Chapter Ninety-Six: The Flower Fox

  After this four-winged blood leech fell to the ground, it immediately flapped its wings and flew around Ye Xuan at high speed.

  It had already seen that Ye Xue was extremely difficult to provoke, but its nature made it eager to get rid of Ye Xue and occupy his physical body. As long as it could drill into Ye Xue's skull, it could wear Ye Xue's shell and go around eating people.

  "Now this silkworm baby is really not cute at all..." Su Jiaojiao shivered and muttered.

  At this moment, the four-winged blood leech is not only adorable but also terrifying. Its body suddenly changes size, sometimes as big as a water barrel and sometimes as small as a finger tip. When flying, it has no fixed direction, making it difficult for people to grasp its next position. It's simply born to be a ghostly killer!

  Wherever the Blood Silkworm passes, only to see the big trees falling down with a loud noise, the mountain rocks cracking silently, but it is being cut open by its cicada wings that block its flight!

  Zhou Shiwen and Fang Chen widened their eyes, looking around for the direction of this blood silkworm, shocked to the extreme.

  To be honest, when this Blood Silkworm was first born, no one took it seriously, and Zhou Shiwen even ridiculed the Five Poisons Classics for being useless. Now that they see how ferocious and terrifying this creature is, both of them are filled with regret for not choosing the Five Poisons Classics earlier.

  If one can subdue such a Gu insect, it would be easy to surpass the witchcraft of many years of bitter practice, and even the witch soldiers. When taking action, it is no different from the Yuanqi Yuwu killing people within a hundred steps, and it is even more ruthless!

  Squeak!

  The four-winged blood silkworm monster let out a loud cry and swooped down from behind towards Ye Xuan!

  "Looking for death!"

  Ye Xiong suddenly turned around, raised his large hand and heavily slapped the back of this wasp, with a loud crash, instantly slapping the wasp flying again!

  Hmph! Hmph!

  Its cicada wings unfolded, like a sharp blade the size of a palm leaf, sharp as a knife. When Ye Xu patted it flying, the cicada wing swept past his arm, instantly leaving four deep wounds on Ye Xu's arm, with bones visible!

  Ye Xu hastily retreated, his heart involuntarily filled with horror.

  His body was incredibly strong, and he had never been injured by the spells of the Yuan period witches, even when they clashed head-on. He could catch a witch's sword with his bare hands, but unexpectedly, after just one encounter with the Four-Winged Heavenly Silkworm, he ended up with four wounds!

  "It's no wonder it's ranked 36th among the top-notch Gu parasites!"

  Ye Xuheng's mind stirred, he took out the Ghost Head Knife and strode forward, chasing after the Four-Winged Blood Silkworm and chopping it down with one slash!

  Ding!

  A string of flames flashed by, and this blood silkworm was sent flying again by him. The blade head of the Ghost Head Knife actually broke off and fell to the ground!

  This sword can't even withstand the Cicada Wings of the Four-Winged Blood Silkworm!

  Zhou Shiwen's eyes lit up and he hastily called out: "Shaobao, don't kill it! You don't want this wasp, leave it for me!"

  "Dragon Claw Exploratory Strike!"

  Ye Xue let out a loud roar, and a dragon's aura burst forth from his dantian. He extended a claw to grab the Blood Silkworm, but just as he was about to catch it, the silkworm opened its massive bloody maw and chomped down on Ye Xue's claw with a loud crunching sound, chewing it with an eerie, bone-chilling screech!

  Ye Xuan's eyebrows shot up, the four-winged Blood Silkworm was too astonishing for him, it had actually treated even the witchcraft as a meat snack, this demonic insect's ferocity was beyond his imagination!

  He stepped forward again, his palm covered with dragon scales, transformed into a dragon claw, and grabbed towards the blood silkworm.

  The four-winged blood leech let out a strange cry, opening its large mouth to bite at his hand. Ye Xuan smiled slightly and curled up his four fingers to lightly tap on it. His fingertips tapped on the upper jaw of the four-winged blood leech, making its big mouth unable to close, causing it to tremble violently.

  At the same time, Ye Xu's other hand covered it from above, pinning its neck, and finally caught this wasp.

  He had just let out a sigh of relief when the four-winged blood leech's body suddenly shrunk drastically and slipped out from between his fingers.

  "A newly born hornet has actually made me lose face!"

  Ye Xuhong's anger was stirred, and he decided to no longer hold back. He would annihilate this Gu insect, even if it meant cultivating another one afterwards.

