No, there's still a chance!

The Nine-tailed Fox's eyes flashed; she remembered her agreement with Thunder Tiger.

As long as Thunder Tiger doesn't break his promise, there's still a chance for her.

Golden Tiger!

She must defeat the Golden Tiger!

However, the Nine-tailed Fox had some concerns about Thunder Tiger's influence.

Thunder Tiger is the elder brother of the Golden Tiger. With his support, the Golden Tiger's strength will definitely improve rapidly, and this is what worries her the most.

She is alone, while the Golden Tiger has the backing of a suspected eighth-level powerhouse.

"Hmph, if I can't defeat Thunder Tiger, it's because my skills are inferior. But if I can't even defeat Golden Tiger, I might as well be dead!"

The somewhat troubled Nine-tailed Fox shook her head, letting out a cold snort.

What does it matter if he has the support of an eighth-level powerhouse? After all, the Golden Tiger itself isn't eighth-level. As long as she trains hard, her cultivation speed will not be weaker than his.

"Thunder Tiger, let's see how long you can stay proud! Hmph, no more looking, time to train!"

A sense of urgency engulfed her heart as the Nine-tailed Fox glanced at the video screen showing Jiang Che, letting out a dissatisfied hum before putting away her communicator.

Placing the communicator in a soft grass nest, the Nine-tailed Fox quickly leapt out of it, coming to the flat ground in the center of the cave, closing her eyes to focus as she began to cultivate against time.

Just as humans on the internet say, compete, compete fiercely—no matter what, she intends to rely on her willpower to outmaneuver the Golden Tiger far away at Tiger King Ridge!

She couldn't wait any longer to rush towards Tiger King Ridge, defeat the Golden Tiger, and reclaim her Nine Illusion Immortal Bell.

Imperial Capital.

East District, in a small courtyard.

The Willow God's main body, as green as jade, shone brightly, its vibrant life force permeating the surrounding soil and plants, infusing them with spiritual essence.

The verdant willow branches swayed in the wind, emitting a green radiance that illuminated the courtyard, transforming it into a Spiritual Land rich with Spiritual Qi.

Beneath the ground, root-like knots resembling yellow jade extended downward, intertwining with the endless Power of Earth Veins hidden within the earth, continuously absorbing these strands of power.

At this moment, the Willow God's consciousness was immersed in her main body, slowly refining the absorbed Power of Earth Veins, converting it into vast Spiritual Power, causing her cultivation to slowly rise.

After her injuries healed, Willow God resumed her practice of absorbing the Power of Earth Veins, as she did before being wounded.

Of course, this also followed Jiang Che's advice before he left, urging her to seize the time to enhance her strength.

Just as the Willow God was refining a full stream of Earth Vein's power, her expression suddenly changed as if she sensed something.

The next moment, a true god-like phantom of the Willow God emerged from a cloud of green mist, her gaze directed towards the direction of Tiger King Ridge, her face filled with surprise.

Thunder Tiger has grown stronger again!

As the Guardian God of Dragon Country, the Willow God received information from Dragon Country regarding Thunder Tiger, especially details about Thunder Tiger's recent breakthroughs and the times he triggered Thunder Tribulations.

To the Willow God, the short intervals between Thunder Tiger's cultivation breakthroughs seemed almost unreal.

Even she felt a bit humbled comparing her own speed with Thunder Tiger's rapid progress.

Given Thunder Tiger's current strength, the Willow God thought it unlikely she could achieve the same feats as in the previous Imperial Capital battle, even if she amplified herself with the Power of Earth Veins again.

"It's best for Dragon Country not to get entangled with Thunder Tiger again!"

Thinking about the past grievances between Dragon Country and Thunder Tiger, the Willow God's expression turned serious, prompting a thought deep within her heart.

Subsequently, the Willow God transformed into a cloud of green mist, returning to her main body. A Jade Willow Branch broke through the void, extending into the space.

The next moment, in the research institute's office, Director Lin's face changed, standing up suddenly as he gazed at the cracked void in front of him.

"Who is it?"

Director Lin's heart was extremely tense—who has such immense power?

Thunder Tiger?

At that moment, the Willow God's branch slowly extended, green mist spreading, manifesting into a shadow of her true form.

"Willow God, it's you!"

Seeing the Willow God, Director Lin's eyes widened in surprise, but once he confirmed her identity, he felt at ease.

As the Guardian God of Dragon Country, the Willow God has helped the nation multiple times, so despite her sudden appearance, she surely meant no harm.

"Director Lin!" The Willow God said calmly, nodding slightly at Director Lin.

Whew!

Letting out a long breath, Director Lin calmed down, a smile spreading across his face as he tentatively asked, "Willow God, I was just planning to visit you. I didn't expect you to come first! How are your injuries?"

"Thank you for your concern, Director Lin. My injuries are fully healed!"

The Willow God replied slowly.

"Healed! That's wonderful; your recovery is a blessing for all of Dragon Country!"

Upon hearing this, Director Lin was overjoyed, his smile exceptionally radiant. If not for his age, he might have danced for joy.

During the Willow God's recuperation, the pressure on him was immense—he was constantly worried, especially about Qiongqi, which had wreaked havoc in multiple Dragon Country cities, exhibiting excessive cruelty.

The most troubling issue was Dragon Country's inability to handle such a creature.

But now with the Willow God awake, everything was different.

Should another powerful beast like Qiongqi appear, Dragon Country wouldn't need to fret; they could simply seek the Willow God's help.

For instance, the Black Demon Tiger!

Though they didn't know why, it was said Thunder Tiger had subdued Qiongqi, but Director Lin hadn't forgotten Dragon Country still had a formidable enemy lurking in the shadows!

This Black Demon Tiger harbored deep animosity towards Dragon Country, its transgressions numerous, and could attack at any time.

However, with the Willow God, even if the Black Demon Tiger is powerful, it won't be able to stir up much trouble.

"Director Lin, you should know that the Thunder Tiger King's strength has advanced again!"

The Willow God spoke with a serious expression, earnestly questioning.

"Yes, Willow God!"

Director Lin nodded, puzzled but attentive.

"Director Lin, the Thunder Tiger King's power has now reached an invincible level. Even I might not be his match, so Dragon Country should no longer provoke him!"

The Willow God solemnly cautioned.

Hearing this, Director Lin immediately nodded, responding, "Rest assured, Willow God, I understand what to do!"

Recognizing the reality after the Willow God's admission of being no match for Thunder Tiger, Director Lin decided to avoid confronting Thunder Tiger for now.

"Hmm!"

The Willow God nodded to Director Lin. In the next moment, her branch retracted into the void, disappearing from the room.

After the Willow God departed, Director Lin placed high importance on her advice, immediately ordering the nation to celebrate the Thunder Tiger King's protection of Dragon Country, once again elevating the divine beast's status.

Simultaneously, he ordered that a large quantity of Spiritual Objects be sent to Tiger King Ridge to congratulate the deity on its breakthrough in strength!
