Chapter 144 Tong Ying’s humiliation!
"Li Lan!"
Li Ziru shouted loudly, and a large, agile leopard emerged from the darkness. A very complex bone whistle sounded, and Li Lan was like an arrow released from a string, turning into a black shadow in the darkness.
Immediately afterwards, the bone whistles of Colum and other Beast Tamers sounded one after another.
A moment later, screams of terror were heard from the fire-filled forest from time to time.
When Tong Ying heard this voice, he didn't panic at all. Instead, he showed a strange smile, "Use the round thorn wheel to resist the beast!"
At his command, the well-trained members of the Xishan tribe took out a wooden wheel full of spikes from somewhere and protected the outside of the team.
If any trained animals wanted to attack them at this time, they would definitely be injured by the sharp wooden thorns on the round wheel!
This is a very effective defensive measure against large tamed beasts, and it was developed by Tong Ying after a long period of research.
Sure enough, after using the round thorn wheel to resist, the beast trainers of the Beast Taming Clan were at a loss as to where to start.
For a moment, calm returned to the team and everyone thought the crisis was over.
Tong Ying led his tribesmen forward again.
"Li Ziru, you're quite amazing!"
In the darkness, Tong Ying's shouts penetrated countless trees and came behind Li Ziru and others.
He stopped and looked behind him. The man was far away, riding on a tall horse, shouting at him.
"Over the years, there has been no one else who has dared to venture into my Xishan territory except you!"
"I can't believe you have such courage at such a young age!"
"To be honest, I admire you!"
His voice was getting closer and closer behind him, and it was becoming increasingly difficult for Li Ziru to control himself. Hatred and anger overwhelmed him, and he even wanted to rush over and kill the man immediately!
But he can't!
He still has his tribe to protect, and he has to lead the Beast Tamer Tribe back to a stable life!
He pretended not to hear anything and ran as fast as he could with Yazhi Gelun and the others. However, they were advancing in the dark, unfamiliar with the road, and their speed was no match for the Xishan tribe, who were familiar with the terrain and had the aid of lights.
Colum looked at the Xishan people who were getting closer and closer. He stopped and stopped several other beastmasters.
"Colon, what are you doing?!" Li Ziru felt uneasy.
"Young clan leader, we are just a small role in the Beast Tamer Clan. The Beast Tamer Clan can do without us, but not without you!" Colon said.
They have to stay to buy time for Li Ziru!
Only when the tamer is closer to its master will it be easier to control and disrupt the Xishan people's formation again.
"Colon! Let's go together!!"
Li Ziru went back to pull him, but he pushed her away.
"Young Clan Leader, hurry up! The Beastmaster Clan needs you, you can't act on impulse at this moment!"
Colum looked at him, with five beastmasters from the Xishan tribe following behind him. He looked calm, without any fear or hesitation, as if he had put life and death behind him.
"Colum! But you..."
Li Ziru was about to say something when Colum interrupted him, "Young Clan Leader, hurry up! Right now, notifying the clan members to fight is the most important thing!"
"Li Ziru!"
Tong Ying's voice rang out again, "As the young leader of the Beast Tamer Clan, you should know that as a leader, you should put your people first, right?"
Li Ziru hid in the darkness, veins bulging on his face.
"I told the little girl beside you that if you agree to my request, I can stop attacking the Beastmasters and let the two tribes make peace!"
"Would you like to consider it?"
Requirements? What requirements?
Li Ziru looked at Yazhi with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Yazhi, what does he mean?"
Yazhi was pale and silent.
She couldn't say those words. She was afraid that if she said them, Li Ziru would go crazy!
"Yazhi?" He looked at her in confusion, not understanding why she was hiding it?
"Young Clan Leader, what he said is pure nonsense! There's no way our clan will agree to it! You can't agree to it either! Don't listen to him, let's go!"
Yazhi reached out to pull his hand, wanting to take him away, but it was obvious that he didn't mean that.
He shook off her hand and was about to ask again when Tong Ying's voice rang out again.
"Li Ziru, I, Tong Ying, as the leader of the Xishan tribe, swear on the entire Xishan tribe that as long as you agree to my request, the Xishan and Beastmaster tribes can absolutely live in peace and there will be no more disputes!"
When these words were spoken, even Columbine and other tribesmen were shocked. They looked at Yazhi in disbelief, eager to know what Tong Ying's conditions were.
After all, compared to the well-being of their fellow tribesmen, they can accept any sacrifice!
Maybe, they don't have to fight!
"Miss Yazhi, what exactly are Tong Ying's conditions?" Columbus couldn't help but ask.
Yazhi closed her mouth tightly, she couldn't even say those words.
Seeing this, Li Ziru became a little anxious, and looked at Yazhi with a bit more suspicion in his eyes. "Yazhi, what are you hiding?"
He risked the lives of his people to save her, not for her to hide it from him!
This concerns the life and death of the Beast Tamer Clan!
Although it was dark at night, Yazhi could still hear the disappointment and indifference in his voice.
Is he doubting her?
"I……"
She was speechless. She wanted to speak, but the words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them.
"Ya Zhi!"
At this time, Tong Ying's voice sounded again.
"How about it? Li Ziru, what do you think of my proposal? Are you willing to accept it?"
In the dark forest, except for the bright fire on the side of the Xishan people, it was pitch black in front. Tong Ying couldn't even see where those people were hiding.
He actually shouted this to make Li Ziru reveal his position.
"Have you thought it through? Which is more important, taming the beast or your tribe?"
Tong Ying's voice was still echoing in his ears. Li Ziru was extremely anxious listening to those incoherent words.
"Yazhi, tell me, what's going on? What exactly did he mean?!"
He clamped her shoulders tightly with both hands, and he didn't even realize how much strength he was using.
Yazhi felt as if her shoulders were about to be crushed, and the severe pain made her frown.
"Say it!"
His voice was still pressing in her ears, and the strength in his hands kept tightening. She was in so much pain that she could hardly breathe.
Colum couldn't stand it any longer. "Young Patriarch..."
"I said……"
Yazhi's slightly trembling voice sounded, pulling Li Ziru's mind back from a state of confusion.
Seeing her face filled with pain, he realized how much he had lost his mind!
"Yazhi, are you okay?"
The strength in his hands disappeared, leaving only a faint tenderness as he gently rubbed her shoulders.
Yazhi stepped back, freeing her shoulders from his grasp.
"He told me that as long as I promised to hand over all the tamed beasts of the Beast Tamer Clan, and let him kill them all in front of the entire Xishan Clan..."
She paused, lowered her eyes, and continued, "In this way, he will agree to find a place for us in the Xishan tribe, so that we can live and work in peace and contentment..."
After the words were spoken, there was a dead silence.
"This Tong Ying is really going too far!" Columbus cursed angrily.
No wonder Miss Yazhi couldn't bring herself to say it. Is this a condition? This is clearly a humiliation to the Beastmasters!
This is to make their people surrender unconditionally and hand over the trained beasts, so that the Beast Taming Tribe will become their Xishan Tribe's eternal subordinate tribe, or even slaves!
How dare Tong Ying bring this up?!
