Chapter 644
Sun Ce felt his senses sharpen as he stared into the blue eyes of a white skinned tiger that was charging towards him. The deer he was chasing was already dead. It was on the ground and its trembling body slowed to a halt.
“What a good tiger!” Sun Ce was excited to see the tiger. It looks like he won’t only be bringing back a good deer but also the skin of this white tiger. It was just the right timing too since the yellow tiger skin in his house was already getting old anyway and no longer had its original luster.
It was too late to dodge the tiger’s pounce especially on a horse deep in the forest. Sun Ce could not save the horse so he jumped away.
The horse neighed painfully together with the tiger’s roar. Sun Ce noted the tiger’s strength. The horse’s neck had immediately broke from the bite.
This horse may not be as good as his Wulong but he was still the Lord of Jiangdong. With his status, his horse is unlikely to be weak.
“Sigh. If only Wulong was here!” Sun Ce could not help but shake his head. Wulong was a divine horse. It was so good that it would kick the tiger’s head in the moment the tiger attacked.
“So. It is a male tiger.” Sun Ce said as he looked at the tiger’s crotch. He realized that he had entered the tiger’s territory which was why the tiger was acting this way. Otherwise, the deer alone was enough for it to eat his fill.
The tiger roared again and spat out the blood from its mouth. It stared at Sun Ce ferociously. It the rushed towards Sun Ce like the wind again.
Sun Ce quickly raised his spear and aimed at the tiger’s head. He wanted to kill the tiger with one shot.
The tiger also seemed to have some intelligence. The moment Sun Ce raised his spear it turned its head and deflected the spear with its teeth. Sparks flew as the spear clashed with the tiger’s teeth.
“Again!” Sun Ce said as he readied his spear. The tiger also realized that Sun Ce was no pushover and hesitated for a moment, looking for Sun Ce’s weak point.
“Hm?” Sun Ce noticed that the tiger was astute. The moment the tiger jumped again, Sun Ce raised his spear again. This time, the tiger turned around instead and swung its tail and deflected the spear.
The tiger stared at Sun Ce again. Sun Ce’s spear gave it a restraining fear. It was unwilling, but the blood spilled from the deer and the horse gave it an idea. It roared and then ran towards the horse. It then lifted the horse with its mouth and ran deeper into the forest.
“You want to run?” Sun Ce saw that this white tiger had a discerning eye. Since it knew it could not kill Sun Ce, it decided to run away with its spoils.
Though the tiger wanted to run away, Sun Ce was definitely unwilling to let it get away. Even if Sun Ce did not fancy the tiger, it had killed his horse. He would not allow it to run away like this.
The tiger ran deeper into the forest but the horse was heavy so it was having more trouble. Sun Ce chased after it. Since he couldn’t get ahead of it, he grabbed onto the tiger’s tail. The tiger ignored the fact that Sun Ce was grabbing onto its tail and continued to try and leave. It tried to jump away but failed as Sun Ce pulled it back down. Fortunately, the horse’s carcass was below it or its head would have been crushed.
The tiger continued to struggle but its tail was grabbed onto very tightly and it could not move. Sun Ce who was at the Peak of Refinement stage had extraordinary strength. It was more than enough strength to compete with a tiger.
The tiger gave a confused howl as it struggled to jump away. However, it could only spin around struggling from its tail being held down.
“Get back here!” Sun Ce shouted as he pulled onto the tiger’s tail with great effort. Even the ground sank beneath his feet. The tiger was thrown back down onto the ground. The tiger had lost to the human in strength.
The tiger roared angrily. It no longer cared whether this insect was stronger or weaker than him. He wanted to kill this man and eat him. Otherwise, it would lose its pride.
As the tiger was pulled back down, it was very near Sun Ce. Sun Ce was not able to use his Conqueror’s Spear. That spear may have been shorter than before but it was still too long. In the end, Sun Ce could only fight unarmed. The tiger roared defiantly as it was beaten into the ground.
“Milord! Milord!” Sun Ce’s guards finally came over with great alarm the moment they saw the corpse of the deer and the horse. However, when they saw the tiger, they quickly praised. “Milord is truly the God of War!” This white tiger had been pummeled to death with Sun Ce’s bare hands.
“God of War? You mean that person?” Sun Ce refused to accept the title and had his men bury his horse and take both the deer and the tiger with them.
His guards accepted the order. Just as they were about to leave the forest, a sound cut through the air.
“Careful!” After many years of experience, Sun Ce knew what this sound was. This was the sound of arrows covering the sky.
