Qi Tian wasn’t in a hurry to spend his money. There was something he had wanted to do for a long time. He didn’t have the power to do it before, but now that he did, if he still held back, he might just end up causing harm to himself from the suppression of his feelings.
Qi Tian headed towards the mount store where he had bought his Red-Eyed Demon Wolf last time. On the way, he rode on Hu Niu, looking majestic, attracting attention from countless passersby.
Deep in the heart of Guchuan City within Jia Nan Mountain, there were demonic beasts everywhere in the surrounding mountains. For many years, one of the reasons why Guchuan City has managed to stand firm amidst this is because every cultivator living in the city understood who they could offend and who they absolutely should not touch.

Qi Tian looked young, about twelve or thirteen years old, and he was only at the fourth level of Qi Cultivation. However, the Golden Flur Tiger beneath him was an eye-catcher. That he had such a mount was enough proof that Qi Tian comes from a prestigious background. Although Qi Tian seemed to be alone, there were bound to be elder figures secretly protecting him. No one would dare to bully him for fear that later on these hidden protectors would pop out and wipe them out.
Of course, those who won’t take risks starve, and those who do grow fat. Some people liked to take risks and tried to strike it rich through unusual channels. Before they tried to strike at Qi Tian, they would have to consider whether their cultivation level and power were enough.
The strength of Hu Niu was on full display. It was at the peak of the eighth level of Qi Cultivation. Typically, demonic beasts were stronger than cultivators at the same level. Hu Niu could match up to an average cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation. And once one reached this sort of level in the Lianying realm, who wouldn’t be a local tyrant?
Unless there were overwhelming benefits, no one would want to make a move against Qi Tian. The Golden Flur Tiger was very tempting, but not enough for this bunch of people to recklessly attack Qi Tian.
Of course, there are those desperados who would risk their lives for benefits, those who would even risk their own lives. But even though they don’t value their lives, they aren’t reckless. In the bustling streets of Guchuan City, the chances of them forcibly attacking Qi Tian are practically zero.
As such, a strange scene played out in Guchuan City. A boy of about twelve or thirteen rode a rare Golden Flur Tiger through the city. While the cultivators of Guchuan City pointed at Qi Tian with envy, none of them dared to attack him.
Just as they were close to the mount store, Qi Tian kicked Hu Niu’s belly, who instantly understood and began to gallop wildly. The pedestrians on the road screamed in fright, quickly making way for this young man rampaging through the town on his tiger.
There were guards at the entrance of the mount store. Seeing the Golden Flur Tiger charging towards them, they were scared out of their wits. They wished they were born with extra legs so they could run faster. But these guards knew the proprietor’s methods well. If they dared to flee at this time, even if they escaped to the ends of the earth, the proprietor would find them. At that time, whether they would be skinned alive or tortured would depend entirely on the proprietor’s mood.
The guards were terrified but dared not run away. They unsheathed their swords, activated the runes on them, and stood trembling at the entrance of the mount store. At this moment, they had just one wish: that the ferocious Golden Flur Tiger wasn’t charging towards them.
In the blink of an eye, the Golden Flur Tiger had reached the mount store. Hu Niu suddenly stopped, opened her large mouth wide, and roared at the guards blocking the entrance.
Roar…
The roar echoed throughout Guchuan City. When Hu Niu opened her mouth to roar, the strong wind messed up the hair of the two guards in front of her. The rank odor of saliva sprayed from her large mouth onto the guards, leaving them in total disarray.
The guards stood dumbfounded, almost peeing their pants in fear. But they dared not make the first move. In the face of a top-level demonic beast like the Golden Flur Tiger from the Lianying realm, the one who strikes first usually ends up the worst.
Qi Tian sat on Hu Niu’s back, looking down at the guards blocking the way. He could see that they were so dutiful not out of courage, but out of fear. They didn’t feel any sense of loyalty towards the mount store, most of them looked scared to death. At least some of them should be willing to die for their employer. However, that was not the case.
Qi Tian gave a cold snort, saying coldly, “Is Wu Jin Xiu here? Tell him to come speak to me.”
A guard spotted that Qi Tian did not intend to forcefully charge into the mount store and hurriedly said, “Young Master, please calm down, I’ll go and report this right away.”
The guard went inside to report the situation. Hearing the news, the proprietor was taken aback. Anyone who could ride a Golden Flur Tiger was certainly not an ordinary person and must be of extremely high status. And the person specifically called his name. They must have a very close relationship with him, or at least he must be very familiar with him. In the Lianying realm, there were not many people who fulfilled these two conditions.
