Tiger-eared Youth

"Luo Tian... hey, wake up."

A voice called Luo Tian's name, and he groggily opened his eyes.

A vast grassland filled his view. The breeze sweeping across it gently brushed his face, making him feel incredibly comfortable, but he could not remember anything. He did not even remember why he was here.

He stood blankly on the grassland when a huge shadow passed over him.

Though he did not know what cast it, the image of a dragon immediately surfaced in Luo Tian's mind.

Just as Luo Tian lifted his right leg, an arrow shot toward his eye at the speed of sound. When it was still a meter away from his eye, it was instantly blocked by a Wind Wall.

"Tut."

The quiet click of a tongue from somewhere unknown immediately allowed Luo Tian to pinpoint the exact location of the person who had made it.

Luo Tian did not know why blue grass immediately wrapped around his feet, but he knew it was harmless to him. It even had a strengthening effect on him.

He instantly arrived where the tongue-click had come from, yet there was no one there. He found it strange. He did not know why, but he trusted his hearing deeply. Yet now, his hearing had been disproven, and he felt something was off.

Suddenly, a dagger shot straight for his throat, but it was blocked by another wall that appeared. This time, however, it was a Light Wall rather than a Wind Wall.

"Who are you?"

Luo Tian spoke, but the person before him looked like a youth with a pair of tiger ears on his head.

"A mere human is not worthy of knowing who I am!"

As he spoke, many more arrows shot toward Luo Tian. This time, what appeared behind Luo Tian was no longer a wall, but flames of extreme heat. The arrows were instantly vaporized by the flames, while the grassland remained unharmed. Only the arrows were vaporized.

"Ah, what a pain. Since you refuse to speak, there's no point in keeping you alive."

Luo Tian had developed the intent to kill the youth. The youth had kept attacking him without saying a word. If he had not been inexplicably protected by some kind of power, he might already have died. Even if the youth was a child, there was no need to pity someone who wanted to kill him.

Just like that, Luo Tian activated the God-Slaying Domain, Intimidation Domain, Ghost-Slaying Domain, and Spirit-Hunting Domain.

The youth was so terrified that an unknown liquid leaked from between his legs. Luo Tian felt a little awkward just looking at him. The other party was his enemy, but he was still a child. Even though he was an enemy, Luo Tian had scared a child into this state.

Just as Luo Tian did not know what to do, a shadow suddenly drew closer and closer to him. That enormous creature nearly crashed into him, but in an instant, Luo Tian grabbed the youth and dodged aside.

When Luo Tian saw what it was, he blurted out—

"A lizard with wings?"

The lizard had clearly understood Luo Tian's words. Without saying anything, it swung its tail at him.

Luo Tian felt that it was only a lizard and that he should be able to withstand it. Then a wind blade directly severed its tail.

"Ah!"

The lizard cried out, immediately flew into the sky, and then flew away.

The Tiger-eared youth was left at a loss. As Luo Tian held him, he could feel him trembling all over.

Luo Tian put him down and no longer intended to kill him. After all, how could someone whose eyes were filled with despair possibly pose a threat to him?

Luo Tian casually asked,

"Where is this?"

The Tiger-eared youth answered tremblingly,

"Th-this is a grassland somewhere on the Fairy Continent."
