The charming widow of the Marquis's mansion: The stable boy carries the flag and raises the dra

The black giant tiger was pinned to the ground, watching helplessly as the sword lights shot towards it, its eyes filled with despair.

"No!!!"

Dozens of sword beams pierced through its body, riddling it with holes.

Its eyes were wide open, its mouth was agape, and its face was frozen with the resentment and fear of its impending death.

The two halves of the red python's corpse were still twitching when they were blasted into a bloody pulp by the sword light.

After the gray giant wolf's corpse exploded, it was shattered into dust by the sword light.

The black lizard feigned death, only to be riddled with holes by the sword light.

Eleven Grandmaster-level magical beasts were either killed or injured in the siege by Xu Wanyun, Xiao Qiu, and Xiao Xian'er.

Only a few remained, struggling to hold on, but they were all covered in wounds and on the verge of collapse.

The golden ape lay on the ground, its entire body covered in wounds.

Its left arm was severed, and only half of its right arm remained.

One and a half of his legs were broken, and golden blood gushed from the wounds, staining the ground gold.

Its tail was also cut off, and blood was still dripping from the cut.

It raised its head and looked at Wang Long, its eyes filled with fear and despair.

"Spare...spare my life..."

The golden ape's voice was hoarse, tinged with tears.

"I...no, I...I was wrong..."

"Please...spare my life..."

"I'm willing to do anything... anything..."

"I'm willing to become your contracted magical beast..."

Wang Long walked up to it and looked down at it from his superior position.

"Spare you?"

His voice was calm, revealing no emotion.

"You just said you wanted to take my bones off one by one and stew them into soup."

"You must cut off pieces of my flesh to feed the children."

"He even said he was going to touch my woman!"

"Now, you want me to spare you?"

The golden ape's body trembled violently, and it couldn't utter a single word.

Wang Long looked at it and remained silent for a moment.

The golden ape then took out its inner core, which it had cultivated for many years.

The surface of the sphere was covered with faint golden patterns, radiating a rich spiritual energy.

That was the inner core of the golden ape, cultivated for over a thousand years, containing the essence of its life's work.

"Please, this is my inner core. Whoever possesses it can decide my life or death, and it's also a great tonic for martial artists!"

Wang Long looked at the inner core that was bigger than his head and was indeed quite tempted.

Upon seeing Wang Long moved, the golden ape seemed to see a glimmer of hope.

"I……"

Wang Long interrupted it, raising his hand.

"Even if I kill you, your inner core will still be mine!"

A sword of literary energy condensed in his palm, its tip aimed at the head of the golden ape.

The golden ape looked at the sword, at the golden light flowing on its tip, and felt the extremely sharp killing intent emanating from it.

"You...you can't do this!"

The golden ape was completely devastated!

The next moment, the flying sword pierced through its chest from behind.

puff!

Golden blood gushed out.

The golden ape's body stiffened abruptly, and it lowered its head to look at the sword piercing its chest.

The sword's blade is as clear as crystal, radiating a warm golden light.

Another flying sword of literary energy slashed from the side.

puff!

The golden ape's head flew off, tumbled several times in the air, landed on the ground, rolled a few more times, and stopped next to a rock.

Its eyes were wide open, its mouth was agape, and its face was frozen with the resentment and anger of its impending death.

The headless corpse of the golden ape crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Wang Long reached out and grasped the inner elixir in his hand.

It feels warm and heavy to the touch, like holding a small sun.

He could sense that the inner core contained a tremendous power.

If used for cultivation, it would be enough to raise his cultivation level to the next level.

Xu Wanyun walked down the ridge, her white dress stained with a little blood, but she was in excellent condition.

After advancing to the Grandmaster level, dealing with these magical beasts is as easy as cutting melons and vegetables.

She slowly walked to Wang Long's side, glanced at the headless golden ape corpse on the ground, and asked softly.

"Uncle Long, are you alright?"

Wang Long shook his head, smiled, and put the inner core into his storage ring.

"It's alright, this beast isn't even enough to warm me up."

Xu Wanyun smiled and looked at the other monster corpses.

"I'll go and retrieve their inner cores for you."

As she spoke, she walked toward the corpse of the black giant tiger.

Wang Long followed behind her, and the two of them worked together.

The black giant tiger's inner core was the size of a fist, dark red in color, with a faint glow flowing across its surface, radiating violent fire-attribute spiritual energy.

The inner core of the red python is long and thin, like a small snake, and its entire body is crimson red and hot to the touch.

The inner core of the gray giant wolf is grayish-black, with mist swirling around its surface, and the faint howls of vengeful spirits can be heard.

The black lizard's inner core is dark green and has a chilling, icy feel.

Eleven Grandmaster-level magical beasts, eleven inner cores.

The quality ranges from the early to late stages of the Grandmaster realm, and each one is priceless.

Wang Long put them all into his storage ring, clapped his hands, and nodded in satisfaction.

"These inner cores are enough for this old man to use for a while."

Little Fairy floated down from mid-air and landed on Wang Long's shoulder.

Her little face was full of fatigue, and her eyelids were drooping.

"Master, I'm so tired... I need to go back and rest..."

Her voice was soft and sweet, with a hint of coquettishness.

Wang Long reached out and gently patted her head.

"Thank you for your hard work, little fairy. Get some rest. When you wake up, I'll make you something delicious."

Xiao Xian'er's eyes lit up, and she nodded vigorously.

"Yes! Master, you must keep your word!"

After saying that, she transformed into a beam of light and entered the Heavenly Gang Sword.

The Heavenly Gang Sword hovered in the air, its nine-colored patterns slowly flowing and radiating a warm glow.

Wang Long reached out and put the Heavenly Gang Sword into his body.

Little Chirp swooped down from the sky, folded its wings, and landed beside the corpse of the black giant tiger.

It lowered its head, its golden vertical pupils staring at the enormous corpse, and opened its beak.

A powerful suction force emanated from its mouth, and the black tiger's corpse began to shrink before it was swallowed whole.

Little Chick tilted its head back, swallowed the corpse, and squinted its eyes in satisfaction.

One after another, the corpses of all twelve Grandmaster-level magical beasts were swallowed by it.

Little Chick's belly swelled up like a small hill, but it showed no sign of stopping.

It raised its head, looked at the low-level magical beasts that were scattering and fleeing, opened its beak, and took a deep breath.

A clear, melodious cry echoed across the sky.

The voice wasn't loud, but it carried a power that sent shivers down one's spine.

The low-level magical beasts that were fleeing suddenly froze.

The next moment, they flew back uncontrollably, pulled by an invisible force, towards the little chick's mouth.

Thousands upon thousands of magical beasts, like rivers flowing into the sea, surged towards Little Chirp in dense numbers.

The little chick opened its beak and swallowed it bite by bite.

He ate with great relish, his dark grape-like eyes narrowing into crescent moons.

Xu Wanyun stood aside, watching this scene with a deep sense of shock.

It took Little Chick a full half hour to finish swallowing all those magical beasts.

Its belly was swollen like a small mountain, and its body was swaying so much that it could hardly fly.

But its eyes were full of excitement and satisfaction.

"Chirp~~"

Little Chirp let out a satisfied chirp, flapped its wings, and wobbled to Wang Long's side.

Its body began to glow.

Golden light emanated from its body, growing brighter and brighter until it illuminated the entire mountain ridge as if it were daytime.

Little Chick closed its eyes, its body hovering in mid-air, its wings slightly open.

Its aura is rapidly increasing.

It was a natural progression, and he easily reached the late stage of the Grandmaster realm!
