After releasing the Fire Woman’s Incarnation, Huang Yi quickly left the place, returning to the room outside. He closed the wooden panel again, locking the Incarnation of the Fire Woman inside.
Huang Yi seed to be able to foresee the next ti the Half-beast Chieftain would open the cellar, that splendid expression on his face.
"Brother Yi, why do I sense a cunning look on your face?" Qin Shiyu asked in a lowered voice upon seeing Huang Yi erge.
"I’ve sent them a grand gift. The next ti they open the cellar, they’ll see my sincerity," Huang Yi said with a sinister smile, taking Qin Shiyu’s delicate hand, and quietly jumped out the window.
By now, they could not afford to wander aimlessly. Qin Shiyu couldn’t Transform, and it was utterly impossible for a living person of her size to leave the central area of the tribe without drawing attention. They could be discovered at any mont.
"Hold tight to , we’re going to fly out!" Huang Yi instructed Qin Shiyu, and suddenly with a "whoosh," a pair of black wings unfurled from his back, like a dark Angel. Pure darkness radiated from the wings, each feather sharp as a blade.
These wings had been taken from a Level 150 Birdman and attached to his Incarnation. Now, they were proving extrely useful for the first ti.
With a flap of his black wings, Huang Yi created a gentle breeze that swiftly carried both him and Qin Shiyu up into the nightti sky, vanishing from their original spot.
Huang Yi flew high, almost reaching the clouds. The ground below was mostly concealed by the forest canopy, and it was very difficult for anyone looking up to spot them in the high skies.
Below in the forest, one could still see the movent of torches, and the distant sounds of tumult and fighting indicated that the Half-Beastn were still busy hunting down the Incarnations of criminals, unaware of how many had already perished.
Thus, Huang Yi successfully escaped with Qin Shiyu, against all odds.
...
"Brother Yi, how do you have so many abilities?" Qin Shiyu, clinging tightly to Huang Yi high in the sky, looked up at him with admiration in her eyes.
"You’re holding on so tightly, I can hardly fly," Huang Yi’s body trembled slightly, even disturbing the rhythm of his flight.
"Alright, I’ll stop teasing you," Qin Shiyu relaxed her grip a bit, her tone apologetic, "Brother Yi, this was all because of this ti!"
Huang Yi shook his head: "It was unavoidable. The enemy can’t confront openly and must target those around to lure out. Among the people close to , you are the most obvious target. You have a high Level, and if you were to die and go through Reincarnation, the loss would be huge, so I had to save you." He paused before continuing, "Moreover, I have a feeling this won’t be the last ti. You might be kidnapped again and it could happen to Xiao Chunzi too. You both need to be ntally prepared, unless you both leave my side."
"I will never leave you. If soday you can’t save , let die! After all, if I die the loss can be accepted, but if you die, the loss would be too great. You and Number Two are the most important mbers of our team," Qin Shiyu added, as if suddenly rembering sothing and quickly asked, "By the way, Number Two wants to know when he can reveal his identity?"
After a mont of contemplation, Huang Yi said, "Number Two is our biggest trump card and can’t be revealed lightly. Let’s wait until the national war."
"Okay!" Qin Shiyu nodded, looking up at the starry sky and sighing, "If Brother Three and Brother Eight were still alive, we would have two more trump cards."
"From the mont we started down this path, death has been with us. We are always dancing on a knife’s edge, a mont’s inattention could an death." Huang Yi held Qin Shiyu close, gazing into her eyes and spoke earnestly, "Xiao Yu, you must be careful when you’re on a mission. I don’t want, when I leave Rose Prison, to only buy a bouquet of roses to place on your grave, rembering how you once were."
"I will protect myself. I want to see you walk out of Rose Prison with my own eyes."
...
After a long flight, the two finally left the range of the Bloodthirsty Forest.
They landed swiftly, got on their respective mounts, two swift Earthwalking Dragons, and raced under the huge bright moon. They did not encounter any further trouble and made it safely back to Dragon City.
"Sunset, how is the assembly of your troops going?" Back in Dragon City, Huang Yi imdiately sent a ssage to Sunset.
"Notices were sent out today, and the various group leaders are arranging troops. We should be able to muster about 500,000 to set off the day after tomorrow. Also, the logistics departnt under Little Riddler’s command should be ready with all the supplies by the day after tomorrow," Sunset replied promptly, providing Huang Yi with a progress update.
Huang Yi nodded; Sunset worked even faster than he expected. They would just have to wait until the day after tomorrow to go to war and flatten that Half-Beast Tribe.
...
anwhile, in the distant Bloodthirsty Forest.
The last Incarnation of a criminal was finally smashed into nothingness by the Half-beast Chieftain.
They had paid a terrible price in the battle but gained no benefits. The Incarnations released by Huang Yi upon death brought no rewards. Had they been the criminals’ true selves, their deaths would have left behind powerful bodies to compensate for their losses.
"What are our casualties?" the Chieftain asked a Level 80 Half-beast, his face clouded with frost.
