310: Chapter 310 A Shocking Move

Chapter 31: A Showy Maneuver

Jin Yi shook his head. "Even without the matter involving Xiong Zong, something else would have happened. The feud between our Tribe and the Bear Clan has lasted for over a hundred years; it has nothing to do with you."

As those few words were spoken, the remaining high-tier Black Bears had already reached them.

Jin Yi did not want Bai Wanwan to be sad, so when he saw the Black Bears attacking, he proactively stepped forward to intercept them, buying time for Zhu Xiu. "Go, quickly! Staying here only leads to death."

The Bear Clan had hidden their strength; they had at least dozens more Yellow-Tier Males than expected.

No matter how they fought, they were bound to lose.

However, Zhu Xiu's presence significantly alleviated the pressure.

Jin Yi turned his head in astonishment to look at him, only to see him blocking the attacks of seven or eight Yellow-Tier Males, completely unscathed.

But he didn't have time to look further, as he was soon surrounded once more.

Pfft...

Jin Yi was ambushed by two Black Bears, and his sternum nearly shattered.

His body was a mangled mess of blood and flesh.

Yet Jin Yi simply gritted his teeth, rolled once on the ground, and scrambled back up to continue the fight.

Zhu Xiu looked back and saw the hideous wounds on his body, blood staining the ground.

He immediately said to the Golden Lions behind him, "Injured Males, fall back! Take your Young Clan Leader back for treatment!"

"But... if we fall back, you'll be in great danger."

This foreign beastman was willing to risk his life to help them, and they were already deeply grateful. How could they leave him to face the Black Bear Tribe's siege alone?

Zhu Xiu had no time for more words. He turned around, his snake tail sweeping toward the approaching Black Bears.

At the same time, he barked coldly, "Take him away!"

Gritting his teeth and filled with gratitude, a Golden Lion and another Tribe member helped the Young Clan Leader up and quickly retreated from the battlefield.

Meanwhile, the remaining Golden Lions nearby drew closer, joining Zhu Xiu to resist the Bear Clan's assault.

Sensing Zhu Xiu's combat power, more and more Black Bears began to surround him.

Zhu Xiu charged alone into the mass of Black Bears. Facing the swarming Bear Clan Beastmen, a cold, grim smile curled on his lips.

In the next second, a dense poisonous mist billowed out from around him, sweeping across the battlefield like a tide of death!

"Ah!"

Screams rang out one after another. Low-tier Bear Clan Beastmen were killed instantly, while the high-tier ones turned pale-green, their movements becoming sluggish.

Zhu Xiu moved like a phantom, using both his venomous fangs and sharp claws. Every strike precisely harvested a life.

In the distance, the expressions of the Bear Clan Beastmen changed drastically. "Not good! The Golden Lion Tribe has a Male with Orange-Tier Talent! He's slaughtering our Yellow-Tier Males!"

"What? An Orange Tier Male?"

The Bear Clan Leader's face paled as he looked toward the center of the fray.

Zhu Xiu stood amidst the corpses, surrounded by swirling poisonous mist, looking like a god of death.

In the blink of an eye, many Bear Clan Beastmen had perished.

The Bear Clan Leader took several steps back.

He had made every preparation for this attack, with the goal of annexing the Golden Lion Tribe in one fell swoop.

Therefore... they knew exactly how many Yellow-Tier Males the Golden Lion Tribe had.

They hadn't heard anything about them having an Orange Tier Male.

Had he known this earlier, he wouldn't have dared to attack the Golden Lion Tribe at this time, even if he were ten times bolder.

The wind and snow continued to rage, and the sounds of slaughter on the battlefield were incessant.

Bai Wanwan watched from afar as the figure gradually became obscured by the surrounding Black Bears, her heart pounding wildly.

Xin Feng gripped her hand tightly. "Don't be afraid. I'll go help him."

Even though Zhu Xiu was an Orange Tier Male, facing the siege of so many Bear Clan high-tier ability users was still very dangerous.