Without any time to think, Wu Jin Xiu speedily jogged towards the exterior of the Mount Store.
“I wonder which young sir has graced us with his presence? Please come in quickly.” Before he had even reached the door, Wu Jin Xiu could hardly help himself and began shouting eagerly.
“Wu Jin Xiu!” called out Qi Tian.
Wu Jin Xiu responded, “Coming, coming.”
As Wu Jin Xiu answered while moving towards the store door, Qi Tian finally understood. The proprietor of this mount shop was indeed Wu Jin Xiu. He truly was connected with Shi Yufeng.
“Do you remember me?” Qi Tian coldly said to Wu Jin Xiu.
“Hehe, young master, we have not met before, so how could there be any recognition?”
Upon looking up at Qi Tian, Wu Jin Xiu’s heart was suddenly contracted with fear. How could he forget Qi Tian? Qi Tian’s skill in taming beasts surpassed the ordinary man by far. On top of that, he had asked Shi Yufeng to kill Qi Tian and held him as a slave. Shi Yufeng suffered a great loss. If Shi Yufeng had not managed to escape quickly, he would have fallen in the process. This deepened Wu Jin Xiu’s impression of Qi Tian.
However, even if Qi Tian’s image was deeply imprinted in his soul, what would that matter? Qi Tian now stood atop the Peak of the Eighth Level of Qi Cultivation, riding a Golden Flur Tiger, his arrival bore no good intentions. Although Wu Jin Xiu was unafraid, he would still try to avoid the trouble if possible.
Qi Tian dismounted from Hu Niu’s back, he coldly glanced at Wu Jin Xiu and proceeded to approach him step by step. “Don’t remember me? Then I will make sure you see what I really look like, and perhaps you will remember.”
“I simply just don’t remember.” Wu Jin Xiu decided to feign ignorance and stood motionless.
Qi Tian didn’t even expect Wu Jin Xiu to admit to knowing him. He just wanted Wu Jin Xiu to stand still. Seeing Wu Jin Xiu fall for his trick, Qi Tian’s lips lifted into a smirk. Alarmed, Wu Jin Xiu made a move too late. Qi Tian had already shot out and grabbed Wu Jin Xiu’s collar. Before Wu Jin Xiu could summon his True Essence, Qi Tian threw him around, crashing him to the ground several times, making the dignified owner of the mount store intimately familiar with the ground.
Despite the humiliation, Wu Jin Xiu was tough. Realising he had been duped and insulted by Qi Tian, he risked potential severe repercussions and summoned his True Essence, lunging towards Qi Tian.
Before Wu Jin Xiu’s hands could grab his hands, Qi Tian let go of the collar, casually tossing Wu Jin Xiu away like a piece of garbage.
Wu Jin Xiu was wearing an Earth-grade Top Quality Spirit Armour, protecting him with a defence power of three thousand pounds. The armour was hard-earned, and despite Qi Tian’s surprise attack, the armour prevented any physical injury. Wu Jin Xiu at most looked disgraceful – with dirt smeared across his face, scattered hair, and clothes covered in soil with some torn patches. His appearance was a far cry from his usual pristine image.
Wu Jin Xiu rolled over and stood up. His eyes were burning with fury as he glared at Qi Tian and spoke in a low voice, “Young man, we bear no grudges yet you’re attacking so ruthlessly, publicly humiliating me. Have you decided that I, Wu JinXiu, am a pushover?”
Wu Jin Xiu’s words resonated with the crowd, who had gathered to see the commotion. They had clearly seen that Qi Tian had struck the first blow without any provocation from Wu Jin Xiu. On this point alone, Qi Tian was clearly in the wrong.
“Who is this kid? Why is he bullying people so much?”
“Shush, keep your voices down! Didn’t you see this young man came on a Golden Flur Tiger? Dare to ride such a fierce beast ostentatiously, his backing must not be simple. Possibly, someone around us is protecting him in secret. Stop making senseless comments, be careful in case someone decapitates you later.”
…
Qi Tian ignored the surrounding comments. It didn’t matter that they were natives from the Lianying Realm destined to live under different stars, he had no need to concern himself with their views and evaluations. Even if they were cultivators from Great Zhao instead of Lianying Realm natives, he wouldn’t take them too seriously. As Prussian’s strong prime minister said, the truth is found within the range of a cannon, the same is true in the Cultivation World.
