Chapter 1182: A little Competition
The Young lord looked at all the executives and they couldn’t help but shiver in fright. His gaze itself is making even the superior cultivators a bit scared.
After all, he is but an Astral Plane Pre-transcendent cultivator. But he got authority that no one else does in the sect. He is the invincible and indisputable lord of this city and he also had considerable authority in the adjoining two cities.
He couldn’t tolerate the disrespect and the damage to his pride caused by Sam, Noah, and Kumar’s actions.
He is boiling with rage and on top of all that, the torture he regularly does to his mother as a part of the routine has to be postponed because of this whole incident.
He is in a very bad move.
"Send the Python guards and the Bee guards together. I want everyone related to the incident caught and I will kill them myself personally."
"But, Lord. The two guards are the main force of the city, if both of them goes to the rear side of the city, we wouldn’t be able to deal with any attacks that might come from the front side."
"Of course, we can. All the administrators will go do the guard duty tonight. You know what, not just tonight. The administrators will do the guard duty until the whole case was over. So, go and guard the gates on both sides while those two guard groups go and do what I told them to do."
The officials looked at the person who spoke with angry gazes. He really had to ask that.
"I am going to my Mother’s chambers. No one shall disturb me."
The Lord turned around and said before leaving the room.
With that, the two most powerful guard units of the city left the city through the rear gate going towards the location where the Spider guards were sent to.
Sam who came to the path to send the captives off is still standing there and after half an hour of waiting, he managed to get a glimpse of the two guard units coming towards them with his telescope.
He went back to his partners in crime and said.
"More reinforcements are coming. It seems like the other party understood that something is seriously wrong here. So, they sent more people.
One group has bees with them while the other group has Pythons with them. Both beasts are not exactly of a large size and are not suitable for traveling. But they can be put to good use in the creeks with the narrow area."
"So, what are we going to do?"
"Go into the creeks and lure them there."
Kumar was dumbfounded with the answer and Noah’s expression is not any better.
"They are good in that terrain and you want to drag them inside."
"Of course, I want to drag them inside. After killing three hound guard units and one spider guard unit, they would definitely be cautious. The only way they would be confident in fighting us is if they are confident about the location of the battle.
Anyway, if we lure them to that area, we would catch them off guard and by surprise. They would also think that we dealt with the first two guard units that are not really good in that terrain by utilizing the same trick. So, they would be more confident."
"Doesn’t that seem too farfetched?"
"It is. But it might work. Anyway, it doesn’t matter much to us, does it? All it would take is a few minutes of extra time."
*CRASH*
As soon as the voice ended, there is a crashing sound of the pillar and from the left. That was where Kumar was. He already made a move as soon as he made the deal.
He could also hear some rumbling sound from the left side where Noah is. She is also using her vines.
Sam smiled and used his earth element to create a stone platform from the pillar that could accommodate him enough to stand there.
He took out his bow and aimed at the Bee nearest to him.
He used a cursed arrow and shot it.
But to his surprise, the Bee managed to dodge, the attack, but he didn’t worry as the attack landed on the python.
When the attack landed on the python, the dark elemental energy turned into a puff of black smoke and entered its brain making its eyes turn black.
It then lunged forward and swallowed the bee that just dodged the arrow.
The guards who are barely able to notice the arrow coming didn’t even have time to reach and search for the shooter before the clash between the bee and python happened.
The python is trying to swallow the bee as a whole while the bee is using its stinger to get out of the tough situation.
The two guards who are the owners of the two beasts, couldn’t even make the beasts get out of the fight. The remaining guards managed to come out of the daze and looked around vigilantly, they particularly kept an eye towards the possible route.
But they couldn’t get a glimpse of Sam from the position they are in, because, Sam made another platform on the other side of the pillar and shifted on to it immediately.
He then jumped to a different pillar and created a platform before shooting again.
This time, the bee dodged once again, but the cultivator fell prey for it and he swung his saber onto the dodged bee from the rear. The wings were torn immediately making the bee fall on the ground and the cultivator shifted his saber to the guard standing next to him.
The saber landed on the shoulder-grazing past because the other party dodged it.
Sam took advantage of this and shot another arrow onto the bee that fell on the ground with broken wings.
A vine came out of it and attacked the python’s tale nearby.
He then shot the same python with a cursed arrow which then turned attention to its own contractor and tried to swallow him.
Sam shifted from that spot and jumped to a new pillar from where he shot at the guards.
Within a few minutes, the six guards and twelve beasts are dealing with each other with their backs wide open to him and he finished the injured ones himself with the arrows.
He came down on harbinger to collect the bodies and moved to a different spot. He already let out the surveillance, but the only problem is that he gave crystal tablets to his partners in crime as well.
So, the competition would be a bit tough.
But this is exciting as well and the real tough time is for the guard teams that came unknowingly into the trap of three killers who are using their lives as determining factors for a bet on who could take the life of their boss.
