Hearing the child in his territory calling out "Master," this Rank 5 Tiger Demon couldn't help but laugh inwardly. With his strength in the late stage of Rank 5, he considered himself top-notch within the Profound Heaven Domain. Apart from a few forces with Void Opening Realm powerhouses, who could he possibly fear?
Even if someone stronger than him in the nearby vicinity, like the master of the God Tian Sect, came, although he might not necessarily win in a fight, he wouldn't necessarily be afraid either.
Moreover, these two brats, how could they be so coincidental? Were they disciples of the master of the God Tian Sect?
Therefore, when he heard Ye Hao shout "Master," the Tiger Demon's inner thoughts were filled with disdain.
"It seems I haven't come out for a long time, and these little dogs and cats all think they can enter my territory casually!"
Immediately, the Tiger Demon decided to give a lesson to this master who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth and dared to intrude here.
But...
Suddenly, a majestic cold breath came from all around, instantly covering the entire void. The Rank 5 Tiger Demon was directly shocked, his fur standing on end.
"How is this possible! This aura!"
The Tiger Demon was shocked. He knew that he had the strength of the late stage of Rank 5. The only thing that could make him feel fearful was a Void Opening Realm powerhouse!
Was he really so unlucky today?
How many Void Opening Realm powerhouses were there in the entire Profound Heaven Domain? Probably less than a handful, and more than enough to count with one hand! Could it be that he could randomly attack a junior today and encounter a Void Opening Realm powerhouse?
Just now, he was still thinking, how could the master of these two juniors have strength higher than his? And in the blink of an eye, this actually happened? The Tiger Demon somewhat regretted his loose tongue!
If it were true, he swore that if he encountered such juniors going out for experience in the future, he would never act rashly again... Wouldn't it be better to stay honestly in his own lair?
But what were a few demon beasts in his territory?
Just two juniors in the Blood Refining Realm. How could he, a Rank 5 powerhouse, compare with them?!
At the moment this chilling breath appeared, it was a true reflection of the Tiger Demon's inner thoughts. In that instant, countless thoughts had already crossed his mind.
"Elder, don't be angry! Just now, I was just joking with your two high disciples!"
At the moment the breath appeared, after thinking about countless countermeasures, the Tiger Demon hurriedly blurted out.
"Tsk..."
Upon hearing these words from Ye Hao, the Tiger Demon couldn't help but snort. Wasn't he arrogant when he attacked them just now? Didn't he look down on their master? Wasn't he still arrogant? Didn't he dare to invade his territory? Wasn't he planning to teach their master a lesson?
And now, he directly surrendered?
Hearing Ye Hao's somewhat mocking sound, the Tiger Demon gnashed his teeth inwardly. He, a Rank 5 demon beast from the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, when had he ever been mocked by such juniors?
However... feeling the aura beside him, he decided to endure it!
While saying those words, the Tiger Demon had already begun to prepare to escape. His feet slid away, slipping far away. He also looked back at the powerful existence in fear.
His gaze was timid, and he found a young man in white clothes appearing in the void behind him, with a smile that seemed like a smile but not quite.
"Such a young Void Opening Realm powerhouse?!"
The Tiger Demon quickly apologized and fled. At the same time, he cautiously probed with his divine sense, only to find that Lin Xuan in front of him had only the strength of the mid-stage of the Marquis Realm!
Who was he? He was a Tiger Demon general at the late stage of the Marquis Realm! In the mid-stage, compared to him, he was nothing! He knew that the higher the realm, the smaller the gap between one small level. Just like the late stage of the Marquis Realm, even if it faced several mid-stage Marquis Realm opponents, it would be enough.
"Crunch!!"
The Tiger Demon suddenly stopped his footsteps. His face, which had been obedient just now, instantly changed. "So, this person was just bluffing!"
Such a change in the Tiger Demon's heart was real. In an instant, a punch with surging spiritual power hit his face, almost knocking his soul out directly.
"How dare you sneak attack..."
Feeling Lin Xuan suddenly attacking, the Tiger Demon, filled with anger and shame, was about to counterattack.
"Crunch!"
"Crunch!"
"Crunch!"
After several punches, the Tiger Demon's heart underwent a subtle change.
He found that under the fists and kicks of this mid-stage Marquis Realm, he didn't even have a chance to counterattack!!
What the hell!
You tell me, he's in the mid-stage of the Marquis Realm?!
The Tiger Demon suddenly felt a deep sense of deception.
Each punch brought him to tears. As a Tiger Demon General, he had never experienced such abuse before!
Under Lin Xuan's hands, he felt a suppression almost from the spiritual level, leaving him with no chance for even the slightest counterattack.
The Tiger Demon felt helpless and wanted to cry. It was only now that he realized the initial terrifying aura might be real!
The young man in front of him might truly be a powerhouse in the Human King Realm! There was no other explanation.
What angered him was, did powerful beings in the Human King Realm enjoy deceiving others? Did they intentionally suppress their own realm, making him think the opponent only had the strength of the mid-stage of the Marquis Realm, just to toy with him, the Tiger Demon General?
"Elder, please stop! I truly only played a joke with your disciples just now and meant no harm..."
While being beaten, the Tiger Demon hastily spoke again.
Neither Lin Xuan nor Ye Hao and Jian Chen looked kindly upon his words. The Tiger Demon's change of attitude was truly unbelievable.
"So, was attacking me just a joke too?" Lin Xuan coldly snorted.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The Tiger Demon quickly answered, but then realized something was wrong. Playing a joke with a powerhouse in the Human King Realm? Wasn't that seeking death?
Crunch!
Another punch landed on his face, causing him to scream in misery.
