Cold Priest VS Ancient Ferocious Beast

The sudden movement on the banks of the Duling River caught Su Qingchen and Mo Zhu off guard.

In order to steady himself as the ground shook violently, Su Qingchen leaned against Mo Zhu's back, tightly grasping his clothes around his waist with both hands.

While Mo Zhu was keeping a close eye on the movements in the Monster Forest, he reached back and supported Su Qingchen.

Before the two of them could figure out what was going on, everything returned to normal in an instant.

Su Qingchen let go of Mo Zhu and walked to Mo Zhu's side.

"Can you feel what kind of beast it is?" Su Qingchen asked curiously.

"Fei."

"A cow-shaped snake with a tail and one eye?" Su Qingchen recalled what he had read in the book.

"Yes."

"How do you sense it?"

"Well... every monster has its own scent, but scent is not only a sense of smell, it's also a sense of oppression."

Mo Zhu thought for a moment before continuing, "You can rely on the sense of pressure to first know what level the other monster is, and then you can use the smell to know what species it is."

"So you feel... pressured during these demon-slaying battles?"

"...Uh, in these few times, if you talk about a sense of oppression, it's those demons and monsters who feel it, while I just smell the scent."

"Okay, I know you're powerful. Did you feel any pressure just now?"

"Have."

"So that Fei is more powerful than you?"

"At least not weaker than a slave."

"do you know?"

Mo Zhu thought about it seriously and said, "I don't know him."

"I've never read in books what would happen if an ancient ferocious beast reached adulthood in the Monster Forest?"

"The ancient beasts themselves have extremely strong destructive power. If their evil thoughts get out of control, they will not only kill other monsters that stray into their territory, but will also gradually expand their killing range. If all the monsters in the Monster Forest are wiped out, it may spread to areas beyond the Monster Forest."

"If there were no spiritual energy from the immortal realm, wouldn't the demon beasts be unable to cross the Duling River?"

"Where Fei appears, the river dries up."

"..."

"Because of the Supreme God's punishment on the Monster Forest, if the ancient beasts had not been tamed by the immortal world, they would not have lived to adulthood in the Monster Forest. But now..."

"This is not written in our book, how do you know?"

"...It seems that when we woke up from the evil flower, we knew that we had no school and no master."

"Do you have any friends in the Monster Forest?"

“…When I’m in a good mood, I have it, but when I’m in a bad mood, I don’t have it.”

"You bully others when you're in a bad mood, don't you?"

"Ah."

Mo Zhu didn't hide anything.

Su Qingchen rolled his eyes at him.

"We're going to check it out now. You'll get beaten again when we come back."

"It doesn't matter."

"It doesn't matter what, it's also important to take care of yourself, remember?"

"Yes."

Su Qingchen could tell that this was Mo Zhu's answer out of obedience.

"You will be like this, and you won't listen to what I say. I know you are not afraid of those punishments, but that doesn't mean you can't cherish yourself. If you don't cherish yourself, I will be distressed, understand?"

Mo Zhu looked at Su Qingchen seriously, as if he was trying to understand Su Qingchen's words carefully.

"Yes." Mo Zhu answered again.

Su Qingchen nodded.

"There shouldn't be many conscious people in the temple now. Let's go back and have the fairy pigeon deliver a message to the Martial Priest."

Su Qingchen felt that there was no better way than this at the moment, so he decided to return to Su Temple first.

After hearing this, Mo Zhu consciously transformed into a Qiongqi beast, carried Su Qingchen on his back and flew back.

The temple meeting on the second day did not begin until noon.

The military priest submitted the military report he had written overnight to the God, in which Mo Zhu's contribution was perfectly concealed.

"I have one more thing to ask." said the martial priest.

"What's the matter?" The God held his forehead, as if he had not yet recovered from last night's hangover.

"Last night, an unexplained tremor occurred along the Duling River. I have not yet determined the cause."

"Oh?" The God suddenly became serious.

"The fish-snake beast in my palace transformed into a cub and hid in the demon-control bag last night, and it hasn't come out yet."

"So is my Qingqiu Fox."

"My dragon tiger beast didn't hide, but he was very anxious. I asked him why, and he said he felt an unknown sense of oppression."

"Could something have happened in the Monster Forest?"

The priests were discussing this matter.

"Priest Qingchen, where is the Qiongqi in your temple?" a priest asked.

"He, he also hid in the demon-controlling bag last night." Su Qingchen did not lie.

"I pulled him out, and he also said he felt a sense of oppression."

"Even Qiongqi is hiding, it must be a big deal."

"Yeah, forget about the fish-snake beast, but that's Qiongqi."

As soon as Su Qingchen finished speaking, the atmosphere in the temple became even more tense.

"Lord God, I will send the immortal army to the Duling River to investigate. If we need to cross the river, we will need your approval."

"Okay. We must get to the bottom of this matter."

"Yes."
