Chapter 1752: 1752
"A mere couple of trees actually dare to block our path? Dream on!"
The beast who had spoken earlier raised its talons and swiped it down .
Its talons were incredibly sharp, possibly on par with Great Sage artifacts . With its aggressive move, the surrounding space shuddered a little, and small pitch-black dimension rifts appeared in the air .
The talons and fangs of those from the Beast Tribe were top-notch materials for forging Great Sage artifacts . Furthermore, the beast wielded strength on par with the Five Monarchs . Even Sempiternal realm consummation master teachers would have trouble defending against its assault .
Under normal circumstances, such sharp talons should have been more than enough to tear the tree branches into shreds . Yet, before those talons could reach their target, a resounding 'pah' sound suddenly echoed in the air .
A glaring laceration appeared on the face of the beast . A tree branch had materialized from nowhere and whipped the beast right in its face!
"Roar!"
The burning pain on its face left the beast feeling deeply humiliated and frenzied . It swiped its claws furiously against the tree branches ahead of it, creating a nearly impregnable wall of attacks before it . Despite that, the tree branch was still able to slip past its defenses during crucial moments and accurately strikes its areas of weakness .
Before long, the body of the beast was already covered with glaring lacerations, and fresh blood flowed ceaselessly from its body .
Seeing that their leader was in a disadvantageous position, the remaining beasts immediately rushed forward to offer their support . However, as tree branches whipped through the air, it did not take long for them to be grounded on the floor, completely powerless to retaliate at all .
"This…"
Seeing such a sight, the eyebrows of the crowd twitched frenziedly . They were unable to believe what they were seeing .
Those of the Beast Tribe were known to possess superior physical prowess compared to average cultivators, yet they were all done in by a single apricot tree .
"Heh!"
Witnessing such a sight, the scholarly young man, Yan Xue, chuckled softly before closing his eyes, as if he had expected things to end in such a manner .
A young man from the Hundred Schools of Philosophers walked up to Yan Xue and asked with a suppressed voice, "Shall we make a move? If we could save them right now, we might be able to win their gratitude and successfully tame them . "
Considering how badly those beasts were being pummeled, if they could intervene at this moment and save them, it was very likely that they could win their goodwill and convince them to serve as their tamed beasts .
"There's no need for that . Putting aside the fact that it's uncertain whether we'll be able to save them or not, just the fact that we didn't stop them earlier is enough to turn their hostility toward us," Yan Xue replied calmly . "Besides, these apricot trees only serve to halt intruders from proceeding any further . They won't kill anyone, so you don't have to worry!"
"Alright then!" The young man nodded .
It was indeed likely that those beasts would harbor some grudges toward them for not stopping them when they attempted to advance earlier . Even if they were to step forward and save them right now, those beasts would only take it as if they were trying to humiliate them . In the worst-case scenario, the beasts might even direct their wrath toward them!
"Those beasts won't be able to get away . Once we succeed, they will follow us around obediently . Then, we won't be able to shake them off even if we want to…" Yan Xue chuckled softly .
At this moment, however, a young man at the very back of the crowd suddenly dashed forward as swift as a bolt of lightning .
Hu!
In the blink of an eye, he was already right before the beasts . He adeptly weaved a net using his zhenqi and dragged all of the beasts out of the attacking range of the apricot trees .
"Thank you for saving our lives…"
Knowing that the young man was trying to save them, the beasts turned to him with looks of gratitude . However, contrary to expectations, the young man suddenly dashed right into their midst and…
Pilipala!
Fists and kicks were hurled here and there .
The beasts were stunned .
Those from the Hundred Schools of Philosophers and the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe were stunned as well . Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
They had thought that the young man had saved those beasts in order to win their goodwill and successfully recruit them to his side . Yet, after saving them from the whipping branches of the apricot trees, he proceeded to pummel them by himself . What the heck?
The apricot trees also stared at one another in confusion . The tree branches that they had extended to teach the young man a lesson for interfering in their affairs retracted in apprehension .
They had thought that the young man was trying to save those beasts from them, but it turned out that he wanted to pummel them as well! Was it because their whipping had awakened something in the depths of his heart and he wanted to give it a try?
"This is our opportunity!"
Yan Xue was stunned for a moment before a confident smile crept onto his lips . He immediately turned to the other offspring of the Hundred Schools of Philosophers and urged, "Those beasts are being unjustly tortured by that young man over there! As long as we step forward to stop that young man, we'll be able to win their gratitude and loyalty!"
