Outlying Islands and Different Swordsmen

Chapter 7 Alien Beast: Blood Phoenix
That thing is getting closer and closer, and it will appear soon.

Yiyao held the gun to prepare for the attack, at the moment when she raised the gun and was about to stab out.Suddenly heard a familiar voice:
"Miss Yang! Is that you?"

Then a man in armor and holding a long sword rushed out from the tree behind him and appeared in front of him.

"Ma Pei?! Lord Ma?"

"Miss Yang, I'm right here! You're not injured, are you?"

Ling Duo shouted: "Master Ma! You scared us to death! You thought it was some kind of strange beast."

"Master Ma, why are you here?" Yi Yao asked.

"After thinking about it, I'm really worried. I came to look for you. By the way, my officers and soldiers came to report, and I can confirm that Yang Yuanwai entered Quanshan City in a carriage! It's a pity that after chasing to the gate of the city, he encountered the city's siege. Things... right now I can't go in."

Yi Yao was a little moved, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ma, for treating my father so highly... But, how did Mr. Ma know that we are here?"

"Worrying that you are in danger, most of our officers and soldiers are still looking for people, so I also came to Quanshan City. Coincidentally, I met your carriage and two guards on the way here, and told me that the three of you entered Miyun Lin." Mapei said, "I broke in, the forest was damp, the torch was extinguished, and when I had no direction, I heard the noise and wanted to say it was you, so I rushed over. You two ladies, you are shocked!"

Ling Duo said: "Fortunately, it is us, if it is a strange beast, you will be in danger, sir!"

Yi Yao thanked him again.It seems that Ma Pei really fell in love with Yiyao, otherwise, how could he rush 150 miles to Quanshan City, and break into the dangerous Miyun forest alone to find someone.

"You're welcome. Yang Yuanwai treated me very well to the officers and soldiers of Linhai City." Mapei said, "He and Miss Yang are in danger, and I will do my best to help!"

To tell the truth, this Ma Pei, as one of the four commanders of the Linhai garrison, has a burly figure, is quite skilled in martial arts, has a courageous and upright character, and cares so much about Yiyao as he does today.But Yiyao doesn't have any thoughts on this aspect at all at the moment, she just wants to find out the whereabouts of her father.

"Three!"

The conversation between the three was interrupted by Mo Xiangzhi in front: "Now is not the time for small talk! Our noises just now must have disturbed the surrounding beasts, so it is time to get out now. Mr. Ma, thank you for coming to the rescue, and please follow us let's go."

After more than half an hour, I saw some starlight in the distance ahead, which seemed to be an open area.

"Look! Great, we are finally going out." Ling Duo said happily, "Thanks to Mr. Mo's sachet and guide. By the way, Mr. Ma entered the forest just now, did you see any strange beasts?"

"I've never seen it before."

As Mapei was talking, he saw three stars flickering in the distance.

"what is that?"

Roar! ! !
The four of them stopped in their tracks, and then a sharp roar came from the starlight. In this silent dense forest, it was as harsh as tearing the sky.Accompanied by the sharp scream, a gust of wind hit the four of them with countless branches and leaves blown down.The four of them could only bend down and squat down, unable to move forward.

"This...is it really a strange beast?!" Mapei shouted.

Roar!There was another roar.

The cries of the beast and the sound of the strong wind resounded in my ears, and people couldn't hear clearly.

"Miss! Let's run!" Ling Duo shouted, pulling Yi Yao to run back.

boom! ! !
As the several feet tall trees in front of them broke and fell one by one, countless branches and leaves were scattered all over the place—the four raised their heads, and a huge strange beast appeared in front of them.

No longer covered by trees, the strange beast showed a blood-red body under the cold moonlight.It is more than ten feet tall, covered with huge blood-red feathers, a sharp beak covered with scales and bony ridges, and three strange, huge golden eyes on its head, pointing straight He looked down at the four people in front of him who were as small as ants.This is a terrifying huge different bird, this scene Yiyao feels that she will never forget it in her lifetime.

The four of them were at the border of Miyun Forest, with Lingquan Mountain in front of them.And the appearance of this strange beast happened to block the only passage leading to Lingquan Mountain.

"Strange beast! Run, run!!" Mapei also shouted, motioning the two girls to run away in front of him.

"Wait! Miss Yang."

At this time, Mo Xiangzhi suddenly stood up and grabbed Yiyao's left arm.

"Ah! Mr. Mo, why do you..."

"Miss Yang, I'm really sorry!" Mo Xiangzhi looked at Yiyao and shouted, his two eyes glowed with blue light, which looked weird, "I said, this is the way we go to Quanshan City!!"

Mo Xiangzhi pointed at the strange beast.

The strange beast roared again, the voice was still piercing and terrifying.

"How is this strange beast possible?" The other three couldn't believe it.

"This is the three-eyed blood phoenix!! Miss, believe me! We can fly to Quanshan City by riding it!" Mo Xiangzhi took out the sachet in his arms and said, "I just lied to you, I gave you The dried flowers of the Yuefeng jacaranda have an unusual fragrance, and it is precisely to attract the appearance of this strange beast! It will not harm us!"

"In such a dangerous situation, what nonsense are you talking about!" Ma Pei pointed his long sword at Mo Xiangzhi, "Release Miss Yang, or I will kill you first!"

"Miss, you must believe me. This three-eyed blood phoenix will never hurt us." Mo Xiangzhi said and let go of Yiyao's hand, "If you don't believe me, try to meet its eyes, it can perceive Your heart. Mr. Ma, don't stop me, let's see Miss Yang."

Yi Yao looked up hesitantly and then lowered her head.The three-eyed blood phoenix seemed to move its body uncomfortably, and let out a low growl. Yi Yao felt the ground tremble.

"Look into its three eyes and don't duck. Trust me, trust me!"

Yi Yao suddenly felt that his words of "trust me" were very similar to Duanmu Hongyan's tone in the dream.It was because of "believing in him" yesterday that he was able to practice the unique method of dispersing qi to repel the enemy.Maybe there are many things and things beyond her imagination in this world, maybe she should believe it.

Yiyao raised her head again, staring at the three huge eyes of the phoenix.Suddenly, she felt hot all over her body, as if her whole body was bathed in the golden eyes of the strange beast.

The strange beast roared again, suddenly took a few steps forward, stretched out its neck towards Yi Yao, and lowered its head and neck to the ground.

"Success!! It has connected with you!!" Mo Xiangzhi exclaimed joyfully, "Miss Yang, it wants you to climb up on its body. Come on, after Miss Yang climbs up, the three of us will climb up together."

Yiyao, Lingduo and Mapei all climbed onto the body of this strange beast with expressions of astonishment; Mo Xiangzhi also climbed up with a face full of joy.

boom!
The three-eyed blood phoenix waved its incomparably broad wings, with a wingspan of about twenty feet, soaring into the sky, and hanging behind it were five huge blood-red phoenix tails that were also tens of feet long.In the cold moonlight, the sight was astonishing.
