Why was this creature still coming back?

Lu Qing felt a wave of frustration.

Would he be unable to sleep again tonight?

This couldn\'t go on. If he didn\'t solve this problem, he\'d never get a good night\'s sleep again.

After two sleepless nights, Lu Qing was starting to get irritable.

He had to find out what kind of creature had the nerve to keep coming back.

Grabbing the stick by his bed, Lu Qing tiptoed to the main door. Suddenly, he yanked the latch and flung the door open.

The sudden action clearly startled whatever was outside.

He saw a dark shadow dart out of the courtyard in an instant.

Ever since he awakened his abilities, Lu Qing\'s eyes had undergone subtle changes.

Firstly, his vision had improved significantly; he could see things clearly from a great distance.

Secondly, his sensitivity to light sources had heightened.

Although he couldn\'t see in complete darkness, as long as there was a bit of light, he could make out seven to eight parts of his surroundings.

At this moment, under the bright moonlight, Lu Qing could see what had been disturbing him these past two nights.

It was a small black beast.

About two feet long, it looked like a cross between a cat and a leopard, with eyes that shone like light bulbs.

The black beast\'s fur was bristled, its tail erect, and its limbs crouched low, watching Lu Qing warily.

Seeing the black beast\'s appearance, Lu Qing sighed in relief.

Thankfully, it didn\'t look particularly large or ferocious.

After all, a creature that had been scared off by a slammed door the previous night couldn\'t be that bold.

For some reason, the black beast didn\'t flee this time. It just crouched and watched Lu Qing.

Lu Qing stood quietly, not making any sudden moves.

He wanted to use his abilities to gather information about the beast before deciding what to do.

Lu Qing tried to remain calm, his gaze fixed on the small beast.

Soon, his eyes widened.

A faint red light appeared on the mysterious beast.

[Black Night Spirit Lynx: Mountain spirit beast, juvenile, female.]

[Extremely fast, with sharp claws that can break stone and split metal.]

[Legend has it that the Black Night Spirit Lynx loves fish but hates water, forever yearning for fish in vain.]

A red light-level beast?!

Lu Qing almost jumped in surprise.

The mysterious beast\'s aura had reached the red light level.

That meant it was on the same level as Old Doctor Chen!

No wonder the medicinal powder had no effect.

Taking several deep breaths, Lu Qing calmed his emotions.

A sense of relief washed over him.

Thankfully, he hadn\'t acted rashly.

He hadn\'t expected the small creature to be a red light-level spirit beast.

And what did the description say?

Extremely fast! Claws that can break stone and split metal!

Such destructive power would surpass even tigers and leopards.

Fortunately, the small beast was timid. Otherwise, he might have been lying on the ground already.

Hiding the stick behind him, Lu Qing put on a harmless smile.

"Little one, did you come here for fish?"

The black beast continued to watch Lu Qing warily, not understanding his words.

Lu Qing didn\'t expect the beast to understand him.

He moved cautiously, trying not to startle the black beast, and quickly fetched two pieces of dried fish from the kitchen.

When Lu Qing returned to the doorway with the fish, he noticed the black beast\'s eyes seemed to light up.

So, it was here for the fish.

Lu Qing remembered the third line of the description.

He waved the fish in front of him.

"Sorry for scaring you earlier. These two pieces of fish are my apology."

The black beast\'s eyes, glowing in the dark like light bulbs, followed the fish as it moved.

Seeing this, Lu Qing felt more confident.

"Here you go."

He tossed the fish into the courtyard, deliberately throwing them far from the black beast to avoid startling it.

The fish landed on the ground, causing the beast to retreat a few steps, still eyeing Lu Qing warily.

Lu Qing stood still, quietly.

Sensing that Lu Qing had no intention of attacking, the black beast relaxed its bristled fur a bit.

It sniffed the air a few times, then suddenly darted forward.

Lu Qing saw a dark shadow flash, and the next moment, the fish were gone.

The beast\'s figure then leaped over the fence, quickly disappearing into the night fog.

After waiting for a while to ensure the beast was gone, Lu Qing closed the door and returned to his room.

Lying in bed, his heart pounded uncontrollably.

The situation had been quite tense.

The black beast, though timid, could still attack if provoked.

As the saying goes, even a cornered rabbit will bite.

And this wasn\'t just a rabbit but a powerful spirit beast!

Sharp claws that could break stone and split metal!

If it could tear through stone and metal, what about flesh and blood?

So Lu Qing dared not provoke it.

Fortunately, the black beast was not only timid but also lacked aggression.

Otherwise, Lu Qing might not have survived the encounter.

"Such a powerful beast, why haven\'t I heard the villagers talk about it?"

After calming down, Lu Qing pondered.

He recalled the description from his abilities.

The beast was still a juvenile. Could its parents be nearby?

Probably not. If its parents were around, they would have come together by now.

Lu Qing remembered the description also mentioned that the Black Night Spirit Lynx loved fish.

It must have migrated from elsewhere, either driven away by its parents or separated due to an accident.

Lu Qing made several guesses but couldn\'t be sure.

However, he had a feeling that the black beast might return after tonight.

There was no evidence, just a hunch.

"Looks like I can\'t stop fishing after all."

Lu Qing thought helplessly.

He had planned to take a break from fishing to focus entirely on learning medicine.

After all, once Old Doctor Chen sold the Red Moon Carp, Lu Qing would have a substantial amount of money, enough for him and Xiao Yan to live comfortably for a long time.

But now, with the black beast\'s visits, he had to adjust his plans.

That was a red light-level spirit beast, not something he could provoke. He had to prioritize keeping it calm.

"What a situation this is!"

Lu Qing sighed in despair.
