Azure Star is also a Pokémon Master!

"Madam, you have no martial ethics! Come on, try to trick me! Come on, try to ambush me! I'm just a young outsider."

The female Rathalos took the lead, spitting a fireball at the Zergling, and then immediately spread its wings and took flight, though its injuries made it stagger.

As the fireball exploded, Zhanlong roared in fury, then slammed the end of his greatsword against a protruding rock with a loud bang.

呲!

Sparks flew and flames flickered as the igniting material attached to the tail ignited instantly, turning the blue-brown tail blade red-hot in an instant.

This is the origin of the title "Scorching Blade" for the Dragon Slayer!

Taking advantage of the female Rathalos's stagger, the Grimmsnarl leaped high into the air and swung its tail blade down heavily.

At the critical moment, the female Rathalos bravely flapped her wings, narrowly avoiding a fatal blow.

The female Rathalos quickly took to the air, and the wrathful dragon could only helplessly let out a roar to drive it away.

"Don't run!" Su Yi retracted his tense Anjanath and mounted his Corviknight.

Zhanlong immediately turned his gaze over, leaped up again, and swung the tail of his heavy sword down.

The Corviknight moved swiftly, dodging the blades, and chased after the Rathian, which was gradually disappearing into the flying sand.

All the intruders flew away, leaving Zhanlong only to rage helplessly—after all, it couldn't fly.

Wow…

Finally, the rain poured down, and the rainwater mixed with yellow sand dripped onto the scorching tail blade, making a sizzling sound and emitting puffs of white smoke.

The dragon shuddered uncomfortably, letting its tail blade cool slowly, before heading off in one direction.

……

The torrential rain washed away the dust in the air, improving visibility somewhat. Corviknight braved the wind and rain to chase after the Rathian.

Soon, the female Rathalos flew into a large cavern in a massive rocky mountain beside the swamp.

Inside the cave, the environment became somewhat dim, but some glowing moss emitted faint light, allowing Su Yi to see his surroundings more clearly.

The air inside the cave becomes heavy with moisture, an underground river flows through it, numerous stalactites hang overhead, and clusters of stalagmites stand on the ground.

An underground river cave environment, completely different from the wasteland, appeared before Su Yi's eyes.

As you venture deeper into the cave, the sound of the rain outside is cut off, and all you can hear is the sound of flowing water. From the depths of the cave, you can begin to hear faint roars.

Su Yi recalled Steel Armored Raven and Sky, and slowly explored the depths of the cave.

As the terrain rose, the sound of rain returned, and the surrounding environment became dry once again.

Tar formed from decaying plants began to appear on the ground, along with some bones...

Gradually, the surrounding space began to widen, and a cave with one side open on the cliff appeared in front of Su Yi.

In the center of the cave, on a nest made of withered branches, the female Rathalos lay exhausted and powerless, with faint chirping sounds coming from inside.

"That's... a baby fire dragon?"

Su Yi looked closely and saw the two little creatures under the female fire dragon's wings, weakly opening their mouths and calling out, clearly craving food.

"No wonder the female Rathalos was so cautious before, but so persistent and fierce when chasing; it turns out she had a cub that needed to be raised."

"The rocky hills have become less prey-rich due to the presence of the Blackhorn Dragon, and the shallow swamps are the territory of the Dragon Slayer, and the Rathian has also suffered losses."

"Given the current weather and the female Rathalos's injuries, obtaining food is becoming increasingly difficult, and the Rathalos cub is very likely to starve to death..."

Chapter 193 The family must be neat and tidy

Upon seeing the fire dragon cub, Su Yi knew that this capture had yielded unexpected results.

At the same time, Su Yi began to think about how to protect the cubs first, so as not to accidentally hurt them in the battle later.

He's already acting as a father before even being subdued.

"The simplest way is to lure the female Rathalos away first, then carry her away or even capture the Rathalos cub directly..."

Su Yi suddenly hissed, realizing, "Oh no, I've been identified as a human trafficker."

Actually, there is another way, which is to put the female Rathalos to sleep by feeding her raw meat.

But will such a cautious female Rathalos fall for this trap?

It's suspicious to think that a piece of meat would suddenly appear near a familiar lair.

“In that case, then we…” Su Yi retreated into the cave, released a few of his companions, and explained his plan.

……

Inside the spacious cavern, some distance from the Rathian's lair, Corviknight and Sky Crow enhanced their abilities several times with their moves, preparing to launch an attack.

"Your main task is to lure it away from its nest and exhaust its strength; do not linger in battle."

"Oh right, Osora." Su Yi patted Osora's head.

"Huh?" Da Kong rubbed Su Yi's palm in confusion.

