Although Tang Yuan was dissatisfied, he did not dare to go against the First Elder's wishes. He had made a huge mistake in this mission, resulting in his current situation.
He originally thought that this mission would be very easy. After he completed it, he would be able to leave a good impression on his father. At the same time, he would be able to befriend the Second Elder and the First Elder, completely suppressing his second brother. Now, it seemed like all his hopes were dashed.
He could only hope to bring the little Spirit Fox back and see if he could make up for his mistake and reduce his punishment to the lowest.
The blue clothed man looked at the departing group with a strange expression. It was as though he already knew that Tang Feng would make such a decision. He withdrew his smile and said, "First Elder, follow me back!"
"Senior Leng, you … are you right? Go back?" Tang Feng said in astonishment.
The blue clothed man said coldly, "That Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox is just a spent force. It will not have any combat strength left after a while. I do not wish to let the Xiao Clan people off so easily."
Tang Feng's brain could not process what the blue clothed man was trying to do. "Since that is the case, why did you ask Tang Yuan and the rest to leave?"
The blue clothed man smiled, "A group of Martial Masters would not be of much help even if they stayed. It would be troublesome if they were discovered by the Xiao Clan. It would be better to leave as soon as possible."
Actually, the blue clothed man did not intend to let the group of people leave alive. This group of people brought along their cubs and would soon be caught by the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox. At that time, there would be no chance of survival.
This group of people only had one purpose: to lure the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox away. They would not let the berserk Six-Tailed Spirit Fox find the blue clothed man. The berserk Six-Tailed Spirit Fox was already a Martial King. The blue clothed man did not want to clash with it. He only hoped that they could lure it away for as long as possible.
Just at this moment, the roars of Spirit Beasts came from behind them. The blue clothed man looked at the Spirit Beasts behind him. They were five Rank 4 Spirit Beasts, Purple Arm Apes.
"Earth Dragon Wave!"
The blue clothed man snorted coldly. Suddenly, a ripple appeared on the ground. It spun slowly like a spiral, like a swimming snake.
"Boom!"
A huge Earth Dragon broke out of the ground. Its surging energy shattered all the rocks on the ground. It roared angrily and swung its tail violently at the four Purple Arm Apes.
The five purple-armed apes couldn't dodge in time and were all hit. The power of the dragon's tail instantly sent them flying. Then, the dragon's head charged forward, and the four purple-armed apes couldn't get up anymore.
"Let's go!" Looking at the dumbfounded Tang Feng, the man in blue said indifferently.
The two of them walked away quietly, completely unaware that Xiao Chen's Divine Sense had already seen everything. By changing the way he used his Spiritual Sense, the range of his detection doubled. Xiao Chen inadvertently scanned this group of people.
Withdrawing his Spiritual Sense, Xiao Chen was astonished in his heart. The strength of a Martial Saint was too horrifying. He defeated five Rank 4 Spirit Beasts in an instant.
After informing Xiao Yulan, Xiao Chen immediately left the encampment and chased after Tang Yuan and the others. Currently, the strongest person in this group was only a Martial Master. Furthermore, they were all injured.
What Xiao Chen wanted to do now was to snatch the infant of the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox. The offspring of the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox were naturally Rank 6 Spirit Beasts. When they grew up, they would not need to evolve to have six tails.
There was a cultivation method for Demonic Beasts in the Compendium of Cultivation. It should be able to be used for Spirit Beasts as well. A Spirit Beast that was naturally Rank 6, with the help of the Compendium of Cultivation, would definitely be of great help to Xiao Chen.
This was the reason why Xiao Chen had to snatch the infant of the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox. Furthermore, he had the Spirit Blood Jade. After he snatched it, he could instantly seal it and hide the aura of the infant, not fearing the revenge of the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox.
After Xiao Chen left the encampment, he immediately used the Gravity Spell and slowly flew up. He did not dare to fly too high, as there were many flying Spirit Beasts in Seven Horn Mountain.
Because the Gravity Spell was too slow to execute, its usefulness in actual combat was greatly reduced. However, it was very useful for traveling. Xiao Chen locked his Spiritual Sense on Tang Yuan and the others as he slowly followed them.
In his Spiritual Sense, Tang Yuan and the others were already entangled by a group of Rank 4 Spirit Beasts. Xiao Chen also felt a strong aura in the distance, rushing over with all its might. It should be the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox that had already gone berserk.
After traveling for a few more minutes, the figures of Tang Yuan and the others finally appeared before Xiao Chen's eyes. Xiao Chen, who was in the air, quietly stopped on a tree branch, observing the group of people below.
Of the seven of them, aside from Tang Yuan, who was a Superior Grade Martial Disciple, the other six were Medial Grade or Inferior Grade Martial Masters. The group of Spirit Beasts surrounding them were three Rank 4 Blood Wolves. A Rank 4 Blood Wolf was equivalent to a Martial Grand Master.
It was only a matter of time before these seven people were defeated. Even if they could defeat this group of Blood Wolves, with the speed of the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox, it would be able to catch up. At that time, they would die even more miserably.
Xiao Chen just had to wait patiently for an opportunity. He did not need to take too much risk.
"First Young Master, you should leave first. We will hold them off," one of the seven people said.
Tang Yuan had been waiting for these words. After saying these polite words, he immediately turned around and left with the infant Spirit Fox in his arms.
The opportunity had come. Xiao Chen grinned. His body swayed gently in the air as he quietly followed.
