Chapter 16

Acting with one accord, the three mice avoided Cheng Qian who was covered in blood. Then two of them charged towards Yan Zhengming, and the the other ran to the front of Li Yun.

Li Yun was just like a passerby. He searched all over his body only to find that he had spent the whole day being upset and even forgot to bring any weapon with him... although it wouldn't necessarily be helpful even if he had brought one.

In a flurry, Li Yun plucked the colorful feather off his collar and used it as a weapon against the mouse spirit.

Since Zipeng Zhenren was an almighty being among monsters, even her feather had an out of the ordinary deterrent force. The mouse obviously cringed upon seeing it, moving around Li Yun with its shifty eyes goggled, weighing up whether he was bluffing or a real threat.

Li Yun was scared by the mouse's movement and, unfortunately, got a cramp in his thigh. But he knew there was no room to display the slightest amount of timidity, so he had to put up with it, which happened to make him appear more threatening.

Thankfully, Cheng Qian soon came to his aid with his fang.

It didn't take much effort for Cheng Qian to recover from killing. He thought that it would be a shocking and paralyzing feeling, yet it turned out that he didn't feel like that at all.

When he held the bloody sharp tooth, Cheng Qian was extremely calm, as if he had only cut a cabbage just now. His impassive face made him look like a life-claiming ghost.

Cheng Qian quickly noticed that this mouse spirit dreaded him, not the other way around. As he advanced, the mouse backed, even if its teeth were bared to intimidate him.

While the enemy's confidence decreased, Cheng Qian's increased. He even got bolder instead of recoiling. Realising its intimidation didn't work, the mouse confirmed that its opponent was not a guy to mess with and turned tail hurriedly.

Every being in the universe had intelligence and it was no easy task to cultivate. It had finally evolved into a spirit after much trouble, wouldn't it cherish its life?

Seeing that their fellow fled, the other two mice followed suit for precaution, even though they didn't figure out what happened.

This small handful of mice spirits scurried away helter-skelter.

Li Yun sank down on the ground. He finally earned himself a break to have the leg cramps go.

Nevertheless, just as they started to breathe after defeating the first wave of enemies, a strange sound came from behind into Yan Zhengming's ears. Cheng Qian seemed to notice something and cried from a distance, "DANGER!"

With a flash, Yan Zhengming flung himself forward and exerted the first move of the second form, "Cycle".1

He swung his sword fiercely, which hit some sharp weapon with a clash. And therewith sounded a gritty howl.

Yan Zhengming retreated awkwardly pinching the hilt of his sword. He spun to see a huge lynx nimbly landing several steps away from him and turning into a semi-humanoid form – that monster was hefty and had almost changed to a human shape, except the claws. It grinned weirdly, scarlet tongue licking its lips.

No wonder the mice spirits ran away so fast. While the mice hunted, the lynx was lurking behind!

Young master Yan was just a nice plump mouthful of soft flesh in the lynx's eyes. It scraped its toe tips against the ground, and in the next moment lunged for Yan Zhengming at a lightning speed. Its trenchant claws were nearly invulnerable. Not even fur was hurt when it clashed with the sword.
