Underestimated Again
"What a joke! With a bunch of useless trash like you, why would my Iron Eater Tribe need outside help!"
"Still being stubborn," Eagle King.
"If you weren't injured, I'd give you a kick."
Xiong Ba a loud shout, then glanced warily at Luo Yu, who was fighting over there. Last time, he was caught off guard, and the Asura Blade pierced through his Divine Soul, almost breaking into the world. The damage to his Divine Soul was too great.
At the same time, he always felt that it wasn't that simple. Even though the Eagle King was a figure of some importance in the Demon Race, he probably wouldn't dare to take action against the Iron Eater Tribe with just these few people. There must be another powerful clan behind them.
Xiong Mo thought the same thing. The Eagle King was quite bold, but he wouldn't really place his hopes for the battle on Asura.
The four demons and one Asura continued their fierce battle, with the Iron Eater Tribe remaining on the lower side, unable to retreat back to their Ancestral Mountain.
Xiong Ba roared furiously from time to time, but seemed to be raging helplessly, unable to do anything about it.
"My lord, should we do something? If something happens to the Iron Eater Tribe, our Human Race border will have to expand by a large area, requiring defense. This is not a good thing." Heavenly Micro Divine General asked with a frown. They couldn't see the scene in the distance very clearly, but they could roughly judge that the Iron Eater Tribe was at a disadvantage.
Ji Xian said calmly, "Don't be hasty. This is a conflict between the Demon Race, what does it have to do with us? Besides, if the Iron Eater Tribe couldn't even withstand this little storm, they wouldn't have been able to remain neutral for so many years. Don't underestimate the Iron Eater Tribe. Back then, Tiger Lord wanted to subdue Iron Eater Tribe, but it ultimately came to nothing. My Human Race Heavenly King has always been cautious when facing Bamboo Mountain, and there's a reason for that."
The Asura grew increasingly ruthless, his eyes glowing red, as if he had pushed his power to its limit, yet his battle with Xiong Mo remained evenly matched.
The battle remained deadlocked for a long time, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.
Not to mention Ji Xian outside, even Gu Yuanqing noticed something strange.
"They seem completely unable to break free, and even with my keen eyesight, I've seen them manage to escape back to the bamboo grove twice, albeit with minor injuries. Do these two big cats have other plans?"
Gu Yuanqing pondered to himself that he had been with the Iron Eater Tribe for nearly twenty years and knew them well. He would be wrong to assume they were honest and simple just by looking at their appearance; they were quite cunning.
The Five Poisons Mountain Demons who had fled to a distant place, including the Giant Python that had discarded its Physical Body and retained only its Divine Soul, dared not linger there and transformed into a Rainbow Light to return to Five Poisons Mountain.
The other Green-eyed Toad and Centipede were also terrified. They went to a distance, glanced back at North Spring Mountain, then at the battlefield of the Iron Eater Tribe, and headed straight for Five Poisons Mountain.
This time, he suffered a great loss. He almost died before he could even see what the enemy looked like. He didn't have a chance to use any of his strength and was only thinking about how to escape.
The five of them have always been inseparable, because when their Boundary Domain are in harmony, they can fight against true masters. Now that three of them are gone, they feel that the outside world is very dangerous.
Xiong Mo and Xiong Ba were still making a "difficult" retreat towards Bamboo Mountain.
As they drew ever closer to Bamboo Mountain, Eagle King grew anxious, repeatedly activating his Domain Power to attack Xiong Ba relentlessly.
Xiong Mo and Xiong Ba exchanged a glance during their fierce battle.
Suddenly, a gigantic phantom of the Iron Eater Tribe unfolded on Bamboo Mountain and slammed down onto the battlefield.
The Bamboo Mountain Ancestral Formation was activated by the Iron Eater Tribe, who came to its aid.
Xiong Mo and Xiong Ba suddenly unleashed a power even stronger than before, forcing back Asura and Eagle King, and then, with the help of the Bamboo Mountain Grand Formation, prepared to retreat back to Bamboo Mountain.
