In order to enhance his physique as much as possible before the Spiritual Energy Revival.
During this period, Jiang Che could be said to have suffered greatly, learning from Nangong Luo’s Body Refining methods and honing his body.
Every day, he ran laps around the Tiger Garden, exhausting himself like a dead dog, having to endure the excruciating pain of crashing or slapping against tree trunks, only to wake up feeling sore all over.
Unfortunately, he merely mimicked the surface, never grasping the essence of Nangong Luo’s Body Refining, resulting in poor refining effects.
Compared to Nangong Luo’s transformation, his physique improvement was negligible.
Such an outcome could indeed be considered a lot of effort for little gain.
And his second brother clearly mastered an extraordinary body refining technique, likely learned in his previous life; otherwise, he couldn’t possibly progress so fast.
However, this was good news for Jiang Che.
The faster his second brother’s strength improved, the more satisfied Jiang Che felt.
Unconsciously, Jiang Che’s gaze towards the second brother became much gentler. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel⁂fire.net
This guy was like a fast-growing leek; Jiang Che thought he ought to carefully nurture it to be able to frequently harvest it.
Nangong Luo and Fang Yuan had already started their body refining for the day.
Nangong Luo swung his tiger paw with special power techniques, striking the sturdy trunk, producing dull thuds.
Fang Yuan was practicing the Ancient Flesh Body Technique, supporting his limbs, his body adopting a special breathing rhythm, every muscle vibrating, absorbing the thin spiritual Qi from outside, nourishing the body.
At this moment, the entire Tiger Garden was filled with the sound of Nangong Luo striking the trunk and the strange noises from Fang Yuan’s mouth.
While the two were diligently practicing, Jiang Che was lying lazily on a polished, shiny rock, dreaming.
Hadn’t he been training hard to enhance his physique?
Yet even after exhausting himself, the final effects were far less than a single system feedback.
Why bother training at all?
Isn’t lying down comfortably?
Forget it, let’s not pretend anymore, I’m destined to reach the peak, known as the "Tiger Celestial Emperor" in the future.
You all keep on practicing!
I’m going back to sleep.
Meanwhile, Nangong Luo, who was refining her body, instinctively glanced around, suddenly realizing that Jiang Che, who usually practiced under the tree, hadn’t shown up.
Feeling puzzled, Nangong Luo stopped refining.
Then, she scanned the entire Tiger Garden, looking for Jiang Che, and finally discovered him in the eastern corner, sleeping...
"I thought this elder brother had some perseverance, but didn’t expect him to give up after just half a month. Seems I misjudged."
Such laziness will not lead to great things; in half a year, he’ll be nothing but an ant, not even qualified to serve as my mount!"
Looking at Jiang Che lying there, a trace of disappointment flashed in Nangong Luo’s eyes, filled with disdain.
After all, from the same mother, she had originally planned to recruit this elder brother as her follower after the Spiritual Energy Revival, to have someone by her side as an assistant.
But she never expected this guy to be so disappointing, shattering her expectations.
Nangong Luo also thought of her second brother, the one with black markings on his forehead, whose solitary nature always made him tremble in the corner like he was having an episode.
Nangong Luo hadn’t ruled out the possibility of him doing body refining, but she had never seen such a peculiar method, moreover, even her older brother couldn’t defeat him...
"Forget it, after all, from the same mother, in the future, I’ll just reluctantly take these two useless ones as mounts, which will at least keep them alive."
Nangong Luo sighed inwardly, shaking her head.
"Haha, this idiot is here sleeping lazily! Indeed, an ordinary tiger is just an ordinary tiger, not only stupid but lacking determination, even unable to endure the minor hardship of body refining!"
Just finishing the first round of practicing the Ancient Flesh Body Technique, Fang Yuan was ready to rest for a while, and upon opening his eyes, he immediately saw Jiang Che on the nearby stone.
Fang Yuan was initially dazed, then quickly realized this stupid tiger couldn’t persist, suddenly finding it hilarious.
But the next moment, recalling being insulted twice by such a one, Fang Yuan couldn’t feel pleased anymore.
A thin layer of fog enveloped the Tiger Garden, with a hint of chill in the air.
The tightly closed iron gate was opened, and the keeper walked in holding a plastic bucket in his left hand.
The keeper scooped the pieces of meat from the bucket, placing them in the bowls of the three cubs.
It was mealtime again.
Jiang Che ate the fastest, like the autumn wind sweeping away leaves, devouring the meat chunks in the bowl, and walked leisurely away.
Beside him, Fang Yuan chewed on the meat pieces fed by the keeper, finding them bland and tasteless.
Meat should be eaten fresh.
Feeding on such poor-quality meat everyday was making him nauseous.
He glanced at Jiang Che, who slept after eating, his eyes gradually filled with ferocity.
Coupled with the black monarch pattern on his head, Fang Yuan now looked like a fierce tiger.
Thinking of the humiliation suffered from this stupid tiger twice, Fang Yuan couldn’t bear the bitterness, his anger barely contained.
This fool is on a path to destruction!
"With such strong blood and robust flesh, this guy’s flesh must be delicious!"
"Once I eat this fool, and with a significant power boost, then eat that fierce female tiger too, and the keeper... by then, I’ll break out of Tiger Garden... heh heh heh!"
The more Fang Yuan thought about it, the more pleased he became; after all, he was a Demon Monarch in his past life, he couldn’t bear to remain confined in this Tiger Garden forever.
Staring intently at Jiang Che’s back, Fang Yuan slowly crept forward, his steps light, not daring to make a sound.
Meanwhile, hearing the voice in his head while sleeping, Jiang Che was immediately wide awake.
This second brother, truly never ceases his evil intentions!
He actually plans to ambush me while I’m asleep, his good elder brother!
Despite Jiang Che’s continual "friendly and kind" demeanor towards this good younger brother!
At this moment, Fang Yuan had already snuck in front of Jiang Che, with cold light flickering in his eyes, emitting killing intent, thick with murderous aura...
Gazing at Jiang Che’s robust tiger body, Fang Yuan drooled with tiger saliva.
"Heh heh heh, die now!"
Just as Fang Yuan extended his sharp tiger claws towards Jiang Che’s eyes,
suddenly, Jiang Che, who appeared to be fast asleep, leapt up, pouncing on Fang Yuan, pinning him firmly down, roaring.
Fang Yuan was utterly shocked, quickly trying to get up, only to find Jiang Che’s strength astonishing, holding him down with just one tiger paw.
As if a small mountain pressed on him, no matter how Fang Yuan struggled, Jiang Che remained unmoved, steadfast like a mountain.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"This guy sleeps all day, doesn’t even do body refining, how could his strength be so strong? How could the Demon Monarch not be his match?"
Fang Yuan couldn’t believe it, his eyes dimming, the arrogance originally brought by his improved strength, vanished in an instant.
