Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Zhang Fei laughed softly, and he scratched the back of his head. He did intend to prevent Shen Yu from descending into the crater, as he did not want her to be hurt by the Boitata. 'I don't want anything to happen to her, Mei.'

"Tsk, we're late; they've gone down to the crater first." One of the Yin-Yang Pavilion's male disciples said.

Then another male disciple complained. "It's all your and Ning Xiang's fault, Luo Hai!"

They looked at the male disciple with a frown, then Ning Xiang refuted him. "Why are you blaming us, Xie Gang? It's because you've been dual cultivating with Du Yuan for too long!"

"You-"

"Enough!" Shen Yu finally spoke up. "You guys stop blaming each other and quickly enter the crater!"

"Humph!" Ning Xiang and Xie Gang snorted at each other, then they jumped down into the crater with their respective dual cultivation partners.

Shen Yu shook her head, then she enveloped her body with her Qi, but just as she was about to jump down into the crater, she suddenly felt a strong pressure on her bloodline, and the pressure forced her to kneel down with one foot on the ground. 'What is going on? Why does my bloodline feel pressured?'

"You don't need to be confused, Shen Yu."

Hearing that, Shen Yu turned her head to the side, and she saw Zhang Fei walking leisurely towards her. She then raised her eyebrows, because she could feel that his cultivation was only at 1 Star Foundation Realm, yet the aura emitting from his body suppressed her bloodline. 'Is he a beast with a bloodline higher and stronger than mine?'

As he arrived in front of her, Zhang Fei retracted his Heavenly Fox aura and stretched out his hand to her, as he sincerely said. "I'm really sorry, Shen Yu. But I was forced to do this to prevent you from descending into the crater, because I really don't want to see you hurt."

Shen Yu was stunned by Zhang Fei's words, but she could sense that he was speaking sincerely, and she did not feel any malicious intent from him either. Then she took his hand and rose from the ground, as she asked. "What do you mean by that? And how do you know my name?"

"I also know that you are a sea serpent, Shen Yu." She froze hearing that, because no one had ever known that she was a beast, but before she could ask him, Zhang Fei had spoken again. "I don't know about your relationship with the Yin-Yang Pavilion, but I won't let you risk your life for them, because there is a beast much stronger than you in the crater."

"What!? Is that true?" Shen Yu exclaimed as she looked at Zhang Fei in disbelief, then she suspiciously asked. "If there really is a powerful beast in the crater, then why don't you stop them?"

"Because their lives are none of my business." Zhang Fei shrugged nonchalantly, then he looked at Shen Yu and confessed bluntly. "But you are different from them; I want you to be my partner, so I don't want to see you get hurt."

Shen Yu was stunned when she heard Zhang Fei's words, as she was unable to respond. She didn't even know him, and this was also their first meeting, but he immediately confessed to her like that.

He caressed her cheek with his hand; strangely, Shen Yu did not intend to push his hand away. He then seriously spoke. "Anyway, my name is Zhang Fei. I really want you to be my partner, and we will grow stronger together."

Shen Yu continued to be silent, and she looked at Zhang Fei with wide eyes, as she didn't know what to say to him.

*Boom!*

Suddenly, there was a loud explosion from inside the crater, then Zhang Fei grabbed Shen Yu and carried her away from the edge of the crater using his teleportation ability.

Shen Yu finally asked. "Actually, what kind of beast is in the crater, Zhang Fei?"

"Dragon Serpent Boitata is a divine beast, and its cultivation is in the 10 Star Heaven Realm." Zhang Fei replied as his eyes focused on the crater.

Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, then she exclaimed in shock. "Are you joking with me, Zhang Fe?"

Zhang Fei answered her by shaking his head. "I'm not joking with you; Boitata is truly a divine beast."

Inside the crater

Gu Zhan crawled backwards in fear, as his four fellow disciples were turned to ashes by Boitata's fire breath, and the Desolate Sect disciples also suffered the same fate as them.

"Damn it!" Zhang Lingxue cursed as she shielded the terrified Chang Wenjie and Cheng Wenhao behind her. "How can there be a Divine Beast in this place? Moreover, its cultivation is in the 10 Star Heaven Realm."

But suddenly they smelled urine, and they turned to Chen Wenhao, who wet his pants. Seeing that, Zhang Lingxue shook her head, and Chang Wenjie exclaimed in disdain. "You are so disgusting, brother!"

Chang Wenhao paid no heed to his little sister's words, as he continued to stare at the humongous snake in front of him with his body shaking violently. Moreover, the figure of the snake was truly terrifying; its body was filled with many eyes.

On the other side, the Hai twins' expressions were really ugly, and they also felt the horror of Boitata's presence. They then looked around looking for Zhang Fei, but they couldn't find him.

"That young man has tricked us, Dongxin. He must have known that this Divine Beast resided in this crater, but he deliberately didn't tell us about it." Hai Dongyin said this as she gritted her teeth.

"Yes, but we can't blame him either, since we're all competing for the Fire Yang Flower." Hai Dongxin said with a nod, as her eyes continued to stare at Boitata with worry and high vigilance, as she occasionally glanced at the Fire Yang Flower, which was surrounded by Boitata. "Now we have to figure out how to pick that flower."

"I think we should back off, Dongxin." Hai Dongyin spoke seriously. Although she really wanted to get the Fire Yang Flower, but she felt that the flower was not worth her life, especially since Boitata was much stronger than them.

Hai Dongxin was silent and thought for a while, then she sighed and spoke. "You're right, we better back off, Dongyin."

But just as they were about to retreat, suddenly a large rock fell on Boitata's head, and four people rolled down from above.

It enraged the Boitata, and it spit fire from its big mouth. "Hiss~ I will definitely kill all of you!"
