The Devouring Python gave the two of them a deep look, then quickly turned its head and fled into the depths of the forest.
After Zhao Yuwei used her spiritual power to bind the bird demon, she intended to give chase.
Xiao Feng reached out and grabbed Zhao Yuwei's arm.
Zhao Yuwei turned around and saw Xiao Feng's pale face, his tightly clenched teeth, and the blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
"Are you injured?" Zhao Yuwei saw that Xiao Feng was fighting the Devouring Python very smoothly and thought that Xiao Feng was not injured.
Seeing Xiao Feng in this state, Zhao Yuwei finally understood why Xiao Feng hadn't continued to pursue the Devouring Python.
"His demonic power is poisonous; I need time to neutralize it."
Xiao Feng is indeed immune to all poisons.
But that also depends on the amount of toxins that enter his body.
The Devouring Python's venom is something even other powerful demons fear.
Xiao Feng absorbed one-tenth of the Devouring Python's demonic power in one go.
The toxins contained within are enough to poison a great demon to death.
If it weren't for Xiao Feng's special constitution, which made him immune to all poisons, he would have died from the Devouring Python's venom long ago, let alone survived until now.
"I will protect you and heal your wounds!"
Zhao Yuwei immediately sat down cross-legged and quickly channeled her spiritual energy into Xiao Feng's body.
However, Xiao Feng's condition was too bad at this time, as the demonic power he had just absorbed was rampaging wildly within his body.
The toxins mixed in were clump together, making it impossible for Xiao Feng to find a way to neutralize them.
Xiao Feng now needs an absolutely quiet and safe place to recuperate.
Finally, Xiao Feng spat out a mouthful of blood and almost fainted.
The great demon, a hundred miles away, was caught in a dilemma after the Devouring Python fled.
Are they going to hunt down the Devouring Python, or do they want to deal with these two humans first?
After some thought, the great demons decided to spare the Devouring Python.
Don't pursue a cornered enemy; who knows if the Devouring Python still has other tricks up its sleeve?
Moreover, when the Devouring Python cried out for help, none of the great demons paid it any heed.
The Devouring Python is cold-blooded and vengeful, and probably already considers them its enemies. Why should they invite trouble upon themselves?
These powerful demons originally intended to go up and make a deal with Xiao Feng.
After all, Xiao Feng was the one who forced the Devouring Python to use its innate skill to escape.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng was also injured and even vomited blood.
Now, the great demons' ideas changed again; they wanted to go and pick up the scraps.
The demon race loves to eat people, especially those with high cultivation levels, as this can enhance their own strength.
Of all the powerful demons, only the Nine-Headed Lion was truly worried about Xiao Feng.
When he realized the intentions of his companion, the nine-headed lion sneered and warned, "I advise you not to underestimate this human."
"Even the Devouring Python was forced to this extent by him, do you all think that he is easier to deal with than the Devouring Python right now?"
Having sparred with Xiao Feng, the Nine-Headed Lion naturally knew Xiao Feng's strength.
In retrospect, it seems that Xiao Feng didn't use his full strength when he sparred with him; otherwise, he would never have been Xiao Feng's match.
It was precisely because of his mutual respect for Xiao Feng, and the lingering affection he felt for the other great demons, that the Nine-Headed Lion spoke up to offer a reminder.
"Nine-Headed Lion, you wouldn't be thinking of keeping all the treasures on the human race for yourself, would you?" The Roc demon probed the Nine-Headed Lion.
"Then go ahead. If you insist on courting death, I won't stop you."
The nine-headed lion waved its hand, clearing a path for the roc demon to cause trouble for Xiao Feng.
The nine-headed lion's actions, ironically, made the great roc demon hesitate.
The nine-tailed fox demon spoke up, "Nine-headed fox, that's not what he meant. Since you say so, we naturally won't attack him."
The nine-headed lion glanced at the nine-tailed fox, nodded, and said nothing more.
The other powerful demons, seeing the cold smile on the nine-headed lion's lips, hesitated for a long time, but ultimately chose to be cautious.
"Humans have always been cunning, and we haven't concealed our aura. Even the Devouring Python can sense our presence, so how could he not?"
"But he still chose to treat his wounds in front of us at this time, maybe he was using himself as bait to lure us in."
"I advise you all to be cautious and not fall into their trap!" one of the naturally cautious demons said.
The nine-headed lion glanced at the other party and gave a cold laugh that was ambiguous.
The nine-headed lion's reaction only strengthened the great demons' belief in Xiao Feng.
Two powerful demons have already found excuses to leave this place.
Although the other powerful demons dared not attack Xiao Feng, they were still unwilling to leave, presumably because they coveted the treasures left behind by the Devouring Python.
The nine-headed lion, too lazy to bother with these demons who were asking for trouble, appeared directly in front of Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei.
Xiao Feng was still healing with his eyes closed.
Sensing the approach of the nine-headed lion, Xiao Feng barely opened his eyes, looked at the lion, gave a weak smile, and then completely fainted.
The nine-headed lion remained expressionless, but was inwardly somewhat shocked by Xiao Feng's trust in him.
The nine-headed lion could tell that before it appeared, Xiao Feng had indeed been on guard against the powerful demons nearby and had not made him completely unconscious!
But the Nine-Headed Lion never expected that Xiao Feng would trust him so much.
Xiao Feng's smile before he fell into a coma solidified the Nine-Headed Lion's resolve that he would never allow other powerful demons to harm Xiao Feng.
Zhao Yuwei looked at the nine-headed lion, her eyes full of trust, and asked softly, "Lion King, do you have a way to heal his wounds?"
The nine-headed lion already had feelings for Zhao Yuwei, and now seeing Zhao Yuwei looking at him with teary eyes, he was even more excited.
He strode over to Xiao Feng's side, reached out and took Xiao Feng's pulse.
He thought that Xiao Feng had forcibly started a battle with the Devouring Python, which was why he was injured by the Devouring Python.
But when he placed his hand on Xiao Feng's pulse, he discovered that Xiao Feng had fainted because of a disorder in the power within his body.
Xiao Feng's condition only requires a few days of rest to fully recover, and there is nothing seriously wrong with him.
"Don't worry, Miss Zhao, Brother Xiao is fine. It's not safe here. Shall I take you back to my territory first?" the nine-headed lion asked Zhao Yuwei.
If Zhao Yuwei and the others were unwilling, the Nine-Headed Lion planned to stay here to protect Xiao Feng until he recovered, at which point he would leave.
Zhao Yuwei didn't know what the Nine-Headed Lion was thinking, but she knew it was dangerous to stay there.
Moreover, Zhao Yuwei's current strength is insufficient to protect Xiao Feng.
Since Xiao Feng needs to rest and recuperate, returning to the Nine-Headed Lion's territory might be safer for him.
"Then I'll leave it to Lion King," Zhao Yuwei said gently, her eyes full of gratitude.
The nine-headed lion nodded in agreement.
