Xiao Hei looked closely and saw hundreds of human cultivators hunting red boars. The red boar leader had already been decapitated, and three men dressed in white stood beside him.
Qinghe: "Huh? Who is it? No, it's not human, senior brother, it's a tiger demon."
Qingnan: "Hehe, it's a rare black tiger, not bad. I happen to be missing a mount, so don't try to take it from me, senior brothers."
Shimizu: "Hehe, I only need my sword. Qinghe, go help your junior brother and take him down as soon as possible, so nothing unexpected happens."
"When we bring the flesh and blood of these red boars back to the sect, along with the ones captured by our other fellow disciples, if we succeed, our Sword Sect will be able to dominate the Spirit Realm."
Qinghe: "Yes, senior brother. Let's go, Qingnan."
Qingnan: "I know, senior brother. Don't worry, it'll be quick."
As they spoke, the two immediately flew towards Xiao Hei on their swords. Upon seeing this, Xiao Hei ran away without saying a word.
There's no other way but to run. Even the Red Boar leader has been killed. If he stays here, he'll be at their mercy.
"Damn it, how come these human cultivators suddenly appeared here? They look like disciples of the Sword Sect from Tianjian Mountain, thousands of miles away." Xiao Hei started flying desperately as he watched the two chasing after him.
However, the swordsman was not only sharp in attack, but also incredibly fast, trapping Xiao Hei in place in just a few dozen seconds.
Qingnan: "Black Tiger, why are you running away? Be a good boy and be my mount, or I'll make you end up like that red boar."

Qinghe stood on the sword without saying a word, only circulating his spiritual energy, ready to make a move at any moment.
Xiao Hei: "You two should talk this out. I was just passing by. That Red Boar is also my enemy. I came here to cause him trouble."
Now that I've been killed by these two masters, it can be considered revenge for me.
Qingnan: "Since I said I helped you get revenge, then you should thank me. Just be my mount, relax your mind and let me plant the restriction."
Cold sweat began to bead on Xiao Hei's forehead: "Damn it, Master isn't here, and I have no way to contact him. What should I do now?"
"Glug glug glug, ah! So refreshing." Iced drinks are the best.
"Why isn't Xiao Hei back yet? It's been almost half an hour." Lin Qing was getting a little impatient.
"Ding! Side quest issued. Please check it yourself."
Lin Qing was surprised: "I didn't expect that I could trigger a side quest?"
Side Quest: How could someone steal your mount? Rescue Little Black and make the enemy your mount.
Mission Reward: Three million Evolution Points.
Lin Qing thought that once the main quest was completed, there would be no way to trigger side quests. Now it seems that it was completely random, and it was even closely related to her.
"But someone actually tried to steal my Little Black, they're really bold."
Lin Qing thought for a moment. Since they wanted to steal Xiao Hei as a mount, it must be a human, since only humans need mounts.
"Hehe, Little Black riding a person as a mount, the scene is unimaginable."
Immediately, Lin Qing waved his hand to put the items away, then used his divine sense to discover Xiao Hei's figure, followed by two humans flying on swords.
Upon seeing this, Lin Qing immediately flew into a rage: "Damn it, Xiao Hei is under my protection, and you guys beat him up like this?"
Little Black is in a terrible state now; its once jet-black fur is now mostly singed.
Its tail was also severed once again, and its right forepaw was almost broken off, with only a little muscle holding it together.
Lin Qing activated the Tear of the Void and appeared directly in front of Xiao Hei, casting a healing spell into Xiao Hei's body.
Xiao Hei was terrified when he saw a figure appear in front of him, but he quickly recognized who it was.
"Master, Master, you've come! That's wonderful! I almost thought I'd never see you again. Waaah!" Little Black immediately burst into tears.
These people are truly ruthless. If he hadn't desperately used some kind of life-consuming secret technique, he might have died or been captured alive long ago. His cultivation level has even decreased by a hundred years.
During the healing spell, Xiao Hei felt his injuries healing rapidly. In just a few breaths, Xiao Hei returned to normal.
Xiao Hei: "Thank you for saving me, Master. Master, you must avenge me!" Lin Qing hummed in response and was about to speak when the people behind them caught up.
Without saying a word, he unleashed a sword beam, not caring whether Lin Qing was there or not.
Qingnan shouted, "Where did you come from? Get out of here! Black Tiger is my prey!"
Lin Qing looked up at the other person: "What an arrogant brat, are you looking for death?"
He slapped the sword light, and instantly, the sword light disappeared like clouds blown away by the wind.
Lin Qing didn't intend to let him off so easily. She clenched her fingers into a claw and pinched him. The latter's expression changed drastically, and he struggled desperately as if an invisible hand had grabbed his neck.
"Hmm? How dare you lay a hand on my junior brother!" Qinghe immediately activated his flying sword, unleashing a sword light imbued with raging flames.
"Shut up." An invisible wave emanated, and the fiery sword light was instantly shattered.
With a quick pull of his hands, Lin Qing captured Qinghe and Qingnan, grabbing each of them by the neck with one hand.
Lin Qing: "Weren't you so arrogant? Is this all you've got?"
Xiao Hei then said with his nostrils flared, "Let you two be arrogant, cutting me, burning me, making me your mount, and even putting restrictions on me, let you be arrogant, let you be arrogant."
Little Black used its newly grown tail to whip the two of them repeatedly, thoroughly enjoying itself.
"Damn it, how dare you arrest us? Are you tired of living? We are core disciples of the Sword Sect." Qingnan was still unusually arrogant.
