Chapter 1860 Must Keep a Low Profile

"Oh my god, there are so many!"

Seeing so many Ironclad Lizards, Zuo Xiaoqing immediately turned pale with fright.

Xie Anbang's eyes widened, and he stood there dumbfounded.

He might not even be able to handle one adult Ironclad Lizard, so how could he fight when so many appeared at once?

Ye Bufan, however, was not surprised and still wore a faint smile on his face.

When he was researching the Hundred Beast Pill Formula in the Library, he had incidentally read some books about Yao Beasts and knew that these Ironclad Lizards always liked to live in groups.

Only one had appeared just now; it must have been a young Ironclad Lizard that got lost and died at the hands of Xie Anbang and his companions.

In such a situation, they should have left quickly after succeeding, otherwise, they would soon face retaliation from the Ironclad Lizard group.

Unfortunately, Xie Anbang and his companions lacked experience in training and it was their first time in a Level 5 Yao Beast area, so they didn't understand the characteristics of this type of Yao Beast at all.

After succeeding, they were so busy showing off in front of Hu Yaoyao that they had already missed the best time to escape.

He glanced at the trembling Xie Anbang again and said teasingly, "Hero, it's time for your performance."

"I…"

Xie Anbang wished he could strangle this pretty boy in front of him, but there was clearly no time for that now; a huge Ironclad Lizard suddenly pounced on him.

At the same time, the other Ironclad Lizards around them also swarmed forward and launched an attack.

Helpless, he could only brace himself and swing the greatsword in his hand, fiercely slashing at the Ironclad Lizard in front of him.

But this was an adult Ironclad Lizard, its combat power comparable to a Peak Soul Transformation Cultivator, how could he, a Middle Stage Soul Transformation Cultivator, deal with it?

Although the greatsword in his hand struck the Ironclad Lizard's head with a clang, it was immediately bounced high, almost flying out of his grip.

Yao Beasts' defensive power is innate, especially for the Ironclad Lizard, which is best at defense.

Xie Anbang's impression was still stuck on the previous one; he didn't expect this one to be so powerful, and in a panic, he prepared to retreat.

But how could the Ironclad Lizard give him a chance to escape? It suddenly leaped up, opened its maw, and bit at him.

Facing the overwhelming attack, Xie Anbang dared not resist this time and directly shifted his feet to the right, dodging.

But unexpectedly, the Ironclad Lizard, having reached the level of a Level 5 Yao Beast, already possessed some intelligence; after biting empty, it raised its massive claw and fiercely slapped him on the chest.

This

slap landed squarely, and Xie Anbang instantly flew backward like a swatted fly, slamming hard against the rock wall behind him.

On the other side, the situation for the others was not optimistic; after him, Junior Brother Zhou Qingchen had already swung his longsword, slashing at another Ironclad Lizard.

However, he only had an Early Stage Soul Transformation cultivation, and the difference in strength was too great; that Ironclad Lizard opened its mouth wide and directly tore off his treasured sword along with his arm.

Seeing this scene, Zuo Xiaoqing let out a scream.

Although she was a Cultivator, she was also a woman, and seeing this bloody scene had scared her out of her wits; she turned her head, ready to flee.

But she had forgotten that she was now completely surrounded by Ironclad Lizards; as soon as she turned, she encountered another Ironclad Lizard charging up, trying to swallow her whole.

"Ah!"

Zuo Xiaoqing screamed again; she was completely terrified now, even forgetting to dodge.

As the gaping maw was about to swallow her, a large hand grabbed her lower back and pulled her away, causing the Ironclad Lizard to bite empty.

Having escaped a calamity, Zuo Xiaoqing's face was pale, and her chest heaved violently; she had truly been terrified.

She turned her head and saw that the one who had just saved her was the pretty boy following behind Hu Yaoyao.

Ye Bufan looked at her and smiled, "You're really inexperienced; in this situation, you should find a safe place to hide."

After speaking, he pulled Zuo Xiaoqing and directly hid behind Hu Yaoyao; behind them was a mountain wall, and in front, Hu Yaoyao was guarding, making it much safer in comparison.

"Uh…"

This person had just saved her, and logically, she should be grateful, but seeing his actions, Zuo Xiaoqing pursed her lips again.

"You, a big man, are hiding behind a woman, don't you feel ashamed?"

Ye Bufan chuckled, saying indifferently, "What's there to be ashamed of? My woman is capable, so she should protect me."

With his current cultivation, destroying these Ironclad Lizards in front of him would be effortless, but the purpose of this trip was for the seven star grass, and there would certainly be many people coming to snatch it.

In this situation, playing the pig to eat the tiger was the best choice; he had to be low-key and hide his trump cards to play an unexpected role at critical moments.

Besides, he had just helped Hu Yaoyao improve her cultivation, so in this situation, it was only right for her to help him out.

But Zuo Xiaoqing didn't know any of this; she pursed her lips, her face full of disdain.

(Chapter not finished, please turn the page)

As the two were talking, three Ironclad Lizards had already pounced towards them.

Xie Anbang had just gotten up from the ground when he saw this scene; he wanted to be a hero and save the beauty, but unfortunately, he didn't have the ability.

"Be careful…"

He shouted loudly, wanting to warn them, but then saw Hu Yaoyao casually raise her palm and slap outwards.

Then, a scene that would be unforgettable for him occurred: those massive Ironclad Lizards were slapped away one by one, just like swatting flies.

"Uh…"

Xie Anbang was instantly dumbfounded; this scene in front of him was so familiar, it was exactly how the Ironclad Lizard had slapped him just now.

Now, it was just a reversal, and the ones being slapped away were the Ironclad Lizards.

He just couldn't understand how such a charming-looking woman could possess such powerful cultivation.

"This is a Void Refining Realm Cultivator!"

The heavily injured Zhou Qingchen's face was filled with shock, followed by immense joy.

Regardless, with a Void Refining Realm Cultivator here, his life was finally saved.

He moved his feet and directly hid behind Hu Yaoyao, standing next to Ye Bufan.

At the same time, Xie Anbang also realized this problem, disregarding the shock in his heart, and also fled over in a disheveled state.

Hu Yaoyao faced the nearly hundred Ironclad Lizards in front of her without fear; she punched one charging Ironclad Lizard, causing it to explode, and then the Aura of a strong Cultivator suddenly erupted.

"Get out of here immediately, or I'll kill you without mercy!"

These Ironclad Lizards, after reaching Level 5, already possessed a little intelligence; seeing that the opponent was so powerful, going forward would only be suicide.

In the end, they all retreated, disappearing into the dense forest in the blink of an eye.

Seeing that these big guys had finally left, Xie Anbang let out a long sigh of relief, then collapsed onto the ground.

Ye Bufan looked at him and said teasingly, "Hero Xie, when did you hide over here? I was still waiting to see you slice and dice them!"

"You…"

Thinking of his previous boasts, Xie Anbang's face turned beet red, "What right do you have to talk about me? At least I fought."

"Fought? Being beaten like a dog, is that called fighting?"

Ye Bufan pursed his lips, his face full of mockery.

Xie Anbang shouted in exasperation, "What kind of man are you, hiding behind a woman? If you're so capable, go fight the Ironclad Lizards yourself!"
