“Coo, coo…”

Hiding behind the snow-covered rock, the Tianshan Rat Hare glared at Fang Qiu with its round eyes. It looked as if it was going to eat someone, as muffled angry growls could be heard coming from it.

It looked as if it were trying to intimidate Fang Qiu with its power!

Fang Qiu could not help smiling.

This little guy did not only look cute, but also acted in a cute manner. It did not seem like an animal at all, but simply a funny creature.

“Come here.”

Fang Qiu grinned wickedly and waved at the hare.

“Coo, coo!”

The Tianshan Rat Hare suddenly straightened its body and continued to emit the muffled sounds.

“If you don’t come over, then I’m going over to pick you up.”

With great interest, Fang Qiu stepped forward with a smile and walked toward the Tianshan Snow Lotus. As he walked, he made the gesture of picking the Tianshan Snow Lotus in front of the hare.

“Coo!”

The Tianshan Rat Hare suddenly grew frantic.

It let out a loud cry and then moved.

Fang Qiu thought that this little creature would rush up to grab it. After all, it still had some strength. The ordinary lions, leopards and tigers were no match for it.

The strange thing was that although the little hare was angry, it did not charge at him.

It was still roaring angrily at the same place and its behavior appeared very human-like. It was so anxious that it kept turning in circles in the same place, looking extremely adorable.

“This little guy’s spiritual intelligence is not weak.”

Fang Qiu was a little surprised.

In Fang Qiu’s view, animals were wild, so was the Tianshan Rat Hare. However, their wild nature would never allow them to let their food to be snatched unless they encountered a formidable enemy that they could not deal with at all.

But from the beginning to the end, Fang Qiu did not release any of his power. This little hare obviously had the power equivalent to a lion or a tiger, but it still did not dare to charge at Fang Qi, who did not seem to be of the slightest threat at all.

That was to say…

Even though Fang Qiu did not release his momentum, the hare was still able to feel that Fang Qiu was stronger than it.

“Coo, coo…”

Watching Fang Qiu stop in front of the Tianshan Snow Lotus and squatting in front of it, the hare spun around anxiously in circles before it suddenly stopped. It looked at Fang Qiu and the rare Tianshan Snow Lotus. Then it suddenly screeched at Fang Qiu, turned its head resolutely and ran away quickly.

“Eh?”

This scene surprised Fang Qiu even more.

This Tianshan Rat Hare was indeed different from the others. The moment it realized that it could not get the Tianshan Snow Lotus, it immediately turned away and left without any hesitation.

Compared with the other animals and the guardian beasts of the Earth Treasures, it was obviously much smarter.

If Fang Qiu’s intention was to look for the Earth Treasure and the Tianshan Snow Lotus was also an Earth Treasure, Fang Qiu would definitely ignore the hare and let it run away.

However, the reason why Fang Qiu came out this time was not because he was hunting for the Earth Treasure or the Tianshan Snow Lotus in front of him, but for the guardian beast!

How could Fang Qiu let such a suitable guardian beast go?

“You want to run?”

Fang Qiu grinned.

The more intelligent this little creature was, the more he liked it.

Looking at the Tianshan Rat Hare running away, Fang Qiu immediately ran after it.

“Coo…”

Sensing the noise coming from behind, the Tianshan Rat Hare turned its head. When it saw Fang Qiu catching up with it, it immediately screeched at Fang Qiu.

It seemed to be saying, “I’ve already given you the Tianshan Snow Lotus. Why are you still chasing me?”

Fang Qiu did not stop and rushed straight toward it.

“Coo!”

Seeing Fang Qiu rushing up in an instant, the Tianshan Rat Hare was so anxious that its fur stood on end. It screeched, turned around and ran away.

“Haha.”

Fang Qiu was overjoyed.

This little creature’s movements and expressions were so varied that it could easily make people chuckle.

Fang Qiu was having a great time, but the Tianshan Rat Hare became very nervous.

It kept running.

However, although it was agile, it was still too slow compared to Fang Qiu.

In the blink of an eye, Fang Qiu was right behind it.

“Coo!”

Seeing Fang Qiu catching up with it, the sprinting hare suddenly screeched and stretched its legs. Then it stiffened and instantly dropped to the ground as if it had fainted.

It looked like a frightened sheep.

Fang Qiu burst into laughter.

“Hey, you can’t run away now, can you?”

Knowing that the little guy was playing dead, Fang Qiu immediately stepped forward and reached out to grab it. He smiled smugly and then turned back to the Tianshan Snow Lotus.

Back at the Tianshan Snow Lotus, Fang Qiu threw the Tianshan Rat Hare which was playing dead beside the lotus and was ready to check it.

The little hare was no longer there.

“Whoosh…”

As soon as it landed on the ground, its strong hind legs kicked hard and then it suddenly ran off without looking back.

“Again?”

Fang Qiu pursed his lips and chased after the hare again.

After running for less than 20 meters, Fang Qiu rushed to the front of the Tianshan Rat Hare and blocked its way.

However, the hare was exceptionally agile. The moment Fang Qiu blocked its way, it immediately changed direction and continued to run desperately.

