Chapter 407: Chapter 407 - 399: Gang Beating

Several Feathered Beasts banded together to attack Lu Xiao!

The leading Roc was the largest, even bigger than Lu Xiao’s true form, with golden-brown feathers shining brilliantly in the sunlight, its wings and tail covered with feather-like golden blades, and its sharp claws easily tearing through the rocks!

Three or four other Rocs launched a fierce attack as well.

Surrounded, Lu Xiao was battered and bloody, fragments of blood-soaked feathers drifting through the air.

There was hardly a place on his body that was unscathed, even his sharp beak was chipped, with blood seeping from the corners of his mouth.

Lu Xiao’s eyes shone with an unprecedented ferocity as he stirred up a violent whirlwind around him, once again clashing with the enemies.

While he successfully knocked several Feathered Beasts into the valley, when facing the Golden-winged Roc, his heavily injured body could no longer hold out—

"Boom!"

Tian Lin’s final blow sent Lu Xiao crashing into the cliff a hundred meters away.

The massive impact directly collapsed a corner of the cliff top, with rocks pouring down like rain!

Lu Xiao’s massive body fell heavily to the valley floor, buried by debris, in such disarray that he was nearly unrecognizable, coughing up a mouthful of blood, barely clinging to life.

Tian Lin’s wild laughter resonated through the skies, "With just a mongrel like you, you want to contest with me?"

"This is your fate!"

"Today, I will completely resolve you!"

Tian Lin’s claws wielded powerful storm forces, forming blades intent on killing Lu Xiao on the spot!

Shen Tang’s breath nearly stopped.

She shouted, "Stop!"

Suddenly a female voice echoed through the valley.

The Feathered Beasts present were all taken aback.

Tian Lin turned to look at the unexpectedly intruding figure not far away, a hint of surprise even registering on his bird-like face, "Heh, your partner has personally come for you, I didn’t expect that!"

"But since she saw this scene, she absolutely can’t be allowed to leave here alive! Let her be buried with you!"

Tian Lin withdrew his gaze, looking coldly at the stunned Lu Xiao, wickedly smiling, "What a beautiful and kind little female! She could’ve lived well, but unfortunately for you, she’s going to die – your existence is a mistake, brother!"

"No! Female Master, don’t come over! *cough cough*..."

Whether due to urgency or pain, Lu Xiao’s eyes instantly filled with red, and a thick scent of blood spread from his throat.

The Golden Eagle flapped its wings, trying strongly to rise from the rubble, but the struggle only worsened his wounds, causing him to cough up another mouthful of blood, collapsing heavily back into the stones, his vision becoming increasingly blurred.

Tian Lin sneered, "Before that, I’ll send you on your way first!"

The sharp Wind Blade was aimed directly at Lu Xiao’s vital point!

At the critical moment, a wall of earth suddenly rose, barely blocking the lethal strike. Simultaneously, Shen Tang’s spiritual power formed into an invisible blade, shooting towards Tian Lin in the sky.

Caught off-guard, Tian Lin staggered, looking down in shock, "Spiritual power materialized? And possessing Earth Element Ability?" He squinted his sharp eyes, appraising Shen Tang with interest, "She’s pretty and so gifted... it truly is a pity to kill her."

Unfortunately, she’s the mongrel’s partner and just happened to barge in today and saw what he did. He absolutely can’t spare her; otherwise, he will be discredited!

Tian Lin let out a long cry, decisively abandoning the barely alive Lu Xiao, swooping down!

The Mid Ninth Rank Golden-winged Roc is nearly invincible among its peers.

The hastily erected earth wall by Shen Tang was easily torn apart by his claws, and the spiritual attack was deftly evaded.

In a swift and thunderous motion, Tian Lin seized her waist, and his massive wings flapped, carrying her rapidly into the skies!

Shen Tang, like a mouse-rabbit caught by an eagle, was held high in the air, looking down only to see clouds, frightened to the point her legs turned to jelly.

"The meddling little female, the consequence is death. Let me think about how to kill you?"

