The rabbit demon beast is coming to save me…?
Learning that Xuan Hao wouldn't be the one to come and help her, but instead the cute looking rabbit demon beast that she had only encountered for a short time in the past, Yi Min couldn't help feeling an unknown sense of regret welling up inside of her.
At the same time, she also began to become curious about how strong the rabbit demon beast was for Xuan Hao to feel confident that it would be able to deal with the Soul Ascension Realm cultivators who had been harassing her over the past few weeks. After all, even if it had reached the Soul Ascension Realm, it would be difficult for it to deal with those people unless it had reached the Later Stages of the Soul Ascension Realm.
I wonder how he managed to encounter such a strong demon beast and even managed to tame it…
Realizing that the rabbit demon beast might have reached the Fourth or Fifth Tribulation of the Soul Ascension Realm, Yi Min couldn't help feeling curious as to how Xuan Hao had managed to encounter such a powerful demon beast and somehow also managed to tame it in the process. After all, taming a demon beast was far harder than killing it, even if his strength was aboe it…
"It's here…" Suddenly sensing the presence of the demon beast in question entering her kingdom a few days later, Yi Min quickly retracted her formation and allowed it to enter.
Fourth Tribulation of the Soul Ascension Realm…!
At the same time, she also managed to sense the strength of the rabbit demon beast… And although she had already expected it to have at least reached the Fourth Tribulation of the Soul Ascension Realm, she was still shocked by the fact that Xuan Hao had somehow managed to tame such a powerful demon beast.
Even when the rabbit demon beast appeared in front of her, she remained in a shocked state.
Squeak?
"Ah! My bad, I was just lost in thought for a moment. Ehm, I take it that your master already informed you about the situation?" Only after the rabbit demon beast made a sound to catch her attention did she recover before focusing her attention back on the matter at hand.

Feeling a bit weird when faced with the understanding look of the rabbit demon beast that seemed to perfectly understand everything she said, Yi Min could not help remembering an ancient text about demon beasts that she had read in the past about the fact that some demon beasts intelligence would increase along with their cultivation realm. Making them indistinguishable from humans outside of their appearance upon reaching a certain realm.
Looking at the rabbit demon beast in front of her, it seemed like it had reached this realm and was no different from a human when it came to its intelligence. Making her wonder if this had something to do with how it ended up being tamed by Xuan Hao.
Maybe it wasn't so much him taming the rabbit demon beast, but more so him recruiting the rabbit demon beast?
"Ahm, you won't have to wait too long, as those people should come knocking in another few hours. For now, you can wait in one of my pavilions and enjoy a few spirit stones while waiting for them to show up." Feeling like her thoughts were a bout to start wandering again, Yi Min quickly stopped herself as she said this while pointing towards a nearby pavilion that she had prepared beforehand.
Although she had no idea how a demon beast would normally spend its time, she knew about the fact that seemingly all demon beasts enjoyed eating spirit stones-
SQUEAK!
And looking at the excited rabbit demon beast rushing towards the pavilion she had prepared after hearing what she said, Yi Min was certain that this fact held true.
"Now… All I have to do is wait for those people to appear again…" Muttering this to herself as she once again turned her attention towards the border of her kingdom that had been under constant attack over the past few weeks, Yi Min began looking forward to being attacked.
Not just because she would finally get a chance to strike back at those people, but also because she would get a chance to see the rabbit demon beast in action. Feeling curious about the true strength of the demon beast that Xuan Hao had told her would be more than enough to deal with the Soul Ascension Realm cultivators who had been attacking her.
…
Squeak?
Arriving at the capital city of the Iron Sky Kingdom where Yi Min was located only a few seconds after passing through the formation guarding the kingdom, the rabbit demon beast tilted its head in confusion as it soon ended up face to face with the shocked Yi Min. Not understanding why, the human was staring at it with such a silly expression.
Only for to jump up surprised before starting to talk about the enemies it would have to face and… It didn't really care about any of it outside of the spirit stones it would get from helping the human in front of it-
".... you can wait in one of my pavilions and enjoy a few spirit stones while waiting for them to show up."
SQUEAK!
Or at least that was what the rabbit demon beast thought until Yi Min suddenly presented a pavilion for it to wait inside of filled to the brim with spirit stones!
Although the spirit stones were of a lower quality than the ones given by Xuan Hao, it still felt overjoyed at the large amount of spirit stones.
From a random person that it didn't really care about, Yi Min had suddenly become the second most important person outside of Xuan Hao. No matter what, the rabbit demon beast decided that it would make sure to properly deal with the pests daring to touch its spirit stone dispenser- Ehm, precious friend of its master!
Of course, Yi Min, the person in question, was completely unaware of the fact that her position had transformed to this degree in the heart of the little rabbit demon beast after giving it a few spirit stones. Instead, she was far busier making last-minute preparations for what she expected to be a final battle between her and the group of Soul Ascension Realm cultivators who had been attacking her over the past few weeks.
…
At the same time Yi Min was preparing for battle and the rabbit demon beast was indulging in the large amount of spirit stones present inside the pavilion, the group of Soul Ascension Realm cultivators who had been attacking Yi Min had gathered together not too far away from the border of the Iron Sky Kingdom.
"I wonder how long that woman will be able to hold out. At least with our continuous attack, it shouldn't be for more than a week at most."
"What about the Star Shattering Sect behind her? Isn't it said that they have another Soul Ascension Realm cultivator?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Hmph! What do you know? I looked into it and it's just someone who recently broke through to the Soul Ascension Realm. Nothing for us to worry about! To be honest, I'm quite surprised that someone at the Third Tribulation of the Soul Ascension Realm would choose to join such a sect."
"Indeed… Let's get ready to attack again today, everyone should have recovered, and we don't want to give that woman enough time to repair her formation! Who knows, we might even be able to successfully break the formation this time around…"
As the group finished talking among each other about their next attack, they didn't waste any time as they rushed towards the Iron Sky Kingdom a short distance away.
Looking at the group in full, there were five people at the First Tribulation of the Soul Ascension Realm and one at the Second Tribulation of the Soul Ascension Realm.
Although none of them had stated their identity to the others, it was obvious that every single one of them came from an empire that was looking for an opportunity to take advantage of the chaos in the now fallen Sky Empire to extract some of the precious cultivation resources for themselves. In their case, they had decided to target spiritual metal deposits located below the Iron Sky Kingdom.
None of them feared a possible retaliation by Yi Min or the Star Shattering Sect behind her, as their empires were more than strong enough to deal with two Soul Ascension Realm cultivators. Especially considering that Yi Min and the Star Shattering Sect had no idea about their identity and who to seek revenge on in the future even if they wanted to!
Whoosh-!
Whoosh-!
Whoosh-!
It was with this confident mindset that the group of Soul Ascension Realm cultivators once again arrived at the border of the Iron Sky Kingdom.
"Haha! We are here again! Just give up and- Huh?"
Squeak?
However, different from the past where Yi Min would be ready to face them the moment they appeared, they instead found themselves face to face with a rather cute looking rabbit…
