Chapter 871: The Return of the Leopard King
At that point, Yun Chujiu was already immune to gossip. On the contrary, the Yun siblings, Feng Ming, and the others who stood up for her had almost fought with those people.
“d.a.m.n it! What a bunch of ingrates! Junior Sister Little Jiu, don’t take it to heart. That leopard will definitely come back.” Feng Ming comforted her.
Yun Chujiu smiled indifferently. “Senior brother Feng Ming, when have I ever cared about these things?! I know the Leopard King will come back. It’s just that I don’t know whether it will bring good or bad news with it.”
When those people heard Yun Chujiu’s words, they all curled their lips. This Yun Chujiu was so blindly confident in herself. Let’s see how you react to a slap in the face when the time comes. It has already been three days. If that Leopard King was coming back, it would have done so long ago.
Right at that moment, they heard someone exclaim, “Why is the ground shaking? Could it be that the array formation has begun to destroy the Elixir Valley?”
Everyone also noticed that the ground shook and immediately panicked. Every one of them was like headless flies.
Yun Chujiu frowned. It was still too soon. The array formation should not self-destruct yet. What on earth was going on? She looked into the distance and saw a cloud of dust. She could faintly hear the roars of beasts from that direction. She was delighted. It should be the Leopard King should have returned, but why was the ground shaking?
After a moment, Yun Chujiu finally discovered the reason. Thousands of high-level demonic beasts were sprinting toward them while following the Leopard King’s lead.
When everyone saw that the valley was not going to self-destruct yet, they calmed down a little. However, so many demonic beasts were approaching. If this horde of beasts attacked them, they would not stand a chance. Did Yun Chujiu just doom them all?!
A moment later, the Beast Horde stopped in front of everyone.
Yun Chujiu made her way to the front to greet the Leopard King, “Little Bun, I didn’t expect you to be so good at doing things! What do you mean by bringing so many beasts here? Have you found the place where the spiritual energy fluctuates abnormally?”
The Leopard King nodded proudly and called out a few times. It was doing nothing more than just showing off at that point.
“Little Bun, lead the way. I will keep my promise. After we break through the barrier, I will bring all of you out with us.” Yun Chujiu saw the Leopard King nod its head and was delighted. As long as they found the barrier, their freedom would be guaranteed.
The Leopard King nodded its head and let out a few roars at the Beast Horde. Then, it made a few gestures with its claws. Dozens of beast kings of different species also responded with roars of their own.
They did not share the same language, so it was not easy to communicate with them. Fortunately, they could still figure out what the Leopard King was trying to tell them. The Beast Horde turned around and led the way toward their destination.
Yun Chujiu followed the horde closely from behind. The Yun siblings, Feng Ming, and the people from the Spirit Radiance Sect followed her without any hesitation. The rest of the people hesitated for a moment. Was this a good idea?
However, there were no other ideas at the moment. It was the only choice in front of them! Therefore, after they hesitated for a moment, those people also followed.
Everyone followed the Beast Horde for a full day. Some people were still suspicious. Could it be that these demonic beasts were leading them into a trap?! Why had they not arrived yet even after such a long time?
Although they were suspicious, they did not dare to leave the group. They might still have a chance of survival if they followed Yun Chujiu. Otherwise, they could only wait for death.
Fortunately, the next morning, the Beast Horde stopped moving.
The Leopard King ran to a small mound and then pushed out one of its paws. Everyone saw that the paw was blocked, everyone immediately cheered, “A barrier! It must be a barrier! We are saved! We are going to get out!”
