“Follow me!”

Mu Ningxue summoned her six Wind Wings and glided across the sea of grass while leading the way. Her Wind Wings were able to leave a special track behind. As long as the group was following the track, it would speed them up greatly.

“Six wings…” Shao Ru murmured, looking at Mu Ningxue leading the way.

As a matter of fact, Shao Ru was on her way south, planning to visit Fanxue Mountain to challenge the strongest female participant of the World College Tournament, Mu Ningxue! She did not expect to stumble into her here. However, she immediately lost confidence after learning that Mu Ningxue’s Wind Element had already reached the third-tier, even when her primary Element was Ice!

If her Wind Element was already this strong, what about the Ice Element she was born with?

She followed the wind trail with a wry smile. She was wondering if she should change her mind!

“Is Bola sleeping again!?” Mo Fan asked.

“Mmm, he asked me to apologize to you on his behalf,” Mu Ningxue said.

Mo Fan felt his balls hurting. He thought he would have an extremely powerful subordinate whom he could command as he wished after bringing Bola back to his country. To his surprise, apart from the time when he stirred up a great scene at the Beiyu Enforcement Union, the guy had been asleep for twenty-five hours every day. He was not that surprised that the guy had been alive for more than a thousand years!

“But still, it’s a relief that you’ve made it in time. We’re about to run out of energy,” Mo Fan said.

Mu Ningxue’s Wind Magic was outstanding. They were able to gradually distance themselves from the demon creatures that were chasing them.

—

They eventually left the valley. The group went right into the mountains. The Rainbow-Tailed Demon Sparrows were quite a distance away, but it seemed the high-level creatures had no intention of giving up the pursuit!

If they wanted to stop the chase, they would have to take out the Commander-level creatures. Otherwise, the Rainbow-Tailed Demon Sparrows and the army of Kingkong Demon Macaques would eventually catch up to them.

“Let’s take out the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger!” Mo Fan halted in his tracks and stared at the creature around a thousand meters away.

A distance of a thousand meters was not that far for a Commander-level creature. The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger soon showed up. The bright-colored Four-Lives Salamander Tiger was surprised that the humans had stopped running…

“Heaven Spider Ice Locking Formation!”

Mu Ningxue was extremely familiar with fighting alongside Mo Fan. She promptly set up a trap with her Ice Locks when Mo Fan decided to turn around and fight.

The thick ice chains rapidly wove around the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger and constructed a deadly formation. The chains tied the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger down firmly and wrapped around its limbs, while the icy frost penetrated its blood and bones. The strong formation immediately prevented the creature from moving.

Mu Ningxue was in charge of restraining and binding the targets while Mo Fan was in charge of dealing the killing blows. They were more than happy to keep it that way. The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger soon had a taste of Mo Fan’s Sky Lightning Claw with its damage amplified twelvefold. The creature could not dodge a single Sky Lightning Claw while bound by the Heaven Spider Ice Locking Formation…

However, as expected of a strong Commander-level creature, the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger’s skin was incredibly tough. The Sky Lightning Claw had inflicted serious injuries on the creature, but it was not enough to take its life!

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger broke free of the ice chains. The pieces of ice turned into dark arc-shaped rays, slashing in Mu Ningxue’s direction.

“Plummeting Rays!”

“Plummeting Rays!”

Two voices yelled almost simultaenously. The first person to cast the Advanced Light Spell was Zhao Manyan. He controlled the light to form a strong layer of defense around Mu Ningxue, further strengthened by the wooden clapper. Even the powerful attack of a Commander-level creature was unlikely to break through Zhao Manyan’s Light Spell.

The second Plummeting Rays were from Shao Ru. Her Plummeting Rays were not for defensive purposes. She was firing the light rays at the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger instead!

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger was in an attacking stance, so it was unable to dodge the attack in time. The golden rays further enlarged the wounds that Mo Fan’s lightning had left on the creature. The paralyzing lightning and burning light continued to inflict pain on the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger. It kept uttering deep groans.

“Attack!”

As Mo Fan gave the order, many giant white wolves came out from a Dimensional Gate and pounced at the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger already covered in wounds, the Flying Creek Snow Wolf in the lead.

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger wove through the wolves nimbly. It was indeed very experienced in combat, able to take out the white wolves with ease. It even knocked the Flying Creek Snow Wolf flying with a swing of its paw.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was enraged. He ignored his injuries and came back. He was able to utilize the full potential of his lineage since Mu Ningxue was around. The injuries were nothing to him!

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf unleashed the full power of his lineage. His strength immediately skyrocketed. He would continue to grow stronger as the surrounding temperature continued to drop!

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger was a Great Commander-level creature, so its level was superior to the Flying Creek Snow Wolf. However, it carelessly gave the Flying Creek Snow Wolf a chance to bite a huge chunk of its flesh off after the Flying Creek Snow Wolf started using his full strength. Blood kept pouring out from the wound. Its speed had fallen dramatically, too!

