Chapter 348: Chapter 347: Hemorrhage
To prolong life, they need to consume many natural treasures filled with life force. That\'s why the Lion Tiger Sword Saint desperately participated in group battles to earn money. It needed a lot of money to exchange for these treasures to help those members of its tribe who were gradually weakening to maintain their lives.
Not long ago, the Lion Tiger Sword Saint\'s wife also suffered a bloodline conflict. The pregnant Mother Lion Tiger Beast miscarried and began to deteriorate rapidly. This deeply grieved the Lion Tiger Sword Saint, who spared no expense in purchasing many natural treasures. So when it heard Tang San say there was a way to resolve bloodline conflicts, its excitement was palpable.
After understanding the general situation, Tang San already had an idea.
Lion Tiger Village was nestled in a mountain hollow about a hundred miles west of Jiali City. For most races, this area was forbidden territory.
Although the Lion Tiger Tribe didn\'t have any God level strong beings, their combat strength was extremely formidable. They were also very exclusive, and their unfortunate circumstances had cultivated their ferocious nature. Any outsider daring to enter their territory was bound to fight to the death.
Furthermore, even though they were outcasts from the Lion and Tiger Clans, they still possessed the bloodline of these two powerful clans. No one wanted to risk offending both by targeting them, especially when there were no benefits involved.
Swiftly, as a meteor chasing the moon. Standing on top of the mountain, looking down at the village in the hollow with most houses made of stone, the Lion Tiger Sword Saint couldn\'t help but roar up at the sky.
It had been many days since it last returned, and within its roaring Tang San heard a tremor.
Just as the Lion Tiger Sword Saint was preparing to lead Tang San down, three figures in Lion Tiger Village were already rapidly rushing out, heading straight toward them.
They were indeed three Lion Tiger Beasts, all very robust. Only half a step behind the Lion Tiger Sword Saint, their bodies radiated with the luminance of Lion Tiger Golden Gang, they rapidly approached like meteors.
"Big brother!" The leading Lion Tiger Beast roared, rushing up to the Lion Tiger Sword Saint and grabbing its hand, "Quick, come with me. Sister-in-law... I\'m afraid sister-in-law..."
The Lion Tiger Sword Saint\'s body quivered violently, "What happened to her?"
The Lion Tiger Beast slightly lowered its head, pained, "Sister-in-law is hemorrhaging badly. Come quickly, she has been holding on just to wait for you to return."
While speaking, it started dragging the Lion Tiger Sword Saint away.
"Hold on a moment." Just then, Tang San spoke up, flashing in front of the Lion Tiger Sword Saint, blocking their path.
"Roar—" The three Lion Tiger Beasts simultaneously roared at Tang San, the fierce Lion Tiger Golden Gang bursting forth as they prepared to attack.
"Hmph!" At that moment, Tang San let out a cold snort, a trace of divine consciousness in his spiritual power suddenly exploded, actually suppressing their roars.
"What are you doing?" The Lion Tiger Sword Saint growled low.
Tang San said, "If you want your wife to live, don\'t act rashly."
The Lion Tiger Sword Saint paused for a moment, "But, but she\'s hemorrhaging... This is the most severe case of bloodline conflict, she\'s already..."
Tang San said firmly, "You can\'t go now. Her condition is certainly very bad because she\'s waiting for you, hanging on by a thread. Once she sees you, if she lets go of that last breath, she will most likely be beyond saving. You can go back, but don\'t show your face in front of her. Let me try. Maybe, there\'s still a chance."
The Lion Tiger Sword Saint\'s entire body trembled. Suddenly, the tall and burly man, strong as steel, "thud" knelt before Tang San.
"Save it, please save it; as long as it can survive, I will become your servant. Please save it," it cried uncontrollably as it spoke.
Tang San patted its shoulder, then turned his head to the other three Lion Tiger Beasts and said in a deep voice, "Lead the way."
