Chapter 61: Idiot, still not going up

Above the valley, at the intersection of the two mountains, a black shadow fell suddenly.

Behind the black shadow, two figures followed.

Those two figures, one holding a sword and one holding a knife, surrounded the black shadow in the middle from the left and right sides, from top to bottom, and finally fell to the ground.

The first thing that caught everyone's eyes was a white-haired old man with disheveled hair.

The old man was also wearing beast skin, and there were stains on his clothes, as if he hadn't taken care of them for years. He held a small knife in his left hand and pinched a ball of white thread in his right hand. A pair of crimson pupils were staring angrily at everyone present, looking as if he was still a bit embarrassed.

And the two people who came down with the old man were Yang Ning and Li Hu, who had not appeared all along. Both of them looked solemn and carried some injuries.

"Father... you... you..."

Among the crowd in the valley, the first to speak was Luo Ming.

It's just that his tone was full of disbelief.

Because the old man who fell from above the valley was his father, Luo Feng.

It's just that as soon as he shouted "Father", he understood something, and the disbelief on his face immediately turned into anger and sadness.

"Ah... I killed so many people to complete the work, you actually destroyed it, actually destroyed it, I want to kill you, kill you!"

The old man turned to the crowd and spoke sharply, his tone full of resentment. Clearly, everyone who had destroyed the giant wood puppet was already angry to the extreme.

"Chief Luo, this Wood Puppet Strange is not simple. The two of us joining forces might not be able to take it down. You five, need to help!"

Yang Ning also spoke, but the solemnity in his tone made Luo Ming's heart tremble slightly.

Since contacting Yang Ning more than half a month ago, this was the first time he had heard such a solemn tone.

Xia Hong, who had been observing the three, looked up at the top of the valley and found that the intersection of the two mountains was one or two thousand meters away from the ground, and a flash of realization flashed in his heart instantly.

He previously thought that Yang Ning and Li Hu had either left or were hiding in the dark, preparing to wait for them to kill the Wood Puppet Strange and then come out as a mantis stalking the cicada, picking the peaches.

Now it seems that he blamed these two wrongly.

When they were dealing with the Wood Puppet Strange in the valley, the two should have been confronting the Wood Puppet Strange above. It was normal that they couldn't perceive the movement on the mountain one or two thousand meters away.

Thinking of this, Xia Hong's eyes became somewhat solemn.

This means that just now, the Wood Puppet Strange was controlling such a large giant wood puppet to deal with the crowd in the valley, while also fighting the two Yang and Li above.

Judging from the injuries on Yang and Li, the Wood Puppet Strange hadn't fallen behind.

And Yang Ning took the initiative to ask the five Earth-Digging Realm powerhouses to help.

The strength of this Wood Puppet Strange was simply beyond imagination!

"Chief Xia, is that Condensing Fire Oil really gone?"

Xia Hong turned his head to meet Luo Ming's expectant eyes, shook his head with an ugly face, and answered: "It's gone. I have two pieces in total, and I used one just now."

Hearing this, Luo Ming's face sank instantly. Xia Hong could see that the Wood Puppet Strange's strength was very strong from the injuries on Yang and Li, and he could naturally see it too.

That Condensing Fire Oil was simply a sharp weapon for dealing with strange creatures. If it was gone, then they would be in trouble today!

"Don't talk nonsense, go up directly. This Wood Puppet Strange hasn't broken through to the intermediate level yet. The seven of us go up together, it will definitely die!"

Li Hu, who was standing beside Yang Ning, couldn't help it. This time he didn't show off as much as before. It should be that he had fought the Wood Puppet Strange on the mountain just now and knew that he and Yang Ning alone couldn't deal with it, so he said the seven of them go up together, counting Luo Ming and the four plus Xia Hong.

He shouted angrily, raised the Yan Ling knife in his hand, and went straight to the Wood Puppet Strange.

Li Hu was arrogant, but his strength was indeed not bad.

