91: Chapter 91 Golden Tyrant Tiger

First Emperor.

The moment those two words entered his ears, Qin Ding's mind buzzed, as if some long-dormant string had been fiercely plucked.

It was an indescribable, eerie sensation, like an invisible giant hammer smashing his once-ordered thoughts into pieces, only to forcefully fuse those fragments together the next second into a shape that made his heart tremble.

"Awoo?"

[Boss, that smell on your arm... is it a bit stinky? This arm isn't rotting and stinking, is it?]

Qin Ding: ?

"You really can't expect ivory from a dog's mouth. What nonsense are you spouting?"

Da Hei's words were like a cold needle, fiercely piercing into Qin Ding's dazed state of mind.

What does it mean that the wound is rotting? Flesh only rots when someone is about to die, right? This damn dog is usually quite sharp-tongued when teasing Mu Xue's little white dog, so why is its brain so dense when it comes to serious matters?

He subconsciously touched his shoulder. If he remembered correctly, this was the wound left by a Claw-Tooth Wolf before falling into the Spirit Beast realm.

The situation was urgent back then, he used... Spirit Beast medicine?

Qin Ding instantly realized.

"It is time to change the medicine. After soaking in the swamp for a whole day, even if the wound is fine, it's normal for it to smell from being covered up."

"Are you okay?" A soft, concerned whisper came from beside him.

Qin Ding frowned, then smoothed his brow, his tone certain. "It is impossible for there to be any issues."

How could there be any issues? Only a day had passed, and he had applied a more potent Spirit Beast medicine back then. Even now, there was no discomfort at the wound site.

However, someone else didn't think so.

Cui Yan froze in place, her face full of disbelief.

What does "impossible for there to be any issues" mean? Shouldn't a normal person say "it should be fine" or "I don't know"? And that matter-of-fact attitude of his... did this guy put all his stat points into looks and combat power?!

"Pah! You'll be like this your whole life!" Feeling her good intentions were ignored, Cui Yan huffed, turned around, and walked away, striding towards Chairman Cui Geng.

Chairman Cui Geng, who had been stealing glances, hurriedly withdrew his gaze upon seeing this, a flash of surprise in his eyes as he quickly calculated in his heart.

"High school senior, Rank 15 Sha Jin Wolf, dares to kill when releasing in the lower levels, lacking neither courage nor strength, and it's truly rare that he can make my girl lower her head. The only shortcoming now seems to be his family background."

"An orphan..."

Thinking of this, Chairman Cui Geng glanced at his daughter, who was still sulking.

Just as he was pondering the feasibility of this, he suddenly remembered the agreement his daughter mentioned when they first came out of the Spirit Beast realm. He needed to ask clearly.

While staying wary of Commander Xiang Ding, Chairman Cui Geng leaned closer to his daughter and asked in a low voice.

"What is the agreement between you and that kid? The Spirit Item you're giving?"

"Mm, a Commander Rank Dragon Blood Grass."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chairman Cui Geng felt the surrounding air seem to stagnate for a moment.

That illusion came and went quickly, but he was certain that the Cloud Mist Jiao, which was on guard in mid-air, had just glanced over here.

Chairman Cui Geng, his scalp tingling slightly, coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment. "This thing requires sourcing, a Commander Rank Dragon Blood Grass..."

This thing is specifically for Spirit Beasts with dragon blood. What does this young man need it for?

Almost subconsciously, Chairman Cui Geng's gaze turned to Qin Ding's Sha Jin Wolf, and a bold thought surged into his mind.

Does this Sha Jin Wolf have dragon blood in its body? But if it's such a rare Spirit Beast, how could it fall into the hands of an unsupported orphan? Could this kid have some unknown background?

Chairman Cui Geng noted this down without changing his expression.

As for the Spirit Item, since it was his daughter's agreement, he, as a father, would of course support it. He also wanted to see just how far this Qin Ding could go. Could it be a grassroots counterattack?

On the other side, Qin Ding had already torn off the bandages wrapped around his arm.

The scene that met his eyes made his gaze narrow.

The wound originally torn by the Claw-Tooth Wolf had now completely healed. The dark red scab was soaked through by the swamp's sewage and stuck to the gauze. After peeling it off, new flesh and skin were revealed.

"I seem to have... realized something."

Staring at the healed scar, Qin Ding's eyes grew brighter and brighter. This experience undoubtedly gave him an extremely bold idea.

In the future, if he suffered flesh wounds again, he could completely and confidently use Spirit Beast medicine. It was effective, and he could use one medicine for two purposes; why not?

"Woo?"

[Boss, how come your wound is healed? Why do I still feel a bit of pain on my back?]

Da Hei, who had leaned over, stared at Qin Ding's arm, its dog eyes full of disbelief.

It and the boss were injured at the same time and used the same medicine. How come the boss is healed, but it hasn't fully recovered yet?

"Nonsense, what's the strength of your Physical Body and what's the strength of mine?"

Qin Ding retorted without even thinking, then smiled and patted Da Hei's thick neck meat. "Alright, I'll change your medicine now."

Just at this moment, the Cloud Mist Jiao in mid-air made a large movement for the first time. Its massive body twisted in the air, and its Jiao head suddenly turned towards the back of the forest.

"Roar—Woo—!"

A tiger roar, enough to shatter metal and crack rocks, erupted in the forest without warning. Those Spirit Beasts that were originally crowded together and staring intently at the Spirit Beast realm rift instantly turned their heads in unison, looking in the direction from which the beast roar came.

Chairman Cui Geng frowned. "A tiger-type Spirit Beast King? The one from the wild outside Chang City? What is it doing coming over at this critical juncture?"

Qin Ding also felt vigilant. Unable to care about applying medicine to the Earth Dog, he immediately stood up and looked at the Cloud Mist Jiao in the sky, as well as the Huangshan Earth Lion and the Wild Earth Savage Bear not far away.

Is the other party bold, or do they also want to guard this Spirit Beast realm like these gathered Spirit Beasts? But why would this kind of cooperation be spawned? After all, the Spirit Beast realm king can't come out, so the threat level of the Spirit Beast realm isn't high.

One question led to another. At this moment, Qin Ding couldn't figure it out at all.

He saw a ferocious tiger, its entire body appearing in gold and black, over fifteen meters in length, pacing out of the forest with steady steps. Wherever it passed, bowl-thick trees were easily snapped by its mighty body.

"Yo, is it the Tiger King from outside the east gate of Chang City?" Chairman Cui Geng's mouth curled into a playful smirk. "Is this going to be a Dragon-Tiger Fight?"

His words were both a joke and a warning.

He was a human Beast Tamer, and his stance was naturally on the human side.

The Cloud Mist Jiao was the Beast of the Chang City Lord and belonged to the human faction, plus the Huangshan Earth Lion and the Wild Earth Savage Bear.

This was not just a joke, but naked deterrence.
