Farmer Girl Reborn: I Play the Pig and Eat the Tiger in the World of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 38: The Spiritual Pet's Counterattack Reveals Its Edge

The black-robed man scrambled to his feet, blood smearing at the corner of his mouth. He clutched his chest, where waves of pain shot through him, as if crushed by a huge rock. He stared in disbelief at the sable cub sleeping in Nong Jin's arms, his eyes gleaming with a mixture of greed and fear. This little creature actually concealed such terrifying power!

The surrounding black-clad men were also silent, their previous arrogance long gone. They looked at each other, and saw deep fear in each other's eyes.

Yan Yue gently stroked the sable cub's soft fur, feeling both worried and relieved. She worried about whether the sable cub would suffer any sequelae after such an outburst; she was relieved that the strength it displayed at that critical moment had undoubtedly bought them a precious moment of respite.

"They won't give up." Nong Jin's voice was low and firm, and his eyes scanned the surroundings vigilantly, as if searching for hidden dangers.

Yan Yue nodded. She understood that the battle had only just begun. The greed in the black-robed man's eyes, and the viciousness he quickly concealed, foreshadowed the increasingly dangerous situation they were about to face.

The forest was momentarily silent, the only sound being the rustling of leaves and the muffled breathing of the crowd. A tense atmosphere hung in the air, like the calm before a storm.

Time passed minute by minute, and the sable cub slowly woke up in Nong Jin's warm embrace. It opened its sleepy eyes, stretched out its pink little tongue to lick Nong Jin's fingers, and let out a slight whimper.

Seeing this, Yan Yue felt a little relieved. It seemed that the sable cub had not suffered too much harm.

However, at this moment, the sable cub suddenly jumped out of Nong Jin's arms. Its small body trembled slightly, and its eyes were fixed on the man in black not far away, with anger flashing in its eyes.

It seemed to feel threatened and remembered the enemy that had attacked it before.

Before Yan Yue and Nong Jin could react, the sable cub turned into a purple lightning and rushed towards one of the men in black.

Its tiny body flashed through the air at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, it was in front of the man in black, its sharp claws fiercely scratching at his face.

"Ah!" The man in black screamed as the sable cub pushed him back several steps. He covered his face, blood seeping from between his fingers.

Seeing this, the other men in black drew their weapons and prepared to attack the sable cubs.

Seeing this, the black-robed man curled his lips into a sinister smile. "It seems this little thing holds a grudge. In that case, let's deal with it first!"

As soon as he finished speaking, spells shot out towards the sable cub. Various lights intertwined together, like brilliant fireworks, but full of deadly danger.

The sable cub was agile and kept dodging in the air, but facing such intensive attacks, it gradually became a little tired.

"Protect it!" Nong Jin shouted softly, and his figure flashed, standing in front of the sable cub.

Yan Yue followed closely behind, taking out his own magic weapon and preparing to fight... "Be careful," Nong Jin suddenly pulled Yan Yue behind him and looked in a certain direction with sharp eyes.

At the command of the black-robed man, the men in black no longer hesitated, each targeting the tiny sable cub. Colorful spells poured down like a torrential rain, interweaving into a dazzling yet deadly web that enveloped the sable cub.

The sable cub was agile, tumbling and tumbling through the air, dodging the barrage of attacks. Its tiny body weaved through the gaps in the spells, like a flash of purple lightning, streaking through the night sky. However, facing such a dense attack, it gradually began to feel the strain, narrowly avoiding being hit by the spells several times.

"Be careful!" Nong Jin pulled Yan Yue behind him, shielding her tightly with his broad back. Yan Yue pressed tightly against Nong Jin's back, feeling the warmth and strength coming from him. She smelled Nong Jin's unique scent, a mixture of sunshine and grassy fragrance that made her feel at ease.

However, while Yan Yue felt relieved, her heart was also gripped tightly as she looked anxiously at the sable cub struggling under the spell. She knew that although the sable cub had displayed amazing strength, it was still just a cub after all. How long could it hold out against such a powerful attack?

