Under Lin Qiao's control, the fireball under her feet suddenly shrank and fall on the bear's body.
At the moment, the bear's fire energy had been consumed up. A few holes were left on its skin; its blood and flesh were exposed.
Thud! The bear lay on the ground at its last breath.
Lin Qiao got off the bear, then dropped her hands and brought the bear into her space. After that, she suddenly disappeared from where she was and avoided the enormous, level-eight fireball which Si Kongchen threw at her. Half a second later, she showed on the other side of the battlefield.
Bang! The fireball landed on where she and the bear were standing earlier and created a huge pit on the earth.
"It's gone! You… Do you also have space power?" Xie Longyun watched Lin Qiao touch the bear and make it disappear. She popped her eyes with surprise as she stared at Lin Qiao with disbelief and said without thinking.
"You've talked so much, but all you want is me to beat the bear until it's at its last breath so you can take it from me, right?" Lin Qiao stood there calmly, resting one hand in her pocket, the other tossing a fist-sized black fireball. She looked at the woman and said with a scornful smile.
Now, the bear was already in her space. Si Kongchen and the girl would never get it unless they could talk her into letting the bear out willingly.
She had no idea where they got their confidence from. They had been acting like their plan would definitely work. She was a zombie emperor; even if Lan Lu wouldn't help her, she would still be really hard to deal with!
If the two of them attacked once they showed up, she might have trouble fighting them. After all, she needed to spare most of her power to suppress the bear at that moment. But to her surprise, the two actually spent such a while talking nonsense to her after they arrived.
Looking at the empty area where the bear was just now, Si Kongchen instantly pulled a long face. He glanced at Lan Lu, then snorted coldly.
"Let's go!"
He did not know the woman from All Being Base actually had a space, nor that she would be able to suppress the bear completely. How strong was she exactly? A level-eight mutated beast could flatten a town. A level-eight human being could never have a chance to suppress a level-eight beast.
He had seen the situation quite clearly when he arrived and found the bear defenseless under the woman's power. If Lan Lu didn't lend a hand, the woman would consume a great amount of energy suppressing the bear. So, when the woman and the bear were both weakened, he would have a chance to insert himself in the battle.
He thought the bear would last long. But unexpectedly, it didn't take long for the woman to finish it off.
Now, she had put the bear into her space. If she were alone, Si Kongchen would have a chance to defeat her and make her surrender the bear. However, as Lan Lu was also on the scene, he didn't have such a chance.
Therefore, he made a prompt decision to leave.
However, once he turned around, a figure flashed up to him and blocked his way.
Lin Qiao still had a hand resting in her pocket, the other fiddling with a fireball. While smiling, she said, "You showed up when you wanted to show up, and now you're leaving because you feel like it? Chief Si, it's a little inappropriate for you to leave just like this, isn't it? You've already come into the scene, so why don't you pay me for the entrance?"
"Don't go too far! You think you can make us pay the entrance fee?" Xie Longyun looked at Lin Qiao scornfully as she pointed a finger at her and yelled.
Lin Qiao didn't even look at her. She stared at Si Kongchen with a small smile. In spite of the faint smile that she wore on her face, anyone on the scene could detect the cold light in her eyes.
Xie Longyun honestly despised Lu Tianyu for what she had done before. Therefore, she had been talking sourly to Lin Qiao since the beginning, trying to make the latter upset. The real Lu Tianyu might have reacted to her words. However, it wasn't Lu Tianyu standing in front of her; it was Lin Qiao. She neglected the woman's mean words, meaning that she despised Xie Longyun more than the latter despised her. She didn't even bother to say a word to the woman.
Being ignored over and over again, Xie Longyun was finally infuriated. She swung an arm and threw out her long sword. In the air, the sword suddenly fell apart and turned into a series of sharp blades, flying at Lin Qiao.
Maintaining her composure, Lin Qiao threw out the fireball in her hand, which expanded into an enormous, round tiger's head. The tiger widely opened its mouth and devoured half of Xie Longyun's sword.
"Come back!" Xie Longyun charged at Lin Qiao, and at that very moment, Si Kongchen suddenly gave a shout.
"Move!" Lin Qiao also made her voice sound at that very moment. As well
Following her order, Xie Dong and the other zombies who had been staying quietly behind her immediately formed groups and charged at the four level-six men behind Si Kongchen.
Watching Lin Qiao's dark fire devour her blades, Xie Longyun immediately raised an arm. Following her move, the rest of the blades grew longer and larger, then split into more blades. Under her control, all the blades flew fleetingly toward Lin Qiao. Those blades moved so fast that a commoner wouldn't even be able to see them.
Only the ones at Lin Qiao's level could see those blades clearly. In fact, in Lin Qiao's eyes, those blades were moving rather slowly.
Blinking once, Lin Qiao wielded her arms once again. The tiger's head turned as itopened its mouth and circled around her body faster than those blades by many times over, devouring all the blades that were coming at her.
At last, a black, flying fire snake disappeared from Lin Qiao's palm within a blink, then silently reappeared behind Xie Longyun. As the black fire snake was preparing to attack her from the back of her head, a red fire snake suddenly darted over at it.
Two different types of power collided. The two different colored fire snakes tangled together, biting each other. Xie Longyun immediately turned around and moved away, giving a start. If Si Kongchen wasn't fast enough, she would have been hit by the black fire snake. She could imagine the consequences.
Si Kongchen flashed to her side, then grabbed her arm and disappeared.
Lin Qiao didn't chase them, but stayed where she was, sensing their vibes fade away.
The four level-six men that Si Kongchen brought over were now facing Mo, Xie Dong, and the other zombies. They could not get themselves away. Seeing their Chief leave without looking back at them, they realized that they would have to rely on themselves to survive.
Two minutes later, Lin Qiao flashed into her space to deal with the bear. In the space, the bear grew even weaker than before. Lin Qiao gathered the power of the space, with which, she harvested the bear's nucleus within a minute.
After that, she brought the bear's body out of the space and found a clean area to skin it.
"There're holes on its skin. What do you need its skin for?" Lan Lu thought Lin Qiao wanted the fur.
"Who said I want its skin?" Lin Qiao said to him blandly, "I want the meat."
"The meat?" Lan Lu didn't understand, "What do you need this mutated beast's meat for? It's inedible."
"Who said that? It's going to be the food for my zombie soldiers." Busy cutting the bear, Lin Qiao said without turning back.
Lan Lu fell into silence, not knowing what to say.
