Chapter 175 - Really So Coincidental (2/2)

“All right. Let’s return to the academy. These herbs are enough for now. As for some of the other herbs needed, we can just buy them in town,” announced Ling Chuxi as she happily patted the stuffed backpack.

Ling Yichen also nodded. If they took any more, they would not be able to stuff it into the backpack.

The group of them cleared up their things and got ready to leave. After travelling not far from their makes.h.i.+ft campsite by the hot springs, Ling Chuxi and the rest suddenly felt like something was not quite right.

“Do you guys feel that the surface of the ground seems to be shaking?” asked Ling Chuxi softly.

“It can’t be that coincidental right…” said Xia Zhuoyi with a face that looked like he was about to cry as his expression changed.

“What do you mean?” asked Ling Yichen doubtfully.

Just as Ling Yichen spoke, a cloud of dust could be seen up ahead and loud rumbling sounds could be heard. Then, a wild boar the size of a small hill came thundering over. The strength that exploded from its huge body was terrifying. It was running and knocking over big trees and huge rocks in its path. The boars’ two incisors gleamed with a chilling light and its yellow saliva dripped to the ground with hisses, corroding the surfaces of the parts of the ground it came into contact with. Anyone who saw this sight would feel their hearts shuddering.

“Oh! Oh! Oh! It really is that coincidental! Run!” howled Xia Zhuoyi as his face turned green. He immediately turned on his heel and ran.

“F*ck! Zhuoyi, are you sure that’s a wild boar?!” cried Ling Chuxi when she saw the wild boar the size of a small hill rampaging towards her and could not help but scold Xia Zhuoyi. Was this really a wild boar? What kind of joke was this! Where on earth was there such a strong wild boar? Where on earth was there a wild boar whose saliva was so acidic! Now she finally understood why Xia Zhuoyi ran helter-skelter when he was chased by such a wild boar.

“Isn’t this a wild boar?” asked Xia Zhuoyi very innocently as he blinked.

“It’s a Level 6 monster beast! The Slate Beast!” roared Ling Chuxi in anger. “I really wonder how you managed to survive the last time round!” She had trouble dealing with a Level 5 Wind Owl Beast the last time, and yet this time she was meeting with a Level 6 monster beast!
