Lu Xian wasn't angered by the two beasts looking down on him.
After all, to them, a Soul Sage hunting a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger comparable to a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was simply unthinkable.
But Lu Xian wasn't in a hurry. He sat cross-legged and began laying out the situation, explaining the pros and cons in detail.
"Let's set aside whether I can kill that Dark Demon Evil God Tiger for now. First, we should sort things out properly."
"Judging from your reactions just now, you and Little Rabbit were very close, weren't you?"
Da Ming and Er Ming exchanged a glance. There was no point denying it.
Turning back to Lu Xian, the two beasts nodded their massive heads in unison, acknowledging his words.
"Then Little Rabbit is in extreme danger right now, and you can't go rescue her yourselves, right?"
"What exactly are you trying to say?"
With Little Rabbit's safety weighing on his mind, Da Ming clearly had no patience for small talk and asked Lu Xian directly what he was getting at.
"Obviously, you help me grow stronger, and I find a chance to bring Little Rabbit back for you. How does that deal sound?"
At those words, Da Ming and Er Ming finally understood where Lu Xian got the confidence to kill the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. They hadn't expected it to come from the two brothers themselves.
Da Ming snorted, his expression darkening.
"Why should I trust a human like you? How do we know you won't covet Little Rabbit's Soul Ring and Soul Bone?"
"Hey, that's a good question. But I don't need you to trust me!"
Lu Xian spread his hands, as if they had no need to trust each other at all.
Da Ming and Er Ming both froze.
