C311 – Laughing at Me

Posted on November 27, 2018 by AzureOrchid92

The teams on boths sides were getting closer.

Peng! Peng! Peng!

Shao Xuan received another round of flying arrows shooting down. He grabbed a few arrows in the air, and shot it back to return, not needing to look at the archer that was shot over there.

As the teams approached, the beasts on both sides had endured, but the bloody smell in the air stimulated their madness. The slaves who had been pulling the beast before, now began to weaken the force of their pull.

The shackled beasts felt the force of the pull reducing, which was like a signal to them, like a horn for attack. Roaring out with fangs and claws out, they rushed towards the other side.

The roar of the beasts was more intense, the sound of their biting covering the slave’s screams. The bloody scent became thicker, and the blood that hit their faces were unknown if it was a companion’s or an enemy’s as it set off on the snow and sand.

Whether on the white snow or yellow sand, blood was splashed everywhere.

However, upon a closer look, the blood were all from the lower level slaves. The more senior slaves did not even shoot themselves and just protected their slave owners, or on the sidelines, seeming like watching a play.

Meanwhile, their masters, the two kings as well as the slave owners, were sitting comfortably on their own riding beasts. There was a good atmosphere going on, strangely like they were just getting a taste of it. Everything that has happened was an appetizer, and the more intense it was, the more they would get a taste of an aged wine.

Blood was nothing but a factor of entertainment.

On the side of Baishi, a fighting beast was put forward. It shook the mane on the side of its neck and lifted its front paws to give a condescending oppression. Inside its mouth was full of blood. Its two sharp teeth were like swords, not letting the other team’s slaves to pass.

While on the Luoye side, there were slaves leading a beast tied on a rope. Their other hands were clenched on a spear trained towards the enemies. They looked almost exhausted as they stabbed out, but the people there still held their spears in the open.

Looking at the two big fangs that were getting closer, the slaves holding the fighting beast thought that they would be bitten to death. However, in the next moment, when the beast from Baishi had jumped up to attack them, they were swept under another shadow from the air. A claw landed on the ground, but the mouth did not opened up to bite the people. Instead, it shoveled a mouthful of sand.

The slaves, who were about to be bitten, were directly knocked down.

This was not the end though. Not waiting for the other beast to have other reactions, it lifted the other up whole, even with five slaves still holding it.

Chacha had just been watching in the air. After watching for a while, it felt its claws itch. Both the arrows and spears were almost used up in the attacks, hence, it quickly rushed over using its claw.

The beast’s size did not exceed Chacha’s maximum capacity. Even though there were five additonal people with it, Chacha still intended to carry them. After carrying the beast, Chacha suddenly threw it off together with those men down to the riding beast that was carrying the king. They were directly thrown to the huge riding beast’s mouth.

The confrontation between the two sides had a silent agreement of not going against the king on both sides. Therefore, the king’s riding beast had no other attackers around it. It seemed to be a tacit understanding that a king’s contest would take place in the Beast City, not in this desolate area where no one could witness.

Hence, at that moment, the huge riding beast was itching to fight as it looked at the battle not far away. It could only vent its rage with a roar several times, but couldn’t go kill those people and beasts. However now, this beast of Luoye City’s king had unexpectedly received goods from that eagle.

The kings’ riding beasts on both sides would not easily join the battle. But for the prey itself tobe delivered to it, what would be its reason not to bite?

In next moment, the one who tried to bite the slave’s beast became the food of this larger beast.

Because of Chacha, a few of the fighting beasts on Baishi’s side had a few scruples. During that attack, they also became distracted as they turned their sights to the sky. This then made their attacks to be unfocused, making Luoye City’s fighting beasts able cause more wounds. They took bites on the necks, which made a lot of blood spatter out. It would seem like they wouldn’t be able to perform their best then in the Beast City. Even if they insist on it, it was impossible for them to fight in this state, or they would be immediately disposed of.

The battle continued as both teams did not stop. Th kings on both sides were also in a mood look openly at each other from dozens of meters away, giving a smile as a greeting.

Shao Xuan blocked an arrow again, then threw it back to the other side. He then had his stare at the people on the other side riding the king’s beast.

The Baishi riding beast was a fierce beast Shao Xuan had never seen. Its body was not covered with ordinary scales, but more like a block of stone, with a thick and short tail on its end. This tail also has a large ball, that when it swung like a heavy hammer and slammed down, snow and sand flew out.

On the riding beast, in addition to the king in a sedan chair, there stood three men.

Shao Xuan didn’t think they were slave owners, but more like slaves guarding the king’s side. One of them had been staring at Shao Xuan too.

Shao Xuan continued looking. That person was a seemingly friendly middle-aged man, not as hostile and wild as the slaves of the other slave owners.

Seeing Shao Xuan still staring, the other side also smiled at him, like a kind elder. In other people’s eyes, it could be a very friendly smile, but Shao Xuan felt that it was a laugh intending to kill.

Dao Yu.

Shao Xuan had never seen Dao Yu before, but at this moment, it made him inexplicable sure that this person was the one he was looking for.

Still, being able to stand on a riding beast was not an unusual position.

The other person swept his eyes to Shao Xuan, Lei and Tuo. Then, he stopped staring at them, and instead turned to look at other places, as if admiring the view.

The riding beasts each went to different directions, while the team continued to move forward. The Baishi beast almost swept its tail on Luoye City’s side as they passed.

After the collision, the two teams gradually separated far away from each other. Meanwhile, the place they had just vacated was the only evidence of the wreckage. Some of the bodies were left there, while others were taken away to be fed to the beasts.

The arrows and broken spears left inserted in the blood-stained ground, not long after, had a layer of white frost.

When the procession was gone and there was only a vague shadow left of it, the scavengers of the desert came out from various places. Birds, beasts, insects, and so on, came to enjoy the meal.

Like any other night, the wreckage here would be divided and eaten cleanly. The wind with snow particles would soon cover the ground, until you could not see a bit of the fight that had just occured.

On this side, Shao Xuan checked the camel and made sure that Mud was not hurt before he jumped over and rode up.

Lei and Tuo’s situation was also a good. Lei’s camel just had an arrow scratch it, but did not hit. However, compared to the Tuo and Shao Xuan, his was slightly worse.

“What’s happened? With your ability, you won’t have missed this arrow.” Tuo asked.

Lei rode on the camel, while he drank water from the mouth of the kettle. His line of sight was taken back from the direction where the Baishi team went, then turned to Shao Xuan and Tuo, “At that time, I felt someone staring at me uncomfortably. Later, I saw him smile at me… I really want to break his neck.”
