Sour Pickled Peanuts

Chapter 366 Xueying Awakens

The previous Dragon Scale Ice Tiger had already shown Qin Han Chu the terror of bloodline spirit beasts.

Therefore, he was very clear about how powerful this firebird was.

Although the warriors of the Three Sects had temporarily formed an alliance, the number and combat power of the spirit beasts far surpassed theirs.

Facing the threat of the firebird, most people revealed panic in their eyes.

They knew very well that this battle was hopeless.

Just then, Qin Han Chu suddenly grabbed Lan Yan and Hong Luan by their wrists.

Sensing Qin Han Chu's action, Lan Yan instinctively tried to break free, but Qin Han Chu held on tightly.

When she looked at Qin Han Chu, she saw him give her a meaningful glance.

In contrast, Hong Luan was much calmer.

She was merely looking at Qin Han Chu with a puzzled gaze.

“Hand over the Crimson Spirit Flowers, and it’s not a dead end?”

“Only a fool would believe spirit beasts are honorable.”

Wang Yi said coldly.

“If you don’t hand them over, then you die!”

The firebird suddenly flapped its wings.

As it flapped, terrifying flames surged towards everyone.

Although it was a bloodline spirit beast, it did not have the ability to fight all the warriors alone.

However, its action was a signal to attack.

All the spirit beasts then launched their attacks on the warriors of the Three Sects.

It was at this moment that Qin Han Chu finally summoned the Snow Eagle.

With the Snow Eagle’s appearance, the terrifying aura of the Spirit King realm exploded outwards.

This terrifying aura immediately startled all the spirit beasts into stopping.

The warriors of the Three Sects also widened their eyes in shock.

After appearing, the Snow Eagle directly flapped its wings.

Thousands of ice cones flew towards the spirit beast swarm.

In an instant, the spirit beast swarm was thrown into chaos by the ice cones.

Any War God realm spirit beast hit by an ice cone was immediately frozen.

This kind of large-scale attack had a dispersed lethality, so these War God realm spirit beasts were, at best, injured, not fatally.

The moment the Snow Eagle launched its attack, Qin Han Chu had already brought Lan Yan and Hong Luan onto its back.

“Go!”

Even with a Spirit King realm spirit beast like the Snow Eagle present, Qin Han Chu did not intend to stay and fight these spirit beasts.

No one knew how many Spirit King realm spirit beasts there were on the spirit beast side.

If he were cornered by another Spirit King realm spirit beast, Qin Han Chu wouldn’t be able to escape.

The Snow Eagle did not linger to fight; it soared directly upwards and was gone in an instant.

It was only now that Wang Yi and the others reacted.

Taking advantage of the chaos among the spirit beasts, they also surged into the sky, wanting to escape.

Among these people were many "privileged second-generations" like Wang Yi and Chen Longhe.

As "privileged second-generations," their backgrounds were naturally incomparable to ordinary warriors.

They either summoned flying spirit beasts to flee or applied acceleration spirit talismans to themselves.

Taking advantage of the commotion Qin Han Chu caused, more than ten people quickly fled.

The remaining warriors were in danger.

They faced the wrath of the spirit beasts.

“Your Snow Eagle has already reached the Spirit King realm, hasn’t it?”

Hong Luan and the other didn’t seem foolish; the Snow Eagle couldn’t have broken through so coincidentally.

Furthermore, the strength displayed by the Snow Eagle clearly showed it was already familiar with the methods of the Spirit King realm.

“I originally intended to guard against Wang Yi’s tricks, but I didn’t expect these spirit beasts to force me to reveal it early.”

Qin Han Chu said.

Lan Yan didn’t say much; she could understand Qin Han Chu’s thoughts.

Those who could survive in the martial arts world were not fools.

Unless they had the protection of a major power, innocent people wouldn’t survive to the War God level.

“Wang Yi is malicious; it’s indeed wise to be wary of him.”

