To avoid making the people panic and creating chaos, Zeke had once forbidden Sole Wolf from bringing Tiger Lord into the city and places with large crowds.
No way would Zeke believe Sole Wolf's words.
Hence, he used his mental energy to speak with Tiger Lord. “Tiger Lord, why did Sole Wolf bring you here?”
Tiger Lord roared.
What he meant was, “Sole Wolf said that your wife's a tigress, so I came to see how a human had managed to bond with a tiger.”
Instantly, Zeke scowled and sent Sole Wolf flying with a kick.
Sole Wolf was speechless.
Although he could not comprehend what Tiger Lord was saying, he could guess what it just said. Tiger Lord must have just betrayed me.
At that, Sole Wolf cursed at Tiger Lord and Tiger Lord's family. Just you f*cking wait. I'm never going to let this matter go.
Meanwhile, after a glance at Tiger Lord, the janitor passed out from fright.
Before she passed out, she thought, Oh my god, how can a huge tiger appear in a busy city like this? Where did it come from? Moreover, why is this tiger so huge? It's way bigger than calves back in my village!
Zeke then ordered Tiger Lord, “Tiger Lord, take a whiff of the scent on the mop and track down the person with this scent.
However, Tiger Lord proudly said, “I can track down the person for you, but you need to agree to a term of mine.”
Zeke uttered, “Speak.”
“You have to let me meet your tigress. I'd like to see how shameless that tigress is to bond with a human.”
Thump!
The kick Zeke gave Tiger Lord made the tiger stumble and fall. In fact, it even rolled a few rounds before slamming into the thick, solid wall, leaving a huge hole behind.
It was only then Tiger Lord heeded Zeke's words and took a sniff of the scent on the mop.
After that, he sniffed in all directions before stopping in the southwest direction. “The person might be in this direction.”
Thus, Zeke cried out, “After him with me! Let's go!”
Zeke and Sole Wolf then followed Tiger Lord, and the three of them began hunting after their enemy.
Tiger Lord dashed down the main roads of the city, as swift as lightning.
By then, it was already three in the morning. Stall owners were starting to appear on the main roads.
However, all they could see was a flashy patch of colors flitting past their eyes; they could not catch a proper glimpse of Tiger Lord at all.
Before they knew it, Tiger Lord was out of the city center and had entered the outskirts of the city.
Not long after they reached the outskirts, Tiger Lord locked onto a red coupe.
Immediately, Tiger Lord used its energy to communicate with Zeke, “That strange scent is coming from that red coupe. Therefore, your target might be in that coupe.”
At that, Zeke commanded, “Stop him.”
Tiger Lord replied, “Understood!”
With a quick lunge at the speed of sound, Tiger Lord launched himself to the front of the red coupe and stopped the car from going any further.
Initially, the driver of the coupe saw a flash of red lightning hitting the road in front of his car. The moment it touched the ground, that flash of red lightning turned into a ferocious tiger, and the sudden transformation made the driver shudder in shock.
What's going on? Did a tiger just descend from the skies?
Before he could dwell on it, the driver of the coupe quickly slammed his foot on the brake.
However, it was too late. The coupe was going too quickly to stop in time, and it ended up colliding with Tiger Lord's body.
The force of the collision pushed Tiger Lord a step back, but that was all it did.
On the other hand, the coupe was sent flying into the air. After it landed, it even skidded a distance away before coming to a stop, leaving sparks behind it.
Cough, cough, cough!
The driver nearly coughed his lungs out, and it took him what seemed like eons before he could recollect himself.
Disheveled, the man then stumbled out of the coupe, but he soon realized that the bone of his right leg was broken and was sticking out of his flesh. It was a terrifying sight to behold.
However, the only thought in his head was not the pain but the thought of fleeing the scene.
Yet, at that very moment, something heavy weighed on him and locked him in place. He could not move an inch at all.
Zeke then slowly landed by the driver's side.
After coughing out a mouthful of blood, the driver gritted out, “Who... Who are you?”
Zeke replied, “Someone who will end your life if you don't cooperate with me. Are you a Dullioud?”
