50: I can tell you're not human at first glance!

Fang Bai looked up at the sky with a horrified expression.

He saw a three-headed Giant Bird covered in flames, hovering in the air with powerful wingbeats; the pressure radiating from its body blanketed the entire giant crater!

Under this pressure, Fang Bai felt an overwhelming sense of his own insignificance.

It was definitely a great demon beast of the Fifth-Rank or higher!

The three-headed Giant Bird looked down, its sharp gaze sweeping over Fang Bai, causing his body to stiffen as he felt a strong sense of impending death!

However, the Giant Bird seemed to have no interest in Fang Bai; in its eyes, a Second-Rank human was no different from an ant on the side of the road.

Ignoring him completely, it fixed its gaze on the few Fourth-Rank demon beasts, and the next second, its massive body dove straight down!

The demon beasts lay on the ground, trembling; facing the disparity in bloodline and rank, they were completely unable to move!

The giant crocodile that had been chasing Fang Bai earlier became the Giant Bird's first target.

Because it had been closest to the nuclear bomb, half of the crocodile's mouth had been blown off, leaving it in a miserable state.

The three-headed Giant Bird drove its sharp talons straight into the giant crocodile's body!

Those sturdy scales were as fragile as paper before it!

The three-headed Giant Bird let out a unified shriek, and within a few breaths, it had completely devoured the giant crocodile!

It was as if such Fourth-Rank demon beasts were nothing more than rations to it.

This scene made Fang Bai's skin crawl.

"Damn! Killing a Fourth-Rank is like killing a chicken!"

He had to get out of here quickly!

Thinking this, Fang Bai tried to sneak away while the three-headed Giant Bird wasn't paying attention.

But suddenly, the Giant Bird's left head turned toward Fang Bai, its eyes revealing a hint of mockery, and then it suddenly opened its beak, spewing a terrifying burst of flame energy toward him!

Fang Bai's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly dodged!

Boom!

With an explosion, Fang Bai was caught in the blast and sent flying!

The three-headed Giant Bird didn't seem to intend to kill him, immediately turning its attention to another Fourth-Rank demon beast.

The latter was startled and immediately turned to run!

However, before it, everything seemed to be a foregone conclusion!

Swish!

The Giant Bird's sharp talons grabbed the Fourth-Rank demon beast, and then it exerted force, instantly tearing it apart in a bloody display!

"Hiss! Damn! I almost died!"

Fang Bai winced in pain, feeling as if his whole body had collided with a train engine.

"Fang Bai! Run!"

The voices of Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others rang out.

Fang Bai immediately ignored the pain and continued to flee.

Soon, he reached the side of Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others.

"Let's go quickly! While that monster isn't paying attention to us!"

Li Xue, Martial Academy said with a grave expression.

Everyone ran wildly back the way they came.

But they had only run for a short while when they were shrouded in a dark shadow!

Their hearts sank, and when they looked up, they discovered that the three-headed monster bird had already chased after them!

"It's over! It's a barbecue!"

Zhang Zifeng said with a face full of terror.

"No way! I haven't even been in a relationship yet! Can't you give me a chance?"

No matter how they ran, the monster bird remained overhead; it didn't attack, just like a hawk toying with chicks.

"Should we fight it?"

Huo Qi asked.

Fang Bai said tremblingly, "Big brother! How are we supposed to fight it? By becoming a platter for it?"

It could kill them in one breath; if they really fought, what difference would it make from an egg hitting a rock?

The group soon ran out of the forest, but the monster bird was still chasing them.

"What does it want?"

Li Xue, Martial Academy asked, puzzled.

Fang Bai said with a strange expression, "Is it possible that it wants to give us hope, and then brutally slaughter us?"

Everyone's expression stiffened.

Damn! That's so sadistic!

But just then, an aged figure appeared in their line of sight.

This person was holding a cane, standing not far away with his back to them, one hand behind his back, exuding the demeanor of a peerless expert.

