Chapter 1618: 1618: Tiger Clan Territory
Chapter 1618: Chapter 1618: Tiger Clan Territory“This Blood Blade did not come easily; from this moment, it’s mine!”
Qu Rui grasped the Blood Blade, laughing to himself.
Just as he was about to lower his head to examine the Blood Blade closely, it suddenly trembled violently. Killing aura flooded the air, and it flew out of his hand, standing upright in the sky. Then, like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, it slashed horizontally toward his neck.
Qu Rui could never have anticipated that the Blood Blade would attack of its own accord. He was so excited and thrilled to acquire the blade that he hadn’t any defenses up.
Caught completely off guard, Qu Rui only felt a chill at his neck. The next moment, he found his head flying high up, moving farther and farther away from his body.
He had been decapitated, yet not instantly dead. When he landed, his head faced his body, noticing blood gushing out like arrows from his severed neck.
Thereafter, a streak of light flew by, landing in front of him. A pair of cold eyes met his, filled with ridicule.
“Huh…”housands of our clan’s members carefully searched the entire territory but found no trace of the thief. Yet, though we told them the truth, the Lion Clan wouldn’t believe us, claiming we’re harboring the thief and suggesting the thief might be one of our members…”
Hu Zhuang angrily said, “Huh, those Lion Clan guys are clearly using this as an excuse to bully us!”
Hu Wei asked seriously, “What does our Clan Leader say?”
The Tiger Clan youth replied, “The Clan Leader is furious and has already led the strong members of our clan to confront the Lion Clan about it!”
Hu Wei and Hu Zhuang exchanged a glance, then waved their hand and said, “Let’s go, let’s see the confrontation ahead!”
After a few steps, Hu Wei turned his head and said to Wu De and Wind Roc, “Wu De, Wind Roc, you two can sit in our clan first and wait for Brother Fang there. We brothers will check the situation ahead, and if nothing major happens, we’ll be back soon to accompany you.”
Wu De, eager to find a sparring partner since advancing in the Ninth Floor Linglong Tower, was itching for a fight. Given his friendship with the Tiger brothers, he jumped at the chance to join in the excitement and exclaimed, “Our brothers are in trouble, how can we not lend a hand? Let’s go! Let’s go together!”
Wind Roc, also being a Spirit Beast, was born with a combative spirit, and upon hearing this, showed an eager expression as well.
Hu Wei said, “Since that’s the case, let’s all go together!”
Under the guidance of that Tiger Clan youth, Wu De, Wind Roc, and a group of Tiger Clan youths, rode Spiritual Artifacts and hurried to the face-off between the Tiger and Lion Clans.
The Tiger and Lion Clan strong practitioners facing off were all elite members with transformation abilities, and they took human form for this confrontation, speaking in human language.
“Hand over the thief from your Tiger Clan, or else, today we, the Lion Clan, will flatten the Tiger Clan Territory!”
A Lion Clan Elder spoke with a voice like thunder.
“The thief is not in our Tiger Clan territory, nor is he one of our Tiger Clan members! You Lion Clan shouldn’t be so overbearing!”
A Tiger Clan Elder retorted, his tone full of anger.
The Lion Clan Elder sneered, “If that’s the case, then why don’t you let us search your Tiger Clan territory for the thief? Clearly, you’re feeling guilty!”
Yet another Tiger Clan Elder said, “Nonsense! This is our Tiger Clan territory; why should we let you Lion Clan enter? If it were the other way around, would you allow us into your Lion Clan territory?”
The Lion Clan Elder, evidently skilled in verbal sparring, responded, “Why not? If your Spiritual Medicine was stolen and you tracked the thief into our territory, then we’d let you search freely!”
“Old fellow, you sure talk well! When it really comes to it, who knows how you’ll evade then!”
Newly arriving, Hu Wei couldn’t help but chime in loud and clear.
The speaking Lion Clan Elder saw a younger Tiger Clan member interrupting and got furious, pointing at him and saying, “Tiger Clan boy, even your Clan Leader dares not speak to me like this, yet you dare! Your courage is truly commendable! Do you believe I could crush you with a single palm?”
Both the Tiger and Lion Clans are combat-loving Spirit Beast clans; they will not easily back down without a decisive victory.
Though Hu Wei’s cultivation level was far inferior to that of the Lion Clan Elder, he remained undeterred, patting his chest and laughing heartily, “I don’t believe it! If you want to fight, then fight!”
“You’re courting death!”
The Lion Clan Elder was a mid-level Soul Severing strong practitioner; he wouldn’t even consider a mere Nascent Soul Perfection level Hu Wei worthy. With a lift of his hand, he unleashed a palm strike.
In the sky, a booming sound erupted, and a massive Spirit Qi Big Palm pressed down toward Hu Wei.
“Fight! Fight!”
Just then, on a distant mountaintop, a silver-haired Little Mink watching the scene let out a “hee” laugh, and its small, lively eyes gleamed with human-like intelligence.
