Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Jay
Meanwhile, another young man of medium stature sat opposite the skinny young man.
From the beginning until the end, the two of regarded Duan Ling Tian as nothing.
"Squeak squeak~" Meanwhile, the little gold mouse furiously looked at the two young men as she bared her claws and brandished her fangs.
But, the fluffy and chubby little gold mouse acting fierce had no deterrent force whatsoever.
"What? Little mouse, you want to play with us?" The skinny young man looked at the little gold mouse as he asked while laughing.
He only thought that this was an ordinary pet mouse…
"Squeak squeak~" But, the words of the skinny young man was like lighting a fuse to a bomb, and it completely enraged the little gold mouse.
The little gold mouse swung her tails out, precisely striking the tea cup on the table.
Slap!
Instantly, the tea cup flew out, flashing straight for the skinny young man.
Bang!
The skinny young man wasn’t prepared in the slightest and was hit straight on the face, and the remaining tea within the tea cup splashed all over his face.
"Hahahaha…" The customers seated at the surrounding tables who saw this scene couldn’t refrain from bursting into laughter.
"Alright, Little Gold, let’s go to a different restaurant." Seeing that the restaurant was packed, Duan Ling Tian looked at the little gold mouse and called out.
He’d only just arrived here and didn’t want to stir up trouble.
Although he’d seen through the cultivations of these two young men and wasn’t afraid of them, the little gold mouse’s actions earlier had undoubtedly helped him vent his anger, causing the discontent in his heart to be completely gone.
"Squeak squeak~" Unexpectedly, the little gold mouse was unwilling to leave, she stood on the table in a human-like manner with her front paws crossed before her and looked at the skinny young man provocatively.
"Little mouse, you’re courting death!" The skinny young man was enraged, his hand was enveloped with roaring Origin Energy, seeming to transform into a fan that slapped downwards towards the little gold mouse.
Above the skinny young man, 400 ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form.
Third level of the Nascent Soul Stage!
"Squeak!!" The little gold mouse lightly cried out, then her tail flashed out like a bolt of lightning to intercept the palm strike the young man slapped down.
Slap!
The instant the little gold mouse’s tail touched the skinny young man, he let out a shrill cry and then a wave of sounds of bones breaking sounded out at almost the exact same instant…
"You’re courting death!" The skinny young man’s companion, the other young man of medium stature, clearly never imagined that the little gold mouse had this sort of strength, and his face went grim as he attacked as well.
This young man’s strength was stronger than the skinny young man, and he was a fifth level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist.
Unfortunately, this little strength was nothing before the little gold mouse, and he was directly swept flying by the little gold mouse’s tail before crashing onto the ground.
"What a terrifying fierce beast!"
"I’m completely unable to see clearly exactly how many ancient mammoth silhouettes flashed in the sky atop this little gold mouse…"
"A third level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist and a fifth level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist weren’t a match for it. Moreover, it seemed to have attacked so casually and smoothly, its strength is at least at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage or above!"
…
The crowd of people in the restaurant sighed emotionally, and they all looked at the little gold mouse with gazes that contained slight burning desire, and many people looked at Duan Ling Tian with envious expressions.
The two young men that were taught a lesson by the little gold mouse felt they’d lost face and left the restaurant in dejection.
"You little fellow." Duan Ling Tian shook his head and laughed, then sat down.
At a nearby table, the eyes of a young woman that was around a little over 20 lit up. "Such a cute and formidable little gold mouse…"
"What? Little Lu, you like that mouse?" The sword shaped brows of the young man in embroidered clothes that sat opposite the young woman raised up and his eyes emitted a trace of affection.
The young girl spat out her tongue. "I like it, but unfortunately… It has an owner already."
"Isn’t that simple?" The young man in embroidered clothes stood up and directly walked towards Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian had only just sat down and ordered some food from the attendant when he noticed the young man in embroidered clothes walking over.
Before long, the young man in embroidered clothes glanced at Duan Ling Tian indifferently and asked. "Hey! How much for that mouse of yours?"
His tone contained an unquestionable intent of command.
"Squeak squeak~" The little gold mouse glared at the young man in embroidered clothes, then bared her fangs and brandished her claws at him, and she was extremely infuriated.
As for Duan Ling Tian, he completely couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to the young man in embroidered clothing, he extended his hand to comb the hair of the little gold mouse and said with a light smile, "Little Gold, you should change your irritable temper… You should be more ladylike, do you understand?"
The little gold mouse couldn’t help but turn to look at Duan Ling Tian when she heard this, and asked via voice transmission. "Ladylike? What’s ladylike?"
"Ladylike is to possess a meek disposition and not lose your temper easily." For the sake of not allowing other people to discern that he was able to communicate with the little gold mouse, Duan Ling Tian intentionally replied via voice transmission.
"It’s a female?" Right at this moment, another young girl that was a little over 20 appeared by the side of the young man in embroidered clothes.
The young woman had a delicate and pretty appearance, and although she couldn’t be considered to be a first-rate beauty, she possessed good looks and aroused affection of others towards her.
Presently, the young woman looked at the little gold mouse with a gaze filled with burning desire and yearning.
"Kid, I’m Chang Hui from the Phoenix Nest City’s Chang Clan, name a price and sell this mouse to me." The young man in embroidered clothes looked at Duan Ling Tian as he spoke once again, and his gaze was condescending as he looked down at Duan Ling Tian.
"I’m not selling!" Duan Ling Tian didn’t even raise his head as he continued to comb the fur of the little gold mouse, and the little gold mouse’s fur felt soft and it was comfortable when touching it.
