"Don't wait any longer, slaughter these brats from the Extreme Fist Sect!" Miao Xiyang roared in anger.

"Kill the bastards from the Heavy Sword Sect!" After seeing Zhou Yang die, Elder Zhou's eyes turned red, his killing intent soaring to the skies.

"Kill, kill, kill!" The people of the Extreme Fist Sect shared a common enemy, their eyes filled with fierce killing intent.

...

Several days ago, at Sunset Mountain.

Looking at the Black Bear Spirit in front of him, who was displaying a fawning look in an anthropomorphic manner, Lou Yi was somewhat speechless.

He's killed many monsters before, but this was the first one that actively wanted to follow him.

However, this Black Bear Spirit, with its sleek and shiny black fur, along with its shiny black eyes, black nose, and black tongue...

It looked quite a bit like a five-black dog he had raised in his previous life.

"I've heard it's quite popular to raise young monster cubs over in the Central Plains." Zhu Darui scratched his head.

"But this isn't a cub, is it?" Huang Lei mumbled.

"It's intelligent and won't hurt people; it's a natural beast pet." Suggested the only doctor, Blind Man, in Sunset Mountain.

"Then from now on, you will follow me." Lou Yi made the decision, then his voice turned stern, "But remember, do not harm people without reason, or I'll turn you into a pot of bear meat soup!"

The Bear Spirit showed an honest expression, continuously bowing.

Returning to the stronghold.

"Oh my goodness, the Bear Spirit has come knocking at our door!"

"Run quickly!"

The enormous Bear Spirit, following closely behind Lou Yi, indeed stirred up quite a commotion.

Lou Yi and his group explained for quite some time before the bandits believed that this bear had no intention of harming them.

Fortunately, it indeed behaved itself and never acted out of line, allowing Lou Yi to slightly let his guard down.

It did have a big appetite though; even a whole pig wasn't enough to satisfy it, which made Zhu Darui lament because they couldn't afford to keep feeding it.

"Tomorrow, take it hunting with you." An idea came to Lou Yi, and he instructed.

"Boss, only you seem to be able to control this Bear Spirit, right?" Zhu Darui said with a wry smile.

"Tell it that it can have a portion of the hunted meat." Lou Yi chuckled.

The portion of meat was naturally not raw but cooked food.

Upon hearing this, the Black Bear Spirit's eyes lit up, and it started calling out excitedly.

After tasting cooked food once, it deeply fell in love with its flavor.

The next day, Zhu Darui and his group took the Black Bear Spirit to the back mountain.

The Black Bear Spirit navigated the back mountain effortlessly, easily helping them hunt down three wild wolves, two muntjacs, and a deer.

"Awoo!"

The Black Bear Spirit stopped in place, unwilling to move, and Zhu Darui understood its meaning, cursing with a smile: "This guy's greedy, Ergou, roast a muntjac for it."

"Roger that!" A middle-aged bandit in the group agreed wholeheartedly, "Let's go to that high slope, to avoid mosquito bites."

He reached the summit of the back mountain, at the flat slope of a certain edge, preparing to set up a roasting rack.

Suddenly, looking down, his expression changed.

A few miles away from Sunset Mountain on the plain, a large patch of black dots could be seen rapidly approaching.

"A beast tide, it seems like the beast tide is coming towards us!" the bandit named Ergou said in shock.

"Quick, go back and find the boss!" Zhu Darui was a bit panicked as well.

They hurried back to the stronghold, ignoring the Black Bear Spirit's discontent.

Soon, Lou Yi received the news and led a group of bandits to guard the entrance of Sunset Mountain.

"Roar!"

"Howl!"

"Moo!"

In just half an hour, several waves of wild beasts surged in, including leopards, wild wolves, tigers, rhinos, and wild boars...

But they were all repelled by the bandits' arrows, and many prey were shot dead.

However, before the bandits could cheer, a big fellow sniffed out the unusual scent here.

"Snort! Snort!"

A Wild Boar Spirit, over five meters long, covered in black scales like heavy armored tanks, with blood-red eyes and tusks pointing skyward, was glaring fiercely at the crowd.

"Release the arrows!"

Zhu Darui shouted.

'Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!'

A large number of arrows rained down on the Wild Boar Spirit but made a clanging noise.

All deflected to other places, not even breaking the other party's skin.

The Wild Boar Spirit charged forward with its head down.

It charged directly through the first tall wooden fence at the entrance, shattering it to pieces!

"Damn, this wild boar is just too arrogant!" Huang Lei exclaimed.

Then they saw a black shadow rush out from their side, bringing a gust of wind.

"Awoo!"

The Black Bear Spirit reached the Wild Boar Spirit, delivering a slap with its paw.

'Bang!'

The Wild Boar Spirit let out a miserable scream, its head caving in from the immense force.

Its huge body lay on the ground, twitching constantly, clearly more breathing out than in.

"Oh shit!"

The bandits at Sunset Mountain were dumbfounded, not expecting the Bear Spirit to be so much stronger even though both were monsters.

Lou Yi's eyes flickered.

This Black Bear Spirit, in terms of strength, was only somewhat inferior to the Two-headed Wolf Demon he had encountered before, with thick skin, strong defense, great strength, and agility.

The Two-headed Wolf Demon was a Beast King.

Generally, when normal monsters encountered it, they indeed had no choice but to take a beating.

After this, several more monsters rushed over.

Among them were larger Wild Boar Spirits of the same species, red giant wolves with hardened fur, and even a massive tiger over six meters long with a fierce look in its eyes.

Other than the tiger, which could hold out a little longer under the Black Bear Spirit's claws, persisting for more than ten seconds or so.

All other monsters were dealt with in two or three moves.

In just a few hours, the Black Bear Spirit earned Lou Yi twenty points of energy and brought a large amount of meat to Sunset Mountain.

However, everyone at Sunset Mountain wore serious expressions, and their mood didn't seem too upbeat.

"Damn, this is probably just a small portion for now, and when the real beast tide hits, even the Black Bear Spirit won't be able to stop it!" Zhu Darui exclaimed.

"No other choice, who told us Sunset Mountain happens to be right in the path from the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range to Tai City, almost a must-pass route." Huang Lei said reluctantly.

"At this point, the only option is to retreat and come back after the beast tide is over." Lou Yi made the decision.

"Where to?"

"Jia Family Manor."

Upon hearing this, the bandits of Sunset Mountain widened their eyes suddenly.

"Will the Jia Family Manor take us in?"

"The beast tide is imminent, there's a chance for survival only by joining hands to fight it." Lou Yi said, "Over there is outside the usual beast tide route boundary, the pressure should be much less than here."

Once the decision was made, Lou Yi, who was a decisive person, ordered his men to take with them important supplies such as provisions and weapons.

The entire mountain, totaling more than two hundred people.

Those with higher status rode alone on horseback, while regular bandits sat in simple wooden carts, heading mightily towards the Jia Family Manor.

In the very front, a towering black giant bear, five to six meters tall, walked upright.

It was not a bit slower than a fine horse, and even had the leisure to look around.

On its shoulders sat a young man in black, half-closed his eyes, seemingly half-asleep.

Even though the Black Bear shook violently during its run, up and down, the man's butt seemed glued to its shoulders, as steady as Mount Tai.

This strange team, upon arriving five miles near Jia Family Manor, caused a stir within the manor, putting the entire place on lockdown.