However, the look that flashed in both of their eyes was not one of relief, but rather a hint of regret.
But at that moment, their expressions changed, and with a roar, they unleashed their power.
A claw mark appeared out of thin air, leaving five long spatial cracks in the Void.
Xiong Ba Ba's armor shattered, his body covered in blood, and he flew backwards into the Bamboo Mountain.
Xiong Mo swung his Green Jade Bamboo Staff to meet the attack head-on, and was also forced back a hundred feet.
"Tiger Lord, what exactly do you want?" Xiong Mo's expression darkened; this wasn't the tiger he was waiting for.
The Tiger Lord, with a human body and a tiger's face, revealed his phantom form. He laughed and said, "It's nothing. Seeing you all fighting so hard made me itchy, so I couldn't resist throwing a claw. Chief Xiong Mo's strength is as good as ever."
When Eagle King and the others saw Tiger Lord's figure, their expressions froze, and they dared not make any further moves. This was the king of Four Great Royal Races, a true powerhouse in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.
Luo Yu of the Asura Race licked the blood off his blade. His eyes were fixed on Tiger Lord, burning with fierce fighting spirit. But after a moment, he shook his head. This was just a projection of Divine Soul. There was no point in fighting it.
He looked at the Bamboo Mountain but did not approach it. He liked fighting, but he did not like fighting against Array Formation.
He looked at the Eagle King and asked in a low voice, "What about the rest?"
Eagle King said with a livid face, "It seems you didn't leave Xiong Mo behind! If you hadn't attacked me just now, you would have already captured him."
Luo Yu grinned maliciously. "The things of my Asura Race aren't so easily taken advantage of."
As the words were spoken, a murderous intent immediately locked onto the Eagle King.
Eagle King's expression changed. He had almost forgotten that the Asura Race members were not so easy to deal with. If he got entangled with them, he had to be prepared to be killed at any time.
The Eagle King tossed something over.
Luo Yu took it, a smile spreading across his face that only made him look more frightening. He said, "If Eagle King ever wants to fight again, he can always come to me next time."
Then the figure vanished into thin air.
Tiger Lord turned his head, somewhat curious. "You've actually gotten involved with the Asura Race? Those guys rarely have any connections with humans or Demon Race."
Eagle King forced a smile, "It's just a deal."
Zhu Yi tensed up, a result of the suppression from his innate bloodline, making him tremble at the sight of Tiger Lord.
Tiger Lord glanced at Eagle King and then at Xiong Mo, then smiled and said, "Interesting. You guys continue, don't mind me."
Then, it really did just disappear.
Xiong Mo had already landed on the top of Bamboo Mountain. He looked at the place where Tiger Lord had disappeared, his dark circles almost squeezing together. This tiger had appeared here for the second time. He couldn't believe it was really just watching the show.
Eagle King wondered to himself, "Could it be that Tiger Lord is still eyeing Bamboo Mountain?"
"Eagle King, what do we do now?" Zhu Yi asked in a low voice.
"Go and kill that Human Race!" The Eagle King's gaze sharpened as he stared at Xiong Mo. "That Human Race killed two Heavenly Human Great Demon Race. What do you, the Iron Eater Tribe, have to say for yourself?"
Xiong Ba sneered, "What a joke! What does your going to your deaths have to do with my Iron Eater Tribe?"
Zhu Yi didn't really want to stay near the Bamboo Mountain either. Hearing this, he grinned maliciously and said, "I'll go and take his life right now. Living in the territory of the Demon Race, he still dares to be so bold. I think he's tired of living."
Eagle King warned, "Be careful."
Zhu Yi laughed loudly, "Among the Human Race, apart from the Heavenly King of the Heavenly Human Sacred Hall, what do I have to fear?"
Standing atop the mountain, Gu Yuanqing watched the movements from afar, smiled helplessly, and muttered to himself, "I've been underestimated again. These Demon Race still don't seem to take me seriously. It seems they're just two ordinary Celestial Person Demon Race; they can't make an example of me."
