Threatening with a Life

2/27/2026

Mira Ming shook her head after her aunt told her to leave. "My father told me to leave before, too, but he hasn't been heard from since. I won't abandon you."

"Silly girl, if you leave now, you'll have a chance to find your father. As for me, I have my own ways to escape." Mira Ming's aunt said.

"But..." Mira Ming still hesitated, but her aunt continued, "Your father entrusted the Demon Tiger to me so I could remove the control ability placed on it. I'm already working on it. In a little while, that controlled power will disappear, and these people won't be able to contain the Demon Tiger. The Demon Tiger will come find me on its own, and then I'll take it to look for your father."

"Are you telling the truth?" Mira Ming asked suspiciously.

Her aunt nodded. "Of course it's true. Now hurry up and leave, and be quick about it."

"Alright, then." Mira Ming finished speaking, and led Liam Yang away through the secret passage.

After a while, Mira Ming's aunt saw the protective barrier failing. She flew into the air, and everyone only saw a flash in the sky as the person who flew out vanished, leaving no trace of anyone nearby.

"What happened?" Tian Tian asked suspiciously, seeing a sudden explosion inside the protective formation, with nothing left behind.

"No idea." Mira Ming replied, also confused.

Tian Tian frowned. Logically, Liam Yang and the others shouldn't have left, so why was there no sign of them? They had even had people surround the area, and except for that flash, nothing else escaped.

"Damn it, they got away again!" Tian Tian said angrily.

"Young Lord Tian, I think we should head back. Let me study my Demon Tiger carefully—I have a way to find them." Xu Zhi said at this moment.

"Oh? Why?" Tian Tian asked curiously.

"My Demon Tiger recovered by eating that kid's blood, so it still carries his aura. If I use a secret art, I can track him down." Xu Zhi explained.

"Good, excellent. Let's do that." Tian Tian smiled.

Liam Yang had no idea Xu Zhi had such an ability. He was still on the mountain with Mira Ming, discussing things.

"Where do you think my father went?" Mira Ming asked.

Liam Yang shook his head. "I don't know."

"Now I've lost contact with my aunt, too. Suddenly I feel so useless." Mira Ming sighed.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Seeing Mira Ming so lost, Liam Yang silently called out to Evan Yang several times, hoping his father would appear and help them both.

"Kid, I've been waiting for you for ages. You finally walked right in." At that moment, laughter sounded—Xander Xu was the speaker.

Liam Yang hadn't expected Xander Xu and his group to be here, and Terry Tian was there too.

"Don't forget, the Demon Tiger ate your blood, so I can naturally track your aura." Xander Xu laughed.

Xander Xu chuckled, "Today you're not getting away. Just be obedient and come back to me."

"Old Xander, what's so good about this guy? Let me teach him a lesson first, then hand him over when I'm done." Terry Tian said, still holding a grudge against Liam Yang.

Xander Xu was worried Liam Yang's body might get damaged, so he quickly said, "No way! His body is like a super tonic. If it gets ruined, it'd be a waste."

"A super tonic? With a body like his?" Terry Tian sneered.

"That's right. My Demon Tiger eating his blood is like eating tens of thousands of times the effect of other people's blood—maybe even hundreds of thousands. There's no way to estimate it." Xander Xu said.
