I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 1564 - 1568: You Still Have to Help Me Advertise
The Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger had just stretched its muscles and bones, feeling a bit bored.
Ever since it was captured by the Great Magician Ainos and brought to this place, it has been countless years, and it doesn’t know whether its species still exists or what the outside world has become.
A special formation mark was implanted in its body, which serves two purposes: one, to prevent it from being affected by the world’s laws, so it could maintain its original life levels and continue to cultivate freely.
The second purpose is to ensure it can never leave this world unless its power surpasses that of Ainos.
But how could it possibly surpass Ainos? Even during the Cang Yuan Era, Ainos was a well-known figure. It’s very aware of its own talent and knows that without some extraordinary encounter, it could never surpass Ainos.
Plus, the endless life force of a perfect being means it will never be able to leave this place for its entire life.
Fully aware of this, it has become laid-back. As for guarding this cave, it merely hopes that occasionally someone will visit to keep it company. In a certain sense, it has become somewhat indifferent to worldly matters.
"These humans are really not interesting at all," the Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger boredly basked in the sun, hoping that the next batch of humans coming here would bring it some fun.
Suddenly, its nose twitched, a rich aroma hitting its nasal cavity directly.
"Smells so good!"
Back when it was outside, the Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger would transform into human form and move among humans. Compared to the raw eating of their kind, human food was simply delightful, and it couldn’t remember the last time it tasted such deliciousness.
Right now, it wanted to see who was cooking, but it glanced back at its cave.
There were indeed some treasures left by Ainos in this cave, and it was because of these treasures that humans kept coming, allowing it to occasionally scavenge some good things from their corpses. If the treasures were taken, no one would visit anymore, and wouldn’t it die of loneliness?
Caught between two tough choices, it decided to stick to its heart and tried not to smell that aroma.
"Damn humans, so cunning, if you dare come near, I’ll tear you apart!" It was well aware that this was likely an attempt by some human to lure it out.
However, at this moment, a figure appeared in the distance!
There were two young men and a burly middle-aged man.
The three of them were carrying a monstrous creature over a hundred meters long with an octopus shape, and the aroma came from this creature!
Did these humans actually bring food voluntarily?
Living for so long, it was the first time the Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger encountered such a situation. What did it mean? They came to offer tribute? This was the first time seeing such an operation.
"Could this be another human conspiracy?" The Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger immediately became highly vigilant; such unsolicited attentiveness must be a ploy, it couldn’t believe these humans were truly kind-hearted.
"Brother, don’t be nervous, I’m not here for a fight," Zhang Menglong said while approaching it, speaking in the language of the Cang Yuan Era.
"Human, what do you want?" The Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger actually spoke human language, "Do you think you can exchange this measly thing for the old man’s treasures in the cave?"
"There really are treasures!" Raditz showed a joyful expression, confirming their suspicion that treasures should be inside, though no one had ever entered before.
"No, no," Zhang Menglong laughed, "I just want to make friends with you. This is my way of showing sincerity. I thought, since you’ve been stuck here for so long, you probably haven’t tasted outside delicacies in ages. This is the Zhang Family secret grilled squid; under the grilling of Strange Fire, it’s crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and with my secret sauce, it’s an extraordinary delicacy!"
The Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger had long been tempted by the enticing aroma, and if it weren’t for some pride, it would have been impatient by now.
"Aren’t you afraid I’ll just eat you?" asked the Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger, "Our kind and humans have always been enemies."
"Well, there’re no eternal friends, only eternal interests," Zhang Menglong replied, "You purposely let those people go just to have someone to keep you company. If you kill me, who’ll make delicious food for you then?"
"You are quite interesting, human." The Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger’s mind was pierced by Zhang Menglong’s words, and it suddenly felt like it had found a kindred spirit.
Zhang Menglong tossed the grilled squid over, and the Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger opened its bloody mouth to swallow it, immediately intoxicated by the lingering flavor. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
"Is there more?"
"Plenty more!" Zhang Menglong was well-prepared in advance.
"This is called Beggar Kun."
"This is Kung Pao Dragon Cubes."
"This is Peking Roast Lion."
...
Zhang Menglong pulled out one after another of cooked Warcraft corpses; when had the Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger ever tasted such scrumptious food? Even back in the human world, such deliciousness was rare.
Especially when Zhang Menglong presented milk tea as the ultimate weapon, the Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger’s taste buds were completely conquered.
"Human, today you are my friend!" the Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger expressed with excitement, "I won’t take your offerings for nothing; you can take one item from the cave, but only one."
"Hahaha, Brother Tiger, I appreciate the gesture, but my appetite is bigger. I want all the treasures in this space!"
The Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger was taken aback, then laughed, "Brother, your appetite is indeed big, but not all things from here can be taken. There are many eighth-grade Warcrafters in this space, and not all of them are as easy-going as I am. Swaying them with tricks for treasures won’t be easy."
"I never intended to deceive," Zhang Menglong said, "What if I could help you all leave this place?"
"What did you say?" The Red-eyed Splitting Sky Tiger almost spat out its milk tea, "Are you serious? If you can help us leave, forget the treasures, we’ll gratefully present them with both hands and feet!"
Moments later, it calmed down, realizing these were magic array markings personally left by Ainos.
To talk about breaking them requires extensive magic array cultivation, and it’s impossible for an Array Master below the fifth order to decipher them.
Besides, according to limited information, there are few Array Masters among humans today, let alone someone like Zhang Menglong with seemingly no skills.
"How do you know unless you try?" Zhang Menglong said, "But first, let’s make a bet. If I help you leave, not only you must give me all the treasures here, but also promote it to all creatures in the trial space!"
"Deal!"
"Deal!"
