The Legend of the Demon Hunter

Xiao Zhu greeted the three people one by one, and then Bai Hao went straight to the point and said, "Miss Ning, classmate Xiao, we arrived at this frozen snowfield earlier than you two, but were blocked by a level three monster in front of us. So I would like to invite you two to join forces to kill this monster and then go to the top of Huanling Mountain together. Are you interested?"

"Even the three of you working together can't subdue it. What kind of level three monster is this?" Ning Zhiwan was very clear about Bai Hao's strength. What's more, there were Ying and another woman beside him. She couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"It's a flying centipede." Bai Hao replied.

"Flying centipede?" Xiao Zhu widened his eyes in confusion and said, "It's a level 4 magical beast!"

Bai Hao looked at Xiao Zhu with admiration and praised him, "Student Xiao is very knowledgeable. I admire you! Ordinary flying centipedes are indeed level 4 monsters, but this flying centipede is still in its infancy and has not yet evolved wings. However, its strength is comparable to that of the top level 3 monsters. It is really difficult to deal with."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhu's expression eased a little. He looked at Ning Zhiwan, who nodded slightly at him and whispered, "Bai Hao has a righteous character. We can cooperate with him."

So Xiao Zhu said to Bai Hao: "Okay, let's join."

Bai Hao was overjoyed when he heard this. He laughed loudly and said, "With the two of you helping us, killing that flying centipede will be a piece of cake."

After the deal was settled, the five of them walked together towards the depths of the frozen snowfield.

But just as they were setting off, they heard a woman's laughter from behind them: "Hehe, I was wondering why we didn't see anyone along the way. It turns out that we, brother and sister, are lagging behind!"

Xiao Zhu turned around and saw Murong brother and sister walking out of the misty forest. Compared to the last time they met, they both looked a little embarrassed, perhaps because they had experienced unknown dangers in the misty forest.

Xiao Zhu had no good feelings towards these two people. He noticed that Ning Zhiwan beside him also had a look of disgust on his face when he saw these two people.

No one responded after Murong Qiu Shui finished speaking, but she didn't feel embarrassed at all. She smiled and said to herself, "It seems that you have already formed a group, so can my brother and I join you?" She stared at Bai Hao, obviously realizing that he was the organizer of this group of people.

No one responded yet, only Bai Hao hesitated for a moment, then laughed and walked over cheerfully, saying, "Of course, having the Murong brothers and sisters join us will really give our team a boost."

Xiao Zhu noticed that Bai Hao's smile was a little unnatural, while Ning Zhiwan and Ying seemed to be indifferent to the two of them. He guessed that even in Yunling Academy, these two people were very unwelcome.

Murong Qiu Shui walked into the crowd with a smile on her face, as if she didn't notice everyone's gazes, while Murong Changtian followed behind her without saying a word. Xiao Zhu felt Murong Changtian's gaze flash across him.

This look made Xiao Zhu feel a chill down his spine.

Bai Hao glanced at the group of seven people. Except for Tingyu, the other six were all members ranked in the top ten of the Bloodline List. Because of the existence of the Murong brothers and sisters, this makeshift organization was not as united as imagined, but it was indeed the strongest team in Nuowan College.

He smiled with satisfaction and said, "I've explored the way before. The flying centipede is on the cliff not far ahead. Let's go!"

After walking for about an hour and a half, they saw a bottomless canyon in front of them. A bridge made of ice spanned the two ends of the canyon.

The bridge is a hundred meters long and less than five meters wide. It is a masterpiece of nature and is extremely spectacular.

Bai Hao pointed at the ice bridge and said, "This bridge is the only way to the top of Huanling Mountain, but the flying centipede is entrenched near the bridge. If you want to cross the bridge, you have to conquer it first."

"Why should you worry so much, squad leader? It's just a level three monster. There's no way it can turn the tables on the seven of us." Murong Qiu Shui smiled indifferently, and then took the lead to walk towards the ice bridge. Murong Changtian followed closely behind her. There was no fear on the faces of both of them.

Seeing the two of them walking towards the bridge first, Bai Hao and the other five followed closely behind. Xiao Zhu and Ning Zhiwan walked at the end of the team. Ning Zhiwan whispered in Xiao Zhu's ear, "Be careful of the Murong brothers and sisters."

Xiao Zhu nodded. Ning Zhiwan had been classmates with the Murong siblings for two years. Xiao Zhu had previously mentioned to her in the Misty Forest that the Murong siblings had killed the three brothers of the Feng family. Based on Ning Zhiwan's understanding of the two of them, it was impossible for these two to let Xiao Zhu go easily.

Only when everyone walked onto the ice bridge did they feel how dangerous this place was. The canyon was bottomless, as if the huge Fantasy Mountain was split in half. The walls of the canyon were covered with thick dark blue ice. The ice bridge ran across the canyon. Although the bridge was more than a hundred meters long, it still looked as dangerous as a single-plank bridge in front of the huge canyon.

Everyone walked carefully on the ice bridge, paying attention to their steps while also being wary of sudden attacks from flying centipedes.

A quarter of an hour later, they had walked half of the distance, but the flying centipede did not appear. Bai Hao had been to this place before. That time, he had just stepped onto the bridge when he encountered the flying centipede and was forced to evacuate.

This time, they were unusually calm along the way. Did the flying centipede leave? Or did it give up the attack when it saw that they were outnumbered?

Just as Bai Hao was thinking this, the ice bridge suddenly shook slightly. Xiao Zhu and the other seven people who were able to walk here were all elites of the academy. They realized that something was wrong in an instant and took defensive postures.

At this moment, a huge centipede suddenly crawled out from the side of the crowd. The centipede was more than ten meters long, and hundreds of legs were trembling densely under its abdomen. This scene was really creepy.

It turns out that this flying centipede was lurking on the back of the ice bridge, using its hundreds of legs to cling to the ice bridge and crawling as if it were walking on flat ground. It took advantage of the time when everyone reached the middle of the bridge to suddenly attack. It can be seen that this flying centipede is very cunning!

The flying centipede's sudden attack scattered everyone, and Ying and Tingyu in the center of the crowd became its primary targets. The flying centipede opened its bloody mouth and bit the two of them. There was dark green mucus hanging from the corners of its mouth, which must have contained a deadly poison.

On this narrow ice bridge, the two's retreat was completely blocked. Seeing that the shadow of the flying centipede had already enveloped the two people, a figure in black suddenly slipped into the shadow of the flying centipede and disappeared.

Having lost its target, the flying centipede focused its attention entirely on Tingyu. Its huge mouth suddenly swallowed Tingyu, and in a hurry, Tingyu was unable to dodge and was bitten by the flying centipede!

"Miss Tingyu!" Xiao Zhu shouted in desperation.
