"Roar—"
Among Spirit Beasts, especially Overlord Level beasts, territorial awareness is extremely strong.
The golden lion in the resort, the moment it saw that fox, its eyes almost bled.
That sneaky creature creeping around in the dead of night, surely up to no good in the heart of its lair!
A thunderous lion's roar erupted from the South Island, and the golden lion leaped forth. The leopards and monkey troops behind it shuddered, grabbed their weapons, and hurriedly followed their leader's steps to confront the intruder.
"Damn it!"
At the sound of the lion's roar, Ansheng shivered, and instinctively turned back to look toward the North Island.
The shout "sneaky creature" did not intimidate Ansheng much, but he was unsure if the lion's roar had reached Ah Qing's ears.
A male lion weighing nearly four hundred kilograms sprinted like an agile Spirit Monkey across the sea cliffs, its claws gripping the protruding rocks with force, muscles bulging on its arms and back like a demonic visage.
The lion's face was fierce and vicious, using all four limbs to quickly arrive at the man-made viewing platform at the edge of the sea cliff.
"Roar—"
The lion leaped up, its massive head colliding violently with the metal railing, distorting it inch by inch, and opened its wide mouth to bite the fox.
"Scoundrel! How dare you put me in a difficult position!"
Ansheng's face changed dramatically, and without caring about other matters, the Orca directly launched a rocket headbutt right at the lion's jaw, forcing its bloodthirsty mouth to snap shut, unable to roar further.
The lion's body tilted towards the sea cliff, but it flicked its tail to coil around the metal pillar of the railing, swaying its body in the air, flipping onto the viewing platform and landing on all fours.
"I'll directly fox throw! Rip your mouth apart!"
The small fox, revealing its Two-Tailed Fox form, stood up on its hind legs and dashed forward, embracing the lion's paw that was as thick as a stone pillar, continuing to charge backward, twisting the lion's forelimbs behind it.
The lion seemed entirely unprepared for the fox's strength to be so fierce and dominating, being propelled into a complete somersault in mid-air by the fox's explosive rush.
"Bang—"
The lion's head crashed onto a stone bench, the mere collision shattering the marble surface and exposing the reinforced concrete structure within.
"Up!"
After toppling the four to five hundred kilogram lion, the little fox did not hesitate for a moment, spun around, hooked its hand on the lion's fur, and using its tail for support, lifted the entire lion with brute force.
"Ha!"
Hoisting the lion's head, the fox leapt directly down the mountain stairs, using the height difference to slam the heavy lion's head into the cement ground.
"Boom—"
With a drop of dozens of meters from the viewing platform to the road, the lion, held in place by the fox, was utterly unable to adjust its form during the fall, staring helplessly as its head smashed heavily onto the ground.
Accompanied by a thunderous crash and the sound of shattering, the lion, body-slammed by the fox, crashed onto the concrete surface with great force, sending dust and debris flying.
Where the lion's head met the cement ground, a hole suddenly formed, embedding its head within, its once robust body instinctively curling up, now stiff.
"?"
The two leopards circling around arrived just in time to see their boss getting body-slammed mid-air by the fox, causing their limbs to tense and try to stop their bodies from bursting forward at high speed.
Scraping their pads against the cement road, the leopards halted not far from the little fox.
The two leopards looked dumbfounded, seeming to not believe what their eyes had seen.
"Slap—"
The little fox raised its paw and, without caring if the leopards had roared earlier, gave them a solid slap first.
The two leopards, covering their cheeks pitifully, slowly lowered their bodies, expressing submission.
Meanwhile, the monkeys that had also rushed over were shocked, hastily throwing away their sticks and stones, crouching in a line with their hands on their heads, trembling.
"No! What kind of move is that?"
Seeing the monkeys' action, Ansheng, who was initially worried about the noise reaching the North Island, couldn't help but be amused by the monkeys.
He knew they were monkeys, but if he hadn't, he would have thought they were human seven-spotted beetles disguised as monkeys...
No!
