The Portal of Wonderland - Chapter 211

Chapter 211
Jin Xiao Chai’s complexion became ugly . Mo Ning and others stopped laughing . But, their eyes still revealed an enjoyable look… as if it was a nice play .




Shi Mu’s mood became funny due to Cai’s behavior .
However, he had brought this Cai with him . So, he didn’t have any other choice but to cup his hands towards Jin Xiao Chai . He then spoke in an attempt to resolve the matter, "Master Jin, please calm down . Your position is very honorable . So, I presume that you wouldn’t fuss over this useless parrot . "
"Oh, you’re right . An elder’s position is extremely honorable . But, you also heard the words it just spoke, right?" Jin Xiao Chai rolled her eyes . She then put down the whip from her hand, and said with a smile .
Shi Mu didn’t reply . But, a noisy voice resounded, "Shi Tou, you can’t listen to this woman . She wants to kill your Cai for sure . Cai is very obedient . And, Cai’s flesh smells very bad . Its taste isn’t good either . " The parrot lifted one of its wings, and put it in front of one of its eye . The traces of evil look had disappeared from its eyes as it looked towards Jin Xiao Chai . It then argued in a low voice .
Shi Mu became speechless . He could see that Jin Xiao Chai’s eyes were blazing with fury . It seemed that she was about to explode . Therefore, Shi Mu said in a stern voice before she could say anything, "Cai, Master Jin is an Elder Master of my sect . Her cultivation is much higher than that of mine . So, I can’t do anything if she wants to kill you and stew you in a soup . "
"Master Jin is superior . Cai was just joking with you . You mustn’t take offense . You’re so pretty and intelligent . Moreover, you’re such a brilliant Spirit Magician . How are you so fond of this Shi Tou…?" A frightened look appeared in the parrot’s eyes as it heard this . It then hurriedly spoke these words to please Jin Xai Chai .
"You’re being troublesome again . You don’t need to bother Master Jin . She has told you in advance that she would pull your feathers . " Shi Mu stared at Cai . And, this made Cai swallow the next word .
The rest of the three people wanted to laugh . But, how could they commit an offense in front of the two of them? So, they didn’t laugh, and merely lowered their heads . However, their faces became red because of holding back their laughter .
"Let it be . This parrot is very tactful . I’m a person of great moral stature . So, I’ll forget the offenses committed by one of low moral stature . I forgive you . Shi Mu, you come over . I want to talk to you about something . " Jin Xiao Chai titled the corner of her mouth as she heard Cai’s flattering words . She seemed to be enjoying this . She then collected her whip, and addressed Shi Mu . After that, she turned over, and sat on her dark-red horse . She turned around her horse, and started to advance out of the valley .
Shi Mu also turned around, and sat on his Black Wildebeest . Then, he moved his horse, and started to ride behind Jin Xiao Chai . Mo Ning and the other two people also got on their horses, and started to follow after them .
Shi Mu and Jin Xiao Chai eventually started to move side-by-side on their horses .
"Shi Mu, you went to the Holy Mountain as a bodyguard of Princess Huo Wu’s . So, you must’ve become quite familiar with the Wasteland of the barbarian race, right?" Jin Xiao Chai asked .
"I had stayed in the Wasteland for several months . But, to say that I’m familiar with that place is out of question . I can only say that I have a little understanding of it," Shi Mu replied .
"We’re going to the Heavenly Demon Sect this time . We might have to go through the sea race . But, the coastal situation is extremely intense at the moment . So, we have no other choice but to take another route . Therefore, we might try to pass through the Wasteland of barbarian race . The route of this journey is dependent upon you to decide and arrange," Jin Xiao Chai said .
"Yes . " Shi Mu’s complexion became dignified .
Jin Xiao Chai nodded . She then pulled the reins of her horse . And, she went speeding towards the mouth of the valley on her dark-red horse .




Shi Mu and the other three people increased the speed of their horses as they saw this . They then started to follow the dark-red horse .
The fog from the mountain-valley had scattered by this time . The sun was rising from the east . The glaring sunshine was pouring down and sprinkling everywhere . Everything in the valley was shining and glittering .
The troop consisted of five people including Shi Mu . And, they forged ahead towards the rising sun . Their horses had soon left the valley . They then started to advance towards the west . And, their figures soon transformed into four black dots .

