Awoo!
The snow wolf howled once as if indicating to Feng Ruqing that it knew what to do.
âShut up!â Feng Ruqing scanned the place. âIâll definitely stop feeding you the Divine-Spirit Fruit for three days if your roar scares away the other spirit beasts.â
The snow wolf quickly kept its mouth shut. âThereâs nothing more important than the Divine-Spirit Fruit.â
In fact, a spirit beast came down from the sky just as the two spirit beasts hid their presence.
This time around, it was an eagle. It was a Tier-2 spirit beast like the leopard. Its sharp claws were like long swords, and they came at Feng Ruqing swiftly.
The snow wolf and the leopard jumped out when the eagle was near Feng Ruqing. They jumped forward and bit the eagleâs claws.
âIt hurts! It hurts!â
The eagle almost burst into tears. It swung its claws vigorously to escape from the leopard and the snow wolf but in vain. It then circled around in the sky anxiously.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWho can explain to it why there were a leopard and a snow wolf when it just wanted a human as a snack?â
Feng Ruqing held out her hand to signal to the snow wolf and the leopard. The two spirit beasts understood and held on tightly to the eagle. The eagle was held still.
The eagle cried at last. It looked at the young girl who was walking toward it.
The smile on the girlâs face made the eagle shook with fear.
However, the girl stopped in front of the eagle, smiled and asked, âDo you want a job?â

The sunset came, and the afterglow of the sunlight gave a soft glow to the sky.
A young girl was sitting outside the Forest of Spirit Beasts. There were a lot of spirit beasts standing behind her.
The snow wolf, a leopard, an eagle, a red fox, a griffin, and a purple sable.
At that very moment, the ground shook vigorously. The young girl raised her eyes and saw an incoming bear. The bear was gigantic and was running toward the girl. The bearâs legs shook heavilyâit might be because of its power and strength.
âA Tier-3 Earth Bear?â
Feng Ruqingâs eyes narrowed. âThereâs even a Tier-3 spirit beast here? Itâs really so easy to gain what I want.â
âThis Tier-3 earth bear must be the king of the spirit beasts in the outer region of the Forest of Spirit Beasts.â
âIndeed, this is only the outer area. If we go into the middle area of the forest, this Earth Bear is not as worthy as it is here.â
The snow wolf and the leopard quickly rushed forward without waiting for Feng Ruqingâs order.
Feng Ruqing did not know what they told the Earth Bear because she did not know their language. But, she could guess its content easily.
âDo you... want a job?â
After a short while, the strong and powerful earth bear restrained itself. It followed the snow wolf and came toward Feng Ruqing obediently.
âSure enough, I just need to come to the Forest of Spirit Beasts on my own if I want the spirit beasts to work for me. That way, I can save a lot of money.â
Feng Ruqing was ecstatic. A Tier-3 spirit beast was so valuable that it could even act as an exceptional and precious treasure in the spirit beast court.
The snow wolf nudged Feng Ruqingâs leg with its head as if telling her not to forget about its value.
âLittle Wolfie, Iâll not punish you anymore given that youâve contributed a lot today.â Feng Ruqing smiled and patted the snow wolf on its head.
The snow wolf was stunned. What about its reward?
âBut, if you sign a contract with me...â Feng Ruqingâs eyes narrowed. âIâll feed you more Divine-Spirit Fruits every day.â
The snow wolf was so excited that it roared loudly.
âContract? Letâs sign the contract now! Quickly!â
Feng Ruqingâs smile deepened when she saw how happy the snow wolf was. âLetâs go now. Iâll give you some tasks to do after we go back.â
