C458 (1/2)
Zhou Hui quickly nodded and said, ”Lord Chief, if I encounter any danger, I will definitely go through fire and water. I won't say a word and I definitely won't retreat.”
”That's good!” Xue Jun grunted coldly, then he didn't continue speaking.
The two of them followed this path for close to an hour before they finally arrived at a cliff. There was a path that led to the fifth platform.
However, the path could only hold one person, and the person could only walk up the cliff. Not only that, Xue Jun reminded, ”Although this path leads to the fifth platform, a flock of Snow Peak Birds will interfere.”
”Then the Snow Peak Bird will be driven away by you!” Xue Jun seemed to be expressionless as he spoke.
Zhou Hui remembered all of this in his heart. This was not a joke. Although Zhou Hui was not afraid of heights, looking down from the cliff, it was at least one or two thousand meters high.
Even if he was in the Nascent Realm and fell from such a high place, he would probably be smashed into a pile of mud.
Of course, compared to using inner strength to break open the stone blocking the pass, the risk of walking through this cliff was much lower.
Without saying anything, Zhou Hui took the lead and stepped onto the small path with his back against the cliff.
Xue Jun's face suddenly revealed a hint of hesitation. He seemed to be afraid, but in the end, he clenched his teeth and followed Zhou Hui's footsteps.
This couldn't help but make Zhou Hui think better of Xue Jun. From the looks of it, he was not only arrogant, but he was also not someone who feared death for his family.
This allowed Zhou Hui to come up with a plan, but just as they were about to reach the small path, Zhou Hui quickly became vigilant. After all, in a while, there would be a group of Snow Peak Birds in danger.
Therefore, he had to focus all of his attention!
He gathered his energy and carefully climbed up. Suddenly, he heard a burst of sound that could cut through the air at extreme speed.
Zhou Hui's eyes stared blankly, but then he quickly raised his hand that was holding onto the cliff and slashed at the air. There was a cracking sound as a bird-like creature was sent flying and fell off the cliff.
What made Zhou Hui surprised was that he had already used 30% of his inner strength, but he had only knocked him out. He hadn't split him into two, so much so that his hands felt numb.
One was not bad, but a group of them might be a little troublesome.
Just as he was thinking this, more and more sounds came from the sky. It couldn't help but make Zhou Hui furrow his brows. Very quickly, another Snow Peak Bird dove down at him.
Fortunately, although these Snow Peak Bird were extremely hard and fast, but no matter what, Zhou Hui had the powerful inner strength of the Nascent Realm.
Very quickly, a dozen or so Snow Peak Birds were shot down the cliff by Zhou Hui Tong.
However, as time passed, Zhou Hui's face became more and more unsettled, because there seemed to be something off with these Snow Peak Birds. Before, they were all one after the other, giving Zhou Hui a lot of room to control them.
If a swarm of bees attacked him from multiple directions, perhaps it would make it difficult for him to do anything.
Furthermore, his feet were extremely narrow, making it difficult for him to use them.
Xue Jun said from the side, ”There's still the last wave of the Snow Peak Bird's harassment. We must endure it!”
Hearing the words of the Snow Army, Zhou Hui was calm and collected. He took in a deep breath, holding it in as he waited for the so-called final wave of attack.
Suddenly, a few rays of light shot straight towards Zhou Hui's face.
