Chapter 267: Follow

Very soon, they found the ten beasts that were killed by Yuanen Huihui.

There were wounds on all the heads of these beasts, their crystal cores clearly taken away already. But Lan Xuanyu wasn’t disappointed at all. They had just started and he had only killed ten beasts.

Just at that moment, there were loud roars that resounded not far off. Everyone turned to look and saw more than 20 beasts, over two meters tall with long tails and sharp forelimbs. They were relying on their strong legs to jump forward as they charged over to their side.

“Fatty, summon. Distract them,” Lan Xuanyu ordered immediately.

Qian Lei, who was next to him, took out the coin of summoning and the Gate of Summoning was opened. With the golden-patterned Blue Silver Gra.s.s’ a.s.sistance, a ground dragon rushed out and forged ahead.

Lan Xuanyu got everyone to turn around and run while observing the battling situation between the ground dragon and those beasts.

The situation seemed great as the ground dragon had a very strong defense, so it was very difficult for those blue-skinned, kangaroo-like beasts to break it. The ground dragon managed to kill quite a few of them in a short while and gradually became unable to hold back when it was attacked from all sides.

Bing Tianliang said, “Not strong enough, let’s go over and fight, it should be easier to destroy them.”

Lan Xuanyu shook his head and said, “We’re not killing them. Releasing Soul Skills would drain our physical performance. We have very limited food and water and we’ll need to replenish if we drain our Soul Power and energy. We have no idea what can or cannot be eaten around here. Right now, the other candidates must have started killing all these beasts already but they will soon realize that when their food supply is low, their physical performance will deteriorate. Even if we have to kill, we have to save our energy for the last day. Currently, we will only take advantage and will not kill. We’re only exploring for now.”

After that, he led the team to turn around and left, not even waiting for the other beasts to leave to pick up those crystal cores from the beasts they killed.

Very soon, everyone understood why Lan Xuanyu didn’t wait: because he wanted to keep up with Yuanen Huihui.

Following the contact signals left behind by Liu Feng, they saw another batch of corpses very soon. There were over 20 of them and they were all medium-sized beasts with thorns all over their bodies. More than half of these dead beasts had a wound on their head – the crystal cores were taken, while more than half of the corpses were still intact.

“Dig out the crystal cores,” Lan Xuanyu ordered immediately.

He was the first one to do it and under everyone’s gaze, pieces of golden scales appeared on the surface of his right hand and sharp claws grew out of his fingertips. His claws dug into the beast’s head like he was cutting tofu and he grabbed the crystal core, which was about the size of a copper coin, out of its head.

On the other side, Yu Tian was brandis.h.i.+ng his Mo Sword to chop and still wasn’t as fast as him.

“I’ll do it, I’m fast. you guys keep a lookout,” Lan Xuanyu spoke, quickly retrieving all the crystal cores.

What surprised everyone was that after he retrieved all the crystal cores, he didn’t keep them for himself. Instead, he handed them all to Lan Mengqin.

“You’re the strongest, you shall keep them. If we split up or something happens, you’ll bring it out at the end and split it with everyone.”

Lan Mengqin took the crystal cores and kept staring at Lan Xuanyu’s right hand, which was covered in golden scales. She didn’t know why but when she saw his hand, she palpitated in fear. It was as if there was something terrifying hidden in his body.

“Continue,” Lan Xuanyu said, leading the team forward. The harvest this time proved that he was right. Yuanen Huihui may have been strong but with so many beasts, he didn’t have enough time to retrieve all the crystal cores.

Very soon, they saw another seven to eight corpses of the beasts but there were no crystal cores left behind this time. Perhaps because the group of beasts was smaller, Yuanen Huihui had time to dig out the crystal cores.

From these few battles, it was obvious that Yuanen Huihui was very strong. In just a few moves, he managed to kill three waves of alien beasts.

Lan Mengqin was at the back of the team, nudging Dong Qianqiu, a hint of dissatisfaction appearing in her beautiful eyes.

Dong Qianqiu knew her for a very long time, so she naturally understood what she meant.

At Heaven Luo Planet, Lan Mengqin was the true number one of the younger generation and was very blecapa. In her opinion, whatever Yuanen Huihui could do, she could do it too!

The eight of them were simply following behind and picking up leftovers, getting barely over ten crystal cores. Also, their overall strength as a whole should be stronger than Yuanen Huihui. Even if they had to fight headfirst with a group of beasts, they should be able to deal with it and reap a bigger harvest! Why must they do this? What Lan Xuanyu said made sense but this seemed overly cautious. It was also a little despicable and that was what she didn’t like.

Dong Qianqiu shook her head slightly towards her. Compared to everyone there, other than Liu Feng and Qian Lei, she was the one who had battled alongside Lan Xuanyu the most, so she knew his abilities best. The chap could often turn the foul and rotten into the rare and ethereal, so there must be a reason why he was being so cautious.

Lan Mengqin pouted but didn’t say anything in the end.

Just at that moment, a figure flashed in front of them and was headed in their direction – it was Liu Feng returning.

Liu Feng’s figure moved swiftly and landed in front of Lan Xuanyu with his White Dragon Spear in his hand as he whispered, “Yuanen Huihui has encountered danger, there were hundreds of beasts surrounding him.”

Lan Xuanyu’s eyes lit up and he said, “Lead the way, let’s go take a look.”

Liu Feng turned around and led the way as everyone followed behind, maintaining their formation. They went over two hills that were around 300 meters high and saw from a distance a figure that was akin to a star. It was jumping very quickly on the hills and there were lightrays that shot out towards its surroundings from time to time.

At that moment, Lan Xuanyu and the rest were already on top of a small hill. They were able to see everything happening below from that position.

There were at least over a hundred beasts coming in from all directions. These beasts were not from the same group as they had different forms. Running in front was obviously Yuanen Huihui and he seemed to be in a difficult position at the moment, with hundreds of beasts chasing after him.

As he ran, the Purple Star Spirit Bow in his hand kept shooting out arrows and injured some beasts from time to time. However, the number of enemies were simply too large, so he could only rely on his speed to try to find a place to run to. These beasts seemed to hate him a lot and they were very familiar with the terrain, so they kept surrounding him.

“Should we help?” Bing Tianliang turned around and asked Lan Xuanyu.

Lan Xuanyu shook his head and said, “Let’s not rush. Observe first.”

Although Yuanen Huihui was in a tight corner, he still had cultivation and wasn’t slow at all, the possibility of being completely surrounded was very low. Also, Lan Xuanyu could tell with one glance that although he was running, he was running within a certain area. It was clear that he couldn’t bear to leave the bodies of those beasts he had killed.

Among those beasts chasing after him, there was one type that was extremely fast and was the biggest threat to him. This type of beast had a dark blue body with purple markings. They had horns on their heads and their backs were covered with short thorns. They had four limbs and could run like the wind. It was their chase that caused Yuanen Huihui to be lethargic. This beast that looked like a leopard was also the main force of the siege.

In just a while, there were over ten corpses in the area, but most of the beasts were still chasing after him relentlessly.

Lan Xuanyu and his partners were observing from the top of the hill. He appeared very calm and didn’t have any intention to help.

“Everyone, please take note of Yuanen Huihui’s abilities,” Lan Xuanyu reminded them.

There was no doubt that only in the midst of danger would one would exhibit one’s strongest ability. As a strong Soul Master with five rings, an elite among his peers, everyone obviously paid attention to Yuanen Huihui’s abilities.
