There is a beast: (Hundred Explanations)

Looking at Zhujian's rising momentum, Bai Jie couldn't help but doubt what Mian Tao had just said.

When Bai Jie caught Mian Tao, who was being thrown out, Mian Tao first told Bai Jie to hurry up and save her father, and then said that if possible, she should not kill Zhu Jian, because he was not a bad beast.

"Tsk—" Bai Jie was speechless. It was hard to imagine that Zhu Jian wasn't a bad person. I hadn't even done anything yet, and this guy could already kill beasts with a glance.

Before he could think any further, Zhujian had already lashed out with his tail.

The tail was fast, but Bai Jie had accumulated a lot of practical experience. When he was still some distance away, he dodged the attack with a quick movement.

Its tail slammed directly onto a rock, shattering it instantly.

Seeing that his first attack had failed, Zhujian calmly swung his sword a second time, with the same force as before.

"Hmph! If you can dodge the first time, you can definitely dodge the second time. Haven't you heard?" Bai Jie grinned.

Then he perfectly replicated the dodge he had made to avoid the tail last time.

At this moment, Bai Jie saw that Zhu Jian's lips were also curving upwards, and she immediately sensed something was wrong.

As expected, this time the tail strike wasn't a one-time burst of power like it was last time.

Instead, it swings at will, just like a missile with a tracking device.

"Damn it!"

Bai Jie thought to herself that she had been too presumptuous just now.

Despite the unexpected turn of events, he remained calm.

He used all his power and dream energy, gathering it in his claws, and grabbed the tail that was whipping towards him.

As her own power collided with the divine power on the tail of the Zhujian, Bai Jie finally felt the force on the tail gradually diminishing as they continuously neutralized each other.

Zhujian was shocked that this golden creature was actually able to block his tail lash!

You know, this is what I make a living from. My ever-present tail was caught like this.

He used his divine power to pull his tail back from Bai Jie's claws.

He pulled back with great force, and before Bai Jie could react, her claws were empty.

Bai Jie stared intently at Zhu Jian. This guy's tail was indeed powerful. She wondered if his main body was just as strong. With a powerful leap, she closed in on Zhu Jian.

Zhu Jian looked at Bai Jie as she jumped and couldn't help but wonder, wasn't this guy supposed to be very strong? Judging from her dodging and counterattacks just now, she should have a lot of practical experience. How could she make such a mistake now?

You might be able to dodge his attack on the ground, but how do you dodge it in the air? He certainly wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.

Just as he was about to launch an attack, he suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.

"Damn it! It's that power again." Zhujian gritted his teeth and roared, dispelling the dazed feeling.

It was during this time of dispersal that he missed the best opportunity to attack Bai Jie.

Before he could react, Bai Jie had already swung her claws out in front of him and slapped him hard across the face.

Because all his divine power is concentrated in his tail, his physical body is just like that of an ordinary divine beast.

Bai Jie's attack combined power control and the use of dream energy, carrying a mental attack alongside the physical attack, a combination of physical and magical damage.

"Duang~"

Without any power to resist, Zhujian's body flew backward.

"Phew~ It seems the main body isn't as strong as the tail." Bai Jie looked at the Zhujian lying motionless in the distance and clapped her paws in amazement.

That tail lash from that guy really made Bai Jie's claws hurt, but thankfully, her strength wasn't just one type.

Dream energy can still have unexpected effects when used in battle.

"Hmm, it's time to go check on this guy, see if he's passed out, and if not, give him another punch," Bai Jie thought to herself.

They trotted towards the spot where Zhujian had fallen.

Zhujian 'slept' very peacefully.

Looks like he won't wake up anytime soon, no need for another punch.

Bai Jie looked at Zhujian's tail with curiosity. It was so long and strong, it was really amazing.

His claws reached for the tail of the mongoose, and just as they touched it...

"Roar!" He was instantly jolted awake from his unconscious state, his eyes filled with bloodlust as he glared menacingly at Bai Jie.

Bai Jie instinctively stepped back, assuming a ready-to-attack stance, but Zhu Jian didn't stare for long before closing his eyes and collapsing.

"?" Bai Jie was a little surprised. What had just happened? He had repeatedly confirmed that Zhu Jian should not have woken up so quickly.

"Is it a tail?" Bai Jie pondered, looking at Zhujian's tail.

It seems this thing shouldn't be touched carelessly, as there's a risk of waking up the Zhujian.

Hmm... Cotton Peach said this guy isn't a bad beast? If that's the case, we should be able to recruit him.

However, their own group of beasts had already clashed with these Zhujians. How could they possibly quell his anger and wariness...?

Looking at Zhujian sleeping like a baby, Bai Jie had an idea in mind. He had used it on Tanuki before.

"Then let me weave a dream for you," Bai Jie said with a smile.

His claws touched Zhujian's forehead, and dream energy surged into Zhujian's mind, weaving a dream about their group of beasts, allowing Zhujian to understand their beastly behavior.

A smile appeared on Zhujian's lips as he slept, and Bai Jie thought the effect was quite good.

He carried Zhujian on his back and walked towards the direction of the Four-Unlikes.

. . .

The four are on this side.

"Can you give me back the kettle?" Si Bu Xiang said calmly, looking at Cotton Peach's father who was drinking from the bottle.

Cotton Boll's father thought the Four-Unlikes was reluctant to part with the water in the bottle. He shook the bottle and found that there wasn't much water left. "There's still a little left. Let me finish it?"

"...Okay, just don't touch your mouth."

When Cotton Peach's father heard Four-Unlikes' words, his mind went blank. What...what? Don't touch your mouth, what does that mean?

"Ah, okay," Cotton Boll's father replied.

He simply refused to touch the water with his mouth, so why should he refuse? He poured the remaining water into his mouth and drank it.

He licked his lips contentedly, then returned the water bottle to the Four-Faced Beast.

Sibuxiang planned to wash the kettle when he went back, but for now, he'll put it back in the dream world.

He walked to the side, and suddenly Cotton Boll's head popped out from behind him.

She asked curiously, "You stinky Qilin, what did you just give Daddy to drink? Daddy recovered so quickly, and he looked so satisfied!"

Si Bu Xiang glanced at Mian Tao and said indifferently, "Little Spot, I saved your father, and you still call me a stinky Qilin?"

Cotton Peach blushed slightly upon hearing the Four-Faced Beast's words, "Yes, I'm sorry, I'm just used to calling it that, I haven't changed it..."

"Then, then, can you tell me about the Four-Unlikes?" Cotton Peach asked with curiosity in her eyes.

"Hmph~ Of course, that water belongs to our Qilin clan~" The Four-Faced Beast paused deliberately, "drool~"