The Level 80 Half-beastman stepped forward timidly, answering respectfully, "Report to Chieftain, tonight’s known casualties are as follows: Elders Midnight, Mo Ye, Chill Night, Hanye, and Yuye all fell in battle, High Priest Dong Ye died in combat, White Night’s Grand Shaman is gravely injured, and another approximate 130,000 tribe warriors have died..."
"Thump!" The Half-Beast Chieftain’s Wolf Fang Club violently stabbed into the ground, creating a deep pit, revealing the anger within his heart, while all the surrounding Half-Beastn started shivering in fear.
When the Chieftain got angry, no one could stand against it!
The Chieftain looked around and, exerting the strength of a Holy Domain Warrior, shouted loudly, "Instakill, I know you’re still hiding in this forest. Now I’m giving you one last chance. Hand over the Soul Prelude quickly, or I’ll go kill Qin Shiyu right now. If she reincarnates, it will be very difficult for you to see her again!"
Throughout the entire Bloodthirsty Forest, this voice could be heard everywhere. More than a million Half-Beastn listened to this voice with stifled anger, their whole tribe thrown into chaos by Huang Yi alone!
At this very mont, everyone wished they could eat his flesh and drink his blood alive.
"You won’t co out? Fine! I’m going to kill Qin Shiyu right now. From now on, our tribe will fight you to the death!" The Tribe Chieftain squeezed these words out through clenched teeth and strode towards the cellar, with the surrounding group of Levels 80-90 Half-Beastn quickly following.
At this mont, the air in the Bloodthirsty Forest seed to freeze. The Tribe Chieftain was thoroughly enraged; they were going to seek wild revenge!
Very soon, the Tribe Chieftain led all the experts from the tribe, fiercely arriving in front of the wooden hut where Qin Shiyu was held. The Chieftain did not even enter through the door but directly smashed the wall of the hut with his club, stepping over the ruins and walking in.
"Hmm? The guard left without permission! Death Penalty!" The Chieftain, seeing no one inside, roared in anger.
The Half-Beastn who were originally guarding this place had been killed by Huang Yi, not even leaving any corpses behind, without any traces left, The Chieftain just thought they had left on their own.
The Chieftain went straight to the other wall and triggered the wooden panel chanism.
The next mont, the engraved wooden panel covering the entrance to the cellar automatically opened, revealing a staircase leading down into the darkness.
"Instakill, next you will hear Qin Shiyu’s screams of agony," the Chieftain cruelly chuckled, then turned to a Level 80 Half-Beastman expert and ordered, "Yun Ye, enter and use the most brutal thods to kill Qin Shiyu, then bring her body up here."
"Yes!" That Half-Beastman expert nodded and imdiately entered the cellar, his tall and majestic body completely vanishing from the sight of the others outside.
The rest did not go in, all gathered outside. The Chieftain, however, turned his head looking around. He wanted to use the death of Qin Shiyu to force Huang Yi to appear.
At that mont, the surrounding forest was dead silent; the night wind blew, rustling the leaves, carrying a sense of urgency, uncertain where Huang Yi was hiding.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!" Just then, a violent commotion of combat suddenly ca from the cellar, traveling through the thick soil to the surface, and the whole earth seed to be having an earthquake, shaking slightly.
"Instakill, do you hear that? With such a loud noise coming from the cellar, it’s evident how fiercely Qin Shiyu is being assaulted. If you don’t co out now, there won’t be even a complete corpse left of her!" the Chieftain shouted loudly, luring Huang Yi out.
But the surroundings were still deathly quiet, with no one appearing.
At this mont, the commotion from the cellar ceased, and everything returned to calm.
Everyone waited patiently, their eyes fixed on the dark entrance of the cellar, waiting for Yun Ye to bring out Qin Shiyu’s body.
Ti ticked by, but still no one ca out of the cellar, making the atmosphere on the ground grow eerie.
The Chieftain too started to feel sothing was amiss, and he personally stepped into the dark cellar.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!" Soon enough, the cellar was once again filled with a violent noise of combat, the shaking of the earth seed even more intense as if the mountains were collapsing and the ground splitting apart.
"Could the Chieftain be flogging a corpse?" At this, a Level 90 Half-Beastman expert outside could not help furrowing his brow.
"To flog a corpse with such violence, it shows how furious the Chieftain must be. After so many years, this is the first ti I’ve seen the Chieftain so enraged! Instakill has really sought his own death this ti. In the future, we must kill him and all related to him, leaving none alive," another Half-Beastman expert said through gritted teeth.
"Ahh!" Suddenly, a hysterical scream from the Chieftain echoed from within the cellar, traveling up through the thick soil.
"Sothing’s wrong below!" Instantly, all the Half-Beastn on site were shocked, their gaze fixed intently on the ground beneath their feet.
At that mont, the ground shook violently, uncertain what was happening within the cellar below.
"Boom!" Just then, the ground caved in, the noises from the cellar finally reaching a critical point that caused the collapse of the entire cellar, sending the group of Half-Beastn standing above plumting down.
Within the cellar was now a sea of fire, and amidst those flas, one could vaguely see a woman whose body scorched with fire, her gaze void of any emotion. (To be continued.
