“Mewooooo!” The meters long big red cat swiftly pressed its paws on the twisting dark figure and made a bite. The tree root pressed under the cat’s paws was as thick as an adult’s thighs. It twisted intensely to struggle free from the cat’s grip.
“Errr…” The cat pressed it tightly on the ground with a pair of forepaws and sank its ten sharp, hook-like nails into the giant root as it gave it a hard bite while letting out deep growls from its throat.
As the big cat bit one of the tree roots, all the other roots paused and then turned and lunged at the cat. They seemed to be seeing the cat as a major threat, so much so that they even gave up on the other prey and attacked the cat together.
Anyhow, the cat didn’t seem to be afraid of those tree roots at all. It bit harder on the root in its mouth as it moved its forepaws away and twisted its neck, swinging its head from side to side.
Crack! A part of the root was ripped off by the cat. Next, the cat bent its six legs slightly and sprung up swiftly. Meanwhile, the broken root shrank into the nearby jungle and disappeared within a blink, along with the other roots. By the time Lin Qiao and her people realized what had just happened, those things were already gone without a trace.
The cat held a meters long section of the root in its mouth as it landed near Lin Qiao. Then, it put the root on the ground and pressed it with one paw before lowering its head and biting it. Soon, a light-purple, glowing liquid seeped out of the corners of its mouth.
The liquid was from the ruptured root.
“Is anyone hurt?” Lin Qiao looked at the people surrounding her and carefully observed them. Detecting no scent of blood, she sighed with relief in her head.
“No!”
“No!”
Everyone responded as they curiously looked at the big cat next to Lin Qiao.
“It actually followed us all the way here! How impressive!” Duan Juan looked at the cat, which was focusing on the food without even looking at the group of people.
“How did it come here? Ah… It’s so ugly! Is it eating the tree root?” Lu Tianyi looked at the cat carefully. It was the first time he had seen the cat, and he couldn’t help but keep looking at it. The weird-looking cat was so ugly in his eyes.
Lin Qiao gave him a glance and said, “You think it’s ugly, and in its eyes, you’re very ugly too.”
Lu Tianyi didn’t know what to say.
“That’s true!” Duan Juan nodded in agreement.
At the same time, the big cat raised its eyes to give Lu Tianyi a glance and wagged its tail with obvious dislike in its eyes. After that, it turned around and kept eating the root. Sensing the dislike on its face, he honestly didn’t know what to say.
The big cat reminded Lin Qiao of her pets, who were still in her space. So, she immediately flashed into the woods in her space.

“Come out, Black, Bowwow! I’m taking you guys out!” Lin Qiao stood on a tree and shouted in the woods.
“Owooooo!” Soon, a dog bark was heard along with a swishing noise that came closer and closer from a long distance away.
The dog darted up to Lin Qiao’s tree and raised his head to look at Lin Qiao while wagging his tail very quickly. From the tree behind the dog, an enormous black snake quietly crawled down as it let out his slim and long fork tongue, staring at her with its cold, rhombic eyes.
Lin Qiao jumped off the tree and waved at the two while saying, “Come here. Come here… Eh? Where’s the big mushroom?”
She looked around but didn’t see the mushroom, so she asked the two where it was. Then, she saw Bowwow and Black turn in one direction together.
Lin Qiao reached her sensations to that area and found the big mushroom squatted under a tree with the young tiger sleeping on its head. The mushroom didn’t respond to Lin Qiao’s summoning because it didn’t want to wake the young tiger up.
Knowing that the mushroom had decided to babysit instead of going out with her, Lin Qiao didn’t call it again but brought the two out of the space. She didn’t need to warn them; they were both at level-six after all. They were able to identify danger and tell what was helpful and what was harmful.
Once out, Lin Qiao started keeping a close eye on the two, because she wasn’t sure what the underground air might do to them. She wasn’t so worried about Bowwow actually, only about Black.
Black was a mutated beast while Bowwow was a zombie beast; the former needed to breathe while the latter didn’t. Therefore, Lin Qiao didn’t need to worry about Bowwow.
She fixed her eyes on Black. Three seconds after coming out of the space, Black started reacting to the new environment.
“What’s it doing?” Everyone watched Black swing its head up and down pretty hard.
“He’s just sneezing,” said Lin Qiao.
Black curled its body up and couldn’t stop sneezing. Of course, its sneeze sounded like heavy snorting.
The people present didn’t know what to say.
“I think it’s because of the air. The dog from Green Mountain Base has a gas mask. Aren’t you gonna give him one?” Duan Juan felt pity for Black, who could not stop sneezing.
“I don’t have anything like that,” Lin Qiao shook her head and said, “I just want to know if he can adapt to the air here. If he can’t, I’ll just send him back into the space.”
At that moment, Black suddenly shuddered and relaxed its curled body before tossing on the ground, seemingly in great pain. Lin Qiao immediately flashed to the snake’s side and brought it into the space, throwing it into the big pool that was dug by Lu Tianyi earlier.
The enormous Black curled up on the bottom of the pool and made the water spill.
“I guess you really can’t go out, because you aren’t a local resident in this area…” Lin Qiao said a few words to Black before leaving.
She went out to find her dog chasing the big red cat, which was larger than itself by many times over, and trying to bite it. The big red cat raised a paw and slapped the dog away with a cold look on its face. It would have bitten the dog directly to death if it didn’t know that the dog was on Lin Qiao’s side.
“I think the cat’s saying ‘stupid dog’ with the look on its face,” Lin Qiao moved to Duan Juan’s side and heard the latter say.
