The Return Of The Beast Inside

"Pika? Pika!" (Poaching Xiong Yong? Have you asked for my opinion, bastard!!)

With a piercing cry, surrounding dust clear to reveal Wang Shóu in the sky, conjuring a massive orb of electricity on his tail.

On his face, clearly reveal his angry and annoyed expression with Flame Lion King.

Though he may not outwardly express it, but in his heart, he sincerely treat Xiong Yong as his little brother.

Although if Xiong Yong wants to follow someone else, Wang Shóu will not stop it and will even bless him. But now someone wants to take Xiong Yong against his will?

In the word of Chinese Xianxia novel, he is courting death!

He have a mild personality, and rarely get angry but when it comes to things that he valued, that is entirely a different story. 

Living among wolves from young age, Wang Shou naturally has a strong sense of territorial. But after living in the modern society and integrating with other human beings, it gradually became diluted over time.

But it does not mean that it is gone. It is merely only hidden, suppressed in his heart.

Wang Shóu is not aware of it, but repressing this a over long period of time, has distorted his psychology to a certain extent.

On materialness such as money or valuable object, Wang Shóu is indifferent and would be even generous, giving it to other people. 

But when it comes to something that he really valued such as family, friend and companion, Wang Shóu become somewhat... 

Possessive.

Of course Wang Shóu is unaware of this 'small' problem. 

'Electro Ball!' 

With a short cry, he swung down the orb of electricity, at a piercing speed.

Whoosh!

Before Flame Lion King could react, Electro Ball has already arrived, heading at his face.

Bang!

Black smoke stirred up, with his face covered in soot and Flame Lion King has traces of blood all over his face. 

"Roarr!"

Flame Lion King roared, thrashing around, with his eye in tremendous pain, unable to see the surrounding environment around him.

But Wang Shóu didn't show any pity, and once he landed on the ground, immediately ran toward Flame Lion King.

'Quick Attack!'

Instantly, Wang Shóu moved at a blinding speed, leaving behind massive dusts behind his back. 

'Electro Ball!'

Accumulating enough speed, Wang Shóu kicked the ground and jump up, condensing electricity to form an huge orb.

Condensing almost instantly, Wang Shóu turned his entire body forward to gain momentum, and throw the Electro Ball down with immense force. 

But Wang Shóu wasn't done yet. As soon the Electro Ball was thrown down, Wang Shóu immediately activated another move.

'Thunder Shock!'

Lightning powerful than a normal Thunder Shock burst out from Wang Shóu's body and relying on his delicate control, he manipulated the lighting to hit him from behind, propelling him toward Flame Lion King!

While being propelled by his skill, Wang Shóu quickly absorbed the electricity that was striking from behind, shrouding his body in electricity similar to a lighting armor. 

'Quick Attack!'

Once again using Quick Attack, Wang Shóu shrouded with electricity became even more dazzling, like a lone shooting star amidst the starry night!

Wincing in pain, Flame Lion King with his strong recovery ability, quickly open his eye to see another Electro Ball bigger than before in front of him, fast approaching him.

Seeing this, Flame Lion King's brain momentarily paused, unable to process the information that his eye is conveying to him.

Failing to react in time, the Electro Ball quickly arrived, striking the Flame Lion King. 

"Roarr!..."

Flame Lion King roared, but this time this roar had no fierceness or the confidence it once had. It is now a weak roar filled with pain.

Fortunately or unfortunately, the Electro Ball did not struck his face, and only hit the upper part of his body, otherwise Flame Lion King's face would have been permanently disfigured.

But Flame Lion King did not show any excitement on his face. On the contrary, desperation was only shown on his face, with despair contained in his eye.

He can see that after the Electro Ball, a blinding stream of electricity far too fast for him to react, is also quickly approaching him.

In that stream of electricity, Flame Lion King can vaguely see the yellow mouse inside, shrouded with dazzling electricity, looking almost like a God of Thunder. 

He can also see the cold, indifferent emotion on the yellow mouse's eye as if he is looking at a dead creature. 

At this moment, Flame Lion King was filled with regret and remorse, as he realized...

He had provoked someone that he should had never provoked. 

The real danger was never the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear, but the inconspicuous yellow mouse that he had subconsciously ignored.