“I wonder if Chen Longhe can escape.”

Although Hong Luan disliked Chen Longhe, they had been friends since childhood.

Thus, she felt a sense of worry.

Chen Longhe had not attacked Qin Han Chu, but he harbored no good intentions towards him, so Qin Han Chu had not taken him along.

The Snow Eagle was a spirit beast adept at flight, and a Spirit King realm Snow Eagle was even faster.

In just half an hour, they had left the Crimson Mountain Range.

“Here you go!”

Once temporarily safe, Lan Yan handed two Crimson Spirit Flowers to Qin Han Chu.

Qin Han Chu frowned: “What do you mean?”

“You saved me; this is my token of gratitude.”

“If you ever need my help in the future, I will never refuse.”

Lan Yan said indifferently.

“Thank you.”

Qin Han Chu did not refuse and readily accepted the two Crimson Spirit Flowers.

Hong Luan also took out two, saying with a slight pang of reluctance: “Since she gave them, it would be odd if I didn’t.”

Qin Han Chu accepted them without hesitation: “Just pretend you never took these two Crimson Spirit Flowers.”

“Master, are these Crimson Spirit Flowers for me?”

The Snow Eagle asked expectantly.

“Nonsense, you are my only contracted beast; who else would I give them to?” Qin Han Chu replied.

“Thank you, Master, I will dedicate my life to you!” the Snow Eagle said excitedly.

As they were returning to the Twin Extreme Sect, they happened to encounter reinforcements from the Twin Extreme Sect.

Under the summons of the Twin Extreme Sect, they landed on the reinforcement’s flying ship.

“Father!”

“Master!”

Hong Luan and Lan Yan, seeing their elders, hurried over.

Qin Han Chu did not follow them; he retreated to the ranks of ordinary disciples.

While no one was paying attention, Qin Han Chu tossed the six Crimson Spirit Flowers he held into his beast ring.

Shortly after, Wang Yi and Chen Longhe also returned to the reinforcement’s flying ship.

Wang Yi’s gaze towards Qin Han Chu held no gratitude; instead, it grew colder.

In such a perilous environment, Qin Han Chu had only fled with the two beautiful women, which was clearly intentional.

Most importantly, Qin Han Chu’s Snow Eagle had reached the Spirit King realm.

As the grandson of an elder, he didn’t even have a Spirit King realm contracted beast, yet Qin Han Chu possessed one!

When the reinforcements arrived at the Crimson Mountain Range, the spirit beast army had long since dispersed.

The warriors of the Three Sects had suffered heavy casualties.

Even two Spirit King realm cultivators from the Twin Extreme Sect had perished.

This demonstrated the ferocity of the spirit beast clan’s attack.

This operation clearly had a commander.

This meant that these spirit beasts had formed a spirit beast kingdom.

This battle was merely the beginning; if the three major sects retaliated, it was highly probable that humanity and the spirit beast clan would erupt into a major war.

Qin Han Chu was just a minor disciple of the Twin Extreme Sect, so he was naturally not privy to the sect’s plans.

Qin Han Chu, however, did not care.

Upon returning to the sect, Qin Han Chu resumed his closed-door cultivation.

During this period, the Snow Eagle was using the power of the Crimson Spirit Flowers to attempt a bloodline awakening.

Seven days later, Qin Han Chu, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes.

His eyes were filled with joy.

He could feel the Snow Eagle’s excitement.

At this moment, only a bloodline awakening would elicit such emotions from the Snow Eagle.

Opening the portal of the beast ring, Qin Han Chu saw the Snow Eagle in the spirit beast space.

The Snow Eagle had undergone many subtle changes.

Firstly, its claws, originally dark brown, had turned azure blue.

Beneath this sheen, the eagle claws seemed even sharper.

In addition to its claws, the Snow Eagle’s pupils had also turned emerald green.

As for its feathers, they now shimmered with a faint blue hue.
