Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 131 - 132: Thundercat Jei
To protect the Northern Territory and resist the frontline invasion of the Abyssal Demons, the Marquis family naturally has some hidden cards. Otherwise, if a real Demon King-level attack occurs, it would undoubtedly be impossible for Xiumu, a Sword Saint, to repel the Demon King’s existence.
The trump card of the Marquis family is the Guardian Beast, the Thundercat, which signed an alliance contract with them hundreds of years ago. This beast possesses the power of a Rank 8 Holy Beast.
--
At this moment, in a quiet forest behind the Marquis family’s cemetery, a giant beast with a pitch-black body and covered in purple thunder patterns lay leisurely on the grass. It enjoyed the delicious delicacies prepared by the Marquis family.
’Meow~’
So comfortable~
After swallowing a fish that was about two meters long, the Thundercat scratched its head contentedly.
Then, the four-legged giant beast named Thundercat pierced a fish with its claws, accompanied by the release of a slight thunderbolt. In an instant, the fish was roasted to a crispy outside and tender inside.
Dipped in some sauce, Thundercat threw the fish into its mouth and delightfully enjoyed the tantalizing flavors.
’As expected, it’s tastier after being roasted.’
...
While enjoying the delicious food, Thundercat lazily patted the ground, looking around the comfortable living environment with deep emotions. The days of food and clothes coming effortlessly now were a far cry from the days when it could not fill its stomach in the harsh winter forest.
Each time it enjoyed good food, Thundercat couldn’t help but feel gratitude in its heart.
’My decision was truly correct.’
No one would want to stay in the Winter Forest!
More than three hundred years ago, when it was still a young chieftain of the Thunder Beast Clan, it couldn’t stand the oppression of the Abyssal Demons any longer. Although it had an independent habitat in the eastern part of the forest due to Lady Yumo’s guidance, it still essentially lived a life of dependence.
At that time, as a Holy Rank magical beast (equal 7th tire expert), it would have been revered as a ruler if it were outside. But in the Winter Forest? A Rank 5 Abyssal Demon dared to steal its food?! And if it tried to resist, Lady Yumo might not say anything, but those little Demon King ancestors would directly beat it up...
In this way, even though it was a Holy Rank creature, it sometimes couldn’t even eat its fill and had to endure constant humiliation!
Therefore, three hundred years ago, after being brutally beaten by that terrifying woman called ’Inferno’, it chose to leave home! To escape from the Thunder Beast Clan and the entire Winter Forest! Fortunately, the heavens seemed to favor it, and ’Inferno,’ who had been watching the magical beast herd, seemed to be preoccupied with taking care of her sister during that time.
Seizing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, after experiencing numerous trials and tribulations, Thundercat escaped the Winter Forest!
This was arguably the most correct decision it had ever made in its life!
After leaving the Winter Forest, Thundercat(Jei) immediately gained the fear of other magical beasts! And The humans outside, because of its Holy Rank strength, were equally respectful to it! Life had become incomparably better! For a moment, Jei’s heart was enveloped with ecstasy, after all, it would no longer have to live under the tyranny of the Abyssal Demons!
After wandering for a few years, it signed an alliance contract with the Marquis family and began to enjoy its laid-back, comfortable days.
Actually,
According to the contract, the Marquis family provided for its needs, and in return, it was to protect the family in times of need or fight against the invasion of abyssal demons alongside them. However, it wasn’t worried about battling the abyssal demons at all,
After all, having lived in the Great Winter Forest for so long, it was well aware that Lord Yumo would not send a large-scale attack, and even if there was one, those Demon King-level creatures wouldn’t come out.
This deal was a sure win!
Hehehe~
And so,
After signing the alliance contract, it began to enjoy centuries of blissful, homebound life~
--
Although it had stayed at home for so long, it didn’t neglect its cultivation. With the help of some medicines provided by the Marquis family, the already talented Jei quickly broke through to the eighth level, becoming a top-notch powerful beast in the continent~
Life became more and more pleasant,
Until half a month ago,
The large-scale invasion of abyssal demons and the appearance of Snow Devourer almost scared it to death,
Even though it was now at the eighth level, having been a homebody for so long, it didn’t have the confidence to confront a Demon King-level existence. Fortunately, the abyssal demons eventually retreated, and it was relieved as it was just forced out, ready to enter the battlefield, and it hurriedly returned to its homebound life.
