Gazing at the cloudless sky, Bai Jie fell into deep thought: So... it turns out my greatest support is heaven and earth, right? From now on, can I walk sideways? No, not just sideways, but vertically, diagonally, and even upside down? Who dares to stop me?!

After a moment of inner turmoil, Bai Jie shook his head and returned to normal: after all, he was still a good kid, and he shouldn't do such an arrogant thing.

Approaching the black bear spirit, Bai Jie poked the dark, unremarkable lump with his paw, but there was no reaction whatsoever.

"Is he dead?" he muttered under his breath. Bai Jie picked up the bear paw and solemnly took the pulse: Hmm... it's still beating, so he's not dead.

Nodding, Bai Jie tossed the bear paw aside and ignored it: as long as the beast that bullied him didn't die, he didn't care about anything else.

Just then, a shout came from afar: "Third Master! Third Master! Where are you? The fighting's over here!"

"It's over!" Bai Jie's eyes lit up and he quickly ran towards the direction from which the voice came. Soon, he saw Yue Tian and Huang Jiu, who were covered in dirt.

"What's wrong with you two?" As soon as he arrived next to the two beasts, Bai Jie was driven back by a stench. He covered his nose and stood three meters away from the wolf and the weasel before speaking.

"Well, that's a long story..." Yue Tian perked up immediately upon hearing the question and vividly recounted his battle experience.

After hearing Yue Tian's description, Bai Jie had only one thought: I originally thought I was just there to make a cameo appearance, but I didn't expect to play such a role.

"By the way, Third Master, where did you go before? I haven't seen you at all."

Huang Jiu's question interrupted Bai Jie's inner monologue. He glanced at the two injured beasts and said, "I didn't come here to fight. I hid as soon as you started fighting." His answer was very self-righteous, without any remorse for deserting the battle.

Yue Tian and Huang Jiu exchanged glances, thinking about Bai Jie's fighting strength and the brother-obsessed nature of their boss and second-in-command. They were suddenly a little relieved: it was a good thing the third-in-command didn't come, otherwise not only would he not be able to help much, but if he got injured, he would also get beaten up when he got back.

"Third Master, you did the right thing. You can't get hurt even if someone else gets hurt." Yue Tian said sincerely, holding Bai Jie's claws tightly. He still wanted to learn more skills from Bi Xie, and he couldn't let this matter upset his boss.

"Get away from me, hey!" Bai Jie suddenly pulled back his claws and retreated. The wolf smelled too strong, he couldn't stand it.

"Ahem, sorry, I forgot about that." Yue Tian awkwardly took two steps back. His nose had long been numb from the fumes and was currently in a state of malfunction.

"Just stay away from me. By the way, when are we leaving? It's almost lunchtime," Bai Jie asked, covering his nose with the paw that hadn't been scratched before.

"Uh, we can only leave after we've brought all the beasts with us," Yue Tian gestured.

Looking over, Bai Jie saw that the group from Caiyun Village and the group of monsters were busy cleaning up the battlefield. They helped up their companions on the ground, and if they found that they were not seriously injured, they would shake them awake and call them over to help. If they were seriously injured, they would be carried by beasts to rest and recuperate when they returned.

Seeing the beasts cleaning up the battlefield, Bai Jie remembered something and turned to say, "Um, there's a black bear spirit over there where I came from. Why don't we send those monsters to check on it, lest it die?"

"Huh?" x2

At the same time, Yue Tian and Huang Jiu stared blankly at Bai Jie, their expressions as if asking: Did you do this?

"Ahem, it wasn't me who did it." Bai Jie coughed twice: You might not believe it, but it was God who did it.

"If you weren't the one who did it, then who was, Third Master?" Huang Jiu asked curiously.

"Uh...you'll understand once you see it." Bai Jie didn't know how to explain it either, so he simply decided to take them to see it for themselves.

"Alright," Yue Tian agreed, eager to see what this black bear spirit was all about.

"Aren't we going to notify them?" Bai Jie glanced at the monsters.

"What's the rush? Let's watch it first." Yue Tian grabbed Huang Jiu and ran in the direction Bai Jie had come from. He originally wanted to take the Third Leader with him, but gave up considering the smell on his body.

"Hey, wait for me!" Bai Jie hurriedly followed: Didn't this guy just finish a fight? How come he still has so much energy?

Before long, the three beasts arrived at the place where Bai Jie had been hiding. When they saw the black bear spirit, who was emitting a burnt smell, Yue Tian and Huang Jiu were both stunned.

"Was it struck by lightning?" Yue Tian couldn't help but complain as he looked at the charred ground.

"Yes." Bai Jie nodded in confirmation.

"Uh... was it that lightning in the clear sky?!" Yue Tian's face was full of disbelief.

“Yes, the timing matches up.” Bai Jie nodded in agreement.

Yue Tian circled the black bear spirit twice, pondering as he did so. When he stopped, he looked directly at Bai Jie and asked, "Third Master, tell me the truth, do you know thunder magic?"

"Huh?" Bai Jie was dumbfounded: What kind of thought process does this wolf have?

"How could I possibly know that kind of thing?" Bai Jie denied, "If I really knew lightning magic, would I be so cowardly?"

"I don't believe you unless the Third Master explains to me where the Sunny Day Thunder came from." Yue Tian decisively started to act shamelessly. If Tianlu Bixie were here, he would never dare to play like this, but Bai Jie is different. He has a good temper, so this trick works very well.

