Animal-eared Girl Era: Start by Forming a Contract with an SSS-Class School Belle-Chapter 23: Turning the Tide Against the Wind, Nangong Siyan Captured

Beyond the dense grass.

"Roar!!" A beast's roar thundered forth, as two Steel Lions charged into the group of Demon Snakes, puh puh puh! Four fifth-rank Demon Snakes were trampled, their skins ripped open and flesh burst, gasping their last breaths.

Two Yellow Striped Tigers opened their bloody jaws wide, snapping at the heads of two sixth-rank Demon Snakes with lightning speed, crack crack two heads shattered on the spot, ending the lives of those two sixth-rank Demon Snakes.

The leading Black-Striped Leopard leaped with a silhouette like an illusion, its speed incredibly fast.

[Swift Shadow Traceless: Speed increases fourfold]

Whoosh whoosh! The Black-Striped Leopard moved too fast for the naked eye to see, everyone only felt a shadow flashing by.

"Roar!" A seventh-rank Demon Snake at the early stage had its vital seven-inch section crushed, unleashing a death shriek before succumbing to its fate.

"Hahaha! Come at me again!"

The Black-Striped Leopard let out a carefree laugh, zooming past like a shadow once more, charging towards another seventh-rank Demon Snake, swiftly dodging around fifth-rank and sixth-rank Demon Snakes with an S-shaped movement.

"Hiss!" That seventh-rank early-stage Demon Snake couldn't dodge in time and perished under the jaws of the Black-Striped Leopard.

"Kill! This mission is in the bag. Where did that White Fox go?"

"It's over there in the grass. That White Fox is such a coward, it's been hiding the whole time."

"A fifth-rank can't do much, just as long as it doesn't drag us down!"

While the Cheetah Hunting Team was hunting Demon Snakes, they had the leisure to joke around and talk, but in their words they disdained and looked down on the White Fox with utter contempt.

Watching the jubilant slaughter outside by the Cheetah Hunting Team, Cheng Bingxi spoke, "Something's not right! I smell the stench of an eighth-rank Demon Snake."

"These seventh-rank are just lures, there are at least four eighth-rank lying in ambush for us!"

As the White Fox, a Summoned Beast with an SSS-rank template, detected the subtle differences in the air's scent, Xiao Ye directly confirmed the presence of the eighth-rank.

"Roar!!" Just then, from the dense ancient trees and bushes around, four Eye Demon Snakes with formidable auras suddenly sprang out!

[Lost in the Illusion Realm: A Mental-Type Talent Skill that traps enemies in an illusion realm, group attack]

After the skills of the four Eye Demon Snake Kings were deployed, two Steel Lions and two Yellow Striped Tigers were immediately caught in the Illusion Realm. Now, through each other's eyes, their surroundings didn't seem to have changed, but they appeared to each other as seventh-rank Demon Snakes.

"Roar!" "Roar!"

The Steel Lions and Yellow Striped Tigers brawled with each other.

The Black-Striped Leopard, which was not affected by the illusion, found itself surrounded by four eighth-rank Eye Demon Snake Kings!

"Dammit, this is trouble!" The Black-Striped Leopard thought to itself, the team captain and vice-captain were very anxious.

What made it even more impatient was the sight of a Two-tailed White Fox leisurely walking out from the grass with a particularly elegant posture, all its movements exuding comfort.

Crap! A real burden after all!

The Black-Striped Leopard cursed silently, yelling: "White Fox, get the hell out of here!"

Bang! The Black-Striped Leopard was struck by the tail of an eighth-rank Eye Demon Snake King and was slammed hard onto the ground, creating a small crater.

The eighth-rank, equivalent to the seventh but with a strength four times greater, was utterly overpowering, which even the Black-Striped Leopard at the peak of seventh-rank couldn't withstand.

[Divine Charm: Confuses the enemies' minds, group attack]

Activate, Full Power!

A Mental Wave spread from the Two-Tailed Holy White Fox, and instantly all Demon Snakes, Eye Demon Snake Kings, lions, and tigers on the scene were affected.

"Buzz!"

The scene froze as if the pause button had been hit; aside from the Black-Striped Leopard, all Demon Beasts and Summoned Beasts stopped moving.

