Comparison

The story of Tiger Saint and Tiger Feather takes place in another world.

The pursuit of high returns with low investment is the goal of all cultivators. The better the bloodline, the higher the cultivation potential and the less resources are needed for cultivation.

In this climate, the outcome of bloodline awakening has become the answer that determines the fate of almost every cultivator.

Tiger Feather's bloodline is extremely strong, considered top-tier, but among those of the same age, Tiger Saint's bloodline is a notch stronger.

Having two prodigies in one family is a good thing, but as their strength continues to increase, conflicts arise when the Lineage's cultivation resources are insufficient to support both of them.

Tiger Feather was abandoned by his Lineage. Even though he considered himself to be more intelligent and more resolute, all his advantages could not overcome the consequences of bloodline.

"Tiger Saint rose step by step with the support of his Lineage, eventually becoming the number one in the righteous path. Tiger Feather, on the other hand, fought and plundered outside, becoming a giant in the demonic path. Their complete split occurred during the struggle for the origin of the world. Tiger Saint succeeded, while Tiger Feather failed and was chained up with chains piercing his collarbone. What happened afterward is unknown to us juniors, and we had no idea that we would encounter him here!"

Hu Hao felt a pang of sympathy.

He was another version of Hu Yu, whose bloodline was also inferior to Hu Yu's, but he received the best possible treatment, and even when carrying out missions, everyone came together.

To be honest, as long as he and Hu Yu weren't killed, Hu Hao felt that cooperating was fine and there was no need to resist like Elder Baqi.

He never imagined that the Demon Lord would remove Hu Yu's cloud wings, which perhaps confirmed Elder Baqi's stubbornness back then.

In the Demon Lord's eyes, they were not blood relatives, but merely valuable objects.

The Demon Lord will not use them as offspring, but will only exploit their limited value, and will not care about their lives at all.

"Does Hu Yu have a kind heart?" Zhang Xuezhou asked.

"Love?"

"What I mean is, will Tiger Feather patiently teach a human with little intelligence and then train him into a strong person?"

"Absolutely impossible!"

Zhang Xuezhou repeatedly questioned Hu Hao.

He was genuinely worried that Tiger Feather and 'Feather' were the same being. In Huang's understanding, Feather was a perfect being and the strongest being in the history of the Thousand Islands Alliance.

However, in Hu Hao's introduction and in Zhang Xuezhou's understanding, the Demon Lord Hu Yu was a different figure.

The other party cannot be defined simply as good or bad. In Hu Yu's view, the other party does not recognize the status of other living beings.

Just as humans wouldn't care about a colony of ants and would simply wipe it out, Tiger Feather wouldn't care about his own kind, let alone humans.

This is a sense of superiority among living beings, not only Hu Yu, but also other fire meteor beings like Hu Hao.

If Zhang Xuezhou hadn't been misidentified by Hu Yu, Hu Hao wouldn't have cooperated so readily.

Zhang Xuezhou didn't dwell on the perceptions of Hu Yu and other Fire Meteor cultivators, nor did he intend to forcibly reverse them. For the first time, he couldn't help but think about humanity's place in the vast world and its situation in higher-dimensional worlds.

Zhang Xuezhou, confined to the human world, finds it difficult to imagine the civilized society of another intelligent race, let alone multiple intelligent races.

He could hardly imagine how these races formed a social civilization, and how they rose above it to leap into a higher dimension.

Zhang Xuezhou couldn't imagine, nor could he possibly enter, another civilization. But in this world, humans were the current civilized group, and he obviously couldn't accept the Tiger Clan's civilization, and would inevitably drive away this alien race.

"We've arrived in Western Capital. You bear the Demon Lord's blood mark, so don't cause trouble here. You need to cooperate with everything!"

From a transport plane at Puerto Airport to a custom-built Airbus in Brampeda, Zhang Xuezhou returned to Western Capital City smoothly two days later.

"This flying creature is amazing! I never imagined there were continents and countries around here!"

Hu Hao squeezed out from the crowded cabin door, licked his lips, and revealed an uncontrollable bestiality in his eyes, completely ignoring Zhang Xuezhou's words.

Only after Zhang Xuezhou flicked his finger did the predatory instincts of those around him subside.

"We have both raw and cooked food here, as much as you want. The only requirement is that you mustn't eat people," Zhang Xuezhou warned. "I guarantee that if you cause any trouble here, I'll chop off your head with the Wind and Thunder Blade!"

"I definitely won't eat people!"

No warnings were as effective as the Wind and Thunder Blade.

Even if it falls into the hands of the Demon Lord, the threat of the Wind and Thunder Blade will make Hu Hao fight to the death and rebel against the Demon Lord.

The Wind and Thunder Blade was the glory that Tiger Saint had long held in the Lineage. To be killed by the Wind and Thunder Blade was an indelible disgrace, a consequence that was even more terrifying to Tiger Hao than death itself.

Zhang Xuezhou did not live in the Tiger Saint Realm, so he had little personal experience in this regard, but Hu Hao dared not cross the line.

He was hesitant and obediently followed Zhang Xuezhou as they took off into the air.

"Zhouzi, what should we do with this guy?"

Li Yingbo's voice came through the earpiece, accompanied by a wave from Li Yingbo in a nearby aircraft.

"Let my sister borrow him for a while to see if she can use the Wind and Thunder Blade. You two should also spend some time with him to assess his character and try to keep him under control, especially making sure the Cloud Wings on his back aren't taken away!"

From a safety perspective, the safest course of action for Zhang Xuezhou is to destroy the two Cloud Wings and kill Hu Hao, which would completely eliminate any way for the Demon Lord to obtain the Cloud Wings.

However, these are three real-life examples and the best subjects for research, as they involve whether current technological research can produce treasures similar to Cloudwing.

Zhang Xuezhou has always believed that opportunities inevitably arise from danger, and he hopes to seize this opportunity.

Imported items from other worlds may encounter various problems adapting to different environments, but the original source's transformation of the world may produce different results. The existence of a large amount of Void Gold in the Spider God's Cave provides an opportunity for integration.

If humans could be given the ability to fly solo, the pattern of their Gene Sequence would likely undergo a qualitative change, and many people would have the opportunity to keep up with Zhang Xuezhou's pace, instead of him acting as a lone hero.

"Hongjun... perhaps his situation is even worse than mine!"

Zhang Xuezhou had to be extremely careful even when he met the Demon Lord, and the conflict between Hongjun and Houtu was perhaps not much different.

If Hongjun were capable, the other party would have targeted Houtu long ago, just as they had done by defeating the Emperor at Kunlun, instead of engaging in endless secret battles.

Zhang Xuezhou's experience might be another reflection of Hongjun's, and he might even be luckier, while Hongjun lacks the same conditions and partners. The Three Pure Ones Heavenly Venerables of the Three Realms would scold him every time they met, and they were powerless to find a suitable partner.

Hongjun's situation is not surprising. Anything rushed will inevitably leave behind various troubles. If the constraints of limited development are added, the oversights caused by each other will be magnified infinitely until they become uncontrollable.

Through Hu Hao's description, Zhang Xuezhou gained some understanding of the Demon Lord Hu Yu, but he realized that he actually knew more about Hongjun.

If they can improve their understanding of each other, dealing with Hongjun in the future will be much easier for him. He might even be able to persuade Hongjun not to go too far in harming him and might even leave him a way out.