"Uh... actually, this guy wanted to hit me, and then he got struck down. It must have been the work of Heaven."

Yue Tian stared at Bai Jie with an expression that said, "Are you kidding me?"

"Um...it's true..." Bai Jie's tone was weak; even he himself wouldn't believe what he was saying.

"Then let the third leader give me a performance." Yue Tian was still somewhat skeptical, but he decided to watch first.

"How am I supposed to perform for you? I can't just get the Heavenly Dao to take action over something like this," Bai Jie said, spreading his paws in a helpless manner.

“Uh…” Yue Tian felt that Bai Jie’s explanation made sense, but he was also a little unwilling: “Why don’t you… give it a try? What’s wrong with trying?”

"Hmm... okay, let's give it a try." Encouraged by Yue Tian, ​​Bai Jie also had some thoughts. With the idea that "there's no harm in losing anything anyway," he decided to give it a try.

"Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits, hasten your wish, may the five thunderbolts strike!" Bai Jie muttered these cringeworthy lines under his breath, then pointed at the stone beside him with his claws.

silence... silence... silence...

“Uh… Third Master, isn’t it a bit impolite to say ‘Hurry up and do as you wish’ to Heaven and Earth?” Huang Jiu hesitated for a while before finally speaking up tactfully. He remembered that the plain language translation of “Hurry up and do as you wish” was something like “You hurry up and get up here.”

"Uh, you, you heard me?" Bai Jie blushed: She had spoken very softly, how could she still be heard? How embarrassing.

Just then, a loud boom was heard, and a bolt of lightning struck the rock that Bai Jie had just pointed to.

A flash of light and an explosion erupted, catching three beasts nearby completely off guard and turning them into tiny blind figures. Before they could react, four more loud booms followed, as if the five thunderbolts hadn't been enough and had been added four more.

Under the immense power, the cleaved stone could not withstand the force and shattered, sending fragments flying everywhere. Whether by luck or some other reason, the fragments just grazed past Bai Jie and the other two beasts without causing them any harm.

As his vision and hearing gradually returned, Bai Jie opened his eyes with a buzzing sound in his head. He stared blankly at the chaotic scene before turning his gaze to the sky: "No, Dad, when did you lose all your dignity? Just call out and you'll come out."

Tian: Wasn't this what you asked for?

Clearly, Bai Jie didn't have the ability to communicate with the Heavenly Dao, so he continued to complain: "And why did you wait a while before striking? Was there a delay?"

Tian expressed his innocence, saying it wasn't his fault; he was very busy, and unless Bai Jie was in danger, he would only occasionally take a look.

"Third, the third leader..." Yue Tian stammered.

"What?" Bai Jie asked, turning around after complaining about the Heavenly Dao.

"I understand." Yue Tian looked enlightened.

"Huh?" Three big question marks popped up above Bai Jie's head. He didn't understand what Yue Tian meant.

"What's the use of being able to fight? When you're out in the world, you need connections. It's because of Boss Bixie that I was able to win today. That's connections!" Yue Tian clapped his hands together in sudden realization. Huang Jiu, who was next to him, silently stepped back as if to say, "I don't know this wolf."

Bai Jie's lips twitched: This guy has definitely been looking at something weird again, but... you know what, it makes a lot of sense.

"Cough cough cough, um... can you help me first before we talk? I think I can still be saved."

A weak voice came from the side. The three beasts instinctively looked over, and the next second, they all exclaimed in shock, "Holy crap!"

The one who had spoken just now was the Black Bear Spirit, but his current appearance was... a terrible sight.

Previously, when the rubble was blasted everywhere, the three beasts of Baijie were indeed unharmed, but the Black Bear Spirit did not receive the same treatment. The rubble was embedded in his flesh, making him look like a bloody mess. Although it was not fatal, it looked extremely painful.

Bai Jie raised his paw to cover his eyes, and only spoke after he could no longer see the unbearable scene: "You've become like this, how come you haven't uttered a sound? Are you such a tough guy?"

Upon hearing this, the black bear spirit almost burst into tears: "Do you think I didn't shout? I did shout, but... didn't you hear me then?!"

"Ah, this." Bai Jie remembered: Back then, the three of them were deaf, so they really couldn't hear anything.

"Can you save me first before we talk about anything else? It hurts so much!" the black bear spirit groaned, his expression filled with utter despair: Why did I fight that horned beast? Why did I come here? I should have just stayed home and hibernated!

"Uh, we'll go get help right away, hang in there!" Only then did the three beasts finally come to their senses, and they turned and ran back. Before leaving, Yue Tian left them with these words.

Not long after, the three beasts returned with a large group of monsters. After some effort, the black bear spirit's wounds were healed. It was during this treatment process that Bai Jie was amazed. The process of removing the broken stones and applying herbs was nothing special. The main thing was that at the beginning, a poisonous snake went up and bit the black bear spirit, calling it anesthesia. This really made the beasts exclaim: "You can play it like this?"

"Third Master, that bear really had the worst luck to mess with you. Look what it did to you." On the way back to Caiyun Village after reuniting with the beasts, Yue Tian couldn't help but complain.

Bai Jie glanced at Yue Tian and muttered to himself: This is still good. If that slap had landed properly, there would be an extra plate of braised bear paw on my family's dining table. Hmm... it might even be a whole bear feast.
