"Little White Tiger!"

Mu Ningxue was surprised. Since when was the little creature following them? She had clearly left him at Fanxue Mountain!

The little cub had been left at the mountain after signing a Contract with Mu Ningxue.

He enjoyed keeping the Moon Moth Phoenix company and stirring up trouble on the mountain. Mu Ningxue did not even bother asking how he was doing. Whenever the patrols caught him on Fanxue Mountain, she would let him play in her backyard for a while.

Mu Ningxue had clearly told the little cub to stay behind, but he had been following her instead!

It was not the time to scold the little cub, as they happened to be in a pinch right now. Mo Fan and Zhang Xiaohou were in danger, while Mu Ningxue was finding it difficult to fire another arrow.

The little cub was behaving differently than his usual naughty self. He had dug his claws into the Sea Skeleton King's head and split its face in half!

The glacier emerging from the bottom of the sea was stabbing at the Sea Skeleton King like a spear the little cub had Summoned!

The Sea Skeleton King had suddenly sustained a serious blow. The giant hand that was going to crush Zhang Xiaohou at any second was shattered.

Zhang Xiaohou took hold of the opportunity to break free from the Sea Skeleton King's grasp. He flew into the distance while coddling the Four-Eyed Bird, trying to distance himself from the Sea Skeleton King.

The Sea Skeleton King let out thunderous cries. It shook its body to smash the glacier binding it and directed its destructive Aura at the little cub.

The little cub decisively backed away after the attack. He was both cunning and agile, and the little creature was also surprisingly fast. He fell on the cage of black seawater like a beam of white light.

The angry Sea Skeleton King did not chase after the little cub, racing after Zhang Xiaohou instead.

The sea was surging madly, but Zhang Xiaohou had the advantage of speed. If he insisted on running away, even a Supreme Ruler would find it hard to stop him!

The little cub went to Mo Fan and raised his front limbs, stomping the water.

The water froze rapidly, from the surface all the way to the bottom of the sea. The black seawater that was trapping Mo Fan finally stopped moving, giving him a moment to catch his breath.

The little cub stood at the opening and looked down at Mo Fan like he was saying, "Do you need a hand?"

Mo Fan swam back to the surface and returned to the warm and bright world. His Heavenly Flames erupted once again.

The little cub raised his head proudly, like a savior waiting to be worshiped by the people.

"Why are you so proud of yourself? Go ahead and kill that thing if you can! You are a direct descendant of a Sacred Totem Beast! You are supposed to be the Ancient Sea Gods' nemesis, but you only came to reap the harvest after we did the hard work!" Mo Fan complained.

The little cub's whiskers quivered to show his anger.

"We have been taking care of you for free while you do nothing. Why aren't you chasing after that creature and killing it?" Mo Fan pinched the little cub's face.

The little cub shook its head like he was saying, "I'm not going to step forward to be struck down first! We'll go together!"

"You are embarrassing the name of the Sacred Totem Beasts. Other Sacred Totem Beasts would have fought it alone!" Mo Fan scolded it.

The shameless little cub simply ignored Mo Fan's mockery.

He was just a little cub. He did not have to bear the responsibilities that were not applicable to his age!

"Then hurry up and give me a ride instead!" Mo Fan said.

Why did he always have to deal with these selfish creatures? Both Apas and the little cub were the same!

The little cub finally agreed when he heard he would not have to fight the enemy himself. He transformed into his true form of an imperious Sacred Tiger of the Scar. He revealed the true appearance of a Sacred Totem Beast, even though his stripes were still not as stunning as the mature Sacred Tiger of the Scar Mo Fan had encountered.

While the little cub was chasing the Sea Skeleton King, he earnestly explained to Mo Fan that the Sacred Tigers of the Scar would only give birth to one child in every generation. His life was more precious than China's national treasures, and he had to treat his life preciously. Otherwise, he would be the last of his kind!

Mo Fan was seriously not in the mood to listen to the little cub's excuses to justify his cowardice. He suddenly realized Zhao Manyan was a more suitable master for the cub!

"You are an odd one among the Totem Beasts. Are you sure you possess the lineage of the Sacred Tigers? Are you sure you are not a weasel instead?" Mo Fan pinched the little cub's ear.

The little cub was unperturbed. He could not have cared less about being humiliated by humans.

The little cub could easily catch up to the Sea Skeleton King with his speed, but it maintained a safe distance from it. Mo Fan was unable to do anything.

"Mo Fan, the Sea Skeleton King no longer has the Four-Eyed Bird's power. It's our best chance at killing it!" Mu Bai and Zhao Manyan had caught up to Mo Fan by riding the Wind Gauze Inferior Dragon.

Mu Ningxue eventually regrouped with them, too. She did not need a ride from the little cub, since she had her Wind Wings. It was a big reason why she felt it was unnecessary to sign a Contract with the little cub.

"Why does Zhang Xiaohou keep running? We have gone so far away from the island!" Zhao Manyan complained.

"At least he can still run. If the Sea Skeleton King captures the Four-Eyed Bird, all our efforts are in vain. Let the chase continue, we'll attack the Sea Skeleton King from behind while it chases after the Four-Eyed Bird!" Mo Fan exclaimed.

"It's too dangerous for us to fight the Sea Skeleton King. If it focuses on killing us, we won't stand a chance!" Zhao Manyan sounded a little afraid.

Mo Fan was troubled, too. His strongest form of the King of Hell was not very effective against the Water Element creature. He needed to figure out another way to kill the Sea Skeleton King.

He felt the sudden need to improve his other Elements. Otherwise, he would always find himself at a disadvantage when fighting sea monsters!

"Lure it to the land. Its strength should weaken by half!" Mu Bai pointed out.

Mo Fan smacked himself on the head.

That's right, his magic was no longer restrained if he was back on land. On the other hand, the Sea Skeleton King's power would drop significantly.

"Houzi, lure it to the land!" Mo Fan told Zhang Xiaohou with the communication device.

Zhang Xiaohou was in a tough position. He did not dare reduce his speed or change his direction. The Sea Skeleton King was like an ocean, reaching out its fierce claws for him, its enormous figure covering the entire sky. He would be swallowed if he slowed down even a little!

"I don't know where the land is!"

"Lingling, we need your guidance now!" Mo Fan yelled.

Luckily, the communication device was still working. Lingling's voice soon came out of the device.

"Don't stop. Keep going forward for a hundred kilometers. You should reach Xixiong City!" Lingling replied.

Jiang Shaoxu immediately spoke up before Lingling could finish the sentence, "Mo Fan, isn't Xixiong City where we spent the night in a temple? There's a volcanic island to its north! The Four-Eyed Bird needs the purest fire to regain its strength, a Mage's Fire Magic isn't enough. Put the Four-Eyed Bird inside the volcano, and it will transform into a real Totem Beast!" Jiang Shaoxu told them.

"Xixiong City… isn't that in Japan?" Zhao Manyan exclaimed.

"We have already traveled some distance from China. The closest land is Japan, and there's a volcano nearby!"
