Because, on that Daoist Child's body, there wasn't a trace of blood...
Indeed, in the next moment...
Whoosh~
Flames emerged on the Daoist Child's body, his form rapidly twisted, and finally transformed into a large dog with a black body, stepping on evil fire. It looked at Su Tu, flames flickering in its eyes.
"Brother Profound City, this little gift of yours... is quite tricky..."
Su Tu looked at the giant dog with a bitter smile.
He recognized the identity of this creature, completely black, stepping on evil fire, and having a forked tail with white fur; it was the fierce beast Huo Dou!
That's an evil beast from the Ancient Era of the Gods and Immortals, unexpectedly appearing here...
Such a creature is born extraordinary, called a fierce beast, but can also be referred to as a fierce god. To have this as a test is a bit unreasonable...
Nonetheless, these thoughts flashed in Su Tu's mind, though he complained, there was no fear in his eyes.
He raised his hand, standing by his side, while sacrificial fire burned fiercely behind him, and Huo Dou's eyes followed Su Tu, breathing out fierce fire, scorching the space.
The next moment!!
The two rushed towards each other.
However, just as Su Tu raised his fist, ready to strike...
He found that Huo Dou's tail was wagging frantically, as if extremely happy, and then the fierce beast actually stuck out its tongue, adorably licking Su Tu's fist.
This scene left Su Tu stunned on the spot...
"Master, am I being good? I've driven away all those not of our Dao Lineage."
Huo Dou spoke with a childish voice, its huge tail still wagging.
"You didn't kill them? Just expelled them?"
Su Tu immediately grasped the key point.
"Yes, I am the Fire-Burning Beast of Douluo Palace, not a mindless evil beast, I'm unsullied by killing, but if the master needs, I can kill them right now!"
When saying this, Huo Dou's eyes originally as clear as a husky's, squinted slightly.
In an instant, a terrifying killing intent surged forth.
"No need!"
Upon seeing this, Su Tu hurriedly waved his hand, and Huo Dou's eyes returned to normal.
"What on earth is happening?"
Su Tu seemed a bit puzzled, originally thinking this was a test from his senior brother, but now it appears that's not the case.
Huo Dou, full of spiritual essence, heard Su Tu's question and opened its mouth.
"Master, I am Huo Dou, originally a source of disaster, despised by all, defying all. Upon my birth, my mother perished to the world..."
With Huo Dou's narration, Su Tu finally knew why a fierce beast awaited him here.
When Huo Dou was born, its mother died, and it was by coincidence that Grand Master Profound City passed by, taking it to Douluo Palace and enlightening it.
Day and night it listened to Dao, its fierce nature fading, becoming a small fire-tending Daoist Child in the palace.
Later, Profound City found it, asking if it was willing to help test his junior brother's skills, and it willingly agreed.
But unexpectedly, just after agreeing with Profound City, it fell into slumber, only waking just now.
"I immediately recognized your identity, Great Master asked me to test your skills, but..."
As Huo Dou spoke, there was a hint of fear.
"But what?"
Su Tu also sensed something's amiss...
"But I forgot... my memory isn't so good, originally remembered the test topic but forgot, only remembered there might be martial skills in the test, hence I made a move, but it seems you're not too happy.. so I didn't dare..."
While saying this, Huo Dou's tail drooped, it peeked at Su Tu with big eyes.
Upon hearing this, Su Tu couldn't help but smile wryly.
What a situation, this unnecessary fight...
"Don't look like that, I'm not blaming you..." Su Tu said, looking at the pitiful Huo Dou.
Upon hearing this, Huo Dou's tail immediately lifted high again, wagging frantically.
"Great! Thank you, Master!"
"Oh yes… Grand Master Profound City left me a message for you before I fell asleep..."
Huo Dou then said.
=====
In the outside world.
One by one, students who participated in the final exam were heading towards Hangu Pass.
But even before they could make a move.
Fiery figures emerged from the vortex one by one.
Everyone looked at them, puzzled, while Mu Wuyang and Feng were also bewildered, they thought they would be killed by the terrifying flames, but unexpectedly, they were merely expelled from the relic.
"What's this situation??"
Wang Xiaoming rushed over, asking the calmest person present, Mu Wuyang.
"We had just entered the relic when we heard a loud noise. Then a blur appeared on the sky, followed by a rain of fire falling, after which I know nothing."
Other students nodded one after another.
Wang Xiaoming looked around the crowd, not seeing any sign of Su Tu.
"Haven't found anything? Su Tu hasn't come out yet, could it be.."
As he thought about this.
Boom!!
A fireball appeared in the void, followed by Su Tu's figure among the crowd.
Upon seeing this, Wang Xiaoming's expression changed, thinking only those with great fortune could explore Douluo Palace, but even Su Tu came out so quickly.
It can only be said, Douluo Palace indeed stands worthy as the land for alchemy, truly mysterious.
He was about to ask Su Tu something.
But at this moment, the crowd burst into exclamations.
Wang Xiaoming looked up: "You've got to be kidding me?!"
He said with a bit of loss.
Then he saw the translucent vortex dissipating, everything wondrous vanishing at this moment.
He quickly ran to the instrument, adjusting it furiously, and finally sat powerlessly in the chair.
Judging by the current fluctuations, Douluo Palace has vanished...
Soon, Su Tu collaborated with the investigation, his account matched Mu Wuyang's and others perfectly.
A blur exploded, followed by a rain of fire, Su Tu relied on speed to dodge the first wave but failed to dodge the second, being expelled from the relic.
Afterwards, Su Tu and others returned to their homes under the escort of the investigation team.
Wang Xiaoming sat in the office, eyes darting about constantly, while his assistant appeared somewhat anxious.
A lot of effort was invested by the Federation for this relic, now it's just gone, now let alone a promotion, uncertain if the job can continue.
Yet, Wang Xiaoming spoke at this time: "Stop darting around, this time we have made a contribution!"
"Prepare to inform the predecessors, in Douluo Palace relic, there is suspected existence of beings from the Era of the Immortals..."
======
As soon as he got home, Su Tu entered the bedroom, raising his hand, thoughts swirling about the Egg of Chaos, instantly a pitch-black spatial portal expanded.
A furry little head peeked out immediately.
It was a little black dog, looking only three or four months old, extremely adorable, entirely black with a tuft of white fur on its tail.
It jumped out of the portal, curiously looking around, tail wagging frantically.
"So this is the master's era, what a unique room..."
A childish voice rang out, this little black dog, was Huo Dou.
It was truly the gift Grand Master Profound City sent to Su Tu, a genuine fierce beast, sealed by great means within the false residual shadow of Douluo Palace, waiting for Su Tu's arrival.
Though it's young, it possesses incredibly terrifying combat power. Its flames can even burn through void, and is absolutely loyal to Su Tu.
"Hmm, later I'll get you some cat food to eat, no idea where that fellow went, it shouldn't mind eating cat food."
Su Tu rubbed his chin as he spoke, then took a bag of cat food from the cabinet, poured it into a bowl, and placed it on the ground.
"Master, I'm fine with just eating fire..." Huo Dou initially wanted to refuse, but as the cat food fell into the bowl, its little nose sniffed involuntarily, then ate frantically.
Emma, what is this, it's so delicious!!
Its little tail almost wagged into a propeller.
"Ah Huo, are you sure the message Brother asked you to convey to me, you didn't mess it up?"
Su Tu then sat on the edge of the bed, eyes looking outside the window, voice pondering.
"Uh-huh~ I definitely wouldn't mess it up!"
"Grand Master Profound City asked me to tell you.."
"Named predecessor, actually great disaster, all should be thoroughly slain!"
