Jie Du and Hong Xiugu were startled awake. They turned around and saw a cloud of dust on the horizon. An Iron War Lion with a golden mane was galloping towards them, letting out an earth-shattering roar!
This was the beast that Hong Xiugu led her team to hunt this time. This beast was ferocious. It had copper skin and iron bones, and was invulnerable. Even a master in the fourth layer of the Perfected Person Realm would have a hard time subduing it.
Hong Xiugu gathered everyone's strength, set up all kinds of traps, made all kinds of preparations, and finally made up her mind to challenge this overlord of the Gobi Desert after meeting Master Hao.
She didn't expect to meet it so soon.
"Brothers, stop the enemy!"
"Prepare the iron caltrops!"
"Crossbows, seal its retreat!"
Hong Xiugu made a prompt decision and issued several orders in succession. Only then did she rush to the front of Master Hao's carriage and plead in a low voice, "Master Hao, this beast is already here. Please do something!"
In order to hunt the Iron War Lion, someone had to be able to hold it back for a while. Otherwise, it would run as fast as lightning, and no one could do anything to stop it.
Hong Xiugu shouted, but no one in Master Hao's carriage answered.
What's going on?
Hong Xiugu and Jie Du were a little confused. Jie Du was anxious and rushed to pull down the curtain of the carriage, but there was no one in the carriage.
"He ran away!"
Hong Xiugu reacted and leaped onto the roof of the carriage. She saw a black shadow hurriedly running in another direction. It was obvious that he was running away!
"Why is this guy so useless?" Jie Du was stunned. Master Hao was usually full of bragging. Why did he run away when he saw the real thing?
Wasn't … wasn't he just leaving them here?
If there wasn't such a strong master holding the Iron War Lion back, the whole team would suffer great losses if this agile beast ran away. If they knew this, why would they spread all kinds of drugs to tempt the Iron War Lion?
"Why?"
Hong Xiugu gritted her teeth.
"Because he's a fake." It was unknown when Shen Zhenyi had come down from the carriage. He said indifferently, "He doesn't have the ability to kill the Wolf King of the Grassland. He probably just picked up the corpse of the Wolf King and came out to brag. Now that he has met you, he wants to earn some extra money."
Shen Zhenyi reckoned that the heart of the wolf king that Master Hao had picked up was probably the one he had accidentally killed on the side of the road. He didn't care about this kind of low-grade material, but he didn't expect that someone would use it to play tricks on him.
Of course, Hong Xiugu told Master Hao that regardless of the outcome of this trip to the Gobi Desert, she would still pay him the remuneration. Master Hao also had a fluke mentality, hoping to make a fortune by going one round.
Who would have thought that Hong Xiugu would be so well-prepared? Along the way, she sprinkled some medicine to attract the Iron War Lion, which really attracted the Iron War Lion. Master Hao knew that he was definitely not a match for this kind of demonic beast. He was afraid that he would be unlucky, so he turned around and ran.
However, his luck was still bad. He didn't run far before he lost his footing and fell into a cave. A twisting Earth Dragon darted out from the side and swallowed Master Hao into its stomach in one gulp. Only then did it delve into the ground in satisfaction and disappear without a trace.
"It's … it's over!"
When Jie Du heard Shen Zhenyi's words, he still couldn't believe it. When he saw that Master Hao had lost his life, he was dumbfounded.
The fierce Iron War Lion was right in front of him, but the main force fighting the monster was a fake. Was he going to die here today?
Shen Zhenyi narrowed his eyes and saw that the Iron War Lion was getting closer and closer. The originally orderly hunting group had already begun to disperse. They originally thought that it was a hunt, but now it had turned into a massacre. Who would still have the will to fight?
"Xiugu, thank you for taking care of me these days. It's fate that I travel with you. Since that's the case, let me help you get rid of this Iron War Lion. It's a small compensation."
Shen Zhenyi took a step forward and patted the dust on his sleeves.
On one hand, Hong Xiugu was a good person. On the other hand, Master Hao's deceit was related to him. He helped once, and it was considered karma. They didn't owe each other anything.
"You?"
Hong Xiugu couldn't believe it. She quickly pulled his sleeve and said, "Young Master Shen, don't try to be brave. The Iron War Lion is invulnerable. Even if he stands still, you may not be able to hurt him. You should quickly retreat. We'll hold him here. Maybe there's still a chance of survival. "
If they scattered now, they would only become the prey of the Iron War Lion. They could only fight. Shen Zhenyi had nothing to do with the hunting group. Hong Xiugu hoped that he had a chance to escape with his life — although it was quite slim.
Jie Du laughed wildly. He was mocking Shen Zhenyi's words just now. "Kid, are you scared silly? Do you think that the monster in front is one of those monsters that your family raised for you to practice? This is the overlord of the Gobi Desert, the Iron War Lion! If you have the ability to repel it, I'll kneel down and kowtow to you! But I think you'll just die in vain if you go up! "
He deeply hated Shen Zhenyi. At this last moment, he still wanted to show off in front of Hong Xiugu. He couldn't wait for him to rush up and be torn to pieces by the Iron War Lion.
"What's so difficult about this?"
Shen Zhenyi floated forward. Hong Xiugu only felt her hand slip. She didn't know why she didn't grab his sleeve. She could only watch as he rushed towards the Iron War Lion.
"Be careful!"
Hong Xiugu screamed at the top of her lungs. Shen Zhenyi didn't care at all.
"Jie Du, remember to kowtow and admit your mistake!"
Before he finished speaking, his body had already arrived in front of the Iron War Lion!
Roar —
The Iron War Lion roared toward the sky. Its majestic mane spread out and fluttered in the wind. Its body was huge. It was originally about ten feet long. Its head was as big as a basin, its eyes were like copper bells, and its teeth were like swords. It flashed with a cold light and carried with it a bloody stench. It was daunting.
Shen Zhenyi's body looked extremely thin and small in front of this huge monster. His rushing momentum was like a moth flying into a flame.
Hong Xiugu closed her eyes in pain.
Jie Du laughed crazily. Even if he wasn't lucky today, to be able to see this kid being torn to pieces first, he could still vent his anger!
"Die! Die! "
He gritted his teeth, looking forward to the next cruel scene. Only Shen Zhenyi's blood and flesh and his screams could comfort him as he was about to die. He strangely looked forward to this scene. Even if it meant that they would all die, it wouldn't be a pity.
Then … Jie Du saw a dazzling sword light.