But not long after it ran, it was blocked by Fang Qiu again.

Things kept going on like this.

The hare kept running in different directions in an area with a 20-meter radius, but no matter how hard it ran, it could not run out of this area.

In the end, seeing that Fang Qiu was blocking its way again, the little hare, which could not run anymore, immediately rolled its eyes, twitched several times and fell down stiffly again.

“Still pretending to be dead?”

Fang Qiu was speechless.

He grabbed its stiff hind legs, carried it upside down and returned to the Tianshan Snow Lotus.

Fang Qiu did not let go of the hare this time.

He held the hare while observing the Tianshan Snow Lotus.

Then Fang Qiu found that this Tianshan Snow Lotus was indeed not an Earth Treasure. However, it should be able to achieve the effect of an ordinary Earth Treasure because it had been growing on the top of the mountain for years and had been nourished by the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. It was also infused with a lot of Qi of Heaven and Earth.

The observation was completed.

“Since there is a terrain in the place where Fairy Desert Cistanche grows, is there also a terrain for this Tianshan Snow Lotus?”

Thinking of this, Fang Qiu muttered to himself, “Although it’s not an Earth Treasure, this place can forcibly nurture this Tianshan Snow Lotus to achieve the effect of an ordinary Earth Treasure. If there is a terrain, then this terrain must be extraordinary.”

Fang Qiu threw the Tianshan Rat Hare which was playing dead in the snow in front of him. Then he immediately used his Divine Consciousness to sweep out and began to check the surroundings.

Tianshan Rat Hare knew that there was another chance.

Without hesitation, the moment it landed on the ground, its hind legs kicked fiercely and it ran away again.

At this moment, Fang Qiu’s Divine Consciousness was covering every inch of land within a radius of 20 kilometers. Of course, he was aware of the little creature’s escape.

However, Fang Qiu was not worried about it.

Anyway, the hare lived nearby, so it would not run far away.

The most important thing now was to determine the topography of the terrain.

After a while, under the exploration of his Divine Consciousness, Fang Qiu finally confirmed the terrain of this area.

The existence of this Tianshan Snow Lotus was indeed related to the terrain, but this terrain was not large. It only covered an area of five kilometers around, which was two times smaller than the Fairy Desert Cistanche’s terrain.

Because his understanding of the terrain was still in the initiation stage, Fang Qiu did not know what size of the terrain would be better. But he found another terrain now, which was enough to make him happy.

“A truly unexpected gain.”

Fang Qiu burst out laughing.

“It seems that I will be able to get another type of immortal grass.”

Since Desert Cistanche could rely on the terrain to be mass-produced, then why couldn’t the Tianshan Snow Lotus?

“But I have to go back to the cultivation base first and simulate it with sand to see if the terrain is suitable or not.”

Although Fang Qiu had memorized all the terrain within five kilometers, the terrain was still too mysterious and magical. Fang Qiu could not completely master it. Even if he found a new terrain, he had to test it first to see if it worked.

After he made up his mind,

Fang Qiu squatted and picked up the special Tianshan Snow Lotus in front of him.

“Little guy, it’s time to go home.”

After picking the lotus, Fang Qiu grinned and turned to look in one direction.

It was another mountain peak in Tianshan.

It had to be said that this little hare was so swift, at least much faster than the leopard. Otherwise, how could it reach the top of another mountain in such a short time?

However, the person it encountered was none other than Fang Qiu.

Even if it ran for a few kilometers, Fang Qiu could still get it back, not to mention running to another mountain.

“Whoosh.”

Fang Qiu immediately flew toward the Tianshan Rat Hare.

The distance between the two mountains was neither long nor short.

“Crunch, crunch, crunch…”

The snow-white Tianshan Rat Hare ran all the way to another mountain before finally coming to a stop. It looked back at the long distance and finally calmed down. It then ran to a pale green Tianshan Snow Lotus not far away, squatted beside and began to eat it.

It looked like it was trying to use its anger to satisfy its appetite.

There was no doubt that if this little thing was sold on the market, it would definitely be the pet that numerous people would fight to own, no matter how much it cost.

“Burp.”

After taking a long time to eat the lotus, the little hare suddenly opened its mouth and burped.

Then, without turning its head, it continued to hold the lotus and gnawed at it as if it was starving.

It ate for quite a while until there was only one leaf left on the lotus.

“Are you full?”

At this time, a familiar voice sounded.

The little hare’s body stiffened and then it slowly turned its head, only to see that Fang Qiu was standing behind it with a smile and looking down at it.

The little hare was completely stunned when it saw Fang Qiu again. Its big eyes were very human-like, revealing a desperate look.

It looked at Fang Qiu and then looked at the last leaf of the lotus.

It quickly stuffed the leaf into its mouth, chewed it for a while, swallowed it and then raised its head to look at Fang Qiu. Then it stretched out its limbs and lay stiffly on the ground again, pretending to be dead.

“I’ll take you home.”

Fang Qiu laughed, grabbed the Tianshan Rat Hare and held it in his arms. Then he turned around and returned to the cultivation base.
