Chapter 262 Challenge Ryan
With everyone's best efforts, the originally chaotic space vortex finally gradually stabilized. In the depths of the vortex, a dazzling light penetrated the layers of fog, looming, as if guiding them to escape from this dangerous place. Chen Xian, Lucy, Mad Wolf and Old Fox supported each other, dragging their exhausted bodies, and struggling forward in the direction of the light.
Finally, they stepped out of the space vortex, but before they could recover, a strange and oppressive atmosphere hit them. They were in a mysterious ancient forest, filled with the smell of decay and dampness. The thick ancient trees blocked out the sun, making the light in the forest dim, adding a bit of mystery.
Before they had time to observe the surrounding environment, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from all directions. Then, a group of nimble lion guards appeared like ghosts and surrounded them in an instant. These guards exuded a powerful and frightening aura, the sharp weapons in their hands flashed a cold light, and their eyes were full of vigilance and hostility, as if Chen Xian and others in front of them were sworn enemies.
"Who are you? Why did you break into the forbidden area of our lion tribe?" A deep and majestic voice sounded in the silent forest, shaking the air around. A tall and sturdy lion with muscles as hard as steel slowly walked over. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and every step was steady and powerful, as if he was stepping on everyone's heart. This man was Ryan, the first warrior of the lion tribe.
Chen Xian looked calm, took a step forward, clasped his hands together, and said respectfully: "Sir, we did not mean to offend you. It was actually when we were avoiding the enemy's pursuit that we were accidentally sucked into a space vortex and ended up here by mistake."
Ryan snorted coldly, his eyes full of suspicion: "Humph, that's easy for you to say. How can you be so easily drawn into a space vortex? You exude a strange aura, and your spiritual power fluctuations are extremely strong. Who knows what conspiracy you are harboring."
Seeing this, Lucy hurriedly stepped forward and explained anxiously: "It really is a misunderstanding. We have no ill will towards the Lion Clan. We have been looking for the secret of the Qingqiu royal jade pendant, so we came here by accident." As she spoke, she carefully took out the half of the mysterious jade pendant.
The moment Ryan saw the jade pendant, a hint of subtle surprise flashed across his eyes, but he quickly regained his indifference and dignity: "No matter what your reasons are, breaking into the forbidden area violates the rules of my lion clan and is unforgivable."
Mad Wolf could no longer suppress his anger. He clenched his fists, his aura suddenly increased, and the hair on his body stood up slightly in anger: "Why, you lions are indiscriminate and want to attack us?"
For a moment, the atmosphere was tense, the auras of both sides collided with each other, as if sparks were flying in the air, and a big battle was about to break out.
At this critical moment, Old Fox's steady voice broke the tense atmosphere: "Warrior Ryan, we are well aware of the importance the Lion Clan places on the forbidden land. But we do have an important mission, and perhaps we can find a mutually beneficial solution."
Ryan frowned, and his eyes swept over everyone like a sharp blade, as if he was weighing the pros and cons. After a long while, he finally spoke in a low and firm voice: "If you want me to let you go, it's not impossible. But you must help us accomplish one thing, otherwise, no one will be able to walk out of this forbidden area alive."
Ryan looked back and forth at the mad wolf. When he saw the mad wolf's human hand that had not yet fully transformed into a beast, his eyes suddenly focused, and he seemed to have an idea in his mind. "You," he pointed at the mad wolf, "go into the underground cave of this forbidden area." His voice was cold and unquestionable.
Mad Wolf was startled, his eyes full of doubt and vigilance. Before he could ask, Old Fox's face turned pale. "You...you are going to use the blood of half-blooded orcs to feed the legendary beast!" Old Fox's voice was trembling. "I thought it was nonsense at first, but your request now makes me believe it."
Everyone was shocked when these words came out. Lucy raised her eyebrows and immediately objected loudly: "This is absolutely not possible! How can we let the mad wolf do such a thing and become food for the monsters!" Her cheeks were slightly red because of anger, and her eyes were shining with determination.
Chen Xian stood aside, still with a faint smile on his face. He nodded slightly, silently expressing his approval of Lucy.
Lucy took a deep breath, took a step forward, straightened her back, and said loudly to Ryan: "I, challenge you to the orc sacred challenge Dabovo!" Her voice was crisp but powerful, echoing in the forest.
Mad Wolf's eyes widened, his face full of surprise and disbelief. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Lucy's arm, saying anxiously: "Lucy, don't do this for me! This is too dangerous!"
Lucy turned her head and looked at Mad Wolf with a firm gaze, and patted his hand gently, "I have to do this for my friends." There was a reassuring power in her eyes.
Although Chen Xian did not object, he quietly walked to Lucy, held her hand, and with a faint light flashing on his fingertips, he quickly carved a magic sharing array on her palm. "With this, I can provide you with magic at any time." Chen Xian whispered, his voice was light but full of power.
When Ryan heard Lucy's challenge, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Well, since you overestimate your own abilities, don't blame me for being rude. You asked for this." He poked the weapon in his hand hard on the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
