Chapter 37: Chance Encounter

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The person who spoke was none other than Zhao Xiang, who had an experience with Fang Xuan at the Blazing Mountain.

“Why are you here?”

Zhao Xiang was the first to speak. Fang Xuan only said that he was doing a mission.

He did not have a good impression of this person. He could only say that she was cold and indifferent. Even if she had some ambiguous actions with him in the Blazing Mountain, the grudge between the two of them would not change.

To Fang Xuan, an arrogant person would never achieve anything great.

Seeing Fang Xuan like this, Zhao Xiang didn’t know what to say.

The atmosphere at the scene seemed to become awkward. The wind still blew past the corners of the three people’s clothes.

The woman on the right spoke. At this moment, Fang Xuan began to size her up.

“My name is Chen Xiang. I’m a friend of Zhao Xiang. I’m a swordsman. We’re both second-year students of the Cloud Academy. I was the one who brought her to the Wind Domain this time to kill the Wind Rhinoceros Condor. I need its wings to make a sword. Seeing that you don’t have a map, are you lost?”

It wasn’t that this person had sharp eyes, but when Fang Xuan was approaching them. He stumbled a little just now, it was really easy for her to think of this aspect.

The female swordsman who had spoken was wrapped up tightly, but one could still see her explosive figure. Moreover, this person was only a little shorter than Fang Xuan. At a glance, she looked valiant and heroic.

Fang Xuan did not pretend. He directly laid out the fact that he really could not find his way. Moreover, the boss of his trip was also the Wind Rhinoceros Condor.

“Then why don’t you team up with us? We can take care of each other. We have a map and can save more time. Otherwise, I’m afraid it will be very difficult for you to even find the way back.”

Fang Xuan nodded silently, agreeing to Chen Xiang’s suggestion.

This woman was quite easy to talk to. How did she make such a friend? She was really careless in making friends.

Along the way, Fang Xuan did not speak. Chen Xiang held the map in her hand and led the way methodically. Zhao Xiang kept whispering to the latter, probably introducing Fang Xuan.

The latter ignored the small actions between the two of them. As long as they could complete the mission normally, he did not care so much.

Suddenly, Chen Xiang handed the map to Zhao Xiang and stood at the same level as him.

He knew that Chen Xiang must have something to say to him.

“This desert is located in the southwest corner of the empire. After passing through this place, there is a Lousha City. It can be said to be the overlord of this place. The wife of the City Lord of Lousha City has a strange illness. She needs the devouring golden ants in the desert to eat the strange illness.”

“I heard from Zhao Xiang that your beast is an insect. Are you interested?”

Fang Xuan’s interest was piqued. If it was a city lord-level figure, it shouldn’t be difficult for him to take out the materials to nourish the Snownet Divine Worm. Moreover, he had come here to collect the insect skin.

Moreover… devouring was his old profession. It was impossible for it to be inferior to devouring golden ants. Could it really be such a coincidence?

“We can give it a try first. The City Lord has already said that as long as there’s any effect, we can obtain a huge bounty. Even if there’s no effect, there’s no loss. There’s no sandstorm there. It’s much more comfortable than the desert.”

“Then why don’t I cross the desert to take a look first? I’ll leave this Wind Rhinoceros Condor for you guys. I’ll complete the mission after it respawns.”

Before Chen Xiang could say anything, she was interrupted by Zhao Xiang.

“No! Didn’t we agree? What if we lose our lives to the Wind Rhinoceros Condor without you? Moreover, this desert is very vast. Without a map, it’s very easy for you to get lost.”

She turned her head and red energy surrounded her body to resist the sandstorm.

Fang Xuan thought to himself that this young lady had changed a lot. Now, she actually knew how to care about others. Not bad, not bad. She was worth teaching.

Chen Xiang chuckled.

“What’s wrong, Lady Zhao? Have you learned how to feel sorry for others? Are you mesmerized by Brother Fang Xuan?”

The latter clearly heard the ridicule in Chen Xiang’s words. She blushed and turned around to continue leading the way.

Fang Xuan was indifferent to the teasing between the two of them. Instead, he nodded at Chen Xiang. “Miss Zhao’s words are not unreasonable. Since I’ve already promised the two of them, I can’t change my mind at will. I was rude just now. Let’s kill the Wind Rhinoceros Condor first before I go to Lousha City to investigate.”

Chen Xiang nodded and did not say anything else.

As the wind in the air grew stronger, everyone understood that their final goal was not far away.

“Strange, the map says it’s here.”

Zhao Xiang, who was at the front, scratched her head in confusion.

Fang Xuan cast a sidelong glance at it. The map was not completely made of kraft paper. There was a flickering spot of light on it. That was probably the location of the person holding the map.

At this moment, there was a bright red cross above the light spot. This was probably the Boss mark that marked this place.

At this moment, the sandstorm around the three of them had almost completely obscured their vision. Just activating the energy to protect their bodies had become a luxury. Zhao Xiang’s anxiety was understandable.

An inexplicable sense of danger arose spontaneously.

“Be careful!”

Fang Xuan shouted and pushed the two of them away with his palms. At the same time, he borrowed the force to quickly retreat.

A giant bird landed on the ground where the two of them had landed. The bird’s iron claws gripped the sand on the ground tightly, sending it flying in all directions. Then, the bird charged straight at Zhao Xiang and Chen Xiang, who were gathered together, as if it hadn’t seen him.

The newcomer was none other than the Wind Rhinoceros Condor. Fang Xuan made a rough estimation of who was faster between it and the strange lightning, and the final answer was almost the same.

The wind boss in front of him was almost as fast as lightning.

Before Zhao Xiang and Chen Xiang could react, a steel-like claw appeared in front of them.

In the next moment, the two of them flew straight out.

Fortunately, their combat instincts allowed them to take out their weapons in time to block. Although it was not very useful, it was much better than directly landing on their bodies.

At this point, Chen Xiang’s aura was in a complete mess. Fortunately, she was a wind-type Beast Tamer and could adjust quickly with the help of the terrain. As Zhao Xiang was stronger to begin with, she wasn’t affected much.

However, the Wind Rhinoceros Condor did not give them any time to rest. Wave after wave of ruthless attacks followed. From afar, it looked like a huge pitch-black shadow was constantly shuttling between the two of them. Soon, the two of them were injured.

Soon, a huge vacuum appeared behind Chen Xiang.

At the same time, a green blade tore through the air.

Oh no, not only did this fellow know physical attacks, everything that happened just now was probably to pave the way for this.

Zhao Xiang closed her eyes in despair. She didn’t want to see her best friend’s flesh and blood splatter.
