Lory also peek behind the boulder 'What an ugly creature' the beast look disgusting she didn't even want to get close to it, the beast suddenly stop their feast they sniffing around using their hairy big nose, suddenly Zhao Li Xin sprinkle a white powder on her then he sprinkled on him too.
Mong Yi and the others also sprinkle the same powder on their body, then the beast stop sniffing around when the foreign odor suddenly disappeared.
The creature snort then it continues its feast, Zhao Li Xin gives lory the bottle jade he sign her to keep it in her ring, she nods at him obediently.
Zhao Li Xin then waves his hand at mong ki and Mong Yi, both of them jump out from behind the wall, in a high speed they kill all the beast who still busy on their feast.
The creature can only shriek when mong Ki chop off their heads while mong Yi slices them cleanly like sushi, in a minute everything done, Mong Yi swings his swords from the creature bloodstains before he sheathed his sword.
Zhao Li Xin sees the gruesome remain from the corpses, human limbs are everywhere and the smell is horrible he worries with Lory but thankfully she remains calm although her eyebrows knitted when she sees the corpses.
"Are they kill by that beast?" Lory covers her nose with her palm.
"No, I think it's another beast who kills them, that ugly beast it's just vermin they eat carcass from other beast leftovers" Jin Hao explained.
"This is the white jade pavilion member corpses, some are from the other sect" Bei Li Yan squat down on the corpses remains he used his knife to check the remain jade placard on the corpses.
"Let's go!" Zhao Li Xin did not bother with the corpses, he doesn't want to let her stay in this disgusting place any longer, but suddenly they hear screams from behind.
"AAAGGGHH!!"
That familiar annoying sounds they knew all too well resounded, Jin Hao roll his eyes with irritated looks, Bei Li Yan feel upset he clicks his tongue loudly, Mong Ki and Mong Yi look each other then they sigh, Zhao Li Xin frowned deeply he looks very annoyed, Lory turn around and there she is the stupid princess of Liang Zu, Ming Ru Yi.
She was shocked by the remains carcass, she doesn't know which first she needs to cover her eyes or her nose, her hand keeps moving between her eyes and his nose she forgets she has two hands.
All the soldiers including General Fu hold their tongue but deep down everyone unanimously agrees she needs to cover her 'Damn' mouth first.
"UGH, what is that? Is that a hand? It's disgusting, is that blood?" she keeps on shouting nonstop.
"SHUT UP!!" Zhao Li Xin holler, he can't stand it her voice anymore.
Ming Ru Yi immediately covers her mouth, she looks at Zhao Li Xin with fright, she didn't understand why he angry with her when she's so scared, should he comforting her first. Her moist with tears she puffs her cheeks with a dejected expression that lory admitted 'she looks cute'
"If you can keep your mouth shut, I cut your tongue!" Zhao Li Xin hissed, what he hated the most is loud voice and stupidity and Ming Ru Yi is the embodiment of everything he hated.
Something fall on Lory's shoulder, Lory frowned where this grovel coming from, she thought just when she looked up she sees black shadow hide behind the boulder, she doesn't know what is that but it has a lot of feet and definitely not human.
"Mmm…guys, something is coming!" Lory draws her arrows immediately.
"Something indeed…" Jin Hao looks up and draws his sword.
"WHAT, WHAT IS IT?" Ming Ru Yi got panic when everyone draws their weapons.
"Princess, stop yelling, your voice is like a dinner bell for them…." Lory hush the stupid princess
The princess clenched her mouth, even though she didn't like Lory but she scared with the beast so she quiets down, behind her back the soldier looking at her with a blaming look.
'This princess would be the death of them'
All of a sudden someone screaming and his body pulls up to the ceiling they can only see his feet dangling and kicking in panic, it's happened to quick no one have time to react.
"UP THERE!!" one of the soldiers shouted, people who wield bow shoot the arrow on the dark figure on the ceiling after few shots a black figure fall from the ceiling to the ground.
Everyone approach it closely, the creature looks like a spider with five eyes scattered on its face, it got smallmouth but has small sharp teeth, it also has six small legs.
"Another ugly creature," Bei Li Yan said with disgusted, and everyone agrees with him.
"Uh-oh" Lory gasped.
On the ceiling hundreds of more black creatures swarmed, the sounds of their feet and their shriek give frights to everyone immediately all of them look up to the ceiling.
Another man pulls up by invisible string leaving only desperate screams "ARCHER!!" General Fu shouted, in a flash, a dozens archery aim to the creature on the ceiling, one by one the creature falls from the ceiling but it's the creature didn't back down on contrary they become more aggressive, some of the creatures jump from the ceiling and punch to one of the archery faces.
Lory draw three arrows at the same time, she killed the creature who jump to one of the soldiers and kill more to other creature who try to punch the other soldiers, the soldiers look at her with grateful, Lory nods her head then she continues to aim for more creature.
Bei Li Yan uses his whip makes a barrier around him and manage killed dozens of the creature in one swing, Jin hao also killed a dozens more with one slash with his swords, thanks to them the area around Lory is clean make her easier to aim but for some reason the creature is not getting lesser on contrary they number become increasing.
"It's not good, too many of them!" Lory's stamina already decreased from all the shooting.
"Milord, I think the creature lure by their carcass smelled!" Mong Ki said while cutting the two creatures at once.
"Canibal again?" Lory perplexed, then she released her arrows with nausea looks.
"Everything is a cannibal in here," Jin Hao said calmly, he pierces his sword to the ground and the creatures who swarmed around him suddenly freeze and next moment Jin Hao slash the frozen creature into splatters.
'Nice trick!' Lory amazed.
Zhao Li Xin annoyed by the creatures who didn't stop punching at them "Hide….." Zhao Li Xin pushes Lory's shoulder lightly away from him.
"What?" she confuses, but Bei Li Yan and the others look terrified, they immediately jump behind the boulder next to them.
Mong Yi took Lory wrist "Milord said, HIDE!" his eyes assured her to comply.
"EVERYONE HIDEEE!!" Bei Li Yan warned General Fu and his soldiers from behind the boulder, they don't know what happened but, Zhao Li Xin and his people had helped them many times so they listened to them without question.
All of them hide behind the boulder and stone wall, while Zhao Li Xin stands alone on the center he opens his arms and fire engulf on his hand just like a torch.
He takes a deep breath and the flame on his hand become bigger and bigger it's the temperature around them increase rapidly, then he releases his fire from his hands and the fire spread as if it's alive, the fire engulfs the ground and the ceiling it burned the creature in a second into a dust nothing remain from them.
the creatures eventually run in a frenzy but the flame is faster then them, in a second all of them burned away. Zhao Li Xin stood there among the fire like 'King Yama' himself has come from the deepest hell hole to grace this world with his wrath.
Only after there's no sound from the creature, Zhao Li Xin takes another deep breath and the fire was sucked back to his hand, then he takes long exhales, and the temperature becomes normal again.
