She wanted to change all of this.
Guo Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and encouraged herself.
Neither of them is allowed to die, at least not because of her. As long as it's not because of her, she doesn't care if they fight each other to the death.
The orcs of the Sishui and Yushan tribes seemed to have a telepathic connection, setting off at the same time. Before leaving, Guo Xiaoxiao consciously asked Cang Jue to wrap her in animal hides.
According to Cang Jue, not only the two tribes came to watch the battle, but also people from other tribes. What if another tribe saw her unparalleled beauty, fell in love at first sight, and tried to abduct her?
She no longer had the energy to deal with these people.
Sitting atop Cang Jue's eagle-like back, gazing at the mountains and rivers, Guo Xiaoxiao was still afraid that it was too high and she might fall. She clung tightly to the fur on Cang Jue's back, refusing to let go.
Following behind were rows of eagles, soaring swiftly and emitting piercing cries.
The closer we got to our destination, the louder we could hear the roar of a tiger.
The tiger's roar sounded familiar—it was Mickelson!
They had reached the territory of the Mingbei (Sea Stele), still some distance away, but they could already see it.
"We're here, it's just ahead. Let's slow down."
Cang Jue gave the order, then bent down first. Cang Jue's body bobbed up and down in the air, making Guo Xiaoxiao feel nauseous.
The Ming Stele was surrounded by dense jungle, with numerous trees whose canopies obscured the view. Cang Jue chose to look down from a high vantage point.
The Mingbei (冥碑) is located on a mountain peak south of the orcish tribes.
As its name suggests, it is a huge white rock with a smooth surface, engraved with the marks of many orcs who had successfully dueled.
Shaped like a cylinder, it hovers atop the cliff in the air, looking down like a sword thrust into the earth. Surrounded by overgrown weeds, it's a favorite habitat for many wild animals, but over the years, few orcs have ventured to this place.
His land was surrounded by a fence, with a large outer fence covered in vines.
Inside was a desolate, empty space.
Guo Xiaoxiao looked at the Mingbei (a type of ancient Chinese stele) with a sense of unease. She felt that this place was very strange, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
Let's go down.
Cang Jue retracted his eagle wings, transformed into human form, took Guo Xiaoxiao's hand, and slowly stepped into the area of the Mingbei.
Guo Xiaoxiao was wrapped in animal skin, making her features unclear; at most, one could only discern a small female.
The orcs of the Sishui tribe were the first to reach the Mingbei, taking advantage of their ability to fly.
After waiting for only about 20 minutes, Miken led the tiger beasts to the territory of the Netherworld Monument.
"Waaaaah!"
The tiger's roar echoed through the sky, its power awe-inspiring.
Scary! Scary! Guo Xiaoxiao almost fell to the ground.
Miksen led three hundred tiger beasts, stopping before the Mingbei monument with a majestic and overwhelming aura. As soon as the two sides met, the beastmen on both sides roared and confronted each other.
Cang Jue and Miksen were both among the best of the orcs. Even from a distance, they could feel the pressure emanating from each other. They stared at each other intently, their eyes clashing.
"Micken, prepare to die."
Cang Jue spoke first, his tone relaxed, as if he did not regard him as an opponent.
The other tribes of orcs followed closely behind. These animals were all new to Guo Xiaoxiao—rabbits, sheep, horses, bears—and there were even herbivorous orcs! They were easily identifiable in human form; the horses and bears looked majestic and powerful, while the rabbits and sheep had gentle and peaceful expressions.
Wow, so handsome! My god, one of the basic talents of orcs is that they are born good-looking. Looking around, there aren't any rabbits or sheep that are ugly. They are gentle, gentlemanly handsome men. Although they are obviously thin, it still can't hide their gentle and refined manners.
The once deserted territory of Mingbei was now filled with a vast horde of beastmen. It had been a long time since such a scene had been witnessed; even the beastmen who hadn't participated were now buzzing with excitement at this duel.
Some voices were heard in the crowd
"Tell me, which female is so charming that she forced the chieftains of the Sishui and Yushan tribes to duel over her?"
"I don't know. She's a new female. I don't know where she came from, but she's exceptionally beautiful. The beastmen from the Yushan and Sishui tribes say she's the most beautiful female they've ever seen."
"They're dueling for her today, the female must be here. Let me see where she is."
A bear-like beast actively searched for Guo Xiaoxiao's figure.
"There it is, completely covered up so you can't see it."
"You're a bit thin. Are you really that pretty?"
…
Guo Xiaoxiao's gaze shifted to Mickelson. "Please, I hope nothing bad happens to him."
"Mickelson"
Xiaoxiao
Mickelson happened to be looking at her too, and smiled and nodded, revealing his clean, white teeth. His features were deep and handsome, his eyes sparkling like obsidian, filled with confidence, and the curve of his lips added to his charm.
Mikel, standing to the side, felt a sense of relief upon seeing Guo Xiaoxiao.
So handsome, this man is really something...
Guo Xiaoxiao's cheeks flushed, and she shyly looked away.
Cang Jue noticed that Guo Xiaoxiao wasn't paying attention to Mickson's flirting, so he turned his head to look at her and frowned.
"Hey, female, the outcome isn't decided yet. Why aren't you looking at me? Why are you staring at him?"
Tch… Guo Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes, not wanting to pay any attention, and turned her head to continue watching Mickelson.
By this time, Miksen had already left the orcish crowd.
Mickelson gestured to Guo Xiaoxiao that she didn't need to worry.
Then he began to provoke, loudly declaring to Cang Jue.
"Cang Jue, today is your death day."
Cang Jue snorted coldly.
"Mickelson, do you think I'd give you a chance?"
I will rely on my abilities.
"Enough talk, let's get started."
The orcs consciously stepped back, giving Miksen and Cangjue enough room to maneuver.
Mickelson was a burly man with agile movements, every motion exuding explosive power. His attacks were extremely sharp and ferocious, each strike potentially fatal.
"Go to hell!"
Mickelson's furious roar shook the heavens.
Cang Jue dodged with ease, his movements exceptionally agile.
Guo Xiaoxiao opened her mouth wide in surprise and asked the orc next to her.
"Isn't there a referee? Aren't we going to count to three and start?"
"Okay, let's fight."
The orc was completely focused on the battle and didn't hear Guo Xiaoxiao's words.
In the struggle, Cang Jue did not gain the upper hand at all, adopting a defensive posture. Mikson pressed forward all the way, forcing Cang Jue back step by step.
Mikkelsen's strength was immense, and his attacks were fierce, brutal, and merciless.
Cang Jue's footwork was light and graceful, dodging with effortless ease, displaying an air of confidence and composure.
Neither of them has transformed into their beast forms; they are currently facing off in human form. However, it's hard to say who will win, as they are near the Mingbei, and Cang Jue is sure to have some trump cards up his sleeve.
"Bang!"
Mickson raised his leg and kicked Cang Jue in the abdomen. The kick was so fast that Cang Jue couldn't dodge and was hit. He immediately retaliated by punching Mickson in the shoulder.
At this moment, the two began to enter their beast form. Miksen's muscles bulged, transforming him into a tiger beast, while Cang Jue's body also grew larger, becoming an eagle beast.
Their gazes, one in the sky and one on the ground, collided, sparking intense flames.
"Whoosh—whoosh—"
