Chapter 379 - 379 Xie’er’s Gratitude
When Xia’er used his fire skill, Shen Fei seized the opportunity and teleported behind Xia’er.
Whoosh!
A long sword flashed past like lightning and struck the giant wolf in the head. Green blood splattered everywhere as the wolf’s head was torn apart.
“Roar!!” When the other two giant wolves saw that their companion had been killed, they gave a deafening roar.
“Hmph, I’ll let you have a taste of the power of my Burning Sun Heavenly Palm Strike!” Xia’er shouted.
Fiery red flames gathered on Xia’er’s right arm like a twisting dragon, and he threw out a palm strike. The fiery projection scorched the very air as it hurled toward the wolves.
Flame Manifestation was Xia’er’s martial soul ability. He could utilize strong moves and boost it with astonishing strength.
Faced with Xia’er’s attack, the two giant wolves immediately panicked and kept snarling, appearing frightened.
The flaming palm crashed into the two giant wolves and exploded. In an instant, the two wolves were blasted back several meters. Their chests were blown apart, and their bodies were covered in blood. They were on their last breaths.
Xia’er glanced at the fallen beasts proudly and said mockingly, “How is it? Are you scared? Haha, I advise you stupid beasts to obediently submit! Otherwise, I’ll kill you all right now!”
Shen Fei frowned when he heard that. “Don’t be too proud. There’s a connection between exotic beasts. Don’t cause trouble. Let’s lure them somewhere else before we go back and meet up with the others.”
“Why should I listen to you?” Xia’er curled his lips in disdain.
“Hmph! If you insist on not listening to me, don’t blame me when sh*t hits the fan next time.” Shen Fei’s tone was cold as he spoke. Then, he took the lead and ran toward the east.
“Hey…!”
Seeing that Shen Fei had actually left him behind, Xia’er’s expression changed and he rushed to follow.
…
Shen Fei sprinted the whole way. Not long after, he arrived at the central area of the forest. There was a mountain peak here. It was named The Valley because right at its feet was a thriving valley.
There were many exotic beasts here. There were at least hundreds, or even thousands of them. The beasts in this valley were all high-grade Count-rank.
However, the strongest ones in Shan Gu were the two Overlord-rank red-striped tigers and black-winged griffins.
“Shen Fei! How dare you leave me alone!” Xia’er cried angrily as he chased after him.
Shen Fei did not bother to reply. He did not expect that Xia’er would still follow him into The Valley.
“Roar!!!”
Suddenly, roars came from ahead of them. Shen Fei looked up and saw two Overlord-rank Red-striped Tigers fighting with three low-grade Count-rank exotic beasts. Moreover, they had the clear advantage and easily dealt with those exotic beasts.
Seeing this, Xia’er was so scared that his face turned pale. He quickly turned around and fled.
“Shen Fei, you’re too cruel! I hate you!” Xia’er’s angry cries could be heard in the distance. Xia’er cursed as he ran out of The Valley.
Shen Fei shook his head and sighed. “Forget it. Xia’er won’t be of much help anyway. It’s better to let him go alone.”
Shen Fei did not care about Xia’er and walked on alone.
“Eh? What’s that?” Suddenly, Shen Fei stopped in his tracks and stared at a lake not far away in surprise. There was a Silver-scaled Snake King resting on the shore.
“This is the Silver-scaled Snake King. It’s a high-level exotic beast with formidable combat strength! ” Shen Fei said to himself.
“Hiss!” The Silver-scaled Snake King seemed to have sensed Shen Fei’s existence. It immediately noticed Shen Fei’s presence and hissed angrily.
“Hah! It actually took the initiative to attack. It’s indeed a courageous exotic beast!” Shen Fei laughed mockingly.
He then brandished his sharp sword and dashed forward, heading straight for the Silver-scaled Snake King. As he ran, he summoned several phantom swords around him.
The phantom swords glinted. Each of them held powerful energy fluctuations. The air trembled, and great bursts of energy swept out, as strong as a hurricane.
In the blink of an eye, Shen Fei and the Silver-scaled Snake King were engaged in a fierce battle. After a fierce clash, Shen Fei gained the upper hand and killed the Silver-scaled Snake King.
Right after it died, a cry for help came from somewhere ahead.
“Help!!”
It was Xia’er’s voice. Shen Fei frowned at this. Then, he quickly rushed in the direction of the cry.
Xia’er was flanked in by a python and a giant wolf.
“B*stards! Get lost!” Shen Fei shouted. His legs stomped on the ground, and he flew up. With his sword, he hacked at the python’s neck, killing it at once. Shen Fei followed that attack with a kick aimed at the giant wolf.
Xia’er’s body was covered in wounds and he was bleeding. He looked miserable.
“B*stard, it’s all your fault. If it weren’t for you, I would have lured the exotic beasts away long ago,” Xia’er said angrily as he glared at Shen Fei.
“Shut up! Do you think all exotic beasts are as stupid as you?” Shen Fei reprimanded.
Shen Fei suddenly felt two powerful auras. “Damn it! Two more exotic beasts had arrived! Run!”
He quickly pulled Xia’er and ran, saying, “I don’t want to die with you!”
Although Xia’was conceited, he was not arrogant enough to think that he could defeat a high-grade Emperor-rank exotic beast alone.
“Shen Fei, you’d leave me to die in a ditch! Let go of me and let me go back to killing those beasts!” Xia’er struggled stubbornly.
“Shut up! If you keep on talking nonsense, believe it or not, I’ll kill you right now!” Shen Fei warned coldly.
Hearing this, Xia’er immediately quieted down and did not dare say anything else.
Shen Fei and Xia’er had just run a short distance when they encountered two other beasts crying out.
“Roar!”
The two exotic beasts were both low-grade Overlord-rank beasts, but they were very powerful.
“F*ck!” Shen Fei cursed. He knew that he was no match for these two beasts, so he did not fight them head-on. He turned around and ran with Xia’er, but the two beasts had already blocked off their route of escape. They had no choice but to fight.
Two Overlord-rank exotic beasts was already quite stressful, not to mention the fact that one of them was a Red-striped Tiger.
...
Seeing Shen Fei in trouble, Xia’er could not help but mock, “Shen Fei, aren’t you supposed to be super-powerful? Don’t you want to protect me?”
“Shut up!” Shen Fei glared at Xia’er.
“Roar!” An exotic beast took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, opening its bloody maw to bite Shen Fei.
Shen Fei nimbly dodged the attack and countered with a kick to the beast’s stomach.
The exotic beast spat out a large mouthful of blood and fell to the ground, twitching a few times before it stopped breathing.
The other exotic beast roared angrily and jumped up, opening its sharp fangs, intending to chomp down on him.
“Hmph! You’re courting death!” Shen Fei’s gaze was cold as he held the sword in his hand and charged at the strange beast.
