Upon hearing their quiet, interested muttering, Sakata Hirokazu quickly stepped forward, speaking bitterly, "Senior fellows, this Black Tiger is raised by Hu Xiaobei! It is very strong; we have suffered at its paws several times!"
As he explained this, Sakata Hirokazu looked resentfully at the Black Tiger, truly wishing he could chop it to pieces!
"Hm!"
"We understand!"
"Leave it to us!"
After nodding slightly, the five men took a step forward with pride...
Seeing them step out, everyone but Sakata Hirokazu felt a tinge of unease!
Earlier, they had heard from Sakata Hirokazu that these men were formidable, but it was just hearsay, they hadn't actually seen it...
So they were worried that these few might be embarrassingly defeated by the Black Tiger, scattering like rats at the first sign of trouble!
"These fools! Once they see the terrifying strength displayed by these senior ninjas, they won't be uncertain anymore!"
After saying this, Sakata Hirokazu hummed a cheerful tune!
In his view, once these five men got serious, not just one Hu Xiaobei, but ten, or even a hundred would not be enough to take them down!
As soon as they made their move, everything would be predetermined—Hu Xiaobei would spend the rest of his life as nothing but a dog in some dark, obscure company!
...
"I know you understand what I'm saying, so don't follow that damn Hu Xiaobei anymore. Follow me!"
Having approached the Black Tiger, the leader of the five ninja brothers took one look at it and quickly spoke up!
He had taken a liking to it at first glance...
Now, upon observing it up close, his heart was moved even more, and he was truly eager to make it his own pet!
However, after he finished speaking, his expression soured, for he found that the Black Tiger didn't agree with him but instead looked at him mockingly!
"It seems you want to challenge me! But, I don't think you're qualified yet!"
Saying this, he glanced at the scar-faced man, "Five, go test the strength of this Black Tiger!"
"Alright!"
The Scarred Man consented and rushed toward it swiftly!
Such speed!
When he burst into action, everyone present was utterly astonished!
In that instant, they gained a much clearer understanding of the strength of these few men!
Thinking this, everyone then heard a heaven-shaking roar...
Quickly, they saw the Black Tiger's eyes bulge like brass bells, and at the same time, its aura was rapidly climbing...
"My goodness, it seems it never really got serious before!"
Hearing such an enraged growl, those standing behind Sakata Hirokazu twitched at the corners of their mouths...
Before, they thought the Black Tiger had given its all against them, but only now did they realize that had not been the case at all...
"Not bad, the aura is interesting!"
The Scarred Man rushing forward chuckled and accelerated again!
Earlier, he worried the Black Tiger was too weak, so he hadn't planned to get serious, but now, he felt its strength was not too shabby!
"This..."
Seeing the Scarred Man's speed climb again, everyone gasped...
In that moment, it became clear to them that they must never offend these men, or they really wouldn't know how they died!
...
"Roar!"
As he approached, Hei's front paw instantly lifted and slammed down mightily!
"Damn, being hit by that would kill one, if not seriously injure!"
While everyone mumbled this, the ninja vanished in an instant...
"This..."
Watching as he disappeared right in front of them, everyone was caught off guard...
Their shock didn't mean Hei was confused!
After the man vanished, Hei quickly condensed Qi, and soon, its thick tail slammed down towards the ground...
Quickly, the Scarred Man who had vanished earlier emerged from underground...
"It seems I underestimated you earlier!"
When speaking like this, the scar-faced man was very composed…
"My goodness, it's like immortals fighting!"
"Exactly!"
"We can't afford to provoke them, no way!"
Before, all the tourists believed that Hei had enough strength, so they thought it could handle the situation, but now they realized this was not the case!
Hei's two previous attacks had not gained any advantage…
…
"Young Master Sakata, they are really impressive!"
"Indeed!"
"With them here, we are invincible!"
While everyone was still in shock, Fang Xiong, Lin Wei, and others swiftly gathered around Sakata Hirokazu, fawning over him excessively!
Before, they were somewhat nervous, worried that they might fail again, but now they knew for certain that they would not fail, as their strength was truly powerful…
Hearing their flattery, Sakata Hirokazu smiled…
"Xiaobei, you'd better come back soon!"
Watching the scar-faced man gradually gaining the upper hand, Guo Meiyu and the others couldn't help murmuring!
They all knew that, under the current circumstances, the only way to quickly turn things around was to rely on Hu Xiaobei…
…
In the forest, Hu Xiaobei stared intently at the Treasure-hunting Rabbit that had just completed its breakthrough…
At this moment, Hu Xiaobei had a strange expression on his face because he noticed that after its breakthrough, there was no change in its aura!
"This… couldn't be a failed breakthrough, could it?"
Thinking this, Hu Xiaobei suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder!
Turning his head, he saw it perched on his shoulder, looking at him with a pleasing gaze!
"It's much faster than before!"
Admiring it, Hu Xiaobei rubbed its little head.
At this moment, Hu Xiaobei distinctly felt it had become much more affectionate towards him!
Hu Xiaobei's feeling was correct; it had indeed become more affectionate towards him. Even though the Treasure-hunting Rabbit was breaking through, it was fully aware of what was happening!
It knew that its successful breakthrough was entirely due to Hu Xiaobei, so it now treated Hu Xiaobei completely as a family member…
"All right, you've finished your breakthrough; I should be going. If you have time later, come visit me in the village!"
Hu Xiaobei knew the purpose of this trip was to find medicinal herbs, and now that he had found them, there was no need to stay any longer!
So, after saying this, Hu Xiaobei prepared to leave!
At this moment, Hu Xiaobei heard it start to squeak and chatter!
After understanding what it wanted to convey, Hu Xiaobei rubbed his nose and said, "Er… you mean you want to come with me?"
Having said this, Hu Xiaobei saw it nod quickly and even nuzzled his face voluntarily!
"Well, okay then! If you want to come with me, whenever I have something to eat, you'll have something too!"
When in deep debt, one stops worrying, and when lice are abundant, they cease to itch!
Previously, Hu Xiaobei already had Xiaobai and Hei, so he really didn't mind having one more!
Moreover, Hu Xiaobei felt it might be more useful than Xiaobai and Hei!
Thinking this, Hu Xiaobei lowered his head to glance at Xiaobai, who was sleeping like a pig, rubbed his nose, and quickly said, "Let's go!"
After saying this, Hu Xiaobei saw it lazily get up!
Watching its languid demeanor, Hu Xiaobei couldn't help but roll his eyes…
Just when Hu Xiaobei was about to say something, he suddenly felt his shoulder lighten.
Turning his head, Hu Xiaobei saw the Treasure-hunting Rabbit appear out of nowhere on Xiaobai's head!
Xiaobai, surprised by its sudden presence, started to shake its head quickly…
But no matter what it did, it couldn't shake it off…
This left Xiaobai feeling helpless, lying down on the ground in a huff…
Just as Hu Xiaobei was about to step in and mediate a little, he suddenly saw them start to converse!
Soon, Hu Xiaobei saw the Treasure-hunting Rabbit disappear and, after a few dozen seconds, return with a huge red fruit in its fuzzy little paws!
The sight was somewhat comical…
Hu Xiaobei didn't laugh at this moment, because he recognized that in its fuzzy little hands, it was holding a Jade Pearl Fruit, a very rare medicinal herb…
