light flickered at the exit; it was urging Xiao Zhan to get out quickly.

Xiao Zhan sighed.

There was no choice; he had to take it outside.

It wasn’t that he wanted to bring it, but rather at this point, he simply couldn’t get rid of it.

He could only hope that once outside, it would listen to him.

Exiting from the exit point.

Jiang Wenfu had already been waiting at the exit for a long time and heaved a sigh of relief when the first thing to emerge wasn’t a Storage Bag.

He was afraid that Xiao Zhan had really plundered all the Spirit Fruits in the Secret Realm.

No Storage Bag.

That meant Xiao Zhan had left quite a lot for him.

But then, seeing that Xiao Zhan had nothing on him, hands empty.

He was somewhat surprised, "Didn’t take a single one?"

"Not a single one left."

Xiao Zhan thought to himself that you’re thinking too much; how could I possibly not take any?

"Not a single one left?"

Jiang Wenfu was surprised, but after examining Xiao Zhan up and down, he didn’t see any Spirit Fruits.

He wasn’t yet aware of Xiao Zhan’s Dimension Space ability.

Xiao Zhan merely smiled without a word.

Jiang Wenfu saw his smile and thought he was joking.

It’s good that he didn’t take any.

Then, he turned to look at the kitten on Xiao Zhan’s shoulder, "How come you brought a Demon Beast out with you?"
