I alone am the Honoured One!

*fllck* Zhao Tian appeared before and he reached out, gripping Yao Lian's neck.

"Wha-" Yao Lian was taken aback, gazing into his cold blue eyes 'He is faster than me? Urghh! The time is over...'

Hm? A frown crept over Zhao Tian's face as he felt the grip on her smooth neck slip away and her body suddenly disappeared.

The fox's fur shimmered softly, catching the light in a way that made it look almost magical.

Huh? Zhao Tian was surprised to see the cute little fox with pink fur floating before him.

"She... turned into a fox?"

Ning Xue also came running towards him and saw the pink fox levitating in front of him "Tian... what happened to her?"

Zahra Ashante who was on the sidelines, also came there and glanced at the pink fox "Ehhh? This bitch turned into a fox."

Zhao Tian slowly lifted his hand and gently cradled the delicate fox in his palms, feeling the weightless body of the sleeping fox.

Frowning, Zahra Ashante spoke "Tian, now is the right time... snap its neck and kill it so it won't cause any more problems."

-_- What? Ning Xue stared blankly at Zahra Ashante. "Zahra, what the hell are you saying? To kill that woman?"

Zahra Ashante pouted her lips and replied "This cunt almost killed me, Yu Hua and you.. Sister Xue. It is dangerous to leave it alive like this."

"See, I am sure... even now this bitch is pretending to be asleep and acting cute, so we won't kill her."

Zhao Tian blinked his eyes and glanced at the sleeping fox in his palm. He gently used light energy and noticed there was only a bit of life energy left in the fox's body.

With a sigh, Zhao Tian spoke "She is really unconscious. She is not sleeping... she has burned out her life energy."

Wha- Zahra Ashante was taken aback "She burned her life energy? Doesn't that mean... she is almost dead now?"

Whenever a cultivator ascends to a new stage, their life energy increases which means their life span increases and they can prolong their youth for a longer period of time.

So burning this life energy essentially means burning your years of life for an instant boost of power.

(A/n: I still haven't charted how many years for each stage in the Empyreal realm. I will add them later.)

Zhao Tian shook his head "No, she is not dead... When I grabbed her wrist, she absorbed my life energy. Maybe she can suck other people's life energy, that's why she is boldly burning her life energy."

At this time, Ning Xue also remembered, "Tian... At the start, she looked like a mature woman but later on, during our fight, she suddenly became younger..."

"And now, she looks like a fox."

Zhao Tian raised an eyebrow upon hearing this "Then, there must be some way she can regain her life energy."

Ning Xue had a frown on her face as she spoke "Tian... you bring her back to the artifact and the artifact will give her the black tattoo which will make her a slave to you and obey your commands."

"Since she is like a beast... ask Sister Shenyi if there are any beast-tame techniques too."

Zhao Tian nodded his head and uttered "I also thought of that..."

As he spoke, he turned his eyes and saw that Zahra Ashante was thinking about something. "What are you thinking, Zahra?"

Zahra Ashante let out a sigh "No, it's just that a sudden thought came into my mind."

Hearing her serious tone, Zhao Tian and Ning Xue narrowed their gaze "What is that, Zahra..."

"That... how would it taste if we roasted that fox and ate it?"

HUH?

HUHHHHHH?

(ʘᗩʘ')

*gik* Ning Xue shivered in fear and raised her hand bonking her head "What the hell are you actually thinking? You damn idiot."

Zahra Ashante was taken aback and rubbed her head in mild pain "W-Why? it is also a beast... We can eat it?"

"No, No, No.. Are you out of your mind?"

Zhao Tian face palmed himself and shook his head helplessly. 'How did she become my woman...?'

But he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart amusedly as he found her aloofness cute.

He walked to her and pecked her lips "You can't eat her..."

Zahra Ashante instantly smiled and nodded her head as she tried to hug him.

But since the fox was interfering with her hug, she grabbed the fox and yeeted it up in the air "Hahah, Tian... now hug me..."

-_- huh?

Ning Xue hurriedly jumped in the air and caught the fox in her hand "You bitch!"

Zhao Tian smiled dryly in his mind 'She is one hell of a crazy woman...'

"Tian..." Zahra Ashante hugged him tightly, snuggling her face around his neck.

Seeing her beautiful face, he sighed faintly in his heart and kissed her forehead, his fingers caressing her cheek.

Nestled in his warmth, Zahra Ashante's eyelashes fluttered and a smile stretched across her lips, happiness washing over her heart "Tian... I lo- WRAGGHHHHHHHH!!"

Suddenly, a chilling and piercing cry from a beast reverberated through the air, causing her to jolt in surprise and Zhao Tian turned his gaze to the astral beasts in the distance running here and there.

"It seems like this woman was guiding them all along. Now that she is unconscious, they are running in confusion causing chaos."

A green glint passed through Zahra Ashante's eyes and her lips twitched in annoyance "You fucking astral beast."

She pulled herself from the hug and dashed up high in the air, as twin green daggers appeared in her hand.

"How dare you ruin my peaceful moment with Tian!"

With a fierce yell, she hurled herself towards the ground, her wind energy erupting in powerful bursts that tore through the astral beasts surrounding her, leaving the ground shattered in her wake.

Ning Xue could only shake her head "Is she pissed? Well, glad she is motivated to kill the beasts."

Zhao Tian walked near her and took the fox from her hand as he planted a kiss on her lips "Now, you go and help the others kill the beasts."

"I will take this to the artifact."

"En."