Furthermore, the little gold mouse lay on the table in enjoyment, but its jade green eyes stared fixedly at the young man in embroidered clothes, and it seemed to contain slight rage mixed within.
She was a descendant of a Saint Beast, a Jade-eyed Heavenly Mouse!
This human actually called her a mouse?
If it wasn’t for her recalled Duan Ling Tian asking her to be ladylike earlier, she would have swept her tails over long ago and directly swept this detestable human flying.
"What? You’re not giving I, Chang Hui, face, and not giving my Chang Clan face?" Chang Hui’s voice suddenly went low and heavy yet loud, and it spread throughout the entire restaurant.
Instantly, the crowd of customers within the restaurant were all alarmed.
"He’s the Chang Clan’s Second Young Master, Chang Hui?"
"I heard long ago that the Second Young Master of the Chang Clan is infatuated with the martial arts, and possesses a cultivation at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage at a mere age of 29… I never expected to be able to see him in this restaurant."
"This young woman by his side, could it be that she’s that fiancée of his, the Qian Clan’s Third Young Miss, Qian Lu?"
"She should be."
…
When he saw the restaurant going into an uproar from a single sentence of Chang Hui’s, Duan Ling Tian raised his head and glanced calmly at Chang Hui. "Do you feel that making your identity conspicuous is able to satisfy your vanity and make me retreat after learning of your identity, and sell her to you? I’ll say it one last time, I’m not selling her!" Duan Ling Tian’s tone was resolute and firm.
"You!!" As Chang Hui got angry from embarrassment, the Origin Energy on his body surged and the energy of heaven and earth roiled above him to converge into 1,100 ancient mammoth silhouettes in the end.
"Eighth level Nascent Soul Stage! The Chang Clan’s Second Young Master has broken through again?"
"The natural talent of the Chang Clan’s Second Young Master is really monstrous! Besides the daughter of the City Governor, I’m afraid no one in the younger generation of our Phoenix Nest City is able to compare with him."
"A 29 year old eighth level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist… Even in the entire Darkstone Empire, such natural talent can be considered to be one of the top in the mid-range of natural talents."
"The luck of the Chang Clan is really good to possess such a genius in the Martial Dao."
…
The crowd of people within the restaurant were all shocked by the strength revealed by Chang Hui.
"What, still want to use force?" Duan Ling Tian remained unfazed as he glanced indifferently at Chang Hui.
"So what if I am!?" Chang Hui shouted out explosively, his Origin Energy roared as he raised his hand, then it transformed into a white colored serpent that coiled on his arm…
Bang!
He struck out with his fist, the sounds of air exploding continuously rose and fell as the white serpent flashed out to bite at Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian had a calm expression, as if he didn’t take Chang Hui’s punch seriously at all.
But the hand he placed on the little gold mouse had already been withdrawn.
"Squeak!!" Suddenly, a sharp cried sounded out, causing the crowd of customers in the restaurant to go pale.
Some customers with comparatively lower cultivations went ghastly pale, as if they’d suffered an extremely great blow.
It was Little Gold’s enraged cry.
At the same time, Little Gold’s tails swept out once again, and the air in the surroundings seemed to be completely sucked out as it moved to meet Chang Hui’s descending fist.
The white colored serpent that flowed out from Chang Hui’s fist was crushed by Little Gold’s tail, and not only that, Little Gold’s tail quickly descended onto Chang Hui’s fist…
Slap!
An enormous slap sounded out, and accompanying it was a shrill cry and the clear sounds of bones cracking and exploding.
Subsequently, dazzling fresh blood sprayed out from Chang Hui’s fist, transforming into numerous beautiful red roses in the air that slowly descended.
Bang!
As for Chang Hui, he was directly swept flying by the little gold mouse’s tail.
His fist had completely vanished, and only half a mangled arm remained.
Obviously, Chang Hui’s fist including half his arm was directly crushed by the little gold mouse’s tail swing.
"Demon beast!"
"It’s a demon beast!"
…
The gazes of people in the restaurant stared blankly at the 2,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes that were gradually dispersing atop the little gold mouse, and they were completely dumbstruck.
"Void Prying Stage demon beast!" Chang Hui who stopped the bleeding from his mangled arm with great difficulty had a ghastly pale face when he saw to his astonishment the 2,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes that were gradually vanishing, and his eyes revealed terror…
He’d never imagined that this mouse was actually a formidable demon beast!
"Brother Hui!" Qian Lu’s beautiful face went pale as she hurriedly went over to support Chang Hui up, and the gaze she had when she looked at the little gold mouse again was completely different.
Demon beast!
This cute little gold mouse was actually a demon beast that crippled an arm of her fiancée with only a swing of its tail.
"Little Lu, let’s go." Chang Hui took a deep breath before leaving with Qian Lu.
When he left, a sense of icy coldness and terror arose within the gaze Chang Hui shot at Duan Ling Tian…
This young man had a demon beast by his side and was obviously of extraordinary background!
After Chang Hui and Qian Lu left, the gazes of the people in the restaurant all moved away from Duan Ling Tian and the little gold mouse, as they were extremely afraid that continuing to look would cause them to suffer a calamity.
That was a demon beast!
An existence comparable to a Void Prying Stage expert.
It wasn’t something they could offend.
"Peace at long last." Duan Ling Tian’s brows raised then looked at the little gold mouse and said with a light smile, "Little Gold, you did well."
"Squeak squeak~" The jade green eyes of the little gold mouse emitted a sheen of delight when she was praised by Duan Ling Tian.
