Xia Muqing shielded Jiang Yifan behind her before she stared right into the ferocious beasts’ eyes.
The ferocious beasts stopped in their tracks, their eyes flickering with struggle.
Xiao Chenglin didn’t panic. He took out a white flute that he had prepared. Everyone had seen this flute before in Old Master Xiao’s possession.
As soon as the flute was played, the eyes of the ferocious beasts sparkled with a red light. They opened their mouths and growled at the two of them.
Xia Muqing could only retreat with Jiang Yifan. There were too many ferocious beasts and she was unwilling to hurt them, so she was at a disadvantage.
A figure swiftly flashed past the two of them, followed by the sound of heavy objects landing on the ground.
The ferocious beasts that were the closest to Xia Muqing were all sent flying. Only the beast closest to Jiang Yifan was unharmed.
Fortunately, Xia Muqing pulled him in time and he wasn’t injured.
Xiao Chenglin’s expression darkened. He raised his head and asked, “Who’s hiding?”
Naturally, no one responded. The surroundings were silent.
His expression was somewhat ugly. He continued blowing the flute and said, “No matter who comes today, you’re all dead.”
After being tricked a few times, Xiao Chenglin had completely lost his patience.
Initially, he wanted to spare Xia Muqing’s because of her beauty. But now, it seemed like there wasn’t a need.
Xiao Chenglin had just finished speaking when there was a series of earth-shaking sounds behind him.
The moment they turned around, their expressions became filled with terror.
A large group of ferocious beasts charged in their direction, and the scene was like a beast tide.
Wang San shouted in a daze, “Beast tide, beast tide!”
They wanted to flee, but in the blink of an eye, the ferocious beasts appeared in front of them. However, they didn’t hurt them and instead stepped over them.
Jiang Yifan looked fearful and nervous as he pulled Xia Muqing to escape. Xia Muqing smiled instead and said, “Long time no see.”
Then, under Jiang Yifan’s stunned gaze, these beasts sat obediently in front of Xia Muqing and raised their right claws in response.
Putting their relationship aside, just the way these beasts sat like a human made them look awkward.
A snake had actually used its tail to mimic the shape of two legs as it sat on the ground. Needless to say, the vicious birds tried their best to straighten their bodies.
Xia Muqing smiled and said, “You don’t have to be afraid. These are my friends.”
Jiang Yifan was dumbfounded.
A figure hiding in the dark almost fell from the tree, causing the leaves to tremble.
Xia Muqing’s gaze swept across the figure casually.
That person’s body stiffened and quickly changed to another hiding spot.
The members of the Xiao family were still being sat on by the ferocious beasts as they struggled to crawl out from the cracks.
Xiao Chenglin’s flamboyant clothes were covered in weeds and mud. He had never suffered such humiliation, but he was unwilling to admit defeat. He couldn’t defeat them, so he had to swallow his anger.
Xia Muqing spoke to the beasts and walked towards the entrance with Jiang Yifan.
Jiang Yifan nervously jumped over the ferocious beasts on the ground. He would probably never forget this experience.
After the two entered the cave, the beasts dispersed.
Xiao Chenglin stared angrily at the entrance of the cave. Wang San whispered with fear, “Master Xiao, why don’t we retreat?”
Xiao Chenglin spat angrily and said, “No, we’ll wait here.”
After Xia Muqing entered, she felt waves of rolling sounds beneath her feet. Was the magma beneath her feet?
Jiang Yifan also sensed it. He stomped on the rocks beneath his feet, causing the vibrations.
Now, they were certain that the magma was under their feet.
The two of them became much more careful. It would be terrible if they fell.
The closer they got to the cave, the faster the temperature rose. When they walked in again, they saw a little fire.
There was a hole the size of a water tank on the ground, and one could see the surging magma inside.
