Villain : I reincarnated as a Prince! Shouldn't I have a Harem?

Oh... more beasts have come to make me their prey.

This was what she thought at first, however, noticing a human on top of the red fiery tiger, she realized that these were spirit beasts enslaved by him.

Seeing this, light returned to her eyes, hope filling her heart once again as she gathered the remaining force in her body to yell:

"Help!!..."

She then noticed the tiger that was standing on its two legs like a human dashed and pounced on the metal claw Eagle, and the red fiery tiger went on to engage the Blue lightning Bull.

The Human who was on top of the red tiger flew towards her before descending in front of her.

In less than a minute, the metal claw eagle and the blue lightning bull found themselves at a disadvantage.

The metal claw eagle yelled: "Brother, let's retreat. We can't win against them in our current state!"

After fighting with the Golden Mane Lion, they were tired and not in their top form.

The Blue Lightning Bull showed his agreement with a light nod before flying away. The Silver Night Fox followed after them.

As Gang Zhao and Moyun were about to follow after them, Ashen stopped them:

"You two, come back. No need to chase them."

Hearing this, Zhu Loyan, who had just lost her father to those beasts, expressed her discontent:

"What? How can you let them go? They killed my father and so many humans! You have to make them pay for their crimes." She was on the verge of crying as she said this.

Hearing this, Ashen shot a glare at her as he muttered in a low yet cold voice: "You are free to chase after them yourself if you want!"

Zhu Loyan, unable to stop her tears, sulked: "What? How can you be so heartless?"

"I'm not going to endanger the lives of my spirit beasts for your immature whining," Ashen grunted before calling back his tigers. "I'll take my leave now."

"Wait!!" Princess Fanrong shouted before apologizing: "I apologize for her rude behavior to you, our savior. Please forgive her."

"Alright. I'll forgive her." Ashen said with a smile before turning around in a heartbeat: "I'll take my leave now."

"N-No wait! Allow me to thank you properly for saving our lives!"

Fanrong couldn't just allow him to leave, not after her escorts and uncle had died.

This was a dangerous forest, and who knows, maybe the Metal claw eagle lord might return.

She needed someone to escort them out of this forest.

"No need. I don't need your gratitude." Ashen refused her without a second thought.

"Huh?" Princess Fanrong couldn't believe her ears.

Just what is his deal? Why can't he simply help me?

"Savior, wait! Please help me! We are alone in this dangerous forest. Atleast help us till we are out of this forest." Fanrong decided to be genuine this time.

Ashen, smiling satisfactorily, praised: "Good. You should've been honest with me from the start if you wanted my help."

"So, does that mean you will help us?" The princess asked with an expectant gaze.

"I'll help you," Ashen replied as he tapped the back of the Infernal Flame Tiger King, on which he was sitting.

Moyun understood Ashen's intentions as it sat on the ground, allowing the two females to climb on its back.

Ashen extended his hand towards Fanrong and spoke: "Come."

Even though she could fly, just to not be rude, Fanrong grabbed his hand and climbed the huge body of Moyun before sitting behind Ashen.

Next, he helped Zhu Loyan climb before ordering Moyun to begin moving.

Even though Moyun and Gang Zhao could fly and get them out of the forest in a matter of minutes, they still walked slowly like normal tigers, allowing Ashen to converse with his new companions.

However, Ashen didn't start the conversation and waited for others to begin asking questions.

It didn't even take a minute before Fanrong asked, curious about his identity:

"Savior, you've done a great deed for the Zhuji tribe and me by rescuing us. If you don't mind, I'd like to know the name of my savior."

Ashen looked at her from the corner of his eye before calmly muttering:

"Isn't it common courtesy to introduce yourself before asking about someone else?"

Fanrong immediately understood the meaning behind his words, as she slightly bowed her head:

"I apologize for my rude behavior. Let me formally introduce myself to show my genuine gratitude towards you."

"My name is Zhuji Fanrong, the daughter of the matriarch of the Zhuji Tribe and the enchanting fox princess. I have a 7-star Sky Fox Spirit, and I am a fox tamer. I had come here after hearing the rumors of a Silver Night Fox appearing in the forest. I wanted to tame it, however, that led to us nearly dying. It was only through luck that I survived thanks to you appearing in time."

"Hmm," Ashen nodded lightly before calmly introducing himself:

"My name is Huan Tian and I am at the first stage of the King realm. My spirit is a 6-star White Flying Tiger. I am 39 years old right now."

"What??!!" Fanrong and Zhu Loyan both yelled in disbelief and shock. It wasn't that his appearance didn't match his age, however, it was unheard of a 39-year-old King realm expert.

Even Fanrong, a core-formation realm genius was 67 years old. It took a long time to advance from core formation to king realm due to the attainment issue.

How could someone become a king realm expert at 39?

"39? How is this possible? How can you become a King realm cultivator at only 39?"

It wasn't by mistake that Ashen revealed Huan Tian's real age instead of throwing some average age like 189 years.

He had thought hard and came to a decision that this was the right move.

Ashen was already prepared for this question as he answered calmly:

"I can understand why you two are shocked. Even I was pretty shocked when I suddenly became a king realm expert in just two years from the origin realm."

"What?? King realm in just two years? How?" Zhu Loyan asked loudly without hiding her shock as Fanrong also had a similar expression on her face.

They were looking at Ashen with wide eyes filled with curiosity and a desire to quench that curiosity.

Ashen didn't make them wait long as he began to narrate the story that he had prepared:

"It was about two years ago..."
