74. Chapter 74: Revenge Must Not Be Delayed Overnight; Overnight Is Not the Way of a Gentleman

She herself is a spirit beast, and she is extremely dissatisfied with humanity's hunting behavior.

At this moment, seeing Yu Xiaogang's indiscriminate killing, she felt even more nauseated.

Dai Xiyu knew Xiao Wu's thoughts, so he pulled her into his embrace, gently shook his head, and whispered:

"Such indiscriminate killings happen everywhere; it's no longer news. Let it be."

The fortune had already been secured, and Dai Xiyu didn't want to waste more time; only if the team acted quickly could they have more chances to plunder fortune.

Xiao Wu didn't expect Dai Xiyu to guess her thoughts so easily.

Looking at Dai Xiyu's expression, Xiao Wu couldn't help feeling a bit guilty, secretly wondering whether her spirit beast identity would be discovered.

However, seeing that Dai Xiyu showed no further unusual behavior, she put her mind at ease again.

Since the conflict had been resolved, the team continued onward.

Not long after, the group encountered another black python.

The black python hung from a tree, its small eyes aimed at the group's direction, flicking its tongue.

Yu Xiaogang immediately stopped, his expression solemn, and whispered:

"This is a black python with nine purple patterns; its cultivation exceeds nine hundred years, and it is about to evolve into a thousand-year spirit beast!"

Hearing this, everyone was startled.

Spirit beasts over nine hundred years old are beyond what an ordinary Soul Elder can handle.

Moreover, among the Soul Elders in the team, there is only one support member and one who can only hide in the back to command.

Only two people can truly stand at the front.

Yu Xiaogang continued: "It's fine; this black python won't actively attack humans, and its eyesight is very poor—at this distance it can't see us, so we just need to stay away from its territory."

The Master's theory was still convincing, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

However, as soon as Yu Xiaogang finished speaking, the black python suddenly broke free from the tree trunk and charged straight at them!

"What?!"

Yu Xiaogang was dumbfounded; he had confidence in his theory, so logically there shouldn't have been a mistake!

Unfortunately, there was no time to think further; the black python's speed was great, and in the blink of an eye it was ten meters in front of Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang had no choice but to release his martial soul, shouting: "Come out, Luo San Pao!"

"Oink—"

Accompanied by a pig's squeal, a fat pig appeared before Yu Xiaogang.

This pig is Yu Xiaogang's martial soul, mutated from a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, and its name is Luo San Pao.

At the moment his martial soul was released, Yu Xiaogang's first soul ring lit up.

"Farting like thunder, shaking heaven and earth—Luo San Pao!"

This was Yu Xiaogang's first time using his soul skill in front of the students.

Therefore, the students still didn't know what Yu Xiaogang's soul skill meant.

Dai Xiyu had prepared in advance, taking Xiao Wu's hand and stepping back; likewise, three instructors and Tang San, who also knew about Luo San Pao, quickly retreated as well.

The next moment, Luo San Pao turned around and released a tremendous, earth-shaking fart.

The wind formed by the smoke blew on the black python's head, lifting the entire creature.

However, the black python was strong enough to easily stabilize its posture and fall back to the ground.

Soul power surged, and it hissed as it charged again.

Yu Xiaogang never expected that he would provoke such fierce hatred from the black python; Luo San Pao's first soul skill failed to drive back the naturally cautious black python.

However, although it didn't drive the black python away, the nearby students suffered.

One by one, they were choked by Luo San Pao's smoke bursts, doubling over and retching nonstop.

The black python's speed was so great that Yu Xiaogang didn't have time to unleash his second soul skill.

The python's jaws widened, and it lunged at Yu Xiaogang's neck!

Yu Xiaogang's expression turned horrified; for a moment his legs went weak, and he secretly thought, "This is bad."

If nothing unexpected happened, he feared he would die here today.

However, as a disciple, Tang San could not stand by and watch his teacher be killed.

At this moment, Tang San also couldn't conceal his abilities; the sleeve arrow on his wrist flashed out.

Aiming at the black python's vital point, it activated instantly!

Compared to the black python, the sleeve arrow's speed was obviously much greater; in the blink of an eye it pierced several meters of space and struck the black python first.

With this strike, even if the black python fought desperately, it could not reach its target.

Therefore, the black python could only retreat to dodge the sleeve arrow's attack.

However, while retreating, it also secretly gathered strength, waiting for the moment the sleeve arrow brushed past, then it sprang its curved body outward again!

Empowered by soul power, the black python's strength was immense and its speed astonishing; Yu Xiaogang could not dodge it.

Even if the sleeve arrow momentarily repelled the black python, it only allowed Yu Xiaogang to avoid a fatal attack.

At the very moment Yu Xiaogang stepped back, the black python opened its massive jaws and bit toward his ankle.

Crack!

The sound of breaking bones rang out, accompanied by Yu Xiaogang's heart-wrenching howl.

Blood spurted, staining the black python's fangs crimson, making it look even more ferocious.

Tang San's eyes turned red; he held nothing back, activating the first soul skill of his Blue Silver Grass: Blue Silver Entangling!

Countless strands of Blue Silver Grass grew wildly at great speed, entangling the black python.

At the same time, countless sleeve arrows were fired in unison, and various unnamed hidden weapons shot toward multiple vital points of the black python.

Fighting a 900-year soul beast, Tang San alone was obviously not enough, so the three other teachers also joined the battlefield.

The students who had almost been knocked over by Luo Sanpao's fart also came to their senses, one after another releasing their soul rings and using soul skills to join the battle.

Under the siege of over twenty people, the black python was ultimately outnumbered and beaten to the brink of death.

The huge python's body slowly collapsed to the ground, and only then did the crowd slightly relax.

Tang San hurried to check Yu Xiaogang's condition, discovering that Yu Xiaogang was already somewhat unconscious.

This was a sign of excessive blood loss; Tang San immediately examined the wound, and only after seeing it had not turned black did he relax.

"This black python is not poisonous, which is a stroke of luck in misfortune. The teacher has lost too much blood and needs proper rest."

While treating Yu Xiaogang's wound and bandaging it, Tang San said to the three other teachers.

At this moment, Dai Xiyu's class teacher was guarding the dying black python, while the two other teachers stood on either side of Yu Xiaogang and Tang San.

One of the auxiliary soul masters used his martial soul to create a red date, then handed it to Tang San, saying:

"Give this to the master to eat; this is my restorative red date, which can speed up recovery from injury."

Tang San nodded, took the red date, and directly stuffed it into Yu Xiaogang's mouth.

Looking at Yu Xiaogang's wound, Tang San sighed.

Although not fatal, this leg will likely be lame from now on.

Dai Xiyu held Xiao Wu's hand, silently watching from the side without a word.

The reason that 900-year-old black python attacked Yu Xiaogang just now was actually due to Dai Xiyu's skull.

He used cognitive interference to instill hatred for Yu Xiaogang into the black python, which is why the python attacked Yu Xiaogang without hesitation.

As the saying goes, revenge should not be left overnight; to delay it is ungentlemanly.

Dai Xiyu is no saint; since Yu Xiaogang constantly opposes him, he will not show forbearance.

Ever since he killed dozens of Spirit Hall's high priests in one breath, the bloodthirsty aura in Dai Xiyu's heart has been fully aroused.

In this state, not immediately killing Yu Xiaogang is already his greatest mercy. (End of chapter)
