Er You’s pupils shrank .
As he was about to say something, suddenly the air whistled, shining, and something strange cut at him .
Er You felt danger instinctively and moved to one side with Hu Jiu in his arms .
The passage between the cells was quite narrow, and Ming Shu’s one big move directly split the neighboring cell’s door into pieces .
Er You stared at the weapon in Ming Shu’s hand fearfully .
This thing…
If it could be used to deal with other shapeshifters…
“Yao Luo,” Er You uttered anxiously, “calm down . Let’s negotiate . ”
Ming Shu only smiled and rushed over with the machete .
“Stop her!”
Er You ordered the shapeshifters behind him to come forward .
“Stop her quickly!”
Er You rushed out of the cell with Hu Jiu, meanwhile the other shapeshifters poured in and trapped Ming Shu inside the cell .
“Er You… Cang Xiu, Cang Xiu is still in there . ” Hu Jiu grabbed Er You by the shoulder and looked inside the cell . But it was hard to tell if the concern on her face was true or not .
Er You frowned instinctively when hearing Cang Xiu’s name .
That wolf…
He’d better die in there .
So Er You just pretended he didn’t hear what Hu Jiu said and continued retreating outside .
“Leader, what’s going on?”
The clansmen outside saw Er You hurry out, so they gathered up . They were all very beautiful .
There was no need for Er You to explain . The cell was built in a cave, and right now a girl was walking slowly out of the cave exit .
The sunlight fell and shone brightly against the blade .
All eyes were on her .
It was Yao Luo…
They wouldn’t mistake that face, but at this time Yao Luo seemed not to be Yao Luo .
What was that in her hand?
“Take her!” Er You ordered in a low voice .
The clansmen looked at each other . Since the leader had given such an order, they naturally dared not disobey, and they were ready to go up to capture Ming Shu .
“Er You, what’s that thing in her hand?” Even though Hu Jiu was reborn, she didn’t know what was in Ming Shu’s hand .
“I don’t know . ” Er You looked at the battle that had been started over there, strange emotions glistening in his eyes .
Hu Jiu frowned .
She also felt a little odd and worried .
But thinking that there were so many shapeshifters in the tribe, she didn’t believe that Yao Luo would defeat all of them .
Yet apparently, Hu Jiu had underestimated Ming Shu—and her machete .
Defeating a flock of peacocks was just as easy as peeling radishes .
“Er You…” Hu Jiu seemed to be frightened and tried to seek protection from Er You .
Er You held Hu Jiu in his arms . “Yao Luo, they’re all your clansmen, how can you do that!”
Ming Shu replied to Er You with action .
She threw a shapeshifter back into its original form, then smiled . “Just like that . ”
Er You: “…”
How did she come to be like this?
Did that thing in her hand give her confidence?
Hu Jiu obviously thought of this as well . She got closer to Er You and said, “Er You, we should do something to grab that thing out of her hand . Without that, we have nothing to fear . ”
That thing was powerful .
Er You didn’t refuse Hu Jiu’s suggestion .
With such weapons, their tribe would no longer have to endure threats from other tribes .
But how could he grab it?
Er You let Hu Jiu go and made her stand aside .
Hu Jiu pulled the animal skin that Er You gave to her over herself casually, covering the private parts .
She was still in pain and walked slowly to Er You’s back, watching Er You walk over with squinted eyes .
Er You tipped the clansmen nearby, signaling for them to drag Ming Shu .
The peacock kind was not good at fighting . Even though Er You was the clan leader, he was also like that .
Several shapeshifters joined forces but still couldn’t do anything to Ming Shu . Instead, they were all thrown onto the ground into their original forms, lying there helplessly .
Seeing the situation had gone wrong, Er You got ready to retreat .
Ming Shu smiled at him, then grabbed Er You by the arm and gave him an overarm throw . Er You was smashed to the floor and turned into his original shape all at once .
“Yao Luo!”
Hu Jiu’s voice came from the side .
Some sparkling liquid fell in the sun like a shining diamond .
Ming Shu just looked up and watched, curling the corners of her mouth slightly .
It was the beast spirit herb’s juice . As long as she touched it, she would turn into her beast form and lose mobility .
Hu Jiu was sure that she had used enough to turn Ming Shu back into her beast form several times over .
The liquid, however, seemed to be blocked by something in midair, and all the liquid bounced back .
Hu Jiu couldn’t dodge in time and was caught right under them .
A sense of anesthesia spread all over Hu Jiu .
Before the shock in her eyes could fully unfold, the person was gone in the spot .
There was only a snow-white fox left on the ground, lying there, limp and weak .
How could it be…
Hu Jiu moved her head a little .
Not far away, the girl still kept her head slightly up . She seemed to be enveloped in a translucent layer of air .
As the sunlight flowed with the air, the girl seemed to have also been dyed with a saintly glow .
She didn’t like this female shapeshifter called Yao Luo .
Not only because she liked Er You .
It was because of her appearance .
“What sorcery have you used!” Hu Jiu supported her body and spoke with difficulty . “Yao Luo, have you been controlled by a witcher spirit!”
She wasn’t like this before .
She must’ve been under the control of a witcher spirit .
It must be like that…
What the shapeshifters feared most was witcher spirits, much like humans feared ghosts or evil spirits .
Whether they existed or not was another matter .
Anyway, they could just blame all kinds of strange things that they didn’t understand on witcher spirits, and many shapeshifters had died of this crime .
Ming Shu lowered her eyes and looked at Hu Jiu . “If witcher spirits have that power, they would rule the world . ”
The girl had a smiling voice which was very pleasant to listen to .
Ming Shu walked up to tie Hu Jiu up . “Relax . I’m not gonna kill you . ”
I won’t kill my snacks coupon so casually .
“Yao Luo, stop it . Leave Jiu alone . Stop it!”
Er You roared beside them .
He stared at Hu Jiu tightly, trying hard to get up .
Ming Shu threw the tied-up Hu Jiu to the ground, turned her head to look at Er You, then said gloomily, “By the way, you murdered my father, so… Should I get my revenge conveniently?”
Er You was frozen still with shock .
She…
How could she know that?
“What are you talking about…” Er You denied it . “Your father was killed by the leopard tribe . We all know what happened in those days . ”
“Oh . ”
Ming Shu looked at him with a faint smile, as if whatever he said was just a joke in her eyes .
She knew everything .
Er You calmed himself down . “I raised you for so many years and treated you like my own sister, this is how you repay me?”
“Or what, I should wait for you to send me to the neighboring shapeshifters and get ruined?”
Er You’s averted his gaze . “That’s for the tribe . You’re also a member of the tribe and should be responsible for the safety of the tribe . ”
He kept her in the first place because he was thinking of such a day .
“Okay then, I’ll take the snacks…” Ming Shu paused and changed the word calmly, “take my responsibility . ”
“You…”
The girl spoke with a smile . “Thanks for taking care of my peacock tribe for so many years . I’m just taking my right of inheritance back, is that too much?”
If the Host’s father weren’t dead, it must have been the Host who inherited the peacock tribe .
This sounded reasonable .
Er You: “…”
