This Side-effect Is Great - Chapter 25

Chapter 25 Don’t Hit My Face

Ever since the theft of the warehouse, many people had been patrolling inside and outside the warehouse for the past few days. Therefore, that demon beast had never found an opportunity to steal some precious medicinal herbs.

Even though its strength might have surpassed all the warehouse workers, with its intelligence and caution, it would probably not act rashly under such circumstances, lest it be discovered.

It was precisely because of this that the warehouse had been safe for the past few days. It also made more people suspect Hao

Jiyong.

Song Ankang could not help but sigh thinking about the intelligence of that demon beast. It already had such astonishing intelligence before reaching the inner refinement realm. If it continued to improve, it might have the possibility of breaking through to a first-rate martial artist in the future.

In order to avoid the demon beast’s suspicion, Song Ankang did not remove all the guards inside and outside the warehouse. Instead, he left a few behind and pretended to walk around. They basically patrolled the entrance and surroundings of the warehouse and rarely entered.

This was naturally to give the demon beast an ample opportunity to attack.

Song Ankang was mentally prepared for a protracted battle, but perhaps because it had not eaten precious herbs for days, the demon beast was a little hungry. That night, in the middle of the night, it quietly arrived at the warehouse and appeared under the warehouse along the hole that had been dug long ago. It opened the hole lid that was still the same.

**CRUNCH**

Only low-level ninth-grade demon beasts were directly bound by the Earth Cage Talisman and could no longer move when the sound of the Earth Cage Talisman was activated.

“Boohoo…”

Suddenly bound, the demon beast could not help but let out a shrill cry, but this sound stunned Song Ankang.

Such a pleasant voice. Could it be a fox demon that could transform into a beautiful woman?

Song Ankang sped up. Jiang Yunhe followed from the left and right, followed by Qiu Shi, Hao Jiyong, and the others. They rushed to the storeroom like a gust of wind and quickly raised the Cold Leaf Grass. They saw the demon beasts tightly bound by the Earth Cage Talisman.

It had a crew cut, a thick body, and a foot long. Its entire body was grayish-black, and there was a handful of green fur on its head that fluttered in the wind. Its black eyes were wide open as he stared fiercely at Song Ankang. It even let out an arrogant cry.

“What… what kind of demon beast is this? Why have I never seen or heard of it?” Qiu Shi’s bright eyes widened as she stared at the flat-headed demon beast curiously.

Jiang Yunhe also frowned. “I’ve never seen such a demon beast either. It seems to be an extremely rare demon beast.”

Song Ankang’s eyes were filled with surprise. He smiled and said, “If I’m not wrong, this should be an badger. It’s said to be a demon beast that only appears in the Kunlun Mountains and rarely appears in our country. I wonder why there’s one here. Could it have been brought here by someone?”

There was another crucial point that Song Ankang did not mention. This badger was still a young badger and had a high chance of being tamed.

The badger usually had the strength of a first-rate martial artist when they reached adulthood. Some of the more talented ones could even surpass first-rate martial artists and become true demon beasts.

In the Mysterious Desolate Continent, those demon beasts whose strength did not surpass first-rate martial artists were generally not qualified to be called demon beasts. They could only be called ferocious beasts.

This badger cub was a low-level ninth-grade ferocious beast, but it had the possibility of breaking through to the ninth-grade. The badgers were usually judged its talent based on its intelligence.

To be able to possess such astonishing intelligence when it was still a cub, it was obvious how talented this badger was. In the future, it would definitely be able to break through the first-rate and step into the supernatural realm.

If he could tame it, it would definitely be a capable helper for Song Ankang in the future.

The dozen or so medicinal herbs were nothing compared to this precious badger cub.

However, in order to avoid being known and attracting the jealousy of certain people, Song Ankang did not say much. It was better to wait until he had tamed the Earth Dragonfly before he considered telling anyone.

“Badger?”

Jiang Yunhe, Qiu Shi, and the others were confused. They had obviously never heard of

Song Ankang smiled and picked up the bounded badger on the ground. “I told you to read more books, but you always found it a waste of time. Now you know your ignorance.”

“I’ll take this badger with me. I want to do something with it. You can look for the nest of the badger through this hole and see if there are any precious herbs left inside. However, I think there’s a high chance that those herbs have already been eaten by it. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have come to the storeroom to steal the herbs again.”

As he spoke, Song Ankang hurriedly left the storeroom and walked towards the training room. He could not wait to tame this shockingly valuable badger.

Seeing Song Ankang leave quickly, Qiu Shi and Jiang Yunhe felt strange, but they did not think too much about it. They did not expect Song Ankang to want to tame this ferocious beast.

The interior and exterior of the training room were set with black ironstone that was harder than the Green Ridge Stone and harder than ordinary steel. Even with the badger’s ability to dig holes, it would take a lot of time to escape. Song Ankang could tame it there.

On the way, after carefully sensing the strength of the badger, Song Ankang was surprised to find that the strength of this badger had already reached the peak of the ninth-grade low-level. It was only half a step away from stepping into the ranks of the ninth-grade mid-level ferocious beasts. At that time, the strength of this badger would be comparable to that of an Internal Realm martial artist.

It had to be known that this y was only a cub. It had only been born for about a month, but it already had such astonishing strength and intelligence. When it grew up, it would definitely be able to surpass first-rate martial artists or even higher realms.

As expected of a beast from Kunlun Mountain, its talent far exceeded Song Ankang’s imagination.

This made Song Ankang even more interested in it. He sped up and entered the training room, locking the door behind him. Then, he opened the shackles of the Earth Cage Talisman and prepared to teach the badger a good lesson and tame it.

There was only one way to tame the badger’s cub. That was to suppress it head-on and use iron and blood to completely subdue it so that it would never dare to betray them.

Come, my pet-to-be!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

However, to Song’s surprise, as soon as he opened the Earth Cage Talisman, the badger cub, which had been bound for a long time, immediately rushed out and jumped up. Its front legs curled into small fists like a human’s, and it roared and attacked Song.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Before Song Ankang could react, he was ruthlessly punched in the face by the two small fists of the badger cub.

This was an innate martial technique!

Even Song Ankang, who was several times stronger than the cub, could not react to such a fast and violent attack. There was no other explanation except for his talent martial technique.

On the other hand, ferocious beasts that could possess innate martial techniques could be said to be one in a million. In the future, they could basically step into the ranks of the extraordinary. This badger cub was even more talented than he had imagined.

Just… don’t hit my face!’
