Chapter 11 The reques

Chapter 11

Shin Jiao stopped on his tracks. He didn't say anything but just stood there waiting.

'Are you still there?' the white tiger was a little bit anxious.

"Umn."

'I cannot move right now. Can…can you please help me?'

Thinking for a while and weighing his options, Shin Jiao decided to appear in front of the demon white tiger. He knows that even though the demon white tiger is really powerful, but still with his speed and weapons, he still will be able to kill it. So with that he walked towards the creature.

After a while the demon white tiger heard some footstep and smelled a very familiar scent, it is a scent of a human.

From within the dark woods appear a shadow, calmly walking toward the white tiger. After seeing the shadow the white tiger lift its head with vigilance.

"Human is that you?"

The white tiger opened its mouth and spoke in human language.

"Yes."

As he approached the demon beast on the ground he finally saw the whole situation. The ground is in chaos with fallen trees, blood and gore everywhere. The dead bodies of 3 mastiff are on the ground.

The white tiger's body has many wounds and its hind legs are bent in a weird way, which hinder its movements, and a show of weakness is displayed on its face. Although it attacked one of the mastiff, it was its last draw of strength.

When the white tiger saw Shin Jiao it knits its brows in confusion. It can clearly see that the youth in front is not a cultivator, no spiritual energy fluctuation can be seen, and no aura or even elemental affinity can be felt. It seems that its savior is just a mortal.

Even if the youth suppresses his spiritual energy he cannot hide it completely right? But this one doesn't have any at all.

"This is impossible… You're a mortal."

The white tiger blurted unconsciously.

But how can an insignificant mortal roam around this vast and deadly forest. This made the white tiger puzzled and really curious now.

"H…how?..."

The white tiger wanted to ask something but the youth suddenly interrupted its thought.

"I guess you didn't lie, you're really in a bad shape… Well I want to help you but I don't have any healing pills or potions on me."

Shin Jiao truly didn't use any healing support since he came in this world. The reason why he didn't use any potions or healing pills is because his healing speed is fast, and the more spheres he has in his dantian the faster his wound heals.

"Then how did you survive in this dangerous place?"

The white tiger blurted the question as it cannot believe the mortal in front of it.

But Shin Jiao just keep his silence and didn't answer. He has his secrets that he cannot tell to others no matter what.

Although the white tiger wanted to ask more, but it know that everybody has a secret that they cannot just tell to others, so it forcefully calm its emotion.

"In that case can you just help me gather some herbs? With enough herbs I can heal myself."

The white tiger made this request in hope that the human will be compassionate enough as he already save it once. The white tiger knows the enmity between humans and beast kind. But it felt something different with this human.

"Hmmm… okay, why not."

With a nonchalant look in his eyes, he just agreed.

"I cannot thank you enough human. Can I ask your honored name so that I can express my gratitude properly?"

"Un… My name is Shin Jiao, and you?"

"I am Nushia of the demon white tiger clan in the western borders of the beast land."

The white tiger lowered its head as a sign of respect and gratitude.

"Okay… So what kind of herbs do you need? Let me write then down."

Shin Jiao asked as he put his hand in his pocket pretending to get something. While he open the mansion dimension and take out some parchment. Holding the parchment he waited for the white tiger to name the herbs.

"There is no need to write it down, I can just send you the images of the herbs I need…"

With that said the white tiger used a secret technique to transmit a clear picture of 5 sets of herbs.

"These are the herbs, for the quantity I only want at least 2 stalks of each. I know this is far too imposing of me to ask you for this, but if you can help me I will not renege on my words."

Shin Jiao didn't hear what Nushia said after receiving the images in his mind. He just reveals an amazed expression and at the same time he was really curious of the technique the white tiger used.

"How did you do that? I mean… that was really amazing!"

He unconsciously blurted out. Deep in his mind he already picture some gadgets or equipments using telepathic transmission to send messages, pictures, or even videos. Just like the internet in his old world.

'Sigh, I really miss the internet. I wanted to read my favorite web novels and watch anime… I swear if I can improve my crafting techniques, I'll…I'll put up an Internet link in this world… Hmmm… that's not a bad idea. He he he'

While Shin Jiao was thinking, on his face a weird and ugly grin can be seen.

"Ahem…" the white tiger Nushia interrupted his line of thought.

"Oh, sorry about that… Well, can you teach me?"

With an awkward expression the white tiger shook its head.

"This is one of the innate abilities of higher level demon beast. So it's hard for me to explain how I did it."

"Oh I see… Well, how about mind reading?… Can you also read minds?" ask Shin Jiao curiously.

"No, I can't. Although I can receive your thoughts but that is on your command, I cannot read your mind. It is one of the laws protecting this world."

"Aw…. Okay, now that I got everything. It will take me awhile to gather these herbs. So we need to go to a more secure location where you can hide and recuperate."

He knows that as the white tiger stays in the open, the smell of blood can attract more demon beast. And since he is away the white tiger will just be sitting duck in here.

"Okay, where should we go then?"

"I have a temporary hiding place near here. It's a small cave near a large rock, just go straight in this direction."

Shin Jiao decided to let the white tiger temporarily stay in his hideout.

Although the white tiger cannot move agilely as before but it can still drag itself to the place where Shin Jiao pointed. With its pride as a higher level demon beast it will not ask more help from the human.

Shin Jiao just nodded his head and turn around. With a leap he suddenly disappear with a flash and atop the trees like the wind he flew.

The white tiger was dumbstruck upon seeing this.It really didn't know what's going on now. How can a normal human move faster than a cultivator. It even thought that the youth's speed is faster than itself.

"I guess this is the reason why he can stay here in this dangerous forest alone." The white tiger Nushia silently muttered.
