C15 (1/2)

However, Ning Caifu didn't have enough time to stop. She still hadn't understood why Chang Shan didn't want to let her go, but she saw a faint sneer in the Earth Bear's eyes. Then, a large clump of earth suddenly appeared in front of her.

Even if she didn't die, she would still be injured by such a dense mass of earth. However, no one seemed to be able to block that attack for her. Did she really die under the hands of this Rank 3 Earth Bear just like that? Ning Caifu's eyes were filled with despair.

At this moment, the ones closest to her were only Li Chen and Bai Bin. However, the strength of these two people couldn't even compare to her, so who could she rely on?

”Cousin!” Bai Bin let out a heart-wrenching cry.

However, just at that moment, a black figure pounced towards Ning Caifu from the side.

Ning Caifu only felt her waist being hugged at that moment, and the Earth Bear secret scripture's attack was immediately repelled by her. The person holding her trembled, and she seemed to hear a muffled groan.

The Earth Bear's attacks all landed on the ground not far away from them. Ning Caifu turned her head to see that the twin Cast Divine Martial Sect disciples had already started their battle with the Earth Bear. The Earth Bear was momentarily unable to deal with them and hastily checked on Li Chen's injuries.

That's right, it was Li Chen who had saved Ning Caifu in that split-second.

His strength may not be as strong as Ning Caifu, but he was very agile and was positioned right beside her. He used his gravity to dodge Ning Caifu's attack, but his speed was not fast enough. Li Chen could feel a burning pain on his back.

”Are you okay?” Ning Ce Fu hastily asked.

Li Chen shook his head and stood up to watch the fight between the twin brothers and the Earth Bear.

The elder twin called out 'Ah Shi'. The second brother is called 'Ah Li'. Both of them are at the Second Stage of the Cast Divine Martial Sect. They would be able to deal with a Third Stage Earth Bear easily, but the more he looked at them, the more he felt that something was amiss.

Ah Shi had been working together with Ah Li for many years, and his strength was slightly stronger than the average Cast Divine Martial Sect. However, this Earth Bear was able to handle the attacks of the two Martial Ancestor Realm experts with ease.

At this moment, Bai Bin and Chang Shan walked over. Bai Bin held Ning Caifu's hand, ”Cousin, are you hurt?” Seeing that Ning Caifu was unharmed, he turned to Chang Shan and scolded, ”How did you do it!?” As soon as I came up, I found a Rank 3 Earth Bear for my cousin.

Chang Shan's face was sullen, but he was feeling wronged. How could he have known that this young miss would rush forward to charge in without giving him a second thought! Ordinary people would first exhaust the spiritual energy within the magical beast before defeating it in one go. Who knew that Eldest Miss was a fool? She dared to fight a magical beast with just the power of a Pulse Breaking Mysterious Scholar!

Ning Caifu said lightly, ”Chang Shan is not to be blamed for this. I was too careless.”

”AHH!”

At this time, a cry of surprise came from the other side. It was unknown if it was Ah Shi or Ah Li who was sent flying by the Earth Bear's palm. The other Martial Ancestor Realm expert's attack was also blocked by the Earth Bear.

The elemental energy of this Earth Bear was of the earth attribute and it had a strong defensive strength. At that time, it was accidentally injured by Ning Caifu, but now, it was unable to even deal with two Martial Ancestor Realm experts when it came to using its elemental energy.

Seeing that the two Martial Ancestors had been defeated, the surrounding followers all took out their weapons. However, the Earth Bear looked at the group with disdain and actually ran towards Li Chen.

A bad premonition flashed in Bai Bin's heart. Just as he was about to dodge, he saw his beloved cousin already drawing her sword. Thus, he had no choice but to draw his sword and face it head on.

Among the three of them, Li Chen was the weakest, but his agility allowed him to match up to Bai Bin from afar. However, after a while, everyone could see that the Earth Bear's main attack had landed on Li Chen's body.

Although the Earth Bear's power was great, Li Chen's body was abnormally nimble. He had dodged a few of the Earth Bear's attacks.

Fortunately, Ah Shi and Ah Li joined the battle once more. Li Chen immediately felt a lot more at ease.

”What are you hesitating for!” Everyone attack together! We must kill this magical beast! ” Ning Caifu took advantage of her free time to shout out loudly, while the rest of her followers surrounded the Earth Bear.

After being together for so many years, their teamwork was no less than that of ordinary mercenaries. Once someone was injured, someone else would immediately replace them. The Earth Bear had been forced to not even have the time to use elemental essence.

Ah Shi Ali found a chance. The instant their eyes met, the light on his hand vibrated. While there were too many people around and the Earthen Bear was unable to split itself into two, he smacked the Earth Bear on the back.

This should be a sneak attack. Normally, the two experts wouldn't do such a thing, but right now, they were in danger. If they didn't kill this Earthen Bear as soon as possible, the two of them were truly afraid of getting into trouble.

The two Martial Ancestors slammed their palms down on Li Chen's head, causing the Earth Bear to immediately howl in pain. The roar shook the sky, and for a moment, Li Chen actually felt that his ears were ringing.

Looking at the others, who were not much better off than him, their faces turned pale from the roar.

There were only two Martial Ancestors who had the protection of spiritual energy, so they appeared to be fine.

While he was in a daze, an earthen yellow light suddenly appeared on the body of the Earth Bear.

”Good heavens! It was not an Earth Bear! It's a Class 4 Magical Beast, the Earthen Bear! ” Chang Shan immediately exclaimed.
