Chapter 473: Beast Fight
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When the dozen or so people were pushed into the colosseum, the audience in the stands fell silent.
They had come here for the beast fight performance. They did not expect a battle between a beast and humans to suddenly happen.
A guard helped the dozen or so people remove the shackles around their necks.
They had been given freedom after a long time, but they could not be happy.
Because the big and strong tiger was watching them not far away.
They looked up and found Princess Ni Yang among the many onlookers. They hurriedly ran to the edge of the Bestial Battle Arena and knelt down and kowtowed to Princess Ni Yang in the stands, begging, “Your Highness, please spare us! We know our mistake. We won’t dare to do it again!”
Only then did the onlookers notice that Princess Ni Yang had actually come.
The already silent atmosphere became even quieter.
Yu Niaoniao could not help but ask, “Your Highness, what are you doing?” Princess Ni Yang looked down at those people and said slowly.
“These people were originally servants of the princess’s residence. They should have obeyed me. However, they accepted Cheng Qi’s bribe and actually tried to poison the food and wine to harm me. How can I let such traitors off easily?”
Yu Niaoniao came to a realization. After the birthday banquet ended, the princess’s residence was cleaned up by Princess Ni Yang. Those people who had been bribed by Cheng Qi were all exposed.
Initially, Yu Niaoniao thought that those people would be killed by Princess Ni Yang as an example.
Unexpectedly, Princess Ni Yang actually brought them into the Bestial Battle Arena.
It seemed that she didn’t just want those people to die. She wanted them to die slowly in extreme pain and fear. In the end, they would die in an incomplete state.
Princess Ni Yang noticed Yu Niaoniao’s expression and smiled.
“Do you think I’m cruel?”
Yu Niaoniao did not answer.
Princess Ni Yang said, “Why don’t we make a bet? If they survive this duel, I’ll let them live.”
Yu Niaoniao asked, “Do you think they can survive?”
“Why can’t they survive? If Ah Juan could survive at such a young age back then, why can’t so many adults? They can’t be worse than a child, right?”
It would have been fine if Princess Ni Yang did not say this, but once she did, Yu Niaoniao felt even worse.
The reason why the Bestial Battle Arena repulsed her was that this place reminded her of Xiao Juan’s encounter when he was young.
He had also been forced to duel with beasts. He had also struggled desperately on the line between life and death.
Yu Niaoniao could not help but speak, “I don’t understand. Why did you treat Duke Lang like that?”
Princess Ni Yang was puzzled. “What did I do to him? Didn’t I just throw him into a cage and let him play with a tiger for a while?”
Yu Niaoniao looked at her in disbelief.
“You think that’s playing? That’ll kill him! ”
Princess Ni Yang said, “That tiger wasn’t even an adult yet. It might not be able to bite him to death. Alright, let’s not talk about this. The performance is about to begin. Let’s watch the performance.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the tiger in the colosseum began to move.
It charged at the men, moving extremely fast.
The men were unarmed and could only run as fast as they could. Probably out of instinct for survival, they ran as fast as they had ever run in their lives. They were actually able to keep a distance from the tiger.
They ran around the Bestial Battle Arena without being able to let the tiger catch up.
Princess Ni Yang chuckled when she saw this.
“You can’t just think about escaping. I didn’t sit here just to watch such a boring game of cat and mouse.”
She glanced at the female official beside her and instructed calmly, “Don’t let them run away again.”
“Aye. ”
The official passed on Princess Ni Yang’s order.
Then, a guard from the princess’s residence raised his bow and aimed at the people running for their lives. He shot an arrow and hit one of them in the calf.
The man screamed and fell to the ground.
Before he could get up, the tiger had spread itself over him and snapped his neck in one bite.
In an instant, blood splattered.
The audience in the stands cried out in horror.
Some timid women covered their eyes and cried softly.
They liked to watch beast-fighting performances, but this did not mean that they could accept the scene of a living person being bitten to death by a beast.
After all, they were humans themselves. They would have empathy for their kind.
After the tiger bit that Derson to death. it ate his corose on the SD0t.
The sound of sharp teeth snapping bones and flesh being chewed made the scalps of the audience in the stands tingle and their backs break out in cold sweat.
Usually, when they saw the big tiger bite other ferocious beasts to death, they would cheer it on and think that it was especially impressive.
However, now that they saw it eat a human thigh in two or three bites, the audience did not even dare to breathe loudly, afraid that this ferocious tiger would rush to the stands and bite them to death.
After eating that person, the tiger continued its unfinished hunt.
The guards of the princess’s residence raised their bows and stared around the arena. If anyone dared to escape again, they would shoot at that person.
Those people could not escape, so they could only risk their lives to fight the tiger.
However, they were unarmed and had never practiced martial arts. How could they be a match for that big tiger?
Next was the tiger’s one-sided torture of that group of people.
Screams and cries kept coming from the colosseum, mixed with the sound of a tiger biting off bones.
The smell of blood became stronger.
Yu Niaoniao felt her stomach churn and wanted to vomit.
She didn’t dare look anymore. She turned her head away.
The dozen or so people were quickly bitten to death by the tiger. The ground in the arena was already red with blood, and the remains of some broken fingers that had not been eaten clean were scattered everywhere.
Princess Ni Yang smiled gently.
“Niaoniao, looks like you lost the bet. They didn’t survive.”
Yu Niaoniao’s face turned pale. She did not want to say a word.
Seeing that she did not look good, Princess Ni Yang said considerately, “You don’t look well. Let’s go back.”
The female official walked forward and helped Yu Niaoniao stand up.
The audience was silent. They looked at Princess Ni Yang with fear.
After today’s incident, their fear of Princess Ni Yang would increase.
They walked out of the Joy Seeking Pavilion.
The guard followed with the tiger.
The tiger’s face and body were stained with blood. There was still wet blood dripping from his mouth.
Princess Ni Yang was clearly very satisfied with its performance today. She personally took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the blood on its face.
“Rouge is so obedient.”
Tiger, who was full, was in a good mood. He stood still and let the woman wipe his face.
At first glance, the scene seemed quite warm.
However, as long as Yu Niaoniao thought of the tiger devouring people just now, she felt very uncomfortable. That feeling of nausea surged up again, making her feel extremely sick..
