Chapter 1170: Appearance of the Territorial Lord
“I advise you to give up.”
The purple-winged eagle said, “You can’t find the Territorial Lord at all!”
“Shut up!”
Monkey felt a headache coming on because of the purple-winged eagle’s constant nagging. Now that he was outmatched by this unknown Territorial Lord, he was enraged and shook the purple-winged eagle’s body forcefully.
The purple-winged eagle was stunned again.
Monkey looked at Night Spirit.
“Fifth, you can’t find anything either?”
Although monkey, the spirit tiger and Qing Qing were ranked ahead of Night Spirit in terms of seniority, they knew that Night Spirit definitely surpassed them in terms of combat strength!
Without saying anything, Night Spirit’s gaze shifted to an empty courtyard in Ping Yang Town.
There was no one in the courtyard and the decorations were simple. Apart from the stone table and stool, there was only a peach blossom tree.
“What do you mean?”
The spirit tiger looked around and asked, “That Territorial Lord is hiding in this courtyard?”
As he said that, he released his spirit consciousness to check.
However, there was still nothing after a moment.
“There’s nothing!”
The spirit tiger blinked. “Night Spirit, that won’t do. You’re inferior to him as well.”
Night Spirit smiled and shook his head, pointing to the inconspicuous peach blossom tree in the courtyard.
“The peach blossom tree? It became a spirit?”
Monkey frowned slightly.
There were too many peach blossom trees around Ping Yang Town. Even if anyone caught sight of them, they wouldn’t pay any attention.
However, through Night Spirit’s reminder, everyone focused their attention on the peach blossom tree and gradually discovered something unusual!
Suddenly, the peach blossom tree vanished in front of everyone!
Right after, a figure appeared before everyone.
Monkey and the others were initially wary.
However, everyone was stunned when they saw who it was.
The person was wearing a white shirt and looked to be around eight or nine years old. He was a young lad with a tender face and bright black eyes.
“Where did this child come from?”
The spirit tiger asked instinctively without understanding what was going on.
Monkey rolled his eyes. “Are you blind? Can’t you see that the peach blossom tree in the courtyard is gone?!”
“I know, but…”
The spirit tiger scratched his head and looked at the boy not far away, asking in disbelief, “This child is the Territorial Lord of Cang Lang Mountain Range?”
In their imaginations, if one could become a Territorial Lord, even if they did not have three heads and six arms and were fiendish, they would have to be like monkey and spirit tiger – imposing and intimidating.
To everyone’s surprise, a pink and tender child appeared out of nowhere like a porcelain doll. It was far from what they had expected.
Monkey scratched his head as well, feeling troubled.
It would be easier if a fiendish person were to appear.
All he had to do was release thunderous means to suppress the latter.
However, he truly did not know what he was supposed to do against such a tender child.
He was afraid that he would kill the boy with a single punch!
Furthermore, the boy looked so pure and innocent that he could not bring himself to do it.
When Qing Qing and Ke Ke caught sight of the child, their eyes lit up and shone with motherly love. They could not wait to hug the child and cherish him.
“Who are you guys?”
The child asked sternly with a serious expression, “Are you guys here to harm others as well?”
Although he was questioning, the boy’s voice was soft and pleasant to the ears.
“Territorial Lord, save me!”
The purple-winged eagle shouted hurriedly.
The child pouted and seemed to be a little angry as he berated monkey. “Demon, hurry and let Uncle Purple Bird go! Uncle Purple Bird will feel terrible if you carry him like this!”
Black lines streaked across the purple-winged eagle’s face as it grit its teeth. “Territorial Lord, how many times have I told you! Please don’t call me Uncle Purple Bird in front of outsiders!”
“Hahahaha!”
The spirit tiger and Golden Lion burst into laughter.
Monkey grinned as well, finding it interesting but he did not loosen his grip.
“Child, what’s your name?”
Qing Qing came before the boy and squatted down, asking with a gentle expression.
“I…”
The boy turned his head slightly and blinked his large eyes, seemingly troubled.
He thought hard for a long time and said dejectedly, “I don’t have a name.”
“Why don’t you have a name?”
Qing Qing asked again, “Where are your parents?”
“I don’t have parents either.”
The boy shook his head.
The purple-winged eagle was almost in tears.
He was carried by monkey the entire way and initially thought that the Territorial Lord would be able to save him.
To think that the Territorial Lord had forgotten about him!
He was even chatting with the fiend demons opposite him!
“You don’t have any relatives even?”
Qing Qing was filled with pity.
“I do!”
Unexpectedly, the boy nodded hurriedly when he heard that. “I have kin! The young master is my kin!”
Pausing for a moment, a look of disappointment flashed through the boy’s eyes as he lowered his head. “However, the young master has left and hasn’t returned for a long time. I miss him so much.”
The boy’s eyes were a little moist and sparkled.
Qing Qing hugged the boy hurriedly and consoled him softly, “Don’t cry, don’t cry. It’s all that young master’s fault! He’s the worst after not returning to see you for so long!”
All of a sudden!
Qing Qing felt a tremendous force burst forth from her embrace and the boy broke free from her hug.
The boy took two steps back and glared at her furiously!
“You’re not allowed to say that!”
The boy’s brows were almost raised – he was clearly enraged!
He clenched his small fists tightly as an extremely terrifying aura emanated from his body. He hollered furiously, “You’re a bad person for saying that about young master! All of you!”
However, Qing Qing was not annoyed. She merely lamented internally, “This child is innocent and naive. His method of judging whether someone is good or bad is truly simple.”
It seemed like that young master held an extremely important position in the child’s heart.
While Qing Qing was deep in thought, the spirit tiger sensed the aura of the boy and was startled, pulling her back hurriedly.
They were confused by the boy’s appearance and almost forgot that he was a Territorial Lord!
Although he was also at the Void Reversion realm, he could hide from their senses!
Nobody could become a Territorial Lord without being exceptional!
“Eh?”
The boy’s gaze shifted and he frowned slightly. “Uncle Purple Bird, how come you were captured by them?”
“Heavens, it’s all thanks to that young master!”
The purple-winged eagle sighed into the skies with a bitter expression. “Territorial Lord, you’ve finally remembered me!”
“You guys are truly bad people!”
When the boy saw that, he was even more convinced.
This time round, he no longer hesitated and walked towards monkey and the others with a stern expression. The aura within his body rose continuously!
“Hehe!”
Rubbing his palms together, the spirit tiger said, “Brother Monkey, leave this child to me. Let me teach him a lesson.”
“Be gentle!”
Qing Qing said fiercely, “If you dare hurt him, I’ll break your legs!”
The spirit tiger said bitterly, “Alright, I’ll hold back a little.”
“Child, here I come!”
The spirit tiger shouted and lunged towards the boy.
Bang!
He lunged forward at an extremely fast speed and was sent back even faster!
Everyone was dumbfounded.
The boy raised his hand slightly and punched the spirit tiger on the head in a flash!
Before the spirit tiger could react, it was sent flying back and landed on the ground. It rolled a few times and its right cheek was swollen!
