Wasting Money to Become an Immortal-Chapter 248: Coward

The next day, we set off after saying goodbye to the monkeys.

Even though we had drank the monkey wine into the night, there was no hangover the next day.

This wine really was a good wine that didn’t cause the person who drank it to have a hangover.

It was a good thing that I asked for a bit more or else who knows when I would be able to get some more.

With us was the little monkey who was waving goodbye to the other monkeys, but it didn’t seem like they were waving back to it. It almost seemed like they were happy to get rid of this little monkey, which made me feel very strange.

But the good thing was that I had convinced the little monkey to wear the ring.

Simply put, I had bribed it to put it on.

It was actually quite cheap, just five peaches was enough for me to convince it to put it on. It was almost too easy how the little monkey allowed the ring to be put on its head.

Since it was the ring that could squeeze when directed, it was able to change its size and fit the little monkey’s head without any problems.

It didn’t seem like there would be a problem, but I could guess what the problem would be.

It was most likely related to how the ring would affect the little monkey.

If I had to guess, it was very likely that the ring didn’t have any effect on the little monkey...

But for now, there was nothing that could be done about this.

So we headed deeper into the Myriad Beast Valley with the little monkey by our side.

It didn’t take long before we ran into a spirit beast.

This spirit beast didn’t run away when it saw us because this wasn’t a weak spirit beast.

The monkey mountain was quite deep into the Myriad Beast Valley in the first place, so the spirit beasts that were around there weren’t that weak. Now that we had gone even deeper than the monkey mountain, it wasn’t strange that even stronger spirit beasts were showing up.

These spirit beasts didn’t fear our group and attacked without any hesitation.

When that happened, I just simply threw out the little monkey at this spirit beast.

One might think that I was abusing the little monkey by throwing it out against a tiger spirit beast like this, but it really wasn’t that.

Even if it looked like I was throwing the little monkey as bait for the large tiger, the little monkey was actually capable of beating the tiger.

After all, it was in the Peak Core Refining Realm just like me while this tiger was only in the Low Core Refining Realm.

In terms of power and cultivation, they should be on completely different levels.

It was just that...the little monkey didn’t seem interested in fighting at all.

In fact, after it was thrown out, it quickly called out the cloud to land on.

Once it landed on the cloud, it immediately flew up into the air where the tiger wouldn’t be able to reach it and then just laid down on the cloud.

All of us had three lines on our faces when we saw this, but I took action by pointing at the little monkey and...shooting out a bolt of lightning. As I shot the bolt of lightning that scattered the cloud, making it fall down, I said, "Fight or you won’t get dinner!"

The little monkey looked at me like I had betrayed it once again, but this time...it at least swung its stick at the tiger.

It seemed like it was attacking the tiger, but really it wasn’t able to do anything to it.

It seemed that this was a niche character that had invested all of its stats in speed rather than power, so the stick that it swung was only annoying the tiger rather than hurting it.

Once the tiger’s annoyance reached a peak, it suddenly gave a roar.

"ROAR!"

The little monkey trembled when it heard this roar before suddenly running back towards me. There was no hesitation in its movements at all as it suddenly went behind me to hide.

It peeked its head out from behind me to look at the tiger, but it quickly brought its head back like it was afraid of the tiger.

That was because...it was.

It was a little monkey, so there was an inherent fear of large predators like this tiger even if it was stronger than the tiger.

Unbalanced stats and this kind of terrible personality...

There was no doubt that there was a lot that was wrong with this little monkey... 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Since it didn’t seem like it was possible to force this little monkey to fight, there was only one thing to do.

I raised my hand and gathered the lightning law at the tip of my fingers.

Then I suddenly pointed it at the tiger and shot out a bolt of lightning right at its head.

The tiger’s body trembled when the electricity ran through it before it suddenly collapsed onto the ground. However, the tiger was still breathing even though it lay there on the ground.

I wasn’t planning on taking this tiger back with me, so it wasn’t as if I was going to kill it for no reason.

It would be a waste of natural resources and there was no need for me to kill everything that I saw.

Not to mention...I didn’t want to kill it after seeing the way that it fought the monkey.

I had a completely different plan for this tiger.

I gave a nod to Gao Fu Shuai who went over to collect the tiger while I turned my attention to the monkey who was behind me.

Or at least it should have been behind me, but it had jumped out to where the tiger was lying down on the ground unconscious.

Without any ceremony, the little monkey raised its foot and stepped on the tiger’s face.
