230: Chapter 230 No Escape

Upon detecting an abnormality in the Snow Spirit Beast, Lü Wenjing's expression changed drastically.

"Young Master Yun, act quickly! Once it breaks through to the Sixth Rank, it will be even harder for us to capture it!"

While speaking, Lü Wenjing released a vine that coiled towards the Snow Spirit Beast.

Seeing this, Yun Chenfei flew towards the Snow Spirit Beast, unhurriedly reaching out to grab it.

He was actually curious to see what was so peculiar about this Snow Spirit Beast.

More importantly, Yun Chenfei really wanted to wait until it advanced into a Sixth Rank Spirit Beast before capturing it; this way, his bargaining chip before the Fengming City Lord would be even heavier.

The vines Lü Wenjing unleashed were quite fast. In the blink of an eye, they reached the Snow Spirit Beast and immediately transformed into a wooden cage, trapping it.

Seeing this, Lü Wenjing was overjoyed. Even she hadn't expected to trap the Snow Spirit Beast within the vines so easily.

However, Yun Chenfei shifted his gaze elsewhere with interest. He then flicked his finger, and an imperceptible mark landed on the Snow Spirit Beast, which was hiding not far away.

"This Snow Spirit Beast's speed is indeed fast. If I didn't use Kunpeng Divine Speed, even I would find it hard to capture it alive."

A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and Yun Chenfei thought to himself.

"An afterimage!"

By the time Lü Wenjing realized she had only trapped an afterimage, the real Snow Spirit Beast had already turned into a streak of white light and flown into the distance.

"Sigh!"

"The speed of this Snow Spirit Beast is simply too fast. I didn't even see how it escaped."

After sighing, Lü Wenjing said regretfully.

"Don't worry, it cannot escape!"

Glancing in the direction the Snow Spirit Beast had fled, Yun Chenfei said with a smile.

"Could it be that Young Master Yun left a Soul mark on the Snow Spirit Beast?"

Upon hearing this, Lü Wenjing asked with pleasant surprise.

Yun Chenfei smiled but said nothing, merely nodding slightly before slowly walking in the direction the Snow Spirit Beast had fled.

"Although this Young Master Yun always appears unhurried and lazy, he is actually very meticulous in his actions."

Watching Yun Chenfei's slowly retreating figure, Lü Wenjing thought to herself.

With the Soul mark as a guide, Yun Chenfei was not worried at all that this Snow Spirit Beast would escape.

Soon, Yun Chenfei sensed that the Snow Spirit Beast had stopped moving, and its aura was gradually strengthening—clearly a sign of an impending Breakthrough.

"No wonder this beast came out early in the morning to eat Ice-Beard Grass; it was about to have a Breakthrough!"

After sensing the changes in the Snow Spirit Beast, Yun Chenfei thought to himself.

Half an hour later, the two arrived near the Snow Spirit Beast's hiding spot.

At this moment, Yun Chenfei found a bluestone without snow, sat down cross-legged, and assumed a posture of closing his eyes to rest.

"Young Master Yun, why have you stopped? Have you lost the trail of the Snow Spirit Beast?"

Seeing this, Lü Wenjing asked with a frown.

"Miss Lü, do you think the Fengming City Lord wants a Fifth Rank Snow Spirit Beast or a Sixth Rank one?"

Yun Chenfei replied with an unrelated question.

"Of course, a Sixth Rank one. The Ice-Clear Pill refined from the essence blood of a Sixth Rank Snow Spirit Beast would certainly have better medicinal efficacy."

"Could Young Master Yun mean that we should wait for the Snow Spirit Beast to finish its Breakthrough before capturing it..."

Hearing this, Lü Wenjing finally understood why Yun Chenfei had stopped here.

Although she knew a Sixth Rank Snow Spirit Beast would be harder to deal with than a Fifth Rank one, seeing Yun Chenfei's calm and composed posture, Lü Wenjing did not feel it appropriate to say anything more.