At this moment, the Tiger Demon swore that if he survived, he would let these human juniors pass without trouble in the future. Even if they bullied someone of the same realm, he wouldn't interfere. Because you never knew what kind of existence was behind them...
"Elder, I was wrong! Please spare my life! I'm willing to do anything for you!"
If this punch landed, his tiger life would probably be over. So, the Tiger Demon quickly begged Lin Xuan for mercy.
Lin Xuan unexpectedly stopped hitting him and said lightly, "If you can really do anything, sparing you this time is not impossible!"
However, in Lin Xuan's heart, he felt a bit helpless towards this Tiger Demon. He had encountered Rank 5 experts before, but never such a Rank 5, and certainly not a Tiger Demon. This Tiger Demon was really excessively afraid of death.
"Of course! Elder, please speak!"
The Tiger Demon, seeing hope, eagerly said.
...
Finally catching his breath, the Tiger Demon, covered in scars, was relieved. Luckily, he begged for mercy quickly, avoiding a disaster.
If not, he would have been truly in danger!
Standing quietly on the side, the Tiger Demon waited for Lin Xuan's orders, looking very docile. Ye Hao and Jian Chen watched him with a mix of smiles and sneers. The Tiger Demon felt a deep sense of shame, but he couldn't do anything to these junior fellows with such a good master!
"I heard that when the White-Browed Tigers of your clan reach the Marquis Realm, they can condense a substance called Tiger Frost. Is this true?"
Lin Xuan asked the Tiger Demon.
"Elder, where did you hear that? It's just a rumor... Well, yes, elder, it's true. However, there's not much of it. I've already condensed some, but I've used most of it myself..."
The Tiger Demon knew what Lin Xuan meant. He originally intended to be vague, but seeing Lin Xuan raise his hand slightly, he quickly changed his words.
But then he realized something was wrong. Playing jokes with a powerhouse in the Human King Realm? Wasn't that seeking death?
Crunch!
Another punch landed on his face, causing him to scream in misery.

"I heard that when the White-Browed Tigers of your clan reach the Marquis Realm, they can condense a substance called Tiger Frost. Is this true?"
Lin Xuan asked the Tiger Demon.
"Elder, where did you hear that? It's just a rumor... Well, yes, elder, it's true. However, there's not much of it. I've already condensed some, but I've used most of it myself..."
The Tiger Demon knew what Lin Xuan meant. He originally intended to be vague, but seeing Lin Xuan raise his hand slightly, he quickly changed his words.
"I've heard that your White-Browed Tiger clan, upon reaching the Marquis Realm, can condense a substance called Tiger Frost. Is this true?"
Lin Xuan inquired of the Tiger Demon.
"Elder, where did you hear that? It's just a rumor... Well, yes, elder, it's true. However, there's not much of it. I've already condensed some, but I've used most of it myself..."
The Tiger Demon quickly understood Lin Xuan's intention. He originally planned to be vague, but seeing Lin Xuan's hand raise slightly, he quickly changed his tune.
Through this conversation, the Tiger Demon became even more aware of one thing – the person in front of him was definitely fishing! It turned out he came for him, specifically for his Tiger Frost. The previous order for disciples to kill the beasts here was just to lure him out.
At this moment, the Tiger Demon internally exclaimed, "I've been fooled!" Despite learning human ways of thinking, he couldn't help but lament, "Humans are truly cunning!"
In the eyes of others, he looked like a big fool who walked right into a trap.
But come to think of it! His territory was within the Wanshou Mountain Range, with not many first-tier demonic beasts. Most low-tier demonic beasts were on the outer edges of the mountain range. Why would seniors bring their disciples here to train with first-tier demonic beasts? Unfortunately, he didn't think it through at the time.
"Used up?" Lin Xuan asked, then continued, "I've heard that the White-Browed Tiger clan can obtain Tiger Frost not only by condensing it but also that it exists within their bodies. You just need to cut the body and find the location of the demonic gate..."
"Elder! I just remembered... I've previously condensed some, and it seems I haven't used it yet. I'll bring it to you right away!"
Hearing half of Lin Xuan's words, the Tiger Demon's hairs stood on end. The meaning was clear – if he didn't give it, he would be slaughtered, and then they would search for it!
A blatant threat! But what could he do? At this moment, in front of Lin Xuan, he was not the Tiger Demon General but merely a little tiger demon! Even more like a little tiger cub!
The Tiger Demon quickly took out his Tiger Frost obediently. Lin Xuan happily accepted it. This substance could enhance one's strength, and for juniors advancing from the Blood Refining Realm to the Nascent Void Realm, it had remarkable effects in stabilizing foundations.
Although Ye Hao and Jian Chen could advance without it due to their talents, using it would be like adding the finishing touch.
After taking out the Tiger Frost, the Tiger Demon stood obediently on the side, waiting for Lin Xuan's instructions.
"Suppress your realm and provide pressure to my two disciples. Help them consolidate their blood refining and break through to the Nascent Void Realm."
Lin Xuan said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Ye Hao and Jian Chen were utterly dumbfounded. They were incredibly fortunate. Breaking through to the Nascent Void Realm, and having a master bring a Marquis Realm Tiger Demon to serve as their sparring partner?
This was much more comfortable than fighting a second-tier demonic beast!
For others, this was unimaginable. The Marquis Realm was equivalent to an inner sect elder of the Divine Heaven Sect! Moreover, it was a battle with a realm suppression! Elders couldn't lower their faces to engage in such activities!
In the Tiger Demon's heart, he once again felt the urge to cry without tears. When did he ever experience such a miserable situation?
Serving as sparring partner for juniors in the Blood Refining Realm breaking through to the Nascent Void Realm! Saying this out loud, he would truly lose face!
