Chapter 110: Huo Wu and Feng Xiaotian
"What a terrifying lion's roar—almost as powerful as my White Tiger Roaring Sky Break," Davis muttered softly, then quickly looked in the direction the sound came from.
He saw a fiery red mad lion charging toward them. Its body was immensely muscular, especially around its back, where its muscles swelled to an astonishing degree. As it ran, it kicked up a whirlwind of dust, and its thick mane fluttered in the wind, emanating a fierce and dominant aura.
However, sharp claw marks were visible on its back, from which scarlet blood flowed and dripped onto the ground—it was clearly seriously injured. But who or what had injured it?
"Those claw marks look like they were made by a wolf… but what kind of wolf can injure a Fiery Mad Lion like this? Could it have been a ten-thousand-year spirit beast?" Davis speculated.
This Fiery Mad Lion had a cultivation of about 4,500 years—definitely under 5,000 years. If it had encountered a ten-thousand-year beast, it was no surprise that it had been forced to flee.
"Roar!"
The Fiery Mad Lion howled again. Upon seeing the three people in front of it, its eyes gleamed fiercely. Then, a blazing sea of fire erupted from its bloodied mouth, rolling toward Davis and the others like a tidal wave.
The temperature of the flames exceeded 5,000 degrees. Davis, thanks to his ice and fire body refinement, withstood the heat, but even he felt a powerful wave of burning pressure.
Li Hu immediately released his soul power to shield against the flames. Anna, however, being a plant-type spirit master, was especially vulnerable to fire. She could only hide behind Davis, her clothes already soaked with sweat, and cried out:
"Brother Weiss, I'm scared~"
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid," Davis said with a smile. He had just told her they'd hunt a ten-thousand-year beast, but now she was terrified by a four-thousand-year lion. But Anna was still just a child—he couldn't expect too much.
"Uncle Li, protect Anna. I'll handle this beast."
"Yes, Your Highness! But please be careful—this Fiery Lion is not easy to deal with!" Li Hu said as he shielded Anna from the heat wave.
Meanwhile, Davis stepped forward alone, facing the sea of fire like a wall.
"You're already injured and still dare to act so arrogantly? In Tang San's words—you're already finding a way to die. First soul skill!"
In an instant, a diamond barrier enveloped Davis, parting the sea of fire down the middle and completely nullifying the flame's impact. His soul power was of the ultimate gold attribute—as the saying goes, true gold fears no fire.
Seeing its flames neutralized, the lion spat out five massive fireballs, launching them at Davis like cannonballs.
"It's over, isn't it?" Davis narrowed his eyes coldly. If the tiger doesn't roar, do you think it's a kitten? His second soul ring suddenly lit up.
"Second soul skill: White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Six golden beams of light burst forth like arrows, glowing brightly in the air. Five of them intercepted and destroyed the lion's fireballs. The sixth beam struck the Fiery Lion directly in the face!
The impact sent the lion staggering backward dozens of steps, gouging long scratches into the ground. Its skull cracked from the blast, worsening its injuries, and blood began to trickle from its mouth.
Taking a step forward, Davis raised his hand and readied his claw.
"Dark Gold Terror Claw!"
"Wait a moment!"
Just as Davis was about to strike the final blow, a voice shouted from the distance, followed by a man's voice descending from the sky:
"Fellow spirit master, please show mercy!"
"Hmm?" Davis frowned and looked up to see a silver-haired young man dressed in cyan descending toward him, wind wings fluttering behind his back.
The boy, about 1.8 meters tall, wore a cyan uniform and silver hair tied neatly. Upon seeing him, Davis immediately recognized him.
Isn't that Feng Xiaotian, one of the two famous 'lickers' of Douluo Continent?
His cyan uniform, silver hair, flying ability—all pointed to him: Feng Xiaotian of the Divine Wind Academy. The other infamous licker was Yan from Spirit Hall's Golden Generation—but unlike Yan, Feng Xiaotian at least won the heart of his goddess.
So, if Feng Xiaotian was here, then the girl's voice earlier...
Davis turned his gaze forward and saw two flaming figures rushing over.
One was a blond-haired young man who appeared to be about the same age as Davis. He was handsome but still a little green—clearly someone just starting his journey.
Wearing a fiery red outfit, his muscular abs were clearly visible. With such a physique, it was easy to imagine many girls swooning over him.
The moment Davis saw him, he recognized him as Huo Wushuang of Blazing Academy—Huo Wu's older brother.
Beside him was a red-haired girl with short hair and stunning looks.
Her eyebrows were finely curved, and her watery eyes sparkled with determination. Her nose was as straight and elegant as if sculpted. Her small, pink lips added to her charm.
She had a petite, delicate face and fair skin like smooth jade—exuding a natural allure.
Dressed in a short fiery red skirt, her alluring figure was enough to make anyone blush. No wonder Feng Xiaotian fell for her.
She was, of course—Huo Wu.
Looking at the injured Fiery Lion under Davis' feet, Huo Wu's expression turned anxious. She had spent over a month tracking this spirit beast—if someone else killed it now, she would be heartbroken.
In a pleading tone, she said, "Fellow spirit master, we've been searching for this spirit beast for more than a month. Please—could you let us have it?"
Davis looked down at the Fiery Lion and thought: Blazing Academy, Divine Wind Academy, Tianshui Academy—all worth winning over. No need to make enemies over a spirit beast. If I can become friends with them and bring them under my banner, even better.
He activated his ice-fire evil eyes and examined the three.
Feng Xiaotian: Martial spirit – Swift Wind Two-Headed Wolf, Level 40, agility-type battle spirit master
Huo Wushuang: Martial spirit – Unicorn Fire Tyrannosaurus, Level 41, power-type battle spirit master
Huo Wu: Martial spirit – Flame Shadow, Level 40, control-type quasi-soul sect
→ This lion was clearly prepared for Huo Wu.
Feng Xiaotian met Davis' gaze and was stunned—he felt as if Davis could see through his very soul. Standing before him felt like standing completely naked—everything exposed.
Meanwhile, Huo Wu looked at Davis anxiously, her beautiful eyes filled with hope.
After a few seconds, Davis gave a slight nod.
"Since Miss Huo Wu needs this spirit beast so much, I'll return it to you." Saying that, Davis kicked the Fiery Lion back toward her feet.
