304: A giant spicy strip

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, scattering like golden rain into the forest, forming shimmering patches of light.

Li Mu, leading Linglong and the little fox, quietly appeared at a corner of the forest.

The corners of his mouth curved slightly upwards, holding a faint smile, his gaze gently fixed on Linglong and the little fox, who were excitedly yelping.

Li Mu gently stroked Linglong's head and then smoothed the little fox's fluffy chin, appearing exceptionally relaxed.

"Alright, go and play to your heart's content!"

Li Mu softly instructed, "But remember, don't play too wildly, understand?"

Linglong and the little fox nodded vigorously upon hearing this, then joyfully darted away.

Li Mu watched their retreating figures, his smile growing even brighter.

He mused to himself, "Judging by this, it must have been too long since I let Linglong and the little fox out to play. Once these two little rascals start playing, who knows what kind of trouble they'll stir up! They won't burn down the entire forest, will they...?"

And so, on this sunny day, Linglong and the little fox frolicked and played in the forest.

Linglong happily searched for little companions in the forest, playing and romping with them;

While the little fox's nimble eyes darted around, as if plotting some mischievous idea.

However, Linglong and the little fox were completely unaware that they had entered the territory of a snake Yao Beast who had Cultivated to the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation.

When this snake Yao Beast sensed Linglong's presence, it was instantly enraged!

It opened its gaping maw, revealing incredibly sharp fangs, and lunged at Linglong with lightning speed!

Faced with the sudden crisis, Linglong panicked, but it quickly regained its composure, unleashing its ultimate Move from its arsenal, and engaged in a thrilling battle with the snake Yao Beast!

The snake Yao Beast's body twisted flexibly like a spiritual snake, each attack as fast as lightning, making it almost impossible for Linglong to keep up!

Meanwhile, the little fox watched the battle nervously from the side, seizing the opportunity to suddenly unleash its Enchantment skill on the snake Yao Beast.

Unfortunately, the little fox's Cultivation was still shallow, and this Enchantment skill had little effect on the powerful snake Yao Beast. Not only did it fail to work, but it thoroughly enraged the snake Yao Beast!

In its fury, the snake Yao Beast turned its attention, charging fiercely at the little fox!

Seeing the little fox in danger, Linglong was anxious and unhesitatingly unleashed a powerful bolt of lightning towards the snake Yao Beast, successfully disrupting its attack.

The lightning in Linglong's hand crisscrossed like silver snakes dancing wildly, radiating brilliant light.

Each bolt of lightning contained boundless power, as if it could tear through the Void Realm and destroy everything.

However, the snake Yao Beast's Physical Body was exceptionally formidable, its scales shimmering with an eerie light, like an indestructible shield.

Its movements were even swifter than a gust of wind, as fast as lightning, making it hard to grasp.

As the battle raged, the once peaceful and serene forest suffered immense destruction.

Towering trees were crashed down, their branches and leaves scattered everywhere.

Deep cracks appeared on the ground, a shocking sight.

Linglong and the snake Yao Beast moved freely through this destruction, their every attack causing violent tremors in the surrounding environment.

Linglong strenuously resisted the snake Yao Beast's attacks, its movements agile, its Moves flexible and varied.

However, the snake Yao Beast's strength was not to be underestimated; its power grew stronger and stronger.

At this critical moment, Linglong concentrated all its energy and unleashed its unique ultimate Move.

Its figure flickered, appearing like a phantom behind the snake Yao Beast, followed by a earth-shattering heavy blow.

This strike was as fierce as a sudden storm, carrying unparalleled power, and finally hit the snake Yao Beast's vital point.

Severely wounded by this blow, the snake Yao Beast involuntarily retreated a few steps. In pain, its movements became sluggish.

But the fierce glint in its eyes remained undiminished, staring intently at Linglong, emitting a low hiss from its mouth.

Linglong pressed its advantage, launching several powerful attacks in succession, finally cornering the snake Yao Beast.

Seeing the snake Yao Beast so weakened, the little fox's eyes lit up, and it immediately seized this rare opportunity to use its Enchantment!

Its eyes became hazy and captivating, exuding an irresistible charm.

The snake Yao Beast was controlled by the little fox's Enchantment, instantly losing its ability to resist, and could only watch as Linglong approached it step by step.

At this moment, Linglong showed no mercy. It gathered all its strength, unleashing an ultimate lightning bolt that seemed to distort the surrounding space, striking directly at the snake Yao Beast.

With a piercing shriek echoing throughout the forest, the lightning struck the snake Yao Beast, instantly erupting into a sky full of electric arcs, and the surrounding trees were all ignited by these arcs at that moment.

The entire area instantly turned into a sea of flames, with scorched earth everywhere...

The snake Yao Beast's body was also directly torn apart by the lightning, its wounds charred.

Moments later, the snake Yao Beast finally succumbed, collapsing to the ground, turning into a giant grilled spicy strip.

Linglong and the little fox sat on the ground, exhausted, panting heavily.

Their bodies were utterly fatigued, but their hearts were filled with the joy of victory.

Linglong happily spun a few circles, then came to the snake Yao Beast, and strenuously bit off a piece of tender and juicy snake Yao Beast meat.

While chewing on the delicious food, it did not forget to get some for the little fox.

The little fox looked at the snake Yao Beast meat before it, a complex emotion welling up in its heart.

It began to reflect on its previous attitude towards Linglong, wondering if it had been too harsh?

"Linglong and the snake Yao Beast were evenly matched. If it weren't for me, perhaps Linglong wouldn't have had to fight so hard in this battle."

Thinking of this, the little fox's eyes gradually became moist.

"And after killing the snake Yao Beast, Linglong actually remembered me and specially left me a portion of snake Yao Beast meat.

Boohoohoo, it's really touching! Linglong, I will never go against you again..."

How could Linglong guess the little fox's thoughts at this moment?

At this very moment, it was solely focused on having a hearty meal.

Just now, it had successfully defeated a Yao Beast of comparable strength, and the sense of pride in its heart was simply inexpressible.

When I see Master later, I must show off to him properly and ask him for more Spirit Stones.

As it was thinking, Linglong couldn't help but glance at the little fox again, sighing softly.

If it weren't for this little rascal causing trouble, it could have easily crushed that snake Yao Beast into a meat patty long ago.

But fortunately, it still successfully killed the snake Yao Beast in the end, and even got to taste delicious grilled meat.

Moreover, I've already left a portion of snake Yao Beast meat for the little fox. I'll eat all the other snake Yao Beast grilled meat; the little fox shouldn't be unhappy, right!

And so, after the little fox finished the enticingly fragrant and mouth-watering snake Yao Beast grilled meat before it, it happily waited for Linglong to continue feeding it more delicious food.

However, as time passed, Linglong remained unresponsive.

The little fox couldn't help but feel a hint of doubt, so it looked up, wanting to see what Linglong was doing.

And what it saw truly astonished it!

The sight before the little fox left it dumbfounded—the entire snake Yao Beast, which was originally intact, had now been completely devoured by Linglong, leaving only a solitary snake Yao Beast skeleton!

The little fox's eyes widened as it watched the already full Linglong picking its teeth, muttering to itself, "This... how did you manage to finish the entire snake Yao Beast while I was just eating a piece of tail meat?"

The little fox silently lowered its head. It suddenly realized that all its previous reflections seemed to have been superfluous.

Linglong, that simpleton, was still as gluttonous as ever, not changing at all.

Thinking of this, the little fox secretly sighed, "In the end, it was all for nothing..."