Nong Jin's eyes were sharp as a knife, fixed on the flying sable pups and the black-clad men who were constantly casting spells. With one hand, he protected Yan Yue behind him, while with the other, he secretly accumulated strength, ready to strike at any time.

The sable cub dodged left and right in the air, desperately trying to avoid the dense onslaught. Its tiny body left a trail of shadows in the air, moving at speeds so fast that they were almost impossible to detect with the naked eye. However, two fists were no match for four hands, and it ultimately failed to completely dodge all the attacks.

A fiery red spell grazed the sable cub's side. It whimpered in pain, staggered in the air, and nearly fell.

Yan Yue's heart sank suddenly, and she cried out in worry, "Sable!"

Nong Jin also sensed Yan Yue's worry. He tightened his arms, hugged her tighter, and whispered, "Don't worry, it will be fine."

As soon as the words fell, the sable cub stabilized itself in mid-air. It shook its head, seeming a little dizzy, but its eyes became brighter, as if burning with fire.

It opened its small mouth and spit out an ice-blue light. This light was like a sharp sword, piercing the night sky and directly hitting the magic weapon of a man in black.

"Crack!" With a crisp sound, the magic weapon was instantly frozen into an ice cube, and then shattered into countless ice chips, scattered all over the ground.

The man in black saw this and his expression changed drastically. He exclaimed, "What kind of magic is this?"

The other men in black also showed expressions of shock. They obviously did not expect that this little sable cub had such powerful abilities.

Seeing this, the black-robed man's face darkened and he snorted coldly, "It seems we underestimated the strength of this little thing." He winked at a burly man in black behind him and said, "Go, take care of it!"

The man in black nodded, holding a long sword blazing with flames, and walked out of the crowd. He exuded a powerful aura, clearly a powerful cultivator. He walked towards Zishen, pointing the tip of his sword directly at Zishen, and said coldly, "Little thing, your performance ends here!"

The sable cub met his gaze fearlessly, its small body slightly arched in a defensive stance. It quickly used its claws to trace a spiritual trail on the ground... "Be careful!" Nong Jin suddenly warned.

The sable cub swiftly traced a trail of spiritual energy on the ground with its claws, emitting a faint purple glow. The next moment, vines erupted from the ground like awakened pythons, quickly wrapping around the Flame Sword Cultivator's feet. The vines were emerald green, their surfaces shimmering with tiny streams of light, firmly pinning the cultivator to the spot.

"What?!" The Flame Sword cultivator was startled and struggled to break free, but found the vines were extremely resilient. The more he struggled, the tighter they wrapped around him. The flames on the Flame Sword flickered with his movements, as if they would go out at any moment.

The sable cub took this opportunity to open its mouth again, and an even more condensed stream of ice-blue light gushed out, striking the Flame Sword Immortal Cultivator's chest. The Flame Sword Immortal Cultivator grunted, and a thin layer of ice quickly condensed on his body, slowing his movements.

At this moment, the other men in black saw that the sable cub was entangled and thought they had an opportunity, so they attacked from the side. Colorful spells streaked across the night sky like meteors and headed straight for the sable cub.

"Sable!" Yan Yue exclaimed. Her eyes and hands were quick, and she quickly formed a hand seal. A golden light curtain instantly appeared in front of the sable cub, blocking all the attacks. With a loud "boom", the light curtain trembled violently, but in the end, it still firmly protected the sable cub.

Nong Jin looked at Yan Yue with appreciation and whispered, "Yuer, well done." Spiritual power surged throughout his body, ready to provide support at any time.

The enemy began to panic when they saw Yan Yue and the sable cub working so well together. The black-robed man's face darkened, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

"Useless! A bunch of useless!" he roared. "You can't even handle a little beast!"

The men in black looked at each other, not daring to speak.

"Come on! Kill them at any cost!" The black-robed man gave the order again, his tone full of murderous intent.

The men in black mustered their courage again and prepared to launch a new round of attack. However, at this moment, they suddenly stopped and looked behind the man in black robe.

The black-robed man seemed to have noticed something as well. He slowly turned around, his pupils suddenly constricting, a look of disbelief on his face. His lips trembled as he uttered a few words: "...This...How is it possible..."