Bai Wanwan instinctively grabbed him. If Xin Feng didn't go, Zhu Xiu was in danger.

If Xin Feng went, both would be in danger.

Just then, Yan Lie's voice came from beside her. "Wan Wan, do you still have that Itch Powder you used before?"

At Yan Lie's mention, Bai Wanwan's eyes lit up like stars. "That's right! We can use Itch Powder!"

Bai Wanwan immediately opened her system space.

Itch Powder was cheap, so she exchanged for dozens of packets in one go.

Looking at the Itch Powder in Bai Wanwan's hands, Xin Feng reached out to take it, but Yan Lie grabbed it first.

"Xin Feng, you stay and look after Wan Wan. I'll go."

Something had happened to Wan Wan twice while she was with him; he didn't even have the confidence to protect her properly himself.

But he was fast. He didn't need to fight; as long as he scattered the Itch Powder, he could ensure his own safety.

After speaking, Yan Lie turned to leave.

"Wait," Bai Wanwan called out to him. She stepped forward, hugged his waist, and kissed his cheek. "You must ensure your own safety. If you encounter danger, come back immediately. Also... don't get this Itch Powder on yourself, or you'll be miserable too."

"Okay, I'll be careful."

Yan Lie gave her a firm hug. Then, under his Consort's gaze, he straightened his back and strode heroically toward the battlefield.

Charging out of the Tribe gates, the Snow Leopard's form darted like lightning through the combat zones, heading toward the clusters of Black Bears.

The injured Black Bears catching their breath in the rear never expected a beastman to dare cross the middle ground and charge right up to them.

After a moment of staring at each other, a Black Bear roared, "Kill him!"

Dozens of Black Bears closed in on Yan Lie.

Yan Lie had no intention of fighting them. What if he got injured and couldn't complete the mission?

So he immediately dodged, while simultaneously tearing open the Itch Powder in his hand and tossing it toward them.

The pursuing Black Bears were caught off guard, their open maws catching a mouthful of powder.

Pah... Pah...

"What is thi—"

Before he could finish, the tongue of the Black Bear who ate the Itch Powder began to swell, and an agonizing itch started spreading from his tongue...

In the blink of an eye, one Black Bear after another collapsed, rubbing against the ground to relieve the itching...

"This stuff really works."

Yan Lie chuckled. As other Males who hadn't been affected by the Itch Powder surrounded him, he quickly tore open another packet and scattered it...

"Come on! Everyone, have a taste!"

Yan Lie didn't linger. Whenever a circle started to form around him, he would throw out two packets of Itch Powder and continue to the next spot.

After running a large lap around the outer battlefield, he only had two or three packets of Itch Powder left.

The Black Bears fighting on the front lines noticed the emptiness behind them. Looking back, they saw their clansmen all rolling on the ground. They immediately lost the will to fight and retreated in terror.

The remaining Golden Lions looked at each other in bewilderment.

Yan Lie's showy maneuver had long since been spotted by the Bear Clan Leader.

He was about to explode with rage. Why were this Cobra and this Snow Leopard interfering in the feud between them and the Golden Lion Tribe?

Crucially, just the two of them had dealt a heavy blow to his clan.

Where on earth did these beastmen come from?

"Go, kill that Snow Leopard!"

Over ten Yellow-Tier Males charged toward Yan Lie.

Yan Lie had just incapacitated another group of Black Bears and was thinking about heading back to claim his reward from Wan Wan when he turned around and found himself surrounded by over ten Black Bears.

Yan Lie gripped the last packet of Itch Powder in his hand.

The Black Bears were standing scattered; one packet of Itch Powder simply wouldn't be enough.

If he were facing two or three beastmen of the same tier, he'd have no problem fighting one-against-three.

But now there were over ten. It was better to run...

"Uh... I'm just passing through, you guys carry on..."

With that, he spotted a gap and tried to bolt.

But the moment he moved, several blasts of Innate Ability attacked him...
