"What Li Yunyang, I don't know what you're talking about?" Lizard Spirit still kept a tight lid on things, but it seemed like it really didn't know. Could there be others in this place? The one who tried to ambush me earlier?
Xiang Xueer was worried about Li Yunyang and the others. To ensure that Lizard Spirit wouldn't speak, she waved her hand again, mercilessly tightening the chains once more, causing the veins on her forehead to bulge as pain shot through her, and the wounds on her arms began to bleed profusely.
"I already said I don't know! I haven't seen your group; I just got here!" With no way to fight back, Lizard Spirit finally swayed its body and revealed its true form—a giant lizard as tall as a three-story building, with four tails whipping towards her in attack.
This guy was desperate. Xiang Xueer frowned and pulled hard on the chains, and in an instant, it was flung to the ground with a crash, creating a large pit in the ground!
"Hmph!" Seeing that it couldn't move anymore, Xiang Xueer walked over and stepped on its head. "Tell me, who sent you here? What is your purpose?"
Lizard Spirit's green eyes contracted. At this moment, it would rather die than reveal Demon Lord. Xiang Xueer was furious; she had no idea where Li Yunyang and the others were or if they were in danger, yet this creature wouldn't utter a single word.
Since that's the case, don't blame me for being rude. Xiang Xueer raised her sword, ready to stab it when suddenly there was a loud 'bang,' and a cloud of smoke erupted from Lizard Spirit, blinding her. By the time she turned back to look, that creature had already turned and fled.
Xiang Xueer sheathed her sword and had no intention of chasing after it. But if it wasn't this creature that captured Li Yunyang and the others, then who could it be? Could it be that Demon Lord has come as well?
She suddenly felt an ominous sensation and quickly moved forward to search for Li Yunyang, Lian Cheng Xue, and Ling Zhu. Please don't let anything happen to you; I'm coming to find you!
"It's so hot!" Li Yunyang furrowed his brow in confusion and then struggled to open his eyes. It felt like his entire body was placed in a furnace; he was so hot he could barely stand it.
"Ow, ow ow!" A series of cheers erupted around him. He frowned and looked to the side, only to see dark-skinned men and women wearing grass skirts holding hands in a circle, shouting something while making beast-like sounds.
"Oh my god? What’s going on? Where is this?" Startled, Li Yunyang fully awakened. He looked down and realized that his hands and feet were tied to a pillar, surrounded by dry branches forming a pile that looked like it was about to burn him alive.
Li Yunyang swallowed hard and turned his head. It turned out he wasn't the only one tied up; on his left was Lian Cheng Xue, and on his right was Ling Zhu, both still groggy and lined up next to him.
He struggled to break free for half a day. Due to being poisoned by the Algae earlier, he felt weak all over, his legs were soft, and his head felt heavy, making it impossible for him to escape.
The group of dark figures around him had disheveled hair and pitifully scant grass skirts. They were all excitedly dancing and exchanging glances. Could it be that they intended to roast them alive?
At this moment, Lian Cheng Xue and Ling Zhu were slowly waking up from the noise. When they opened their eyes and saw the situation, both were stunned. "What’s going on? Weren't we by the river? How did we end up tied up here? What are these creatures? Are they humans or monsters?"
Lian Cheng Xue scanned the low huts nearby and the various animal skulls hanging by the posts, shaking her head. "They should be human, but what kind of tribe is this? The way they dance feels like some kind of sacrifice."
"Sacrifice?" Ling Zhu was startled at first but then noticed a half-human tall square Bronze Cauldron in front of the three of them. Peering into it, she saw it filled with bright red blood, unsure if it was human or animal.
"What about that fat guy? Where did the Dead Girl go?" Were they going to be sacrificed? Li Yunyang swallowed hard and shouted anxiously, "Hey, who are you people? Let us go!"
Li Yunyang shouted frantically, but the group below continued their dance and shouts as if they didn’t exist, focused on their own activities.
"Could it be that they can't hear us?" After shouting for a long time without anyone responding, finally, when the dance ended, a man with a few red feathers on his head walked towards them.
This man's face was very angular, with dark skin and a tall, muscular build. He looked like the leader of this group. He squinted his eyes as he scanned the three of them and then began to speak rapidly in a language they couldn't understand.
Lian Cheng Xue blinked in confusion and asked, "What are you saying? I can't understand anything. Please let us go!"
This group belonged to some race that completely lacked any means of communication. The man suddenly pulled out a dagger made of bone with a swift motion. His eyes lingered on Ling Zhu for a moment before he nodded and turned to speak a few words to two others nearby. They then approached and untied Ling Zhu.
"Huh?" What was happening? Li Yunyang stared in shock at Ling Zhu who had been freed, then looked at himself and shouted anxiously, "Hey! Why did you only free her and not us?"
Ling Zhu was just relieved that she wouldn’t be sacrificed anymore when the man suddenly slapped her on the backside with a loud smack and squeezed it hard. Startled, she exclaimed, "Wow! What are you doing?"
"Ha ha ha!" The man nodded with a satisfied expression and waved his hand, sending his two subordinates to take her towards the small grass hut. Damn, this body couldn't move; I couldn't exert any strength. Otherwise, I would have taken you down in no time.
Ling Zhu was brought into the so-called room, and she immediately understood that this disgusting man must have taken a liking to her. However, Li Yunyang and Lian Cheng Xue were not so lucky. The man waved his bone knife in front of them, grinning with yellow teeth, pondering where to strike first.
"Let me go! I'll make you regret it!" Li Yunyang shouted, but even if they were released, it wouldn't matter; this poisoned body couldn't do anything.
Suddenly, someone rushed out from the forest, mumbling something that sounded like it was meant for them. The person's expression was frantic, as if they had encountered something alarming.
The man ran over in a frenzy, reporting something to their leader and pointing towards the forest ahead, which was billowing with thick smoke as if a fire had broken out.
"On fire?" Lian Cheng Xue frowned. The flames seemed quite fierce and were spreading rapidly; soon everyone began to panic.
This oasis was their lifeline; if a fire broke out, they would lose everything. However, the fire's origin was strange. Just then, Li Yunyang spotted a figure flying towards them from afar.
"It's Shirley!" Lian Cheng Xue shouted. She saw Shirley holding the blazing Azure Wind Sword, her Red Eyes radiating intense Killing Intent. She had chased all the way here and finally found Li Yunyang and Lian Cheng Xue tied to the posts.
The suddenly appearing woman wielded a flaming sword; it was obvious to anyone that she was the one who had set the forest ablaze. The leading man instantly became furious and raised his bone knife to charge at her.
"Hmm?" Xiang Xueer focused her eyes on Li Yunyang and Lian Cheng Xue tied to the posts. Strange; why were only those two here? Where were Ling Zhu and Fat Ancestor? She quickened her pace.
Her mind was consumed with these thoughts, completely disregarding everything else. With a flick of her wrist, the Azure Wind Sword emitted a wave of sword energy that sent the man flying several meters away, crashing to the ground.
