chapter 12 Level 5 Snow Lion Cub

Ethan Sigeweard felt his scalp numb. He had broken through to the Peak-stage Warrior, and his soul power had become much stronger. However, he was too excited just now and did not notice the figure behind him.
When the danger from behind approached, Ethan instinctively turned forward and performed a somersault.
With a sound of bang, the stone Ethan was sitting on suddenly exploded. It was conceivable that if he hadn't dodged in time, this blow would have killed half of his life.
"Little Witch, what are you doing?" Ethan was furious and looked coldly at the weak figure in front of him. Obviously, it was the Little Witch who had just attacked him.
"You're a scoundrel! You're a scoundrel! You're a scum! I'm going to kill you!" The Little Witch gritted her teeth and looked at Ethan, crying as she spoke.
Ethan was dark all over his face and thought in his mind, "I had done nothing to you. Why are you crying?"
"Okay, don't cry. I didn't do anything to you. I just looked at you." Ethan said impatiently. The Little Witch obviously has a hot temper, which was related to her identity.
"You bastard, you damn bastard!" The Little Witch yelled angrily, walking towards Ethan with a desperate look, but because her injury had not yet recovered, it was very difficult to walk.
"Why have I become a bastard? I'm here to save you, okay, just for a look, there's no missing piece of meat!"
"Stinking rogue!"
"I know now that good people don't get rewarded. If it were another person, I would probably cross you first and then oo. There are very few good people like me."
"Damn gangster!"
"You have the strength now, right? Let's go. Don't expect me to carry you. I don't want to be attacked by someone."
"Who wants you to carry me? Get away!"
…
The two seemed to be natural enemies, and they kept arguing when they met. Ethan finally got tired and was too lazy to continue arguing with her.
The family annual meeting was getting closer and closer, and staying in the Sunset Mountain Range no longer meant much to Ethan. He couldn't hunt down the fourth-order soul beast, and killing the third-ranked Soul Beast was not enough for him to continue to break through.
After walking for a long time, the Little Witch finally got tired. Ethan had no choice but to stop and rest for a while.
"You stinky scoundrel, I'm hungry." The Little Witch looked at Ethan pitifully. After getting along with him for a long time, the Little Witch found that Ethan didn't seem as hateful as she thought. But after saying this, she felt a little... I regretted it and said in my heart: "How could I beg him? He is a stinky hooligan! I just begged him because I was hungry. When I recover from my injuries, I must make him look good."
"Don't look at me like that. I'm just going to find something to eat. You'd better not run around, otherwise you'll be used as food by the spirit beast. I won't pay attention to you anymore." Ethan glared at the Little Witch and said, "Just like this, she looks a bit like a woman."
"Humph, you damn gangster, I am a woman." The Little Witch blushed with anger. Unfortunately, Ethan had disappeared. The Little Witch couldn't help but add, "Humph, you don't show any pity to her at all!"
Ethan walked in the jungle, searching for low-level soul beasts. After these days of experience, he was able to walk without making any sound.
"William, you have to remember, the next second-level peak soul stone is mine." Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the front, Ethan quickly stopped and carefully hid in the bushes.
More than ten meters away, there were about a dozen figures, four of whom Ethan had seen before, namely William Swanson, James Leyton, and the two men from Longstaff City. The others were all servants of the Longstaff Family.
Ethan's expression condensed, and he had a bad premonition in his heart. He pondered, "How come the Swanson Family and the Leyton Family got together with the Longstaff Family in Longstaff City?"
"Don't worry, I, William, have always been a stickler for words!" Before he could figure it out, William's cold voice sounded.
"Hey, you two. What time is it now? Why are you still fighting over this trivial matter?" The burly man from the Longstaff Family raised his eyebrows and said angrily.
"David, don't stand there without pain in your back. If you don't have the third-ranked Soul Crystal, can you break through to the Battle Master realm?" James said sarcastically, not taking the burly man David seriously at all.
"James, don't forget that it was your Leyton Family and Swanson Family who asked my Longstaff Family to help. Without my Longstaff Family, it would be a dream for you to get the Snow Lion cubs!" Before David could speak, Daniel was immediately unhappy.
"Snow Lion cub?" Ethan, who was hiding in the bushes, narrowed his pupils and almost shouted. Are these three major families united together to seize the Snow Lion cub?
It was known that the Snow Lion was a five-ranked soul beast. Once it grew up, it was equivalent to a Battle Ancestor like existence. Looking at the entire Sigeweard City and Longstaff City, there was no strong person at the Battle Ancestor level.
If the Swanson Family and the Leyton Family really got it, how would the Sigeweard family's status in Sigeweard City be able to speak of in the future?
"We must not let them get it!" Ethan said in a deep voice. He was deeply afraid of being discovered by a few people. He held his breath and listened carefully with his ears raised.
"Forget it, our task is to clean up the surrounding soul beasts, and we will more or less get some second-order or third-order Soul Crystal. What we have to do now is to wait for the elders of the family to lure the Snow Lion away. The three of us People are going to sneak into the Snow Lion's lair. There will be at least three Snow Lion cubs this time, and each of us can just hold one and leave." David broke the deadlock.
"What if there are more than three?" James was a little reluctant.
"I don't care if there are more than three. My Longstaff Family only wants one." David's eyes were very calm, but he was sneering in his heart.
"My Swanson Family only wants one." William said without hesitation. His intention was obvious. If the number does not exceed three, he, William, must have one.
"Okay, then it's settled. If there are less than three, they belong to you. If there are more than three, the rest belong to my Leyton Family." James also smiled heartily, and the three of them finally reached a simple agreement.
As for what the three of them are thinking about, it was still unknown.
A moment later, there were rustling sounds in the distance, and a dozen figures came out. When they came to William and the others, they were divided into three groups.
Ethan could feel the powerful aura on these people, and they were all in the realm of Battle Master. From the blood stains on their bodies, it could be seen that they were also cleaning up the Third-ranked Soul Beast around them.
Ethan finally understood why he had seen so many Third-ranked Soul Beast in the past few days. He must have been expelled by them, all just for the fifth-level soul beast Snow Lion cub.
Phew!
Suddenly, a sharp sound burst out in the sky, and brilliant fireworks bloomed in the sky. Everyone looked at the fireworks with a bright smile on their faces.
"It's time, let's go." James was very excited and walked forward first. William and David frowned and quickly followed.
Seeing everyone leaving, Ethan was very hesitant. With his own strength, he could not be the opponent of the three major families, not even the breakthrough Battle Master.
For the five-ranked Snow Lion cub, the Battle Maestro warriors from the three major families may have mobilized, and he was still just a little Battle Warrior.
Thinking of this, Ethan shook his head helplessly, but when he was about to stand up, his shoulders seemed to be electrocuted. This frightened Ethan so much that he reached out and slapped his hand without hesitation.
