Chapter 193
“Roar!”
Suddenly, another dragon roar came from the depths of the vast wilderness. The aura of the voice seemed to be much stronger than the Pixiu beast that Xiao Chen and Sha Tian Buried had just killed.
“Seventh-grade Pixiu desolate beast?
Could it be the female Pixiu’s spouse or an elder? ”
Sha Tian Buried immediately heard the roar of the powerful Pixiu in the depths of the vast wilderness. His expression turned solemn as he sensed that the desolate beast was many times stronger than the Pixiu desolate beast he had just killed. If he was not wrong, it should be a seventh-grade Pixiu beast.
He could easily kill a sixth-grade Pixiu beast, but dealing with a seventh-grade Pixiu beast would be troublesome. This was because a seventh-grade Pixiu desolate beast’s strength was comparable to a human Dragon Elephant Realm expert, or even much stronger.
The sixth-grade Pixiu desolate beast had actually died rather quickly as it had underestimated its enemy. Before it could fully unleash its combat strength, it had been injured in the abdomen and organs by Xiao Chen. Following that, it had been severely injured by Sha Tian Buried’s palms, causing it to lose its confidence.
At that moment, it was already severely injured and could not unleash 50% of its combat strength. It should have launched a long-range attack and used a toxic energy bomb to deal with the enemy, but it was blinded by rage. It did not even activate its protective energy barrier and clashed head-on with the Dragon Elephant Realm expert, Sha Tian Buried. Tragedy naturally ensued — it was instantly killed by Sha Tian Buried’s palm.
“Could it be that another Pixiu desolate beast has appeared? Furthermore, it’s even stronger than the one that died?
Could it be specially here to kill me?
It can’t be, right?
Wouldn’t Grandfather be in danger!? ”
Xiao Chen naturally heard the dragon roar as he stopped in his tracks. His expression turned gloomy as he looked cautiously into the depths of the vast wilderness. The uneasiness in his heart intensified.
He was now completely convinced that something had happened to his grandfather. It did not make sense for so many powerful Pixiu desolate beasts to appear in the periphery of the vast wilderness. It was possible that these Pixiu desolate beasts had specially come from the central region of the vast wilderness to search for him and his grandfather.
This was because his grandfather had once killed a fifth-grade Pixiu desolate beast. The dead Pixiu desolate beast and the even stronger Pixiu desolate beast in the depths of the vast wilderness could very well be seeking revenge for the fifth-grade Pixiu desolate beast.
“Grandfather!”
When he thought of this possibility, Xiao Chen could no longer remain calm. He could not help but cry out, completely ignoring Sha Buried Heaven who was behind him. He broke into a run and sprinted toward the cave where he and his grandfather lived. At this point, he no longer cared whether Sha Buried Heaven was following him or not. If something had really happened to his grandfather, then everything would be meaningless.
“Xiao Chen, no!
That’s a Pi Xiu Desolate Beast above the seventh tier. You’re not its match yet. This child … “Sha Zang Tian was shocked when he saw Xiao Chen suddenly running in the direction of the Pi Xiu Desolate Beast’s roar. He hurriedly tried to stop him, but Xiao Chen completely ignored him and ran far away in the blink of an eye. Sha Zang Tian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Oh?
Young Master Xiao Chen seemed to have called him grandpa just now?
But did he still have a grandfather?
The grandfather he mentioned should be the person who raised Young Master Xiao Chen, but was his grandfather living in the Great Wilderness?
If that’s the case, didn’t Young Master Xiao Chen also grow up in the treacherous Great Wilderness?
“No wonder Young Master Xiao Chen has such strength at such a young age. It seems like it’s not a coincidence. He actually has a powerful grandfather, but I wonder if I know this mysterious grandfather of his?
Sigh, there’s no point in thinking too much. I better stop Young Master Xiao Chen first. If anything were to happen to Young Master Xiao Chen, how would I be able to face Old Master’s life-saving grace …
“Swish!”
Sha Zang Tian stood in place and muttered to himself for a moment. His expression constantly changed. Suddenly, his figure flashed, leaving behind an afterimage while his real body had already dashed several feet away.
This time, Sha Zang Tian chose to fly at full speed. Just now, Xiao Chen was nearly injured by the sixth-grade Pixiu’s attack. Now that he thought about it, he still felt a lingering fear. Furthermore, an even more powerful Pixiu desolate beast was about to appear, so he had to be even more careful. If he didn’t release the Berserk God Bestowment, he might not even be a match for the seventh-grade Pixiu desolate beast.