"Go easy on her, she might be your stepmother."

"Huh???" Da Kong looked puzzled.

Su Yi didn't explain much; the male fire dragons in the New World were no longer monogamous, but polygamous.

Only strong female Rathalos can share high-quality hunting grounds with male Rathalos and raise their cubs together.

The remaining, relatively weaker female Rathalos will be driven to the harsh environment of the Wildspire Wasteland to raise their offspring alone.

The female Rathalos in the previous nest is the latter.

It might be one of the wives of the fire dragon atop the ancient giant tree.

In other words, the two fire dragon cubs in the nest may be Ooku's half-brother or half-sister.

"Alright, go ahead." Su Yi patted Da Kong's wings.

"Maga!"

"Awooo!"

Corviknight and Sky took off quickly, flying towards the Rathian's nest.

"Wait for the right moment!" Su Yi and Lu Cao carefully advanced along the cave passage, then hid behind a rock at a corner of the passage and peered into the nest.

Inside the nest, the female Rathalos angrily drove away the intruders.

Using their speed and agility, the Sky and Corviknight outmaneuvered the Rathian and gradually guided her away from the nest.

The enraged female Rathalos didn't think much of it. It was gradually guided away from the nest by Corviknight and Sky, and flew out of the cave.

"Go!" Su Yi immediately rushed out of the passage and ran into the nest.

When Su Yi saw the two little ones in the nest, he laughed and said, "Wow! They're twins, a boy and a girl."

That's right, inside the nest are two fire dragon cubs, one male and one female. Judging from the situation, they are only a little over a month old, a bit smaller than Ooku, but already the size of a large pet dog.

However, due to some malnutrition, he looked very thin.

"Aww!"

The two little ones cried out in alarm when they saw Su Yi, their voices weak from hunger.

"Please, Chansey, use Sing."

"Lucky~" Chansey appeared, waved its little arms, and then hummed a hypnotic song.

The little guy, who had been struggling and crawling around, gradually became sleepy and slowly lay down in the nest.

"Hehehe, little guys, you won't go hungry if you follow me." Su Yi took out a capture ball and gently tapped it on the heads of the two sleeping little guys.

Outside the cave, the female Rathalos mustered her strength to drive away the slippery Corviknight and Sky, but in that instant, the scent of her offspring suddenly vanished.

"Roar!" The female Rathian instantly flew into a rage, turning around and charging into the nest without regard for anything else, with Corviknight and Sky immediately following.

Inside the cave, Su Yi heard the Rathian's terrifying howl and immediately put the little guy's capture ball into his pocket, then took out the capture balls for the Nargacuga and Odogaron.

The wind howled as the female Rathalos flew into the nest, staring intently at the empty nest before fixing her furious eyes on Su Yi and his group.

Roar!

The female Rathalos let out a mournful roar, and flames rapidly gathered in her mouth.

"Swiftmend, Odogaron, prepare for battle." Su Yi activated the Capture Ball, and Swiftmend and Odogaron stood ready.

"Roar!"

The female Rathalos roared angrily, spewing forth raging flames from her mouth.

The Swift Cat and the Odogaron skillfully dodged, but the area around the Rathian's nest was filled with flammable tar formed from decaying bones and plants.

The female Rathalos's breath ignited the tar, and in an instant, a large patch of flames burst forth around them, like countless bonfires rising into the sky.

The Swift Cat and the Odogaron were immediately engulfed in flames.

"The female Rathalos really went to great lengths to protect her nest," Su Yi said, shielding himself from the firelight.

"Odogaron, pull it down!" Su Yi shouted.

The Odogaron roared and leaped high into the air, pouncing on the Rathian.

The female Rathalos roared in pain as it was caught by the Odogaron's claws, but it immediately flapped its wings and somersaulted, throwing the Odogaron, which it had not yet firmly grasped, away.

The next moment, a long, bristly tail lashed out and slammed into the female Rathalos, causing her to howl in pain once more.

Exhausted and suffering from both old and new injuries, the female Rathalos gradually gave out and fell to the ground.

"It's at its last gasp! Swift Cat, Shadow Blade, Odogaron, Lackey Claw!" Su Yi seized the opportunity and commanded his companions to launch a full-scale attack.

Stab it!

Two companion beasts charged from the left and right, slashing their claws simultaneously, adding more wounds to the female Rathalos's already battered body.

The female Rathalos unleashed an unprecedented surge of will, lunging fiercely at the Swiftmend.

The Swiftcat was in excellent condition and immediately swung its bladed wings to meet the attack, trapping the Rathian's claws.

The next moment, the Odogaron seized the opportunity to pounce on the Rathian's back and bite hard.

Howl!