For a moment, Fang Bai and the others were overjoyed, as if they had seen hope for survival!

"Senior! Help us!"

Fang Bai shouted at the top of his lungs.

The old man slowly turned around; it was none other than Thousand Cuts Fu.

At this moment, the monster bird also noticed the old man, but it was currently attacking Fang Bai and the others.

One head fired a blast of flame energy, intending to burn them to ashes!

Just at this moment...

"Vile beast! Stop your insolence!"

A thunderous voice rang out, and a mysterious force instantly imprisoned the fireball!

At the same time, the old man's figure appeared above the flames, walking as if on flat ground.

Fang Bai and the others finally stopped, looking at the old man with excitement.

"Senior! Why are you here?"

Thousand Cuts Fu said nonchalantly, "I was just passing by. How do you little guys manage to cause so much trouble? Even a Sixth-Rank Demon Beasts is interested in you?"

The group felt a bit awkward.

Thousand Cuts Fu waved his hand calmly, "Forget it. Since you ran into me, consider yourselves lucky."

"With me here, I will ensure your safety within this space!"

After saying this, he didn't forget to keep one hand behind his back, chin tilted at forty-five degrees, looking invincible.

Fang Bai and the others had strange expressions.

Why does this senior seem like he's showing off?

"Screech!"

In the air, the three-headed monster bird shrieked impatiently, staring fiercely at the old man.

Thousand Cuts Fu frowned, then looked at the monster bird, "Vile beast! I can tell at a glance that you are not human!"

Monster Bird: "???"

So what?

Thousand Cuts Fu raised his cane and tapped lightly, and the flames imprisoned below him immediately exploded like fireworks!

At the same time, the three-headed Giant Bird dove straight down, arriving above Thousand Cuts Fu in the blink of an eye!

"Too slow!"

Thousand Cuts Fu casually waved his cane, and a blade of energy slashed directly onto the monster bird's claws!

Pfft!

The next second, the monster bird's claws were severed from its body and fell below, while a hideous bloody gash appeared on its body!

The monster bird cried out in pain, flapping its wings frantically!

No matter how slow it was, it realized now that the opponent was not someone it could resist!

Without hesitation, the monster bird turned around, wanting to escape.

But just then, a mocking voice rang out.

"Since you're already here, you might as well stay!"

Boom!

A terrifying force pressed down on the monster bird, and the latter screamed as its body slammed hard into the ground!

"Is the gap between Sixth-Rank Demon Beasts and the Seventh-Rank really this big?"

Huo Qi looked shocked.

Li Xue, Martial Academy sighed, "In the cultivation system, the Nine Ranks are divided into three stages. The Third and Fourth Ranks are a watershed, while the Sixth and Seventh Ranks are a chasm. A Seventh-Rank fighting a Sixth-Rank is like a father beating his son."

Everyone: "..."

That analogy was very abstract!

Suddenly, Zhang Zifeng glanced out of the corner of his eye and asked, puzzled, "Fang Bai, what are you doing?"

Fang Bai had already snuck over to where the monster bird's claws had fallen, greedily picked them up, and stowed them into his space ring.

He grinned, "I haven't tasted Sixth-Rank Demon Beasts meat yet; I'll go back and make a meal of pickled pepper bird claws to see how it tastes."

Everyone's faces were covered in black lines.

Fang Bai was overjoyed; after all, that was a Sixth-Rank Demon Beasts! Even just one claw was incredibly expensive! Moreover, if a martial artist ate it, it could enhance their physique.

Zhang Zifeng pointed at him indignantly, "Buddy, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person! Don't you know you shouldn't take things that aren't yours? I am ashamed to be associated with you!"

Fang Bai said calmly, "I'll share some with you."

"?"

Zhang Zifeng's expression changed instantly, his smile blooming like a chrysanthemum, "Hehe! You're such a good judge of character!"

Everyone: "..."
