Chapter 761 (2/2)

The bunch of wild beasts dashed towards the tree beneath them, lifted their heads, and roared at them with their sharp fangs.

Looking at them wandering beneath, Xiao Luo was sure that they couldn’t climb the tree and couldn’t help but feel relieved. Based on his current powers, it would be quite a challenge for him to take down these wild beasts. But if he could focus on healing up for one more night, then he wouldn’t have to fear them anymore.

“Thankfully, they can’t climb the trees. Otherwise, we’re dead meat.” Duck Emperor patted its chest and heaved a sigh of relief.

“Don’t sleep tonight. You’re responsible for keeping them in check!” Xiao Luo exhorted, then crossed his legs and entered his healing state again.

The tree below them was filled with leaves and branches and was particularly sturdy. Sitting cross-legged on top of it was like sitting on a solid ground, and there was still a lot of extra space as well.

Duck Emperor could no longer fall asleep. How could it? This piece of forest became extremely eerie at night, and there were wild beasts as well. No matter how brave it was, it couldn’t fall asleep in this sort of environment. Looking at the tree beneath them, and the wolf-like beasts wandering around, as if staying there waiting for them to go down, it was so angry that it broke a small branch and threw it at them. “You f*cking b*tches! How dare you even think of eating Grandpa Duck Emperor! Once this goddamn brat recovers some of his powers, your time will be up,” Duck Emperor boasted. “When that happens, Grandpa Duck Emperor is going to peel off all of your skin, shove a tree branch into all of your buttholes, pierce it through your body and out from your mouths, then roast all of you over a campfire and eat you all up.”

Hearing its shouting, the wild beasts below let out a series of angry roaring.

“What are you shouting for? Hurry up and get lost for Grandpa Duck Emperor!” On top of the huge tree, Duck Emperor was confident. It was not the least bit afraid of the beasts and spoke with much arrogance.

As soon as it was done talking, a wolf head emerged from a nearby tree. Duck Emperor was startled. No one knew when it managed to climb all the way up, but it launched a sudden attack and pounced at them with its huge mouth opened wide.

Not just one. There were a whole bunch of them on the trees. They had formed a circle and surrounded Xiao Luo and Duck Emperor. Leaping off at the same moment, they dove towards them ferociously.

“Goddamn brat, hurry up and dodge!” Duck Emperor panicked.

Duck Emperor was scared to death. It flew towards a branch above them while screaming to dodge the attack.

Xiao Luo’s reaction speed was really fast as well. He quickly got out of the healing state, slammed his legs on the branch beneath like a spring, and jumped up to a higher spot.

A few of the wolf-like wild beasts missed their targets, but they had no intention to stop. They violently headed upwards. They moved around the tree like it was flat ground. The claws on their legs were very strong and allowed them to grab onto the tree firmly.

Xiao Luo was a little shocked. He could never have imagined that this bunch of unknown beasts would be this crafty. They tried to show the enemies their weakness, had them think that they were not able to climb trees, then secretly made their move and attack while they had let their guard down.

While he was stunned, a beast leaped towards them and bit onto the tree branch beneath his feet.

Crack.

The sturdy tree branch broke in an instant. Xiao Luo had yet to make his jump, and the tree branch was already broken, causing him to lose his support. He lost his balance and was about to fall but, thankfully, managed to grab onto a protruded area of the tree, hanging at the side.

But without waiting for him to catch his breath, two beasts leaped off from above and headed straight to him.
