Chapter 22: Sacrifice for Death
Although the body of the Earth Ape was huge, in front of the Qingling Dragon Snake that was like a small mountain, it was a small witch, but such a rich and delicious flesh and blood instantly attracted the latter's gaze.
Thump!
The corpse of the earth ape was only more than ten zhang away from the place where the last jungle wolf was killed, and with a slight leap, the Qingling Dragon Snake had already come to its body, with a bright light in its eyes and saliva in its mouth.
"Woo ......"
Just as the Qingling Dragon Snake stretched out its slender tongue and opened its bloody mouth to enjoy this huge 'snack', in the midst of the whining, a tingling pain suddenly came from the tip of its tail, causing its entire body to shrink suddenly.
The most sensitive tail was attacked by someone, the Qingling Dragon Snake was instantly furious, turned around, and almost wanted to spew fire in his eyes, the huge tail rose at the same time, and then whipped downward, crackling, a slightly thin brown-yellow figure was like a fallen leaf in the wind, and was hit by the Qingling Dragon Snake's anger, and slapped heavily on the ground, smashing out a deep pit.
After a while, in a low wail, he slowly got up from the deep pit, revealing a body of brown and yellow fur, and looked at the former with a few unwilling eyes, it was the cub of the earth ape who had been sacrificed to protect him before!
Said to be cubs, but after standing up, they are still normal adult size. However, the beautiful yellow fur was covered with blood at the moment, and several hideous wounds slashed through the chest, revealing a large area of flesh and blood, which looked shocking.
Rao was so miserable, the cub of the earth ape still looked stubborn, and had no intention of retreating, only the eyes that occasionally threw themselves at the huge brown and yellow figure behind the Qingling Dragon Snake were full of sadness and despair.
If it hadn't rushed out of its hole to play today, how would it have encountered the cunning and cunning jungle wolf? How could it have caused its mother to be injured under the siege of two hungry wolves, and let the lowly Terran ants take advantage of it?
The lamb has the righteousness of kneeling and suckling, and the crow has the feeling of feeding. This is true of the lowliest ordinary beast, as a noble bloodline earth ape clan, as long as it survives, it will never let anyone hurt its mother's corpse again!
Even if it is a Qingling Dragon Snake whose strength and bloodline far exceed its own, it can't!
Hiss......
The Qingling Dragon Snake didn't seem to expect that it was an earth ape cub that hadn't grown all the hair that attacked him, and he was slightly stunned for a moment, and then the snake turned its head to the sky, and the two crystal short horns shone in the sun, making a hissing and strange laughter that wanted to tear the eardrums, echoing in the forest, making people shudder.
After the hissing, the huge snake's head slowly drooped, and the pair of vertical pupils of the Qingling Dragon Snake gradually became cold, the reason why it ignored the Earth Ape cub and the Terran ants on the side before was because the other party was too weak, and there was not much flesh and blood, and it was not enough to stuff a gap between its teeth.
But since this ant that doesn't know whether it is alive or dead is sent to the door by itself, and dares to harass it while it is eating, then don't think about leaving, let's turn it into an appetizing 'snack' before the big meal!
Without the slightest hesitation, the slender snake tongue swept out, and came to the brown and yellow figure that looked extremely thin at the moment with lightning speed, firmly entwined it, and instantly pulled it into its mouth, and in a few ups and downs, it had escaped into the snake's belly and disappeared again.
"Evil beasts dare!"
Slightly distracted, Liang Sibei saw this scene that made him stunned, and in anger, the long sword was unsheathed, and in the clear sound of the sword, with a few feet of ice-blue light, it stabbed straight towards the Qingling Dragon Snake.
Liang Sibei's heart is full of anger at the moment, since he was a child, he often went to some barren mountains around Yunbian City to hunt wild beasts to improve his food, and he also shot many large beasts such as jackals, tigers and leopards.
But he has never been so confused as he is today, in his subconscious, whether it is a mysterious beast or a wild beast, they are just beasts that drink blood, cruel and murderous, fierce and aggressive, and naturally there is no courtesy, righteousness and shame, and family affection is kind.
