Young Noble Be Monster Slaying

At this moment, the sky above the Boundary Marker Mountain looked like a scene from a painting of ancient gods and devils.

A giant inferno devil stood tall on the ancient desolate mountain.

He was about to raise his feet and stomp on the enemy in front.

But a gigantic gray and white mountain appeared above the inferno giant.

Wait…No! It was not a mountain but a massive elephant.

It was a giant elephant, nearly as tall as the Boundary Marker Mountain itself. Its entire body was covered in countless gruesome scars and ancient patterns, and its skin was as thick as the city walls. The eyes on its massive head exuded calmness. However, its most striking features were its long trunk and tusks, which resembled towering polearms.

It was a Mammothdagon[1]!

In ancient times, this creature was also called the Draconic Elephant. To differentiate this creature from the mammoths in the Northern Regions and the giant elephants in the Southern Regions, it was renamed as the Mammothdagon.

It was one of the few draconic descents capable of fighting True Dragons at the same realm. If it wasn’t because the Mammothdagon found the Great Dao difficult to understand, it would have become on par with pure-blooded True Dragons!

This Draconic Elephant was so massive that when Chu Liang looked up, he felt as if the sky had darkened.

Chu Liang seemed tiny next to the Mammothdagon, and the same was true for the inferno giant. In fact, the size difference between the Mammothdagon and the inferno giant was even greater than the difference between Chu Liang and the giant.

When the Mammothdagon stomped down, it was as if the sky had collapsed onto the inferno giant!

Boom—

As it stomped its foot down, it felt as though a mountain had overturned, causing the earth to tremble!

At that moment, Yang Hong had only one thought: Where did this mammoth come from...

Why did this thing fall from the sky?

The surging waves of qi sent flames splashing, sweeping Chu Liang away and flinging him hundreds of zhang. He barely managed to stabilize himself upon landing.

Bang, bang, bang—

Immediately after, the Mammothdagon's remaining three pillar-like legs landed, causing another round of earth-shaking tremors.

As the Mammothdagon stood on the Boundary Marker Mountain, it seemed as if one mountain had been stacked atop another.

Chu Liang stood there in a daze, feeling somewhat bewildered.

Everything that had just happened was overwhelming, leaving him feeling confused.

It was said that ancient draconic elephants had become exceedingly rare over the ages, with only one known to remain in the world today. This majestic creature belonged to the beast-taming sect known as Thunderbolt Stronghold. The sect's master entrusted it to his most beloved daughter for her protection.

Wait...

Chu Liang suddenly remembered in The Seven Stars Gazette that the daughter of the Thunderbolt Stronghold's master was named Huang Ling'er?

Could it be?

Just as this thought crossed his mind, Miss Ling'er, who had recently departed, descended from the giant elephant on the back of a large black dog, just as Chu Liang had expected. As she landed, she asked, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine," Chu Liang said, looking at the young girl, his gaze still filled with surprise, "This... this Mammothdagon..."

"Ah..." Miss Ling'er's eyes sparkled as she glanced to the side and said, "I was just thinking of getting reinforcements to save you when I happened to run into it on the way. I asked if it would be willing to help, and it said yes..."

"Heh," Chu Liang chuckled, "It truly is a helpful mammoth."

"Oh, there's no time to chatter anymore," Miss Ling'er said hurriedly, glancing towards the distant sky. "I saved your life, didn't I?"

"I suppose..." Chu Liang nodded.

"Since I've done you a huge favor, you must do me one in return," Ling'er said. "If someone asks about my whereabouts, just say I headed east. Got it?"

"Hmm?" Chu Liang momentarily puzzled, but he nodded nonetheless.

"Then, until we meet again."

With that, Miss Ling'er mounted her big dog again and sped westward, transforming into a gust of black wind.

"Hey—" Chu Liang quickly called out.

You're just going to leave this big guy here? From Yang Hong's perspective, this would count as a hit-and-run.

He looked up at Mammothdagon, a creature resembling a mountain in its sheer size. It seemed just as curious about him, lowering its massive head to gaze at him with emerald-green eyes that shimmered like a lively, gleaming lake, brimming with life.

Chu Liang swallowed nervously.

Even though it appeared friendly, the pressure it gave off was overwhelming.

