"Huh?" The answer that had nothing to do with his question left Dong Santong stunned. He had no idea what Li Xiaoya was asking. Then he noticed Li Xiaoya staring at him, froze for a moment, and suddenly understood. "Uh! There!" he hurriedly said, pointing in a direction with a seemingly casual air.
"There?" Seeing how casually he pointed, Li Xiaoya paused. "You didn't point the wrong way, did you?"
"Of course not! That's the direction!" Dong Santong said with absolute confidence.
"All right! Pick up the pace!" Having lost their last wager, Li Xiaoya wasted no more words. Golden light suddenly erupted all over him, and the Storm Gold-Light Wings on his back beat repeatedly as he shot off in the direction Dong Santong had indicated.
"Uh! Senior Brother! Are we just ignoring the demon beasts behind us?" Dong Santong hurried after him, speaking as he flew.
"We can't kill them anyway! Let's go!"
"Hehe! No wager this time, Senior Brother? Maybe I pointed the wrong way!"
"If you did, I'll toss you into the sea to feed the fish!"
Although those water-element demon beasts were far faster in the water than ordinary demon beasts, how could they possibly catch Li Xiaoya and Dong Santong at their speed?
Still, more and more demon beasts joined the chase along the way. Sometimes, quite a few high-tier demon beasts appeared ahead to block them, forcing the two to make a move or two to clear a path. Fortunately, the tenth-tier demon beasts they had been wary of never came after them, allowing them both to breathe a sigh of relief.
Soon!
After being chased like this for two days!
"Haha! Senior Brother! Look! Those demon beasts have stopped chasing us!" Dong Santong suddenly called out with a hearty laugh.
"They've stopped?"
