Naive White Tiger

"Hmph! What the hell are you guys up to?"

The White Tiger's adorable face instantly showed displeasure. Having already extended her senses, she hadn't detected any threat to herself, so she suspected the Phoenix and Chimimōryō were just messing with her!

Faced with the White Tiger's disgruntled inquiry, the Phoenix and Chimimōryō didn't answer, only silently counting down in their minds...

Three seconds later, several mysterious Black Rods pierced through the White Tiger's body at various vital points, causing her to plummet from the sky to the ground. Constrained and controlled by the Black Rods, she completely lost control of her body, prostrating on the ground in a posture of complete helplessness...

The Phoenix looked at the White Tiger's miserable state, a hint of sympathy on its avian face. It was a 'veteran' of this, after all. The power of those mysterious Black Rods was truly bizarre and terrifying...

Prostrate on the ground, the White Tiger tried to communicate with the surrounding Natural Energy, but to no avail. Even the energy stored within her body couldn't be mobilized in the slightest. This made her uneasy and filled her with boundless anger!

As the 'Sky's Darling' in charge of wind and Space-Time Transfer, she had never been so humiliated since she gained sentience!

Especially being forced to prostrate on the ground in such a humiliating posture, soiling her snow-white fur!

"Firebird! Did you ambush me?"

The White Tiger roared at the Phoenix, but the loli's voice didn't sound angry at all, instead giving a sense of coquettishness.

"It wasn't me. You should know what my abilities are. I can't use that kind of thing."

The Phoenix shook its head, then added, "By the way, my name is 'Phoenix' now."

The White Tiger didn't care what the Phoenix was called. She just wanted to tear the guy who ambushed her to shreds with wind blades and throw him into the unknown Space-Time Transfer!

"Little demon, does that mean you're the one who ambushed me?!"

The White Tiger laboriously turned her head to look at the Chimimōryō on the other side, speaking to it with a contemptuous tone. Although it was phrased as a question, the White Tiger had already decided it was him.

After all, there were only the three of them nearby. It wasn't herself, and it wasn't the Phoenix, so the one who ambushed her was obvious!

The Chimimōryō dryly didn't dare to speak. Facing Yokai of the Phoenix and White Tiger's level, it was truly a 'little brother'. Having learned from the Phoenix's experience, it thought it was better to shut up, lest she use it as an excuse to give it a 'hazing' once she regained her freedom...

"Cough cough..."

At this moment, a coughing sound was heard, and then the White Tiger saw a 'person' suddenly appear before her eyes, as if out of thin air.

Since she was prostrate and struggling to lift her head, she could only roll her Byakugan to see Yuzuru clearly.

The 'person' before her had pale skin and pale white hair, with a strange long curved horn growing from his head, starting at the corner of his left eyebrow and ending at his right temple, looking like he was wearing a 'crown' from a distance!

The unique pure Byakugan and Golden Rice-Character Eyes in his eye sockets gave her a sense of pressure from the depths of her soul...

"Want to live?"

Yuzuru slowly squatted down and smiled at the White Tiger. In the latter's eyes, this smile looked like the grin of a demon from the abyss!

"Ah—"

So, in the next moment, the White Tiger suddenly let out a piercing loli roar, the sharp sound seeming to pierce the eardrums and go straight into the brain.

"Shut up!"

Yuzuru frowned at the White Tiger, and while loudly scolding, the pressure from his Dōjutsu Power directly landed on her, causing her to shut her mouth instantly. A pair of watery tiger eyes looked at Yuzuru expectantly, as if tears were about to flow out in the next moment.

Actually, it was no wonder the White Tiger was like this. She was not old herself, and coupled with her strong abilities, belonging to the kind that could definitely escape even if she couldn't win, so this also led to her character being very bold and curious about everything, because her abilities would prevent her from suffering any harm, and naturally she didn't know what fear and terror were...

Now being so easily subdued by Yuzuru, coupled with his 'unapproachable' appearance, suddenly scared the White Tiger 'child'. Therefore, her previous 'ah' was just a conditioned reflex of excessive fright...

"..."

Looking at the loli White Tiger who was about to cry, Yuzuru was speechless. Why were the Yokai he encountered so 'weird'?

No, it seemed like the Phoenix was a bit more normal!

Thinking of this, Yuzuru glanced at the Chimimōryō again, who immediately met his gaze with a flattering ugly face...

Moving his gaze away from the Chimimōryō's idiotic face, he couldn't help but use the same method to leave a countermeasure in the White Tiger's mind, and then took back the Black Rods from her body.

"Phoenix, heal her."

Yuzuru glanced at the White Tiger, who was cowering and dared not speak, and said irritably.

"Yes, Master!"

The Phoenix nodded, and then, in the White Tiger's astonished gaze, attached the Flames of Life to her body to heal her injuries. Instantly, the wounds on her body that had been pierced by the Black Rods recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if she had not suffered any penetrating damage at all.

"Phoenix, you... you call him master?"

The White Tiger took advantage of the Phoenix's healing to her, and while whispering, she looked at Yuzuru with a frightened expression.

"Yes."

The Phoenix nodded, then said to the White Tiger in a faint voice: "You have to call him master from now on too, if you don't want to die..."

"...Master!"

After hearing this, the White Tiger's adorable head first shrank subconsciously, and then she immediately shouted at Yuzuru. This scene made Yuzuru laugh a little. He really didn't expect to subdue such an obedient Yokai so easily, and it seemed that her intelligence was a bit worrying. He really didn't know if it was the right choice to bring her under his command...

"Yes."

Yuzuru met the White Tiger's watery tiger eyes, he lightly 'hmmed', which was regarded as a response to the White Tiger.

Then, Yuzuru directly opened a black and red Space-Time Transfer gate behind him, and then walked into it without saying hello. The Chimimōryō also immediately followed in a puff of smoke. The Phoenix didn't say much, just glanced at the White Tiger faintly, and then followed closely behind.

The White Tiger shook her cute head, her watery tiger eyes full of curiosity. The original fear and terror had faded a lot because of the sudden appearance of this black and red Space-Time Transfer gate...

Then, in the next moment, she leaped in without hesitation and directly entered the Space-Time Transfer gate
