46: That's a really ruthless move
“Phew!” Wei Xun let out a long breath after landing and pinched his overwhelmed nose.
“Be careful, he’s not dead yet!” Si Niang, who had poked her head out from Wei Xun’s clothes, reminded him at that moment.
Only then did Wei Xun realize that despite being pierced through the head by lightning, the Leper dog demon, after falling to the ground for a moment, actually stood up again.
And the wound on his forehead caused by the lightning penetration was actually being automatically repaired by countless bloodworms.
“What a monster!” Wei Xun swallowed his saliva, once again suppressing the nausea.
“Hahahahaha!” While repairing the wound on his forehead, the Leper dog demon laughed maniacally: “Useless, useless!”
“Go to hell!” But Wei Xun didn’t humor him, directly spitting Fire at him and throwing it over.
As expected, the Leper dog demon, who had been laughing wildly, immediately stopped hisLaughing and dodged quickly.
“Looks like you’re afraid of Fire!” Wei Xun smiled at the corner of his mouth and spat out another ball of Fire, igniting the tip of his spear.
“....” The Mange Dog Yao Beast frowned instantly upon seeing this.
At this time, on the battlefield behind Wei Xun, the few Hyena Demons also suffered repeated setbacks; although they seized the opportunity to bite to death another disabled swallow semi-transformed minor Yao Beast, under Xiong Er's leadership, three Hyena Demons had already been killed, and the remaining few were also wounded.
“Consider yourself lucky!” Seeing such a disadvantage, the Leper dog demon, not wanting to fight anymore, directly blew a whistle.
The few Hyenas still fighting desperately immediately turned and ran upon hearing it, fleeing into the Forest without the slightest hesitation.
“Trying to run?” Wei Xun, however, was not prepared to let him go like that, immediately activating Shadowless Step and brandishing the Fire spear in his hand, he slashed towards the Leper dog demon.
But the Leper dog demon opened his mouth and spat out a foul-smelling snowy mist; facing such an attack, Wei Xun could only stop his attack and roll to dodge.
But when Wei Xun landed again, he found that the Leper dog demon had already run far away.
“Big Brother, should we chase?” At this moment, Xiong Er caught up, holding an axe, and asked Wei Xun excitedly.
At this moment, Wei Xun was closing his eyes, using Wind-Following Ear and Ten Mile Tracking to pinpoint the direction the Leper dog demon had fled; this guy’s escape speed was very fast, and he seemed very familiar with the nearby Forest.
After stopping the fight, the stench on the Leper dog demon’s body also disappeared; although the lingering smell could still be detected by Wei Xun, it was slowly fading away.
“How many casualties?” Wei Xun didn't rush to chase but turned to Xiong Er and asked.
“The Red Eyes and Flat-Mouth on guard are both dead!” Xiong Er slowly said: “And Pi Yanzi was also bitten through the neck in the battle and has stopped breathing; the others suffered some minor injuries, but nothing serious.”
Upon hearing Xiong Er's report, Wei Xun immediately understood.
No wonder the Toad Skin Dog could lead those Hyenas to sneak into the camp so silently; it must have been that the two Yao Beasts on guard didn't detect them in advance.
Fortunately, Wei Xun suddenly woke up at that time and heard strange sounds with Wind-Following Ear, which saved Xiong Er from being bitten in the neck.
“Big Brother, are we chasing or not!” Xiong Er asked Wei Xun again at this moment; the recent battle had made Xiong Er very excited, apparently not having killed enough.
“Not chasing yet!” Wei Xun looked in the direction the Leper dog demon had fled and slowly said: “Let the brothers rest first; we’ll talk about it tomorrow!”
At this time, there was only a little over an hour until dawn, and the sudden night attack had left the other minor Yao Beasts still shaken.
Seeing that Wei Xun didn’t plan to continue the pursuit, Xiong Er then sighed: “Alright! I’ll listen to Big Brother!”
After a short rest, Wei Xun also used Golden Light Technique to heal the external injuries Horn, Da Huang, and the other minor Yao Beasts had sustained during the recent battle.
Until dawn, these minor Yao Beasts dared not go back to sleep.
Looking at the sun rising in the east, Wei Xun turned to Da Huang and said: “You few take these several Hyena corpses back for accountability, and by the way, rendezvous with the four brothers who returned yesterday; as for the others, we’ll talk when I get back.”
Da Huang nodded after hearing this, then asked: “Then Instructor, what are you going to do?”
“You don’t need to worry about that!” Wei Xun finished speaking and only took Xiong Er, a single Yao Beast, and pursued in the direction the Leper dog demon had fled during the night.
Da Huang looked at the direction Wei Xun disappeared, frowning slightly.
“Don’t look!” Old Sheep Horn rubbed his old arms and legs and then said: “Hurry back; this is truly taking my old life!”
Hearing Horn’s urging, Da Huang finally turned around and, as per Wei Xun’s instructions, carried the several Hyena corpses on wooden poles towards Black Tiger Mountain.
After the Leper dog demon escaped during the night, he hid all the way in a secluded mountain hollow.
Looking at the four scarred Hyenas he had brought back, the Leper dog demon gnashed his teeth in anger: “How did that hateful fellow discover me!”
Even now, the Leper dog demon couldn’t understand; his hiding technique had never exposed him, but during the night raid, he was suddenly discovered by that guy who could both spit Fire and electricity.
And he was even injured.
The Leper dog demon took two deep breaths to calm his breathing and touched the scar on his forehead.
“What a ruthless strike!” The Leper dog demon said this as he stood up, then walked to a hidden cave entrance in the mountain hollow, and directly pushed away the stone blocking the entrance.
Immediately after, the Leper dog demon extended his claw and pulled out a Yao Beast from the cave; it was actually a Lobster Demon covered in a hard shell.
However, the Lobster Demon’s two arms had disappeared, leaving only half of its body and a lingering breath.
“The water Yao Beasts in Bi Shui Lake have become smart! I need to think of other ways to catch some Yao Beasts back to replenish myself.” The Leper dog demon lifted the Lobster Demon by the neck, then directly bit into it and tore off a mouthful of shelled shrimp meat, then swallowed it directly without even chewing.
And the Lobster Demon, whose neck was half torn off, completely lost its breath.
“Well, well!” But at this moment, a voice familiar to the Leper dog demon suddenly sounded from overhead.
The Leper dog demon suddenly looked up and found Wei Xun, holding a spear, squatting on a rock on the hillside.
“How did you!” The Leper dog demon immediately tensed up upon seeing Wei Xun.
“So, you’re the one who killed the Yao Beasts in Bi Shui Lake!” Wei Xun sneered, then said: “If I capture you and hand you over to that Red Carp, maybe I can even make a friend!”
“Capture me?” The Leper dog demon, upon hearing this, gave a cold laugh: “A Yao Beast capable of capturing me hasn’t been born yet!”
But the next second, a black shadow suddenly burst out from beside him; Xiong Er, holding a giant axe, slashed towards the Leper dog demon’s head.
However, the Leper dog demon’s reaction speed was very fast; he immediately pushed off the ground with force, and his entire body sprang up, completely avoiding Xiong Er’s sneak attack.
Wei Xun, seeing this, said no more; holding his spear, he activated Shadowless Step, directly transforming into an afterimage, and with a single fiery, electric thrust, he stabbed forward.
Facing Wei Xun’s attack, the Leper dog demon dared not be careless and directly spat out bloody mist again, intending to block Wei Xun.
But the moment the Hyena landed, a phantom appeared in front of and behind him, and a sword directly pierced through the Leper dog demon’s chest.