Thinking of the little fox here, Ansheng instinctively looked toward the fog-light shrouded resort, revealing a peculiar expression.
There are certain things that, without human teaching, these monkeys, seemingly living in a zoo, couldn't possibly know.
"This resort can't possibly get raided by the vice squad before it even opens, right?"
Ansheng muttered to himself, his gaze directed towards the orca near the ocean villa.
The orca cast a curious glance at the fox.
Even though it was also an Overlord Level Spirit Beast, being a sea-dwelling spirit beast, it had no conflict with land-dwelling spirit beasts and bore no hostility towards Ansheng.
The orca noticed the little fox looking at it and let out a gentle cooing sound, raising its head and spraying a spout of seawater onto the sacks on the boardwalk towards the ocean villa.
"Goods...trade."
The orca vaguely conveyed its intent to the little fox.
"Coo—"
The little fox gazed at the leopards and the monkey group, slowly instructing them to continue the trade.
The two leopards immediately understood, smugly carrying the new white king over to the pier area.
The monkey group hurriedly followed, but a few monkeys remained behind, frantically slapping the unconscious lion king, whose neck was crooked with rolled-back eyes.
Ansheng arrived at the pier, curiously opening a sack to see what was inside.
What was inside wasn't what Ansheng had imagined, such as adult products or pharmaceuticals.
There were only some ice blocks, clearly produced by an ice machine based on their size and shape.
The lion king, leading the monkey group, carried about two hundred pounds of ice blocks from the resort to the seaside pier.
"Coo?"
With Ansheng's expression growing more peculiar, a trade between two Overlord Level Spirit Beasts began.
The monkeys took out brushes, the kind commonly found in bathrooms for cleaning floors.
The orca opened its mouth wide, and the monkeys jumped into it, vigorously scrubbing the overlord-level orca's teeth with the brushes, even squeezing toothpaste onto them for a heavy brushing.
After brushing, the monkeys took out a paste Ansheng had never seen before and applied it to the orca's teeth.
"Gloogle—"
After finishing its dental care, the orca took a large gulp of seawater, spitting out the foam, and swam to the side. The monkeys on the pier dropped the ice blocks from the sacks into the open mouth of the overlord-level orca below.
"Coo coo coo—"
The orca, delighting in the ice, let out a series of joyful coos.
Other orcas were lining up, waiting for the monkeys to brush their teeth and for their turn to eat ice blocks.
Though orcas are the rulers of the ocean, their teeth don't regenerate like a great white shark's, which can lose and grow teeth frequently.
For orcas, if their teeth were damaged, they'd truly be left toothless.
Orcas have a significant lifespan, averaging fifty years, with some living as long as one hundred and five.
As top predators, orcas face severe tooth erosion issues due to their long lifespans and unlike sharks, they can't replace their teeth.
After completing their dental maintenance, the orca retrieved a large amount of meat and some fruits from the sea, tossing them onto the pier for the monkeys and leopards.
The Orca Family turned to leave.
As they departed, the leading orca, black to the point of purplish hue, mischievously dove to the seabed and suddenly sprayed a spout of water from its blowhole, launching two dolphins floating on the sea surface three to four meters into the air.
Dolphins: "......"
Having witnessed the entire trade, Ansheng was left speechless, looking at the fainted golden lion king.
"You could've just said you were being a dentist!"
"If only you had roared a bit less, I wouldn't have had to try that grave-stone head bump I saw in those short videos..."
"Hold on, I'll go get a doctor for you."
The little fox shook his head helplessly and quickly ran towards the North Island, intending to borrow a mobile phone from Ah Qing.
However.
As Ansheng approached the North Island restaurant, he saw Yu Xueqing holding a cylindrical object over a meter long, much like a stick, standing in the front plaza of the restaurant.
Ansheng paused, his pace homeward slowing, looking with suspicion towards the "stick" in Yu Xueqing's hand.
Yu Xueqing seemed to sense something, turning around revealed the long-gone Xiaolan.
