"Kid, quick, Defensive!"
Yao Chen shouted like mad.
To tell the whole story would take long, but in reality, it was just a matter of one or two seconds.
Yan Hao saw it very clearly.
Just when he thought Han Yue was going to perish because of this, a black shadow suddenly rushed out from the woods behind.
From the actions of the other party, it was obvious that they were rushing to save Han Yue.
Although not acquainted, being able to save Han Yue was enough.
However.
There was a figure that was faster than that person, so fast that Yan Hao only saw a flash of lightning.
It was as if lightning had flashed through the air.
Yan Hao saw another figure of Han Yue appear not far away.
And she was being embraced by Lin Xiu around her waist, leaning against his chest.
When the fist of the Snow Demon Sky Ape passed through the previous Han Yue figure without any hindrance.
Yan Hao reacted, his eyes widened like copper gongs!
"Shadow? Shadow!"
"So fast, it's almost like teleportation!"
"What Dou Technique is Lin Xiu using?"
Several other seniors, as well as Lin Xiu Ya, were deeply shocked by Lin Xiu's speed.
So much so that they only realized it when they heard the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground.
"Oh no! Save them!"
"Who is that guy? Where did he come from again?"
Lin Xiu Ya and Yan Hao rushed towards the direction of the Snow Demon Sky Ape.
The other party clearly intended to rescue Han Yue, so they couldn't just stand by.
On top of the tree.
Lin Xiu didn't look over there.
With Old Yao around, if Xiao Yan were to be hammered to death by a Fifth Rank Magic Beast, it would be truly laughable.
In his arms, Han Yue's cool and elegant face, pale due to excessive fright, looked pitiful and fragile, evoking an instinctive desire to protect.
Supporting Moon Spirit alone, Han Yue had hardly ever revealed such an expression to the outside world.
Lin Xiu had encountered Han Yue several times, and each time, Han Yue's impression leaned more towards that of a cold and dignified senior sister.
His palm moved from her waist to support Han Yue's back, helping her straighten up.
Even through the clothes, he could still feel the smoothness of her skin.
"Senior Sister."
Lin Xiu spoke softly.
At his words, Han Yue's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and with a hint of panic in her eyes, she slowly opened them.
Looking at the faint smile at the corner of Lin Xiu's mouth, she paused, "Junior Brother?"
With a slight pause, Han Yue, regaining a rosy hue on her lips, spoke with an incredulous tone, "You saved me?"
"Yes!"
Lin Xiu nodded slightly. "Senior Sister, you owe me again. Next time, you can't be so reckless."
Listening to the familiar words, Han Yue's mind flashed back to what she had said not long ago, and two blushes rose on her cheeks.
She thought she was going to die at that time.
So she spoke without any restraint.
Now being reminded of it by Lin Xiu, she wished she could find a hole to hide in.
"Senior Sister, can you stand steadily now?"
Lin Xiu asked.
Upon the reminder, Han Yue noticed the intimate posture between her and Lin Xiu, blushing, she quickly stepped out of his embrace.
"Thank you."
Han Yue said softly.
"No need to be polite, Senior Sister. You stay here steadily, I'll go help them."
Waving his hand, Lin Xiu looked towards the battlefield not far away.
Just as he was about to act, he felt an unusual tug on his sleeve. Following the fair fingers, Lin Xiu's gaze eventually settled on Han Yue's face.
"Junior Brother, Lin Xiu Ya and Senior Brother Yan Hao have been practicing for a longer time, and even they can't gain any advantage. Maybe it's time to give up on this Core Quenching Body Milk."
Han Yue shook her head slightly.
"Senior Sister, it's true that my time in the inner courtyard is short, but most of the time I stay in the seventh or eighth floor of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, where the cultivation efficiency is very high."
Lin Xiu gently patted her hand back and pulled out the corner of his clothes. "Moreover, treasures that are brought to me should not be given away to others for nothing. Not only do I, Lin Xiu, disagree, but others certainly wouldn't agree either."
As the words fell.
A flash of lightning sparkled under Lin Xiu's feet, and his figure reappeared dozens of meters away.
"Someone? Others?"
Han Yue looked puzzled, subconsciously looking around, but she didn't seem to see any other figures.
"Brother Lin, Brother Hao, you guys step aside."
Lin Xiu appeared above them, looking down at the ground where several people were standing together with the Snow Demon Sky Ape.
