I Just Won't Play By The Book
chapter-68

“Are you done?” Jiang Beiran took a step forward and asked the Blood Shadow Beast.

“Awooo…”

The Blood Shadow Beast raised its two front claws and waved them wildly. It also kept roaring at Jiang Beiran.

Seeing the Blood Shadow Beast acting like this, Jiang Beiran couldn’t help but think that it looked like a “husky”, and a really dumb one. At this time, Wu Qingce, who had already recovered, walked to Jiang Beiran’s side and said, “It seems that it is still very unconvinced, but it knows that it absolutely can’t beat you, so it can only go crazy there.” “So, do you want it or not? The red wild aura should be quite special, and it feels like it has a lot of potential.”

“Yes… Of course I want it, but how can I subdue it without you?”

“Can’t you just train it a little?” Jiang Beiran said as he walked forward. Just as he was about to reach out his hand, the Blood Shadow Beast was so scared that it kept backing off.

“Don’t run, don’t run, I won’t hit you this time.” Jiang Beiran tried his best to show a friendly look as he slowly walked towards the Blood Shadow Beast. However, the Blood Shadow Beast obviously didn’t believe him, so it turned around and hid behind a tree.

Just as it was about to poke its head out to see if Jiang Beiran had walked over, it heard a voice behind it that made its body tremble. “Hey, I told you not to run. You can’t run away anyway, right?”

“Gulp…”

After swallowing a large mouthful of saliva, the Blood Shadow Beast turned its head with a tremble. Its eyes were full of fear.

“Judging from your performance just now, you seem to understand human language. Come, shake hands.” After saying that, Jiang Beiran extended his right hand towards the Blood Shadow Beast.

“Wu…” looking at Jiang Beiran’s extended right hand, the Blood Shadow Beast blinked its eyes twice, hesitating about what to do. With a slight smile, Jiang Beiran’s palm broke the spruce tree that the Blood Shadow Beast was leaning against. Then, he extended his hand again and said, “Come, let’s shake hands.”

Feeling the power of that palm just now, the Blood Shadow Beast’s entire body trembled. Looking at Jiang Beiran’s friendly smile, it finally reached out its claws and grasped it.

“Hmm, good boy, good boy.” Jiang Beiran nodded in satisfaction and touched the Blood Shadow Beast’s furry head.

Then, he turned to look at Wu Qingce and Thunder Patterned Leopard who were watching from the side and said, “Why are you looking at me? You guys continue to fight. The only factor outside the ring has been eliminated. You guys can continue to fight to your heart’s content.”

“Oh…”

Wu Qingce nodded and walked toward Thunder Patterned Leopard. He used his body language to express his intention to continue fighting.

n.

Finally, it took a look at the Blood Shadow Beast whose head was touched by Jiang Beiran. Thunder Patterned Leopard rearranged its stance and stared at Wu Qingce. It had to win this battle, or else it would die!

After a while, Jiang Beiran brought the Blood Shadow Beast to Wu Qingce, who was already exhausted. Jiang Beiran looked around at the large area of fallen spruce trees, he nodded slightly and said, “Not bad, you actually won.”

“Cough… cough…” Wu Qingce, whose chest had almost completely caved in, coughed out two mouthfuls of blood. “But I barely win, I have disappointed you.”

“There’s nothing to be disappointed about. You were very outstanding to be able to defeat Thunder Patterned Leopard, but you did make a lot of mistakes in the process. Go back and practice more.” After saying that, Jiang Beiran took out a small jade bottle from his storage ring and poured a pill that was emitting a green light into Wu Qingce’s mouth.

“Lie down for a while more. Your injuries are a little severe this time. Let the energy recovery pill protect your heart meridian first.” After eating the energy recovery pill, it felt like a breeze blowing into his body through his throat. Wu Qingce was much more comfortable. He nodded and said, “Thank you, Brother Jiang.” After lightly patting Wu Qingce’s shoulder twice, Jiang Beiran walked to the side of Thunder Patterned Leopard, whose four tails were all broken and no longer had any strength to recover. He squatted down next to him.