Tian Lin, spotting a storm vortex not far away, his eyes gleamed, maliciously smiling, "I’ve got it; I’ll throw you into the storm vortex. I want to watch your body be torn into pieces!"

Tian Lin grabbed her, swiftly flying towards the vortex.

"No!"

Lu Xiao’s eyes were scarlet, his body suddenly erupting with a huge surge of power, doubling in size, undergoing a significant transformation.

His wings became sharper and slender, shining with golden light.

He transformed into a streak of gold, soaring into the sky.

Trying to retrieve the female.

Unfortunately, he was a step too slow.

Shen Tang was thrown into the storm vortex by Tian Lin, instantly swallowed by the vortex, disappearing without a trace!

"Tangtang!" A heart-wrenching scream erupted in the air.

Tian Lin looked at the rushing Lu Xiao in shock, wasn’t this mongrel about to be killed by him? How can he still stand up?

His body also underwent an earth-shattering change, his aura explosively increasing, making him feel a chill and fear.

No, impossible, absolutely impossible, he’s just a foreign mongrel!

Lu Xiao’s blood-red eyes were fixed on the direction Shen Tang disappeared, at this moment, as if the whole world froze. The heart-tearing pain nearly suffocated him, and every drop of blood was boiling and burning.

He suddenly turned towards Tian Lin, letting out a heart-wrenching roar,

"You deserve death!"

Lu Xiao went completely mad.

He ignored his severe injuries, attacking Tian Lin with a suicidal stance.

Recklessly, fighting like a madman, each strike carrying the hatred that could destroy the heavens and the earth, every move deadly, an unending fight!

Tian Lin was the esteemed eldest prince of the Golden Feathered Roc, his strength naturally unparalleled, even Ninth Rank Beastmen might not be his match, almost invincible within the Empire except for his mother and father!

Yet today, he was being pinned and beaten by a mongrel, unable to resist.

Tian Lin’s face was filled with terror, his whole body in disarray, beautiful and noble feathers scattered all around, resembling a chicken struggling before being plucked, his chest stained with crimson spots.

This time, he was truly afraid, for the first time in life feeling the threat of death!

This madman really would kill him!

Tian Lin struggled desperately, crying out in pain, "Stop! I’m the Prince of the Roc Clan, if you dare kill me—ah!"

Lu Xiao reverted to human form, landing a fierce punch on Tian Lin’s face, causing the sharp beak to snap! This punch, filled with towering rage, sent Tian Lin flying, crashing heavily against the stone wall.

"Boom!"

The solid wall was struck with a big hole, blood gushing from Tian Lin’s head.

At this moment, Lu Xiao was a far cry from his usual self—aggressive, mad, totally out of control!

Those blood-red eyes were filled with unending murderous intent.

He rasped out, word by word,

"I want you to pay with your life for her!"

Shen Tang was not dead; just before being thrown into the storm vortex, she dodged into space.

When she contacted the system to project the outside situation, she happened to witness this bloody scene, her eyes widened.

This... is this still Lu Xiao?!

The ever gentle, polite, stable, and reliable Lu Xiao in her heart, now like an uncontrolled beast, madly slaughtering!

She had never seen this terrifying side of him!

Meanwhile, outside the Trial Land, everyone saw a streak of gold emerging from within, like a golden blade piercing the firmament.

The clouds churned, the heavens changed color!

"Another newcomer has passed the trial!"

"Such commotion, I remember the last time this happened was decades ago when Your Majesty successfully cleared the trial."

"Your Majesty is a genius, the strongest Beastman of the Roc Clan in a century. Today’s great disturbance, surely it’s Crown Prince’s doing!"

The Great Elder, a loyal supporter of the Crown Prince, laughed heartily, boasting, "I’ve long said, the Crown Prince’s pure-blooded talent is unparalleled, the trial for him is a breeze, it’s definitely not comparable to that foreign mixed blood!"

"Let’s go, the trial is over, let’s quickly go greet His Highness and have a grand celebration!"
