“You actually want to use Ice Nova?! With your current status as a ranger, it’s impossible for you to use a warrior’s skill!”

Ice Nova was one of the warrior mage skills. To deal with the Purple-Spotted Hyena, using this skill was the best choice. However, with Xia He’s current strength, he couldn’t use it at all.

If this cooldown failed, then Xia He would have no strength left. If the Purple-Spotted Hyena broke free then, none of them would be able to leave.

“D*mn! I didn’t bring any alchemy potions to increase my strength this time! Otherwise, this Purple-Spotted Hyena would be ours!”

Ge Yangguang felt extremely vexed. After all, he uses physical attacks. Naturally, these vital energy potions are usually with him to help him to recover his vitality from magic damage.v

Besides, it wasn’t a matter of whether he had the Vital energy or not. It was just that Xia Xi didn’t have enough strength to use the next skill.

However, under the restriction of Xia Xi’s vines, the Purple-Spotted Hyena’s movements were indeed much slower, and its movements were constantly restricted.

However, it was not difficult for this kind of demonic beast to break free from this kind of imprisonment.

As time ticked by, the Purple-Spotted Hyena suddenly raised its neck and let out a howl. Instantly, Xia Xi’s vine bramble confinement spell was depleted!

The Purple-Spotted Hyena regained its freedom and pounced on Xia He, placing its claws on his body.

Although Xia He was a 1.9 meter tall man, his opponent was a demonic beast. Its size was twice that of a human, so after the claw struck down, Xia He was sent flying and smashed into the ground.

“Ahhh!”

“I knew it! You guys are really useless. We’ve already exhausted the Purple-Spotted Hyena, but you guys still can’t defeat it. You’re really useless!

Ge Yangguang saw Xia He being sent flying and jumped up in shock. The other four got ready to escape.

He thought to himself, even if he got healed, he should be crippled after that strike by the Purple-Spotted Hyena. There’s no way he could still have the ability to overcome this demon beast.

At this moment, Xia Xi’s body began to lose strength. He couldn’t use any more strength.

However, the cooldown for the Ice Nova was almost completely used up. If he did not have enough strength, not only would he not be able to use the skill, he would also be completely out of energy.

“I hope this really works!” At this moment, Xia He laid on the ground and took out the Immortal Pill.

Ge Yangguang looked at the item that Xia He took out and found it familiar. Wasn’t this the Immortal Pill that they saw at Zhang Feng’s shop before they went up the mountain?

After Xia He swallowed the Immortal Pill, the wound in his body instantly closed up and his blood level slowly recovered. He got up from the ground and picked up the longsword again, as if he had not been injured at all.

If Ge Yangguang and the others had not witnessed the Purple-Spotted Hyena’s claw slashing down, no one would believe that the lively Xia He was on his last breath.

“W-what’s going on?” Ge Yangguang’s mouth gaped open in disbelief. What had just happened? It was just a small Immortal Pill, yet it could actually bring someone back from the dead?

At this moment, Xia Xi took out the Invigorate Immortal Pill and swallowed it. He instantly felt her entire body brimming with energy.

It was at this moment that the Purple-Spotted Hyena felt that something was wrong. It wanted to get rid of Xia Xi and Xia He quickly, but it was still greatly damaged by Xia Xi’s Ice Nova.

Thus, the Purple-Spotted Hyena pounced on Xia Xi.

At this moment, Xia He had already reacted. He tightly gripped the longsword in his hand and started fighting with the Purple-Spotted Hyena.

Meanwhile, Xia Xi’s ‘Ice Nova’ had already been successfully condensed. He raised his wooden staff high above his head and shouted, “Ice Magic First Stance—Ice Nova!”

In an instant, ice crystals formed all over the ground and shot towards the Purple-Spotted Hyena.

This attack was extremely powerful. The Purple-Spotted Hyena became like a block of ice, completely frozen. Xia He seized this opportunity and used his huge longsword to shatter the Purple-Spotted Hyena, removing the beast essence from within its body.

Ge Yangguang and the rest were stunned by Xia He’s actions and forgot what they were here for.

Then, Ge Yangguang immediately thought of Zhang Feng’s ‘black market shop’!

It was those two bottles of potions that allowed the two of them to recover their strength. Furthermore, the healing time was basically instantaneous!

Ge Yangguang felt like such a clown. There was a good opportunity in front of him, but he had missed it. He regretted it so much that his intestines felt all twisted!

It turned out that what Zhang Feng said back then was true. The alchemy potions that they brought paled in comparison to the Immortal Pills that Zhang Feng sold!

If he had made up his mind to buy those Immortal Pills from Zhang Feng back then, the outcome would not be like how it was now.

At this moment, the Xia brothers who had collected the beast essence of the Purple-Spotted Hyena, came before Ge Yangguang and the others.

“Thank you for giving us this opportunity just now, Young Master Ge. We’ll take the beast essence. As for the Purple-Spotted Hyena’s corpse, we’ll leave it to you to deal with slowly. I believe it will be of some use.”

When Xia Xi said this, he was actually mocking Ge Yangguang that when he was in danger, he would only cry and not think about how to deal with it.

Now that the two brothers had dealt with the demonic beast, the credit naturally went to them. They had already obtained the beast essence, and the remaining corpse was just a pile of meat. It was useless even if they wanted it.

“Hahaha, that’s right. You said that we couldn’t deal with this Purple-Spotted Hyena. Now you’ve slapped yourself on the face. However, we are also very generous. You can keep this hyena’s corpse as a memento.” Xia He also laughed and followed Xia Xi.

Ge Yangguang was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He was someone who cared about his reputation a lot. Now that he was ridiculed by the two of them, he was furious.

“We have this demon beast’s beast essence, so there’s no need to fight the remaining two Minotaurs. Young Master Ge, we’ll take our leave now.” Xia Xi pretended to be polite to Ge Yangguang and cupped his hands before leaving with Xia He.
