Chapter 1564 - 30: Extermination of the Clan

Chapter 1564: Chapter 30: Extermination of the Clan

A violet gleam flashed in the witch’s eyes, as she was currently in a state of avatar fusion, her physical attributes not weaker than in close combat.

The witch raised her fair arm, and with a boom, the air around her exploded; it seemed this witch could manipulate the air.

At that moment, a spear silently appeared behind her, causing the witch’s cheek to twitch as she aimed her palm backward.

With a bang, a figure appeared out of nowhere, a large splash of blood scattered, an indigenous Tooth Bone tribe member had his lower body shattered by an air cannon, his eyes rapidly filling with blood.

"Balaka ja (Indigenous language: Be with me)."

The Tooth Bone tribesman with the broken lower body slapped the ground beneath him and lunged straight at the witch.

"Ka ya (Be with me)."

Dozens of figures emerged from the trees and vines around them, all looking at the Tooth Bone tribesman with the shattered lower body. Noticing this scene, a smile appeared on his face.

Bam!

Broken bones and rotten flesh flew; the witch took a step back, a few broken teeth embedded in her abdomen. Although the wound wasn’t deep, the mental blow was significant.

A thin figure dashed out, also pale, rushing to the pile of rotten flesh, taking several big bites, then looking at the witch with glowing red eyes; the previously deceased Tooth Bone tribesman was the child’s father.

Seeing this scene, the witch’s cheeks trembled. She had always believed that the madness of witches caused fear, but today, she realized that compared to the Tooth Bone tribe, witches weren’t insane at all.

The child who lost their father had no sadness in his eyes, only a stare at the witch.

"Balaka ja (Indigenous language: Be with me)!"

A series of loud shouts echoed around the witch; she let out a tragic laugh, aware of her doom. Not to mention a Fourth Stage Witch, even a Fifth Stage Witch wouldn’t dare confront the Tooth Bone tribe alone.

"Hu-man?"

A deep male voice came from above her. The witch looked up to see a human-like creature about four meters tall crouched on a tree trunk. Its skin was dark, more like a metallic sheen than skin-color.

The human-like creature leaped down agilely, standing in front of the witch, lowering its head to examine her, their eyes meeting. The creature’s ghastly white pupils made the witch shudder, a fear not from her heart, but from the depths of her soul.

"Strange, little thing."

The human-like creature seemed not too adept at human language, but it was learning at an astonishing pace.

"Tsk."

Faced with the creature’s condescending gaze, the witch’s expression turned grim. She could die, but not be scorned.

"Get lost."

The witch raised her hand, just about to blast the creature with manipulated air, a shadow appeared before her eyes.

Bam!

The sound of an air explosion echoed, but it wasn’t from the witch’s manipulation. Rather, it came from the human-like creature.

Droplets of blood splattered mid-air; the witch’s headless body fell to the ground. She never knew what happened from the beginning to the end.

The human-like creature tossed the head in its hand. Its four-meter stature made it look neither cumbersome nor clumsy, but rather proportionate. Its tall and robust physique was its advantage.

The surrounding Tooth Bone tribesmen gradually closed in, several tendrils extended from the creature’s fingertips, sinking into the witch’s head. Moments later, it discarded the witch’s head.

"So it’s a Spirit Condensation, similar to the growth mode of the Bado E clan."

The creature’s human language had become noticeably more fluent, its gaze sweeping around as its thick toes sank into the earth.

With a boom, an air explosion spread, and the creature vanished. When it reappeared, several Tooth Bone heads were in its hand, suggesting those Tooth Bones were confused.

Two hours later, the blazing fire illuminated the forest night. Within the Tooth Bone tribe, bodies lay scattered around the wooden tents. The creature held a Tooth Bone tribesman in one hand; its stature was so towering that the tribesman could only kick into thin air.

"Sakaminayite (Where’s the nearest human civilization?)."

Hearing the creature’s inquiry, the Tooth Bone tribesman in its hand paused, as this language was only understood by the Tooth Bone tribe.

"Spit."

Apparently, this Tooth Bone tribesman had a hard shell. With a crack, the head of the Tooth Bone tribesman was crushed. The creature’s nonchalant demeanor made it seem as if it was merely cracking a walnut.

The forest fire gradually devoured over a thousand bodies, as the creature walked unhurriedly through the flames. Such heat from the fire was merely warm to it.

...

Three days later, on the Dark Raven Continent, in the west, the Yage Gobi.

Fierce wind swept with large grains of sand drumming against a carriage, crackling loudly.

Inside the carriage, Su Xiao repeatedly examined the map in his hand, feeling puzzled. According to the map’s directions, he should head straight to Westport. How could he have ended up in a desert?

"Are you sure the route is correct?"

Su Xiao glanced at Meilodi, noticing her frequent absent-mindedness since they entered this desert.

"Absolutely sure, but... "

Meilodi hesitated, and a grin appeared on Su Xiao’s face. Seeing him smile, Meilodi shivered. From days of interaction, she knew if she continued to hesitate, she would be in trouble. Last time Su Xiao smiled at her like that, she was hung at the back of the carriage all night.

"If, and I mean if, when we meet Witch Queen Morisa, can I avoid her? We have a bit of...a small grudge."

Meilodi smiled charmingly, clearly lacking confidence.

"Let’s hear it."

"It’s nothing really, just when I was escaping from Westport, you know, as a helpless woman, I needed travel expenses, so I stole something from Witch Queen Morisa..."

"That’s it?"

Su Xiao’s smile became even more ’gentle.’

"That thing...is a bit important to Witch Queen Morisa. I swear, just a tiny bit important."

"..."

Su Xiao said nothing, the implication clear: if Meilodi continued to hem and haw, she’d experience the exclusive suspension for a night as a ’VIP treatment.’

"It was just stealing Witch Queen Morisa’s heirloom, passed down for nine generations..."

Meilodi grew more nervous as she spoke. Imagining the loss of a nine-generation heirloom, Witch Queen Morisa wouldn’t just skin her.

"Where is it now?"

"Lost it..."

Meilodi shrank back, more frustrated by this. If nothing went wrong, it should be in the southern part.

"Is that all?"

Su Xiao looked at Meilodi in confusion. He thought she might have attempted to assassinate Witch Queen Morisa, while the eavesdropping Bubu Wang rolled its eyes. It had assumed it was something major. Speaking of stealing treasures, it knew someone more professional.

As the two talked, the sandstorm outside the carriage eased. Meilodi quickly leaned out the window.

"Stop, ahead is Westport. Proceeding further will get us detected."

Su Xiao also looked outside the carriage. He did not see the sea, only a vast expanse of mountains. However, judging by the fluctuations on the mountains, they had reached Westport.
