The Way of The Dao

ROAR!

The Peantre Panther jumped in the direction of Zhang Xinya.

Fortunately, Zhang Xinya barely escaped the bite of the demon beast, jumping a few feet away from it.

Everyone inhaled cold air as they watched Zhang Xinya narrowly avoid the attack of the demon beast.

"I will protect the young miss!"

Zhang Xie spoke when she ran to Zhang Xinya.

Swoosh!

Another of the Peantres panthers jumped in front of her, not willing to let her pass.

The other demon beasts advanced slowly, locking everyone in a circle.

Groar!

Zhang Xinya dodged another attack from the demon beast, but this time, it tore off a portion of her sleeves.

"Young Miss!"

Everyone shouted when they saw Zhang Xinya who was almost hurt.

The two elders and the other woman, tried to face the demon beast that was blocking their way, with the aim that one of them could get out and go to protect Zhang Xinya.

Bam!

A Peantre panther, instantly mobilized its tails, hitting one of them, managing to prevent one of them from escaping.

Zhang Xinya could do nothing but dodge the attack of the demon beast. Defending himself with his spear.

Fwoosh

Bam!

A tail of the Peantre panther, managed to get close to Zhang Xinya's body and hit her.

Zhang Xinya could barely react in time, holding the spear in front of her and using it as a buffer against the blow of the demon beast's tail.

She flew out a few feet, rolling around on the ground a bit while her clothes were being worn and starting to break a bit.

She rose quickly and surveyed her surroundings.

Everyone was surrounded by the demon beasts and could not get out, only defending themselves from any attack they received.

Because 3 elders were in King rank and one in Great Heaven rank, they were able to defend themselves almost successfully from the attacks. Some young people who were in Heaven rank also helped defend themselves and counterattack the weaker demon beasts.

The Panther Peantre who threw herself at her first was the only demon beast that had its fierce eyes on her.

"Young Miss! Run! Don't worry about us! We can still hold out!"

Zhang Li screamed at the top of his lungs, trying to get Zhang Xinya to escape.

Even fighting against 4 demon beasts in King rank, and the others in Great Heaven or Heaven rank, the four elders could still hold out. One could see that their experience in fighting the demon beasts for some years was paying off now.

Zhang Xinya did not want to escape and abandon them. After all, they were part of her family.

Just when she was hesitating, the demon panther lunged at her once more, so she could not help but retreat.

Saving himself by a hair, Zhang Xinya felt that the demon beast gave her no time to rest, so she moved quickly again.

Swoosh

Boom

A tree was split in half by the attack of the demon beast.

Zhang Xinya observed how the four elders looked at her, telling her to escape.

Grrr!

The grunt of the Peantre panther alerted her and she continued to dodge. More and more she seemed to be moving away from the group.

Finally, she decided to escape. She would have to at least hide from the demon beast and then go for help. She trusted her elders and hoped they could hold out for a while before succumbing to the horde.

She had no choice but to infiltrate deeper into the forest to escape the demon beast.

Fwoosh

The demon beast quickly pursued her.

Far from it, the hooded men who controlled the demon beasts were having trouble.

"Shit!"

"I told you the Lord wants us to capture the young miss of the Zhang family!"

"The demon beast does not answer us!"

"Try to regain control!"

"We cannot fail in this important mission!"

Roar!

The demon beast roared fiercely while chasing Zhang Xinya.

Zhang Xinya was running with her life at stake. She knew that if she stopped for a second, the demon beast would kill her instantly.

However, she kept running with all her strength.

Suddenly, she sensed danger, so she did not hesitate and jumped aside.

Swoosh!

The Peantre panther, suddenly appeared where she had been before, with a claw extended, managing to destroy a tree nearby.

Zhang Xinya fell to the side, but there seemed to be no escape.

Behind her, there were some giant stones, like part of a cave. Only there was no entrance for her to hide in.

The demon beast had her against the wall.

Zhang Xinya still held her spear in front of her, so she could not help but hold it tighter.

"I won't die! I have to find a way to escape!"

Despite being scared and very afraid, she still thought of options to escape the demon beast. She didn't want to die alone in the middle of the forest.

The demon beast stood just over 10 meters away from her. It was watching her with those red eyes that conveyed a fierce wild instinct.

Fwoosh!

The demon beast suddenly leapt in her direction.

Zhang Xinya quickly found a space where she could pass.

Underneath the demon beast!

When the demon beast jumped, it was about 2-3 feet off the ground, so she could throw herself under it and escape the attack.

Bam!

Zhang Xinya's body hit and scraped the ground, but she didn't care. The most important thing now was to escape.

Suddenly.

Fwoosh!

Rash!

Bump!

"Aaaargh!"

Zhang Xinya had managed to get under the demon beast, but what she did not count on was that the Peantre Panther used its tails to attack her when she dodged its attack from below, managing to hit her and tear off her clothes, destroying the upper half of her garments.

The blow received by the tails of the demon beast sent her flying and impacted her against a tree, causing internal injuries and some blood to slide down the corner of her mouth.

Zhang Xinya barely managed to sit up, resting her back against the tree, holding her big bare peaks with one arm, and with her other hand grasping half of her shattered spear, while watching the demon beast slowly approach her.

"Am I really going to die?"

She thought when she saw that the demon beast was close enough to jump on her and kill her.

ROAR!

The demon beast jumped up at her with a big mouth and intended to bite her.

Zhang Xinya could not help but close her eyes, hoping for her imminent death.

Swoosh!

Slash!

Five seconds passed and she felt nothing, therefore she could not help but open her eyes.

"Ah!"

Zhang Xinya shouted when she saw the face of the demon beast in front of her.

But the demon beast did not move. It was like a statue.

Crack!

Just as she wondered what was happening, she immediately watched as the demon beast broke in two and slowly fell to the ground.

She was stunned when she saw the demon beast die like that.

When the big body of the demon beast split and fell to the side, she could see a young man holding a sword in his hand behind the body of the demon beast.

The young man looked very handsome.

His pearly black eyes were calm while he watched her. Along with his expressionless face, it made him look as if he had not killed the demon beast before and was just a normal passerby.

BADUMP! BADUMP!

She felt her heart beat wildly while watching her savior. She engraved his figure deeply into her heart without realizing it. Her mind was focused only on the young man in front of her without thinking of anything else.

The young man showed a gentle smile while saying, "Don't worry, you're all right now..."
