Chapter 1890: Clash of Ferocious Beasts

Zhao Ming Cheng was so nervous she couldn't stand it, silently cursing Ye Liuyun, she stepped on and broke that crossbow bolt.

Otherwise, using a crossbow bolt now would definitely reach farther than a spear.

Suddenly, Zhao Ming Cheng heard a hissing sound; she looked closely and discovered a giant python had already crawled to the base of the tree.

"Ah!"

She cried out in shock.

This scream also directly woke Ye Liuyun.

Even the giant python under the tree was startled into a daze.

Ye Liuyun turned over and looked down, immediately seeing the giant python.

"Prepare to throw the spear, we must kill it in one strike!"

Ye Liuyun calmly said to Zhao Ming Cheng.

Only then did Zhao Ming Cheng slightly compose herself, aiming the spear at the giant python.

Ye Liuyun also assisted Zhao Ming Cheng, using Heaven and Earth Power to strike the giant python under the tree, temporarily suppressing it so it couldn't move.

Zhao Ming Cheng also seized the opportunity, with one thrust of the spear she pierced the giant python's head, pinning it to the ground.

The giant python's tail immediately coiled around the spear, pulling it down.

But it wouldn't pull its head off the spear; it just desperately clung to the spear.

"Wait until it's completely dead before retrieving the spear, don't rush!"

Ye Liuyun told Zhao Ming Cheng.

Before Zhao Ming Cheng could respond, they heard a bear's roar.

Moreover, the roar was coming toward their direction.

"Oh no, your scream just now attracted other ferocious beasts."

"Move up a bit, I'll go down!"

Ye Liuyun said, and they swapped positions, bringing them closer to the ground.

"Don't make any noise later!"

Ye Liuyun reminded Zhao Ming Cheng.

"Oh!"

Zhao Ming Cheng softly replied, staying up there not even daring to breathe.

"Boom boom" sound came; Ye Liuyun estimated this barbarian bear's size was also not small.

Indeed, accompanied by "huff huff" breathing sounds, a barbarian bear five to six times larger than a martial cultivator leapt out from the thicket.

As soon as it appeared, it saw the underground giant python, roared and charged up, slamming a palm toward the python's head.

With a "roar", its palm strike was huge and heavy, directly smashing the python's head, but its claw was also pierced by the spear.

It then flicked its claw, flinging the spear away.

Then it lunged again, slapping the spear twice, then stepped on it, only then seeming to vent a bit of anger.

Then it lunged at the giant python and began eating it.

Ye Liuyun and Zhao Ming Cheng remained silent, watching quietly.

"Howl!"

Not far away, another wolf howl came.

"Roar!"

The barbarian bear also didn't show weakness, immediately roared, warning the wolf pack not to approach.

However, the wolf pack was numerous, over twenty, and still surrounded them.

Even Zhao Ming Cheng saw in the darkness over twenty pairs of glowing green eyes surrounding them.

Seeing this, the barbarian bear also threw down the python and began roaring at the wolf pack.

At this moment, the alpha wolf also stepped out, glanced at the barbarian bear, then looked up at the people in the tree.

It thought it over, reckoned fighting the bear was worth the risk, and thus let out a low growl, baring its teeth, as if threatening the bear.

The barbarian bear was also stubborn, slamming its paws on the ground, shaking it visibly, obviously unwilling to yield.

"Roar!"

The alpha wolf then let out a low growl, and several wolves attacked the bear from different directions.

The barbarian bear looked clumsy, but its attack speed was not slow; it first waved its claws to block the wolves' encirclement, then suddenly surged out, slamming a wolf to death with one claw, then began charging at the wolf pack, crashing back and forth.

Then it suddenly turned back, swatting with one claw the two wolves behind it that wanted to attack, sending them flying, scaring the other wolves behind, then turned again to charge at the alpha wolf.

The alpha wolf also didn't dare to face it head-on, merely kept retreating, giving other wolves a chance to attack from behind.

The barbarian bear waited for the rear wolves to approach, then suddenly sat down, almost sitting on a wolf.

Then it swung its arm back, knocking another wolf away.

But other wolves took the opportunity to rush forward, tearing at its shoulders and hind legs, and even leapt onto its back to bite.

The barbarian bear then rolled on the spot, pressing the wolves on its back into yelps, then turned and flung the biting wolves aside, also knocking over several wolves.

Any wolf it slapped could not get up again.

The alpha wolf also flared up, snarling at the bear with bared teeth, reorganizing the wolf pack to attack again.

After fighting for a while, the barbarian bear gradually ran out of stamina, its body covered with many bite wounds, slowly retreating, its back against a large tree to reduce rear attacks.

Of the wolves that could still stand, only twelve remained.

But they had seen the bear was tired, and would not let it go now.

The bear tried to flee, but several times they surrounded and drove it back.

The wolf pack circled it, constantly feinting as if to pounce and bite, luring it to swing its paw and exhaust its strength.

The Barbarian Bear's panting grew heavier and heavier; gradually it couldn't even be bothered to swing its paws, occasionally making a feint of raising a paw to scare the wolf pack.

"Roar!"

At that moment, the Alpha Wolf let out another low growl, and the wolf pack surged forward again to bite.

This time, the Barbarian Bear could no longer hold its own; enduring the pain, it also began biting the wolves one by one.

The Barbarian Bear had thick skin and a heavy body; even when a wolf clamped its jaws on its neck, it neither died nor was knocked down—instead, the bear ripped out its intestines with a single claw.

However, that wolf never released its grip until death.

The Barbarian Bear, annoyed that it was in the way, gave a hard yank, tearing the wolf free—and even took a chunk of its own flesh with it.

At that moment, the other two wolves each grabbed a foreleg and a hindleg, finally pulling the Barbarian Bear so hard it staggered.

The other two wolves immediately clamped onto its remaining two legs as well, dragging it sideways with all their might.

Meanwhile, another wolf went for the Barbarian Bear's hindquarters and belly.

"Howl!"

The Barbarian Bear also let out a desperate cry, straining with all its strength to struggle.

That wolf also seized the opportunity, rushing toward the wound on the Barbarian Bear's neck and biting down.

"Now!"

Ye Liuyun struck at the exact moment the Alpha Wolf lunged, leaping forward with his blade to slash at its neck.

He had watched the entire battle between the wolf and the bear, waiting for the Barbarian Bear to exhaust its strength and for the Alpha Wolf to strike.

The torn flesh at the Barbarian Bear's neck revealed a weak spot.

If it were Ye Liuyun, he would also attack here.

The other wolves were merely feinting to distract the Barbarian Bear.

Ye Liuyun's guess was correct—the Wolf King indeed attacked there, so he struck simultaneously and slew the Wolf King.

After fighting the Barbarian Bear for half a day, the wolves had almost forgotten Ye Liuyun existed.

The Wolf King never expected that they still had eight wolves, and that Ye Liuyun would dare to come down and kill it.

Thus, at the very moment it severed the Barbarian Bear's windpipe, its neck was fully exposed to Ye Liuyun's blade; Ye Liuyun chopped it in half with a single stroke, the wolf's head still clamped onto the bear's neck while its body collapsed to the ground.