Tang Yuan ran down the mountain with all his might. Looking at the infant Spirit Fox in his embrace, he felt helpless and unresigned. If it were not for that strange person, he would not have ended up in such a situation.
"Boom!"
In the dark night, a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed in front of him. Tang Yuan was startled and quickly retreated. He thought in fear, Could it be him?
After the lightning faded, Xiao Chen's figure slowly appeared. He looked at Tang Yuan with a smile that was not a smile, "Young Master Tang, long time no see."
When Tang Yuan saw Xiao Chen's appearance clearly, he said in disbelief, "It's … it's you, Xiao Chen. How is it possible …"
"Hand over the infant Six-Tailed Spirit Fox," Xiao Chen said coldly, ignoring Tang Yuan's astonishment.
Tang Yuan was stunned for a while before he suddenly laughed loudly, "You hid your strength very well. All of us misjudged you. However, I hate people like you who like to hide their strength the most."
"Do you want this infant Spirit Fox? I will kill it now and none of us will get it. "
Tang Yuan seemed to have recalled something extremely painful. He raised the infant Spirit Fox high up in the air and ruthlessly threw it to the ground.
"Sou!"
A strand of purple flame spun a few times on Xiao Chen's fingertip and shot towards Tang Yuan. In the blink of an eye, the purple flame arrived in front of Tang Yuan.
Tang Yuan was startled and held the infant Spirit Fox in his embrace again. He extended his right palm and used his Essence to form a small Essence Shield.
"Chi!"
The flame was like an awl as it easily pierced through the Essence Shield in Tang Yuan's hand. After that, it drilled into his arm. Tang Yuan cried out miserably as his right hand was quickly burned to ashes. The Spirit Fox in his embrace also fell to the ground.
Xiao Chen shouted and stomped on the ground. He flew up and kicked Tang Yuan, sending him flying. Then, he extended his hand and caught the infant Spirit Fox.
"Don't kill me, don't kill … me …"
Tang Yuan, who was lying on the ground, looked at the ferocious Xiao Chen and begged for help. He no longer had the guts he had earlier. Leaving such a person alive would be a disaster. Naturally, Xiao Chen would not let him off.
Xiao Chen flicked his finger and the Purple Thunder True Fire shot out. In the next moment, Tang Yuan was struck by the purple flames. Before he could even cry out, he was burned to ashes.
Looking at the ashes on the ground, Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze and looked at the infant Spirit Fox in his embrace.
Its snow-white skin was not tainted by any dust. With its eyes closed, the Spirit Fox looked like a peaceful kitten. It was extremely cute. This little fellow did not know that its mother had gone crazy because of it.
Xiao Chen felt that it was a pity. He took out the Spirit Blood Jade and bit his finger. Then, he dripped a drop of his blood onto the Spirit Blood Jade. Xiao Chen immediately felt as if a trace of his soul had been extracted and poured into the Spirit Blood Jade.
Xiao Chen was slightly astonished. Nature was truly a work of the gods. Such a miraculous item could be formed naturally. Recollecting his thoughts, he followed the method that Xiao Yulan taught him and made a small cut on the infant Spirit Fox. The Spirit Fox's blood also dripped onto the Spirit Blood Jade.
"Zhi ya!"
The little Spirit Fox woke up from the pain and struggled to jump out of Xiao Chen's embrace. Before it landed, a strong suction came from the Spirit Blood Jade and sucked the little Spirit Fox in.
Xiao Chen sent out a strand of Spiritual Sense into the Spirit Blood Jade. After it entered, an empty space appeared in front of him. The little Spirit Fox stood quietly in the air. The wounds on its body had already healed. It opened its eyes and looked around curiously.
Xiao Chen withdrew his Spiritual Sense. Before he could do anything, a strong aura came over. In the dark night, a resplendent light appeared above Xiao Chen, suppressing Xiao Chen's aura. He did not dare to make any moves.
"Bang!"
The light landed on the ground and a ten-meter tall Six-Tailed Spirit Fox appeared in front of Xiao Chen. Its six white tails were at least twenty meters long, pointing straight towards the sky. Its eyes were bloodshot as it stared at Xiao Chen.
An overwhelming baleful aura came from the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox. Under this pressure, Xiao Chen found it difficult to breathe. His forehead was filled with sweat and his hands were trembling non-stop.
Why did they come so quickly? Xiao Chen looked at the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox in astonishment. These Six-Tailed Spirit Foxes came at the wrong time.
"Ao!"
At the critical moment, the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit in Xiao Chen's body let out a long drawn-out cry. The might of a Holy Beast burst forth and blocked the soaring baleful aura. Xiao Chen finally regained his ability to move.
Just as Xiao Chen was preparing to retreat, the huge Six-Tailed Spirit Fox suddenly collapsed. With a loud boom, it broke countless trees and kicked up a large cloud of dust.
"Haha, this beast is finally out of strength. Elder Tang, go and deal with that Xiao Clan brat and take revenge for your Young Master. This old man will deal with these Six-Tailed Spirit Foxes." The blue-clothed man chased after the aura of the Six-Tailed Spirit Foxes and laughed loudly.
Tang Feng snorted coldly and did not say anything. He stared at Xiao Chen. He and the blue-clothed man had just arrived when they saw Tang Yuan dying at the hands of Xiao Chen. If it were not for the blue-clothed man holding him back, he would have rushed over.
