Stunning Dragon Wife

Chapter 169: Chapter 168

Meanwhile, in the mountains, birds and animals scattered in a frenzy.

Zhang Xiaoshan was shocked.

It was rare to see tigers, especially since wild tigers had never been sighted in their Northwestern region outside of zoos.

Once, Old Shan had heard the elderly in the village tell of a mythical tiger of immense size that resided in the mountain behind them, but no one in the village had ever seen it.

"Could the tales of the Divine Tiger and Dragon Girl both be true?"

Zhang Xiaoshan was immediately enthusiastic; with a leap, he jumped more than ten meters high, at least the height of a three-story building, a testament to the power of Qi Condensation with the support of True Qi, bestowing many benefits.

Then he performed the Swimming Dragon Steps, treading on protruding branches like a peerless master from the television dramas, leaping swiftly among the cliff faces, more nimble than monkeys.

In just two or three minutes, Little Shan reached the top of the cliff.

"This Swimming Dragon Steps is really mysterious, once carried out using True Qi, my body becomes light, almost capable of low altitude flight."

At this time, tiger roars continued to be heard; Little Shan urgently followed the sound.

Due to the abundance of trees in the mountains, he ran rapidly through the air above the treetops, traversing the forest as if on flat ground.

"What direction is this?"

After a few more minutes, Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the scene before him, stunned for a moment.

Because he had come to the same place where he found the Red Blood Ganoderma.

"Could it be the Red Training Snake King that bastard is up to something?"

Thinking of the Red Training Snake King made Little Shan’s teeth itch with anger; that creature had sneak attacked him, and it was only because he had Susu’s protection that he didn’t die at the bottom of the cliff, his body devoured by wild beasts, leaving no bones behind.

He was determined to avenge this enmity.

Soon, Little Shan arrived less than three hundred meters away from where the Red Blood Ganoderma grew.

At this point, he stopped, silently descended from the treetops, and concealed his figure in the forest, cautiously inching closer.

The ground was littered with a lot of black fur and traces of something that had dragged its body. Some of the larger trees were knocked askew, and the smaller ones were completely uprooted, clear signs of a fierce battle that had taken place.

"Black fur? Is this wolf fur?"

Little Shan picked up a tuft of the fur to examine it, his expression puzzled; he indeed found it difficult to identify which animal the fur belonged to.

"Roar..."

At that moment, another loud roar echoed.

The sound could be described as thunderous, deafening.

Zhang Xiaoshan’s scalp tingled with the roar; wild animals for several kilometers around had long since fled, not a single one remained.

Zhang Xiaoshan, drawn by the commotion not far ahead, hurried closer.

Soon, a scene of a great battle unfolded before Zhang Xiaoshan’s eyes.

Next to the Red Blood Ganoderma at the cliff, a massive figure in flaming red coiled around a large tree, raising its head high and staring intently at the cliff, was the treacherous beast, the Red Training Snake King.

And in the stream on the cliff, there stood another colossal figure, as large as an off-road vehicle, shaped like a cat, with black fur all over, but with two eyes that were red, like two flames burning.

"Is that... a black tiger?"

"A black tiger?"

Zhang Xiaoshan was astonished.

He had heard of spotted tigers and white tigers, but never of a black one, and this one was easily three to four times the size of a normal adult tiger.

Clearly, it was a mutant.

"Could the stories the elders in the village told about the Divine Tiger be true?"

Zhang Xiaoshan watched with his heart pounding, utterly amazed.

The two giant beasts were now locked in a tense face-off, their attention on each other, oblivious to Little Shan hidden nearby.

"This might as well be a battle between dragon and tiger, let’s watch the excitement first."

Zhang Xiaoshan quietly crouched behind a large tree.

Though he had achieved Qi Condensation, the Red Training Snake King was enormous and tough, and Little Shan was not confident he could kill it outright; that creature was vengeful, a lesson Little Shan had learned well, and should it escape now, the trouble would be endless.

He decided to wait and see, hoping for the best if dragon and tiger should fight, and he could benefit from it.

At this moment, the two giant creatures went from standoff to attacking once more.
