Chapter 323 Support [ask for monthly ticket! ]

There were originally so many fire beasts in the belly of this mountain. If the two of them did not choose a good position and attacked directly, it would be uncertain how much time it would take to extinguish the Xuanyang Fire.

Being prepared to take action immediately is only a last resort.

At this moment, a roar suddenly came from outside, and all the fire beasts in the mountain became panicked and began to flee frantically towards the four sides of the mountain walls, as if they wanted to return to where they came from.

Some more ferocious fire beasts also headed directly towards the cave entrance. In the chaos, no one paid attention to the two of them.

"What's going on?" Monk Yuansheng was a little confused for a moment when he saw the sudden change.

"From their state, it looks like there are enemies coming." Liang Yue also started to move and said, "Let's go and take a look."

Before they walked far, they heard a loud bang in front of them, and a huge red toad smashed through a piece of the mountain wall and rushed out viciously!
It turned out that a fire-eating beast had come in.

No wonder the fire beasts here are so terrified. These stone monsters have truly encountered their natural enemies when they encountered the giant toad.

The few fire beasts that had rushed forward fiercely just now were swallowed up by the toad's long tongue and died instantly. The fire beasts behind hesitated and stopped charging.

When Liang Yue saw this, he knew why this fire beast was always treated as food.

It's because they have some intelligence, but not much.

If they have no intelligence at all and just rush forward one after another, then the big toad can only control one or two fire beasts at a time, and the others can rush forward to attack it.

If they were smarter, they would know that victory requires sacrifice, and charging together is the way to minimize casualties.

However, it was precisely this mediocre intelligence that made them both afraid of death and not knowing how to win. When they saw a fire beast being swallowed, they immediately fled in all directions, and were chased and killed by the big toad from behind, eating them one by one.

Seeing the fire-eating beast devouring like this, Liang Yue and Yuan Sheng were also angry. These were all their prey, and being eaten by this big toad was like taking money out of their pockets.

"Hey!" Monk Yuansheng shouted and was about to step forward to deal with the fire-eating beast.

Liang Yue grabbed him and said, "Don't be impulsive."

"Wait a little longer. If not, all the fire beasts here will be eaten by it, or scared away!" Monk Yuansheng said anxiously.

"This monster is quite powerful. If we deal with it head-on, we will have to use all our strength. By then, its disguise will surely fall off, and it will scare away these fire beasts." Liang Yue said.

"What should we do then?" asked Monk Yuansheng.

"I've thought of an idea. I don't know if it's feasible. Let me try it." Liang Yue said as he rushed towards the fire-eating beast.

"Guwa——" The fire-eating beast was chasing the fleeing fire beasts and eating happily when it suddenly saw a stone monster that was not aware of its own life and death and was actually rushing towards it.

It immediately released its long tongue again, and a red light rolled over the fire beast.

But this time it seems a little different.

Liang Yue was caught by the giant toad's tongue and immediately felt a huge force, as if he was being tightened by some magical golden rope, and was completely unable to move.

In a flash, it entered the big toad's mouth and was about to be swallowed by it.

At this critical moment, Liang Yue activated the Dao of Thunder, and electric light flashed from his body for a moment, instantly paralyzing the long tongue wrapped around him.

After getting some space, he kicked up and hit the fire-eating beast's long tongue underneath.

bang——

The kick caused the fire-eating beast to curl its tongue in an instant and fall heavily to the ground. Liang Yue jumped out of the toad's mouth, and the mission was accomplished.

The fire beasts that were still in chaos around saw that the enemy put away its long tongue that they feared the most and rolled on the ground. They suddenly became energized, rushed over to surround the big toad, and attacked it fiercely from all directions.

"Guwa——" The fire-eating beast became a little more sober, but could not withstand the siege. It exerted force with its limbs, rushed out, and escaped the same way it came.

Although they did not kill their natural enemy, they at least drove it away, and all the fire beasts immediately cheered.

However, while shouting, they did not forget the greatest contributor to their victory over their natural enemies. Liang Yue originally wanted to hide quietly in a corner and wait for an opportunity to hunt the fire beast again.

His original purpose of driving away the fire-eating beast was just to prevent it from eating and keep it for himself.

But suddenly, a large group of fire beasts surrounded Liang Yue, surrounded him, and jumped and danced around him.

"No..." He was a little flustered, "What are you doing?"

"It looks like it's thanking you." Monk Yuansheng laughed softly.

Then a group of fire beasts rushed up, lifted Liang Yue up alive, and threw him into the sky!
“No, no, no…” Liang Yue was afraid of attracting attention, but who knew he would become the center of attention of the fire beast. He pointed at Monk Yuansheng in mid-air and said, “You were the one who lifted me up first. I saw everything!”

"Ow! Ow! Ow!"

A group of fire beasts were throwing Liang Yue around to celebrate, when suddenly several more fire beasts jumped out from caves in different directions and roared warningly again towards the belly of the mountain.

"Roar--"

The herd of fire beasts immediately stopped celebrating and fell into the same state of panic again, but this time they did not flee in panic. Instead, they all gathered in the direction of Liang Yue, surrounded him in the middle, and looked at them together.

"What is this for?" Liang Yue was a little confused for a moment.

Monk Yuansheng came closer and said, "It looks like more than one fire-eating beast has come in. They think you are their leader."

"No..." Liang Yue was speechless for a while, "Me?"

"Yes, it's your fault that you acted so bravely just now." Monk Yuansheng said with a mischievous smile.

The current situation is really awkward. Fire-eating beasts are coming in from all directions. If they don't stop them, all these fire beasts will be eaten by the big toad.

But Liang Yue has already attracted a lot of attention. If he leads the team to fight off those fire-eating beasts, wouldn’t he become the king of fire beasts in this mountain?
How come I, a trial disciple who came to hunt fire beasts, suddenly became the leader?

There is an inexplicable feeling of being appointed...

“Ah—” Seeing that he was still not moving, the surrounding fire beasts began to roar and urge him on. A group of fire beasts began to scream strangely: “Roar, roar, roar!”

It seems to be saying, you are the best just now, from now on I will recognize you as the boss, lead your brothers and charge again!

Monk Yuansheng was also howling there, wondering if the fire beasts could understand what he meant.

Liang Yue must be the leader, he is what everyone wants!
Amid the hasty roars, Liang Yue weighed the pros and cons in his mind and decided that he had to fight off the fire-eating beast first before considering making fire. With such a high status here, wouldn't he be able to take as much as he wanted?

After thinking it over, he nodded heavily, jumped onto a high rock, and pointed forward with his hand.

Come with me!
　Good morning.
