Chapter 49: Four Attacks, Successful Hits
The surprise attack succeeded.
A trace of smugness flashed through the mutated Chow Chow's eyes.
It opened its blood-fed jaws, baring its sharp fangs, and lunged fiercely toward Ye Feng, as if determined to swallow him whole.
Nan Shiyin, watching from the side, was struck with sudden terror, her beautiful eyes filled with profound worry.
The mutated Chow Chow clamped down viciously onto Ye Feng's waist, its gaze brimming with excitement.
*Haha, damn human, go to hell!*
In its mind, Ye Feng would be bitten directly in half, sending a geyser of hot, crimson blood spraying everywhere!
It had even planned out its posture for the meal.
First like this, then like that...
With a fierce, powerful thrust... *chomp!*
*Crack!*
*Huh? Why does this taste wrong?*
A flicker of bewilderment crossed the mutated Chow Chow's eyes.
It felt as though it had just bitten down on solid metal!
*My teeth!*
The next moment, a piercing pain shot through its gums. A fracture appeared at the base of its razor-sharp teeth, and a trace of blood began to seep out.
The mutated Chow Chow was completely dumbfounded.
*How can this be?*
The hardness of its teeth far exceeded any metal; they were utterly indestructible.
Ever since its mutation, there was nothing it couldn't bite through.
Subconsciously, the mutated Chow Chow raised its head.
It saw that the human's body was glowing with a faint, dazzlingly bright golden light.
*What on earth is this?*
Enraged and panicked, the mutated Chow Chow instantly retracted its massive head, then stared at Ye Feng with a mixture of shock and suspicion.
Standing nearby, Nan Shiyin let out a long breath of relief, her lovely eyes sparkling with excitement.
Ye Feng wasn't hurt! That was wonderful!
"Brother Feng, go get him!"
Ye Feng frowned slightly.
Why did this ability sound so familiar to him?
Looking directly at the mutated Chow Chow before him, Ye Feng searched through his memories.
Suddenly, a flash of realization crossed his eyes.
*I remember!*
A smile curved the corner of Ye Feng's lips.
*So you're that giant beast with the telescoping head!*
In his previous life, it was this very mutated Chow Chow that had brought humanity no small amount of trouble.
By the time Ye Feng had heard of it, the mutated Chow Chow was already at a very high level.
Its body was as massive as a small hill, a true behemoth.
Not only were its claws razor-sharp and its speed terrifyingly fast, but it also possessed a bizarre ability to stretch its physical body, granting it formidable combat power.
It had entrenched itself in Jiangcheng, running amok.
In the end, it took multiple human powerhouses joining forces to surround and kill it.
He hadn't expected to encounter it right now in this lifetime.
This was a mutated beast with immense growth potential.
Ye Feng suddenly thought of his little sparrow, the one killed by the Zhou family brothers.
Mutated beasts were scarce in number, but as long as they successfully matured, most possessed terrifying combat strength.
Should he take this stupid dog as his mount?
At this thought, Ye Feng said calmly:
"Stupid dog, I know you understand me."
"I'll give you one chance: become my pet."
"Otherwise, you die!"
The mutated Chow Chow looked at Ye Feng with a mixture of wariness and doubt.
It could clearly sense the immense threat Ye Feng posed to it.
Especially that terrifying lightning—it was enough to shatter its defense and take its life.
However, submit to a human?
That was impossible!
A fierce light flashed in the mutated Chow Chow's eyes.
*My hatred for humans is irreconcilable!*
*Besides, my speed is clearly faster than yours.*
*If I really can't beat you, can't I just run away?*
"Roar, roar!"
The mutated Chow Chow let out an angry, defiant roar.
Seeing that the mutated Chow Chow refused to submit, Ye Feng thought for a moment and spoke once more.
"Submit to me, and you live."
"You only get one chance!"
Sensing that this dog possessed decent combat potential, Ye Feng wanted to give it one more chance.
A look of arrogant defiance flashed in the mutated Chow Chow's eyes.
