Release That Demonic Pet

Chapter 33: Do or Die

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the blink of an eye, Li Changsheng’s figure disappeared with the help of the bushes.

Due to Mental Shock, Lin Zheng was temporarily unable to release his omniscience and he did not know if Li Changsheng had set a trap in the jungle.

“Kill him!”

Playing safe, Lin Zheng got off from the Barbarous Bear and directed it and the two Lower Order Wind Wolves to pursue Li Changsheng.

Lin Zheng was very cautious. After all, Li Changsheng might have set up traps for them.

However, that also meant that only two Lower Order Wind Wolves were left to protect Lin Zheng, reducing his level of protection.

Boom~

Suddenly, a violent roar came from the jungle as the Barbarous Bear missed its footing and fell into a trap.

Since they did not have much time to prepare, the trap was not that deep and there were no sharp objects such as bamboo thorns at the bottom.

For the thick-skinned Barbarous Bear, such a trap did not hurt at all. At most, it only hindered its pace slightly.

“Sure enough, there was a trap!” Lin Zheng sneered. While he was happy with his foresight, he knew he had to focus on what was in front and temporarily ignore his surroundings.

“Quicksand Hell!”

The moment the Barbarous Bear fell into the trap, Gopher once again used Quicksand Hell. Bright yellow luster poured into the earth continuously.

In an instant, with the trap as the center, the ground within several meters in radius began to change. The soil quickly turned into sand and rotated, causing the Barbarous Bear’s feet to sink into the quicksand.

Compared to the Middle Order Wind Wolf, the Barbarous Bear’s speed and explosive power were poorer, making it impossible for it to get out of the trap before the Quicksand Hell formed completely.

In the quicksand, the Barbarous Bear’s legs were completely trapped in it and it was unable to break free.

At that moment, the two Wind Wolves bypassed the trap and rushed toward Li Changsheng.

“Gopher, I need your help!”

Under the command of Li Changsheng, Gopher endured its inner fear and tried its best to slow down the two Wind Wolves.

At the same time, Li Changsheng turned around and ran, distancing himself from the trap.

Unfortunately, this method proved to be short-lived. As the Barbarous Bear was a Middle Order demon pet, it only took a few breaths for it to break free from the shackles of Quicksand Hell. After getting out of the trap, it immediately dashed toward Li Changsheng.

Even if Li Changsheng did his best, his speed would still not be able to compare with the Barbarous Bear. The distance between the two of them closed in rapidly and it was almost catching up to him.

Just as Li Changsheng was leading the Barbarous Bear away, a sudden sound broke the air and a vigorous figure attacked Lin Zheng from behind.

It was not someone, but Ai Xi who was hiding in the dark.

To deal with the Middle Order Wind Wolf, Ai Xi had taken a big hit and was temporarily unable to carry Li Changsheng.

Since they were unable to escape, Li Changsheng’s only option left was to risk it all by hiding Ai Xi and Galen, while he tried to attract Lin Zheng’s attention.

Li Changsheng was betting that Lin Zheng was not able to release his omniscience. He was also betting that Lin Zheng would not dare to enter the bushes. As long as he successfully attracted the Barbarous Bear, Ai Xi and Galen who were in hiding would attack and kill Lin Zheng.

As a low-level demon tamer, even if they managed to master some kind of secret skill, self-protection was greatly reduced without protection and guardian from strong demon pets. In addition to that, Lin Zheng was in a Mental Shock state at that time.

“Damn it! Stop him!” Lin Zheng’s expression changed drastically after hearing the noise from behind him as he hurriedly directed the two Wind Wolves to intercept Ai Xi.

At that moment, several finger-thick vines violently drilled up from the ground, binding the forelimbs of the two Wind Wolves.

It turned out that while Ai Xi attacked, Galen had gathered enough energy to use Ground Burrowing Vines, temporarily restricting the mobility of the two Wind Wolves.

Under the vines restriction, the two Wind Wolves fell with their backs facing the ground. At the same time, Ai Xi leaped past the two Wind Wolves and lunged at Lin Zheng.

“Darn it!”

During this critical moment, Lin Zheng was forced to use his omniscience. His sea of consciousness worsened, making his face paler.

In an instant, a blood-colored hexagram appeared, summoning a Single-Horned Python.

In addition to the two Middle Order demon pets, Lin Zheng also had three Lower Order demon pets. However, since they were not as strong, Lin Zheng rarely released them.

It was a pity that the Single-Horned Python had yet to realize what was happening when Ai Xi appeared in front of it, raised its right paw gleaming with white light, and struck it right on its head strongly.

Crack~

Accompanied by the sound of bone fracturing, the Single-Horned Python’s brain burst. Its skull cracked and it fell heavily onto the ground. Its body twitched vigorously a few times until it stopped moving altogether.

As soon as the Single-Horned Python died, Lin Zheng’s Mental Shock worsened. He felt extremely dizzy. There was a sweet taste in his throat and suddenly, he spewed out a big mouthful of blood.

At that time, the two Wind Wolves finally broke free from the shackles of the Ground Burrowing Vines and pounced toward Ai Xi again. With Ai Xi’s injury, it was likely to fall if it was attacked again by the two Wind Wolves.

Unexpectedly, Ai Xi did not dodge them. Instead, it leaped and pounced at Lin Zheng with lightning speed.

Ai Xi’s mouth was opened wide, revealing two rows of its sharp white fangs as he went for Lin Zheng’s throat.

“No!” Lin Zheng was suffering from Mental Shock and was unable to continue summoning his demon pets and perform his secret skill. It was clear that he had lost all ability to defend himself.

In other words, Lin Zheng was no different from an ordinary person now.

Under Lin Zheng’s horrified gaze, Ai Xi pushed him onto the ground as it bit his neck fiercely.

Crack~

When the sound of broken bones was heard, Lin Zheng’s neck spurted out blood. His head tilted, his eyes stared at the sky blankly, leaving only anger, fear, and regret.

Lin Zheng’s death had nothing to do with his strength. In fact, his strength far surpassed Li Changsheng’s. He died because he had underestimated his enemy, eventually causing his own demise.

Lin Zheng did not hurt Li Changsheng as he had wanted to steal the Nature Faerie, and that allowed Li Changsheng to escape.

To pursue Li Changsheng, Lin Zheng and his Middle Order Wind Wolf had split into two groups which led to Li Changsheng killing the Middle Order Wind Wolf easily. The death of the Middle Order Wind Wolf had caused a Mental Shock to Lin Zheng, which subsequently led him to step into Li Changsheng’s trap.

When Lin Zheng died, the two Wind Wolves immediately attacked Ai Xi.

At a critical moment, a burst of green-colored energy emerged and landed on Ai Xi.

In an instant, a large number of cotton spores appeared on Ai Xi’s body, seemingly wrapping it in thick cotton before the two Wind Wolves attacked.

Due to the cotton spores, the impact from the two Wind Wolves’ attacks was diminished and weakened. Ai Xi’s wounds only got more serious, but it was not at critical to the point of threatening its life.

Just when Ai Xi was about to counterattack, the two Wind Wolves suddenly whimpered. Their tails tucked behind, and they stopped attacking Ai Xi. Instead, they turned away and disappeared into the jungle.

They were only Lin Zheng’s temporary demon pets. After Lin Zheng’s death, their temporary bind would automatically cancel and they no longer need to fight for Lin Zheng,

Ai Xi did not give chase. After all, its wounds had not recovered. It could only bear its pain, and follow its Mental Connection to run toward Li Changsheng.
