Chapter 1207: Chapter 406: Great Xia’s True Strength, Shaking Tigers to Intimidate, Cowed into Submission, and Postwar Reckoning (Part 2)
Qin Feng and Shangguan Yang’s faces instantly turned beet red, their expressions reaching an extreme level of discomfort. Especially Shangguan Yang’s old, wrinkled face even showed a slight tremble, the anger in his heart clearly rising to the utmost.
He even slightly moved his fingers, seemingly wanting to do something drastic to Yuwen Dao in his hand.
"It was my oversight, I hope Lord Xia Hong can forgive me!"
Qin Feng was the first to concede.
After speaking, he directly released Xia Chuan in his hand, skillfully pushing him to the ground.
Shangguan Yang’s full wrath vanished in an instant after Qin Feng’s words, even showing a hint of fear in his eyes. He first cast Qin Feng a grateful glance, then released Yuwen Dao in his hand, mimicking Qin Feng to skillfully send him back to the ground.
However, just as Xia Chuan and Yuwen Dao were escaping their grasp.
In mid-air, Yang Zhun suddenly looked obscurely towards Chui Mountain. Duan Hong immediately caught on and signaled Mu Longhe with his eyes.
Mu Longhe moved!
Swish........
In a flash, Mu Longhe’s body shot out, abruptly drawing the silver twin swords at his waist, and stabbed two silver cold beams straight at Xia Chuan and Yuwen Dao, who had just flown out less than ten meters.
"Courting death!"
Is it difficult to kill two Cold Resistance Level experts within ten meters of him?
He could see Xia Chuan and Yuwen Dao, the former with a strength of 41 Qis, the latter with 39 Qis. For their age, such strength was indeed remarkable in the Nine Towns, and it would not be an exaggeration to call them prodigious talents.
But talent is only talent, and as long as they don’t break through to the Xianyang Level, they are still no different than ants in his eyes.
So from the moment he acted, Mu Longhe never considered whether he would succeed. Even hearing Xia Hong’s words "courting death," he showed no sign of stopping, the sword beams moving straight forward, almost instantly reaching the back of Xia Chuan and Yuwen Dao’s neck.
Just half a step further forward...
Swish......
A scarlet afterimage suddenly flew out from within the Ministry Building, trailing two bloody ribbons in the air, and struck directly on the two points of sword beams.
"What is that!"
At the moment blood light collided with the sword beams, Mu Longhe exclaimed in shock, and the killing intent that had condensed in his eyes instantly halted, turning into terror and dread. He frantically let go and tried to retreat.
Swish......
Crack crack!
The speed of the blood light and sword beams was too fast, and though extremely powerful, the concentrated force produced an incredibly piercing and sharp humming noise upon collision.
But amidst this piercing humming, there were also two extremely crisp sounds of bones cracking, causing everyone’s heart on the scene to skip a beat.
"Ah... my hands!"
Mu Longhe’s scream drew everyone’s eyes over, and seeing his state, their pupils uniformly shrank suddenly, faces filled with horror and shock.
Mu Longhe’s arms were actually severed from the shoulder roots.
Even though the silver longswords in both his hands hadn’t loosened yet, the bluish veins on the back of his hands were clearly visible when they fell from mid-air, clearly showing how fast those two bloody ribbons had been!
Swish...
No one paid attention to Xia Chuan and Yuwen Dao, who had landed safely anymore.
Because the scarlet afterimage that severed Mu Longhe’s arms had returned.
Most people on the scene hadn’t even clearly seen what it was before it returned, and its target was still Mu Longhe.
Mu Longhe, now with severed arms, beads of cold sweat appeared on his brow and, without any hesitation, retreated directly to dodge.
But how could his speed compare to that scarlet afterimage?
Clang......
At the critical moment, Yang Zhun finally took action.
He appeared directly in front of Mu Longhe, and with a swift horizontal sweep of his long spear, he knocked the scarlet afterimage away for dozens of meters.
"Chirp......"
After stopping, the scarlet afterimage let out an extremely weak and sharp cry.
An extremely small fox-like Cold Beast, just over ten centimeters long, with a fluffy tail over thirty centimeters long, suddenly appeared in everyone’s view.
The fox-like Cold Beast’s body was extremely miniature, with blood jade-colored fur as sparkling and translucent as jade, remarkably eye-catching. Its black and white distinct pupils were observing Yang Zhun and the eleven others curiously, with two shining rainbow claws on its chest still stained with the blood and flesh from Mu Longhe’s shoulders.
Upon recognizing the true identity of the scarlet afterimage, the pupils of all over ten thousand Cold Resistance Level individuals in South City contracted suddenly, faces full of shock and horror.
"Is that... a Cold Beast, it seems to be a Blood Jade Fox?"
"Blood Jade Fox, it is a Blood Jade Fox, with a body length of only just over ten centimeters..."
"I recall that an advanced Blood Jade Fox is over twenty centimeters long."
"Which means, this Blood Jade Fox is..."
"A Beast King Level Blood Jade Fox, Great Xia actually reared a Beast King?"
"This......"
"Gulp... A Beast King Level Blood Jade Fox, Great Xia... Great Xia... has a method to tame a Beast King Level Blood Jade Fox?"
.............
The Cold Beast species in the Moao Mountain Range have some overlap with those identified by Great Xia, and the Blood Jade Fox happens to be one of them.
So, many people recognized it at a glance.
Regarding Cold Beasts, there is a general understanding in the Ice Abyss that the smaller the body size, the more terrifying its true strength usually is.
Therefore, the Blood Jade Fox with a body length of just over ten centimeters, even if few Cold Resistance Levels below had seen it, could immediately be judged as a Beast King Level.
Combining with the scene just now where the Blood Jade Fox severed Mu Longhe’s arms, naturally no one on the scene would question this judgment.