As for Xiao Chen’s demonified strength, he would only be instantly killed by the seventh-grade Pixiu desolate beast. He wouldn’t be able to injure the seventh-grade Pixiu desolate beast at all. This was because the seventh-grade Pixiu desolate beast’s body had been strengthened. Its defense was several times stronger than a human Dragon Elephant Realm expert. With Xiao Chen’s current offensive strength, it was impossible for him to break the seventh-grade Pixiu desolate beast’s physical defense.
In less than fifteen minutes, Sha Zang Tian caught up to the sprinting Xiao Chen. When Sha Zang Tian saw that the Pixiu beast hadn’t appeared, he heaved a sigh of relief. However, he didn’t dare to be careless. He sped up and overtook Xiao Chen. Furthermore, he blocked in front of Xiao Chen and sternly berated, “Xiao Chen, stop!”
“Get out of the way!”
Xiao Chen was worried about his grandfather’s safety. When he saw Sha Zang Tian blocking the way, he yelled out and didn’t say anything else. He pulled out his wooden sword and swung it at Sha Zang Tian. It was a complete mess. He was only at the third stage of the White Tiger Realm, and he actually dared to make a move against an old monster at the first stage of the Dragon Elephant Realm. Even if he wasn’t the only one in the world, it was still rare.
“Uh …”
Sha Zang Tian didn’t expect that Xiao Chen would make a move against him. He was slightly stunned and immediately reacted. Thus, he quickly retreated and explained while not knowing whether to laugh or cry, “Xiao Chen, you misunderstood me again.
“Xiao Chen, you’ve misunderstood me again. I’m really here to help you. That angry dragon roar just now belonged to at least a seventh rank Pi Xiu. It’s probably the mate of the female Pi Xiu that we just killed. You should leave this place quickly. Leave that male Pi Xiu to me because I’m not sure if I can kill it!
I might have to flee for my life in the end! ”
Swish!
After Sha Zang Tian finished speaking, he didn’t wait for Xiao Chen to respond. He did a somersault and a 360-degree turn, changed his direction, and rushed into the depths of the wasteland. He vanished in the blink of an eye. His terrifying speed made Xiao Chen feel powerless.
“Let’s look for Grandfather first. Senior Sha should be able to protect himself. Once I find Grandfather and cure his Pixiu poison, I will help Senior Sha to kill the Pixiu desolate beast!”
In fact, Xiao Chen didn’t really want to make a move against Sha Zang Tian. He was just anxious and worried that something would happen to his grandfather. Therefore, he swung his sword out of reflex and swept away everything in his way. Right now, he had already stopped. He looked at the direction where Sha Zang Tian disappeared with a complicated expression and murmured softly.
Swish!
Xiao Chen was a straightforward person. Since Sha Zang Tian had already left, he wouldn’t be able to help Sha Zang Tian even if he went. Instead, he would be a burden. Therefore, he burst out and deviated from his original direction. Clearly, he was still keeping an eye on Sha Zang Tian.
Clearly, Xiao Chen had been out of the wasteland for several months and had experienced many things. His mind was gradually maturing. Although his grandfather was powerful, he might not be Sha Zang Tian’s match. If Sha Zang Tian came for the two of them and brought Sha Zang Tian to the cave, he would be inviting a wolf into the house. The consequences would be unimaginable.
“Roar!”
“B * stard!
I will kill you! ”
As soon as Xiao Chen ran for two kilometers, the Pixiu Beast’s furious roar and Sha Zang Tian’s furious rebuke came from the depths of the wasteland to his right. Judging from the sounds, Sha Zang Tian should be less than five kilometers away from Xiao Chen.
“Senior, it seems like Xiao Chen has misunderstood you. Hang in there. If you can’t, just run. I, Xiao Chen, have picked up my life. As long as I see my grandfather, I’ll definitely ask him to help you!” Xiao Chen heard Sha Zang Tian’s furious roar, and a hint of guilt appeared on his face.
Sha Zang Tian dared to fight a grade-seven Pixiu Beast for Xiao Chen without any regard for his own safety. He was only trying to buy time for Xiao Chen to escape. There was no doubt that he had ulterior motives. If he had ulterior motives, then Sha Zang Tian’s shrewdness was too deep and terrifying.
Xiao Chen had already begun to believe that Sha Zang Tian was genuinely treating him well. If he still trusted the wrong person, then he would have to admit that he was blind and unlucky.
