I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself-Chapter 192 - 89: Huo Chang: I Am Very Pleased

The entire Xiaoyang army formation was once again thrown into chaos, with the sounds of arrows and crossbows, and in the distance, squads of small-scale Human Race Martial Artists appeared.

Like small snakes gliding around, if you don't chase them, they'll wrap around you; if you chase them, they scatter and run.

When you stop pursuing, they come back.

Thus, the cycle of pull and retreat continued.

Chase and attack, attack and chase.

Sometimes, the Xiaoyang Race got anxious and chased angrily, but the Human Race, while running, would circle around a hill and suddenly vanish into the vast wilderness.

This area is vast, filled with pits and caves—go ahead and try to find them.

If you don't look for them, before long, the Blazing Flame Race soldiers leap out again, shooting arrows from afar.

...

Muo Chang was furious, wanting to burn the mountains and incinerate those cunning and damnable Humans.

But the mountains had already been burned by the Golden Crow.

As long as they reached the Human Race Territory, all these ambushes would be futile.

Moreover, such frequent ambushes further proved that the Human Race was stalling for time to allow their kin to migrate into the mountains.

Suddenly, a jolt went through Muo Chang, and he realized something.

If the Human Race could ambush, so could they!

The more the Human Race didn't want them to advance, the more they needed to push forward.

Soon, a unit of Xiaoyang Race soldiers, about fifteen hundred in number, was deployed.

There was no choice; most of Xiaoyang were scratching incessantly with powder on their bodies, scratching until their entire fur was oozing blood.

And once they mixed with the blood, the itch worsened, making their bodies restless.

Seeing the clan soldiers in such a miserable state, Muo Chang roared angrily, "Damn these Humans, always ambushing and playing tricks. It's time these cunning people tasted the might of the Xiaoyang Race, and let their kin pay the bloody price for their actions."

Muo Chang looked at Mu Shanlu and Qiu Feihuai. The two nodded, with killing intent flashing in their eyes as well.

Riding on the Crocodile Dragon, Muo Chang moved repeatedly among the selected clan soldiers, shouting loudly.

"Follow me directly to the Human Race Blazing Flame Territory, using the relatives of these despicable ambushers to wash away the shame of these past two days!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

...

"Report, ahead we have discovered the Human Race Martial Artists arrayed in formation coming towards us."

"What?"

Muo Chang was startled, then grinned savagely, "Good, good, good, finally they come out."

"How many?"

"About two thousand!"

"Only two thousand?"

Muo Chang gripped the long spear, "Then feast on the flesh and blood of these two thousand Humans first, before charging towards their clan divisions!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Every Xiaoyang, hearing Muo Chang's words, also had a glint of killing intent in their eyes. These past two days had been unbearable for them.

In Ji Land, it was never like this before.

To be ambushed by some mountain-dwelling Human Race from the Northern Lands into such a state, now with Muo Chang's call to arms, all the pent-up resentment turned into killing intent, unleashed.

The three of Muo Chang rode Crocodile Dragons charging at the front, followed by Xiaoyang Race soldiers on all fours.

In an instant, more than a thousand black figures, resembling gorillas, turned into a torrent rushing towards the direction of the Human Race clan soldiers arrayed in formation.

Seeing Muo Chang lead the charge, Muo Qiu, Qiu Bear, and Mu Xun gathered together.

"What do we do?"

"What else can we do? The Human Race has so many giant crossbows, and the Celestial Vein Seventh Layer isn't invincible. I see it being precarious."

"Don't you remember the heavy losses at Zhushui last time? The Humans here are completely different from those in Ji Land."

"I mean, what should we do?"

"Prepare to run. We can't even fight the clan soldiers at Zhushui. Staying in the mountains is just waiting to die."

"What if the clan holds us accountable?"

"Isn't there the flying... the Flying Ships of the Lingyu Bo Division? Where it is doesn't matter, everyone saw the Lingyu Flying Ship being shot down. I suspect the local tribes have been supported by the Lingyu Bo Division."

"Makes sense. I remember rumors saying the Ancestor Land of the Lingyu is in this area."

"Last time at the Zhushui battle, the Humans had so many giant crossbows, and now they even have Witch Medicine Powder. Who knows what else they have hidden? If there's no connection with the Lingyu, I wouldn't believe it."

"If the Bo Division intervened, it's normal to lose."

"Let's find a chance to sneak back."

...

Seeing only a thousand or so Xiaoyang emerging, Huo Qingg felt much more at ease.

The fun stuff from the Witch Hall really worked, itching to the point of body sores and significant reduction in combat strength.

"Commander Tian, Commander Shi, I've brought in giant crossbows to assist you. The task of hunting down the Xiaoyang Myriarch is up to you now."

Huo Qingg requested Huo Chang to send Blood Sea Guards, but Huo Chang sent along the Blood Curse Guards as well.