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger let out a few cries, and decided to withdraw temporarily. It seemed to be waiting for its reinforcements. Mo Fan immediately used the Nyx Regime to trap the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger and make sure it was stranded.

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger started emitting a beastly glow. Its injured body suddenly grew stronger!

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was about to deal a serious blow to the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger, but the creature was able to pin the Flying Creek Snow Wolf down and tear into his neck with its fangs!

Luckily, the Flying Creek Snow Wolf had spent most of his existence fighting battles of life and death. He swiped his claws at the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger’s eyes as soon as he was pinned down. The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger realized it would no longer stand a chance if it lost its eyes. It quickly let go of the Flying Creek Snow Wolf’s neck and backed away…

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf quickly withdrew. Fresh blood kept pouring out of the creature’s neck, not showing any sign of stopping. Mo Fan was utterly dumbfounded by the sight. He quickly took out the medicine that Xinxia had given him and let the Flying Creek Snow Wolf consume it.

“The creature’s aura was clearly weakening just then. How did it become so strong all of a sudden?” Zhao Manyan asked.

“This creature has four lives. It Awakened its second life to recover from the injuries!” Lingling told them.

“Damn it, it almost killed my wolf!” Mo Fan let out a relieved sigh when he saw the Flying Creek Snow Wolf was in a stable condition. Luckily, Xinxia had prepared some extremely valuable medicine for him before he parted ways with her. Otherwise, the Flying Creek Snow Wolf would most likely have died from his injuries, since there was no Healer around!

Either way, the Great Commander-level creature was a formidable opponent. It was difficult for him to defeat the creature with just his Lightning Spells, since Little Flame Belle was not available for the time being!

The giant white wolves lost their calm when they saw the Flying Creek Snow Wolf suffering serious injuries. These loyal creatures pounced at the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger recklessly, just to inflict more wounds on it.

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger had recovered its strength after giving up on its first life. The injuries that were inflicted on it before had disappeared. Mo Fan and his crew had never seen such a rare species.

“I’ll kill you even if you have nine lives!” Mo Fan was infuriated, and eager to avenge his wolf.

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger was well aware of how strong Mo Fan’s lightning was. It tried its best to dodge the Lightning Spells. Mu Ningxue and Shao Ru knew Mo Fan’s twelvefold lightning was their only way to inflict serious damage on the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger. They kept using their Ice and Plant Magic to restrict the movements of the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger.

Shao Ru’s Demon Tree Hand came in very handy. The Demon Tree Hand grabbed the Salamander Tiger’s legs firmly while Mu Ningxue’s ice froze them in place. The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger could only watch two Deadly Silent Rays crossing paths before it, triggering a strong lightning explosion. The thick lightning bolts penetrated its body and destroyed its organs!

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger chose to retreat again. However, the Nyx Regime was still around. The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger was struggling to break free from the maze of darkness. Mo Fan knew there was a great chance that the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger would give up on its current life and be reborn again. He quickly activated the Giant Shadow Spikes…

Countless shadow swords nailed the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger in place just as it broke free from the ice!

“Icebound Coffin!” A huge ice coffin fell from the sky and landed right on the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger.

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger was no longer able to move. The frost had stopped its blood from flowing too, stopping it from switching its blood.

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger had four lives because it could switch its blood as it wished. Its body contained three reserves of blood. Each time it switched its blood, it would mend its wounds and strengthen its flesh, allowing it to regain its fighting capacity. However, if the creature was killed before it could switch its blood, or if its blood stopped flowing, it meant its death was just around the corner!

It did not have extra lives that allowed it to resurrect from the dead, nor did it have the ability to regenerate its body after it was chopped into pieces. It was just faking that it had four lives.

Mu Ningxue immediately changed her approach after hearing Lingling’s explanation of the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger’s secret. She decided to penetrate the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger’s body with her ice and freeze its blood while it was trying to switch it out. That would stop the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger from recovering from its injuries again!

“Let’s go!” Mu Ningxue said to the others.

“Aren’t we going to kill it first?” Shao Ru was confused.

The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger had a strong tracking ability. It could still follow their trail even when they were far away. It would just lead the rest of the demon creatures to them!

“It’s already dead,” Mu Ningxue said.

Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were familiar with Mu Ningxue’s character. They quickly followed the trail of wind she was leaving without further ado and left the area. The army of Rainbow-Tailed Demon Sparrows and Kingkong Demon Macaques had almost arrived, as they had spent a long time just taking out the Four-Lives Salamander Tiger…

Shao Ru followed the rest of the group doubtfully. She suddenly heard a huge crack from behind them after they had run five hundred meters away. The Icebound Coffin suddenly cracked into pieces. The Four-Lives Salamander Tiger inside it was turned into an ice statue. It shattered into pieces, together with the Icebound Coffin!
