Chapter 1075: The Superior Leader (24)
Ming Shu didn’t have the time to look for Yun Huang outside the valley. The other major tribes had surrounded her.
They discussed for a long time and decided to act today.
However…
Yun Huang disappeared today.
“Leader… there are shapeshifters everywhere.” The frightened screams of her clansmen could be heard all around her.
There was only one entrance to the valley but the shapeshifters could climb over the walls.
They were surrounded.
“What are you all nervous about?” Ming Shu was calmed. “Call Wen Nuan over.”
Wen Nuan was bandaging up the injured man. When she heard that the valley was surrounded, she threw the man down and followed the shapeshifter to find Ming Shu.
“Leader… are you looking for me?”
Ming Shu turned and looked at her. She grabbed her arms.
Wen Nuan felt nervous for some reason. She held her breath. What was she going to tell her?
“Go and prepared some food.”
Wen Nuan: ????
She ordered her in a serious tone.
She called her over just to tell her this? Was she serious? They were surrounded by shapeshifters!
“Hurry up and go.” Ming Shu turned Wen Nuan around and pushed her.
Wen Nuan: “…”
Wen Nuan walked out in a daze. She heard Ming Shu shouting behind her, “Come and collect your knives. We will go out and slash them to pieces.”
…
Hu Jiu and Cang Xiu were among the people who led the attack. Nie Fan was not present.
Ming Shu gathered her clansmen and walked to the entrance of the valley.
Her clansmen carried knives and stood behind her. The shapeshifters couldn’t help but took a step back.
Both parties looked at each other silently.
“Yao Luo, today will be your death day.” A shapeshifter finally couldn’t stand the silence anymore and shouted at her.
“I have a question.”
Ming Shu’s tone was lighthearted. But, everyone listened to her.
The black dog leader walked forward with his hands behind his back. He scanned the shapeshifters behind her with cold eyes. “What question?”
Ming Shu tilted her head. “Why did you all choose to surround me at night?”
What kind of question was this?
What was the point of asking the question?
Shouldn’t she ask why they surrounded her?
The black dog leader sneered. “Is that important?”
Ming Shu smiled. “I am just curious. It is not polite to disturb people’s sleep.”
Can’t they fight in the morning? It is not as though they needed to hide their ident.i.ties. Why must they attack at night?
What if we hit the wrong person due to the darkness?
Hu Jiu shouted, “Don’t mess around with her. She is trying to buy time.”
Hu Jiu wanted Ming Shu dead. She wanted Wen Nuan to die too.
She could only feel at ease if Ming Shu was dead.
Ming Shu looked at Hu Jiu and smiled. Under the moonlight, her smile seemed eerie. Hu Jiu wanted to leave this place.
However, she remembered that the entire valley was filled with their people. There was no way Ming Shu could escape.
The black dog leader and Hu Jiu exchanged glances with each other. The black dog tribe warned her for the last time, “I suggest that you don’t retaliate. If you do, your whole tribe will be gone.”
“I am antic.i.p.ating how you will destroy my entire tribe.”
Ming Shu’s tone was arrogant.
Even her own clansmen couldn’ bear to listen to her.
In terms of numbers, they were not their opponent’s match.
“Hmph.”
The black dog leader raised his head. A few wolves howled in the woods around the valley. The howls came from everywhere.
After the sound disappeared, Ming Shu saw fire on top of the valley.
With the current weather, it was easy to start a fire in the woods. The night wind accelerated the spread of the fire. In the blink of an eye, a huge part of the woods was in flames.
“Fire…”
“Leader…”
“This place has been the home of the peac.o.c.k tribe for many generations…”
Her clansmen were all furious and agitated.
They were forcing them to a dead end.
The shapeshifters opposite Ming Shu shouted, “Kill Yao Luo for the beast G.o.d!”
“Come on then. What are you shouting for? Will I die from your shouting? The sky is dark, why are you still daydreaming? You can be naive but you need to look innocent first.”
Ming Shu’s words destroyed the atmosphere.
“Charge!”
The black dog leader gave his order.
The shapeshifters rushed at Ming Shu fiercely. The vicious looks in their eyes showed how much they wanted to tear her apart.
Due to the advantage in numbers, the shapeshifters were confident.
After all, in gang fights, the side which had more people would normally win.
However, their opponent was Ming Shu.
Hu Jiu reminded the shapeshifters to beware Ming Shu’s knife. But, in the actual fight, they realized that the knife was not that easy to dodge.
It was not only hard, it was sharp too.
The moment they touched it, it would make a cut on their body.
The shapeshifters were still stuck in the Stone Age. They had never seen this kind of weapon before.
The shapeshifters fell one by one.
Ming Shu moved toward Hu Jiu.
Shua—
The knife slashed down. The air around it vibrated.
“A-Xiu!” Hu Jiu shouted in fear.
Cang Xiu came over and pulled Hu Jiu away. They rolled on the ground. Ming Shu’s knife cut into the walls of the valley.
Loose rocks fell down. Ming Shu turned around and slashed her knife in the air again. The cold light from the knife flashed across the valley. It landed in front of Hu Jiu.
The shapeshifters who came to help them gave Hu Jiu and Cang Xiu some time to breathe. With their help, they ran away to the side.
“A-Xiu!”
Hu Jiu suddenly shouted.
Cang Xiu’s body flew out. He smashed into the rock wall and fell to the ground.
“Little cutie, it’s your turn now.”
The voice seemed to come from right beside her ear.
She turned her head instantly. Something flashed past her eyes. Her vision turned blurry.
Boom!
She landed on her back. Her back hurt from the broken rocks on the ground.
“How dare you try to kill me with this amount of people.” Ming Shu looked down at Hu Jiu. “Are you looking down on me?”
I am worth at least a thousand mounted troops!
“Yao Luo…” Hu Jiu squeezed the two words out of her mouth. She glared at her with hatred.
I’m going to kill her!
Kill her!
The shapeshifters beside them charged at her. Ming Shu finished them off while pressing against her.
Hu Jiu was frightened.
Is this the kind of strength a shapeshifter should have?
Is the witcher spirit so powerful?
This is not the time to think about this.
I need to leave.
Hu Jiu looked across at the other side. Cang Xiu was unconscious. Useless!
He couldn’t even win against a female.
Hu Jiu’s hand touched her dress, made from animal skin. Her eyes narrowed. When Ming Shu was fighting the other shapeshifters, she quickly took out something wrapped in a leaf from the pockets of her dress.
“What is this?” A clear voice came from above her.
Hu Jiu got a shock. She gritted her teeth and sprinkled the things inside the lead.
Ming Shu saw the powder flowing into the air. It landed on the ground…