  He was about to make a fatal move when the four-winged blood silkworms suddenly acted as if they had encountered their arch-nemesis, dropping him and hastily flying towards the Divine Wooden Tripod. With a rustling sound, they drilled into the tripod, poking their heads out to look around cautiously.

  Suddenly, a strange cry came from the mountain forest, and a weird beast rushed out of the woods. Its snow-white fur had three yellow stripes on the back of its head, forming a "川" character. It looked like a fox, but also like a marten, only about a foot long. With its shiny black eyes fixed on the four-winged blood silkworms in the divine wooden tripod, it stuck out its thin tongue and licked its mouth.

  This strange beast was not afraid of birth, and ignored Ye Xiang and others, jumping to the edge of the cauldron, stretching out its claws to grab the four-winged blood silkworm in the cauldron, seemingly intending to eat this worm.

  The four-winged blood silkworm was forced to its side, and suddenly rushed out of the cauldron, its body becoming as large as a bucket, squeaking loudly, opening its bloody basin-like mouth, with a fierce momentum, as if it could swallow it into its belly in one bite!

  "Hsss!"

  This strange beast that was neither a fox nor an otter suddenly let out a loud cry, and after taking a deep breath, its body rapidly inflated like a balloon, quickly swelling up to become a massive creature, similar to a white elephant, with its mouth wide open, several times larger than the four-winged blood silkworm.

  The four-winged blood silkworm was startled and quickly withdrew its head, hiding back into the cauldron.

  "Double Dragon Scissors!"

  Ye Xiu let out a loud shout, and two blue dragons burst out of his dantian, pouncing on the strange beast without hesitation. The dragon's head and neck were entwined, its fins slashing down!

  All along, the Twin Dragons' Shears had been the strongest single-target attack in his learned spells, while the Dragon's Dance was a large-scale attack, but if compared to the Twin Dragons' Shears in terms of attacking power, it still fell short.

  This mysterious beast's origins are unknown, even the Four-Winged Blood Silkworm fears it a little, showing that it is far more ferocious than the blood silkworm. Therefore, Ye Xu used his strongest killing move from the start, preparing to cut it into two segments!

  At the same time, Fang Chen's back emerged with a blood demon heart, eight tentacles making a hissing sound, and swooping towards this strange beast. Meanwhile, Zhou Shiwen's head suddenly appeared with an ancient large bow, drawing the bow and shooting, with several fire arrows also shooting towards the strange beast!

  The three of them simultaneously realized that this suddenly appearing strange beast was far more dangerous than the Blood Silkworm, and thus almost simultaneously launched an attack on it!

  That strange beast, neither fox nor otter, was stunned and frightened out of its wits. Its body suddenly shrunk rapidly, thudded to the ground with a loud noise, twitched its limbs a few times, and then lay motionless.

  Shuang Jiao Jian collided with Xue Mo Yuan Hun Da Fa and Huo Yu Yi Jian Shu, instantly causing the yuanqi to scatter in all directions. The massive waves stirred up by the collision spread out like a small tornado!

  The strange beast stealthily opened one eye, saw this scene, shivered with cold, made up its mind to continue pretending to be dead, even its tail was straightened and erected in the air, indicating that it had already died stiffly.

  "Master, you scared this little thing to death!" Su Jiao Jiao said with a scolding tone towards the three of them, showing her fondness for the strange creature that was neither fox nor raccoon dog.

  Ye Xue saw this and coldly said: "Just died, the corpse is still warm, how can it be stiff?"

  As soon as the words fell, the tail of the strange beast loosened and hung softly on the ground.

  Ye Xuhui burst out laughing and said: "The scared beast should also stick its tongue out."

  That strange beast quietly opened its mouth and stuck out a scarlet small tongue, its head tilted to one side.

  "This little guy is so much fun!"

  Su Jiaojiao was extremely fond of this strange beast, walked up to it, and picked it up. The little thing immediately stopped pretending to be dead, jumped onto her shoulder, and bared its teeth at Ye Xuan, Zhou Shiwu, and Fang Chen.

  Behind Ye Xu, a pair of scissors floated out and immediately burrowed into Su Qiaoqiao's hair, only revealing a fluffy big tail, which scared her to tremble with fear.

  "Master, shall we adopt it?"

  Su Qiaoqiao's kindness overflowed, and she pulled out the strange beast, holding it in her arms, laughing: "Look at how hungry it is, all skin and bones. It's really pitiful. I also want to give it a name..."

  She tilted her head for a moment, stroked the little thing's head and smiled: "Why don't we just call you Huā Hú Lián (Flower Fox Sable) then? After all, you look like both a fox and a sable."
