Chapter 609
“Could it be that we three brothers are doomed today?”
Xiao Chen’s heart was heavy. He raised his head to look at the flying Xue Jiao and asked the Lion King solemnly, “Da Huang, how sure are you that you can kill that birdman in the sky?”
“Birdman?”
The Lion King was slightly stunned, but he immediately reacted and replied seriously, “10%. If I forcefully increase my level, I can have an additional 20%.”
“Forcefully increase your level?”
Xiao Chen did not understand. Suddenly, his expression changed because he remembered the time when the Lion King forcefully increased his strength by burning his life energy in Blood Sun City. He understood the meaning of the Lion King’s words and immediately shouted angrily, “Da Huang!
You are not allowed to burn your life energy in exchange for strength, do you hear me?
If you use it again, I, your big brother, will be angry. I forbid you to do it again!
Understand? ”
“Eh …” This was the first time the Lion King heard Xiao Chen’s angry shout. He was at a loss and embarrassedly sent a sound transmission, “Big brother, I was just saying it casually, hehe.”
“You can’t say it casually either!”
At this moment, Xiao Chen was incomparably majestic and domineering, very much like a big brother.
This kind of thing must be taken seriously. Burning one’s life energy was not a fun thing. It was something that could cost one’s life. As long as one burned his life energy, there was basically no way to survive. Last time, the Lion King had taken precious healing pills and longevity pills, but it was still difficult for him to survive. It was only after a few months that he miraculously came back to life.
Xiao Chen absolutely would not allow Da Huang to burn his life energy. Even now, he still had lingering fear when he thought about it. This time, even if he and the Lion King died together, he would not allow the Lion King to burn his life energy. Brothers could sacrifice their lives for each other, but burning one’s life energy was too tragic.
“Yes, big brother, I promise you. Don’t be angry, I feel so scared.” The Lion King shrunk his head and admitted his mistake in fear.
“That’s right.”
Seeing that The Lion King had agreed, Xiao Chen’s expression softened. He gently stroked The Lion King’s head and said helplessly, “Da Huang, we can’t win against a strong enemy, so we can only see if we can escape. You continue to run, I’ll ask Xiao Sha to cover us. It’s us who are burdening Xiao Sha. Luckily, he has the ability to travel through the void. If he wants to leave, no one can be bothered to stop him.”
“En!”
The Lion King stopped talking to Xiao Chen through telepathy and ran away at full speed. He did not choose to go in the direction of the Fire Spirit City, but to the west instead. He was not an idiot. They were now being hunted. If he went to pick up Dongfang Qingwu, Dongfang Qingwu would be in danger too.
“A lake?”
Xiao Chen looked around and found that they had left the forest and entered a plain. There seemed to be a huge lake in the distance. His eyes lit up and he hurriedly sent a telepathy to the Lion King, “Da Huang, run to the lake. Once we reach the lake, we will immediately go into it. We are no match for them on the shore, so let’s fight them at the bottom of the lake!”
“Good idea!
Hahaha! ”
The Lion King and Xiao Chen were telepathically connected, so he naturally understood what Xiao Chen was thinking. Although he and Xiao Chen grew up in the Wasteland, they were very good swimmers. If they were good swimmers, they would have no problem fighting underwater. If they were not good swimmers, they would be able to close the gap between them and their enemies.
“Eh?”
Seeing the Lion King change direction and run towards the lake, Gorefiend was slightly surprised. He immediately guessed what Xiao Chen was thinking, so he shouted to the two who were running behind him, “Gongsun Gou and Gongsun Zhu!
Follow this elder and chase after Xiao Chen and the Lion King. We must stop them before they reach the lake! ”
“Yes!
Lord Gorefiend! ”
Gongsun Gou and Gongsun Zhu were the two experts of the Gongsun Family. Hearing Gorefiend’s order, they no longer held back their strength and sped up to chase after Xiao Chen and the Lion King.
“Hehe!”
Gorefiend suddenly let out a long and sinister laugh, then mocked, “Xiao Chen, do you admit defeat?
You can’t escape. You are Xiao Zhan’s son, so you are destined to die. This is your fate, and the fate of the Xiao Family. Those who oppose our great Black Magic Pavilion never have a good ending, let alone you! ”
Hearing the mocking laughter coming from several hundred zhang behind him, Xiao Chen did not respond. There was no point in arguing, so he waited in silence. He only sighed inwardly at his own lack of strength. If he had reached the Heavenly Dragon Realm, why would he run away?
He would have just killed Gorefiend.
Strength!
Strength!
Xiao Chen once again felt that his strength was far from enough. If he were to fight against the young masters of the aristocratic families, he was confident that he could sweep them away. However, the enemies he was facing now were not those young masters, but the super masters and peerless masters of the Wilderness God Continent, and even the ultimate masters.
The spirit is willing, but the strength is insufficient!
Xiao Chen’s cultivation time was too short, only a dozen years. Compared to those masters in their fifties, sixties, eighties, or even hundreds of years old, he was simply incomparable. He had entered the secular world too early. If he had left the Great Wilderness twenty years later, with his talent, he might not have been able to reach the Earth Dragon Realm, but reaching the Dragon Elephant Realm would not be a problem.
However, cultivating in seclusion had its advantages. Entering the world early had its advantages. Cultivating in seclusion could allow one to cultivate in peace and quickly increase one’s strength. However, it would lack opportunities and tempering. Although entering the world to cultivate was very dangerous, one could encounter many opportunities and experience many life and death battles. This way, one could increase one’s strength faster than cultivating in seclusion.
The greater the effort, the greater the reward. If Xiao Chen had lived peacefully in the Great Wilderness and only fought wild beasts, he might not have been able to reach the third level of the Blood Bear Realm so quickly, not to mention obtaining the Immemorial Ominous Sword, the Fengsha Sword. With the Fengsha Sword, Xiao Chen would have the comprehensive strength to defeat Heavenly Dragon Realm experts, which was something he could not obtain by staying in the Great Wilderness.
“Swish!”
The Lion King’s speed was still not as fast as the flying speed of a Heavenly Dragon Realm expert. When it was a kilometer away from the lake, the Gorefiend Dragon caught up with the Lion King and blocked the Lion King’s path, preparing to launch a fatal attack on the Lion King.
“Chi!”
The Lion King suddenly stopped and confronted the Gorefiend Dragon. Since he could not escape, he could only fight to the death. If he tried to escape, he would still be caught by the Gorefiend Dragon. There was no point in running away.
“Swish!” “Swish!”
After a short while, Gongsun Gou and Gongsun Zhu also approached Xiao Chen and the Lion King from behind. They stopped about a kilometer away from the Lion King and sandwiched Xiao Chen and the others with the Gorefiend Dragon.
“Hehe!”
The Gorefiend Dragon seemed to like to laugh sinisterly. It was unknown if he was sick in the head or if he was deliberately creating a terrifying atmosphere to scare his opponents.
After laughing sinisterly for a while, the Gorefiend Dragon said to Xiao Chen, “Xiao Chen, why don’t you just surrender?
You will not suffer any physical pain!
As long as you do not resist, this Elder promises not to kill you for now. How about it? “
