My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome-Chapter 174 - 173 Ice Crystal Bird • Winter Feathers
Chapter 174: Chapter 173 Ice Crystal Bird • Winter Feathers
“Ah! You… Ah!!”
A figure struggled on the ground, engulfed in roaring flames, unable to hold back a painful scream that sounded somewhat familiar.
Hiss hiss hiss!
Amid the tumbling flames, a faint ice-blue light appeared; he was gathering ice elements to resist, trying to extinguish the flames on his body.
Large amounts of white steam rose from his body, yet the flames showed no signs of weakening.
Shao Zifeng bent down to pick up a lighter that had fallen to the ground. The flame reflected on his face, casting an uncertain shadow.
Click!
The metal cap opened, and sparks from the flint fell onto the kerosene-soaked wick, igniting a small flame.
He caressed the pattern on it with his slender fingers, the sunken gold letter L engraved on it; he had a guess about who this person was.
However, he had no intention of withdrawing the flames yet because he felt that unless he completely drained the man’s ice elements, he would still have the energy to cause trouble.
Only by draining him completely, weakening him, would his own safety be guaranteed…
Well…
Actually, he just really hated being sneak-attacked, and since there was no one around to worry about appearances, it was fine to settle scores on the spot.
The fires on the barren field crackled, showing signs of spreading further, as the temperature in the air kept rising. The orange-red flames illuminated the surroundings.
Shao Zifeng occasionally closed his eyes to sense his surroundings, even though the man was already subdued, he still did not relax. However, he sensed nothing else around besides this man.
Could it be that he hadn’t released his pet beast, or was his pet beast like the willow ptarmigan, able to shield its presence from detection?
The figure’s movements grew fewer, and the rising steam slowly thinned. The degree of punishment was probably enough; burning any further would lead to death.
Thinking this, Shao Zifeng waved his hand. The flames on the man flickered with the movements of his pupils for a moment, then dispersed into the air, darkening the surroundings.
Just as Shao Zifeng withdrew the flames and was about to step forward to check who the man was, he suddenly saw something falling in front of him. Then he felt a slight chill on his high nose bridge.
Shao Zifeng scratched his nose with his finger, which felt slightly wet.
Had it started snowing?
Alert, Shao Zifeng looked up into the pitch-black night sky, then his expression suddenly changed, his gripping fingers turning slightly pale.
The moon hanging in the sky had vanished at some unknown point, and the snowflakes floated in the night sky, following a specific pattern, spiraling down.
Ferocity.
An angry bird call came from the distance, growing louder, approaching at an unbelievable speed.
The temperature around plummeted, and the vicious wind mixed with snow ravaged the area. The flames on the dry grass struggled, being blown close to the ground, emitting a faint glow.
Damn.
New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on ƒгeewebnovёl.com.
Shao Zifeng cursed under his breath and hurriedly ran towards the man lying on the ground, shouting as he ran, “Tell it to stop…”
When he reached the man, seeing that his eyes were tightly closed and he was unconscious, Shao Zifeng’s mouth twitched.
This was just awkward.
Ferocity.
The snow became heavier, and the howling wind swept through, the visibility reduced to a white blur, even the sky seemed enveloped by a curtain of snow, with no other colors visible.
Shao Zifeng could sense a chilling murderous intent hidden within the snow around him. The reason it hadn’t struck yet was because of the man he held hostage in his arms…
“Hey, can you hear me talking? I said I was just joking with your master, do you believe me?” Shao Zifeng felt that continuing this way wouldn’t work, trying to negotiate with the mutant creature. His voice was somewhat distorted by the wild wind.
Ferocity!
“Who jokes like that?!”
Hearing Shao Zifeng’s words, the mutant creature seemed to grow even more enraged, its strong emotional fluctuation so evident he didn’t even need to activate “Empathy” to understand it.
“Hey, listen, it was your master who sneak-attacked me first,” Shao Zifeng said, immediately feeling upset hearing this. Had it not been for the ring on his finger, his empathetic abilities, the strong fire elements shared with him by Qiuqiu, and the concealed weapon he carried, he might have been injured himself.
Hmm…
The more Shao Zifeng thought, the guiltier he felt.
So he was that powerful, was he?
It seemed that he had indeed been a bit too harsh.
When Shao Zifeng said this, there was a momentary stillness in the snow, and he distinctly sensed another wave of guilt.
Certainly, the mutant creature knew about its master striking first.
After feeling that emotion, a bit of reassurance crept into Shao Zifeng’s heart, as long as it was receptive, there was still room for maneuver.
To show his sincerity, Shao Zifeng also let go of the person he had been shielding in front of him, “Look, your master is still alive.”
The mutant creature, initially feeling guilty inside the snow curtain, suddenly erupted with boundless rage upon seeing its master.
So dehydrated that it almost turned into a dried corpse, and you tell me it’s a joke?
Fury! Fury!
“I! Want! You! Dead!”
Boom!
A torrent of air burst forth from within the snow curtain, wrapping countless snow and ice around him. Shao Zifeng, struck heavily, flew backward like a rag doll, rolling several times in the thick snow before sliding back some distance, stirring up a cloud of snow.
“Cough cough!”
Shao Zifeng held his chest, coughing violently; fortunately, the snow cushioned his fall, otherwise the hit would have been too much to bear.
Fury!
A bird call sounded, and the snow initially drifting in one direction suddenly became chaotic. The blizzard, mingled with snowflakes, turned into thin, tangible lines shooting out chaotically in all directions.
Shao Zifeng quickly shielded his eyes with his arms, his down jacket making the sound of tearing fabric, splitting open in several places.
As the blizzard subsided, Shao Zifeng slowly moved his arms away, revealing a hand hidden behind his back opening a small space rift, albeit cautiously without making much noise.
As soon as the space rift opened slightly, Qiuqiu hurriedly poked its delicate little nose through, sneezing adorably twice due to the cold air stimulation, while the cold wind also poured into the pet space.
Suddenly, Shao Zifeng’s movements halted. Not far from him, amidst the swirling snow, a large white bird appeared faintly visible, its blue eyes coldly fixed on him.
The moment Shao Zifeng saw the Ice Crystal Bird, he immediately closed the pet space with the hand that was summoning Qiuqiu, knowing well that Qiuqiu was no match for the Ice Crystal Bird.
The Ice Crystal Bird, about one and eight meters tall, was covered in snow-white feathers emitting a weak blue glow, with several slender blue feathers on its head swaying in the blizzard, its other parts concealed within the snow, unclear to see.
Shao Zifeng held his breath, the swirling blue lights in the corner of his eyes slowly unfolding.