Though the three Lion Tiger Beasts didn\'t understand what this human was about, they knew there was no time to lose. Clenching their teeth, they immediately began to run wildly ahead. Tang San, stepping with Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, accelerated with Wind Protective Energy, following them straight to Lion Tiger Village.
Soon, they entered the village, which seemed to be made almost entirely of stone. There was a somber atmosphere in the village, and an oppressive feeling seemed to pervade the air, creating a sense of inner discomfort.
The three Lion Tiger Beasts ran swiftly, but the Lion Tiger Sword Saint had already caught up, his Lion Tiger Golden Gang exuding intense energy, his heartbeat seemingly fluttering violently.
Not bothering to observe the state of Lion Tiger Village, they quickly arrived at a courtyard. The gate was open; the Lion Tiger Sword Saint was about to charge in but then remembered what Tang San had said and immediately braked, looking at Tang San with a hopeful gaze as he followed.
Tang San gestured to it to be patient, then walked in.
The three Lion Tiger Beasts followed him inside.
The lighting inside the stone house wasn\'t very good, with only simple and small windows. On a large bed lay a Lion Tiger Beast.
It was quite large in size, but at this moment, it didn\'t have a human form. Its fur was tiger-striped, its head lion-like, and from its weakening life force, one could tell its condition was extremely dire, its heartbeat faint.
Hearing the sound, it struggled to open its eyes and seemed stunned for a moment upon seeing a human enter.
"Sister-in-law," the Lion Tiger Beast that had spoken to Tang San first hurriedly stepped forward, softly calling out.
"You... Where\'s your older brother..." the Mother Lion Tiger Beast on the bed asked with a trembling voice.
"Big brother..." The Lion Tiger Beast was unsure how to respond; it instinctively wanted to say his big brother was outside, but thinking of Tang San\'s words, it dared not say it.
"Hello, I am a doctor brought by the Lion Tiger Sword Saint to cure your illness. He has gone to fetch your medicine and will be back soon. Just hold on a little longer, and I\'ll take a look at you first," Tang San\'s timely voice resolved the awkwardness.
A look of confusion flashed through the eyes of the Mother Lion Tiger Beast, but it now lacked the strength to question further, its chest heaving slightly as its heartbeat seemed to stabilize.
Tang San quickly approached, sat down beside the bed, and placed his right hand on the neck of the Mother Lion Tiger Beast.
With his Spiritual Power, he almost instantly sensed the decline of the Lion Tiger Beast\'s own aura. Its body\'s blood felt somewhat dry, and what was more bizarre was that the blood in its veins seemed to be rejecting each other. If this were a human, it would have died countless times. The Lion Tiger Beast\'s strong Life Force, likely coupled with numerous precious materials, must have kept it alive until now.
The gentle Mysterious Heaven Method slowly infused into the Mother Lion Tiger Beast. The warm and Life Aura-filled energy of Mysterious Heaven Method entered its body, making the Mother Lion Tiger Beast feel as if warmth was spreading through its body, and its breathing immediately grew stronger.
Silently sensing the changes in the bloodline power within its body, Tang San carefully used the Mysterious Heaven Method to draw out a trace of bloodline aura, enveloping it within his Mysterious Heaven Skill.
Since arriving in this world, he had discovered that his Mysterious Heaven Method functioned differently here than it did back in Soul Land. In the plane of Soul Land, the Mysterious Heaven Method corresponded to the Soul Power of Soul Land in a one-to-one relationship. The energy cultivated from Mysterious Heaven Method was equivalent to Soul Power, used to stimulate the Martial Soul.
However, on the Demon Monster Land, his Mysterious Heaven Method couldn\'t equate with the powers of this land because the various bloodline powers here originated from the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan and did not belong to humans. But after continuous experimentation, he found that his Mysterious Heaven Method could harmonize with many bloodline powers. It seemed, though, his Mysterious Heaven Method was difficult for even humans of this plane to practice.
