After finally defeating the Fei Beast, Lu Yuan returned the Crimson Feather to his Beast Taming Space. Then, forcing himself to stay alert, he went to the headless corpse of the Fei Beast and dug out the elixir from its body.

Looking at the crystal-clear elixir in his hand, which faintly shimmered with light, Lu Yuan slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

A miraculous elixir of god-like quality.

But this was the most precious thing in the entire battle.

He had worked so hard all day and ended up in such a sorry state; he couldn't go back empty-handed.

Just as Lu Yuan was immersed in the joy of obtaining the Illusion God-level Demon Beast Elixir, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from behind him.

"Lu Yuan, hand over the elixir!"

Lu Yuan turned around at the sound and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"Elder? What are you doing here?"

That's right!

The visitor was none other than Yao Zheng, the long-lost First Elder of the Lu family.

"Oh!"

Yao Zheng sneered, his gaze towards Lu Yuan filled with a strange complexity, but it was quickly replaced by hatred.

"Why am I here? Of course, it's to avenge my grandson and take your life!"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan chuckled.

"Elder, in martial arts arenas, swords have no eyes, and life and death are determined by fate. Lu Siming was killed instead of killing me. It was purely his own fault for being inferior in skill. How can there be any talk of revenge?"

Yao Zheng was speechless after Lu Yuan's words, and his expression grew even colder.

"You see things very clearly, kid! This world is a dog-eat-dog world, where the strong prey on the weak, and the winner takes all. Since that's the case, I suppose you won't have any complaints if I kill you!"

After saying that.

Yao Zheng raised his hand, and the Beast Taming Overlord Beetle suddenly appeared behind him.

Immediately afterwards.

As Yao Zheng waved his hand forcefully, the wings behind the Tyrant Beetle began to flap rapidly, emitting a buzzing sound.

"That old scoundrel!"

Seeing the Tyrannosaurus Beetle rushing towards him, Lu Yuan, who was prepared, turned around and started to run away almost instantly.

The moment he saw Yao Zheng, he knew that the old man was after his life. The reason he had chatted with him for a few minutes was just to buy time for his escape. Did he really think that the old man would stand there like a fool and let him do whatever he wanted?

However, what surprised him was...

During the time Yao Zheng disappeared, he did something that greatly improved his level. Judging from his aura, he is probably close to reaching the ninth level of the Heavenly Evolution Realm.

As his tamed beast, the Tyrant Beetle has already broken through the ninth level of the Heavenly Evolution Realm, and even shows signs of reaching the tenth level.

On the other hand, look at himself.

Having just used all his strength to kill the Fei Beast, he was now not in his best physical or spiritual condition, and had almost no way to fight against Yao Zheng.

Besides.

Fighting two opponents of god-like level in succession is simply asking the impossible!

So after only two seconds of thought, Lu Yuan made a decision.

run!

Run first, then worry!

Seeing Lu Yuan decisively turn and run away, Yao Zheng was stunned for a moment, then immediately gave an order to the Tyrant Beetle.

"Tyrannosaurus Beetle, chase after them and kill them!"

Buzz—!

The next second.

A huge shadow loomed over him from above. Without hesitation, Lu Yuan immediately channeled the remaining spiritual energy in his body into his Swift Boots, increasing his speed to dodge.

Even so, a bloody wound was still left on the back.

"hiss!"

Lu Yuan gasped in pain.

The injuries sustained during his previous battle with the Flying Beast severely hampered his movements. Fortunately, the Tyrant Beetle's attack was not poisonous; otherwise, it would have been fatal.

Unexpectedly, the Tyrant Beetle's attack was dodged, and Yao Zheng's face became even more gloomy.

What exactly did Lu Yuan experience during his time in Yandu?

He had been hiding in the shadows and had witnessed the entire battle between Lu Yuan and the Fei Beast.

Just over a month ago, Lu Yuan's level was only Xuanzhen, but now he can even kill a monster at the Illusion God level!

This filled him with an unprecedented sense of fear!

If we fail to kill Lu Yuan here today, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Thinking of this, Yao Zheng activated his spiritual power and charged towards Lu Yuan together with the Tyrant Beetle.

See here.

Lu Yuan cursed inwardly.

Old man!

It's one thing to bully the young with the old, but to bully the few with the many?!

That's absolutely outrageous!

Lu Yuan activated his spiritual power to speed up his escape, while simultaneously summoning Chi Yu from his beast-taming space.

"I'm sorry, Akabane, I know you're tired, but the situation is urgent. Help me stop that disgusting beetle!"

Phew——!

"Leave it to me, Master!"

With a cry, the red feather turned and charged quickly toward the Tyrant Beetle, and the two collided instantly.

Amidst bursts of flame, a tremendous roar erupted!

Red Feather spread its fiery wings, and endless scorching flames attacked the Tyrant Beetle.

Upon being touched by the flames, the Tyrant Beetle let out a shrill scream!

"roar--!"

Yao Zheng, who was chasing Lu Yuan, was startled and his expression turned serious.

He had watched the entire battle between Chiyu and Feishou. Although he couldn't understand it, he knew how powerful Chiyu's fire attack was, and immediately ordered the Tyrant Beetle to create distance.

Lu Yuan, however, curled the corners of his mouth and took the opportunity to find a safe place to hide.

Don't underestimate Chi Yu just because he's only at the fifth level of the Heavenly Evolution Realm. With the blessing of the mythical-level talent Pan Huo, the defense of beasts below the Illusion God level is completely inadequate!

Do you really think mythical-level talent is a joke?!

After glancing at the situation on Chi Yu's side and confirming that Chi Yu could handle the situation on her own for the time being, Lu Yuan quickly took out a small wooden box from his beast-taming space.

Once opened, it was filled with healing potions!

"Fortunately, I made a few extra bottles of healing potions because I didn't want to waste the herbs, and now they come in handy!"

Without hesitation.

Lu Yuan immediately opened the bottle cap and poured all the medicine into his mouth.

He drank all five doses of the treatment potion in an instant.

"Ugh...!"

Lu Yuan felt his body temperature rising steadily, and his bones and internal organs, which had been shattered in the battle, were slowly repairing themselves.

However, due to the severity of Lu Yuan's injuries, even though the inferior-grade healing potion was more effective, it was not able to heal all of his injuries immediately.

However, in this state, it's more than enough to deal with the Grand Elder!

Phew——!

at the same time.

Akabane is currently dealing with the Tyrant Beetle and Yao Zheng.

It knew it would be at a disadvantage against two opponents, so it didn't confront them head-on. Instead, it used its ability to fly and its elemental advantage against the Tyrannosaurus Beetle to unleash its skills in mid-air. Whenever the Tyrannosaurus Beetle flew up to attack it, it would quickly retract its attack and fly away.

After a while, they met again.

Surprisingly, Yao Zheng was left breathless after being outmaneuvered.

"You stinky bird! All you do is run around everywhere!"

"However... let's stop here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yao Zheng raised his hand.

"Tyrannosaurus Beetle, unleash a swarm of insects!"
