Eternal Life Starts as a Hunter
Chapter 503 - 168: Since You See the Barbarian King, Why Do You Not Bow?
"Yeah, those who stayed in the Frozen Soil must be regretting it now, hahaha!"
"Zhenyan Xiong didn’t come, is he still thinking about that letter from last month?"
"I know, he got scared silly by their Grand Elder." A rather handsome Clan Leader laughed, "I found out that Zhenyan Yuan is just an outsider who took a clan woman as his own. Such a person also wants to comprehend the secrets of fire? Also wants the blessings of the Divine Spirit?"
This was the Clan Leader of the White Deer Clan — Bailu Feng.
On the other side, a man with a giant axe by his side and a muscular face rudely groped a beautiful woman while eating meat, grunted, "Zhenyan Xiong is old, he’s no good anymore. It’s his bad luck to have given an outsider the clan’s surname and even made him the Grand Elder. If it were in my Hongjing Clan, and he dared to show off, I would take his woman right in front of him, hahaha!"
This was the Clan Leader of the Hongjing Clan — Hongjing Kun.
"Come, come, why talk about such buzz-killing stuff, have another drink!" A robust man with skin resembling fiery metallic luster grabbed a wine jar.
This was the Clan Leader of the Tongrong Clan — Tongrong Hu.
The other few also raised their wine jars, laughing heartily.
Just at that moment, the beautiful woman who was being abused by Hongjing Kun suddenly spat out something quickly, which went directly into Hongjing Kun’s open mouth, along with his wine into his throat.
The scene happened abruptly.
Hongjing Kun was startled, stood up suddenly, and threw the woman hard on the ground, then began to vomit the wine.
These barbarians were fearless by nature, but ever since over four hundred of them were poisoned to death by the Tang Sect, they began fearing poison.
In their impression, these outsiders were exceedingly weak, easily breakable, but like the most dreadful snakes on the Frozen Soil, a sudden bite could be lethal.
"Poisoning, you dare poison me!!"
Hongjing Kun angrily tore off one of the woman’s arms, then grabbed her neck and charged to the railing of the Star-Picking Tower, holding her outward.
The woman’s arm was newly severed, her feet dangling, struggling in pain, and below her was nearly ten stories of height.
"Take out the antidote! Or I’ll smash you into minced meat." Hongjing Kun roared.
Despite her pain, she coldly stared at him.
Blood flowed from her severed arm, her entire body convulsed with pain, yet she still coldly stared at the barbarian before her.
Unfortunately, as time passed, a long and thin fart sound suddenly came from behind Hongjing Kun...
Afterward, this barbarian rubbed his stomach and suddenly laughed, "Alright, it no longer hurts!"
He grinned viciously at the despairing woman, saying, "Too weak."
Without exerting force, as a cat would play with a mouse, he gently let go, allowing the one-armed woman to fall onto the stone-paved street below. A fall from such a height would certainly turn her into minced meat.
Although the woman was a practitioner, she was incapacitated with one arm severed and her energy in chaos.
Mid-air, she let out a painful scream.
But not because of the agony of her severed arm, but because she failed to assassinate her target.
However, she had used the best poison she knew.
This poison had a strong smell, so she dared not put it in the wine but carefully kept it in a specially made membrane in her mouth, waiting to be close enough to spit it into the barbarian leader’s mouth.
But still, it was all for naught.
Unwilling!
She was unwilling!
She closed her eyes, awaiting death.
But death did not come.
A hand grabbed her.
The woman turned her head and saw a robust man carrying a heavy sword.
"I’m here." The man said.
"Fool, didn’t I tell you to leave?" The woman cried.
This pair was the famous knight duo on the Cloud Mountain Path — the Black and White Dual Swords.
The "Black Sword" Meng Nan.
The "White Sword" Jiang Shu.
Life is full of suffering, and beings try to escape disasters, but those who can’t, must endure.
Yet, there are always a few fools in the world willing to risk everything, willing to crash against the impossible.
Jiang Shu was such a fool, she wanted to assassinate an Ice Barbarian Leader to soothe the heavenly spirits of the inhabitants of this land.
She tricked her partner and ventured alone,
But Meng Nan had sensed it, waiting here...
At this moment, he caught the falling woman and turned and ran.
Above, several clan leaders witnessed it all, yet none were angry, as if they finally found something amusing.
Hongjing Kun smacked his lips, "Smack smack smack..."
Suddenly, an Ice and Snow Giant Wolf lurking in a corner stood up.
Hongjing Kun threw the woman’s severed arm to it, patted its head, and said, "Chase them, eat her!"
This giant wolf seemed to have the ability of spirit communication, raised its head, and tossed the severed arm into its mouth, chewing a few times, then turned, like a whirlwind leaped over the railing and chased afar.
"Drink, drink." Hongjing Kun laughed.
...
In the distance.
Meng Nan held the barely alive White Sword, using his body skill, running swiftly.
He had mastered the dual perfection of body skill and sword skill, and his leg’s lightweight technique was like an immortal crane flying to the clouds, nimble and fast.
But how fast was the giant wolf?
The distance between the two rapidly decreased.
"Old Meng, throw me down, they’re after me," Jiang Shu, half-dressed with tears streaming down her face.
However, Meng Nan remained silent, just sprinting madly.
And as he ran, a bloody aura suddenly surrounded him, and his sprinting speed increased greatly, obviously employing some body-harming secret skill.
"Old Meng!" Jiang Shu wept.
