Chapter 81: The 1st Soul Qi Pet

Hearing the cries of the Ice Simurgh behind him, Li Heng couldn't help but feel relieved. 'Good thing I hit and ran. Otherwise, from the looks of it, I'd have been in for a bitter fight!'

A cornered beast will put up a desperate fight. If you push an animal too far, its final, dying counterattack is no joke. Even a rabbit will bite when cornered.

Let alone a Tier Two High-Grade Soul Beast like the Ice Simurgh!

Li Heng knew that if he stayed, the Ice Simurgh would surely die, but he might get injured in the process. So, he decided to play it safe.

'A little strategic retreat!'

'I've already crippled the Ice Simurgh. Once I've recovered, I can go back and finish it off easily. Wouldn't it be better to avoid any risk of injury?'

All things considered, especially with the sorrowful cries of the Ice Simurgh echoing behind him, Li Heng felt his decision to retreat had been exceptionally wise.

However, the Ice Simurgh's cries didn't last long before they slowly faded away.