Now he can only taste the bitter consequence of his actions. 

Bang!

A loud explosion occur, stirring up massive dust in the process, shaking the surrounding environment.

Landing gracefully on the ground, Wang Shóu then gazed at the surrounding environment with an indifferent expression on his face.

Nearby Blazing Demon Lions, in the presence of Wang Shóu's emotionless expression, the surrounding lions trembled involuntarily, devoid of the courage they once possessed.

Seeing the Blazing Demon Lions cowering like a frightened kittens, Wang Shóu no longer paid any attention to them and uttered a brief command.

"Pika." (Begone)

Upon hearing Wang Shóu's words, the Blazing Demon Lions exchanged glances before swiftly retreating into the forest behind them, showing no concern for their leader, Flame Lion King.

As Blazing Demon Lion's back slowly dimmed, Wang Shóu's eyes flickered for just a second before he turned around to face Xiong Yong.

"Pika." (Hey, I hope you aren't too badly hurt, Xiong Yong)

Wang Shóu said with a smile on his face, as if he hadn't had a cold, emotionless expression just a moment ago.

Xiong Yong, who had been in a daze the entire time, finally reacted in hindsight.

"Roarr!" (Boss Lei Feng! I'm glad you're okay!)

Xiong Yong said, briefly displaying excitement on his face, but then his expression shifted to frustration.

"Roarr..." (But I wasn't able to help you when you were in danger...)

Xiong Yong showed remorse on his face, feeling guilty for his inability to help Wang Shóu. 

Sinking into deep remorse, he felt a cold but familiar voice, along with a pat on his shoulder.

"Char." (No, you did well enough as the little brother of Lei Feng)

Xiong Yong turned around to see Huo Long, who had a cold expression on his face along with small scratches and marks on his body.

"Char, Char." (You dealt with miscellaneous soul beasts from getting in Lei Feng's way. That is good enough)

Wang Shóu, in his Pikachu form, quickly followed up with another sentence.

"Pika, Pika!" (That's right! If weren't for you, my fight would have been much harder. So thank you, Xiong Yong!)

With a smile on his face, Wang Shóu sincerely expressed his gratitude to Xiong Yong.

"Roarr!" (Wahh, Boss Lei Feng and Boss Huo Long! I-I don't deserve such a generous praise from you!)

After hearing the sentence from Huo Long and Lei Feng, Xiong Yong burst into tears.

"Pika, Pika." (There, there. No need to cry. Now let's get moving, shall we?)

Patting Xiong Yong's broad back with a smile, Wang Shóu stepped aside to let Huo Long walk beside Xiong Yong, guiding him forward as they moved.

Regarding Wang Shóu, he remained in the area where signs of fierce battle had occur just a moment ago and the dust that had obscured the scene had finally dissipated.

Surveying the area with a cold expression, Wang Shóu fixated on a small crater for a few seconds before shifting his gaze away.

With his sensitive hearing, he can clearly sense that the Flame Lion King is on the brink of death but is still alive.

Wang Shóu chose not to end Flame Lion King's life. Instead, after a brief hesitation, he quickly transformed into Clefairy.

After turning into Clefairy, Wang Shóu waved his arm to both side. 

'Life Dew'

With the wave of his arm, a small mysterious droplet of water fell on top of Flame Lion King, healing its injury by twenty-five percent. 

Provide just enough to bring Flame Lion King back from the brink of death, but still leave him seriously injured.

Although he disliked the Flame Lion King, he hadn't done anything to deserve death so far, and judging from the time, the sun will likely set soon.

As night falls, numerous dangerous spirit beasts will emerge to roam the forest, hunting for prey.

A lone Flame Lion King, a two-thousand-year-old spirit beast, who is injured will undoubtedly be considered a delicacy coveted by many other spirit beasts.

If despite all that, Flame Lion King still managed to survive, Wang Shóu can only sigh and say that Goddess of Luck really favor Flame Lion King.

In a way, it is Wang Shóu last bit of mercy left toward Flame Lion King. 

Gazing for a brief moment, Wang Shóu turned around, quickly transforming back into Pikachu, and headed towards the direction that Xiong Yong and Huo Long went.
