Chapter 553: Belated Rescue! (1/2)

Wu Chi’s performance in the basic courses was as bad as Bai Xiaofei, so he knew neither the origin of these giant elephants nor their abilities. But after fighting them for so long, he reached a conclusion: They were helpless against him!

Which simplified the matter. If you don’t plan to move, I will!

Determined, Wu Chi revealed a cold smile and slowly walked towards the two King Rank elephants. Yes, he walked!

Pretending to be all that was a skill everyone was born with. In this case, the purpose was much more than just for the sake of acting cool. It gave him more time to prepare himself and allowed the pressure from his aura to drive his opponent crazy, even if their rank was higher.

“Human, you are seeking death!”

Wu Chi’s action severely hurt the elephants’ self-esteem as King Ranks. At that moment, they just wanted to fight him with their lives. They let out a long shriek, and the elephant herd surrounding Wu Chi joined in with a collective shriek before stampeding towards him.

“Faster!” urged Yue Songbai with a hint of impatience and dissatisfaction at the people behind him. If it weren’t for this group of Grandmasters dragging his feet, they would have already arrived at the place instead of being worried in vain while listening to the echoes of roaring.

The previous ambushes had made both Jiu Yue and Yue Songbai more vigilant than ever. Now they didn’t dare to leave the students and go by themselves, for that way they couldn’t ensure the students’ survival. Moreover, displeased as they were, the combined strength of those Grandmaster Ranks was still considerable.

Meanwhile, the students behind were inwardly complaining. They truly hadn’t expected that so many things would happen in this grand celebration, let alone having to move around nonstop with their lives constantly at risk.

However, despite nursing hearts full of doubts and resistance, none dared to express anything.

If there was no intervention, death would be their only end if they ever broke away from this group. Therefore, when faced with Yue Songbai’s reprimand, they had no choice but to break through their own limit and speed up.

Throwing energy consumption out of their consideration, the speed of the small team rose to the next level as the roaring sounded closer and closer.

“Why is it suddenly so quiet?” Just as they approached their destination, Jiu Yue’s face abruptly changed and his heart was uneasy.

“You stay here! I’ll go check!” Yue Songbai also realized that something was wrong. After leaving those words, he rushed out and quickly disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Shuttling through the dense fog and trees, Yue Songbai was overwhelmed by a strong stench of blood, which made his already dark face sink further. That’s not a positive sign…

When he finally arrived at the scene of battle, Yue Songbai was stunned. It was no wonder there was such a stench, this was a sea of corpses! Littered all over the place were all kinds of corpses, and Yue Songbai even saw someone familiar among them.

Gu Qi, also an honorary elder of the Multihouse Group, only now he was a corpse. Apart from him, Yue Songbai saw the bodies of the students once every few steps, but outnumbering them were that of giant elephants and Assassin Stream puppet masters…
