Chapter 533 - 338: The Most Dangerous Opponent
...
Yan Xiaobao felt that his senses were sharper than usual. There was a small hum emanating from within his body, a sound that only Yan Xiaobao and Lan Feng could hear. This hum was new, yet it was very gentle. So gentle that Yan Xiaobao’s every move seemed to be gentle as well.
When he felt the internal hum, his movement speed swiftly increased. Even though he had already moved somewhat before while focusing on being quiet, after the hum started, it was as if his body could no longer make any noise.
Closer and closer, Yan Xiaobao could see Li. It was a young male with strength comparable to an expert at Duke University. Its eyes were red, its fur golden, and its fangs and claws were as sharp as could be. Battling this beast required Yan Xiaobao’s complete focus. Although he had previously fought against Duke Level beasts, this Li before him was undoubtedly the most dangerous opponent he could face alone.
When earlier that day a beast had been successfully captured, Li stood in the shadows, relaxed. The remains of that beast were still beside Li, with blood still adorning its mouth.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Yan Xiaobao’s face as he stepped forward, shooting towards Li. A cloud of dust arose, finally accompanied by the sound of snapping branches. The previously relaxed Li finally opened its eyes, warily watching Yan Xiaobao, who was charging forward with a dagger in hand.
Its agility and speed were surprising, as it immediately stood on its legs and let out a swift shriek, with its terrifying claws slashing through the air where Yan Xiaobao had been moments earlier.
Fortunately, Yan Xiaobao was as swift as a cat, managing to use Velocity Flow to help evade. The claws flickered in the air, releasing waves of energy that sent a chill down Yan Xiaobao’s spine. Even if he defended himself with spiritual energy, it was unlikely he could protect himself from the sharp claws ahead.
