Watching me snatch the Golden Core, the Thunder Monkey flew into a rage. Lightning flashed all over its body as everything around us was instantly swallowed by thunder!
Boom!
With a thunderous explosion, I felt a shock from the spot where the tentacle had been. Not only was the Golden Core gone—the tentacle itself had been blasted into ashes. This Sky-Piercing Monkey had a terrible temper. If it couldn't have something, then no one else could have it either.
That lightning storm was truly formidable. Black Crane and I instinctively dodged the attack, while Qiu Hu took the opportunity to break free of my interception and leap back onto the Thunder Monkey's shoulder. The mechanisms on its leg armor clicked back into place as well!
This meant they intended to use a combined approach to fight me and the Immortal Crane.
Fairy Qiu Hu changed the weapon in her hand to a spear-gun, while the Thunder Monkey lowered its stance and assumed an attacking posture with Qiu Hu at the lead. The Immortal Crane still seemed to be in the throes of victory's excitement and immediately charged forward recklessly!
Thud, thud, thud!
After three consecutive pecks, Qiu Hu immediately pulled the reins and took direct control of the Furious-Eyed Thunder Monkey. Once the monkey handed over complete control of its movements to Qiu Hu, it retained all its agility while also gaining extremely rich combat experience. Qiu Hu was highly skilled at controlling mounts, narrowly dodging each peck. Those attacks that scraped past her allowed her to close in on Black Crane, and at the most opportune moment, she launched several consecutive spear-gun strikes, stabbing several holes straight through Black Crane!
This was far fiercer than the Thunder Monkey's own attacks!
The wounded Immortal Crane had not even had time