He rushed out very fast, arrived at the left side of the Wood Puppet Strange in an instant, and slashed the knife horizontally toward its head. The huge force brought out the wind, blowing the surroundings to rustle. If someone else came, I'm afraid they would die in an instant.

It's just a pity that the one he faced was the Wood Puppet Strange.

Seeing him attack, the Wood Puppet Strange didn't dodge, just flicked its right hand slightly.

Countless transparent white threads flew out from its hand instantly, spreading and spreading along the left side of its body, and after a while, they wove into a transparent white net.

Keng...

It was just a thin net woven from white silk threads, and the net was so thin that people felt they could pierce it with their hands. It was such a net that blocked Li Hu's knife that was as heavy as ten thousand jin.

It wasn't over after blocking. The net spread directly, dividing into countless thread ends, the tips pointing horizontally, like becoming countless sharp thin needles, stabbing at Li Hu suddenly.

Xiu... Xiu... Xiu... Xiu...

Thousands of thin needles flew out, and it happened to be night, and the air in the valley was warmer than outside. Those white threads were too fast, drawing silver lights in the air, like a rain of pears, almost blocking all space around Li Hu's body seamlessly.

He wanted to dodge, but couldn't dodge!

Li Hu, who dared to take the lead, naturally had something to rely on.

"Chief Luo, don't be stunned, hurry and attack!"

Yang Ning, who had been motionless on the right, shouted at Luo Ming and then rushed toward the Wood Puppet Strange with his sword.

As soon as Yang Ning moved, the Wood Puppet Strange's expression became much more solemn.

Its fingers moved slightly, and a large half of the white threads originally shooting at Li Hu turned their heads and rushed toward Yang Ning on the right.

Chi chi chi...

Those white threads that could defend against the Yan Ling knife in Li Hu's hand were all cut off under Yang Ning's sword edge, bursting out bursts of sparks.

Xia Hong was stunned instantly. After reacting, his eyes stared at the silver long sword in Yang Ning's hand.

"The material of that long sword should belong to the same substance as the Condensing Fire Oil you gave me just now. Chief Xia, let's go up too. With these two, solving the Wood Puppet Strange shouldn't be a big problem!"

Luo Ming noticed Xia Hong's gaze, explained first, and then immediately raised his knife, leaned forward, and surrounded the Wood Puppet Strange with Shang Ping and the three behind him and the two Yang and Li.

Xia Hong reacted this time, why Luo Ming wasn't surprised at all when he first saw Condensing Fire Oil, it turned out to be because of Yang Ning's sword.

But soon, Xia Hong shook his head in his heart.

It might be the same substance, but the restraining effect of the sword in Yang Ning's hand on strange creatures was definitely not as strong as his Condensing Fire Oil.

Yang Ning's silver long sword could cut off those white threads, but the sparks burst out after cutting, Xia Hong clearly felt that it was completely two concepts from the fire ignited after Condensing Fire Oil touched strange creatures.

Xia Hong threw his thoughts aside, gripped the big knife in his hand, and was about to go up.

"Idiot, still not coming to help! If we don't get rid of this Wood Puppet Strange, everyone will die!"

This sudden angry scolding made Xia Hong's brows furrow.

The action he originally planned to go up stopped immediately.

Xia Hong looked up at Li Hu, a trace of ferocity flashed in his eyes.

He didn't think Li Hu couldn't see his action of preparing to go up.

The other party was clearly intentional.

It seems that Li Hu had been holding a grudge about what happened in Red Wood Ridge before, and this was deliberately finding an opportunity to embarrass himself.

Luo Ming naturally heard Li Hu's voice, cursed an idiot in his heart, pulled out a gap, turned his head to look at Xia Hong, and persuaded loudly:

"Chief Xia, now is not the time for a dispute of anger. Joining forces to get rid of the Wood Puppet Strange is the most important thing!"

Xia Hong gripped the big knife in his hand, slightly suppressed the anger in his heart, and rushed over.

It wasn't that he could endure it, mainly Luo Ming's words had no problem.

Getting rid of the Wood Puppet Strange was indeed the most important thing.
