Chapter 12638 Just teasing you

Chapter 12638 Just teasing you
"It's no use, Young City Lord. This giant magma python is too powerful. We are no match for it at all. Judging from the momentum and strength of this giant beast, it is at least a fourth-order primary demon beast, equivalent to a low-level warrior in the Divine Transformation Realm. And the strongest among us is only at the peak of the Divine Body Realm. We can't compete with it at all." Zhang Ding shouted in horror, with endless fear in his voice.

Gu Qingyao's eyes flashed with determination. She quickly glanced around and then decisively gave the order: "Retreat!"

This decision had actually been lingering in her mind for a long time. Facing such a powerful enemy, if she continued to persist, more people would die. She couldn't let these people sacrifice their lives for her in vain.

"retreat!"

Following Gu Qingyao's order, everyone shouted in unison and began to flee in all directions. For a moment, the scene became a little chaotic, and everyone wanted to escape from this terrifying beast as quickly as possible.

During the escape, people were filled with panic and anxiety, and no one noticed that some people had been separated in the chaos, and some had even disappeared.

However, at this critical moment of life and death, no one was in the mood to pay attention to these things. They only knew that escaping from here alive was the most important thing at this moment.

After running for a while, Gu Qingyao suddenly found that Ling Xiao was missing.

"Where's Yu Hua?"

Gu Qingyao asked.

"That kid is probably dead, why bother?"

Zhang Ding wished that Ling Xiao would be killed by the giant magma python. Even if the giant magma python didn't kill him, he would still take action.

"You guys go to our originally planned destination first, I'll be there soon!"

Gu Qingyao said this, and her figure disappeared on the spot. Her movement was extremely fast, and might be more terrifying than some warriors in the Divine Transformation Realm.

When Zhang Ding wanted to chase him, it was too late.

"Let's go. The young city lord's agility is unique in our Huoyun City. He will be fine."

The middle-aged man in the lead thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, we are paid for a job. We are not bodyguards, but we are hunting the lion."

These people are quite realistic. If possible, they will naturally protect Gu Qingyao, but if they encounter danger, they will only do what they want to do.

"Captain, I better go take a look."

Zhang Ding suddenly said.

"Don't be reckless. Don't risk your life just to kill an irrelevant kid. You can't afford to mess with that giant lava python."

The middle-aged man saw through Zhang Ding's thoughts at a glance and said coldly.

"I know how to do it."

Zhang Ding smiled and turned to leave.

He won't be willing to do anything unless he sees Ling Xiao die.

On the other side, the giant magma python that once terrified everyone was now lying quietly on the ground, lifeless.

Its huge body no longer tumbled, and its red scales lost their original luster and looked dull. Obviously, this powerful monster was dead.

Ling Xiao stood not far away, staring calmly at the fiery red beast lying on the ground.

His eyes fell on the crystal core of the monster, which was the most precious thing on the magma python.

However, Ling Xiao just shook his head slightly, and seemed not to be very interested in this crystal core.

"Although this thing is better than the ordinary low-grade fire spirit stones, it is really not worth the risk." Ling Xiao said to himself.

He knew very well that they had paid a great price to obtain this crystal core, and some people even lost their lives. However, in this land of Fire Continent, the source of energy had disappeared, and they could only obtain the energy needed for cultivation in this way.

However, even a little bit of meat is still meat. He collected the crystal core of the magma python and sighed helplessly. If he had known that this group of people was so weak, he would have simply come in alone.

Of course, it’s okay now, as I can act alone. It’s just that I’m not familiar with this place, and I don’t know where to find the Heart of Fire.

After all, the Fire Cloud Stone will only react when it is within ten meters of the Fire Heart. It will be useless if it is far away.

"You...you killed it! You killed the giant lava python!"

A voice suddenly sounded, full of astonishment and disbelief.

Ling Xiao turned his head and saw Gu Qingyao standing there, covering her mouth with her hands, her beautiful eyes wide open, obviously shocked to the extreme by the scene before her.

Ling Xiao frowned slightly, looked at Gu Qingyao calmly and asked, "Did you see everything?"

Gu Qingyao seemed to have not recovered from her shock yet. She just nodded repeatedly, her eyes full of fear and confusion.

"What do you want to do?"

"What? Of course, to silence the witness." Ling Xiao suddenly grinned, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

When Gu Qingyao heard this, she was so frightened that she turned pale and ran away. However, her speed was no match for Ling Xiao, and she was blocked by him in an instant.

"You took it seriously? I was just kidding. I don't want to kill such a kind girl like you." Ling Xiao looked at Gu Qingyao's terrified expression and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Only then did Gu Qingyao realize that Ling Xiao was joking with her.

She heaved a sigh of relief, but she was still a little scared. The look she gave Ling Xiao became complicated, with both fear and curiosity.

"You...did you really kill that giant lava python?" Gu Qingyao asked cautiously.

Ling Xiao nodded without denying it. He knew that his strength had been exposed to Gu Qingyao, and there was no point in hiding it any longer.

Gu Qingyao looked at Ling Xiao's calm and confident eyes, and couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration in her heart.

She knew that her previous view of Ling Xiao was too one-sided. It turned out that he was not the weakling who was only good at talking as she had imagined.

"You... aren't you afraid?" Gu Qingyao couldn't help but ask.

Ling Xiao smiled faintly and said, "Afraid? What is there to be afraid of? As long as you are strong enough, you will naturally be fearless."

"By the way, why are you here?"

Ling Xiao was a little curious.

Gu Qingyao said embarrassedly: "I'll come to save you..."

When she said this, she felt even more embarrassed. Ling Xiao in front of her was so powerful, did he still need her to save him?
"You are kind, but you should also be on guard against others. If I were the one with bad intentions, you would probably be dead by now."

Ling Xiao shook his head. This woman might have lived under the protection of her father for too long and was a little too naive.

"Then will you return to the team?"

Gu Qingyao asked.

"No, you guys will only delay my search." Ling Xiao said, "Besides, there's also a fool like Zhang Ding. I just don't bother with him. Otherwise, he would have died many times."

After saying that, Ling Xiao walked forward.

The appearance of this lava python is very strange. According to Gu Qingyao and the others, there shouldn't be such a thing on this road. Since it appeared, it might be because there is some treasure nearby that even the lava python is interested in.
