Ye Feng clapped his hands, turned around, and gazed into the distance. After watching for a while, he clicked his tongue and smiled, saying, "Ning Ruoxue, do you know what this beast is called?"
Ning Ruoxue gracefully moved closer to Ye Feng and shook her head. "There are some beasts in the back mountains of Dragon Tiger Sect, but they are quite rare. This is the first time I've seen this one, so I don't know its name!"
Ye Feng smiled without responding.
Seeing that Ye Feng completely ignored his question, the man felt a bit annoyed but dared not express his anger. The words he had previously forced out had exhausted all his courage, and he truly did not have the guts to shout again at this moment.
However, the second brother, unaware of the situation, glared fiercely at Ye Feng's back and shouted, "Brat, do you really think we four are afraid of you? Without you two, we can still kill that beast. Now you've not only let it go but also look down on us like this. This kind of insult is something I, Zhao Tieyang, cannot tolerate. Either you fight me properly today or you can just end it yourself here."
"Second Brother, what are you talking about? They mean no harm; don't be so impulsive," the only girl among them said hurriedly, her pale face showing a hint of color.
Girls tend to be more perceptive. From Ye Feng's earlier glance, she realized that the two before them were definitely not opponents they could handle. Moreover, the fact that the beast had left on its own indicated that these two were much stronger than it.
Hearing the girl's words, Ye Feng turned around with interest and continued to smile. "You three should learn from this little girl. Speaking without weighing your words—what's so great about being at Martial Realm level six or seven? Since you dared to hunt this beast, you must know its background. This Two-Headed Giant Serpent is extremely rare and won't appear easily. However, once it does show up, its natural enemy, the Snow Ferret, will also appear. I observed carefully just now; there is a blood-red claw mark on its back, clearly inflicted by a Snow Ferret. I'm not interested in this giant serpent, but I am very interested in that Snow Ferret. Don't worry; I know that the inner core of the giant serpent is very important to you. Since I've let it go, I will definitely find it and kill it for you to take the inner core. However, I will claim the inner core of the Snow Ferret."
Ning Ruoxue looked at Ye Feng in surprise. She didn't know where he got all this information but thought for a moment before saying, "So you're saying that this Two-Headed Giant Serpent fled here because it was injured by the Snow Ferret? And that the Snow Ferret is actually deeper in? If we follow this giant serpent now, we will definitely be able to find the Snow Ferret?"
"Smart! Ning Ruoxue is indeed Ning Ruoxue! That's right; that's why I let it go. But watch closely; it won't be long before this fellow gets targeted by the Snow Ferret. The Snow Ferret is very wary of humans; even if it's powerful, it won't easily appear before people. Therefore, a single inner core from a Snow Ferret can fetch an astronomical price!"
The leading man felt somewhat ashamed upon hearing this conversation and immediately cupped his fists apologetically. "I'm sorry for misunderstanding you earlier; it's just that the Two-Headed Giant Serpent is too valuable to us. My father was poisoned by a rare toxin and needs the inner core of this beast as an antidote. We heard there was a Two-Headed Giant Serpent appearing in this area and brought our family members here to hunt it down. We didn't expect it to be a fourth-tier beast and ended up losing so many lives for nothing. In fact, my second brother is just stubborn; if it weren't for your appearance, we would already be corpses by now instead of standing here talking!"
Ye Feng waved his hand dismissively. "No need to say all that; we are merely passing acquaintances. I use it to lure out the Snow Ferret while you obtain the inner core—it's mutually beneficial with no loss on either side. However, your cultivation levels are too low; just wait here obediently."
Ning Ruoxue frowned and said, "Ye Feng, hunting the Snow Ferret will inevitably delay some matters; will we make it in time?"
Ye Feng pondered for a moment and replied, "Snow Ferrets are extremely rare; if we miss this opportunity, there may not be another one. I think if we hurry up a bit more, we should be able to make it."
Ning Ruoxue sighed lightly and said helplessly, "Then let's hurry up!"
After saying that, her figure flashed and instantly disappeared from the spot.
Ye Feng also used Wind Treading Step, quickly following behind Ning Ruoxue.
The two figures vanished in an instant, and the next moment, they were completely out of sight.
Zhao Tieyang swallowed nervously and said, "Big Brother, these two seem to have reached the Origin Martial Realm. I haven't heard of any young experts from any family recently; could they be from one of the major sects?"
The four of them were from Zhao Family Village. The eldest brother was named Zhao Qingcheng, another man was Zhao Dong, and the last woman was their Sister Linlin, named Zhao Linlin.
Zhao Qingcheng rolled his eyes at him and said loudly, "You almost got us killed just now with your careless words. Luckily, they didn't hold it against us. But I don't think they look like people from our Northern Frontier; they are probably from the Northern Jin Dynasty. I heard there is a Nine Sects Trial in the Qiu Yang Secret Realm; I suspect these two are Sect Disciples going to participate in it."
