Chapter 237: Savage Winged Tiger (First Update)

The Silent Forest is only a few dozen miles away from Luo City; it is a primitive forest fraught with crises, where a vast number of towering trees grow alongside dense, waist-high weeds, dotted with wildflowers of all colors, full of primitive character.

The environment here is very suitable for the survival of wild Spirit Beasts, and their density is naturally far higher than in the outside world.

Before entering the forest, Li Zhangsheng sprinkled some medicinal powder on himself to repel poisonous insects, then entered the Silent Forest together with Li Tianyu.

Hmm, there were only the two of them, he and Li Tianyu.

On a small hill a few miles away, Li Zhangsheng's three teammates and Instructor Qian Yuanfei were staying there; early in the morning, under Li Zhangsheng's arrangement, they had arrived here without alerting anyone.

Yuan Yongyan yawned and asked curiously, "What did the captain and Tianyu go off to do? Why haven't they returned yet?"

Wang Ding shrugged and said, "I don't know either, but looking at the captain's mysterious demeanor, he must have some important business to handle!"

Chen Yunsheng did not speak; he lay on the grass with a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, looking incredibly comfortable.

This time, they were not wearing the attire of the Yuanling Academy, giving the impression that they were a different group from Li Zhangsheng and Li Tianyu.

At this moment, Instructor Qian Yuanfei, who was accustomed to standing on the treetops, looked into the distance and said, "They are just a few miles away, and there are three people hiding not far from them; judging by their aura, they are the Clan Leader of the Li Family and two Clan Elders."

With Instructor Qian Yuanfei's strength, even though Li Wenbo and the others tried their best to restrain their aura, he could still easily detect them.

Based on what happened yesterday, Instructor Qian Yuanfei had some vague guesses.

A few miles away, Li Tianyu suddenly asked, "Changsheng, do you think they will come?"

"There is a saying: 'nip the threat in the bud.' If you were the one in charge of the Lin Family, would you let such a good opportunity pass?"

Li Zhangsheng's plan was very simple: use the two of them as bait to attract the Lin Family's firepower; his goal was to eliminate the force sent by the Lin Family and weaken their strength.

"No!"

When saying these two words, Li Tianyu did not hesitate at all.

In Luo City, the Li Clan Four Heroes had long been famous, and many were certain that if given time, they would surely become the pride of the Li Clan in the future and would very likely lead the Li Clan to become a Famous Clan.

The Li Clan and the Lin Family were already mortal enemies; after learning the news that Li Zhangsheng and Li Tianyu were here, the Lin Family would definitely not let this opportunity pass, wanting to nip the hidden danger in the bud.

As for whether they would see through Li Zhangsheng's plan, that was not something Li Zhangsheng could know.

However, how would they know without trying? Even if the plan failed, they wouldn't lose anything!

Chirp~

Suddenly, a loud cry rang out. Li Zhangsheng looked up and saw four large, fire-red birds appearing in the distant sky.

On the backs of the large birds, human figures could be vaguely seen.

When Li Zhangsheng saw them, they also discovered the two of them. They immediately steered the large birds, speeding straight toward Li Zhangsheng like arrows released from a bow.

This was a type of large Flying Demon Pet called a Fire Cloud Eagle; its feathers were red, its eyes were bright and piercing like swords, and it exuded a daunting aura.

On the back of each Fire Cloud Eagle sat a person in silver-white attire embroidered with the character "Lin." Their eyes were deep, and the way they looked at Li Zhangsheng and the other was as if they were looking at prey.

They came from the Lin Family, and the leader was an old man with white hair and beard, a hooked nose, and sharp, spirited eyes, giving people a gloomy feeling.

He was the Great Clan Elder of the Lin Family—Lin Yaodong, and also one of the only two Fourth-rank Demon Tamers in the Lin Family.

The other three were also Clan Elders of the Lin Family, all possessing Third Rank standards.

"Quite a few came!" Li Zhangsheng sighed; more people from the Lin Family had come than he had expected, and they were stronger.

However, this was still within the scope of their plan.

"Oh no, it's the Lin Family! Run!" Li Zhangsheng deliberately put on a panicked expression and took Li Tianyu to run into the Silent Forest.

Seeing the behavior of Li Zhangsheng and the other, the four from the Lin Family immediately revealed ferocious smiles and immediately steered the Fire Cloud Eagles to charge over.

"Last time, this old man killed two Clan Elders of the Li Family; this time, I'll kill two of their up-and-coming talents. As long as we do this a few more times, what will the Li Family have to compare with our Lin Family? When that time comes, Luo City will be ours!" Lin Yaodong thought to himself, feeling somewhat smug.

In just a few breaths' time, the four large birds were only a hundred meters away from Li Zhangsheng and the other.

"Eh, that's not right!" Suddenly, Lin Yaodong's expression changed drastically; his senses were the sharpest, and he immediately discovered something was wrong.

"Attack!"

Almost at the same time, Li Wenbo's voice rang out, and several Flying Demon Pets immediately flew toward the four from the Lin Family.

During the ambush, to avoid being detected by the enemy first, Li Wenbo and the two Clan Elders had only released their Flying Demon Pets in advance.

"Oh no!"

At this moment, how could the four from the Lin Family not realize they had fallen into an ambush? They subconsciously wanted to steer the Fire Cloud Eagles beneath them to escape.

However, although their reaction was fast, it was still a beat or two slow. The Fire Cloud Eagles were instantly entangled by several Flying Demon Pets, immediately losing the initiative.

"It's Li Wenbo! There are only three of them; they might not be able to beat us. Let's go down and fight!"

Lin Yaodong's voice rang out. Because they didn't have many Flying Demon Pets, after the Fire Cloud Eagles were entangled, their disadvantage in the air became obvious. This was also a problem for many Demon Tamers; after all, they were not Demon Tamers specializing in Flying Demon Pets, and only on the ground could they exert their full strength.

Lin Yaodong made a prompt decision, immediately dismounting from the Fire Cloud Eagles with the three Lin Family Clan Elders, and they all landed on the ground together.

It was also at this moment that several purple and red hexagrams flickered. Li Wenbo and the others used their first-mover advantage to summon their Demon Pets first and immediately launched a fierce offensive against the four from the Lin Family.

The four from the Lin Family had extremely grave expressions. Under these circumstances, they could only bite the bullet and summon their Demon Pets as quickly as possible.

"Wild Winged Tiger, Wind Barrier!"

"Dadi Manxiong, Earth Protection!"

"Ice Penguin, Ice Wall!"

Before the attacks arrived, several Demon Pets of various shapes were summoned and began to cast defensive skills.

Boom—

Colorful energy erupted, triggering a violent explosion. The nearby ground trembled violently, dust filled the air, and countless cracks spread rapidly in all directions.

A gust of wind blew, and the dust dissipated instantly, revealing the somewhat disheveled four from the Lin Family. Fortunately, they had defended in time and had the advantage in numbers, so they did not suffer any losses.

However, some Demon Pets were already injured. The most severely injured was the Dadi Manxiong standing at the front, covered in wounds of various sizes, having suffered heavy damage.

"Leave Li Wenbo and the others to us. Lin Tao, go kill Li Zhangsheng and the others quickly!"

Lin Yaodong made a choice immediately. Under his command, the four from the Lin Family acted at once. Except for Lin Tao, who went to kill Li Zhangsheng and the other, the other three took the opportunity to entangle Li Wenbo and his two companions.
