Chapter 113 - A Narrow Escape
Chapter 113: A Narrow Escape
She initially thought that it would be that man. Unexpectedly, it was Flying Bird. When she noticed the man inside, her eyes lit up. After all, men were especially rare here. Although he was wearing a mask today, his imposing robust figure was still very tempting.
The women behind Flying Bird were already staring at him with blazing eyes.
Jin Chao frowned and was very unhappy with their expressions.
Flying Bird turned to Xia Muqing and asked angrily, “What trick did you use just now? Why did you intrude on the territory of the Goddess Clan?”
Xia Muqing quickly scanned her troops and tried to calculate her probability of winning.
Hearing her question, she smiled and said, “It’s just a small illusion trick. Aren’t you Shamans the most skilled in sorcery? Can’t you see through a small illusion?”
Now, she could only stall for time.
When Flying Bird heard that, her expression became even more furious. “We despise such despicable methods for our sorcery.”
Xia Muqing snorted with laughter.
After saying that, Flying Bird felt uncomfortable as well. Their spells were indeed despised by everyone, but it wasn’t their place to gossip.
“Go and capture them. Kill the woman and I’ll reward the man to you.”
Flying Bird took a step back and gave the space to the people behind her.
The women’s eyes lit up as they surrounded Xia Muqing. If there were only Xia Muqing and Jin Chao here, escaping wouldn’t be a problem. However, there was still the Azure Cloud Eagle couple.
The Azure Cloud Eagle couple couldn’t help but say, “Flower, leave first. Just help us take care of our son.”
Xia Muqing ignored them and retreated slowly with them. When she saw the pool behind her, her eyes lit up. She picked up a stone and placed it above the pool. “Take another step closer and I’ll throw it down.”
Flying Bird’s expression stiffened. She wanted to step forward to stop her, but she pretended not to care and said, “Do you think I’m afraid of you?”
But Xia Muqing noticed the change in her expression just now. The glint in her eyes flashed and she said, “Is that so? I’ll throw it then.”
The stone in her hand was covered with a thick layer of silt. This secret room was filled with silt, but only the surroundings of the pool were clean. Even the walls of the pool were spotless. It was obvious that someone had cleaned it every day to maintain this level of cleanliness.
As Xia Muqing moved, the sludge on the stone in her hand fell bit by bit. Just when the sludge was about to enter the pond, Flying Bird quickly attacked and hit the sludge accurately with the whip. However, after the bit of sludge exploded, it still fell into the pond.
Flying Bird’s expression turned panicked. She glared at Xia Muqing and hissed threateningly, “You sl*t. If the great Magus God is affected by you, I’ll skin you alive.”
Xia Muqing wasn’t intimidated by her at all. She grinned brightly and said, “I see. Then let us go. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee that my hands won’t tremble.”
As expected, Flying Bird didn’t dare to infuriate her anymore. She coldly made her clanswomen retreat and said, “I allow both of you to leave, but these two Azure Cloud Eagles must stay.”
Xia Muqing moved her hand closer to the water and said, “That won’t do.”
Flying Bird could only agree and she made way for them.
Xia Muqing stayed where she was and signaled to Jin Chao with her eyes.
After Jin Chao left with the Azure Cloud Eagle couple, Flying Bird glowered at Xia Muqing with hatred. She was contemplating about how she should deal with this bold sl*t later.
After they left, Xia Muqing waved her hand and said, “I’m very worried when you look at me like that.”
Flying Bird replied, “Don’t worry, I won’t stop you.”
Although she said that, she was indeed waiting for Xia Muqing to leave the pool and capture her immediately. As for the man and the Azure Cloud Eagles who had just left, as long as they didn’t leave the territory of the Goddess Clan, they wouldn’t be able to escape from her.
