Chapter 287: The First Creatures With Flesh and Blood

Edited by Aelryinth

“Shit, what’s that?”

It was only now that the group of beastmasters saw something that shouldn’t be here entering the area of their subdued beasts’ combined elemental assault.

Meanwhile, Zhang Che, who was their intended target, flew away from this area on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, fleeing a thousand meters away in the blink of an eye.

A soundless miserable roar suddenly rang out. Every one of them here let out low groans one after another.

Some of them even bled from their mouths and nose, their faces turning red and collapsing.

Suddenly, the situation turned chaotic.

“@#￥%&*&%￥#@”

The blond man screamed loudly, no longer caring about Zhang Che, who had escaped. He turned to command his group, getting them to direct their subdued beasts at the Bone-spiked Flying Tiger that had suddenly appeared. All kinds of attacks rained down on it.

After a short while, a dark silhouette rose to the skies, flying into the distance and escaping.

In the open space in the valley below, everything was a mess.

The group, which had about a dozen members originally, had lost a third of its members. The survivors had suffered heavy casualties with regards to their subdued beasts, too, with only about half of them left.

The blond man looked at his beat up team with a solemn expression, his eyes filled with rage. He clenched his fists tightly, veins popping out on the back of his hands. Each and every blood vessel seemed to be on the verge of bursting.

He suddenly turned around and looked in the direction Zhang Che had fled to, his eyes filled with hatred.

Even so, at this moment, Zhang Che was already dozens of kilometers away from the valley.

After making sure that the Bone-spiked Flying Tiger was no longer chasing after him, he had the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon slow down and stop. Afterwards, Zhang Che had the Purple Crystal Tortoise dispel its skill, drops of thick blood immediately dripping down from cuts all over him.

Zhang Che’s clothes were shredded to pieces. A gust of wind would blow them off his body.

Zhang Che moved slightly, and immediately felt stinging pain from the countless wounds all over himself, leaving him gritting his teeth and cursing, “Si… why can’t I wear other armor when the Purple Crystal Tortoise uses its Purple Crystal Armor skill? I wouldn’t be suffering like this otherwise!”

If he could wear another set of armor under the Purple Crystal Armor, he wouldn’t have suffered any injuries at all!

Alas, he didn’t have a choice. If he wanted to gain the Purple Crystal Armor’s unparalleled physical defense, he had to give up on the defense from other sources.

Zhang Che summoned the Unicorn and ordered it to bestow a heal upon him, then tore the shreds of clothing off. After that, he had the Purple Crystal Tortoise produce a bucket of water from its spatial pocket, and washed off the blood stains before putting on another set of clothing.

“Heh, I wonder how those foreigners are doing now? They aren’t weak; they should be able to claim victory against that powerful creature, right?”

Thinking of that, Zhang Che couldn’t help but chuckle from the bottom of his heart.

He totally didn’t expect to bump into that group of people while he was running for his life. It truly felt so good to be able to set them up while he was at it.

Last night, if it wasn’t for the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s speed, he would have been blown to bits. How could he still be acting so freely now?

Zhang Che was someone who held grudges!

“Setting people up feels too good! I hope we will meet again; I don’t mind setting them up again! Ha! I feel like my Fisherman Zhang nickname can be changed to Schemer Zhang!”

After laughing to himself, Zhang Che realized that it didn’t seem to be very late. He jumped onto the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s back once more and continued on his way.

He was only a few dozen kilometers away from the battlefield. It truly wasn’t very safe here. Heavens knew if that bunch of foreigners would chase him down and rip him apart, then turn him into meat paste to vent their anger.

To be on the safer side of things, Zhang Che felt that it was very necessary for him to travel far away from here, giving them no chance of catching up to him.

As such, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon went on his way, flying close to the ground for a few hundred kilometers before slowing down.

After that painful experience, Zhang Che didn’t dare to continue letting the Purple Jade Condor scout things out from the sky. There might not be a bunch of meat shields to save him again if he drew another powerful flying creature to himself!

The reason why he slowed down wasn’t because he felt that it was absolutely safe here, but because he realized that the colors he saw seemed to have become slightly brighter.

Although the vegetation was still sparse, Zhang Che noticed that occasionally there would be bits of bright, fresh green grass between those dark green ones entering his eyes.

How could such bright colors, filled with signs of life, escape from Zhang Che’s sharp senses?

He had the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon gradually slow down, then flew to a fresh green bush. He saw that although this tiny patch of grass wasn’t considered lush and was almost completely blocked off by the surrounding strange dark green bushes, it was growing resiliently!

After looking closely for quite some time, a golden ray of light suddenly shot out from between his brows. The Golden Elephorse King, Hanxue’s scarlet figure, appeared before him.

-I’m finally out! At long last! Master Daddy must have almost forgotten about me…-

How excited must Hanxue be? It felt like he was sentenced to an indefinite jail sentence and had served for a dozen years in there. When he had completely lost all hope, he suddenly found himself set free when he woke up from his sleep. Words alone could never express the joy he felt.

As such, he raised his neck up high, wanting to let out a long cry to vent the emotions bottled up in him, but Zhang Che quickly jumped over and slapped his head.

“Don’t cry out! Who knows if there’s any powerful strange creature around? Are you trying to murder your master daddy?”

Hanxue immediately showed a resentful expression.

Afterwards, Zhang Che continued, “Here, see if you can eat this patch of fresh grass.”

Hanxue immediately ran up with short steps. First, he took a whiff of it, then extended his long tongue out and wrapped around the grass, bringing them into his mouth, and slowly chewed on them, his eyes narrowed into slits.

Zhang Che was overjoyed. -I finally found some normal vegetation!-

Didn’t this mean that he might encounter creatures with flesh and blood if he continued going forward?

Zhang Che’s anticipation grew. He didn’t recall Hanxue back into his spiritual sea, in case that fellow grew to resent him. Instead, Zhang Che jumped onto Hanxue’s back and galloped forward with the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon guarding at his side.

Hanxue was very excited to finally be able to run around once more, although it was a pity it couldn’t make any sound to express the agitation in his heart, leaving it slightly depressed.

Perhaps he hadn’t taken a breather outside for too long, but Hanxue grew more excited the more he ran. Before he realized it, he was running at his maximum speed, racing across the land like a red sports car. The wind resistance blew Zhang Che’s hair back.

Zhang Che narrowed his eyes, relishing in this feeling that he hadn’t felt for a long time, thinking, -It’s not bad to relax like this once in a while, riding on Hanxue. Although it would be better if it was safer in the secret plane!-

————

Hanxue ran for dozens of kilometers. Freshly-colored vegetation appeared more and more frequently, from small patches of grass to short bushes, and in the end a small emerald green forest appeared ahead.

In that forest, a few small wild beasts with long necks suddenly heard galloping sounds and turned to look in his direction warily. Afterwards, they dispersed in confusion and ran off in different directions toward the other side of the forest.

Just a glance and Zhang Che knew that this was a group of creatures with flesh and blood!