As it turned out, he was right, and the second timberwolf chose to flee for his life without even turning his head back while his companion was dying. But then the Earth Ape subverted his cognition, and in order to save the life of the cub, it chose to put down its pride, let go of the dignity in the depths of its blood, and bent its knees to beg for mercy from the most hated enemy of the Xuan Beast Clan.
And the cub of the earth ape, which was obviously just born and had not grown all the hair, in order to protect his mother's corpse from infringement, also resolutely rushed forward to fight to the death, even if the opponent was the Qingling Dragon Snake that was not weak in the entire Death Mountain Range, even if his bloodline had not yet awakened, he was not even a first-order early stage mysterious beast!
All of this deeply shocked Liang Sibei, completely overturned his previous cognition of the Mysterious Beast, and under the boiling of blood, he instantly forgot Liang Jiuye's advice of 'cutting the grass and being sure to eradicate the roots', and decided to use all his strength to save the cub of the earth ape, no matter what the result was.
But as soon as he made up his mind in his heart, the damn Qingling Dragon Snake here devoured the Earth Ape cub in one bite, and the anger in his heart could be imagined, and almost without any thought, the long sword in his hand stabbed out, and the sharp blade pointed directly at the scale armor that flashed a little ghostly light.
Click!
The previously invincible sword tip stabbed on the huge body of the Qingling Dragon Snake, and in the sound of the collision of gold and iron, there was a burst of sparks, but it was not even a small snake scale, but it was Liang Sibei himself, who was shocked by the terrifying anti-shock force and staggered for a while, and took a few steps back on the grass before he could stand firm.
Roar!
Although Liang Sibei's sudden attack did not cause any substantial damage to it, it was provoked twice in succession, and it was still two guys who were not even ants in its eyes, and the violent and cruel factor hidden in the bloodline of the Qingling Dragon Snake was finally fully stimulated.
A roar like a dragon's roar came from the deep mouth, and at the same time, the terrifying and cold aura belonging to the third-order Xuan Beast emanated, echoing in the air in the forest, and the surrounding thousands of meters were suddenly quiet, and all the sounds were reduced to nothingness, and some of the Xuan Beasts who were aware of this coercion were even more breathless, lying on the ground and not even daring to take a breath, for fear of angering the Qingling Dragon Snake that was obviously in a state of rage, and it was also swallowed in one bite.
The mysterious beasts separated by a long distance are still like this, not to mention Liang Sibei, who is close at hand. He only felt his breath suffocated, and the air around him seemed to be stripped away alive, leaving only the terrifying coercion that seemed to come from ancient times, constantly oppressing his living space, and the bones and joints of his body made a burst of crisp sounds, as if they were going to crush this slightly thin body directly into powder.
There was a slight hint of banter and disdain in his cold eyes, looking at the young man below who was struggling under his own coercion, the Qingling Dragon Snake was not in a hurry to make a move, with its strength, it was easy to judge that this Terran boy was only equivalent to the late stage of the first-order Xuan Beast.
And against an opponent of this strength, just by relying on the absolute crushing of the breath, it can make it collapse without a fight, and explode to death in endless fear, which is also its favorite way to kill the enemy.
However, it is obvious that there are some exceptions to the situation today, no matter how much it increases the coercion, although the Terran boy is obviously on the verge of collapse, and his whole body trembles, he can always grit his teeth and hold on, not letting himself kneel, and occasionally glimpsing his eyes, there is even a bit of provocative ridicule......
Yes, it's ridicule!
After perceiving the meaning contained in the young man's eyes, the Qingling Dragon Snake was instantly furious, as arrogant as it was, how could it be despised by a mere Terran ant?
The huge snake head raised and roared, and its body suddenly writhed, and the thunderous snake tail was about to fall, slapping the Terran ants that were too oppressed to move into blood foam. However, the next moment, the roar paused slightly, and the huge body of the Qingling Dragon Snake instantly stiffened, and it looked at the sky above its head with a bit of horror.
There, there was an indifferent and calm figure standing in the air, his palm condensed into a sword, and the ice blue light slowly dispersed.
"Stinky snake, do you want to move it again?"
