Chapter 398: What a Dummy!

As the monster failed, it shrieked painfully. Then, it spiraled to the ground from the tree.
The atmosphere was now filled with a bloody smell, and Gu Xijiu knew that other ferocious beasts would rush here at any moment! Therefore, she was no longer safe!
Fortunately, she had already identified her next destination, and she immediately teleported. Less than 30 seconds after she left, the surroundings were full of odd sounds, and more than 10 ferocious beasts were coming out of the bushes from all direction. It was a feast.
That injured pangolin was eaten entirely. Even its numerous claws had been swallowed down by other beasts. Of course, those ferocious beasts were also biting and tearing at each other while trying to feast on the food. Some were even of the same species. They fought viciously and frantically that the trees nearby were trembling.