"Northern Jin Dynasty!" Zhao Tieyang gasped in surprise. "That's a major dynasty; I wonder which sect they belong to!"
"Second Brother, don't be envious. Focus on your training; even in a small place like ours, you can still become a disciple of the Origin Martial Realm. Besides, our Northern Frontier sects also have powerful individuals; there's no need to envy!" Zhao Linlin said with a smile.
Since hearing Ye Feng's words, her mood had improved; at least there was hope for her father.
Zhao Tieyang chuckled a few times and fell silent.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng and Ning Ruoxue quickly pursued the direction where the giant snake had gone. Soon, they discovered that the giant snake had stopped not far away.
Stopping their movements, Ye Feng whispered, "Do you see the Snow Ferret? It's right ahead."
At this moment, Ning Ruoxue noticed that in front of the giant snake, there was a small, fluffy creature entirely white, staring intently at the giant snake.
"Is this thing the Snow Ferret?" Ning Ruoxue was taken aback.
It was no wonder she reacted this way; girls generally have a fondness for fluffy creatures, and this one looked as cute as a rabbit. It was hard to imagine that this creature would be fighting against a giant snake.
"Don't underestimate the Snow Ferret. Generally, Snow Ferrets are quite powerful and extremely fast. Moreover, their claws contain potent venom. If you're not careful, you could get poisoned, and after half an hour, even a deity would struggle to save you. Of course, if one is strong enough, they wouldn't fear the Snow Ferret's toxin. However, to avoid unnecessary trouble, it's better to be cautious! Look, the giant snake has already been poisoned and has lost its ability to move!"
Hearing this, Ning Ruoxue realized that the giant snake was indeed motionless!
Suddenly, Ye Feng swiftly drew the Azure Dragon Sword. The sword flashed with a blue light and shot straight toward the Snow Ferret. To avoid being detected initially, Ye Feng and Ning Ruoxue had chosen to stop at a distance. At this moment, the appearance of the sword light was so sudden that it would be difficult to evade if one wasn't paying attention.
After unleashing the sword light, Ye Feng also moved toward the Snow Ferret.
To outsiders, it seemed like a guaranteed hit.
Unfortunately, the Snow Ferret also possessed fourth-tier cultivation. Upon sensing the danger, its petite body vanished in an instant.
Ye Feng did not expect that this sword light alone would kill the Snow Ferret; his main strategy lay in what came next.
In mid-air, Ye Feng suddenly threw his long sword out. The sword transformed into a streak of blue light and shot straight down toward the ground.
This maneuver was entirely aimed at blocking the Snow Ferret's escape route. For just a brief moment, the Snow Ferret hesitated. However, during that fleeting second, Ye Feng's Tide Sound Palm followed closely behind.
In just a few breaths' time, the Snow Ferret was killed!
Ning Ruoxue stared in astonishment at Ye Feng, her mind filled with a single thought: this Ye Feng is truly a monster!
She hadn't even seen the movement path of the Snow Ferret; how did Ye Feng know? Could it be that Ye Feng's strength was really that much greater than hers?
What she didn't realize was that Ye Feng's ability to kill the Snow Ferret was mostly due to luck. He hadn't expected to uncover the Snow Ferret's route with just a single probe. It must be said that sometimes, luck plays a significant role.
At this moment, the giant serpent had completely lost its life force. It was no wonder, as it was inherently the natural enemy of the Snow Ferret. Being contaminated by the Snow Ferret's toxin, especially after entering its body, it was a miracle it hadn't died.
Ye Feng then took out two inner cores, playing with them in his hands, and said with a smile, "Ruo Xue, these inner cores from the Snow Ferret will be beneficial for you; keep them!"
"Huh?" Ning Ruoxue was momentarily stunned and asked in confusion, "Why do you say that? What good will it do me?"
Without waiting for her response, Ye Feng tossed one over and shouted, "Hurry over and give this inner core to them, then let's get going. They must be anxious and worried that we won't return."
Ning Ruoxue was still in shock, and by the time she came to her senses, Ye Feng had already disappeared.
In reality, there was only one reason why Ye Feng killed the Snow Ferret: when he saw the giant serpent, Xuan Lao had told him that where the Two-Headed Giant Serpent appeared, there would usually be a Snow Ferret present. The Snow Ferret could effectively suppress the violent attributes of Ning Ruoxue's Phoenix True Blood. If luck was on their side, when they encountered an Ice Frog later on, combined with a certain herb, they could refine a pill that would basically solve this problem.
Thus, Ye Feng did not hesitate to hunt down the Snow Ferret. However, at this moment, Ning Ruoxue was completely unaware of this!
