"Cackle, cackle, cackle..."
The soul body could vaguely hear the chilling laughter coming from behind, along with the piercing screech of chains scraping together. Fear of the being behind him flashed through its eyes. Faint flames ignited around the soul body, increasing its speed considerably.
Whoosh!
Xiao Yu flew toward the territories occupied by magical beasts. The disturbed magical beasts instantly flew into a rage, but before they could react, Xiao Yu had already left their territory and entered that of another beast.
He hoped to use the magical beasts of the mountain range to slow the being behind him. As long as that soul body was detained by a Soul Hall expert, there should be no reason for them to trouble a mere Da Dou Shi like him, right?

This wolf king was a fourth-tier beast. It had yet to reach the Dou Wang realm and could not fly. Caught off guard by Xiao Yu, it could only watch helplessly as he flew over its head. But when it sensed another figure attempting to pass overhead, it furiously snapped at that figure.

Its bite missed, and the soul body flew past it once more. Just as it let out an enraged howl, a pitch-black chain pierced straight through its head.

"Cackle, cackle, cackle..."
A figure streaked through the sky at extreme speed. It was Xiao Yu, fleeing with all his might.
"I can't keep this up. Even if I keep running, I still won't
