CREAK!
Something truly unusual happened next. The arm of lightning lunged, not just at Xiao Ming, but at the goat-faced leopard and Xue Mao too.
A sealing cage descended from the skies shortly after, imprisoning all three within its shimmering bars. In the blink of an eye, the trio, along with the sealing cage, vanished from sight.
Zhou Mei, still reeling from the shock of what had just transpired, walked to the spot where Xiao Ming, Xue Mao, and the beast had been. All that remained was a half-dead Blood Ant.
"A Blood Ant survived this throng of lightning?" Zhou Mei questioned in her heart.
This chilling lightning seemed capable of piercing through rocks and mountains alike—yet a creature as small as this Blood Ant had survived.
It was still crackling lightly and twitching due to the exhaustion it suffered when the bolt of lightning sapped its energy source, its very blood.
However, a truth struck her. This was Xiao Ming's doing.
