Chapter 165: Taotie Giant Lizard

Chapter 165: Chapter 165: Taotie Giant Lizard

"What’s wrong? What’s going on?!"

A Patriarch hurried over from the side.

He saw several of his fellow Patriarchs standing there, their faces filled with shock. Their eyes were wide as they stared ahead!

It was as if they had seen something terrifying!

"Say something! Let me through!"

The Patriarch from the back pushed his way in!

He looked at what was in front of them!

The corner of his mouth twitched.

A chill shot up from the soles of his feet!

After a shudder, he slowly uttered, "An Early-Star Stage Exotic Beast, the Iron-headed Long-nosed Elephant!"

Before them!

Was an absolutely enormous elephant!

And on its head was a thick plate of bone!

It was incredibly thick and heavy!

This was the origin of the Iron-headed Long-nosed Elephant’s name!

This cranial plate was extremely hard, and it was also the Iron-headed Long-nosed Elephant’s primary method of attack!

"Hurry, come look at this!"

"This Iron-headed Long-nosed Elephant was shot and killed!"

Hearing this, everyone’s heart skipped a beat!

They quickly rushed over to take a look!

Seeing the bloody hole in the Iron-headed Long-nosed Elephant’s head, their mouths twitched!

This...!

Then, they began to dissect the Iron-headed Long-nosed Elephant!

After pulling out the long arrow, they discovered the cause of death!

Its skull had been completely shattered by the shot!

"Lord Ye!"

"This must be Lord Ye’s handiwork!"

"This Iron-headed Long-nosed Elephant just died. The blood is still warm!"

Everyone nodded in agreement with this analysis.

One Patriarch looked at the scene and said, "This Iron-headed Long-nosed Elephant is too big, and now its most useful part, the skull, has been shattered. There’s not much else of value on its body. Lord Ye killed it but didn’t come back to clean up. It looks like he wants us to handle it!"

"How about this? We’ll take the Crystal Core and give it to Lord Ye when we get back. What do you think?"

"Agreed!"

A Patriarch beside him said.

After all, it wasn’t like they dared to keep something like this for themselves, right?

With that, they continued cleaning up!

A huge Crystal Core soon appeared in their hands!

Then, they continued forward!

A while later!

They looked ahead and were completely numb with shock!

Th-th-this...!

Everyone stared for a long time before someone spoke!

A Patriarch slowly spat out a few words: "Holy crap, another Star Exotic Beast, and it was shot to death too?!"

At the same time, the other Patriarchs in the vicinity also discovered more Exotic Beasts that had been shot and killed!

They then reported their findings to the two King Generals.

"King Generals, the Patriarchs have all found quite a few slain Exotic Beasts, all Diamond Level and above. There’s a fair number of Early-Star Stage Exotic Beasts as well. Every one was a one-hit kill, all taken down by a single arrow!"

"It seems..."

At this point, even the high-ranking officer of the Alliance Guard Army swallowed hard. "It seems all these Exotic Beasts were killed by Lord Ye alone!"

His words fell upon their ears, sending a shock through everyone’s heart!

Even Fu Huiyu and Yu Bingyan sighed!

Damn!

He was really showing off!

As King Level experts, the two of them could also accomplish such a feat.

However, they couldn’t possibly match Ye Yunyi’s efficiency. It was simply terrifying!

’How long has it been, and he’s already hunted so many High-level Beasts?!’

’No wonder Shangguan Yulan was so keen on recruiting this guy.’

’He’s truly terrifying.’

"Alright, tell the Patriarchs to hurry up and clean up. Then, continue deeper. The Exotic Beasts inside might be even stronger!"

Yu Bingyan spoke, and the high-ranking officer nodded and went to relay the orders.

Meanwhile, atop the Qingling Roc!

Ye Yunyi was seated!

The Qingling Roc hadn’t let out a cry in a long time.

Ye Yunyi surveyed the area, lost in thought.

’This area is so vast, and deep within the jungle. It’s impossible for there to be no Exotic Beasts.’

’There can only be one explanation: a powerful Exotic Beast resides in this territory!’

The next moment!

The Qingling Roc’s eyes fixed on a spot below, and it let out a sharp cry!

It seemed to have found something!

Ye Yunyi’s heart jolted. ’Looks like we found it!’

Down below!

A pair of crimson eyes as large as millstones stared up through the leaves, fixed on the Qingling Roc above!

But it made no sound!

The Qingling Roc seemed to have locked onto it!

It circled the area!

It let out several more sharp cries in succession!

The next moment!

ROAR!

A roar echoed from the forest below!

Then!

A colossal figure scrambled up to the treetop, facing the Qingling Roc!

It roared, as if trying to drive the Qingling Roc from its territory!

Ye Yunyi looked down as well!

Whoa!

He knew it! An area this clean couldn’t possibly be without a powerful Exotic Beast!

And here it was!

The Taotie Giant Lizard!

Its head was enormous!

Its body was long and slender!

A long tongue flicked out, dripping with slime!

It was a rather disgusting sight!

Six arms extended from its body, resembling human hands, only far more massive!

Its hands were currently gripping the tree branches, its large, blood-red eyes staring at the Qingling Roc!

As it roared, leaves from the surrounding giant trees rustled down!

Even the ground began to tremble!

"Truly worthy of a Mid-Star Stage Exotic Beast!"

"This is getting interesting!"

With that, Ye Yunyi put away the Sun-Shooting Celestial Bow in his hand!

With a flip of his hand!

A Battle Axe appeared in Ye Yunyi’s grip!

For a moment, Ye Yunyi considered whether or not he should use a Divine-level Exotic Beast Control Pill to subdue this creature.

But in that same instant, Ye Yunyi made his decision.

’Forget it!’

’This thing is just too ugly!’

Then, Ye Yunyi stomped his foot!

The Qingling Roc understood his intent!

It dove straight down!

The Taotie Giant Lizard hadn’t expected the Qingling Roc to make such a move!

It actually dared to challenge it!

’Courting death!’

ROAR!

The Taotie Giant Lizard roared again, putting force into all its arms at once!

The treetop branches were instantly pulverized into dust!

It shot straight up!

Ready to pounce on the Qingling Roc!

But!

The next moment!

The Qingling Roc spread its wings!

And pulled up sharply in mid-air!

However!

From its back!

A dark figure shot toward the Taotie Giant Lizard!

The Taotie Giant Lizard was stunned!

It hadn’t expected the Qingling Roc’s maneuver, nor had it expected to find a human on the Roc’s back!

But it immediately switched its target and went for Ye Yunyi!

Its multiple arms reached for Ye Yunyi simultaneously!

WHOOSH!

The force was so great that it stirred up a violent gust of wind!

Ye Yunyi watched the multiple arms coming at him.

A smile played on his lips!

He looked at the cold glint of the Battle Axe in his hand!

Then!

The very instant the hands closed in!

He swung the Battle Axe!

Then!

Flashes of cold light sliced out from between the hands!

SQUELCH!

SQUELCH!

The sound of tearing flesh rang out abruptly!

The Taotie Giant Lizard’s Scale Armor-covered hands were instantly chopped into more than a dozen pieces!

They fell toward the ground below!
