Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1478: Chapter 1458: Training in the Forest (Part 2)

Luo Qianqian kicked up hard against the Illusory Tiger’s fur. The force was so strong that the hem of her pants flared up, directly pinning...

...her shoe to the Illusory Tiger’s body. She quickly withdrew her foot, standing on one leg and staring at the shoe on the Illusory Tiger with a face full of astonishment.

A hint of smugness flickered across the Illusory Tiger’s face, clearly pleased with itself for having outwitted Luo Qianqian.

”Doesn’t this count as cheating? With built-in armor?” Luo Qianqian pouted—even if the other side couldn’t understand her—and took out another pair of shoes to change into, her expression now serious.

Did it have fine needles under its fur that could hold shoes in place? The thought was terrifying; if she’d used her fist instead of her foot...

Her scalp tingled at the realization that she had underestimated the opponent the Little White Snake had found for her. Being their first encounter, it was understandable not to fully understand.

Self-consoling, yet the Illusory Tiger wasn’t having it.

”Roar!”

Unhappy with the shoe still on its body, it leapt forward, its heavy powerful paws stomping towards Luo Qianqian.

Feeling the forceful stomp and the angry look in its eyes, Luo Qianqian didn’t dare be careless. Ice Stab was summoned in an instant, targeted at its paw while she quickly took a few steps back, out of the Illusory Tiger’s attack range.

”Crrrack!”

The sound of the Ice Stab shattering left a tinge of astonishment on Luo Qianqian’s face, while the Illusory Tiger was more than shocked to feel the stinging pain in its paw—was it really hurt?

Looking at Luo Qianqian, enraged, with a gleam of murderous intent in its eyes—it was truly injured?

Feeling the murderous aura emanating from the Illusory Tiger, Luo Qianqian became more cautious, slowly retreating and circling with the Illusory Tiger, a small bow appearing in her hand seemingly by chance.

The next second, Luo Qianqian suddenly froze, seeing Tang Tianyi and He Wenyu hugging each other appear before her eyes.

He Wenyu, holding Tang Tianyi’s arm, smiled faintly at her, ”Qhianqhian, you’ll bless us, right? I’m your best friend; you wouldn’t prioritize love over friendships like I did, would you?”

Tang Tianyi smiled down at He Wenyu, then lifted his head, revealing a tender smile: ”Qhianqhian, the one I like is Xiao Yu, so, I’m sorry, I can’t be with you.”

The two embraced in front of her, Luo Qianqian fuming, murmuring softly, ”...Bewilder me all you want, but dare to slander my best friend and boyfriend? Watch how I handle this!”

With that, she raised the small bow, closed her eyes, condensing Qi into arrows, and shot decisively in one direction.

Meanwhile, the Illusory Tiger sent a Qi Blade towards Luo Qianqian, targeting the bell on her ankle.

”Boom!”

A flash of white light, and both figures were sent flying backwards, Luo Qianqian crashed through two trees before stopping, fell to the ground in a sorry state, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth. The impact loosening the scab on her back wound made her grit her teeth and, after some time, she propped herself up with a tree branch.

As Luo Qianqian stood up, the Illusory Tiger too looked at Luo Qianqian with furious eyes, a few angry red flickers appearing in its dark eyes, intensely glaring at her—now it was truly angry, being attacked in the Illusionary Realm?

His Illusion presents scenarios intended to deeply provoke, meant to reveal scenarios that would infuriate and sadden the recipient.

Yet Luo Qianqian apparently wasn’t bewildered by the Illusion, which made it feel humiliated.

Now opening its maw wide, letting out a giant roar, like a car accelerating with failing brakes, it charged towards Luo Qianqian.

Feeling the murderous battle intent, Luo Qianqian was even more enraged—daring to slander her friends? Truly courting death!

Without hesitation, she lifted her head, squinted, bent her legs slightly, and leapt onto a branch.

Tigers don’t climb trees; that’s something she remembered from stories as a child.

”If you’re so capable, come up! Need me to get Mr. Black Cat to give you a lesson?” Luo Qianqian taunted from atop the branch, face full of disdain and arrogance: ”Your Illusion isn’t even real compared to Exotic Beast’s realms, okay?”

Having experienced Exotic Beast Illusions, how could Luo Qianqian fear this kind of Illusion?

Moreover, believing in such things would be disrespectful to He Wenyu and Tang Tianyi, right?

As her best friend, He Wenyu would never have any relationship with Tang Tianyi.

As her boyfriend, Tang Tianyi would naturally never engage with her best friend in such a familiar manner.

If she believed such things, she might as well eviscerate herself in front of them!

Yet in the next moment, Luo Qianqian saw a large face right in front of her, with bared sharp teeth, and she toppled off the branch head first. Luckily, the Illusory Tiger bit onto her belt.

The Illusory Tiger bit her, setting her down, and carelessly plucking the Red Silk Bell.

Luo Qianqian glared furiously: ”Is what I learned fake? Why can this tiger climb trees???”

The Illusory Tiger leisurely played with the little bell, looking curiously at the conspicuous ’1’ on the bell.

Lord Little White Dragon said with ten of these they could exchange for Old White Dragon Lord’s guidance, as well as for elixirs, Inner Pills, and Crystal Cores; these things are really useful...

But Lord Little White Dragon also said they couldn’t hurt this human.

”You’re lucky you only met a tree-climbing tiger.” Yan emerged from the woods, looking disheveled and visibly bloodied: ”Do you know what my opponent was?”

”What?” Luo Qianqian looked at Yan, also climbing up slowly, secretly grateful to not have long hair, especially seeing Yan’s noticeably jagged hair...

”A pair of Black Panthers! One attack, one defense!” A pair! They were a pair! And cooperated seamlessly!

The wound on his back still throbbed...

The Little White Snake spiraled out, seeing Luo Qianqian unharmed, nodded contentedly at the Illusory Tiger, which was ecstatic knowing it was right not to let the human fall!

As for Yan and the others? The Little White Snake hadn’t specifically said they shouldn’t get hurt.

So one was more disheveled than the other...

”Mo is still going strong, the Huangfu Brothers went to rest; you’re the least injured.” Yan couldn’t help but shake his head, having come out of concern for Luo Qianqian, since Luo Qianqian was still injured.

The Little White Snake wagged its tail proudly, naturally, as it was said that if Luo Qianqian were injured again, his home would be emptied by her! It couldn’t give Luo Qianqian any opportunity for extortion.

The Illusory Tiger was among the five Spiritual Beasts in their battle, with the highest cultivation level, but due to the Little White Snake’s prior warning, it had forcibly suppressed its cultivation level to a very low level.