Ten days later…
The group arrived at the frontier of the border of the Yan Nation . They had come very far by now . A place between two small mountains could be seen in front of them . There was also a medium-sized barrack of the barbarian race in front of them .
A flag had been raised on a very long pole beside the barrack . The flag was fluttering in the wind . It had an eye-catching red scorpion on it . This barrack had blocked the entrance of the mountain; it seemed to be a check-point . The people of both the races were to be questioned if they needed to pass through the border here .
Inside the tent of the barbarian barrack’s leader…
A barbarian man of about thirty years of age sat upright on the owner’s seat; he had a yellow-ish complexion . There was a mark of a blazing and fierce scorpion on his left arm . He looked towards the group standing in front of him with an expressionless face .
The aura on his body was strong . His cultivation seemed to be at the middle-level of the Xian Tian realm .
"Your Excellency is a powerhouse of your Sect . The skills of your subordinates don’t seem to be feeble either . May I ask why you wish to enter the Wasteland?" the yellow-skinned man sized Jin Xiao Chai up and down . He then asked without any politeness .
"Lord Du Tong, we’ve to go to the Blue Unicorn Tribe in order to purchase a herbal medicine as per the orders of the Sect . It’s a safety issue of the Wasteland . I think you know about it," Jin Xiao Chai’s complexion didn’t change as she said .
The Blue Unicorn Tribe was a small tribe of peaceful barbarians, and was at a great distance from their present location . It was located beside the Iron Mountain in the depth of the Wasteland . It was quite famous as it had rare herbal medicines in abundance . There were many vicious barbarian tribes on the way to this tribe .
Jin Xiao Chai and Shi Mu used this as an excuse as they had discussed this in advance .
"Pay a hundred-thousand silvers . Then, you can go . " The yellow-skinned man thought for a while . He then nodded and said .
"Thank you very much, Lord Tong," Jin Xiao Chai replied with a smile .




She then moved her hand, and took out several silver notes . She then handed them over to the yellow-skinned man .
The yellow-skinned man accepted them without any trace of politeness . Then, Jin Xiao Chai and the others bid them farewell, and left .

The tent soon became quiet . The yellow-skinned man opened the covering veil of the tent, and looked towards the silhouettes of Shi Mu and other people as they faded away into the distance . His eyes exposed a strange look .
After two days…
It was night . Shi Mu sat cross-legged in a tent; he was meditating . It seemed as if he wasn’t breathing .
The parrot Cai was also in an intoxicated sleep nearby him .
Suddenly, Shi Mu opened his eyes . He then moved his right hand, and a black light flashed . Then, the black blade appeared in his hand .
‘Chi!’
A strange sound of tearing of a cloth echoed .
Then, a young calf-sized shadow entered from the direction of the sound . After that, a gale of fishy smell rushed towards Shi Mu .
Shi Mu got-up from the ground . The black blade-light rose-up in his hand at the same time . Then, a heavy rain of blood got sprinkled around .
"Ah!" an odd, deep, and loud sound was heard .
The invading shadow had been beheaded by the black blade .
Shi Mu took a closer look . The shadow turned out to be a creature with the head of a long lizard, the body of a wolf, and the tail of a poisonous scorpion . It was a strange and vicious beast .
"Scorpion tail beast!" Shi Mu’s pupils shrank .
He vaguely remembered that it was a kind of a vicious beast that lived in flocks . Its cultivation wasn’t too high . But, its tail contained dangerous poison which was hard to deal with .




