Chapter 290: Chapter 161 Who Told You The Furnace Needs To Be Lit By Someone?_3
This fire, it was truly worth it!
The Cold Beasts have retreated, and next, it should be...
Bang!
Xia Chuan had just put away his joy, his expression had just tightened, when a loud noise passed overhead.
He looked up, and his expression froze instantly.
Teng Jiao, Snow Mane, Demon Sheep, Frost Wolf, four Intermediate Cold Beasts, actually charged up from four directions, surrounding everyone in the main hall.
"I forgot, these four Intermediate Cold Beasts are being controlled!"
Just now, Xia Chuan noticed that the moment the flames of the Iron Refining Furnace were extinguished, the eyes of the four Intermediate Cold Beasts clearly returned from that fluid white back to the normal blood-red color.
At this moment, their eyes looked no different from normal Cold Beasts, yet these four Intermediate Cold Beasts were not attracted by the flames outside the valley, they were just staring straight at everyone within the main hall.
"Shi Ping, light the fire!"
Around the wooden house, all the Cold Beasts that could move had retreated, heading towards the western tree full of torches.
Lighting the Iron Refining Furnace for a little while longer now shouldn’t be a problem.
As Xia Chuan shouted for Shi Ping to light the fire, worried that he might not understand his intention, he quickly rushed upstairs.
"The fire’s out, trying to light it again won’t be so easy!"
However, a wild voice suddenly rang out from upstairs.
Xia Chuan’s expression instantly froze, not just his, but also Luo Yuan, Yuan Cheng, Yue Feng, the Da Xia Hunting Team members, all their faces froze as well.
Bang...
"Puh!"
Shi Ping’s body fell from the third floor like a cannonball. The wooden house was already riddled with holes. Xia Chuan, who had just rushed up the stairs, caught him but found that the force was too much for him to handle, and his body was forced back six or seven meters.
Luo Yuan and others rushed to his side, helping him lift Shi Ping up, and upon seeing the footprint on Shi Ping’s chest, they immediately realized that it was the person who just spoke who kicked him down.
A group of Earth-digging Realm individuals on the second floor looked up towards the third floor, the rest had no reaction, only the seventeen members of the Hunting Team, including Xia Chuan, had their pupils constrict, their frozen faces as if they had seen a ghost.
Standing by the Iron Refining Furnace on the third floor were two people unexpectedly.
They were He Meng and He Gang!
The seventeen members of the Hunting Team remembered very clearly, it was just on the 25th of last month.
He Gang was cut into two halves by Xia Hong with one slash; He Meng was kicked in the abdomen by Xia Hong, and then beheaded with one more slash.
Because it was revenge for the eight Logging Realm individuals who were killed at the camp, the scene was quite satisfying at the time, with all seventeen people remembering every detail clearly.
Two people who were surely as dead as could be, actually appeared before their eyes.
No, not just that...
Under the night, He Meng’s skin even radiated a faint sheen, combined with the force he felt when catching Shi Ping just now...
Not only resurrected but also broke through to the Cold Resistance Level!
Although they had previously heard from Xia Hong that the deceitful monster in the Mirror Immortal Camp could resurrect the dead.
But knowing and actually seeing are two different things.
Xia Chuan and the Hunting Team members instantly felt a weight in their hearts.
The rest of the Great Xia’s Earth-digging Realm people, even if they didn’t know the specifics, could sense the hostility from He Meng’s demeanor at this moment.
"Brothers, you can all come out now!"
He Meng ordered towards the outside of the valley, and instantly, a large group of black-clad individuals wielding longbows and broadswords poured in through the already destroyed western ravine exit.
Xia Chuan glanced back just for a moment and immediately recognized many familiar faces in the front row, all people who had been killed by Xia Hong alongside He Meng.
The wooden house had practically collapsed completely, with only the staircase structure in the center barely holding up, and almost everyone in the Great Xia Camp had gathered in the small area near the staircase in the main hall.
Over two hundred Mirror Immortal Camp people instantly surrounded everyone, all raising longbows, nocking iron arrows, aiming at Xia Chuan and other Earth-digging Realms on the second floor, clearly aware that the only threatening force left in Great Xia was this group.
The joy of the Cold Beast tide’s retreat had not yet fully dissipated, and in less than tens of breaths, they were plunged into this deadly situation again.
Whether it was Xia Chuan and the other Earth-digging Realms, the five hundred Logging Realms, or those huddled together on the third floor, those children, despair flashed in their eyes.
"Rest assured, we won’t kill you, but..."
He Meng wore a cruel smile, turned his gaze from those children, stared at Xia Chuan and them for a moment, then furrowed his brow:
"Where is that bastard of a leader of yours? Tell him to come out. If he obediently accepts death today, we won’t kill anyone else in Great Xia Camp. Not only won’t we kill, but you’ll all even become part of my Mirror Immortal Camp in the future!"
No one answered He Meng.
From the Hunting Team at the camp to the Earth-digging Realms to even the children on the third floor as young as five or six, everyone just silently stared at He Meng. No one spoke, but their hate-filled eyes said it all.
"Very good, very good, it seems you all are very loyal to that bastard, but unfortunately, today he became a coward and doesn’t seem to care about you all..."
The reactions of the people made He Meng ironically laugh in anger, belittling Xia Hong at first, then turning to the nearest children, pulling out a dagger from his chest, and throwing it fiercely at a child glaring at him from the crowd.
"Xia Hong, get out here!"
