Saved by a Black Dog

Rumble!

The Porcupine Demon's charge struck the large tree where Zhao Yingying was located in an instant, startling Zhao Shanshan, who was on the verge of losing consciousness, awake again.

Although Zhao Yingying on the tree hadn't fallen, her situation wasn't much better. The beast's charge had caused cracking sounds from the tree.

Zhao Yingying estimated that if the demon beast charged twice more, the tree she was on would definitely break. She quickly looked at the surrounding trees.

Unfortunately, the trees closer to her were smaller than this one, and the larger ones were too far away for her to leap to.

If she went to the smaller trees, they wouldn't withstand even one charge from the demon beast. Zhao Yingying didn't know what to do.

On the ground, the Porcupine Demon saw that its charge had been ineffective and slowly retreated, as if it wasn't in a hurry to knock Zhao Yingying down.

At this moment, the Porcupine Demon felt that these two people were definitely its prey for the day and couldn't possibly escape, so its movements were leisurely.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Every time the Porcupine Demon's hind legs dug into the dirt, Zhao Yingying's heart rate accelerated.

Boom!

The Porcupine Demon charged again. Zhao Yingying, on the tree, closed her eyes, having already given up struggling.

She could only pray in her heart that if a Prince Charming came to save her now, she would decide to marry him.

However, after closing her eyes and waiting for a while, Zhao Yingying didn't feel the Porcupine Demon's charge hit the tree. Moreover, why was it so quiet around her?

Hadn't it been earth-shattering just moments ago? Could her prayer have actually come true? Had a Prince Charming really appeared to save her?

Thinking this, Zhao Yingying quickly looked down and saw a scene that broke her heart. A black dog was standing in front of the Porcupine Demon.

It was precisely because of the sudden appearance of the black dog that the Porcupine Demon stopped its charge and stood there, staring at the black dog in front of it.

Zhao Yingying's current thought was: Oh heavens! Even if you didn't send a Prince Charming to save me, you could have at least sent a human!

What was the meaning of sending a black dog now? Was she, a dignified Princess, supposed to marry a black dog?

Zhao Yingying was distraught. However, she suddenly noticed something was wrong. How could an ordinary stray dog stop the charge of a Level Six Demonic Beast?

Furthermore, she wasn't sure if it was her imagination, but Zhao Yingying seemed to see the Level Six Demonic Beast, the Porcupine Demon, afraid of the black dog.

Woof woof woof...

Just as Zhao Yingying was lost in thought, the black dog barked twice at the Porcupine Demon. Then, to Zhao Yingying's astonishment, the Porcupine Demon, which had almost taken her and her sister's lives, just lay down on the ground.

Immediately after, the black dog flashed and appeared in front of the Porcupine Demon, grabbed it in its mouth, and disappeared. Zhao Yingying didn't even see how the black dog vanished.

Zhao Yingying, dumbfounded, couldn't understand how a black dog could carry such a large demon beast, nor how it had left.

"Ying... Yingying..."

Suddenly, a faint voice startled Zhao Yingying awake. She remembered her severely injured sister and quickly climbed down from the tree, hurrying to Zhao Shanshan's side.

"Sister, how are you?"

Zhao Yingying quickly took out a Healing Pill and gave it to Zhao Shanshan, asking with a worried expression.

"Yingying, I'm fine. Let's... let's get out of here quickly."

After swallowing the Healing Pill, Zhao Shanshan felt a bit better and was no longer as uncomfortable. However, she had suffered multiple fractures from being hit by the demon beast, and it would likely take at least half a year to recover.

"Sister, I'll carry you out now."

Zhao Yingying carefully placed Zhao Shanshan on her back and headed towards the outer edges of the Thunder Mountain Range. She had to leave the Thunder Mountain Range before she could heal her sister. Otherwise, if they encountered any more demon beasts, they might not be so lucky.

Zhao Yingying carried Zhao Shanshan through mountains and rivers. Fortunately, they didn't encounter any more demon beasts on the way. However, Zhao Yingying was now in a difficult situation.

She seemed to be lost.

What made Zhao Yingying even more desperate was that Zhao Shanshan on her back had already fainted, perhaps because she felt safe, or due to exhaustion or her injuries.

Helplessly, Zhao Yingying could only keep walking. Anyway, they were already in the outer regions of the Thunder Mountain Range, and she would eventually find her way out.

Laga Village.

Mu Feiyang had just fed his daughter 300 milliliters of Spirit Milk. He hadn't intended to let her drink so much, but after she finished 100 milliliters and was still unsatisfied, Mu Feiyang prepared another 100 milliliters.

Only when his daughter finished 300 milliliters of Spirit Milk did she stop. As he walked out of the room, he saw Little Black carrying a large pig back.

Looking at the wild boar, which was as big as a calf, Mu Feiyang was speechless as he looked at Little Black. He wondered if the little guy had been craving food for too long and wanted to feast all at once.

"I meant for you to catch a pheasant or a wild rabbit, but you went and brought back such a big wild boar. Be careful not to stuff yourself to death."

Woof... Woof woof!

Little Black: Master, please rest assured. If I stuff myself to death, it's your fault.

Mu Feiyang shook his head, gave Little Black an instruction, and then waved his hand, taking the wild boar towards the back mountain. There was a small river there, so it would be better to handle it there to avoid the smell of blood all over the house.

Watching Mu Feiyang leave, Little Black trotted to the door of the room and lay down, waiting for its master to return with roasted meat.

"Glutton!"

Suddenly, a voice appeared in Little Black's mind. Little Black looked up proudly at the Undying Phoenix, which was locked in a chicken coop nearby, ignored it, and lay down again.

Half an hour later, Mu Feiyang returned after processing the wild boar. He took out a barbecue grill and placed the entire wild boar on it. Mu Feiyang simply snapped his fingers, and flames erupted from the grill.

Seeing Mu Feiyang start the barbecue, Little Black quickly ran back to its doghouse, grabbed a plate, and placed it beside Mu Feiyang before anxiously waiting.

Mu Feiyang acted as if he didn't see Little Black's actions, focusing on turning the wild boar on the grill. When the boar was almost cooked, Mu Feiyang took out his special seasoning and sprinkled it on the meat.

As Mu Feiyang sprinkled the seasoning, a unique aroma wafted out, making Little Black, who was watching from the side, drool uncontrollably. It paced back and forth around Mu Feiyang.

After another ten minutes, the Spirit Fire on the grill extinguished. Mu Feiyang took out a small dagger, sliced off a large piece with a swish, and tossed it into Little Black's food bowl.

"Eat up!"

Woof... Woof woof!

Little Black: Master, you're only giving me this little bit from such a big wild boar?

"Eat it first. What's the rush?"