"Quack! Quack! What kind of a strange thing is this? It’s too dangerous . " The parrot had been sent into panic . So much so that it had lost its head in fear . So, it shouted in an odd manner . It then flapped its wings, and flew out from the place from where the tent had been torn .
Suddenly, a few strange sounds of giggling were heard . Then, three shadows rushed from three different directions at a very fast speed .
Shi Mu shook his right arm . Three black blade-Qi went out while tearing the air . They flashed, and penetrated the bodies of the shadows .
The three shadows were hit in midair . They then started to issue mournful beast howls .
Shi Mu’s figure flashed, and appeared out of the tent . Then, he swept his vision . Jin Xiao Chai, Mo Ning and others were already outside their tents . They were fighting together against the shadows with the weapons in their hands .
These scorpion tail beasts could be seen everywhere in the camp . They were widely scattered in large numbers in the west . And, they were rushing towards this place . In fact, they were more than a thousand in number!
Jin Xiao Chai’s body was shrouded by black lights that had been formed by the whip-shadows . And, black lights of concentrated real Qi were flying out from her long whip in a continuous manner . Suddenly, the flesh of a scorpion tail beast exploded by the whip . It was then reduced to a pulp of meat .
Mo Ning was completely shrouded by layers of white drizzling clouds and mists . He was rapidly rushing towards the scorpion tail beasts without making any noise .
Bai Shui Xiu was holding a blue magic cane in her hand . Her entire body was covered in a layer of blue lights . She waved her lily-white hand . Then, five pikes of water-light appeared out of nowhere . And, two scorpion tail beasts were nailed to the ground with a flash .
Qian Xiong was holding a black iron truncheon in his hands . Two black lights were dancing around his body . The black light rushed across, and broke the muscles of a scorpion tail beast .
"Most of these scorpion tail beasts have the strength of only a Hou Tian initial level . But, their claws, teeth, and tails are highly toxic . Be careful! Don’t run into them!" A flame flashed on Shi Mu’s blade . It then transformed into layers of clouds of fire, and shielded him . Shi Mu warned everyone at the same time .
Everyone’s heart trembled with fear as they heard Shi Mu’s warning .
"Everyone, protect your horses quickly . " Suddenly, Jin Xiao Chai thought of something . She then rapidly swept towards the east side of the camp . She warned everyone at the same time .
Shi Mu and others advanced towards the place where they had put their horses .
Half-an-hour later…
Shi Mu and the others were on the eastern side of their camp in order to protect their horses . Five or six-hundred dead bodies of the scorpion tail beasts were lying upside down in the surroundings . The area was flowing with a river of blood .
The remaining three or four-hundred scorpion tail beasts finally exposed fear in their eyes . ‘Chi! Chi!’ They then turned around, and started to escape in all directions .
"Quack! Quack!…" The parrot came flying out of somewhere .
It circled around Shi Mu’s head . Then, it flew towards a place in the west .
Shi Mu twitched the corner of his eye . He then rushed like a great arrow, and started to follow after the parrot . Jin Xiao Chai and others stared blankly . After that, they started to follow after Shi Mu .
After a quarter-of-an-hour…
There was a sloping place far from their camps in the west direction .
A barbarian camp was set-up several dozen feet away from the sloping place . A bonfire was burning in that place .
The yellow-skinned man of the barbarian race – who they had met on the checkpoint two days ago – was sitting near the bonfire with a gloomy face . He was listening to the report of a totem warrior of the barbarian race . Twenty or more barbarian totem warriors stood beside him .
A giant twenty-feet-long scorpion tail beast lay prone beside the body of the man . It was emitting a vigorous and imposing aura of Hou Tian consummate stage .
"Who?"
Suddenly, the yellow-skinned barbarian stood-up . He turned his head, and looked outside the camp . He then shouted .
"Lord Du Tong, you’ve commanded these vicious beasts to attack us . Can it be that you want to provoke a war between the two races?" Jin Xiao Chai held her whip in her hand . She walked in with a cold and gloomy look on her face .
Shi Mu and the other three people also held their weapons . They came over with a murderous look on their faces . Then, they stood beside Jin Xiao Chai in a row .
"Oh, it was you people…? It’s just a coincidence . The Wasteland of our barbarian race is never tranquil at nights . It’s quite common that vicious beasts roam around… " A light flashed in the eyes of the yellow-skinned man . He then said with a smile .
He hadn’t yet finished speaking when an ear-piercing and sky-breaking ‘bang’ sound was heard .
Jin Xiao Chai swung the whip in her hand . Then, a whip-shadow – as thick as a thigh – appeared out of nowhere . It then went coiling towards the yellow-skinned barbarian – like a python .
