112: Meet Xu Xiayang again

Swish, swish!

The snow on the trees kept falling, and Yao Beasts, as if possessed, fled from the distant forest.

There were many types of these Yao Beasts, including Snow Wolves, Snow Bears, Snow Foxes, and many strange-looking monsters.

And in front of those monsters, a combat team was frantically fleeing.

The faces of the team members were filled with terror, clearly frightened by the monsters behind them, which they had lured over themselves.

"Damn it, don't come over here!"

Seeing the team quickly approach Shen Yuanhang, he angrily shouted.

The team members there were already scared out of their wits and paid no attention to his words.

Each of them only knew how to run headlong, completely ignoring what he was saying.

Just as those people fled, Li Changkong noticed a Shield Warrior deliberately slowing his pace, holding a shield in his hand.

Whenever a monster charged forward, this Shield Warrior would raise his shield and forcefully swat the opponent away.

It was clear that the Shield Warrior at the very back was protecting everyone.

However, his other teammates completely disregarded the Shield Warrior's fate and continued to flee for their lives.

As Li Changkong looked at the Shield Warrior, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.

After a brief two-second thought, he loudly called out, "Xu Xiayang?"

Hearing someone call his name, the Shield Warrior suddenly turned his head and spotted Li Changkong in the distance.

He exclaimed in surprise, "Li Changkong!"

The two could be considered old acquaintances meeting in a foreign land; they were both from the same place, so naturally, they were surprised to see each other.

However, Xu Xiayang didn't have much time for pleasant surprises; the moment he turned his head, several Snow Wolves had already charged towards him.

Those Snow Wolves were all around Rank 25, which wasn't much for Li Changkong.

But in the eyes of these new students, they were terrifying existences.

Xu Xiayang raised the shield in his hand, sending several Snow Wolves flying back.

His attack power was clearly insufficient; the few Snow Wolves that were knocked back easily regained their balance after rolling a few times.

But because they had been knocked back, the eyes of the few Snow Wolves were filled with anger.

After a loud howl, they pounced again.

At the same time, several more monsters arrived from behind.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Xiayang was completely surrounded.

At this point, even if he wanted to escape, it wouldn't be so simple.

Just as Xu Xiayang was at a loss, Li Changkong had already made his move.

Regardless, he and Xu Xiayang were acquainted, and he rather admired Xu Xiayang.

The way he alone protected the entire team's retreat just now showed that he was a very loyal person.

Just as several Snow Wolves were about to pounce on him, several fireballs struck the Snow Wolves.

Accompanied by a few low growls, the bodies of the Snow Wolves were instantly engulfed by flames.

A burnt smell quickly spread from the Snow Wolves, and soon they turned into a pile of charcoal.

However, this only saved Xu Xiayang for a moment; the monsters behind them continued to charge forward one after another.

They had already regarded Xu Xiayang as their soon-to-be prey.

As a summoning array lit up, Black Flame's massive body slowly appeared.

On the other side, Little Purple also emerged from the pet space.

A terrifying aura instantly permeated from Little Purple's body.

After this aura spread, the monsters, which had been ferocious, suddenly stopped in their tracks.

Little Purple's strength was evident; among these monsters, Bloodline was highly valued.

In addition to his powerful strength, his Bloodline was much nobler than that of these ordinary Yao Beasts.

Taking advantage of the opponent not continuing forward, Xu Xiayang quickly stood up from the ground and escaped the pursuit of those monsters.

"What exactly happened just now? Why are so many Yao Beasts chasing you?"

When Xu Xiayang ran to him, Li Changkong asked with great curiosity.

"There's a boss in the distant forest; we accidentally discovered it when we entered the forest just now."

"After discovering that boss, it frantically chased us."

"Otherwise, let's leave quickly now; that boss's strength is not weak."

Xu Xiayang looked at Li Changkong before speaking.

"What boss?"

Upon hearing this, Li Changkong became even more interested.

He hadn't encountered any bosses along the way just now, and he felt that the rate of obtaining points was a bit too slow.

If he wanted to accumulate points quickly, then killing a boss was definitely the fastest way.

"Your boss is very powerful, possibly even reaching around Rank 40."

Xu Xiayang seemed to sense Li Changkong's current Battle Intent, so he quickly tried to persuade him.

Although he and Li Changkong weren't too familiar, they were at least friends before.

He knew that Li Changkong's speed in increasing his Rank and strength was very fast, but he believed that Li Changkong would definitely not be able to deal with such a boss in a short amount of time.

On the other side, the two pets had already directly charged into the opposing beast horde.

Within the beast horde, not only did they not suffer any damage, but they even seemed to be in their element.

These monsters of Rank 20 or 30 could not cause them any harm at all.

No matter how much more was said, to them, these monsters were like tiny ants.

Originally, Xu Xiayang was worried that Li Changkong's two pets would suffer some harm.

Who would have thought that the strength of his two pets was so terrifying, even stronger than his own?

Even more shocked should have been the other team members; Li Changkong's previous move had already greatly surprised them.

Who knew that what he just showed wasn't even his full strength, and he still had these two pets that hadn't been released?

Shen Yuanhang, who had been constantly clamoring, finally obediently shut his mouth, afraid that saying more would make Li Changkong angry.

"I'll go in and check out that boss first; maybe I have a way to deal with it."

Facing Xu Xiayang's advice, Li Changkong just smiled faintly.

Xu Xiayang wanted to say more, but seeing Li Changkong's determined expression, he ultimately did not voice what he wanted to say.

Just now, those monsters were extremely arrogant, but now they had all retreated.

Facing the terrifyingly strong Li Changkong, they truly did not have the courage to continue resisting.
