Father and Son

"Aww--"

Bai Qiuran could finish reprimanding her son, the roar of a wild beast suddenly rang out behind her again.

The father and son turned around and saw several huge, bloated figures standing upright, panting heavily as they ran towards them.

"Father."

Bai Moxue pale.

"It's Sow Yaoguai from the mountain!"

"Get out of here!"

Bai Qiuran his sleeve, and a strong wind suddenly arose, sweeping all the Sow Yaoguai away.

These Sow Yaoguai were sent flying backwards, landing on the ground several miles away, where they shattered into countless pieces. Originally, Bai Qiuran hadn't intended to kill these Female Yaoguai who had been seduced by her son, but these Sow Yaoguai all carried a bloody stench, clearly indicating that they had taken lives and had human flesh inside their bellies.

Sensing this, he no longer held back, and he even left one alive, using a hand Imprint Technique to suppress it in place.

Bang!

The mark formed from condensed light fell from the sky and pressed down on the remaining Sow Yaoguai. The weight of the Imprint Technique instantly pressed the Boar Demon into the ground, even creating a small crater.

"Huffing and puffing"

However, even with several tons of weight pressing down on the ground, the Sow Yaoguai still waved her legs unwillingly, looking up in Bai Moxue's direction, trying to struggle to crawl towards him.

"... It seems I'll have to teach you how to manipulate this power of yours."

Seeing this, Bai Qiuran was also shocked by her son's alluring abilities.

This Sow Yaoguai has not yet fully transformed into Shapeshift. Its hands and feet have become like those of a human, but its torso, body, and head still resemble Wild Boar. Clearly, its cultivation has not yet reached the Golden Core Stage, and it has not fully formed its core Shapeshift.

Bai Qiuran estimated that it was also Virtual Core Stage of the "Void" generation, two realms higher than his own Virtual Foundation Stage.

However, even though this Sow Yaoguai was pressed to the ground by Bai Qiuran's Imprint Technique, it was still able to move, clearly demonstrating a power beyond its level. Its strong body was covered with thick bristles, and its pig head with scarlet eyes kept rooting around on the ground, with saliva dripping from the corners of its mouth, which was a horrifying sight.

"I never imagined that I would worry about my son's safety when he's out and about more than my daughter..."

Bai Qiuran looked up at the sky and sighed with great melancholy.

He patted Bai Moxue's head, then said seriously, "In this world, even Boy aren't safe. Moxue, from now on, I'll teach you how to defend yourself. Right now, there's a Sow Yaoguai in front of you who's after your looks. It's got blood on its hands, so killing it won't hurt. Besides, its cultivation level is only at the Virtual Core Stage, and the strength it can unleash right now is only at the early Golden Core Stage, far weaker than you are now. Go and kill it."

"I want to... kill it?"

Bai Moxue glanced at the Boar Demon and hesitated.

He was born from Su Xiangxue's Demon Body and Bai Qiuran's, and his demon blood was even purer than human blood. Therefore, killing demons was not much different from killing people for him.

During Bai Qiuran's absence, Su Xiangxue protected Bai Moxue very well, but this made him somewhat weak. Bai Xuxiang was already able to use her divine power to seal demons and monsters into pieces of paper when she was a few years old, but Bai Moxue had never fought with anyone.

"That's right, you have to kill it. It's your first step in protecting yourself, it's self-defense."

Bai Qiuran nodded. His current goal was to completely correct the timidity in his son's personality.

"Look at that Sow Yaoguai. If you fall into its hands, you'll definitely die. I don't want you to regret it later when something bad happens, saying things like, 'If only I had known, Boy would be killed too.'"

Bai Moxue didn't hear what her father said in the last two words. Perhaps for the sake of his child, Bai Qiuran deliberately chose to mute the sound. To Bai Moxue, it was just two "beep-beep" sounds.

But his instincts told him that it wasn't a good thing.

"Okay, I'm going to let it go now."

Bai Qiuran didn't give her son a chance to think or hesitate, casually saying, "Kill it, and obey."

"Wait, Dad!"

Bai Moxue took a step toward Bai Qiuran, but a faint barrier appeared in front of him. The little boy bumped his forehead into the barrier and fell on his bottom.

He rubbed his backside and got up, only to find that the area within a mile around him was sealed off by his father's Barrier. He didn't have his sister Bai Xuxiang's Spatial Ability, and his cultivation level hadn't reached the standard for using Spatial Arts and Divine Ability. Therefore, he could only stare helplessly at his father's simple Barrier.

"Hehe, stop looking this way at Dad."

Bai Qiuran smiled and pointed behind him.

"That Sow Yaoguai is coming out, aren't you going to concentrate on fighting it?"

Bai Moxue was startled upon hearing this. He turned around and saw that, sure enough, the Imprint Technique that had been suppressing the Sow Yaoguai had disappeared, and the Yaoguai had gotten up covered in dust, drooling as it pounced on him.

"Wow!"

Bai Moxue Consciousness crouched down, dodging the Boar Demon's grab. Actually, he wouldn't have been a problem if the Boar Demon had grabbed him; after all, Bai Moxue was Half-Dragon, and even if he was just Young Dragon, he should be stronger than Wild Boar. However, looking at the drool at the corner of the Sow Yaoguai's mouth and its thick, black tongue, Bai Moxue didn't want to be grabbed by it no matter what.

Missing its target, the Boar Demon crashed into Bai Qiuran's Barrier with a loud thud, causing the Barrier to shake. However, this seemingly fragile Barrier was actually incredibly sturdy, and even True Immortal could not break it. Moreover, the Sow Yaoguai's attention was not on the Barrier. Because of Bai Moxue's charm, the Boar Demon's mind was now only occupied with the thought of taking her back to the cave and cherishing her.

Perhaps it was because she was naturally less resistant to such bizarre things, but even though the opponent was Sow Yaoguai whose cultivation level was much lower than hers, Bai Moxue still dared not fight back. She could only be chased by the Sow Yaoguai and run away with her head in her hands within the Barrier, which made Bai Qiuran frown frequently.

"What's wrong? Fight back, Moxue!"

Bai Qiuran shouted, "You could easily pierce through a whole row of these Yao Mo with one punch! If you're this cowardly, don't ever say you're my Bai Qiuran, or you'll disgrace your old man!"

Because of his health condition, Bai Moxue had always been raised and cared for as a girl by his mothers. Now, after being scolded by Bai Qiuran, he immediately looked miserable and said, "Father, I dare not touch it—"

"There are many ways to kill it without touching it."

Bai Qiuran said firmly, "Sword Qi, magic, Palm Force, Fist Force, Leg Force, Formation, even your innate Superpower to Wind and Thunder Manipulation —what can't be dealt with without touching it? Moxue, this is just a low-level Boar Demon. Use your brain, face yourself, you're a Boy, you must muster the courage to overcome it!"
