Chapter 528: Might of a God Beast
Xie Yu was stunned for a moment. This person was preparing to flee before he had even finished talking. It seemed that, at the very least, this trash knew how weak he was.
Xie Yu’s philosophy has always been to deal with troubles by pulling up the very roots. This guy was too naive to think that he could escape just because he had a spirit beast that could fly. Xie Yu turned towards Yan Jiao and Shi Huidi to say, “You two wait here. I’ll be back soon.”
“Senior Brother Xie, you have to kill that disgusting pervert so that Senior Sister won’t be sad anymore because of him! He’s humiliated Senior Sister so much, you have to rip him to pieces!” said Yan Jiao angrily.
Xie Yu looked towards Shi Huidi earnestly and said, “Senior Sister, don’t worry, I’ll definitely kill this person.”
“Xiao Huo,” called Xie Yu. A red light flew out from his spirit beast pouch, then there was the sound of a clear bird cry. A bird that had fire-red feathers was chirping towards Xie Yu happily.
“Alright, Xiao Huo, let’s go catch the running mice and let them witness the might of a god beast.” Xie Yu jumped onto Xiao Huo’s back and went after Ning Shu.
As Ning Shu was fleeing, she suddenly felt that something was off. She sensed fear coming from her connection with the lightning wind eagle and the lightning wind eagle was slowing down too.
Ning Shu glanced back and found that Xie Yu was standing on the back of a fire-red bird. He was gradually catching up.
Was that… a phoenix?
Their speed was only increasing. It was clear that the red bird could go a lot faster than the lightning wind eagle. Ning Shu started to panic a little. If the male lead caught up to her, was there any chance that she could survive?
“Fly towards the sea,” commanded Ning Shu. The lightning wind eagle really wanted to get away from the oppressive aura of the god beast so after hearing what Ning Shu said, it immediately turned towards the sea.
When Xie Yu saw that the pair ahead were speeding up, he gave a cold scoff. “What a pointless last struggle. Xiao Huo, speed up. Senior Sister is still waiting for us to get back. There’s no point wasting time here.”
The phoenix gave a cry, then flapped its beautiful red wings to soar towards the big and dumb bird in front of it.
Ning Shu was full-out panicking now. Xie Yu was almost about to catch up to them.
“Stop running. Even if you try, you can’t escape.” Xie Yu revolved the primordial energy in his body and attacked Ning Shu with a ball of energy.
Ning Shu was instantly hit with the sensation that her organs had been forcefully shifted out of place and blood spilled out the corners of her lips. If it weren’t for the armor that Old Man Wei gave her, she probably would’ve already died. Ning Shu paid no attention to the pain in her body and focused on giving the lightning wind eagle some of her own primordial energy. With Ning Shu’s help, the lightning wind eagle desperately increased its speed as it continued flying towards the sea.
When Xie Yu saw that his attack didn’t seem to have injured his opponent, surprise appeared on his face. He had used eighty percent of his strength, so he had been expecting for this person to be smashed into paste, but this person was actually fine and had just coughed out a mouthful of blood.
A scorching light flashed through his eyes. It seems like this person had some sort of protective treasure on him. Xie Yu’s expression became a little more serious. “Xiao Huo, speed up. This guy seems to possess some kind of treasure.”
The phoenix gave a cry, then sped up to catch up with the lightning wind eagle.
Ning Shu had already reached the sea. She stood on the lightning wind eagle and looked towards Xie Yu who was standing majestically on top of the flaming phoenix.
Ning Shu spat out the blood in her mouth, then had the lightning wind eagle enter her spirit beast pouch so her body started falling straight down into the ocean. With a splash, she was gone.
Xie Yu’s expression turned serious as he stared in slight surprise at the waves. He thought that this person was just a useless good-for-nothing, but unexpectedly this person had the courage to jump straight into the sea. He had chosen without hesitation to jump into the sea rather than fall into his hands.
Xie Yu suddenly felt a trace of apprehension. This person clearly knew that there were all sorts of spirit beasts in the ocean, but he still jumped in. If it was him, he would’ve chosen to fight to the death rather than to jump into the sea.
However, Xie Yu forgot one thing, which was that Ning Shu was a complete noob at cultivation and had no combat power at all.
Xie Yu was starting to regret not having killed this guy earlier. He had wanted to obtain this person’s protective equipment so he wanted to kill him in a way that wouldn’t damage the equipment. However, this hesitation ended up allowing the guy to get away.
