Chapter 329 A Strange Boy“Meow! Holy meow! That was scary!”

Guifeng held a thirty feet crescent moon blade in one hand and the other hand blocked against the Snake Metamorphosis’ tail in midair. The devil ride of him stood on its hind hoofs and howled, and the river water rumbled.

The Snake Metamorphosis flew into a rage and growled. Then it attacked Guifeng with two thirty-meter-long water pillars.

“Without me, there will be no law. Devil Devours Three Thousand!”

Guifeng shouted, the black Qi that came out of his body armor was denser. A black hole appeared in a flash and dismissed the two water pillars.

The Snake Metamorphosis was so furious that it growled non-stop and swept its tail rapidly. The rocks flew all over. The earth shook as if it was about to collapse. Guifeng shouted, “Master, rise!” He reached out his hand and took Xiao Chen onto the horseback. Zhiluan cried, “Don’t leave me behind!” Then it flew and followed behind.

The devil horse raised its head and let out a neigh. It then turned and ran downstream. Its four hooves seemed to on thunder and lightning. Soon, it was several thousand feet away in a split second.

With one hand holding onto his blade, Guifeng protected Xiao Chen behind with the other hand. Xiao Chen sat on the horseback. He could hear winds howling on both sides of his ears and his face hurt from the strong wind that blew against him. This devil horse was so much faster than his Phoenix’s Wings that it shook off the Snake Metamorphosis in a flash.

In the endless darkness, only the galloping of a horse and the sound of river shaking could be heard. About 30 minutes later, a spot of light suddenly appeared in front of them. However, they came to see a rock wall that blocked their way when they drew closer. A faint light was passing through the wall.

“Those who stand in my way die!”

Guifeng bellowed and swung his blade and a thirty-meter-long black sword ray whooshed out. With a loud bang, the rock wall that was blocking them was smashed into pieces. Then a bright pathway appeared in front of them.

The sudden bright light stung Xiao Chen’s eyes, and he could barely open them. As the devil horse neighed, he felt himself in midair. The devil horse had leaped into the air and brought them out.

In front of them, they could see a valley surrounded by jagged rocks. Although it was still a little spooky, as compared to the ghastly hell river, it was so much better. Xiao Chen looked back and no longer saw the hell river. The Snake Metamorphosis had also stopped its pursue. He got down from the horse and bowed at Guifeng, said, “Thank you for saving us, General.”

Guifeng dismounted with him and bowed back, said, “I dare not ask for credit for my duty! Since the Master is safe, I will take leave.” Then he disappeared into thin air.

Xiao Chen looked at where he disappeared and thought that the aura of the underworld was so heavy that it made Su Xiaomei uneasy. However, Guifeng, who was also a soul body was unafraid. Presumably, the Guifeng was also a brave and invincible general when he was alive.

“Holy meow, what’s this place? We won’t encounter anything again, right?…” Zhiluan looked around alertly and spoke with caution.

Xiao Chen looked up into the sky. Under the strange clouds, he could not tell the time. But he thought it should be 7 a.m. He had no idea where the others were now and said, “Let’s go and see how to get out of here.”

A man and a cat walked for several hours, but they still could not find the entrance of rock valley, and there seemed to be some sort of restrictions here; they were unable to ride the sword or fly.

Twilight gradually enveloped, the strange rocks stood around, looking like evil minions. Under the complete silence, they looked even grimmer and frightening. Zhiluan sat down on the ground and cried, “I’m exhausted. I can’t walk…”

“All right, let’s take a break.”

Xiao Chen moved his dried lips and also found a clean stone to sit down. Since yesterday, he had not had a single drop of water. Not to mention that they had so many encounters along the way, even if he had reached such high cultivation, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

Zhiluan pulled out two bright red immortal fruits from the baggage hanging at the back of its neck, threw one to him, and then chewed the other one up.

Xiao Chen took the immortal fruit and took a bite. A faint scent and sweetness spread in his mouth. If only there was a bowl of plain water as well. Then he thought about the rest who were yet to be found. He hoped that they were safe, after all, this place was full of strangeness. He had somehow guessed the source of the Devil Qi. Now, all he had to do was to find the rest of the people and report back to the Elders of the Immortals’ League.

Zhiluan nibbled the immortal fruit while nagging, “We were good staying in the Immortals’ League. The stupid girl had to drag me out into this muddy water. D*mn it. When we go back, we will see how I will deal with you …”

After they were rested, the man and the cat were on their way again. This time, it lasted for two days and two nights. The stone valley seemed endless. Fortunately, the Devil Qi had all rushed up to the top. By the third morning, both of them were tired of walking. They had also finished all the immortal fruits they had. Zhiluan sat down on the ground and cried, “No, I can’t do this anymore. Get your General of Soul out quickly. His horse runs faster…”