It decided to use action to state its attitude, and teach the man before it a lesson.
The mutated Chow Chow's sharp claws instantly expanded and grew larger, and its canine legs snapped forward with the elasticity of rubber bands.
*Oh no!*
Because Ye Feng had been paying total attention, he spotted the anomaly instantly.
This time, the mutated Chow Chow's target wasn't Ye Feng, but Nan Shiyin, who was watching from the side.
In a split second, the massive claw came crashing down from above. Nan Shiyin was caught completely off guard, frozen in place.
*Bang!*
The air cracked with a violent explosion.
A flash of golden light!
Moving at peak speed, Ye Feng threw himself in front of Nan Shiyin, taking the full brunt of the mutated Chow Chow's ambush head-on.
The mutated Chow Chow's body shook violently, and a blinding pain shot through its claws.
It was completely flabbergasted.
*Why is this so absurd?!*
The human's body was completely unharmed, as unyielding as solid rock.
*Zero damage?!*
A look of sheer disbelief welled up in the canine's eyes.
If it could speak, the mutated Chow Chow would definitely have roared:
*What the hell, he's using a invincibility cheat!*
Only then did Nan Shiyin snap back to reality, realizing that Ye Feng had saved her life from beneath the mutated Chow Chow's claws once more.
Along with lingering fear, a deep surge of gratitude toward Ye Feng welled up in the depths of her heart.
"Ye Feng, thank you for saving me again."
With his back to her, Ye Feng waved a hand.
Yet inwardly, he felt a lingering trace of fear.
Fortunately, he had kept a fraction of his awareness focused on Nan Shiyin, allowing him to pull off that thrilling rescue in the nick of time.
After all, this mutated beast was simply too fast!
If Ye Feng had been even half a beat slower, Nan Shiyin would have been smashed into a pulp by its claws, her life snuffed out prematurely.
At this thought, the gaze Ye Feng cast upon the mutated Chow Chow filled with killing intent.
*Taming failed!*
Ye Feng retrieved the flaming blade into his spatial storage.
With a thought,
*Zzt, zzt, zzt!*
Tendrils of lightning erupted around his body.
Electric arcs danced and crackled loudly.
The mutated Chow Chow felt a jolt in its heart, realizing things were turning south, and immediately turned tail to run.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Ye Feng took a step forward and thrust both hands sharply outward.
*Boom, boom, boom, boom!*
Four massive grey electric arcs—one ahead, one behind, one to the left, one to the right—burst forth from Ye Feng's hands!
Converging from four directions at unimaginable speed, the quadruple lightning assault hurtled straight toward the mutated Chow Chow!
Lightning flashed and crackled wildly!
Facing Ye Feng's multi-directional lightning attack, the mutated Chow Chow was filled with dismay.
A trace of terror surfaced in its human-like eyes.
It roared internally:
*I can dodge this!*
Igniting its potential, it anticipated the trajectory in advance and drove its speed to the absolute limit!
The mutated Chow Chow's massive body abruptly shrank, narrowly dodging Ye Feng's first arc of lightning.
However, the remaining three arcs followed closely behind in a triangular formation.
The mutated Chow Chow rolled violently, narrowly evading the second and third bolts of lightning.
Yet against Ye Feng's fourth divine lightning bolt, evasion was no longer possible.
Ye Feng's gaze was ice-cold.
*With four divine lightning bolts forming a suppression net, where are you going to hide?*
A flicker of helplessness flashed in the mutated Chow Chow's eyes; it had no choice but to take the blow head-on.
Its fur, stiff as steel needles, suddenly bent and intertwined, instantly forming a makeshift barrier of defense.
*I can definitely survive this!*
The mutated Chow Chow roared in its heart.
*Boom!*
The grey lightning arc tore through the sky, slamming ruthlessly into the mutated Chow Chow's body!
The Chaos Divine Lightning successfully hit the mutated Chow Chow!
Electric arcs surged, raging like dragons!
