He suddenly thought of the Black Snake and its ability to provide its own blood essence. Could it possibly deliver some to Qin Wan'er as well?
As this thought crossed his mind, he felt a jolt of energy. However, he realized that he had no blood essence left; he had absorbed it all himself. He would have to deal with the Tiger King first.
"Little Fox, make sure to protect her," Qin Feng instructed the little fox.
The little fox nodded eagerly. "Young Master, I understand."
After a moment's hesitation, she asked, "Young Master, are you really going to take down the Tiger King?"
"Hmm? You know about that?" Qin Feng asked in surprise.
The little fox nodded. "When we passed by Dafeng Mountain, I sensed a killing intent from you directed at it."
Qin Feng was taken aback by how perceptive the little fox was; he had only released a hint of killing intent at that moment, yet she had felt it.
"Just focus on protecting my sister. You don't need to worry about anything else," Lin Yuan said with a smile.
The little fox's eyes showed concern. "You need to be careful. The Tiger King comes from the Ten Thousand Great Mountains; he might have some backing."
A chill ran through Qin Feng's heart as he wondered aloud, "How does a wandering little fox like you know this?"
With a hint of pride, the little fox replied, "It's because I’ve been running around so much that I need to gather information. How else would I survive?"
Qin Feng chuckled softly, surprised at how useful this little fox turned out to be. "It's fine; I understand."
With that, he turned and left.
Watching Qin Feng's retreating figure, the little fox's worry did not dissipate. The Ten Thousand Great Mountains were no ordinary place.
As Qin Feng exited the room, his expression grew serious. The Ten Thousand Great Mountains—wasn't that the territory of the demon clan?
He had heard Li Liang mention this place before, describing it as filled with great horrors, so much so that even Zhen Mo Wang dared not venture deep into it.
Yet he felt no fear; the Tiger King had to be eliminated. He had already made enemies by killing his subordinates.
As long as he grew strong enough quickly, he would not fear any adversary.
"Brother Qin, come down quickly!" Ning Caichen's voice called from downstairs.
As Qin Feng descended the stairs, he glanced over and saw Ning Caichen accompanied by three other individuals, all dressed like scholars.
The three men looked at Qin Feng in surprise, their expressions revealing their astonishment at such a handsome young man.
Ning Caichen beamed as he approached Qin Feng. "Brother Qin! I just happened to run into these three classmates. They are all preparing for the Provincial Examination; we will be together from now on."
Qin Feng smiled and nodded at the three of them, and then they began to introduce themselves. The three were named Zhou Ziling, Zhu Fang, and Huang Xu.
At first glance, Qin Feng noticed the white aura above their heads, just like his own had been before. He shook his head, estimating that these three were likely to fail the examination.
Just then, he furrowed his brows; something was off. Their Destiny Energy was rapidly turning black.
Qin Feng was taken aback and looked over at Ning Caichen, noticing that the red aura of Destiny Energy was also slowly darkening.
What’s going on? Qin Feng frowned.
At this moment, the group had already taken their seats, and after a few cups of wine, they began to feel more at ease with one another.
Zhou Ziling suddenly whispered, "Do you all know? A big shot has come for this Provincial Examination!"
"Oh? Who is it?" Ning Caichen asked curiously.
"I heard it's the Zhenbei Wang Heir," Zhu Fang said with a mysterious smile.
"The Seizi? Why would someone of that status come to participate in the Provincial Examination?" Ning Caichen exclaimed in surprise.
