Chapter 421 Tiger King


    "Beauty, I didn''t do anything! I was just asking the fox spirit questions!" Daniel hurried to exin.


    "Is that right? Were you just ''asking questions''? Looks to me like you were flirting with her."


    "If you''re jealous, Beauty, you''re wee to flirt with me too! I wouldn''t reject you," Daniel said with


    a sly smile.


    "Scumbag!" said Beauty, her voice dripping with disdain. Then, fiercely: "You''ve got three minutes. If


    you don''t find the Tiger King, you lose! And then, you''ll have to kneel before Soldier, headbutt the


    ground, and call him ''grandpa.'' I wonder what you''ll do then, country boy?"


    At that moment:


    "Roarrrr!"

    A tiger''s roar resounded suddenly. Hearing it, Soldier’s legs went weak, and he sat down hard on


    the ground, creating an unmistakable wet patch. At the same time, an acrid smell filled the air.


    The nearby undergrowth began to stir, and a tiger,rger than an elephant and golden, approached


    with definitive steps.


    Thud! Thud! Thud!


    The Tiger King was approaching. With every step, the ground trembled violently, as if a minor


    earthquake had struck.


    Lily took one look at the Tiger King and hurriedly hid behind Daniel. It was obvious; she feared the


    Spirit Animal.


    Daniel couldn''t help butugh. "You, a thousand-year-old fox spirit, scared of the Tiger King?"


    "Since when do foxes not fear tigers? This is a Spirit Animal! It''s dangerous! Ever since the Tiger


    King escaped, many animals on Spirit Hill have vanished. Those who could escape did, and many


    that could not have ended up in its stomach."


    Beauty, however, showed no fear, standing beside Daniel. He nced at her curiously. "Aren''t you


    scared of the Tiger King?"


    "It''s a pet raised by my family. Why should I be afraid? Besides, I have you here. You’re so capable,


    why don’t you take control of it?"


    Daniel gestured at Soldier—sitting on the ground, already soiled with fear—and reminded Beauty


    with a chuckle, "It was him you hired to guard the Tiger King. He took the sry, so why should I


    have to do the work? Whoever gets paid should do the job!"


    "I...I can''t. The Tiger King is too ferocious; it’ll eat me!" Soldier confessed candidly, giving up any


    pretense of bravery.


    In front of Daniel, he could feign toughness, but in front of the Tiger King, the pretense crumbled.


    After all, a Spirit Animal was still an animal—one capable of devouring humans.


    As Soldier shook his head and retreated, he spoke: "Country boy, just a moment ago you called the


    Tiger King a big house cat. If that’s true, rubbing its head should be no problem. If you’re so skilled,


    go ahead and rub the Tiger King’s head! See if it won’t bite your head off!"


    "It is a big cat! Just a pat on its head. What could be easier than that?"


    With those words, Daniel strolled casually toward the Tiger King.


    As she watched, Beauty was struck with fear. She quickly warned him, "Country boy, stop right


    there! Have you lost your mind? That’s the Tiger King; its jaws are bigger than your head. Don’t be


    careless; it might just eat you up!"
