C11 Saving People from the Tiger's Mouth

Act 11: Save people from the tiger's mouth.

There were many layers of trees outside the Creek Village, and the sound Ye Zhifa heard came from a place not far from the entrance of the village.

When he stepped into the dense forest, the sound not only became clearer, but also allowed him to hear more details.

"Other than the tiger's roar, why is there a human voice? Could it be that someone is being attacked by a tiger?"

Amidst the roar of a tiger, there were also some roars that belonged to humans. Ye Zhifa could not help but feel shocked when he heard them, and he hurriedly quickened his pace.

He ran towards the source of the sound, and only heard the roar of the tiger getting louder and louder. However, the human's voice did not disappear, and he could not help but feel amazed. He thought to himself that this person could actually withstand the tiger's attack for such a long time, truly impressive.

When he saw the white shadow moving in and out of the forest, Ye Zhifa stopped. He focused his eyes and found that the situation was different from what he had expected. It was not a tiger hunting, but someone trying to kill a tiger!

Before Ye Zhifa came, he only knew that there was a tiger playing tricks on him. At this moment, when he took a look, he realized that the beast that was moving around was actually snow white. It was a white tiger!

However, this rare white tiger was furious at this moment because it could not catch the "little mouse" in front of it.

At this moment, the one fighting the tiger was a man in black clothes. He was also agile. He was jumping high and low in the forest like a spiritual ape, and his movements were not much slower than a tiger's.

If he only relied on his speed, this man would sooner or later become the tiger's food. However, from time to time, he would throw a few silver hidden weapons at the white tiger's head. In order to avoid the hidden weapons, the white tiger... The only thing it could do was to reduce its speed, giving the black-clothed man a chance to live.

Although Ye Zhifa was just a newbie, he also knew that he should intervene at this time. He might even treat him as the person who snatched the credit. It would only add to the enmity for no reason. Thus, Ye Zhifa restrained his breathing and hid behind the tree. He quietly pulled out the long sword from his back. He waited for the time when he needed to make a move.

After the game of cat and mouse continued for a while, the man in black gradually became anxious. He was still a mortal after all. He was able to keep up with the speed of the white tiger with his inner energy. Now that his inner energy was gradually depleted, he would not be able to escape if he fought for a while longer. Thinking of this, he reached out and touched his belt. He was ready to use his trump card.

But he did not expect that the white tiger actually changed its move before him!

He saw the white tiger take a deep breath and suddenly let out a heaven-shaking tiger roar!

This roar was very different from the previous one. Ye Zhifa was not aware of it and was shocked by the roar. He felt his vision turn black and quickly used his sword to support himself before he fell to the ground.

He was quite far away and this was the case. The black-clothed man was much closer to him, so how could he escape? He fell from the tree branch and fell to the ground.

When the man in black fell, his chest was scratched by the white tiger, and blood immediately gushed out. When it landed on the ground, the white tiger directly pounced on him!

Just as the black-clothed man was about to die, a cold light suddenly shot out diagonally. It was Ye Zhifa's sword!

Ye Zhifa's long sword was used by Du Lin before he entered the Dao, although it was still an ordinary item. Its power was far beyond the hidden weapons that the black-clothed man had thrown out previously. The white tiger did not expect that there would be trouble. Without checking, its front paw was struck by the sword. A large hole was directly cut open by Ye Zhifa.

Seeing that the attack was successful, Ye Zhifa quickly changed his attack. The sword light was like a bright starlight that directly enveloped this ferocious beast. It was the killing move of the ZhHua Sword Technique, "Starshine!"

Ever since he saw Du Lin demonstrating the Starshine of Sword Intent that day, Ye Zhifa had been pondering about this move. Although he had yet to obtain the essence of this move, it already had three parts of the meaning of filling the sky with starlight.

The white tiger had never seen such a powerful sword force before. Its body was instantly pierced with countless bloody holes.

But just as Ye Zhifa was about to take it back, the white tiger actually ignored the injuries on its body and let out another loud roar, shaking Ye Zhifa until his vision turned black again.

After the darkness, Ye Zhifa could only withdraw his sword and protect himself. However, when he recovered his consciousness, he found that the white tiger had already fled into the depths of the dense forest.

Ye Zhifa wanted to chase after the white tiger, but just as he lifted his foot, he heard a weak groan from beside him. It turned out that the man in black had affected his wound while he was unconscious, and was crying out in pain.

If it was any other true disciple of the Zhehua Sword Palace, they would most likely have left the black-clothed man behind. He would first complete his true disciple mission. However, compared to the people in this world, Ye Zhifa couldn't help but feel a sense of respect towards the people. After hesitating for a while, he decided to give up on pursuing them and save them first.

Although the villagers of the Creek Village did not know why Ye Zhifa had suddenly said goodbye, they heard him say that he would be back soon. Thus, they did not leave the village entrance. They didn't expect Ye Zhifa to return not long after, and even bring back another injured man.

Most of the villagers here lived by picking herbs, and there were a few who had some understanding of yellow magic. Although the black-clothed man looked miserable, it was the easiest external injury to treat, so the villagers could naturally treat it well.

After entrusting the black-clothed man to the villagers, Ye Zhifa immediately turned around and returned to the dense forest, wanting to find its whereabouts based on the blood dripping from the white tiger.

However, this Mountain Lord was also crafty. After it was injured, it specially found a pond to wash away the blood on its body, and Ye Zhifa chased to the pond and disappeared.

In the next two days, Ye Zhifa continuously entered the dense forest, but he still found nothing.

He did not find the tiger, but he received another good news - the unconscious man in black had woken up.

When the man in black woke up, Ye Zhifa had just returned to the village to rest, so he came to see the person he had saved with his own hands.

It was only at this moment that Ye Zhifa saw the face of the man in black. This person had a dignified appearance, but he still had some childishness on his face. He was probably only sixteen or seventeen years old.

When Ye Zhifa stepped into the thatched cottage where the man was resting, the man saw that Ye Zhifa's bearing and dressing were different from the other villagers, so he had some guesses in his heart.

"I am Di Quji, a disciple of the Meteor gate. May I ask if you are the one who saved me?"

Ye Zhifa nodded his head and admitted it, then he introduced himself.

For some reason, Ye Zhifa found that when he mentioned that he was a disciple of the Zhehua Sword Palace, Di Quji's expression turned ugly for a moment, but was quickly suppressed by him.

Ye Zhifa knew that there was something different about the situation. He wanted to ask about it, but he didn't expect Di Quji to be even more anxious than him.

"I can't repay you for saving my life. I won't thank you anymore. Brother Ye, I just want to ask, how many days have I been unconscious for?"

"I saved you the day before. You were unconscious for two days. It's the third day now."

" The third day... Not good, today is the night of the full moon? "

Tonight was indeed the night of the full moon. In Ye Zhifa's previous life, today would be the Lantern Festival. However, there was no such festival in this world. Ye Zhifa did not know why Di Quji cared so much about this day.

"Today is indeed the night of the full moon. Is there anything wrong with it?"

"That white tiger is already close to becoming a demon. As long as it survives the night of the full moon, it will become a demon! After tonight, it will transcend mortality and become a demon!"
