Phoenix Emperor
Chap 17's. Hunt III
Half an hour later, the dozens of spiritual beasts that surrounded them had finally been defeated, and they were currently resting to recover the power that had been drained.
"Feng Huang, rest for a while, you also need to recover your strength."
Yin Feng shook his head slowly, "i'm fine."
"Are you sure? I mean, you took over half of them" Ye Han said.
Compared to all of them, Yin Feng was the one who killed the spiritual beasts the most, but strangely Yin Feng did not feel the slightest fatigue.
Normally, it is impossible for someone not to feel tired after fighting against many enemies, willing to be as strong as his strength, he will definitely need a break even if only for a moment.
"Don't worry, I'm fine" Yin Feng said.
"Alright, I won't force you anymore, but there's something I want to tell you."
Before continuing his words, Ye Han called the other disciples to come closer, including Qian Zhou who seemed to be holding back the irritation within him.
"Feng Huang, we've all agreed to make you the head of this group."
"Why should I? Hasn't Qian Zhou already volunteered before?"
"Among all of us, only you deserve to be the chairman" He Jin said.
"That's right! Moreover, we need a reliable chairman" Yan Baihu added.
Yin Feng fixed his gaze on Qian Zhou. "I want to hear your opinion."
"As for you, but I won't follow anyone's orders!" qian Zhou.
Yin Feng let out a long breath. "Alright, then I'll be the leader of this group."
After that, Yin Feng decided to continue the journey after sunrise, because other than still needing a break, continuing the journey would only endanger their lives.
"Rest me, I'll keep watch tonight."
"Good!" they said all in unison, except Qian Zhou who preferred to be quiet.
"You may ignore me, but after returning to the sect later, I will definitely make all of you suffer!"

The days passed, the journey of Yin Feng and his group members continued, despite the obstacles that came their way, yet they were able to solve it easily.
Moreover, their group had also obtained quite a number of soul crystals, but the number was still not enough to make them the winners in the hunting event.
"Chairman, it looks like there's a fight ahead."
Yin Feng nodded. "You're right, then what should we do?"
"What if we observe it? If possible, we'll just take their soul crystals."
"I agree!"
"If it's possible, why not?"
"Alright, let's grab their soul crystals!" yin Feng said, then led his group members to approach the source of the battle voice.
Not far from where Yin Feng and his group were, a group of cultivators appeared to be facing off against a three meter tall lion, he was a tier one spiritual beast.
The group seems to have difficulty facing the fire lion, although the number of members of their group is quite large, but their strength is not comparable to the fire lion.
"Be careful!"
Dhuayar!
A powerful explosion occurred when the fire lion launched an attack with its front legs, three young men were thrown five meters because they could not avoid the fire lion attack.
"Chairman, we must leave this place, otherwise we will all die in his hands!"
"I know that, but what about our wounded friends? There's no way we're just leaving them!"
"Chairman, he's coming!" said one member of the group.
"Make a defensive formation!"
The members who could still fight then gathered, then formed a defensive formation to withstand the fire lion's attack, however, their defenses were destroyed in a single strike.
"Ga-gawat, I-I can't move."
Dhuayar!
A massive explosion suddenly occurred where the fire lion was, without anyone knowing the cause, the fire lion suddenly was thrown for several meters.
"W-what happened?"
"Chairman, it looks like someone's in there."
The leader of the group focused his gaze towards the flying dust, he faintly saw the silhouette of someone standing where the fire lion was before.
"Who is he?"
***
After arriving at that place, Yin Feng asked his group members to hide and observe the situation, yet they were instead startled by the figure of the fire lion who was a second level spiritual beast.
At first, they had intended to snatch the other participants' soul crystals, but upon seeing the situation, they instantly undo their intention to snatch the group's soul crystals.
"Chairman, what should we do now?"
"For now, we just need to observe their fight."
"Great, they're in danger!" said Ye Han.
"Chairman, do something!" sahut He Jin's.
Yin Feng let out a long sigh, then darted at high speed towards the fire lion. After which, Yin Feng landed a crushing blow on the head of the fire lion and managed to get it thrown.
"Groarrr!!" the fire lion looked furious as Yin Feng foiled his attack.
"Just be!" said Yin Feng who was ready to welcome the fire lion attack.
Feeling challenged by Yin Feng's words, the fire lion immediately shot forward towards him. After the distance of the two was close enough, the fire lion then jumped up to pounce on Yin Feng.
"You made a mistake!" Yin Feng raised the corner of his lips, then darted forward while swinging his dagger.
A slash!
With the silver dagger that had been coated by spiritual energy, Yin Feng managed to leave quite a deep wound on the body of the fire lion.
A moment after, Yin Feng stopped his steps and immediately jumped into the air, then launched his second attack towards the neck of the fire lion.
However, the attack was successfully avoided by the fire lion, its extremely agile movements also made it easier for him to launch a counterattack using his claws on Yin Feng.
Yin Feng twisted his body and greeted the fire lion attack with his dagger, after successfully resisting his attack, Yin Feng launched a kick into the body of the fire lion.
Wosh.
Dhuayar!
The fire lion was thrown back up to several meters away, several large trees were immediately knocked down by being hit by its enormous body.
Not wanting to waste a chance, Yin Feng darted back towards the fire lion, then he landed slashes repeatedly all over the body of the fire lion.
After landing the slash for the umpteenth time, Yin Feng suddenly stopped his movement, then he leaped into the air and aimed an attack towards the neck of the fire lion.
Wosh.
Dhuayarrr!
An enormous aura emanated from the body of the fire lion, at the same time, the entire body of the fire lion was enveloped by a reddish glow that was as hot as a blaze.
The Yin Feng who was nearby was made to be thrown due to the explosion of the aura of such power. "Cihh.. It turns out he can still survive!"
Meanwhile, the previous group and Yin Feng's friends seemed to be unable to move, as their bodies were all overwritten by the immense pressure of intimidation.
In addition, the heat coming from the aura of the fire lion also burned everything around it, even the heat until it could be felt by the group of Yin Feng who was quite a distance away from it.
Unlike all of them, the aura of intimidation was not felt by Yin Feng, nor did the heat have any impact on him.
"Thanks to green fire, my body has resistance to heat" Yin Feng murmured.
