Chapter 421: Tricked!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
That night, Bai Di found Xuan Wei and told him about Shuang Yun’s plan.
Xuan Wei had doubts. “The plan is good, but I’m afraid that the other party won’t fall for it.”
Bai Di smiled. “It’s better if he doesn’t fall for it. We’ll just take this opportunity to fight the demons. We’ll think of a way to get rid of that traitor later.”
“Yes, that works.”
At the same time, the city lord of Blue Crystal City was lying in bed, unable to sleep.
He was feeling very irritable and uneasy. He especially wanted to find something to vent his anger on.
Distracted, he couldn’t sleep.
He sat up and shouted, “Someone, get in here.”
The beast soldier guarding the door immediately walked in. “What can I do for you, City Lord?”
“Get me a glass of water.”
The beast soldier poured a cup of water and handed it to him respectfully.
When the city lord took the cup, he accidentally saw the neck of the beast soldier. The irritable aura in his heart suddenly rose to the peak!
When he came back to his senses, he had broken the beast soldier’s neck. The soldier had fallen to the ground.
The beast soldier’s eyes were wide in disbelief. He died with his eyes wide open.
The city lord fell to the ground, his hands trembling.
He had only been distracted for a moment just now, but he had already killed a beast?!
What was even more terrifying was that while he was shocked, he did not regret it at all. He even felt a little happy.
After a while, the city lord gradually calmed down.
He couldn’t leave the body here. If someone else found it, it would definitely spell trouble.
The city lord lifted the hide rug and dug a deep hole with his claws. He threw the body in, filled up the hole with dirt, and used the hide rug to cover it. Everything returned to normal as if nothing had happened.
The city lord washed his hands, wiped the cold sweat from his face, and lay back on the bed.

This time, he finally stopped tossing and turning and fell asleep.
The disappearance of a beast soldier did not cause any waves in the camp.
Everyone was busy preparing for tonight’s raid. People were coming and going in the camp. A tense but thrilling atmosphere enveloped the entire camp.
The sky quickly darkened.
In the middle of the night, the city lord of Blue Crystal City led the vanguard army across the Black River. On the way, they were accidentally discovered by the patrolling demons. The two sides immediately fought fiercely.
The demon race’s camp was alarmed, and reinforcements quickly rushed over.
At the same time, Shuang Yun led the second group to help cover the city lord of Blue Crystal City.
The night wind blew, and the battlefield was filled with figures fighting. The sounds of battle shook the sky, and beasts kept falling into pools of blood. The moon in the sky seemed to be dyed red by blood, revealing a strange bloody aura.
The other three city lords led their troops around the main battlefield and rushed into the camp of the demons.
They desperately destroyed the fortifications and captured the demons as captives.
Some of the demons tried to swallow the demon seeds to self-destruct, but they were knocked out first.
The city lord of Black Crystal City suddenly said, “I keep feeling that something is wrong.”
The city lord of Golden Crystal City looked at him. “What’s wrong?”
“Don’t you think there are very few demons here?”
As soon as he said that, everyone realized that the number of demons in the camp was pitifully small.
Other than a few demon beasts guarding the entrance when they entered, they almost didn’t see any other demons in the camp. The entire camp was very quiet. This situation was too strange.
The city lord of Earth Crystal City hesitated. “Perhaps the other demons have gone to fight Shuang Yun and the others. That’s why there’s no one in the camp!”
It sounded as if that was a possibility.
However, they still felt that the entire matter was strange.
Xue Ling led the feathered beasts past the main battlefield and flew toward the enemy camp. When he saw the empty enemy camp, his expression changed. “Oh no, we’ve been tricked! Let’s go back!”
As soon as they turned around, they bumped into the winged beasts flying toward them.
The winged beasts blocked their way.
Xue Ling was worried about Huanhuan’s safety, and his murderous aura was about to explode. “Get lost!”
…
Tonight, Shuang Yun, Xue Ling, and the others had gone to ambush the demons. Only a small number of beasts were left in the camp.
Huanhuan was worried about Shuang Yun’s and Xue Ling’s safety. She couldn’t sleep and got up in the middle of the night.

As she rose, Bai Di woke up as well.
“What happened?”
Huanhuan said in a muffled voice, “I can’t sleep.”
Bai Di immediately understood what she was thinking. “Shuang Yun and Xue Ling will be fine,” he comforted her gently.
Huanhuan pressed a hand to her heart and frowned. “I’m sure they’ll return safely, but I feel very uneasy. It’s as if something bad is about to happen.”
She paused and whispered, “I want to go out for a walk.”
Bai Di agreed.
He helped Huanhuan get dressed and led her out of the tent.
The camp was empty. Other than the beast soldiers on routine patrol, there was almost no one else.
Big Goody suddenly ran toward her.
Huanhuan was very surprised. “Why aren’t you asleep?”
Big Goody said, “We found something. Mom, come with me.”
Huanhuan didn’t understand. She and Bai Di followed Big Goody through most of the camp to the entrance of a tent.
Above the tent hung a piece of animal hide with a picture of an entelodon.
In the entire camp, only the city lord of Blue Crystal City was an entelodon. This tent was where the city lord stayed.
Huanhuan was very puzzled. “Why did you bring us here?”
“You’ll see when you come in.” Big Goody walked into the tent.
Curious, Huanhuan took Bai Di’s hand and walked in.
At this moment, there were no beasts in the camp. No one noticed that they had entered the tent of the city lord of Blue Crystal City.
After entering the tent, Huanhuan realized that Dos, Tres, and Little Monster were also here. They lifted the animal hide carpet, revealing a pit that had been dug.
There was a dead body in the pit.
Huanhuan was stunned when she saw the corpse.
Why was there a corpse in the tent of the city lord of Blue Crystal City?!
Bai Di jumped into the pit and examined it. “He was strangled to death. The other party was efficient and far stronger than him.”
Huanhuan looked at Big Goody. “How did you find this body?”
“We’ve been coming here to play ball recently, so we’re very familiar with the beast soldiers here. This beast soldier is called Yang Tiao. We greeted him yesterday, but we realized he was missing this morning. We asked the other beast soldiers around, but no one knew where he went. Later, the beast soldier who was staying in the same tent as him said that Yang Tiao was in charge of guarding the city lord last night. Hence, we suspected the city lord.”
In fact, Big Goody only wanted to look for the city lord of Blue Crystal City to confirm the whereabouts of Yang Tiao. However, after hearing the name, the city lord became very impatient. He even scolded Big Goody and got someone to chase her away.
