Chapter 114 Blood-Red Badger

"Roar--"

An angry roar came from the soul beast's mouth, followed by a blood-red light. Just as this light was about to burst out, a beam of light came from a distance and landed on the soul beast's cheek, causing its entire head to tilt to one side.

"boom--"

The entire earth was shaking violently. The fallen leaves that had accumulated on the ground for who knows how long had long since disappeared, leaving only a hole several meters deep in its place.

Lin Xiao had already rushed out of the bushes. Looking at the person in front of him, it was just as he expected.

There are not many soul masters who possess the Mingyue martial soul, and he is only familiar with one person.

On the other side, Zhang Lexuan looked at the traces left by the soul beast on the ground, then looked at Lin Xiao, slightly dazed.

Last time, when the Gold Devouring Beast attacked, Lin Xiao suddenly appeared just like this...

In the blink of an eye, Lin Xiao had rushed to her side, and seemed to be holding something in his hand, but she couldn't see it clearly.

"Back to God."

When Lin Xiao spoke, Zhang Lexuan reacted instantly. She turned around and glanced at the other people in Shrek Academy. She saw that everyone's attention was attracted by Lin Xiao.

Those six pitch-black soul rings are enough to surprise people no matter where they appear.

However, Lin Xiao didn't pay attention to the other people's gazes. Instead, he looked at Zhang Lexuan, "Where did you stop that 100,000-year-old soul beast last time?"

In fact, when Lin Xiao sensed the breath of the 100,000-year soul beast and Zhang Lexuan, he had probably guessed what had happened here. He was originally planning to just take a look from a distance, but he didn't expect to see Zhang Lexuan preparing to use her body to block the attack of the 100,000-year soul beast.

"That method can only be used once." Zhang Lexuan shook her head and spoke softly.

"then you--"

Lin Xiao opened his mouth when he heard that, but he didn't know what to say next.

How could he ask Zhang Lexuan why she didn't avoid him? But he already had the answer in his heart.

Perhaps because he had lived in the Holy Spirit Church for too long, he had long been accustomed to the scene where everyone only cared about protecting themselves in the face of danger, so he spoke subconsciously, but after speaking, he realized what kind of person was in front of him.

The people she and Lin Xiao often come into contact with are not the same.

With a sigh, Lin Xiao finally understood. Zhang Lexuan and her group had also encountered this 100,000-year-old soul beast, just like now. It was thanks to the self-defense method Moon had left her that Zhang Lexuan was able to kill the 100,000-year-old soul beast and obtain its soul ring and soul bone.

But the last time she met Zhang Lexuan in the Star Dou Great Forest, she had already used up the things that Moon had left for her with the 100,000-year-old Ghost-faced Owl, so she could only use her body to protect the other students behind her.

Turning his head to look to the side, he saw that the hundred thousand year old soul beast was already looking towards him.

It was a not very big soul beast, only about three meters long, which was considered small among the hundred thousand year soul beasts.

The head is similar to that of a dog, with a long muzzle protruding forward, but there are no obvious ears. There are only slight bulges on the sides of the head, and the lips are split, with the fangs inside clearly visible.

The belly of the body is covered with black hair, while the back is much lighter. Two blood-red lines spread from the head, passing through the entire body to the tip of the tail. When the soul power surges, the two blood-red marks seem to be emitting a faint glow.

Its eyes were not big, but when those blood-red eyes looked at Lin Xiao, they still brought him a sense of oppression.

Badger? Lin Xiao was startled.

The Badger was a rare soul beast, as it seemed to lack fear, yet was extremely vindictive. Regardless of the type of soul beast or their level of cultivation, it would challenge them, and even if it was defeated, it would follow them from a distance.

Therefore, in places like the Star Dou Great Forest where soul beasts gather in large numbers, the badger beast will encounter more powerful opponents, and it will be difficult for it to survive given its personality.

Badgers that can cultivate for 100,000 years and mutate are even rarer.

But Lin Xiao no longer had time to dwell on this. Even rabbits could become hundred-thousand-year soul beasts here, so the appearance of a badger wasn't surprising. He was more worried about his own safety.

Before Lin Xiao could recall more records about the badger beast, the badger beast with two blood-red hairs on its body had turned around, stared at him intently, and gradually lowered its body.

"Hurry up and leave." Zhang Lexuan suddenly pushed Lin Xiao, and as she spoke, another silver-white light fell like a sharp blade. "This soul beast is quite vengeful. I don't know what provoked it. We just passed by, and it chased us all the way here. Several students have already..."

Zhang Lexuan paused here and said, "I can't involve you in this. I'm attracting its attention. You better leave here quickly."

Lin Xiao looked at the badger and shook his head, "It's too late. This soul beast has cultivated for 100,000 years, which means it has intelligence similar to that of a human. It has been able to suppress its instinct to hold grudges."

"Then it..." Zhang Lexuan looked at Lin Xiao with some confusion.

Lin Xiao didn't say anything, but he had already guessed some of the truth. The badger changed its target to him not because it held a grudge, but because it felt threatened by him.

After looking at Zhang Lexuan again, Lin Xiao suddenly sighed.

It was Zhang Lexuan who had used her protective skills to help him block the 100,000-year soul beast. Now, he had to help Zhang Lexuan block the attack of the 100,000-year soul beast. This was really...

Lin Xiao didn't think any further. His eyes suddenly changed, and the light of the soul guide propulsion device behind him shone again. He rushed to the side, and the badger's body instantly bounced up from the ground and pounced towards Lin Xiao's back.

All the changes before their eyes happened in just two sentences. The other Shrek students only saw a strange figure appear with a soul ring beyond their common sense, and then led away the 100,000-year soul beast that had been chasing them all the way.

"Senior sister..."

Someone spoke softly, their voice trembling slightly.

"Go find Master Xuan quickly."

"Senior, what about you?"

Zhang Lexuan glanced at the direction Lin Xiao left and said, "I'll go with him to stop that hundred thousand year old soul beast."

After that, she said no more and changed her shape to catch up.

"Senior sister—" other students called out from behind, but Zhang Lexuan's figure had already disappeared into the woods.

On the other side, Lin Xiao's figure was constantly shuttling among the trees. Suddenly, he raised his hand and threw something out. In the blink of an eye, the thing had turned into a turret, and two beams of light fell on the badger beast one after the other.

"Roar--"

Lin Xiao glanced back, his eyes narrowing slightly. Using a Level 5 Soul Guide Cannon to hold back the 100,000-year soul beast was still a bit of a stretch. If he wanted to escape, he could only use the power of his martial soul.
