Chapter 53: Instantly Killing Vicious Beasts to Save Three People

"Tsk, tsk. In this Thorn Jungle, even a Formal Martial Artist with slightly inferior movement techniques would find it difficult to proceed."

Surveying the harsh environment around him, Su Lang clicked his tongue and then pulled out a map.

After determining his direction, Su Lang followed the route marked on the map toward the Ye Family's Golden Flame Leopard Stronghold.

Suddenly!

Three disheveled figures ran out from the jungle not far away.

These three carried backpacks and were covered in blood; the blood on their clothes had even dried, clearly indicating they had been through many battles.

At this moment, their faces were filled with terror as they glanced back from time to time, clearly being pursued.

"Roar—!!"

A massive white leopard about two meters tall charged out of the jungle, its jewel-like eyes fixed intently on the three fleeing people.

Tufts of golden mane grew on the white leopard's neck and the backs of its knees; in the mountain wind, they looked like burning golden flames!

"So this is a Golden Flame Leopard? Not bad, not bad at all. Quite majestic!"

Su Lang looked at the white leopard with interest. "It's a pity it can't be tamed as a mount."

Immediately after, four more white leopards rushed out, surrounding the three heavily injured Martial Artists.

"It's over, it's over!"

"We're dead for sure this time!"

"Wife, kids, I've failed you!"

"…"

The three Martial Artists had looks of despair on their faces.

"Roar!!"

The Golden Flame Leopard let out another low growl, its body turning into a white afterimage as its sharp claws tore through the air, lunging at them fiercely.

"Let's fight to the death!"

One Martial Artist showed a fierce expression, his longsword sweeping through the air; he would rather die than let these Golden Flame Leopards have an easy time.

The other two also gritted their teeth, prepared for a last stand!

At that moment, a figure suddenly rushed over.

"Who's there!?"

The leader of the three Martial Artists looked surprised and then shouted, "Don't come over! Run away!"

But it was too late; the figure had already charged beneath the claws of a Golden Flame Leopard!

"Kill!"

Seeing that the situation was irreversible, the three Martial Artists immediately charged forward to fight the Golden Flame Leopards alongside the person who had come to help.

But just then, they heard a low shout!

"Instant!"

Su Lang lunged forward and drew his blade.

In the next instant, a blade-light flashed, surrounded by winding lightning!

The bodies of the four Golden Flame Leopards suddenly froze, and then they collapsed powerlessly to the ground, without even a chance to let out a scream.

Immediately after, the corpses of the Golden Flame Leopards vanished into thin air, and a System notification sounded.

"Ding! You have obtained Golden Flame Leopard Fang *4, Golden Flame Leopard Eyeball *2, Golden Flame Leopard Fur *1, Golden Flame Leopard Claw *4…"

"How refreshing!"

The corners of Su Lang's mouth curled up as he sheathed his blade.

"This, this, this!"

"My god, so powerful!!"

"One strike! He killed all the Golden Flame Leopards chasing us with just one strike!?"

"And the Spiritual Qi fluctuations from his body are only at the level of a Beginner Martial Artist. This is simply unbelievable!"

The three Martial Artists' eyes widened, the shock in their hearts like a world-shaking tidal wave.

Then, they noticed that the corpses of the Golden Flame Leopards had actually disappeared, making them even more shocked!

"A space ring!"

"This is definitely a Young Master from a big Family in an Advanced stronghold!"

The gazes of the three Martial Artists toward Su Lang became increasingly reverent, like Mortals looking at an immortal.

"What are you standing there for?"

Su Lang glanced at the three indifferently. "Aren't you going to tend to your wounds?"

Their first reaction upon seeing him was to tell him to leave, with no intention of dragging him into their mess; they seemed to have some conscience.

Thus, Su Lang's attitude was relatively mild.

"Oh! Yes, yes, yes!"

"Thank you for the reminder, Young Master!"

The three immediately began to treat their wounds.

Before long, they had all applied their medicine.

Su Lang threw out three sets of clothes: "Since yours are in tatters, put these on."

"Thank you for the gift, Young Master!"

The leading Martial Artist received Su Lang's clothes as if they were precious treasures and then distributed them to the other two.

"What are your names?"

Su Lang asked calmly, "Are you familiar with the Golden Flame Leopard Stronghold?"

"To answer the Young Master, my name is Lu Zhong, and these two are Deng Qi and Wang Cheng."

The leader, Lu Zhong, answered respectfully, "We spend all year in the Golden Flame Leopard area, so we are very familiar with the Golden Flame Leopard Stronghold!"

"Hmm… I'm a bit tired."

Su Lang smiled slightly. "Could you take me to the Golden Flame Leopard Stronghold to rest?"

This was Su Lang's purpose for saving these three.

The Golden Flame Leopard Stronghold was a semi-open stronghold; besides Ye Family Martial Artists, only those whose backgrounds were well known could enter.

Su Lang knew that if he were alone, he would definitely be barred from entry.

But with Lu Zhong and the others leading him, it would be different; he could walk right into the Golden Flame Leopard Stronghold with a swagger!