“You fought well. Thank you for your hard work.”

Although Thunder Patterned Leopard did not understand, it felt that the person in front of it did not intend to kill it, so it quickly cried out.

After taking out a green jar from the storage ring, Jiang Beiran opened Thunder Patterned Leopard’s mouth and poured half a bottle of ancient spirit wine into it. “Take a rest.” touching Thunder Patterned Leopard’s face, Jiang Beiran stood up and walked towards the Demon Beast.

When so many things happened just now, the Demon Beast sat on the spot and didn’t dare to move at all. Now that it saw Jiang Beiran walking over, it immediately showed a fawning smile, because it knew that the human in front of it didn’t seem to intend to kill them. Of course, the prerequisite was that they didn’t act recklessly.

Touching the Demon Beast’s belly, Jiang Beiran said somewhat regretfully, “Actually, the mystic fire essence in your body is a very good material, but you’re really too weak. I reckon you haven’t even condensed it yet. What a pity, what a pity.”

The Demon Beast didn’t understand what Jiang Beiran was saying. After being touched on the belly, it lied down and showed its belly in front of Jiang Beiran.

This made the Blood Shadow Beast, who could understand what Jiang Beiran was talking about, worried for Demon Beast. At the same time, it was glad that it was weak enough. Otherwise, if it had formed the inner core, it would probably be dead by now.

“Good, good, good, good, good.” Jiang Beiran touched the furry belly of the Demon Beast twice and turned to look at the Blood Shadow Beast and asked, “Has the Thunder Spirit Flower bloomed?”

After hearing this, the Blood Shadow Beast shook its head and stretched out its claws to point at the depths of the forest.

“It hasn’t bloomed?” Jiang Beiran was a little surprised.

The Thunder Spirit Flower was the treasure that Jiang Beiran had divined this time. This kind of flower could naturally condense the lightning energy between heaven and earth. If it was consumed, it could greatly increase the resistance of one’s body to lightning attack. Moreover, one’s attack move would also contain the power of lightning. However, directly consuming it orally was the most wasteful method. If the Thunder Spirit Flower could be made into a medicinal pill, then the effect of the Thunder Spirit Flower would multiply, and Jiang Beiran just happened to know how to refine it.

“Then let’s wait a little longer. We can let them recover for a little while.”

As Jiang Beiran spoke, he took out another blue-colored storage ring from his pocket and took out a few pieces of big meat from it.

“Are you hungry?” Jiang Beiran looked at the Blood Shadow Beast and asked.

The Blood Shadow Beast wanted to shake its head, but when it smelled the meat, it immediately nodded.

“Okay, let’s wait for a while.”

Jiang Beiran took out some tools from the ring and made a simple barbeque rack. Then, he skewered two pieces of meat that were about the size of a round table.

Then, he prepared the charcoal, lit a fire, put meat on the rack, and sprinkled seasonings.

A mouth-watering aroma of meat instantly spread out.

“Brother Jiang is cooking!”

Wu Qingce immediately opened his eyes when he smelled the aroma. He did not care that the injuries on his body. He directly sat up and began to use the Rhymed Formula of Returning Hearts to heal his injuries.

“Ha… ha… ha…”

The Blood Shadow Beast standing behind Jiang Beiran had already drooled all over the ground. It stuck out its tongue with a face full of anticipation.

After sprinkling a handful of fennel powder, Jiang Beiran moved closer and took a sniff.

“Yes, it’s perfect. I’m so good.”

After saying that, he took out a small knife and cut off a piece of meat. He put it to his mouth and tasted it.

“Awesome. The meat of Soul Devouring Beast is so fragrant.”

As soon as Jiang Beiran said that, the Blood Shadow Beast, which was still drooling with its tongue sticking out, suddenly trembled. It looked at Jiang Beiran with a much more fearful expression.
