Soon, after the sixth one was distributed, Jia Xibai said, "The last two..."
He had just uttered these words when, not far behind him, beneath a large tree, Pochen glanced at the group of resentful females and the group of northern beasts behind them, and abruptly added, "You can take the assigned females away with you. They belong to you."
This sentence made the suppressed anger surge like waves again, and the fuse of conflict was ignited, making it difficult to extinguish.
Before the lower-level beasts could obey orders and take the females away, the fear of the females caused the male beasts in the north to launch a second round of resistance...
They protested and rushed forward, "If you want to take our northern female beasts, you have to step over our corpses!"
They completely disregard their own lives. Even though they know they are doomed to die, they cannot bear to watch the females being insulted.
Several of the male beastmen wanted to protect Ye Luoxing, but Ye Luoxing was afraid that the strange beasts would notice something, so he could only take them and squeeze forward with the herd.
"Kill us and let the females go!" the male beasts said. They just wanted to protect the females as much as possible.
"You can't treat females like this!" They protested, and several male orcs broke free from their ropes in anger and turned into beast forms.
However, they were immediately pressed to the ground by the high-level monsters in the sky, and blood splattered everywhere again.
Yue Huang kept his word. This time the slaughter was indeed more frenzied than the last time. The male orcs in the north fell one after another...
In just a few minutes, they lost more than twenty male beasts, and the smell of blood in the air was still growing stronger...
"Captain Ye, if this goes on, we're all doomed." Yue Shang said this.
Ye Luoxing's black pupils were deep. She did not respond to Yue Shang's words. She looked at the killing around her and felt indescribable.
Wei Yu and the others shed tears. The death of each northern beast made them sad and helpless. Yet, they still did it for them...
Wei Yu wanted to stop them, but it was useless this time, and the strange beasts in the West were indeed too much...
Just when the supernatural beasts had killed more than thirty male beasts from the north, and when the corpses covered the entire small patch of grass, and when supernatural powers were overflowing around Ye Luoxing, suddenly, on the high rock, the supernatural beast king gracefully raised his hand again and stopped the supernatural beasts from killing.
"This is such a waste of time..." Yue Huang glanced coldly at the corpses on the ground, while Jia Xibai, Po Chen and others watched with expressionless faces.
The strange beasts stopped. The orcs from the north wanted to continue, but were kicked to the ground again. When they got up, Yue Huang's voice rang out again.
He smiled and said, "Since you are not convinced, I have a suggestion."
His words made the northern beasts, whose eyes were already bloodshot, stop, including the females like Wei Yu and all the strange beasts around them. They all looked up, not knowing what Yue Huang wanted to say, and the surroundings fell silent for a short time.
"I don't want your blood to stain the land at the foot of the main peak. Since you want to save them, I'll give you a chance. You can send the highest-ranking male orc among you to challenge the high-ranking beasts of Yancheng. If you win, I'll let them go." Yue Huang suddenly said such a thing. Would he actually give the orcs from the north a chance?
Although Ye Luoxing didn't have much contact with Yue Huang, she always felt that he was not the kind of orc that he was.
Is it his conspiracy or...
The male and female beasts in the north were also stunned. This turn of events came so suddenly that they stared at the height in a daze for a long time.
The strange beasts around did not react much. After all, they trusted Yue Huang very much, and they also trusted their own abilities.
In the distance, the female and the high priest were still standing together. The high priest watched the scene and murmured, "You really do have a purpose..."
The high priest's voice did not reach the beast herd. At this moment, the beastmen's attention was all on Yue Huang.
Wei Yu took the initiative to speak: "Are you telling the truth?"
Yue Huang's eyes turned cold: "I hate female questioning."
Then, he raised his lips coldly and said, "However, I am not an elder from your northern region, so what I say is of course true."
His calm narration made it hard to tell whether it was a calculation on his part, but it didn't sound fake either.
Wei Yu and the female had complicated expressions, and the male beasts from the north behind them looked at each other, with obvious doubt in their eyes.
"You only have one chance. If you miss it, you will all die." Pochen's deep voice came again, and he looked at the group of male beasts in the north.
Ye Luoxing felt uneasy...
Wei Yu mustered up the courage to ask again, "Who are you planning to send out?"
Yue Huang smiled. Jia Xibai, who was standing beside him, took the initiative to step forward. He stared at Wei Yu and said, "Me."
When Jiaxibai stepped forward, Wei Yu and the others' expressions changed. They knew that Jiaxibai was an eighth-level beastman, and a very strong male beastman among the eighth-level beastmen. However, among the beastmen captured in the north, there were not even any beastmen above the seventh level. Although they were all high-level beastmen of the fifth and sixth levels, they were still a far cry from the eighth-level beastmen...
They clearly wanted to kill them, but they were just having fun with the beasts of the north...
Any orc above level seven wouldn't be easily captured during a war...
Yue Huang opened his mouth lazily: "Think carefully, if we lose, they will die too."
Yue Huang's casual remark completely forced the Northern Beast into a desperate situation. Combined with Po Chen's words just now, doesn't it mean that no matter what they choose, it's a dead end?
Yue Huang's emerald eyes scanned the remaining group of northern beasts. The faces of each beastman there were... difficult to recognize...
Wei Yu didn't say anything else. Her eyes were complicated as she looked at the male beasts behind her. She didn't force them to go on the field.
However, the male animals had originally intended to resist and protect the females. Since they would die anyway, why not give it a try?
The strongest of the six-level beasts took two steps forward and said to his companions, "I'll go."
He also winked at the male beasts in the north, obviously telling them that if he lost, they must rush forward to protect the females.
The male beastmen understood his meaning and could only gaze upon him with sorrow...
In the herd of beasts, Yueshang and Ye Luoxing were talking about something.
Ye Luoxing's fists were clenched tightly at her side. She stared at the group of strange beasts high above, then glanced around, past Wei Yu and the others, and past the surrounding northern beastmen...
Finally, in the chaotic and desperate situation, with all the orcs watching, she slowly raised a hand: "I will do it."
Her voice was deep. She raised her head and looked ahead. The male beasts in the north around her turned to look at her. Ye Luoxing had already withdrawn her hand and slowly walked out of the herd. She knew they were all staring at her. She did not hesitate or stop, and no strange beast stopped her. She just walked out of the herd.
Yue Huang looked at the male beast that walked out, and an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