"Lin Xiu, don't come over here, this beast has gone mad," Lin Xiu Ya waved his hand.
"Take Han Yue and go first, we can't handle him," Yan Hao, sweating profusely, gasped for breath.
After being covered in a red light, the Snow Demon Sky Ape's strength had increased significantly compared to before.
Moreover, it seemed to have reduced sensitivity to pain, not dodging or avoiding attacks when they landed on it.
After being ambushed earlier, Lin Xiu Ya was clearly injured, his breath somewhat weakened.
In this situation, they all decided to retreat.
"Just trust me this once!"
Lin Xiu knew he had to show them a bit of his strength to be convincing.
Raising his right hand above his head, a large number of lightning snakes surged out from Lin Xiu's body.
Countless thunder serpents emerged from the void, quickly coalescing into a net of electricity in the blink of an eye.
"Damn, you kid just won't listen to reason!"
Seeing Lin Xiu unleashing an Earth Rank Dou Technique, Yan Hao immediately retreated without any hesitation.
"Be careful."
Lin Xiu Ya hesitated slightly but also withdrew voluntarily, while the others also quickly moved away from the battlefield.
Among them, Xiao Yan was the first to retreat.
Do you still care about him?
Do you know that Lin Xiu is the strongest among you?
Lowering his head, Lin Xiu locked eyes with the Snow Demon Sky Ape's crimson eyes. "Myriad Thunder Invocation!"
His right hand fell.
Instantly, countless thunderbolts poured down like a torrential rain, directly engulfing its figure.
The entire forest was illuminated by a dazzling white light.
The thunder light reflected on the stunned faces of Lin Xiu Ya, Yan Hao, and the others.
"Damn! Junior Brother, when did you reach the pinnacle of Dou Spirit cultivation?"
Yan Hao felt the aura emanating from Lin Xiu, even stronger than his own, and couldn't help but feel overwhelmed.
If he had known he was this powerful, how could he have allowed him to observe the battle beside Han Yue?
"He's only been in the inner courtyard for a year and a half..."
Lin Xiu Ya muttered absentmindedly.
They all knew Lin Xiu's cultivation was insane, as long as his Fire Energy was sufficient, he would stay in the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower indefinitely.
But no one expected his cultivation speed to be this astonishing?
From a 2-Star Dou Grandmaster entering the inner courtyard to reaching the pinnacle of Dou Spirit, how long did it take?
It's just absurd, isn't it?
Xiao Yan saw the change in expression of Lin Xiu Ya and the others, shaking his head inwardly.
These people have such poor expectations for abilities.
If they knew that Senior Brother Lin Xiu had become a Dou King powerhouse half a year ago, their jaws would probably drop straight to the ground.
In fact.
If it weren't for the fact that going from Dou Grandmaster to Dou King in just over a year would be too shocking, Lin Xiu would have already released his Dou King aura.
"It's okay, step by step. Now that I've reached the pinnacle of Dou Spirit, once I get the Core Quenching Body Milk, I can openly demonstrate my Dou King strength."
With this thought in mind, Lin Xiu landed on the ground.
After enduring the baptism of thunder, the Snow Demon Sky Ape's originally white fur had become charred and curly.
The crimson glow in its eyes dimmed slightly, showing signs of awakening.
It supported itself with both hands on the ground, its eyes filled with fear as it gazed at Lin Xiu, making a motion to retreat.
"Trying to run? No way!"
Lin Xiu reached out his hand. "Brother Hao, lend me the hammer."
After all, it's a Fifth Rank Magic Beast, tough and resilient. Without using his Dou King strength, it's really difficult to kill it in a short time.
Upon hearing this, Yan Hao directly tossed it over.
Catching the hammer, Lin Xiu's figure turned into a blur, appearing in front of the Snow Demon Sky Ape.
Boom!
A muffled sound.
As the onlookers raised their jaws, they watched the Snow Demon Sky Ape being knocked flying more than ten meters off the ground, and they all involuntarily swallowed saliva.
"Yan Hao, if Lin Xiu asks to borrow a weapon from you for the inner courtyard competition, you must never lend it!"
Lin Xiu Ya said very seriously.
This guy's strength is too terrifying. With the hammer, he could take lives without even using Dou Qi.
"No need for your reminder, I know."
Yan Hao nodded slowly.
He looked at the Snow Demon Sky Ape, now falling to the ground and entering a sleep like a newborn, unable to connect it with the violent giant ape from before.
