Chapter 2108 - Kunlun Inferior Ancestral Tiger

Zu Xiangtian’s Wind Element was strong, but it was never his only trump card.

He had a high reputation in the Zu Clan mainly because he could be Possessed by four different powerful creatures with the Body-Borrowing Curse Art, gaining the ability to use their powers in a fight!

The creature Zu Xiangtian was Summoning now was something that two seniors in his clan had sacrificed their lives to subdue in a battle at Kunlun Ice Valley. Zu Xiangtian still remembered the battle clearly!

“Mo Fan, if you’ve been to Tianshan Mountain, you should know there’s a powerful creature who dwells there…” Zu Xiangtian kept talking while using the Body-Borrowing Curse Art, as if he wanted Mo Fan to know how he would lose the duel.

However, Mo Fan had a feeling Zu Xiangtian was just showing off his power to him and the crowd.

“I’m guessing you are referring to the Skyridge White Tiger?” Mo Fan was very patient too. Since it was an official duel, he preferred to overwhelm his opponent completely, and politely gave Zu Xiangtian time to prepare his move. Normally, he would not give an enemy time to utter nonsense. The only sounds they were allowed to make were cries of agony!

“That’s right, it’s the Skyridge White Tiger! But do you know about the species that has ruled over another mountain range in our country for more than ten thousand years?” An imperious yellow Aura was rising from Zu Xiangtian’s body as he was talking. The people could easily see the Aura with their naked eyes!

The Skyridge White Tiger was the sacred species of Tianshan Mountain, a species blessed by the Heavens. It was the symbolic creature of Tianshan Mountain.

However, there was another kingdom of demon creatures that posed an even greater threat to their homeland than the Kingdom of Undead: the Kunlun Demons Kingdom!

The ancestors of the demons from Dunhuang were from Kunlun!

The demon horde on the Qinling Mountains was a branch of the Kunlun Demons Kingdom!

The mixed breeds in the Dongting Lake had originated from the species of Mount Kunlun, too!

Since ancient times, the Kunlun Demons Kingdom had always been the largest and strongest demon kingdom dwelling in China. Most of the cold-blooded and vicious demon species scattered across China were descended from the Kunlun Demons Kingdom!

The Kunlun Demons Kingdom was the strongest kingdom of demon creatures in China. The Kingdom was even ranked seventh in the whole world!

Even though it was only ranked seventh, the places that ranked higher than it, like the Sahara Desert, Antarctica, and the Bermuda Triangle, were uninhabited regions far away from human territories.

However, Mount Kunlun covered half of China! There were even towns and villages located within its boundaries. There were humans living quite near the Kunlun Demon Kingdom!

The Kunlun Mountain Range varied greatly in altitude and weather. It held snowy peaks, valleys, mountains, forests, basins, and swamps, and there were all kinds of species on it, forming countless branches of the Kunlun Demon Kingdom. As a result, Mount Kunlun was also called the Kunlun Demon Mountain!

Even with so many species on it, one particular species had always ruled over Mount Kunlun: the species that was comparable to the white tigers on Tianshan Mountain, the Kunlun Ancestral Tiger!

Mo Fan had spent some time learning a lot about the history and origin of the demon creatures of China after his visit to the Tianshan Mountain. He knew the Kunlun Ancestral Tiger was the king of demon creatures, the most domineering species on Mount Kunlun!

That species was the first thing that crossed Mo Fan’s mind when Zu Xiangtian brought it up!

Mo Fan was still feeling a little doubtful when tiger stripes erupted on Zu Xiangtian’s face, fresh blood splashing all over the place like his face had just been torn apart. The bones on his face were sticking out. His face was replaced by a strange appearance that was the combination of a human face and the face of a tiger!

The demon tigers on Mount Kunlun were yellow, the color that symbolized royalty in ancient times. Even their Auras were different from most demon creatures. When its savage yet noble Aura spread into the surroundings, every creature would subconsciously tremble in fear, including humans!

All living creatures had the instinct to stay away from danger. Some species would naturally be afraid of their natural enemies, like how mice were afraid of snakes, and rabbits were afraid of eagles. When they noticed their natural enemies approaching, their hair would stand on its end while they shivered in fear.

The Kunlun Ancestral Tiger was called the king of demon creatures and the ancestor of Mount Kunlun because it was the natural enemy of every living creature! Even humans, who had evolved into highly intelligent creatures, would still react instinctively, like such tigers were their natural enemy!

“The Zu Clan seriously doesn’t care about the consequences when it comes to training your younger generations!” Councilman Zhu Meng could already guess what the creature was when he saw the yellow Aura. He was even more convinced when he saw the shocking changes to Zu Xiangtian’s body!

Was it really necessary to use a power like that in a duel? A power like that was only going to cause serious injuries, or even death!

“Our country is currently amid a grave crisis. Our clan must step up and take on an important role. I was planning to let Xiangtian train at the Sacred City for a few more years before coming back here to take on an important role for the country, but our country couldn’t wait any longer, considering the circumstances. Since he’s coming back, he should be leading the younger generations, so he must be strong enough to convince the others! I don’t think it’s unacceptable for him to use his trump card against Mo Fan, who has claimed to be the strongest Mage in the world!” Zu Bo said proudly, fondling his mustache.

Zu Bo was obviously Zu Xiangtian’s father, and had arrived not long ago. The officials of Feiniao City had immediately risen to their feet to greet the skinny middle-aged man before inviting him to take a seat.

The Zu Clan had three imposing figures. The first one was Zu Huanyao, who was reputable at the international level. He was particularly fond of Zu Xiangtian, since he did not have a grandchild.

Zu Bo was the Vice Chief of the Royal Guards, second only to Pang Lai. He had great influence in the country. Many Councilmen would line up in front of his residence to visit him during the Chinese New Year.

Two out of the three imposing figures of the Zu Clan were treating Zu Xiangtian like a pearl in their palm. On top of that, Zu Xiangtian’s Innate Talent was perfectly compatible with their clan’s specialty. He could easily achieve impressive results without putting in as much effort as the other heirs in the clan!

“It was an adult Kunlun Inferior Ancestral Tiger. One of our venture teams, made up of forty experts, took four years to track it down so we could make it our clan’s god. Two of my cousins died in the battle!

“Xiangtian is different from others, who are good-for-nothing. He’s obsessed with getting stronger, so he has been working very hard. He’s the only person worthy of the Kunlun Inferior Ancestral Tiger!

“Mo Fan is pretty strong too, since he has forced Xiangtian to use his last resort, but he’s too pompous and reckless. He can achieve great things, but he can also mess things up. He’s too unpredictable!” Zu Bo squinted. He was extremely calm, as if he had never been worried about the outcome of the duel!

“Vice Chief, why did you bring that up? The Chinese National People’s Congress has yet to pass the motion,” Zhu Meng spoke up.

“I’ve spoken too much. Let’s watch the duel,” Zu Bo smiled.

The other Councilmen and officials were confused. Was there something else related to the duel that their superiors had not disclosed to them?
