Chapter 545 - Stuck
Chapter 545
Stuck
The body of the green-faced fanged beast gave out a sound similar to the whispering breeze, and like a bright green light, it rushed towards Shao Xuan. Its body looked round and heavy, but it seemed very light and floating.
Shao Xuan did not retreat. He shifted his abdomen backwards, twisted his entire upper body to one side while moving his knee backwards. As he avoided this fierce blow, he turned his wrist and readjusted his grip on his sword handle. His blade glinted as Shao Xuan struck the green-faced fanged beast. He was ready to chop off the head of this strange beast.
However, this beast was unusually agile and reacted right away. Right when Shao Xuan was about to chop off its head, it flipped up into the air, twisted its head, and used its fangs to block the blade.
Clang!
The beast fang collided with the blade, but it did not shatter. It only left a small scar that wasn’t deep.
After he missed, he was pushed away by its force. The green-faced fanged beast probably also did not expect Shao Xuan’s weapon to pose such a threat to it. After being pushed back by the force of the clash, it bounced up like a ball again. It quickly swung its hooves and distanced away from its enemy. When it was about twenty steps away from Shao Xuan, it stopped and glared at him fiercely.
Shao Xuan didn’t know if it was his own illusion, or that the green colour on its face darkened. The murderous glaring eyes and the wrinkles on its strangely disproportionate face made it look even more fierce and untamed.
If that was the case, Shao Xuan should really keep up.
Normal warriors would probably have slowed down after running for so long after a prey. There was no way for them to stay at a full speed the entire way. Even Shao Xuan became tired when he reached this part of the forest. It was clear and obvious. But the beast still kept dashing at a very fast speed, except its snorting sound grew louder.
When would it stop?
Shao Xuan looked at the green-faced fanged beast as he thought.
There was a mountain wall in the woods in front of them, and yet the beast did not at all slow down. It did not even turn. Although it was still running aimlessly, its general direction was towards the mountain wall in front of them.
Could there be anything on top of the mountain wall?
Shao Xuan chased after the figure in front and rushed out of the woods. He quickly glanced at the mountain wall in front. There was nothing different about it. It looked just the same as the other mountain walls.
No, that can’t be right!
Shao Xuan’s eyes swept across the mountain wall and he saw a place close to the ground.
There was a hole there, and the green-faced fanged beast was rushing towards that hole.
Was this its hiding place?!
Shao Xuan didn’t know how deep the hole in the mountain wall was, or whether there were other entrances and exits. If he really let the beast rush in, he didn’t know if there was a chance to catch it again.
Although Shao Xuan really wanted to stop the green-faced fanged beast in front of him, he was still one step behind. He could only watch it get closer and closer to the hole in the mountain wall, like a handsome horse galloping across the sky. The long hair on its head swayed in the wind as it drifted away. Its upper body was angled slightly downwards, and it tilted its head so its fang was facing downward. The beast bent its front hooves inwards and shot towards the cave.
Observing the series of movements, Shao Xuan already knew that this was not the first time this beast did this. It was already very skilled.
Huh?
Shao Xuan’s footsteps slowed down. He stopped and stood there as he watched the striped green figure rush towards the hole in the mountain wall.
Boom!
It sounded like the muffled sound of a hand hitting an empty bottle.
Shao Xuan looked at the hole, the muscles on his face twitching, and then lifted his foot and walked over.
At the hole in the mountain wall, the striped green figure was completely stuck in the hole. Half of it was still outside. Its round belly was stuck at the entrance of the cave. Its folded hooves faced outward, and it was stuck there too. It was struggling to get in. Its back legs that were stuck outside the cave kicked fiercely, but its hooves were too short. Its belly that was stuck in the cave limited its body movements so when its hooves kicked, there was a slight distance between its feet and the ground outside the cave, so it was unable to kick off the mountain. It kicked in the air with its short wiggly tail turning in pointless circles. Shao Xuan couldn’t tell if the beast was nervous.