The Two-tailed White Fox moved with a graceful stride, pulling the Black-Striped Leopard out of the pit, saying:

"Captain, are you alright?"

"I'm fine. Are you at the seventh-rank Realm?" The Black-Striped Leopard was stunned, then charged towards the eighth-rank Eye Demon Snake King.

"Bang!"—The leopard's kick landed on the body of the eighth-rank Demon Beast, managing only to break the skin slightly.

"Such a strong physique?"

As the Black-Striped Leopard struggled against these Eighth Rank Demon Snakes, the Two-Tailed White Fox made its move, breaking the sound barrier with its physical body, aiming straight for the Demon Snake's vital spot.

[Absolute True Damage: Physical attacks ignore all enemy defenses, inflicting 100 percent real damage]

"Shh-shh-shh-shh!"

Four sounds of flesh being sliced open rang out, and the Eighth Rank Eye Demon Snake King was cut cleanly into two pieces by the sharp claws of the White Fox.

The vital spot, seven inches from the head.

Four Eighth Rank Eye Demon Snake Kings, dead!

"Holy shit, it's that awesome!?" The Black-Striped Leopard cried out in astonishment, as it struggled to breach the defenses of the Eighth Rank Demon Snake, yet the White Fox easily penetrated them.

The Steel Lion and Yellow Striped Tiger came to their senses and were so shocked by the scene that they were lost for words.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The Two-Tailed White Fox unleashed its overwhelming power, and with each sound that followed, the Demon Snakes at the scene perished instantly.

In a fight against Seventh Rank, the White Fox only needed to use its physical strength, not even requiring its Talent Skill.

As for Fifth Rank and Sixth Rank, they were utterly insignificant before the White Fox.

"This is clearly a Seventh Rank White Fox; who the hell told me it was Fifth Rank, I'm gonna lose it!"

"Damn it, this is an SSS-tier Seventh Rank casually trouncing a bunch of our Seventh Ranks single-handedly."

"Uh, looks like we've become dead weight!"

"If only the White Fox could stay in the Cheetah Hunting Team forever!"

"Yeah, changing our leader might be a good idea. Under the White Fox's leadership, what's the Superior Hunting Award to us?"

Watching the Two-Tailed White Fox's elegant combat, the members of the Cheetah Hunting Team turned into mere onlookers, their attitude towards the White Fox changing dramatically as they discussed keeping the White Fox in the Cheetah Hunting Team as the leader.

Black-Striped Leopard: "·····"

This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.

Is it really appropriate to discuss changing the leader right in front of me?

Four Eighth Rank Crystal Cores, three Seventh Rank Crystal Cores, ten Sixth Rank Crystal Cores, twenty Fifth Rank Crystal Cores.

The Two-Tailed White Fox, satisfied with the haul, joyfully counted the blood-stained Crystal Cores that had been harvested from the bodies of the Demon Snakes.

"These Crystal Cores are mine now, no objections, right?" White Fox asked.

"No problem, of course not!"

"Right, big brother, please keep them!"

"These are your victories alone, big brother; we have no objections!"

The five Summoned Beasts of the Hunting Team unanimously expressed their approval.

At this moment, the White Fox was seen by all the Summoned Beasts in the Cheetah Hunting Team as a super genius capable of defeating higher-rank Demon Beasts—a big brother, a new leader who could lead them to glory!

"Ah, help me!"

A clear and pleasant girl's voice came from a distance.

Xiao Ye's face changed drastically; it was Nangong Si Yao's cry for help!

Whoosh—the Two-Tailed White Fox's expression turned stern as it shot toward the source of the sound.

Shortly afterward, it reached the outskirts of the Demon Snake Forest a few kilometers away.

Nangong Si Yao was entangled by a snake-shaped Demon Beast with two small horns on its head, its foul-smelling head hovering above Nangong Si Yao's.

"Ah!" Nangong Si Yao was in a state of panic, her pretty face paled with fear, and her beautiful eyes were filled with horror as the Demon Beast's head loomed close.

A Demon Serpent!

An Eighth Rank Demon Serpent! The son of the current Grandmaster Realm Beast King Serpent!

Endowed with noble bloodlines, born with the ability to control Demon Snakes!