Qinghe: "Xiao Nan, shut up. Senior, let's talk this out. We are core disciples of the Sword Sect. If you let us go, we will offer you a generous gift."
"Senior brother, even if they had ten thousand lives, they wouldn't dare kill us. If the Sword Sect finds out, they will definitely wipe out his whole family."
"Shut up! Can't you see our lives are in his hands right now?"
Lin Qing chuckled as he watched the two making a scene: "The Sword Sect is so powerful! I'm so scared. Don't worry, I definitely won't kill you."
Qingnan: "Senior brother, you see, I told you this masked monster wouldn't dare kill us."
Qinghe: "Thank you, thank you for sparing our lives, senior. Um, please release our necks, senior."
Fortunately, they were both cultivators and could hold their breath for a while; otherwise, they would have suffocated to death in that short time.
Xiao Hei was a little unwilling: "Master, letting them go like this is too easy for them. They just threatened us."
Lin Qing turned to Xiao Hei and said, "Didn't they say they wanted you to be their mount?"
Xiao Hei: "Yes, Master, I've already said that you are powerful, but they don't take you seriously at all."
"Okay, I'll have them serve as your mounts, it's settled then. I'll put some restrictions on them."
After saying that, Lin Qing directly invaded their minds, left a restriction inside, and then released them.
"Alright, the restriction is set. Just do this and do this, and you can activate the restriction. If they don't obey, they will be in a state of wishing for death."
Upon hearing Lin Qing's telepathic message, Xiao Hei nodded repeatedly, his eyes growing brighter and brighter as he looked at the two of them with immense excitement.
Little Black: "Haha, I never thought I'd have a mount one day. You two bastards, you've finally met your match. Grow bigger so I can ride you."
"Damn beast, you're asking for death." Qingnan, freed from his predicament, didn't think twice and immediately grabbed his flying sword and slashed at Xiao Hei.
Seeing this, Xiao Hei chuckled and didn't dodge. With a thought, he activated the restriction.
"Ah! It hurts, it hurts so much!" Qingnan stopped attacking, veins bulging on his forehead, and he kept slapping his head with both hands.
The other half, Senior Brother Qinghe, was in the same state, gritting his teeth and saying, "I didn't attack you, why, why did you activate the restriction?"
Xiao Hei: "What's wrong? Who told you not to grow bigger so I can't ride you? Grow bigger or not? If you don't grow bigger, then you two can continue like this."
A minute passed, and Qingnan couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Stop, stop! Black Tiger King, stop! I'll transform, I'll grow bigger right now!"
Chapter 252 Third Senior Brother (Please subscribe, vote for monthly tickets, and recommend!)
Despite the tearing sensation, Qingnan recited an incantation and began to grow larger, eventually becoming a giant over twenty meters tall.
Xiao Hei nodded with satisfaction and said, "Lie down, on all fours. A mount should look like a mount."
Qingnan didn't say anything, but landed directly on the ground below, like a horse, on all fours with its head tilted back.
"Ah, I can't take it anymore, Tiger King, stop! I'll transform too, I'll transform too!" Qinghe immediately followed suit and landed next to Qingnan.
The two looked at each other, both relieved. The restriction had been lifted, and seeing their senior brother (junior brother) doing the same thing brought them some comfort.
Lin Qing had to admire Xiao Hei. What the 21st century lacked most was talent.
Xiao Hei somehow got hold of two huge ropes, which he then put around the necks of the two men, and then tried to pull something out from behind them.
He thought for a moment, then pulled the rope back and said, "You two aren't good-looking, and your bodies are weird. Turn into horses, nothing fancy, just ordinary horses."
Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance and helplessly transformed into two enormous horses, though at least they had a fig leaf to cover their shame.
Xiao Hei immediately put ropes around the faces of the two horses, then took out a small, open-top chariot and threw it into the air. The chariot quickly grew larger.
Finally, it became a chariot over twenty meters long. Xiao Hei tied the other end of the horse rope to the chariot, and just like that, a horse-drawn chariot appeared.
Xiao Hei: "Master, what do you think of this vehicle?"
Lin Qing looked at the golden open-top chariot with great satisfaction, stepped forward and patted the tiger's head, saying, "Little Black, not bad, I'm very satisfied, but it would definitely be even more imposing if you pulled it."
Xiao Hei chuckled awkwardly upon hearing this: "Master, I'll go pull the cart right now. Don't worry, it'll be absolutely awesome."
Lin Qing waved his hand and said, "No rush, let these two pull it first. This chariot is not bad."
Xiao Hei: "Hehe, of course, this is a treasure I obtained after defeating a human."
Lin Qing flew into the chariot and sat down. To be honest, the cushion was soft and comfortable.
Xiao Hei immediately followed Lin Qing into the chariot, then shrunk to two meters in size and held onto Lin Qing's feet.
Lin Qing: "Get out of here and go catch the Red Boar. I asked you to find some ingredients, and you've given me all this trouble."
Upon receiving the order, the two horses readily pulled the chariot toward the valley in the Red Boar's territory.
Although the two were very obedient, they were secretly sneering: "Once you see your senior brother, your death is imminent."
"Hmph!" The two of them snorted in unison.
Xiao Hei: "Master, it's not my fault. As soon as I arrived in the Red Boars' territory, I saw that the Red Boars' leader had been killed by them."
"Hundreds of humans were hunting those red boars, I don't know what they were doing. If I didn't have some skills, you would be seeing my corpse."
