Chapter 54: 047 Borrowing a Knife

The scent had yet to reach the Double-leaf Grass Snake, but breaking through layers of flame, it had already started indiscriminate attacks.

Leaves flew madly in Du Yu’s direction, the completely irrational Double-leaf Grass Snake venting its ferocity blindly, causing its attack accuracy to be lacking.

But with such a quantity of Double-leaf Flying Sabers, continuing like this, it’s inevitable that some would hit!

"Woo!" Xiaoyan spat out another fireball, and even if it didn’t blast the opponent, the spreading layers of flame could obstruct the enemy’s vision.

Du Yu’s mind spun rapidly, hurriedly commanding, "Ghost Firefly, perform Ghostly Firefly Spin at the location where the fireball exploded!"

"Whoosh~"

Another combined skill was thus born!

The erupting flames were swept up by the Wind and Fire Vortex; too bad the two Demon Pets weren’t powerful enough, otherwise, how terrifying a flaming wall that would be!

"Swish!" Another flying leaf whirled from nowhere, spinning with an eerie arc, and flew past Du Yu’s side.

Du Yu gritted his teeth against the heart-pounding feeling, "Doesn’t it ever get tired?"

Little Fen Yang whispered, "It’s been completely consumed by cold qi, and unless it dies, it probably won’t stop... Move left!"

Du Yu quickly dodged left, the first time in this desperate escape that Little Fen Yang had warned him to dodge.

Sure enough!

Just as Du Yu shifted left, a flying leaf spun rapidly, brushing past him: "This can’t go on, I’ll trigger another Hunting Moment, at the very least it can hold it back for a bit!"

Little Fen Yang: "But then you’ll have a few seconds of blurred vision."

Du Yu’s thoughts raced, suddenly enlightened, "Trees! Twin Trees!"

In his desperate flight, Du Yu had already plunged from the edge of Zone 4 into Zone 5, and with his excellent eyesight, he glimpsed the majestic silhouette of the Twin Trees through the gaps in the leaves.

He had slept by the Twin Trees for two nights, where demon beasts abound, and fights are commonplace.

Du Yu had personally seen the Twin Trees separating two battling demon beasts to stop them from fighting. Frankly, that place is a natural shelter!

"Good idea, let that dumb snake attack the big tree." Little Fen Yang suddenly got excited, "The Double-leaf Flying Sabers seem powerful, could they hack off a piece of bark?"

"Be serious, Little Fen Yang, we’re fleeing for our lives!" Du Yu’s heart felt helpless, hurriedly saying.

"No worries, it got smoked just now~ hee hee."

"Hmm?" Du Yu felt a bit regretful; if he had seized this opportunity and let Xiaoyan blast it soundly, wouldn’t their side have a definite advantage?

But it was unrealistic for Du Yu to turn back now. Rather than counting on the scent impact of Ghost Firefly Burn, it was better to seek the Twin Trees’ shelter!

After all, such a scent is non-lethal and not a strong control-type Demon Skill; too many accidental factors are involved.

Du Yu ran nonstop, not daring to relax for a moment, getting closer to the range of the Twin Trees, with the terrain becoming more open.

Naturally, he saw a Demon Tamer camp at the edge of the Twin Trees. But coming from his direction, he was far from the camp, so it wouldn’t implicate those in the camp.

In the relatively open terrain, Du Yu saw the camp, and the people there clearly noticed him too.

"Hey! Kid, stop running!" A middle-aged man ran out from the camp, quickly approaching, loudly warning.

Du Yu had seen this middle-aged man in jeans and a white shirt before.

Wasn’t he the one who had a conflict with young Demon Tamers and then drove them out of the camp?

Above his head, two gray Little Wind Eagles hovered, seemingly his Demon Pets.

"Another ignorant Paper Crane Disciple." The white-shirted man cursed as he ran, suddenly stopping his momentum and immediately picking up a Black Wood Bow, quickly nocking an arrow aimed at Du Yu.

Du Yu’s expression turned unhappy as he continued to run wildly, "There’s a Double-leaf Grass Snake behind, the one invaded by cold qi!"

The man’s expression changed drastically, hating this group of Paper Crane Disciples, he couldn’t help but curse, "Are you all idiots? Do you not know your limits, and you go provoke it?"

Du Yu was stunned; was this how one speaks upon first meeting the other?

The middle-aged man shouted, "Run north, lead the Double-leaf Grass Snake over there!"

Du Yu was immediately displeased, not stopping for a moment, "Does it matter to you where I run? Who do you think you are?"

Putting aside the urgent situation, just talking about direction and position.

At this moment, Du Yu was far from the camp; he was rushing straight to the base of the tree, not turning toward the camp!

Du Yu’s loud shouts caused mixed reactions among those at the distant camp, all looking towards the camp’s leader—Fan Changhong.

Newbie Demon Tamers who joined the camp huddled together for warmth. Even if the Twin Trees were Guardians, the number of demon beasts here was still too many; nobody could guarantee that an accident wouldn’t happen.

Newbie Demon Tamers paid a fee to join Fan Changhong’s camp seeking shelter, cultivating there, it was normal to pay for peace of mind.

Those who joined the camp naturally listened to Fan Changhong, the "Battalion Commander." As for those who disobeyed, they’d long been expelled.

"I told you to get lost!" Fan Changhong couldn’t hold it any longer and predicted Du Yu’s movement. He loosened his fingers on the bowstring.

"Thud!"

Du Yu’s pupils contracted slightly, urgently stopping his feet, but his forward momentum carried him, sliding several meters on the grass.

"Whoosh~" A Wind Arrow swept past him.

In an instant, Du Yu drew his bow, nocked an arrow!

Under his ashen hoodie, a pair of fiery gaze locked directly on the middle-aged man.

Fan Changhong’s face stiffened, partly due to Du Yu’s stunning eyes, and also because...

Fan Changhong truly didn’t expect this stubborn kid to dare fight back? Was he really not afraid of being beaten?

"Whoosh!"

Du Yu’s Demon Soldier Silver Fire quickly formed a red Fire Arrow, straight at the middle-aged man’s face!

Since the distance was ample, Fan Changhong hurriedly dodged, "Ignorant fool! I’m teaching you on behalf of your school, to not disturb the Twin Trees and risk others!"

Du Yu started running again, his Silver Fire Bow instantly pulled to the limit, pointing again at the man: "Disturb the Twin Trees? The Spirit Soldiers haven’t said anything, what the hell are you barking at?"

It was indeed so, if Du Yu’s act of seeking shelter from the Twin Trees was wrong, the Demon Spirit Soldiers would’ve stopped him, why let him act recklessly?

"Whoosh!" Another Fire Arrow shot out rapidly!

Fan Changhong dodged in haste, cursing furiously, "Damn, a bunch of idiotic disciples..."

It was clear that he had a huge grudge against the Paper Crane Disciples.

Du Yu’s actions aside, Fan Changhong seemed to be venting anger at other Paper Crane Disciples onto Du Yu?

Sizzle!

Du Yu stopped, really stopped this time.

"Du Yu, Du Yu~ the snake’s catching up!"

"Good timing." Du Yu’s face turned grim, suddenly turning and rushing toward Fan Changhong.
