Chapter 1114: Chapter 1113: Defeat

The beast was not only unaffected by the blizzard but also still had ample energy.

Seeing its prey was delayed in turning around, its wide wings struck at Yanran’s back.

This sudden blow nearly exhausted Yanran’s hard-earned stamina.

With the swing of the beast’s wings, Yanran’s body was flung away.

In the midst of the raging blizzard, Yanran, who had never experienced such weather before, was at a loss.

As she felt colder, it was not just bad luck; an unknown beast discovered her, wanting to take her as its food.

Her already numb body from extreme cold and a dizzy mind faced such fierce opponents, quickly putting Yanran in a position of defending more than attacking.

As her stamina depleted greatly, Yanran increasingly struggled against the beast.

After a failed attack, a flaw exposed by Yanran was seized by her opponent, and the beast’s wings dealt a powerful swipe, driving Yanran away.

Yanran was powerless, lying in the snow, gazing at the continuously falling snowflakes, struggling even to breathe.

The beast’s roar sounded distant, yet she could see its body flying overhead, and even its sharp claws were clearly visible as the beast glared at its prey lying in the snow, flapping its wings, diving from mid-air.

Yanran was unwilling but could barely muster the strength to struggle; she closed her eyes.

A searing flame swept across her face, even scorching a few strands of her hair fluttering in the wind.

Yanran abruptly opened her eyes, the Flaming Firebird had already engaged closely with the beast.

Tears silently streamed down her face.

The Flaming Firebird angrily screeched, relying on its more agile body compared to the beast, always flying a bit higher.

From a higher vantage point, its sharp beak and claws continuously attacked the beast’s back.

When finding the chance, it would also spew flames at its opponent.

Yanran slowly sat up, watching the Flaming Firebird battling with the beast mid-air.

The Flaming Firebird fully dominated, having timely discovered its opponent’s weakness.

Although it could fly, it couldn’t soar high, and its massive size made its actions appear somewhat clumsy.

Quickly, under the Flaming Firebird’s impact, the beast started to show signs of defeat.

It tried to escape, but the enraged Flaming Firebird wouldn’t let it succeed.

It had just realized that this ugly creature before it had knocked its owner to the ground.

No way would it easily let this threat to its owner pass.

Tufts of fur fell from the sky, followed by drops of fresh blood.

Under the Flaming Firebird’s fierce attack, the beast suffered greatly.

No longer confronting its opponent head-on, the beast risked a swipe from the Flaming Firebird to fall to the ground, attempting to escape.

A long trail of flames from the Flaming Firebird thwarted its plans.

Though the beast tried hard to dodge, its tail couldn’t evade in time.

Just a small flame landed on it, but the howling winds didn’t extinguish the fragile ember, instead, they aided its growth.

Within seconds, the ember became flames, engulfing the beast within.

The beast burning issued a piercing roar, rolling in the snow, struggling within the flames, ultimately slowly turning into a pile of ashes.

While the beast was being burned, the Flaming Firebird had landed on the ground, standing not far away, quietly observing until the beast ceased its struggle.

”Alice,” Yanran called the Flaming Firebird.

The once timid bird had become so formidable, the Flaming Firebird’s growth filled Yanran with joy.

”Gawk,” the Flaming Firebird responded to Yanran’s call, flying to her side, extending its wide wings to embrace Yanran, warming her frozen body.

As a Fire Attribute Magic Creature, though the Flaming Firebird also felt discomfort from such extreme cold, its thick feathers and internal fire attribute helped it endure.

In the Flaming Firebird’s warm embrace, Yanran blissfully closed her eyes.

She extended her hand, gently stroking the feathers around the Flaming Firebird’s heart, and the firebird cooed contentedly, turning its back to the wind, shielding Yanran from the chilling cold.

The Flaming Firebird occasionally shook off the snow falling on its body and head, lifting its gaze to the sky.

When Yanran and Ba Lv left the ship, Jiang Cheng was aware.

As Jiang Cheng realized they had been out for quite a while and hadn’t returned, he sensed something was wrong.

Upon opening the spaceship’s door, the cold wind, carrying heavy snow, flooded the ship’s interior space.

Seeing the vast white in front, Jiang Cheng understood that Yanran and Ba Lv couldn’t return because of this black snow.

Jiang Cheng became anxious.

He knew that Yanran and Ba Lv had never experienced such severity.

Though their physiques were extraordinary, under such extreme weather, they might not withstand it.

The snow had buried their tracks, making it impossible to search for Yanran and Ba Lvluo.

Under these circumstances, Jiang Cheng had no choice but to let the Flaming Firebird out, only driving the spaceship in circles at low altitudes from the center searching.

Actually, the spaceship had passed near where Yanran hid, yet the heavy snow made it impossible to see the ship, and with Yanran sheltering under a large stone, Jiang Cheng could not locate her shadow within the ship.

The spaceship’s thermal imager did detect a few heat sources, but upon approaching with hope, Jiang Cheng found they were just wild creatures of this planet.

In this situation, it turned out the Flaming Firebird was more useful, as the spaceship had its flight limits and the Flaming Firebird could fly at any height.

Furthermore, it possessed a vast vision, incredibly sharp eyesight, leading to the Flaming Firebird being the first to find Yanran.

Finally, Jiang Cheng saw the Flaming Firebird’s image on the thermal imager.

Due to the intense fire attribute Magic fluctuations within the Flaming Firebird, it appeared distinctly different from other creatures on the thermal imager.

The Flaming Firebird was on the ground, not flying, indicating it had found Yanran and Ba Lv.

Jiang Cheng felt a surge of joy in his heart, relaxing significantly.

He piloted the spaceship closer to them, and indeed, from mid-air he spotted the Flaming Firebird wrapped in fiery-red feathers amid the vast white landscape.

The spaceship landed, Jiang Cheng jumped out, quickly running toward them.

But as he clearly saw the situation before him, his mood sank.

He saw that the Flaming Firebird, under its wings, protected only Yanran.

Ba Lv was not with Yanran. Weren’t they supposed to venture out together?

Previously, unable to endure the storm, Yanran faced a ferocious beast; despite her utmost resistance, the cold eventually led to her defeat.
