My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome-Chapter 716 - 83 S03 ’Hidden Fang
Chapter 716: Chapter 83 S03 ’Hidden Fang
Thump, thump.
Shao Zifeng’s mind went blank, and the sounds around him became very distant; he could only hear his own heartbeat.
A warm liquid slowly trickled down his face, Shao Zifeng’s whole body felt numb, his blood seemed to stop flowing, and the suffocating feeling made it hard for him to breathe.
"Meow—"
Qiqi’s tiny body traced a parabola in the air, heavily crashing to the ground and rolling backward until it finally came to a halt against the city wall.
She lay silently in a pool of blood, her white fur quickly turning red as fresh, scarlet blood flowed from beneath her body, spreading through the crevices of the cobblestones.
"Qiqi!"
Shao Zifeng suddenly came to his senses, nearly collapsing to the ground as his legs gave out. He staggered toward Qiqi, supporting himself with his hands on the ground.
"Qiqi... Qiqi." Shao Zifeng, with a panicked expression, reached out to hold her, but the sight of her appalling injuries made him afraid to touch her carelessly.
There was a fist-sized penetration wound in her abdomen; he could vaguely see the damaged organs pulsating lightly. Any small movement caused her entire body to convulse.
"Faster, please faster."
In the corner of his eye, blue dots spun, and a pale blue barrier slowly unfolded.

When death triggers ’Speech Spirit Nine Lives’, it may drop a star in talent, and each drop in talent can cause an irreversible mental damage to the pet.)
It seemed as if Qiqi felt Shao Zifeng approaching, for she slowly opened her eyes.
She lifted her little paw, and in a weak voice tinged with grievance, she said, "Zifeng... it hurts."
After uttering those words, her little paw fell lifelessly, and the last bit of sparkle disappeared from her eyes.
Shao Zifeng’s shoulders trembled slightly, his bloodshot eyes rapidly dilated and then contracted, a cycle that repeated itself.
A breeze arose from nowhere, fluttering the long hair that draped over Shao Zifeng’s forehead.
Elsewhere.
The sudden turn of events did not draw the attention on the battlefield, where the sounds of explosions and roars covered what had just happened.
Instead, the filming crew and the onlooking crowd were stunned, especially the pioneers who were temporarily drafted to assist with the filming, uncertain if this was part of the script or an accident.
Hu Shiwu and Xiang Nan had grave expressions as they exchanged glances before moving towards the city tower.
The assistant director grimaced and said, "Director, should we stop the shooting?"
The director in front of the monitor seemed oblivious, repeatedly watching the footage that was just shot, trembling with excitement as he murmured, "Good, this shot is so good, so real."
The assistant director clenched his teeth, "Director, what in the world is going on? That’s an S01 Pioneer. If something happens..."
"Shut up." The director suddenly turned and cursed loudly, "If you don’t want to work, get the hell out of here. My team won’t miss you."
His roar silenced everyone around him, and the director’s stern gaze swept over the crowd, "What are you looking at? Get back to work!!"
Hiding behind the crowd, Li Changfeng looked at Shao Zifeng with a vindictive pleasure on his face. He whispered to his phone, "Well done, launch a full attack now, force him to summon the Starlight Queen."
After saying these words, he put down the phone and showed a sinister smile towards the direction of the city tower, then hurriedly walked towards the chaotic crowd.
At the same time, a person cloaked in a cape looked up from within the crowd, and a ghostly purple light shone from under the shadow of his hood.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The earth suddenly shook violently, the performing beasts felt a deep fear emanating from their souls, and the bemused creatures were thrown about by the tumultuous ground, turning the orderly filming set into utter chaos.
Qiuqiu in mid-air sensed the presence of its kin, and its golden-red eyes suddenly looked towards the city tower.
Upon seeing Qiqi in a pool of blood and Shao Zifeng kneeling on the ground, Qiuqiu’s pupils violently constricted.
"Roar!!"
The angry roar of Qiuqiu boomed like thunder, Yaya and the others looked up to see golden mystical runes illuminate Qiuqiu’s forehead, its body rapidly bursting into flames, hovering in the sky like the blazing sun.
The ground heaved like tumultuous waves, and from deep within the earth, mournful cries rang out, deafening to the ear.
Yaya’s forehead runes flickered, the amber vertical pupils glimmered, and its heavy paws stomped down hard on the undulating ground.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The earth before it quieted, fissures spreading out like a fan, innumerable rocks clashing against each other; on the sharp stone blades flowed purple-black blood.
The sudden turn of events plunged the observing Pioneers into a deathly silence, some unsure if this was for the filming or some other reason.
"Hiss~"
After a brief silence, an angry hissing sound came from the ground, and the broken rocks violently surged upward, the dark Scale Armor playing a game of hide and seek among the debris.
Bang!
The mounds of broken rocks exploded one after another, and several bizarre worms emerged from the shattered stones, rising like pillars from the earth.
They had strange appearances, resembling snakes yet also worms, with long bodies covered in dark spiky scale armor, lacking the soft underbelly of snakes or the claws of insects, and further up, the ferocious snake heads sprouted dozens of bone spurs, sending shivers down one’s spine.
The foreign snakes fixed their three pair of cold eyes on Qiuqiu and the others, their lower jawbones slowly splitting apart, revealing a mouth apparatus unlike any snake’s.
"Hiss——"
The round mouthparts bristled with rings of venomous fangs, thousands in number, and they launched an attack.
Yaya and the others, not to be outdone, roared and charged forward to meet the attack.
"Fierce Horn Earth Dragon, it’s the ’Hidden Fang’ Fierce Horn Earth Dragon!!"
"How can it be that madman!"
The Pioneers in the vicinity started to panic, their expressions turning extremely grim.
’Hidden Fang’, ranked S02 among Pioneers.
He was a mysterious and exceedingly vicious individual. Although rarely seen, his infamous reputation among the Pioneers was no less than that of the S01 Duke.
Rumors said that any mission he took on would end with no bodies left intact, whether the target was human or beast, deserved or undeserved death—if he made a move, his methods were said to be brutally vicious, making him a major object of observation for the Pioneers’ Internal Watch.
"Carrion hyenas, come back, come back quickly!!"
Remembering the infamy of ’Hidden Fang’, the Pioneers panicked; they frantically called back their beasts, fearing that any delay would leave only remnants behind.
Of course, there were exceptions, like that director who was too excited to contain himself.
He watched the battle unfolding on the set while yelling into his megaphone, "Quick, quick, turn on all the cameras, I’m going to shoot a film that will shock the world."
