Seeing their tribesmen falling with Casey’s every move, the barbarians nearby were as surprised as they were angry. They pounced forward. No one noticed that fist-sized Horned Bee Beasts had appeared in the treetops and bushes.
Kill!
Casey shouted as he charged toward the nearest barbarian, his heart filled with excitement. He did not expect Yang Ling to come up with such a marvelous plan. If he previously was in awe of Yang Ling’s powerful abilities, he was now convinced of the man’s extraordinary intelligence.
Don’t move, I’ll turn nasty if you move!
Alice clenched her teeth as she tied up the barbarians who had lost their strength. She was excited and nervous when she saw the barbarians, who had arms thicker than her waist. She was afraid that these scary beings would jump up suddenly.
As the chaos continued, the thick smoke in the distance slowly scattered. It was clear that the barbarians’ sacrificial ritual had been disrupted. The more hostages they could tie up now, the more possible saving her grandfather became. Alice became more and more excited, glancing toward Yang Ling in the treetops from time to time.
To Alice, Yang Ling was a mysterious person. She had never seen a Summoner who could summon this many Magical Beasts, nor had she seen a Summoner who would choose to control low level Magical Beasts such as Horned Bee Beasts and Evil Eyes. But without a doubt, Yang Ling’s abilities were alarming, very alarming!
Other than his alarming abilities, Alice had also never seen a man with that black hair and those black eyes. His gaze was sometimes fiery like a ball of flame, sometimes deep like the abyss. But no matter what, Alice could not forget the feeling of his tight embrace, that strange feeling of being flustered and nervous.
In their rage, the barbarians charged over like moths to a flame. But as the road was too narrow, they could only approach two at a time. There was no way for them to take advantage of their numbers. The barbarians behind roared loudly in their anger.
Every time a barbarian charged forward, one of the Horned Bee Beasts that were hiding nearby shot out a near-transparent poison stinger at the critical moment, making their bodies numb before Casey struck them with an axe.
Seeing how powerful Casey was, the violent barbarians were alarmed and angry, but they did not suspect anything in the moment. Just like that, the more barbarians that charged forward, the more hostages they captured. Even Alice’s arms were tired from tying the barbarians up, much less Casey, who was doing battle. Slowly, the casualties of the barbarians increased.
A bunch of fools, stand down, now!
Just as Yang Ling was worried that he would run out of poison stingers, the leader of the barbarians finally arrived with a group of elite guards.
Since we have friends visiting the barbarian tribe, why don’t you show yourselves?
Feeling a large amount of killing intent rushing past him, Yang Ling realized that while he could fool the average barbarian, he could not deceive the wily old fox that was the leader of the barbarians.
Yang Ling had just exposed himself when a messenger beside the leader of the barbarians shivered. He told the leader in fear,
Chief, that’s him. His Magical Beasts destroyed everything!
After escaping with his life, the messenger of the barbarians had fearfully reported the situation to the leader. To him, Yang Ling, who could summon a large number of Magical Beasts to do battle, was a demon. In fact, he might even be more terrifying than a demon.
Horned Bee Beasts that have evolved to the second stage, hmph, so that’s why!
The leader of the barbarians was observant, quickly noticing traces of the Horned Bee Beasts and understanding the secret behind Casey’s power. He stared coldly at Yang Ling.
Just who are you, and why have you come here?
I am Yang Ling, and the reason for me coming here is simple!
Yang Ling laughed coldly and said with a friendly tone,
Hand over your captives, then pay for my losses today, that’s all!
The leader of the barbarians had not said anything when a muscular warrior beside him howled,
Rubbish! Since you dare come here, don’t even think about leaving alive! Asking us to hand over our captives is even more ridiculous, hmph!
Seeing the barbarians who were all talk, Casey and Alice heaved a sigh of relief. Between the shadows of the trees and the story of the mysterious Summoner, it looked like Yang Ling had already struck fear in the hearts of the barbarians before this battle. Otherwise, if it were someone else, the leader of the barbarians might already have attacked them with an army.
Casey and Alice sighed in relief, but the pagoda mark on Yang Ling’s forehead throbbed suddenly. Yang Ling exercised caution and immediately sent a team of Horned Bee Beasts to scout the surroundings. True enough, he soon realized that a large group of barbarians were sneaking over under the water. The other party was using a method of diversion.
Advancing through an unknown path?
Yang Ling let out a cold smile, quickly forming another idea. Since the barbarians were going to use sneaky tactics, he did not mind giving them a surprise.
Sir Yang, since this is the first time we are meeting, let me give you a present. You must accept it!
After hearing the report of the messenger and understanding that the barbarians responsible for the ambush were in position, the leader of the barbarians became confident. He shot a look to the guard beside him and the latter immediately threw a heavy bag toward Yang Ling.
Out of curiosity, Casey took large steps forward and opened the bag. But his face quickly turned pale. He pointed to the barbarians, unable to say anything. Alice looked over in confusion and immediately screamed, her body shivering. In the bag were three bloody human heads, their eyes bulging. They had all died unjustly.
Great, great, great, this present is not bad!
Yang Ling laughed in fury.
I should return a gift. Since it’s the first time we are meeting, I’ll return a small gift to the tribe!
Eye for an eye, blood must be repaid with blood!
After catching the scent of blood, the horde of Horned Bee Beasts became excited. If not for Yang Ling’s control, they would have charged toward the captured barbarians and started tearing their flesh. For revenge, and more to give a threat, Yang Ling did not mind giving the barbarians a display of the Horned Bee Beasts’ power.
Under the confused gazes of the barbarians, Yang Ling softly clapped his hands. In that instant, a large group of Horned Bee Beasts flew out of the treetops and bushes. After circling the air for a moment, they charged toward the captured barbarians.
No… Save me!
Chief, save us…
…
The captured barbarians struggled, but the Horned Bee Beasts latched onto them tightly, tearing away a large amount of flesh whenever they attacked. In the blink of an eye, some of the barbarians rolled on the ground in pain, their intestines spilling out. In fact, some even got devoured in an instant, leaving behind nothing but a few strands of hair.
Seeing the hellish sight before them, hearing the pathetic cries of their clansmen, even the merciless barbarians felt their skin crawl. Even the leader of the barbarians was not spared. Yang Ling’s present was too shocking, and they did not expect that there would be someone more barbaric than them on this continent.
Hmph, let’s see who’ll have the last laugh!
The leader of the barbarians waved his arms after clenching his teeth. In that instant, a large group of barbarians emerged from under the water. They charged toward Yang Ling with their gleaming axes raised high.
Caught off guard, Casey turned pale. He clenched his teeth and charged forward with his ax, determined.
Sir, leave and take Alice, quick!
Sir, what are we going to do?
Alice was dazed. She looked helplessly at the large group of barbarians charging over, not noticing the large group of bloodthirsty Evil Eyes behind her.
It’ll be fine, don’t worry!
Yang Ling carried the scared Alice and said coldly,
There’s a solution to every problem. Since these barbarians are rushing to their deaths, then let us send them on their way!
At the same time, looking at the howling barbarians, Casey felt a mixture of emotions. To think that he would have to meet his maker so soon after being saved by Yang Ling. He so wanted to return home. But if he was to do this again, he would also charge forward without hesitation.
Kill!
Casey lifted the giant ax in his hands high in the air, but he had not struck downward when it happened! Pathetic cries rang out as the barbarians charging toward him were blasted into mush by a condensed webwork of light.