However,
At the moment, while eating fish, it began to ponder its life as a beast,
Come to think of it,
Since the abyssal demons were invading now,
Did that mean the Demons Temple changed their strategy? If so, would it be better to leave the North and try my luck in the South? After all, I don’t want to risk its life fighting Demon King-level demons~
Nevertheless,
After thinking about it, it couldn’t help but reveal a conflicted look,
No matter what,
i don’t really like the weather in the South, and i don’t want to give up its current comfortable life with the Marquis family~ After all, whether the abyssal demons would come or not was still an unknown~
’Huh?’
As it pondered its path as a beast, two strange auras suddenly intruded into its territory, causing the powerful eighth-level beast to show a fierce, murderous glare,
’Who is it? Who dares to intrude into my territory?!’
In an instant,
Driven by the instinct to expel intruders,
It transformed into a purple lightning bolt and rushed to the edge of the forest! Its overwhelming aura, accompanied by earth-shaking lightning, spread wildly from its center, causing those outside the forest to reveal uneasy expressions.
The next moment,
Under the complicated gazes of the people outside, a nearly ten-meter tall, fearsome beast exuding strong purple lightning appeared before them! The terrifying oppressive aura, with the appearance of Thundercat, rapidly spread, and weighed heavily on everyone’s shoulders like a mountain,
There were already dozens of people from the Marquis family who had come to the guardian beast’s territory,
However,
Regarding those who hadn’t stepped into its territory, Thundercat chose to ignore them. Its fierce gaze focused on two figures not far away - the ones who had trespassed into its territory! As an eighth-level magical beast, it had its dignity,
Its territory must not be violated!
Humans outside the Marquis family would be expelled without hesitation if they entered.
At this moment,
The white-haired man stepped forward respectfully and said,
"Guardian Beast, please help us verify the identity of this young lady, Xia’er."
Hearing this, Thundercat’s deep purple eyes narrowed slightly,
Hmm?
Xiumu?
Looking at the familiar white-haired middle-aged man, it couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. The patriarch of the Mrquis family and its partner wouldn’t be attacked by it as long as they didn’t show hostility or provoke it intentionally. The problem was, the little girl next to Xiumu...
Staring at the timid pink-haired girl beside Xiumu,
Thundercat’s face turned fierce,
Although the little girl looked strikingly similar to Yuan’er and Xia’er, Thundercat, with its extraordinary sensing ability, could instantly feel the uniqueness of her aura. Combined with Xiumu’s previous question, it suddenly understood the ’cause of the matter’.
’Probably, some ignorant fool was impersonating Xia’er, trying to infiltrate the Marquis family, huh?’
Hehe,
To dare appear before me,
And furthermore,
This aura,

Feeling the strong ebony fragrance on the pink-haired girl’s clothes, Thundercat’s murderous intent in its eyes became increasingly dense. After all, it despised the smell of ebony. Not only did they dare to impersonate a member of the Marquis family, but they also dared to bring this odor to meet me?!
What a death wish! Since you seek death, I will send you on your way!
Enraged, the thunderous power surrounding Thundercat suddenly surged!
The giant beast opened its massive mouth and roared earth-shatteringly at the pink-haired girl!
"ROOOOAAAARRRR!!!"
In the next moment, under the horrified gazes of most people, Thundercat transformed into a bolt of lightning and charged murderously toward the pink-haired girl!
Seeing this unexpected scene,
The Marquis Xiumu, who stood beside the girl, turned pale and hurriedly tried to intervene,
Unfortunately,
A Saint-level existence like him couldn’t possibly stop the eighth-level Thundercat,
Although it was unclear why the Guardian Beast would suddenly unleash its fury, the death of the little girl seemed to be a foregone conclusion. Some timid people even closed their eyes, unable to bear witnessing the bloody scene.
However,
Just as Thundercat’s sharp claws were about to make contact with the girl,
The eyes of this thunderous giant beast suddenly narrowed,
Because as it got closer to the girl, it suddenly noticed some presences that could scare it to death, like the blood-colored butterfly on the girl’s collar...
Hmm?
Eh?
What?!
What the heck?!
A butterfly? A blood-patterned butterfly?! A Blood Butterfly?!!
...
...
I’m F@ked!!!
