Huanhuan asked Xue Hui where Xuan Wei was locked up.
Xue Hui was puzzled. âWhy are you asking?â
âItâs important that I see him immediately.â
She saw that Huanhuan was anxious. It seemed that the matter was really urgent. She hesitated, then said, âI can take you to see him. Just this once.â
Huanhuan quickly said, âThank you!â
âCome with me.â
Xue Hui walked around the stairs and pushed open a hidden door.
The door revealed a dark secret passage.
When Huanhuan saw the secret passage, her expression changed slightly.
Wasnât this the secret passage that Bi Huan had walked through many times in the dream?
After taking two steps, Xue Hui realized that Huanhuan wasnât following her, so she turned back to her. âWhatâs wrong?â
âNothing.â Huanhuan immediately came back to her senses and quickly followed. âWhy is Xuan Wei locked in such a hidden place?â
âHeâs too strong. We donât dare to lock him up with ordinary beasts.â
Xue Hui stopped after a while. She pushed open the stone door on one side of her right hand.
Behind the door was a sealed chamber. Xuan Wei was inside.
He was surprised to see Huanhuan and the others. âWhy are you here?â
Huanhuan said slowly, âI have something to tell you.â
âWhat is it?â
âItâs something very important, but I donât have time to talk about it now. Come with us. Iâll explain everything on the way back.â
Xuan Wei pondered for a moment before agreeing. âAlright.â
âLetâs go.â
Huanhuan couldnât wait to get out of here.
Xue Hui immediately stood in their way.
She frowned and said, âI only agreed to bring you to see Xuan Wei. I didnât say you could take him away. Heâs one of the suspects in stealing the Divine Wood. He canât go anywhere until the truth is out.â
Huanhuan didnât have time to explain to her. She looked back at Bai Di and Xue Ling and asked, âWhat are our chances of success if we force our way out?â
Bai Di thought for a moment. âA conservative estimate would be 60%.â
âThatâs enough. Letâs rush out.â
Xue Huiâs expression changed slightly when she heard their conversation. âYouâ¦â
Before she could finish, Bai Di turned into a white tiger and rushed out!
Xue Hui had to step back to avoid him.
Bai Di shouted, âHuanhuan!â
Huanhuan pounced forward and grabbed the white tigerâs fur. She quickly climbed up and sat on his back.
Xue Hui wanted to stop them, but Xue Ling flapped his wings.
The white tiger growled, âGo!â
He rushed out of the chamber and raced down the secret passage.
Huanhuan turned around and looked into the deepest part of the secret tunnel.
It had been sealed with stones. No one knew that there was an altar hidden there.
On the altar was a poor girl who had been dead for hundreds of years.
Xue Ling and Xuan Wei followed closely behind. The four of them quickly rushed out of the secret passage and ran out of the temple.
Xue Hui followed. She spread her wings. âYou wonât get away!â
Xue Ling didnât even look at her. He raised his hand and threw a fireball at her.
Xue Hui dodged to the side. The fireball flew past her and landed on the ground.
With a whoosh, the wooden ground burned.
The entire temple was made of wood and was filled with flammable things. In the blink of an eye, the fire spread quickly.
Xue Hui had to pause its pursuit and shout for people to put out the fire.
The guards at the entrance of the temple fainted from the lightning released by Bai Di.
Under the cover of Xue Ling and Xuan Wei, Bai Di and Huanhuan rushed out of the encirclement of the guards.
Huanhuan sat on the tigerâs back and grabbed his fur tightly. She lowered her upper body, and her long black hair flew in the wind. She said, âLetâs leave Divine Wood City as soon as possible before Bi Huan and Qian Ye notice!â
Xue Ling flew into the sky. His huge red wings brushed past, leaving a blazing trail.
Xuan Wei transformed into a white tiger that wore heavy metal armor. After shaking off the guards, he sped up and followed Bai Di.
The beasts in the city were surprised to see the four of them in a hurry. They didnât understand why the four of them were running so fast.
It didnât take long for Xue Hui to catch up with them with a bunch of guards.
Huanhuan looked back at Xue Hui and the others and said, âLose them!â
Bai Di rushed into the forest with her on his back. Xuan Wei, who was following behind, broke two big trees with a claw!
The trees fell to the ground and blocked the guardsâ way.
Xue Hui flapped his wings over the trees, preparing to fly over the obstacles.
Xue Ling raised his hand and threw another fireball at the trees.
With a whoosh, the tree trunks were burned.
The towering flames blocked Xue Huiâs path. The smoke was so thick that she had to take a few steps back.
At this moment, Huanhuan heard the system suddenly say, âQian Ye and Bi Huan are awake!â
His voice had just sounded when Huanhuan heard a deafening trumpet.
Trumpet!!!
She turned to look in the direction of the sound and saw Bi Huan transform into a huge white elephant. She saw the temple surrounded by a sea of fire. He raised his head to trumpet angrily.
The white elephantâs long nose was raised, and countless splashes sprayed out, quickly extinguishing the fire.
Qian Ye stood on the white elephantâs back. He was small, but his vision was good. He immediately saw Huanhuan and the other three who were rushing into the forest.
He pointed in the direction of Huanhuan and said, âTheyâre there.â
The white elephant strode heavily toward Huanhuan.
His body was extremely huge and heavy. With every step he took, the ground would tremble.
The beasts were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground and trembled.
The white elephant was not fast, but his steps were big. Soon, the distance between him and the four of them was greatly shortened.
âIâll stop them!â After saying this, Xuan Wei rushed toward the white elephant without looking back.
The white tiger was very big, but he still looked very petite in front of the white elephant.
The white elephant swung his thick long nose at Xuan Wei!
Xuan Wei nimbly dodged, then circled behind the white elephant and pounced on it to bite its tail!
Blood splattered as the white elephant roared in pain!
Seeing this, Qian Ye immediately transformed into a black monkey and rushed forward. He grabbed Xuan Weiâs neck and dragged him out.
Xuan Wei suddenly released the power of the beast soul in his body.
The powerful force sent Qian Ye flying!
The white elephantâs tail was bitten off by Xuan Wei, and blood flowed down its legs to the ground. The furious white elephant turned around, raised its legs, and stepped on Xuan Wei!
Xuan Wei turned and ran, and the white elephant was in hot pursuit of him.
Qian Ye got up from the ground. Before he could steady himself, Xue Ling grabbed his shoulder.
Xue Ling grabbed him and flew into the sky. He shouted at the white elephant, who was chasing Xuan Wei crazily.
âHey! Big guy, look up here!â
The white elephant stopped and looked up. He saw Xue Ling flying in the air with Qian Ye in his claws.
Xue Ling grabbed Qian Yeâs neck and smiled. âIf you move again, Iâll kill your beast king!â
