863: Reunion, Beast Tide

This was a Vicious Beast similar to a pheasant that he had just killed, weighing about ten catties.

Don't be fooled by its small size; it was a bona fide Rank Six flying Vicious Beast.

Ji Wuchang took out a Small Cauldron, cut it into pieces, and stewed them inside; the aroma continuously wafted from the cauldron.

Not just him, even the black bear in the distance was pacing back and forth from the craving, drool dripping down continuously.

But it didn't dare come over; the other party was very fierce, and those fists hitting its body were simply too painful!

"It smells so good!"

Just then, a young girl's voice rang out. Upon hearing it, Ji Wuchang's entire body stiffened, and he slowly raised his head.

Directly above him, an old man and a young girl appeared in the sky!

The girl's eyes were fixed intently on the meat boiling in the cauldron below.

Her eyes were sparkling, and she even swallowed her saliva.

Ji Wuchang's heart skipped a beat, and he frowned slightly. How could it be such a coincidence?

But he didn't dare be negligent, so he hurriedly stood up and cupped his fists toward the old man, saying, "Greetings, Senior."

The old man was expressionless as he nodded slowly, then descended with the girl.

As soon as the girl landed, her eyes were glued to the Small Cauldron!

The closer she got, the richer the aroma of the meat became!

The enticing fragrance made the girl unable to resist sticking out her tongue to lick her red lips; she was just short of drooling.

"It smells so good! Can I have a piece?"

The girl looked at Ji Wuchang and asked timidly.

Ji Wuchang curled his lips. Could he say 'no'? A supreme realm expert was right beside him, and he didn't want to be slapped to death.

Helplessly, he nodded slowly.

As soon as she saw Ji Wuchang nod, the girl's eyes instantly lit up. With a grab of her hand, a large piece of meat flew out of the cauldron and was caught by her.

She didn't care if it was hot or not and took a direct bite, her mouth becoming covered in oil.

"Delicious, it's... delicious!"

The girl spoke indistinctly, saying "delicious" twice in a row, her face beaming with satisfaction.

In just a moment, she had finished gnawing through a piece of meat weighing about half a catty.

The girl even licked the bone clean, just like a little puppy.

She then tossed the bone aside and reached out again; another piece of meat flew out from the cauldron and was caught by her.

"Eat! It's very delicious. Why aren't you guys eating?"

The girl looked at Ji Wuchang and her grandfather with a puzzled expression, then opened her small mouth again and took another bite.

"Young friend, I apologize. It is this old man who has spoiled her. She's already this old, yet she still doesn't understand any rules!"

The old man gave Ji Wuchang an apologetic look and spoke with a smile.

Ji Wuchang smiled bitterly; it was also his first time meeting such a carefree girl. He hurriedly smiled and said, "Senior, please have some too."

The old man smiled faintly and nodded slowly. Without any visible movement from him, a piece of meat automatically flew out of the cauldron and came before him.

Ji Wuchang didn't stand on ceremony either, grabbing a wing and starting to gnaw on it!

No kidding—if he didn't eat some now, he had a premonition that this girl would eat everything.

Glancing at the black bear in the distance, Ji Wuchang waved his hand and threw a piece of meat directly in front of it.

The black bear's drool had already soaked the ground. Seeing the meat, it immediately opened its large mouth and bit into it.

The fragrant aroma made the black bear's eyes light up.

Ji Wuchang didn't know that it was precisely this unconscious act of his that seemed to awaken a special intelligence within the black bear.

In Tianfeng Mountain, there was now a black bear that actually learned to cook food like humans and even influenced several of its companions. Of course, that is a story for later.

At this moment, beside the Small Cauldron, the three of them shared the delicacies within, eating with great relish.

The old man didn't eat much; after tasting two or three pieces, he stopped.

The girl, however, was not at all reserved. She ate with such gusto that as piece after piece of meat entered her mouth, spiritual power surged within her body, and a moment later, she directly achieved a Breakthrough.

Ji Wuchang wasn't surprised; this was a Rank Six Vicious Beast, which contained a massive amount of blood energy.

With the girl eating so much, it was only natural for her to Breakthrough from the first level of the Dao Severing Realm to the second level.

His cultivation remained unchanged, but spiritual power was likewise surging within his body.

However, after this spiritual power poured into his Purple Mansion and flesh, it was entirely divided up and consumed.

Once the girl finished the last sip of soup, a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

Ji Wuchang felt quite helpless; with her hugging the cauldron and eating like that, any outsider would think he was the one mooching a meal.

Roars echoed from all around, one after another, causing Ji Wuchang to frown slightly. Tonight was a bit different.

Just then, in the distant sky, numerous Vicious Beasts flew in from afar, all of them flying types.

The leading Vicious Beasts actually possessed the pressure of Rank Seven Peak Vicious Beasts.

Behind them were many Rank Six Vicious Beasts, as well as Rank Five, Rank Four, Rank Three, and so on!

Cries issued from the mouths of many Vicious Beasts, sounds filled with the color of fear!

Seeing this scene, Ji Wuchang couldn't help but frown; he hadn't yet realized what was going on.

These Vicious Beasts were a dense black mass, all of the same species, numbering in the thousands. They flew directly over the heads of Ji Wuchang and the others without stopping for a moment.

While he was pondering, countless beast roars came from the distance, and the ground trembled slightly.

The black bear looked up toward the distance, a trace of fear appearing in its eyes. Then, without any hesitation, it bolted away.

Just a moment ago, it had been reluctant to leave its cave, but now it abandoned it without hesitation, giving Ji Wuchang a bad premonition.

"Young friend, please look after her for a moment. I will go see what has happened over there."

After the old man finished speaking, before Ji Wuchang could respond, his figure rapidly faded and vanished instantly.

At this moment, Ji Wuchang and the girl were both dumbfounded. They glanced at each other, seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

The beast roars grew more numerous, and the ground shook even more violently.

"Oh no, a Beast Tide!"

Ji Wuchang finally realized what was happening. He flew into mid-air and looked into the distance!

He activated his Thousand Illusions Spirit Pupils. Although it was night, he could still see clearly.

In the distance, countless Vicious Beasts were charging in their direction—all kinds of Vicious Beasts!

Wherever these Vicious Beasts passed, all obstacles were destroyed.

Ji Wuchang's expression changed drastically. He flew down, put away the Small Cauldron, and prepared to leave.

His gaze fell upon the girl, and he frowned, only then remembering there was another person.

"Hurry, it'll be too late if we don't leave now!"

Ji Wuchang spoke urgently. The girl was startled by his voice, her neck shrinking back as she spoke timidly, "My grandfather hasn't come back yet!"

Ji Wuchang felt very helpless and hurriedly said, "Senior's cultivation is high, there's no need to worry. We'll leave first; he'll find us!"

Hearing this, the girl hesitated for a moment before slowly nodding.

The two of them bolted toward the distance, with the roars of Vicious Beasts behind them!

Above their heads, flying Vicious Beasts were also fleeing, as if there were some great terror behind them.
