Chapter 416: Hounding

The Bone Worm may not possess an eye, but it managed to turn towards Bi Ling with its jaw wide open—the clear target of its fiery breath attack.

There was a flash of yellow on its side—it was the towering skeleton, Wu Ye, his bone blade coated in a dazzling flash of bright yellow as he aimed for a horizontal slash at the Bone Worm.

These attacks would not inflict any actual harm on the mammoth-sized Bone Worm, but the creature wasn't known for its intelligence. It was unduly distracted by both of its attackers, as it now had no idea which one to focus its ire on. In the end, it made a choice to ignore Bi Ling—who had taken the opening to escape over a distance as he slowly turned invisible—and charged at Wu Ye.

Just as Wu Ye and the crystal skeleton were engaging the gigantic Bone Worm with barrages of distracting attacks, a tenebrous shadow had slowly loomed closer and closer toward the back of the Bone Worm.
