At this moment, the leading Flying Centipede flew towards it.
This guy was the last one Chen Fan had tamed. It wasn’t injured at all, and after feasting earlier, its aura was extremely strong.
The Black Ring Giant Snake raised the upper half of its body, looking very much like it was facing a formidable enemy.
"Are you with them?"
The leading Flying Centipede asked.
"No, no."
The Black Ring Giant Snake quickly shook its head.
"I don’t know them at all."
"Then why are you here?" The Flying Centipede’s numerous eyes glinted coldly.
As it spoke, another two Flying Centipedes, each 15 or 16 meters long, approached from behind, encircling the Black Ring Giant Snake.
The remaining smaller Flying Centipedes also watched intently from the periphery.
"This is bad, really bad."
The Black Ring Giant Snake silently cursed its misfortune.
Had it known this would happen, it would have never come down alone to investigate.
If there was just one centipede, it was confident it could escape even if it couldn’t match the other’s strength.
But now, there were so many of them.
Now it’s trapped, surrounded by them.
"I, I was just passing by, really just passing by."
It hurriedly explained, "You probably don’t know, there’s a big battle breaking out outside. I originally lived nearby, and when this happened, I had to escape quickly, so I just happened to pass through here. Bosses, let’s talk this out, I truly mean no harm."
It lowered its upper body, sprawling flat on the ground.
In its view, it was just a coincidence these guys appeared here. Meeting them was just bad luck for those burrowing Fierce Beasts.
However, with so much food around, these creatures should not target it. As long as it kept a low profile, it should be able to leave.
Once it left, it would report what happened here to the Beast King. But these guys, especially the leading one, seemed almost as strong as its own Beast King. Even if the Beast King knew, there wasn’t much he could do.
But knowing was still better than not knowing.
"Is that so?"
The leading Flying Centipede said and suddenly lunged forward, biting down hard.
The Black Ring Giant Snake was caught off guard, its proud scale armor proving useless. Blood gushed out.
At that moment, the other Flying Centipedes also pounced, biting it from all sides.
The Black Ring Giant Snake convulsed in pain, its tail whipping at the attacking Centipedes.
But their bodies were incredibly tough, and its tail only sparked a series of fireworks when it struck them.
"Despicable!"
It roared, spewing a massive amount of toxic fog in a desperate bid to drag its attackers down with it.
However, in the next moment, the Centipedes pulled hard, tearing its body into pieces.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
The Black Ring Giant Snake, after all, was a Beast King-level Fierce Beast. Despite its dire condition, it wasn’t dead yet. It looked at the leading Flying Centipede and spoke with difficulty, "Wh-why? I have no quarrel with you."
The latter swallowed the flesh and blood in its mouth and looked at it impassively, "Master has ordered that any Fierce Beast that enters here must be killed without mercy."
"Ma-Master?"
The Black Ring Giant Snake’s eyes widened.
Could it be that guy?
In its mind, the image of Chen Fan appeared.
How, how could this be?
A mere human, controlling several Beast Kings?
Its vision went black, and it lost all signs of life.
"So this is a Beast King-level Fierce Beast? It really tastes different." One of the Flying Centipedes remarked.
"Yes, much better than those other guys. I think we should eat it first and then continue with those others," another Flying Centipede said, tearing a piece of flesh from the Black Ring Giant Snake and swallowing it.
"If only more of these guys would come. Why don’t we go out? I sense there’s a lot of delicious food outside, not much worse than this."
"No."
The leading Flying Centipede swept its gaze over them, "Remember what the Master said. We’re in charge here. If we leave and another Fierce Beast comes to attack the city, what then?"
The other Flying Centipedes immediately discarded the thought.
Yes.
They didn’t dare disobey the Master’s orders, or their lives would be in jeopardy.
Besides, staying here was pretty good. There was plenty of food, much better than their previous place.
The Flying Centipedes devoured the Black Ring Giant Snake’s corpse, then flew back to their hill and resumed feasting.
On the ground above.
The Ice Blue Giant Snake had no idea what had transpired below, nor did it know that its companion had already become someone else’s meal.
It looked at the Sword Qi Field in front of Anshan City, its eyes filled with a heavy expression.
Clearly, things were not as simple as it had thought.
The human warrior stationed here could continuously use that move. If this continued, even the Mid to High-level Fierce Beasts would suffer heavy casualties.
At that point, even if they killed that human warrior and conquered the city, the King wouldn’t be satisfied.
And what if the opponent could use it a third time?
Except for it and Old Hei, the other Fierce Beasts would be wiped out. If it were the King, it would be furious, too.
"It seems I’ll have to step in personally."
A gleam flashed in the Ice Blue Giant Snake’s eyes.
In front of the city walls.
Several Top-level Fierce Beast Commanders had already thrown the remaining ordinary Fierce Beast Commanders into the Sword Qi region.
The outcome was evident.
Before they even touched the ground, the ordinary Commanders were melted by the Sword Qi.
"Roar!"
The Golden Giant Ape suddenly turned, looking at a group of High-level Fierce Beast Commanders behind it.
It seemed to be saying, "It’s your turn next."
The other Top-level Commanders also directed their gaze at the High-level Fierce Beast Commanders.
They didn’t believe the human on the wall could continuously use such a powerful move.
As long as they threw the remaining High-level Commanders in, it would exhaust the human’s strength.
Then they would attack and tear everyone inside the city to pieces.
The High-level Fierce Beast Commander under the Golden Giant Ape’s gaze prostrated itself on the ground, letting out a series of cries.
Of course, it was begging, hoping not to be thrown in.
"Roar, roar, roar."
"Roar, roar."
The other High-level Commanders also made noises.
They knew if their companions died, their turn would be next.
Some even suggested that they should all go together.
The Sword Qi ahead surely couldn’t stop them all.
However, the Top-level Commanders were disdainful.
They didn’t want to take a risk, especially in a situation where it wasn’t necessary.
"Roar!"
The Golden Giant Ape roared again, issuing a final warning.
If the others didn’t enter willingly, it wouldn’t hesitate to throw them in.
Although this was a bit strenuous, given that High-level Commanders weighed two or three times more than ordinary Commanders, it was still manageable to throw them a few dozen meters.
"These Fierce Beasts are truly despicable."
The people on the city wall watched the scene, and someone couldn’t help saying, "They’re too afraid to go in themselves, so they make the weaker ones go first."
"Yeah, really despicable."
"If you ask me, these High-level Commanders have no courage. At this point, what is there to fear? They should just fight back. If they advance, they’ll surely die, but if they retreat, there’s still a chance."
"Exactly, it’s all the same death. What is there to fear?"
At that moment, a blue figure swiftly approached.
The Top-level Commanders immediately realized something and prostrated themselves on the ground in fear. The Golden Giant Ape was no exception.
More than a dozen High-level Commanders, upon seeing this, cried tears of joy.
"It’s a Beast King-level Fierce Beast!"
When the Ice Blue Giant Snake appeared, the city wall fell silent.
