Chapter 61: Giant Peak

“Li Ying, let’s check another route,” Su Ping said to Li Ying as he ran.

Li Ying was taken aback. He didn’t expect Su Ping to give him orders. “You want to take another route?”

“Why don’t we return home now?” Su Ping asked.

“But…”

He was met with such a strange and dangerous situation the moment he came out. Li Ying was indeed a little scared, but he wasn’t expecting Su Ping to continue helping him in the search for the Blood Fox.

Although he was a settler and had the guts for the job, a settler was still a human. He only had one life. Anyone would be afraid of death!

Fan Ganglie took a deep look at Su Ping’s back. He said to Li Ying, “Listen to Brother Su. Things can get even more complicated. We can’t afford to delay any further!”

Li Ying had opened his mouth to continue; still, he paused and could only say in the end, “I understand.”

He immediately sensed his pet and checked the other routes.

At this moment, Lin Mokong had caught up with a few people. His face was extremely gloomy. He had sacrificed his high-level pet as soon as he arrived; it was as if he had cut off a piece of his own flesh and blood!

Upon seeing these figures, a venomous look appeared in Lin Mokong’s eyes, but he quickly kept it in check.

“Huh?” Su Ping turned his head and glanced behind him. He frowned a little when he saw Lin Mokong’s gloomy eyes. His eyes returned to the front, but there was a flash of coldness in them.

“Found it,” Li Ying suddenly said.

“The few Astral Pets on the east path have already moved elsewhere. We won’t b.u.mp into them if we make a run for it now,” Li Ying said quickly.

“Let’s go,” Su Ping ordered immediately.

Fan Ganglie could only swallow what he was about to say since Su Ping had already beat him to it.

Fan Yujing and Li Ying glanced at Fan Ganglie out of habit, to seek confirmation. Seeing that he didn’t object, they quickly followed behind Su Ping.

“Brother Lin, we will think of a way to make it up to you when we return,” Fan Ganglie said to Lin Mokong, who was behind him.

Lin Mokong’s expression turned even colder. “It’s nothing. I was careless.”

“It wasn’t your fault. After all, it’s a new s.p.a.ce rift with too many unknown Astral Pets. It’s best for us to be careful,” Fan Ganglie whispered.

Killing intent flashed in Lin Mokong’s eyes, but he didn’t say anything.

Guided by Li Ying’s scouting, the few of them moved forward, getting closer and closer to the depths of the area where the blood fox had gone missing.

“There are Astral Pet demon beasts on the first few routes. Only one route looks viable,” Li Ying reported.

Hearing that it was a similar situation, the expressions of the few people changed slightly.

Su Ping immediately said, “Let’s take the route with Astral Pet demon beasts first. We can get closer to observe.”

Fan Ganglie hesitated for a moment. As the saying went, once bitten twice shy. He was a little worried, but after thinking about it, their luck couldn’t be so bad; it was unlikely that they would encounter another strange incident so soon.

“According to what Brother Su said, let’s get closer to observe first,” said Fan Ganglie.

“All right.”

Fan Yujing and Li Ying had no objections.

Lin Mokong kept quiet ever since he lost the Codson Python. He was too quiet.

Soon, they arrived at a valley under Li Ying’s lead.