Otherwise, Huo Qingg wouldn't dare to be so bold.

Among the three elite troops of the clan, apart from the Flame Martial Soldiers who hadn't been fully formed, the other two had all arrived.

Shi Jun wore a mask on his face, with only a pair of eyes interwoven with blood and black, reflecting the direction the Xiaoyang Race Soldiers were coming from.

"The Xiaoyang Myriarch is ours to handle. I heard he has a Witch Artifact?"

Although Shi Jun was cold and indifferent, Tian Chuanshan still exuded the joys and sorrows of a person and even made a joke.

"Only a little over a thousand Xiaoyang Race Soldiers have charged out. Fire Centurion, the Xiaoyang you've been dealing with these past two days aren't bad, huh? You've kept them from being able to fight."

"In total, only twenty thousand Xiaoyang came in, and ten thousand of them were clan soldiers from the Northern Migrations of the Three Divisions. If even this number of Xiaoyang soldiers requires the clan leader's intervention, then our Upper Blazing Flame Division's clan leader must really lack authority."

"Let's go."

The three of them descended the mountain, arriving in front of the soldier array.

In front of the soldier array were the clan members with Celestial Vein Level combat power, including some of the clan leaders from various divisions.

Underneath Huo Qingg's robe, his hands were trembling violently. The Xiaoyang rushed like black apes, shaking the ground with incredible momentum. To claim that his heart wasn't trembling would be false.

"Kill, kill!"

More than fifteen hundred Xiaoyang charged at the Blazing Flame Race Soldiers in formation, and as they advanced, they saw the Blazing Flame Race Soldiers in formation shifting slightly back and forth.

Suddenly, giant crossbows were mounted on shoulders.

"Fire!"

Whizz, whizz, whizz!

"Scatter, quickly scatter!"

Muo Chang roared, took out a small black tower from his bosom, infused it with a surge of blood energy, and the small tower emitted a blood light, blocking it in front of him.

The giant arrows pierced through the air, soon forming a row of blood flowers among the charging Xiaoyang Race Soldiers.

By the time the second giant arrow was notched, the charging Xiaoyang had already scattered, and the Crocodile Dragon at the front was already more than ten zhang away.

"Die!"

Muo Chang roared, leveling his long spear to pierce through a squad of Blazing Flame Race Soldiers.

"Kill!"

Tian Chuanshan led the Blood Sea Guard Race Soldiers to charge against the Xiaoyang, covering for the rear giant crossbow soldiers to continue their attack.

Rumble!

At the same time, Shi Jun stepped forward, a dense Blood Evil Qi surged up, leaping midair to meet Muo Chang.

"You courting death!"

Seeing a one-armed Human Race member charging forward, Muo Chang raised his hand and thrust a spear.

But the spear struck empty air, caught under the arm by the one-armed Shi Jun, whose blood and black interwoven eyes emanated a blood glow.

"Do you even understand how to use the Human Race's Witch Artifact!"

A piercing voice rang out, and Muo Chang felt a surge of intense Evil Qi and resentment from the same race rushing towards him, momentarily halting his blood energy and attack.

"You!"

Shi Jun recited obscure incantations, followed by other Blood Curse Guard Martial Artists who also started chanting.

Waves of intense Evil Qi and a fusion of resentment rose from each Blood Curse Guard Martial Artist and flowed into Shi Jun's body.

At that moment, Shi Jun's aura witnessed an uncanny surge.

In Muo Chang's eyes, innumerable shattered Xiaoyang illusions appeared.

In his perception, countless Xiaoyang cried and wailed, and a sense of dread blossomed from the bottom of his heart.

"Give it here!"

Shi Jun snatched the Witch Artifact Tower, and among the countless shattered illusions behind him, two blood shadows swiftly emerged, shooting from his arm into Muo Chang's chest.

"Whoo, whoo!"

As these shattered illusions pierced through Muo Chang's chest, they swept towards the other Xiaoyang Martial Artists behind him.

For a moment, the sound of lament from the Xiaoyang Race echoed through the battle.

Even more clusters of fragmented Xiaoyang illusions danced and wept before their eyes, causing a moment of hesitation among the leading Xiaoyang Celestial Vein Martial Artists.

"Loose the arrows!"

"Aim for the leaders!"

Huo Qingg snatched a giant crossbow and fired the giant arrow in his hand.

Dodging Shi Jun's line of fire, it pierced through Muo Chang's shoulder and sent a dazed Xiaoyang Thousand Captain flying.

Other giant crossbows also collectively launched at the Xiaoyang Thousand Captains at the Celestial Vein Realm.

The charge led by Muo Chang and the Xiaoyang Race Soldiers crumbled in an instant.

...

Blazing Flame Race Territory.

Huo Chang glanced at the message brought back by the Cyan Feathered Sparrow.

"Pass down the order, bring out all the fire oil and wood from below."

"The guests returned home early."