In the blink of an eye, three more days passed.

Suddenly, a massive fluctuation of Spiritual Qi came from not far away.

"This Snow Spirit Beast has finally completed its Breakthrough."

At this moment, Yun Chenfei also finished his Cultivation and looked towards the place where the Spiritual Qi fluctuations were coming from.

"Young Master Yun, we..."

Before Lü Wenjing could finish her sentence, a streak of white light fled into the distance.

This streak of white light was the Snow Spirit Beast; it had already sensed Yun Chenfei and Lü Wenjing when they first arrived.

If it hadn't been at the critical moment of its Breakthrough, this Snow Spirit Beast would have fled long ago.

"It really is as timid as a mouse..."

Seeing that the Snow Spirit Beast, even after reaching the Sixth Rank, was still so vigilant and timid, Yun Chenfei muttered, and then his figure instantly vanished from where he stood.

"Young Master Yun's movement technique is so fast."

Looking at the fading afterimage before her, Lü Wenjing said with a dazed expression.

This two-legged beast has such fast speed!

Sensing the Human Cultivators behind it giving chase, the Snow Spirit Beast's speed inadvertently increased by a few notches.

Suddenly, a pair of illusory wings appeared on the back of the snow-white Little Beast, and then, like a bolt of lightning, it fled rapidly into the distance.

Spiritual Qi Wings.

This was the innate Divine Ability unlocked when the Snow Spirit Beast clan promoted to the Sixth Rank.

"Hmph!"

"Today, I will let you understand what it means to be—"

"Unable to escape even with wings!"

Seeing the Snow Spirit Beast's speed suddenly skyrocket after unleashing its Spiritual Qi Wings, Yun Chenfei immediately utilized Kunpeng Divine Speed.

Sensing the two-legged beast behind it getting closer and closer, the Snow Spirit Beast fled even more desperately; it just wanted to go home and find its mother quickly.

However, to Yun Chenfei, who was utilizing Kunpeng Divine Speed, the Snow Spirit Beast's speed was clearly still not enough.

In less than three breaths' time, a pair of huge black wings appeared before its eyes.

Seeing that its speed was clearly inferior to the two-legged beast before it, the Snow Spirit Beast stopped fleeing and instead waved its sharp little claws, striking towards Yun Chenfei.

Though the claws were small, they were full of power.

Wherever the Snow Spirit Beast's little claws passed, ripples appeared in space.

"No wonder Lü Wenjing was severely injured by this beast; its strength is actually this formidable."

The power of this claw strike from a newly promoted Sixth Rank Snow Spirit Beast was not inferior to that of a Middle Stage Raging Flame Demon Bear.

Unfortunately, the opponent standing before it now was not Lü Wenjing, but Yun Chenfei!

After only a few exchanges, the Snow Spirit Beast was picked up by a large hand gripping its neck.

It couldn't win in a fight, and its speed wasn't as fast as the other party's; it finally understood what it meant to be unable to escape even with wings.

...

A moment later.

Yun Chenfei appeared before Lü Wenjing, holding the Snow Spirit Beast in one hand.

"Young Master Yun's strength truly makes this young woman feel ashamed..."

"I didn't help at all this time; Young Master Yun should go to Fengming City alone to claim the reward."

Looking at the unfathomably powerful Yun Chenfei before her, Lü Wenjing said with a shocked expression.

She never imagined that Yun Chenfei could single-handedly capture a Sixth Rank Snow Spirit Beast.

If she had known at the beginning that Yun Chenfei's strength was so terrifying, Lü Wenjing would have been too embarrassed to propose capturing the Snow Spirit Beast with him.

"If it weren't for Miss Lü, how would I have known about the Fengming City Lord's bounty on the Snow Spirit Beast?"

"Furthermore, we agreed beforehand: you take the bounty, and I seek an audience with the City Lord."

Shaking the Snow Spirit Beast he was holding, Yun Chenfei said with a smile.