It didn't matter if they were a prodigy of a diabolical sect. This creature would just finish them off with one stomp!

No matter what, Yang Hong, being in the Form of the Heavens and the Earth, could not dodge that stomp, which meant that it was likely a ruthless and instant kill.

As the giant creature stared at him, the atmosphere grew increasingly awkward. Chu Liang found himself at a loss for how to communicate with it. Communication with his own mount, the Golden-Furred Hou, was much easier. To be treated as a master by the Golden-Furred Hou, all he had to do was feed it well.

As Chu Liang thought of this, he took out a berry and held it up.

"Want some?"

…

A short while later, Chu Liang had formed a friendly bond with the giant beast.

The Mammothdagon lay on the ground with its mouth open and eyes half-closed in comfort while Chu Liang kept feeding it Golden Vein Berries one by one. If he slowed down, the mammoth would squint slightly in displeasure.

It easily swallowed each berry, as if they were pebbles dropped into water.

After a while, a thundercloud descended from the distant sky, and a tall, anxious young man landed nearby.

The approaching man wore dark, tight-fitting clothes. With tanned skin, thick eyebrows, and large, bright eyes, he looked at Chu Liang with a puzzled expression and asked, "Where is my little junior sister?"

Chu Liang glanced at him as he shook his head and replied, "Brother, are you looking for someone?"

The tall young man pointed at the Mammothdagon and asked, "This is my junior sister's mount. Why are you the only one here?"

"Oh. You mean this mammoth..." Chu Liang said. Then, realizing something, he asked, "Are you searching for Miss Ling'er?"

"Yes," the tall young man said with a nod. "I am Wei Tiandi of the Thunderbolt Stronghold. My little junior sister disappeared two days ago, and our entire sect has been searching for her. She suddenly summoned her mount, so I traced it here... Why are you the only one here?"

"So, Miss Ling'er is indeed from the Thunderbolt Stronghold." Chu Liang nodded, "I wasn't aware of her identity; we just had some business interactions in Taotie City. Just now, I was attacked by a member of a diabolical sect, and Miss Ling'er summoned this Mammothdagon to help me defeat an enemy. But she left in a hurry right after."

Her stories about her father being dead, her mother being sick, and her brother studying were clearly lies. She was just a second-generation immortality cultivator who had run away from home.

Why is it that second-generation immortality cultivators always seem to enjoy playing these games?

Last time, he encountered the siblings from the Ji Family, who were competing with each other as runaways. Could it be that families known to cultivate immortality were unable to provide their children with enough love?

Chu Liang had naturally heard of Wei Tiandi's reputation as the second-ranked core disciple of the Thunderbolt Stronghold, renowned for his wit and bravery.

"Which way did she go?" Wei Tiandi asked.

Chu Liang was about to raise his hand to indicate the direction when he suddenly asked, "How can you prove that you are Wei Tiandi? This concerns Miss Ling'er's safety, so I need to be sure."

Without wasting any words, Wei Tiandi raised his hand, causing a sharp whistle to echo from the distant sky as a bolt of lightning struck down.

In an instant, a large turtle with dark purple markings appeared before him. Its limbs and head protruding from the shell were robust, and its eyes gleamed with fierceness. It was very different from ordinary turtles.

"If you've heard of my name, you should know this Purple-Lightning Divine Turtle," Wei Tiandi said.

Chu Liang nodded.

This divine turtle was indeed distinctive. While most people's impression of turtles was their slow pace, this Purple-Lightning Divine Turtle was renowned for its exceptional speed.

"Since you are indeed Young Hero Wei," Chu Liang said solemnly, "I can safely tell you which way Miss Ling'er went." With a serious expression, he pointed eastward and continued, "She flew in that direction not long ago. You should be able to catch up if you hurry."

"Thank you," Wei Tiandi said, "May I ask for your name?"

"I'm just an unknown junior from Mount Shu. Just call me Lin Bei," responded Chu Liang.

1. We previously named this Mammothdagon because we thought it would never appear again since it was just mentioned in one line. It appeared in chapter 8. https://www.wuxiaworld.com/novel/young-noble-be-monster-slaying/yns-chapter-8 The raw for this is 龙牙猛犸, which really means Dragon-Tooth Mammoth. ☜
