Chapter 66 – Professional scavenger


In the instant Ye Ling spoke, the Shadow Demon Wolf leader bolted into the darkness at an incredible speed.

Blood Phantom was equally swift. As soon as Ye Ling’s words fell, she moved in response, quickly chasing after the wolf and disappearing into the dark forest.

“Awooo!”

Not long after, a wail echoed from the distant forest.

Immediately following that, a dark figure plummeted from the sky at an astonishing speed.

“Move!”

Huo Xian’er was startled and quickly patted the Earth Azure Dragon, urging it loudly.

Upon receiving the order, the Earth Azure Dragon swiftly retreated a few steps.

Just as the Earth Azure Dragon came to a halt, a thunderous crash resounded from where it had been standing.

“Boom!!”

The dark figure slammed heavily into the ground, causing the earth to tremble and dust to fly everywhere.

Simultaneously, a small figure darted through the towering trees, finally landing steadily on the ground.

“Cough, cough!”

Amidst the thick dust, Huo Xian’er quickly covered her mouth and nose.

Visibility was already low in the darkness, and now with the dust swirling, it was even worse.

After a while, the dust began to settle.

At the spot where the dark figure had fallen, there were two silhouettes.

Upon closer inspection, who else could it be but Ye Ling and his spiritual pet?

Huo Xian’er immediately recognized Ye Ling.

She jumped down from the Earth Azure Dragon’s back and hurried over.

As she got closer, Huo Xian’er finally saw clearly.

The dark figure that had plummeted from the sky was indeed the fleeing Shadow Demon Wolf leader.

However, the Shadow Demon Wolf leader now looked quite miserable.

Having fallen from such a great height, it had created a deep pit in the ground, and its entire body seemed embedded in the earth.

Blood was oozing from its mouth, and its limbs twitched slightly on the ground.

If not for the slight rise and fall of its belly, Huo Xian’er might have thought the Shadow Demon Wolf leader was already dead.

In contrast, Blood Phantom beside Ye Ling looked completely unscathed.

The red Rainbow Blood Garment she wore didn’t even have a speck of dust on it.

Huo Xian’er knew very well how powerful the Shadow Demon Wolf leader was—First Rank, Seventh Level.

It was only one level below her Earth Azure Dragon.

Even her Earth Azure Dragon would struggle to defeat it in a single round.

Yet, Ye Ling’s spiritual pet had not only caught up with the fleeing Shadow Demon Wolf leader but also defeated it.

Such a feat in such a short time was terrifying.

If it were the Earth Azure Dragon, it would probably have to watch helplessly as the Shadow Demon Wolf leader escaped.

The Earth Azure Dragon excelled in frontal combat, with strength and defense as its advantages, but it wasn’t fast and wasn’t good at chasing enemies.

Moreover, Ye Ling’s spiritual pet had just thrown the massive Shadow Demon Wolf leader back from such a height.

This indicated that Ye Ling’s spiritual pet was not lacking in strength.

Seeing Ye Ling again, Huo Xian’er hadn’t expected his abilities to have changed so drastically.

It was an earth-shattering transformation.

Ye Ling didn’t pay much attention to Huo Xian’er as she approached.

The reason he had saved her earlier was twofold.

First, the Shadow Demon Wolves here were incredibly annoying, howling from time to time.

Second, when he had first met Huo Xian’er in the wild, she hadn’t shown any hostility towards him.

At the very least, they were still classmates.

Since they were classmates, he would help if he could.

That was all there was to it.

If Huo Xian’er knew this, she might be furious.

After all, she was a school beauty—did she have no charm at all?

Of course, Ye Ling wouldn’t say this out loud, and Huo Xian’er couldn’t possibly guess it.

Blood Phantom naturally wouldn’t let the Shadow Demon Wolf leader’s blood go to waste.

Facing the immobilized Shadow Demon Wolf leader, Blood Phantom easily extracted its blood.

Combined with the blood from the previous Shadow Demon Wolves, Blood Phantom could have a feast.

As a professional scavenger, Ye Ling wouldn’t let the bodies of the Shadow Demon Wolf leader and the other Shadow Demon Wolves go to waste.

Not only the Shadow Demon Wolf leader but even the fallen Shadow Demon Wolves couldn’t escape Ye Ling’s knife.

Without speaking to Huo Xian’er beside him, Ye Ling began to dismantle the evolution materials from the Shadow Demon Wolf leader.

Seeing Ye Ling ignoring her, Huo Xian’er couldn’t help but feel a bit annoyed.

Did she really have no charm at all? Not even worth a glance?

Although Huo Xian’er was very beautiful, to Ye Ling, the evolution materials of the Shadow Demon Wolf leader were more attractive at the moment.

“Classmate Huo, I suggest you take a rest while you can. It’s not safe to stay here; the smell of blood will attract many demons.”

“Staying here any longer will only become more dangerous.”

While seriously dismantling the evolution materials, Ye Ling kindly reminded Huo Xian’er.
