The Carnage Poisonous Salamander could not defend itself in time. It vomited the poison in its mouth at the Flying Creek Snow Wolf after suffering serious injuries.
The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was surprisingly agile, and did not pause after he was done with the attacks. He jumped into the air and landed on a branch with an easy hop.
The poison scattered into the air. The Flying Creek Snow Wolf jumped between the branches continuously, waiting until the poison had dissipated to dive straight down at the Carnage Poisonous Salamander. His white body stabbed right at the Carnage Poisonous Salamander like an icy fang!
The Carnage Poisonous Salamander tried to move aside, but struggled to dodge the Flying Creek Snow Wolf’s powerful lunge. The icy fang landed on the Carnage Poisonous Salamander fiercely, and frost began to spread rapidly inside the Carnage Poisonous Salamander’s body.
The Carnage Poisonous Salamander’s insides were severely injured. It shook its body vigorously, trying to shake the Flying Creek Snow Wolf off.
The creature darted toward the water after it broke free from the Flying Creek Snow Wolf, leaving the wood of red flowers before the Flying Creek Snow Wolf could catch up to it.
The Flying Creek Snow Wolf did not chase it any further, merely howling after the fleeing Carnage Poisonous Salamander.
The howl triggered the frost inside the Carnage Poisonous Salamander’s body. Sharp icicles suddenly burst out of the Carnage Poisonous Salamander while it was still running!
The Carnage Poisonous Salamander did not run far after the icicles punched holes all through its body. Its blood spread across the ground!
The creature was using all its might to flee towards the water, but it stopped moving when around a hundred meters from the lake. Its insides were punctured by the icicles, while its body was covered in gashes. It was already surprising it had lived that long. If it had been a weaker creature, it would have died instantly when the icicles burst out of it!
The Carnage Poisonous Salamander lay unmoving on the ground. Its blood flowed down the slope into the lake, dyeing the water red.
The Foehn Hunter Squad stood a distance away. They had witnessed the whole fight, but none of them were making a sound.
The Flying Creek Snow Wolf made sure that the Carnage Poisonous Salamander was dead. He did not bother wasting his time on the dead body that was full of poison, and backed away languidly.
The Foehn Hunter Squad remained as still as ice statues when the Flying Creek Snow Wolf passed them!
“That…that’s it?” Zhong Li stammered.
It was a Commander-level creature! How did the wolf kill it like a chicken?
They had often fought against the Lizard Demons. There was no chance they would not recognize a Commander-level creature like the Carnage Poisonous Salamander. It was a nightmarish existence to the Foehn Hunter Squad, yet it was killed by the wolf in just a few minutes!
“Fan Mo’s Summoned Beast… is a Great Commander-level creature!” Xie Hao said slowly.
“No, it’s more than that, there’s no way a Great Commander-level creature could kill a normal Commander-level creature so easily!” Gu Ying said.
Dimensional Summoning was only the Basic Spell of the Summoning Element. Most Summoners only treated their Summoned Beasts as cannon fodder. It was impressive if a Summoner just had a Warrior-level Summoned Beast.
Along the journey, Big Nose kept complaining about Fan Mo not sending his Contracted Beast with them, only giving them his Summoned Beast. He was obviously looking down on them.
They did not expect the Summoned Beast to be so strong. As a matter of fact, they were having trouble accepting it!
The Carnage Poisonous Salamander was the kind of creature that they would not want to encounter for the rest of their lives. The poisonous Commander-level creature could wipe out a Hunter Squad like them like it was killing a bunch of sparrows.
But the terrifying creature was killed by another beast in such a short period, and that creature was only someone’s Summoned Beast, the kind usually Summoned just to do some simple errands!
“Wolf…Wolf Grandpa, can…can we loot the creature…creature’s dead body?” Zhong Li finally gathered his courage and asked the Flying Creek Snow Wolf after he regained his thoughts.
The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was able to understand him. He glanced at the creature’s dead body indifferently. He simply let out a huge yawn, showing that he had no interest in it.
“Thank you, Wolf Grandpa!” Zhong Li blurted out excitedly.
My Heavens, that is the dead body of a Carnage Poisonous Salamander! Even if it does not have any mutated bones, claws, or blood, it would still have plenty of valuable loot, especially ingredients to make an antidote for its poison!
Zhong Li’s mentor had not been cured of the poison, mainly because they did not know anyone that was capable of killing the Carnage Poisonous Salamander. However, one’s dead body was now lying right in front of him. He finally had a chance to save his mentor!
“What are you all waiting for? Come give me a hand, let’s carry the dead body back!” Zhong Li exclaimed.
Xie Hao and Big Nose came back to their senses. They immediately asked the other teammates to help them move the Carnage Poisonous Salamander’s body.
“Strange, there are so many dead bodies from the Lizard Demons here, yet there was only a Carnage Poisonous Salamander. Did it wipe out the entire population on the island?” Gu Ying began to think the situation through after calming herself down.
Gu Ying checked the island thoroughly again. She also checked the part of the island that was submerged.
However, apart from a few Salamander Demons clinging to the edges of the island, she did not find anything out of ordinary. She had no choice but to follow the rest of the team as they took the Carnage Poisonous Salamander’s carcass with them.

“I’m starting to believe Fan Mo’s strength!” Xie Hao blurted out.
“Me too, this wolf… he’s too strong! I don’t think it would take him more than a minute to wipe out our whole squad,” Zhong Li cautiously looked at the Flying Creek Snow Wolf lying at the front of the boat.
“A minute is too long,” Gu Ying agreed with a wry smile.
“Boss, Fan Mo seems really strong. I think he was pretty kind to you. Didn’t you always say you were thinking of prostituting yourself? Why don’t you offer him instead? Perhaps our Foehn Hunter Squad can finally free ourselves from our current pitiful situation,” Zhong Li jibed.
“If he really is that capable, I doubt he’s going to accept leader’s offer even if she’s willing! Boss keeps saying it, but she actually sees her integrity as more important than anything else!” Xie Hao burst out laughing.
“Piss off, aren’t you men embarrassed asking me to sacrifice my body so you could enjoy the benefits!?” Gu Ying cursed him back.
