Chapter 84

However, now that the other Family Heads were aligning themselves with Li Xiaobai, Tangneng First-class was untouchable for the time being.

In the distance, on the official road.

The thunderous roar tore through the sky, and the earth trembled violently. The surrounding beasts scattered and fled like startled birds.

The faces of the people on the truck flushed with excitement. Previously, when they encountered Demonic Beasts, they only had the option to flee, never like now—puffed up with pride. With the truck driving on, all living creatures made way; it was simply too exhilarating!

Dust billowed on the ground, and the sound of thunder filled their ears. This was the true mount of a real man.

Boss Ye, what a divine being!

“Woof! Kid, your mount’s not bad. Get one for Lord Ergouzi too!”

Ergouzi gazed longingly at Li Xiaobai’s driving from the passenger seat.

“Aren’t you a mount yourself?” Li Xiaobai glanced at it and said indifferently.

“Woof, kid, you dare to look down on Lord Ergouzi!”

Ergouzi flew into a rage and lunged over to wrestle with Li Xiaobai for the steering wheel.

The body of the truck swayed wildly from side to side. Being a heavy truck that measured over ten meters in length, it drifted drastically, with tires screeching shrilly. The cultivators on the truck were nearly flung out.

“What’s wrong, is our mount throwing a tantrum?”

“It seems we have offended it by being on board. Please, mount senior, we meant no disrespect—our apologies!”

“We beg you, mount senior, to calm your anger!”

The cultivators were struck with terror. They couldn’t bear the wrath of this roaring beast, so they quickly prostrated in the cabin, constantly apologizing.

They had never seen a truck before, mistaking it for some type of Demonic Beast mount.

“Let go, you damn dog, you almost caused me to get into a traffic accident!”

Li Xiaobai, his expression annoyed, yanked Ergouzi, trying to throw it off the truck.

“Woof, if you don’t get a mount for Lord Ergouzi, I won’t let go!”

Ergouzi clung to the steering wheel with both paws, unmovable no matter how much Li Xiaobai pulled.

Man and dog were at a stalemate, battling over the steering wheel; the truck tilted and veered off the official road, plowing into a nearby grove of trees.

The truck rampaged forward, ancient trees and huge boulders shattering in its wake, raising clouds of dust.

The cultivators in the cabin were so shocked they couldn’t speak, grasping the railings for dear life.

This mount had to be furious. To be able to directly smash such large trees, the strength must be immense!

“Let go, let go! Fine, I’ll give you one, just let go first!”

Li Xiaobai, out of options and unable to move Ergouzi with the vehicle out of control, could only agree.

“Woof, you should’ve said so earlier. Lord Ergouzi is not the kind to be unreasonable. I don’t ask for much, just something similar to this vehicle,”

Ergouzi said, tilting its head, its paws still tightly gripping the steering wheel, sending a very clear message: give me what I want, or I won’t let go.

Li Xiaobai, speechless, quickly browsed through the marketplace.

Even after consuming Justice Elixir, Ergouzi couldn’t shake its inherently scheming and malicious behavior. This wasteful creature should definitely not be indulged.

“Just give me a cheap mount to get rid of, that’s fine.”

Hopping around, Li Xiaobai found a suitable mount.

[Pudong Rooster: Appears to be a little chicken, but is indeed a chicken with the Undying Phoenix Bloodline. Can resurrect an hour after death. The more times it dies, the stronger it becomes. It can temporarily grow larger after consuming Spirit Stones. (1000 Lower Grade Spirit Stones, current death count: 0).]

[Note: In this world, no Pudong Rooster is innocent.]

Great, you’re the one!

The Pudong Rooster is the cheapest mount in the mall, only costing 1000 Lower Grade Spirit Stones, plus it’s a living creature that doesn’t need Spirit Stones to be activated, so it’s energy-saving.

“Ergouzi, I do indeed have a pretty good mount here. I went through a lot of trouble to get it. Since you want it today, I’ll give it to you, hoping you’ll treat it well in the future.”

Li Xiaobai flicked his wrist and pulled out the Pudong Rooster.

The Pudong Rooster was only the size of a palm, with fiery red feathers, a golden beak, and a pair of bright, spirited eyes.

It cocked its head slightly and groomed its feathers, strutting its proud and impressive appearance as soon as it made an appearance.

“Woof, isn’t this just a chicken? This counts as a mount? Kid, you’d better not be fooling your Lord Ergouzi.”

Ergouzi looked suspicious and clawed at the Pudong Rooster, causing a bout of clucking chaos.

“Don’t underestimate it. This is a Pudong Rooster, carrying the Undying Phoenix Bloodline with the ability to resurrect. After eating Spirit Stones, it can grow large enough to be a mount. Usually, it’s quite small and can be carried around easily, which is very convenient.”

“Moreover, besides this, it also has automatic feeding and automatic path-finding domestic functions, making it a highly intelligent mount.”

“That strong? Lord Ergouzi doesn’t believe you. Kid, give me a Spirit Stone to test it out.”

Though Ergouzi voiced his disbelief, his body honestly clutched the Pudong Rooster to his chest, pressing it down with his paws.

“If you want Spirit Stones, earn them yourself, I don’t have any.”

Li Xiaobai spoke indifferently, observing that Ergouzi seemed to be thoroughly bamboozled by him.

Based on the introduction, the chicken was indeed impressive with the Undying Phoenix Bloodline and the ability to keep resurrecting, but these were just superficial features. No one knew how many times the chicken had to die before it could transform into a master chicken.

For now, the chicken seemed utterly useless apart from being able to crow, and while it might look impressive when it grew larger, it was still a useless bird.

A peculiar light flashed in Ergouzi’s eyes as he stared intently at the chicken in front of him, his mouth involuntarily drooling.

With the Phoenix Bloodline and the ability to resurrect, the first thing he thought was to stew the chicken since the Pudong Rooster could come back to life. Drinking a bit of Phoenix blood wouldn’t hurt.

The Pudong Rooster felt the threat and flapped its wings frantically, hopping wildly on the co-pilot’a seat.

Li Xiaobai figured out what was going through Ergouzi’s mind. “Ergouzi, this chicken just has the Phoenix Bloodline, it’s not the Phoenix itself. Eating it won’t do you any good, so don’t get any funny ideas.”

“Woof, how could Lord Ergouzi eat his own mount? You’re biased against Lord Ergouzi!”

Ergouzi stretched out a paw and once again pinned the Pudong Rooster underneath him.

Li Xiaobai pondered for a moment and took out an Elixir from his Space Ring. It was the Justice Elixir, which after being consumed, would send one’s evil values off the charts, perfect for keeping Ergouzi in check with this chicken.

He grabbed the chicken’s head and tossed the Elixir into its mouth.

“Woof, kid, what precious Elixir did you give it? Lord Ergouzi wants one too!”

“It’s the same one I gave you before.”

“Cluck cluck, damn it, this stupid dog looks so foolish drooling all over the place, tarnishing my noble and pure feathers!”

The Pudong Rooster fluttered its wings a few times, then froze.

“Cluck cluck, can I talk now?”
