Chapter 56: The True Crisis
“What?”
Although she didn’t understand verbally, Ms. Xinyu Zhang’s experience as a guard allowed her to react quickly. Following Su Jiu’s gaze, she indeed saw several pairs of glowing red “lanterns” moving continuously.
She froze for a few breaths, then lightly tapped her forehead, used her Avatar, and quickly shouted to her surroundings: “Monster attack!”
The next moment, white light dispersed, and a silver-white longsword was firmly in her hand. She glanced at Su Jiu, who looked calm, then turned to face the front, her gaze not daring to waver. Based on the position of their eyes, it must be some large monster.
Why did Su Jiu discover it so quickly and appear so calm, so calm that it was unlike her usual impression?
Upon hearing the shout, the students immersed in casual conversation abruptly stopped what they were doing, their expressions surprised. They looked in the direction Ms. Xinyu Zhang had shouted and saw a figure walk out first.
A sturdy build, and the traditional Dragon Hunter attire…
As the figure slowly emerged, their tense expressions gradually faded. Ms. Xinyu Zhang’s tension also slowly dissipated. She breathed a sigh of relief, waved to the students, and said with a smile, “It’s Instructor Chen. He should be here to pick us up.”
Everyone’s tense emotions subsided, and the scene even returned to the previously peaceful state, with the same amount of idle chatter.
“It’s him, the Dragon Hunter with the Ancient God Sect’s token…”
As everyone relaxed, Su Jiu’s expression turned cold. She slowly gathered strength, scales instantly covering the side of her face, and a vortex began to form in the sky. However, the darkness of night prevented everyone from noticing.
Su Jiu’s voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but it made Ms. Xinyu Zhang beside her slightly startled. If what Su Jiu had said before was true, then her team leader was the Dragon Hunter pursuing her, so…
“Is it you, Xinyu?” The voice was deep, as if he hadn’t spoken for a long time, with a slight hoarseness.
But Ms. Xinyu Zhang could still feel that the person was indeed her team leader. She glanced at Su Jiu, who was still looking in that direction and hadn’t moved. The hand holding the sword hilt couldn’t help but clench tightly, then loosen, and she slowly walked towards them.
“Brother Feng, I’m leading the team… Why did you come in person?” Ms. Xinyu Zhang tried to keep her voice as normal as possible.
Why would she feel afraid of a student with a bad reputation?
But she remained vigilant, not dispersing her beast soldiers or Avatar. Her steps were slow, as if waiting for Lin Feng’s reply.
“Clang!”
Pushing aside the grass in front of him, Lin Feng slowly revealed himself. He looked somewhat haggard, his clothes stained with large patches of blood, and several large Wild Plains Lions followed closely behind him.
Seeing this, Ms. Xinyu Zhang’s heart suddenly clenched. It was almost exactly as Su Jiu had said – Wild Plains Lions following behind…
She glanced at Su Jiu again and noticed that her finger seemed to be pointing towards the sky, as if brewing something.
The surrounding crowd also noticed the situation. Seeing the several huge Wild Plains Lions, Xiao Yu, who was at the front, narrowed her eyes slightly. A flash of white light passed, and a red lizard crawled at her feet. She had heard Su Jiu’s words just now… the words “Ancient God Sect.”
In this wilderness, she was more inclined to trust Su Jiu than this chief instructor she had barely met.
A Dun and a few others also slowly stood up. They were all companions, and they understood Xiao Yu’s actions and thoughts perfectly.
Lin Feng noticed that the gazes of the people around him had changed. He pointed to the lions beside him and asked with some confusion, “You’re afraid of them, right?”
“Get lost!”
Immediately, he frowned and roared at the Wild Plains Lions. The Wild Plains Lions’ gazes swept over everyone, and then they slowly retreated backward with their tails between their legs.
“Are you relieved now? Xinyu, you too, quickly put down your weapons. What is all this?”
Seeing that they had left, Lin Feng slowly showed a smile, but his slightly numb face looked somewhat frightening when he smiled.
Then he walked towards everyone. However, as he moved further away, the Wild Plains Lions seemed to follow, drawn by the scent.
Seeing this, Ms. Xinyu Zhang’s expression became even more nervous, the fingertips holding the sword turning slightly white. This newly appointed superior was too strange, being with monsters.
And those monsters were not his beast pets.
Could it be true, as Su Jiu had said, that he was from the Ancient God Sect?
“Xinyu, can I ask you for one thing…?” The male voice was hoarse and deep.
Lost in thought, Lin Feng had already reached her. A strong, fishy smell aggressively invaded Ms. Xinyu Zhang’s nostrils. She looked up at his haggard face and instinctively replied, “What is it?”
But the next moment, she saw a trace of fierceness in his eyes, and a strange smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“Die for my wife and children!”
The next moment, with a “bang” in his hand, white light flashed, and a long spear suddenly appeared, surrounded by golden light.
“Whiz!” As the sound of breaking through the air echoed.
The long spear swept across, leaving a golden light in the night. Its target was Ms. Xinyu Zhang’s waist. If she were hit, she would instantly lose her ability to fight.
“Clang!”
Without thinking, Ms. Xinyu Zhang blocked with her longsword. A massive force struck her hand, and numbness instantly surged into her arm. The sword was knocked away, and she was sent flying seven or eight meters away, crashing into a tree.
Everyone suddenly reacted at this moment, but they were a little shocked as they looked at the two deep gouges plowed on the ground.
Their fellow Dragon Hunter instructor was actually sent flying so far. Before they could think further, Ms. Xinyu Zhang spat out a mouthful of blood, her scattered hair falling around her. She looked at the surroundings with an ugly expression and shouted, “Run! He’s from the Ancient God Sect! He’s War General Level, and we might not be able to defeat him even if we team up.”
She regretted not believing Su Jiu’s words… but she couldn’t blame herself. It was just that Su Jiu’s words were too unbelievable. A normal student with such experiences could at least brag about it for a lifetime.
“Trying to run? Heh heh…”
Lin Feng sneered in a low voice. With a wave of his arm, a streak of golden External Qi shot into the sky. Amidst the rustling of the surrounding grass, many Wild Plains Lions suddenly sprang out from all directions.
And the leading, largest Wild Plains Lion beside Lin Feng suddenly roared in Su Jiu’s direction, the immense sound shaking off countless leaves.
It smelled him!
The scent of the killer of the little leader.
Killing her would surely make the leader very happy.
It growled and approached, its eyes already filled with cruelty as it looked at Su Jiu.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu lightly flicked her arm. A scarlet flame surrounded her, and her large saber reappeared in her hand. She intended to meet the charge, but a golden light struck. The next moment, the spear attack instantly met her.
“You’re their Class Leader, aren’t you? I know you… you’re a student with a very good figure.”
“Clang! Clang!”
Her arm felt weak. She looked up and met a deranged face. Before she could catch her breath, another heavy blow came at her.
“Roar!”
And the head lion roared triumphantly, charging towards Su Jiu as if in an unoccupied realm.
“Bang!”
Just as it was about to pounce, a vortex engulfed in Frost Blossom fiercely descended from the sky, smashing into its blood-red left eye like a meteor. Before it could feel the stinging cold, its other eye was filled with deep fear!
Several identical vortices were smashing towards its face.
It was like a divine descent, without any warning!
