My cultivation disguise has been exposed by Xiao Sizi.

It even rubbed its fluffy head against Wei Zheng's trouser leg in a very ingratiating way.

boom.

Faced with this epic level of super cuteness overload.

Wei Zheng, the most unyielding and outspoken official in the Tang Dynasty.

The steel defense in my heart crumbled instantly, shattering into pieces.

His longsword, held high, remained frozen in mid-air, unable to strike down.

"You...you all..."

Wei Zheng's face turned red as he looked at that round, chubby face with its black and white markings.

All his anger was forced into a helpless, bitter smile.

"Enough, enough! That beast is ignorant; how can I stoop to its level!"

Wei Zheng sighed deeply.

For some inexplicable reason, I reached out my withered hand and gave the panda's fluffy head a good rub.

Then, carrying his sword, he turned back with immense frustration and sighs.

The crisis in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the Confucian Academy was easily resolved by adorable creatures.

But the disaster at the main altar was far from over.

It was nearing noon.

King Li Tai of Wei, with a belly weighing over 200 pounds, carrying a toolbox, arrived at the main altar humming a little tune.

He was entrusted by Li Chen to reinforce the defensive formation of the main altar.

To save time, Li Tai was holding two steaming hot meat buns that he had just bought from the East Market.

"Sixteenth Brother! I'm here to get to work!"

Li Tai swaggered into the courtyard while munching on a steamed bun.

The aroma of the meat buns, carried by the gentle breeze, instantly filled the air.

Several large, spotted tigers were originally lying lazily sunbathing under the corridor.

His nose twitched twice.

Their amber eyes instantly flashed with a menacing green light.

He stared intently at the meat bun in Li Tai's hand.

"roar--!"

A deep, guttural roar from a tiger.

Several tigers at the Golden Core stage suddenly stood up, opened their blood-red mouths, and drooled.

Like an arrow released from a bow, it pounced madly towards Li Tai!

Li Tai was preparing to take his second bite.

Looking up, I saw several gaping maws, each the size of a washbasin, descending upon me!

"Oh my god!!!"

Li Tai let out a bloodcurdling scream, like a pig being slaughtered.

He threw down the toolbox in his hand.

At this moment, the more than 200 pounds of fat burst forth with an astonishing potential that defied the laws of cultivation physics.

He suddenly turned around, took off running, and began a frantic sprint across the huge square of the headquarters!

"Help! A tiger is eating people!"

The giant tiger was hot on its heels.

Li Tai was sweating profusely from running, and his clothes were soaked through.

The tiger's claws were about to reach his buttocks.

In a hurry.

Li Tai saw a thousand-year-old, crooked tree, ten zhang tall, standing in front of him.

He roared and, like a nimble fat monkey, used both hands and feet to climb to the very top of the tree in a flash!

He clung tightly to the tree trunk, looking down at the several striped tigers below, roaring and trying to leap up.

Tears of despair streamed down her face.

"Sixteenth brother! Help!"

Li Tai screamed hysterically from the tree, his voice filled with utter despair.

"This big cat won't eat cat food! It wants to eat me!!!"

On a thousand-year-old, crooked tree that is at least ten zhang tall.

Li Tai, the Prince of Wei of the Tang Dynasty, was like a huge, desperate worm clinging tightly to a thick tree trunk.

His two-hundred-pound body trembled wildly in the wind.

Because of the excessive force used in climbing the tree, the magnificent python robe had long been torn to shreds by the branches, revealing the white belly underneath.

And under the tree.

A three-headed, multicolored giant tiger, over three zhang long, exuding the aura of a Golden Core stage cultivator.

They were pacing back and forth around the tree trunk.

They raised their enormous heads, their amber vertical pupils gleaming with a menacing green light.

In its gaping maw, sharp fangs clashed, and drool even stretched into long, glistening strands, dripping onto the bluestone slab.

For these demon kings from the Hundred Thousand Mountains...

That fat man in the tree, exuding the aroma of meat, is a hundred times more tempting than any magic pill!

"roar--!"

The largest tiger seemed to have lost patience.

With a powerful push from its hind legs, its massive body soared into the air like an arrow released from a bow.

Its sharp claws dug two deep furrows into the rough tree trunk, almost reaching Li Tai's round buttocks!

"Ahhh! Mother, save me!"

Li Tai was so terrified that he let out a bloodcurdling scream like a pig being slaughtered.

He desperately moved half a foot higher into the tree branch, narrowly avoiding the claw.

Just when Li Tai thought he was going to die in the line of duty at the headquarters of the Divine Sect today.

"Hahaha!"

A burst of unrestrained, utterly heartless laughter erupted.

The sound came from the direction of the main gate of the main altar.

Li Chen was wearing the uniform of a vice cult leader, with his arms crossed over his chest.

He looked at Li Tai, who was shivering and trapped in the tree, and laughed so hard that tears almost streamed down his face.

"Second Brother, how come you, the number one contractor of the Tang Dynasty, have ended up up in a tree playing the Monkey King?"

Li Chen strolled leisurely to the tree, showing no fear of the ferocious tigers.

"Sixteenth Brother! You're still laughing! Get these beasts out of here!"

Li Tai lay on a tree branch, shouting with a mournful face.

"I only took two meat buns, who knew these big cats would go crazy!"

Hearing Li Tai's words, Li Chen shook his head helplessly.

He turned his gaze, his icy eyes landing directly on the three giant tigers that were preparing to pounce again.

"What's wrong?"

Li Chen's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable chilling authority.

"Have you had too much of the royal food of the Tang Dynasty and want a change of pace?"

The voice just fell.

"Buzz—!"

A terrifying pressure unique to Li Chen, mixed with the earth-shattering aura of purple-gold lightning.

Like an invisible, towering mountain, it crashed down on the backs of these Golden Core stage tigers!

Space seemed to freeze in that instant.

Those three beasts, which just a second ago revealed their ferocious nature, were now incredibly powerful.

After sensing this unparalleled killing intent that could even tear apart a Nascent Soul stage Buddha,

The green light in their eyes instantly transformed into endless terror and despair!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Without any hesitation.

The three-headed tiger's limbs went limp, and it collapsed onto the bluestone slab.

Its massive body trembled like a leaf.

To show their submission, they would even bury their heads between their two front paws in a very humiliating manner, whimpering like wounded puppies.

"Meow..."

The giant tiger at the very front even forced itself to let out another extremely aggrieved meow.

Up in the tree, Li Tai watched this scene with his jaw nearly dropping to the ground.

"Alright, get down here."

Li Chen withdrew his oppressive aura and waved towards the tree.

"When you come to work at the cult in the future, don't bring meat buns. Your figure is already like a walking meat bun; aren't you just tempting them to sin?"
