The giant tiger only understood tiger language and had no idea how to respond to this perverted human.
"Roar!"
The giant tiger could only let out a weak roar, which resulted in another severe beating from Ning Beichen, making it weep in misery and feel wronged.
Now, its only thought was to hope this perverted human devil would kill it quickly and stop tormenting it, as it couldn't bear it any longer.
Ning Beichen, seeing that he was about to kill the tiger, but still no sign of a Fader, felt somewhat confused.
"Did I guess wrong? Is this tiger unrelated to the Faders?"
"Forget it, I'll just slaughter it."
Ning Beichen's eyes revealed fierceness as he looked at the tiger, scaring the giant tiger into a flash of inspiration. Its survival instinct erupted, and it struggled, kowtowing to Ning Beichen.
"Huh? This tiger seems to be kowtowing and begging for mercy."
Ning Beichen was surprised.
Since it was so sincere, should he still kill it?
"I don't seem to have the heart to do it!"
Ning Beichen muttered, his thoughts fluctuating, unable to make a decision for a long time.
After all, the tiger hadn't provoked him first; they had provoked the tiger.
Just as Ning Beichen was hesitating, he saw the tiger lie down in front of him, appearing docile and obedient, as if it were a pet raised by Ning Beichen.
"Huh? Has this tiger been tamed by me? No, beaten into submission?"
Ning Beichen was so astonished his mouth gaped open.
"Brother Tiger, if you've been tamed by me, nod your head. Otherwise, I'll act."
Ning Beichen's fierce gaze reappeared, threatening the tiger.
He, Ning Beichen, would not take in a tiger that harbored ill will towards him. After all, humans don't mean to harm tigers, but tigers might intend to harm humans, unless it was truly tamed by him.
If it didn't understand his words, then he couldn't be blamed for ruthlessly slaughtering the tiger!
The giant tiger, whether it understood or not, kept nodding at Ning Beichen, afraid that if it was any slower, Ning Beichen would attack it.
"Very good. If you truly understood my words, then lie down and don't move, and let me pet your head."
Ning Beichen continued to speak to it.
Upon hearing Ning Beichen's words, the giant tiger immediately lay on the ground, utterly still.
Ning Beichen walked towards it and reached its front. The giant tiger remained lying on the ground, motionless.
Ning Beichen petted its head, finding its fur a bit rough, then tugged at its ear.
The giant tiger, with its six-meter-long body, now acted like a docile puppy, not getting angry no matter how Ning Beichen manhandled its head.
"Has this guy truly submitted?"
Ning Beichen muttered, tugging at the giant tiger's ear.
The giant tiger remained motionless, appearing obedient, allowing Ning Beichen to manhandle it.
"Do you really have no master? Like a Fader, perhaps?"
Ning Beichen asked, still fiddling with its head.
The giant tiger shook its head gently. It wished it could tell this perverted fellow verbally that it had no master and didn't know what a damned Fader was.
Unfortunately, it was a beast and couldn't speak human language.
"Then it seems I misunderstood."
Ning Beichen felt a little embarrassed, but his hand, which was petting the tiger, didn't stop.
"In that case, are you useless? Since you're useless, why am I keeping you? I heard tiger meat is a great tonic..."
Ning Beichen rambled on, causing the giant tiger to tremble. In its desperation, it actually conveyed its thoughts to Ning Beichen.
"No, don't kill me, I'm useful, I can be your mount."
A voice, like that of an infant, appeared in Ning Beichen's mind. This feeling was very magical; it wasn't speaking, yet it was better than speaking, like a transmission of brainwaves.
"Brother Tiger, are you talking to me?"
Ning Beichen asked in surprise.
"Yes."
Soon after, the giant tiger's message was transmitted to Ning Beichen again.
"You can talk to me, that's great! Then why didn't you talk to me when I asked you before?"
Ning Beichen was very excited. It was the first time he had communicated with a beast.
The giant tiger was truly speechless at this moment. It didn't know it could communicate with humans in this way. Otherwise, would it have been beaten so miserably by this perverted devil?
"Brother Tiger, do you really have no master?"
Ning Beichen became interested and began to communicate calmly with the giant tiger.
"No, no human can be my master, except for you, of course."
This time, the giant tiger's message was quickly transmitted to Ning Beichen, along with a compliment. It was evident that its intelligence was no less than that of humans.
"Then have you seen any Faders? Humans like me, who are very powerful?"
Ning Beichen asked it.
"No, I don't know what a Fader is, but you are the most powerful human I have ever seen."
The giant tiger replied.
"Is that so? In that case, you're still useless, aren't you?"
Ning Beichen looked like he was sharpening his knife.
"I'm useful, I'm useful, you can be my master, and I can be your mount."
The giant tiger frantically tried to save itself.
"Mount?"
Ning Beichen looked at its fur with some disdain.
"But you can't enter human society. With your size, if you enter human society, you'll likely cause panic. Within an hour, humans will capture you and lock you up in a zoo."
"Then I'll stay here and not go out."
The giant tiger said.
"So, here's the problem: what use are you to me if you stay here? It would be more practical to slaughter you and eat your meat."
Ning Beichen threatened it.
"Don't eat me, I... I know some things that are useful to you humans. I can take you to find them."
The giant tiger desperately tried to save itself.
"Oh? You know of something useful to us humans?"
Ning Beichen suddenly became interested.
"I know of some precious herbs for you humans, and I can take you to find them."
The giant tiger answered immediately.
"Herbs are indeed good things. Perhaps this giant tiger really knows some. After all, it lives here and can go to many places humans cannot."
Ning Beichen pondered.
Actually, he was just joking when he said he would slaughter the giant tiger; he didn't really intend to.
"Then do you know of any ancient ruins?"
Ning Beichen asked it.
The giant tiger shook its head, then nodded, saying to Ning Beichen, "I know of a very ancient cave, but those caves are very dangerous, and I dare not enter."
Ning Beichen's eyes lit up. Dangerous was good. If it weren't dangerous, he wouldn't want to go.
"Alright, if you lead me to find the herbs and the cave, then I won't slaughter you for meat."
Ning Beichen said.
The white tiger immediately wept tears of joy, finally having persuaded this perverted human devil.
