As soon as the wretched man finished speaking, the hyenas burst into shrill laughter.

Nanxing had long been accustomed to the sarcasm from other male orcs, but he would not allow anyone to offend Zhou Yiyi.

And the wretched man had violated his biggest taboo.

Nanxing roared like a tiger and rushed in front of the wretched man, standing up tall with his hind legs on the ground and his front legs off the ground.

When he was standing on all fours, he was at least 1.7 meters tall. Now standing on two legs, he was nearly 3 meters tall.

The wretched man was frightened by the tall figure and immediately revealed his true form.

But it's too late.

Nanxing slashed down with his tiger claws, smashing the wretched man's head into pieces, which fell to the ground with a thud.

Seeing this, the other hyenas rushed forward.

Over the past year, Nanxing's strength and speed have become more than a hundred times stronger than before thanks to Zhou Yi's continuous feeding of various delicious foods and drinks.

The hyena tribe, who thought they had victory for sure, were beaten to pieces by Nanxing in just a few minutes.

Nanxing originally wanted to chase them and wipe out their tribe directly.

Zhou Yiyi reminded him in time, "Forget it, hurry up. If you go too late, the grass will wither and die, and it will not be worth it."

So the two of them didn't stay for long and quickly left the grassland.

Next to the grassland is the endless desert.

Nanxing has never been to the desert in her life.

The sky is full of yellow sand and the sun is scorching.

After just a few steps, he was already sweating profusely, sticking out his tongue and breathing heavily.

Zhou Yiyi asked the system to provide cooling pills in time.

He took one himself and gave one to Nanxing. One cooling pill can take effect for ten hours.

During these ten hours, Zhou Yiyi asked Nanxing to run faster.

In the desert, many beastmen were surprised to see a white tiger carrying a beautiful female beastman and running wildly in the desert.

That agile figure was something they had never seen before.

Two lizards were lying in the desert and chatting.

"That guy must be a fool! He's running like that in such a scorching sun. He'll be dead of exhaustion sooner or later."

"Tsk~ Tired to death? I think he died of thirst.

Just wait and see, it won’t be long before the vultures have another feast.”

There were indeed two vultures following Nanxing's head at this time.

They couldn't stand the heat either, but they hadn't eaten for many days. Now when they saw a stupid tiger running wildly in the desert, they thought that the guy was not far from death.

They hoped that Nanxing would die quickly so that they could have a good meal.

Unexpectedly, Nanxing ran for ten hours in the desert, and not only did his speed not decrease, but he even ran to an oasis and stopped.

That female beastman was even more amazing. She prepared a big meal in just a short time.

Even vultures, smelling the wonderful fragrance from afar, feel that eating carrion is tasteless.

Zhou Yiyi and Nanxing didn't know about these things. After eating and drinking their fill, they lay in the oasis, enjoying the comfort of the sunset.

The effect of the cooling pills had worn off, and even in the evening, Zhou Yiyi still felt very hot.

Nanxing was already taking a bath in the small lake in the middle of the oasis.

When the temperature gradually dropped, Nanxing lay in the sand, drowsy.

On this day, despite the help of the cooling pills, ten hours of non-stop high-speed running was too much for even the extremely strong orcs.

He was indeed very tired now, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

As the temperature got lower and lower, Zhou Yiyi also snuggled into Nanxing's arms, relying on his thick fur to keep warm.

During the day, she was carried by Nanxing and did not feel tired.

At night, we consciously raise our vigilance and keep watch, paying attention to the surrounding situation.

The first half of the night was calm and even the starry sky was spotless.

Zhou Yiyi could still look at the night sky and chat with the system.

In the second half of the night, the temperature dropped sharply. Zhou Yiyi had no choice but to transform into a beast and snuggle in Nanxing's arms to keep warm.

Just when I was dozing off, I suddenly heard the subtle rolling sound of sand around me, and this rolling sound was not normal.

Zhou Yiyi opened his tiger eyes vigilantly and looked around.

About 50 meters away from them, a group of sand snakes were swimming and crawling towards them.

Sand snakes are not big, about one meter long and about the thickness of an adult's thumb.

But there were so many of them, hundreds of them, that Zhou Yiyi was horrified.

She was really afraid of snakes, and her fear of snakes had long since penetrated deep into her soul.

He slapped Nanxing's tiger head mercilessly, "Nanxing, wake up, we are surrounded by sand snakes."

Although Nanxing was sleeping soundly, he was still woken up by a slap.

He growled, venting his anger, and when he saw the situation clearly, he jumped up and stared at the sand snake that was already very close.

Zhou Yiyi transformed into an orc again and jumped onto Nan Xing's back, "Nan Xing, I'm scared."

She lay tightly on Nanxing's back, pulling his fur with both hands, and expressing her fear in a trembling voice.

This was the first time Nanxing heard Zhou Yiyi say he was afraid, and he couldn't help but become more alert.

The sand snakes came from all directions, and there happened to be a huge rock on the east side. They went around the rock and continued to crawl towards them.

Nanxing seized the opportunity, jumped up and landed on the boulder.

The sand snakes didn't expect Nanxing's jumping ability to be so strong that he could jump more than ten meters away.

The snake hurriedly turned its head and rushed towards the boulder.

Nanxing took advantage of this gap and jumped again, breaking out of the encirclement of the sand snakes.

Without waiting for the sand snakes to react, he started running quickly.

He stopped only when he could no longer sense the sand snakes following him.

He said with concern: "It's okay, Yi Yi, I have already gotten rid of the sand snake.

Don't be afraid, I'm here and they won't hurt you."

Zhou Yiyi was still trembling, nestling in Nanxing's arms without moving.

Nan Xing tried to comfort her softly, but it didn't work.

I had no choice but to put Zhou Yi on my back and slowly move forward in the direction Zhou Yi had pointed out.

As a result, we didn't walk far before we discovered that the weather was abnormal.

In Nanjing, the wind in the air was clearly felt to be gradually increasing.

He shook his shoulders and called out to Zhou Yiyi, "Yiyi, do you feel it? The wind is going to pick up, and it's going to be strong. What should we do?"

Nanxing had no experience of surviving in the desert and relied on Zhou Yiyi along the way, so when he encountered problems, the first thing he thought of was to seek Zhou Yiyi's advice.

After this period of relaxation, Zhou Yiyi's mood calmed down a lot, and she looked up at the sky.

I don’t know when the stars disappeared from the sky, and the bright moon disappeared without a trace.

And you can clearly feel the wind picking up.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and Monday Yi predicted that they might have encountered a tornado.

She stood up and looked around. Although she couldn't see the direction the tornado was coming from, the wind was blowing in the direction they were going.

Going that way now would be tantamount to death. She saw low hills a few hundred meters to the right.

He patted Nanxing's head and pointed in that direction, "Nanxing, let's go and hide over there first."
