Chapter 49 Fierce and Wicked Female
"Is this how Bai Yun taught you to greet people?" Ling Chengen's tense body did not relax, nor did he turn around. He only glanced at Bai Xi, who had brought her head close to his shoulder. "I advise you to move the knife away, or you will regret it."

Bai Xi remained completely unmoved by her warning, raising an eyebrow and bringing her face close to her ear: "I'm not moving away, what can you do about it?"

Ling Chengen patted the little winged dragon's head, and Bai Xi immediately pressed the blade even tighter: "Don't move, your life is in my hands now! This is no ordinary bone blade, it's extremely sharp. Once it cuts your fragile throat, I won't be able to save you."

Ling Chengen glanced down at the bone blade on his shoulder and chuckled, "Let me teach you a lesson."

Bai Xi smiled, her eyes crinkling, and asked, "What Dao..."

Before he could finish speaking, the little winged dragon suddenly adjusted its flight angle, abruptly raising its body, causing Ling Chengen and Bai Xi to plummet straight down.

Bai Xi instinctively tried to move the bone blade away from her neck, but a sharp pain shot through her wrist and thumb joints, causing the bone blade to slip from her grasp. Ling Chengen then flicked it with his fingertip, sending the blade detached from their reach and falling downwards with them.

"Are you crazy?"

Bai Xi looked at Ling Chengen, who was reaching out to him from above, and the smile in his eyes vanished completely. As he turned to transform into his beast form, he was suddenly grabbed by her fingers on his left shoulder.

After his shoulder bone was suppressed by that terrifying force, he was even unable to freely change into his beast form.

He knew very well that his left wing would be severed the moment he transformed into beast form.

"Ling Chengen, let go right now!"

"Do you want to die?" Bai Xi's face turned pale as she watched the ground getting closer and closer.

Ling Chengen glanced at the ground, then grabbed his neck with his left hand: "You started it first."

"I was just kidding you."

Ling Chengen: "I don't like this kind of joke."

"Let go quickly—"

"Apologize."

Bai Xi: "..."

"I'm sorry!" Bai Xi was completely at a loss with her and could only do as she asked.

When they were less than 100 meters from the ground, Ling Chengen suddenly stopped.

A blue crane brushed past the treetops, its long black legs snapping off a large patch of leaves, before taking flight and soaring upwards.

Ling Chengen released his grip on Qinghe's left foot and jumped directly onto the tree trunk below. He hooked his left hand around the trunk of the giant tree and looked up at Bai Xi, who had circled in the air once before flying back.

Bai Xi kept a few meters away from her, stepping on tree branches and staring intently at her: "Are you crazy? I won't hurt you. Are you really planning to drag me down with you?"

Ling Chengen turned his head and glanced in the direction where the little winged dragon had disappeared, then replied dismissively, "I was just joking with you."

Bai Xi's eyes widened instantly: "You did this on purpose?"

Ling Chengen tilted his head and placed his right hand on the bone blade at his waist: "What? Want to fight me again?"

Bai Xi rolled her eyes at her: "Why would I fight with you? I'm here to deliver something to you."

Ling Chengen looked at his exasperated expression with confusion: "Give me what?"

"That bone blade from just now."

Bai Xi looked down at the dense forest with a headache, and said, "A Yu told me yesterday that you saved his life in the swamp, but the bone blade you were carrying broke in the Misty Swamp. It will take at least half a month to remake a bone blade."

"So, he came to me early this morning with the Bone Blade of the Beast, asking me to personally hand it to you as a thank you for saving his life."

Ling Chengen looked puzzled: "A sword beast?"

"You didn't know?" Bai Xi was a little surprised, but she still patiently explained, "The Blade Beast is an ancient beast that went extinct long ago. The bones of this beast are extremely hard, making them a top-grade material for crafting high-level bone blades."

"But the remains of the Blade Beast are very rare. So far, only three Blade Beast remains have been discovered in the entire Northern Beast Plains. Moreover, blacksmiths who can forge Blade Beast bones are also very rare. To commission a weapon made from Blade Beast bones from them, you generally have to pay a high production fee."

"The bone blade on Ayu's body was obtained a few years ago. When he was about fourteen or fifteen years old, he rescued a seriously injured wandering orc. Although he brought the man back to the tribe and he received treatment, the man died not long after. Before he died, the wandering orc gave him the only valuable thing he had, the bone blade."

“Ayu is not good at close combat, so he hardly ever uses this beast bone blade.”

"So he wanted to give you the bone blade."

Ling Chengen finally understood why this guy was here. He stared at him with disdain and couldn't help but say sarcastically, "Bai Qingyu asked you to deliver the bone blade, and you just put that thing to my neck. Should I praise you? Your way of delivering it was quite creative!"

Bai Xi jumped down from the tree branch, leaving only an echo in the air.

"I'll find it."

Ling Chengen listened to the distant howls of wolves and the approaching footsteps, and followed Bai Xi into the grass.

She frowned and said, "Stop running around. The orcs of the Snow Wolf Tribe have already found our location. Follow me."

"What about the Bone Blade? It's a rare find, and if A-Yu finds out I lost it, he'll definitely tell Father, and then I'll get a double beating from Father and my older brother."

Bai Xi felt guilty and was also a little short of breath.

The two older family members both favor that brat Bai Qingyu.

As the second son in his family, living a life of hardship, he was neither able to reach the heavens nor the earth.

Ling Chengen dragged him into the bushes, pulled out the bone blade stuck in the ground with one hand, leaving only the handle, and quickly ran in one direction, not forgetting to turn back and curse: "The bone blade has been found."

"You came along today and ruined my plans. You have to do me a favor as compensation for today's unexpected turn of events."

Bai Xi bit her lower lip and looked at her left arm that was being held: "Before we talk about compensation, can you let go first?"

"Don't you have any idea how powerful your Boshan Giant Tiger's claws are?"

Bai Xi looked at her arm, which had been pinched and left finger marks, and winced in pain.

Ling Chengen released his grip and led the way: "Follow me. If you get caught by the Snow Wolf Tribe's orcs, I won't save you."

"Thank you. As long as you don't grab me, even if they can see me, they definitely won't be able to touch me."

The Cold Mountain tribe and the Snow Wolf tribe have no deep-seated, irreconcilable feud.

At most, we just don't have much contact.

"There are about thirteen snow wolf beastmen who have come to hunt us down. The one that is closest to us is a little to our left."

Ling Chengen stepped on the tree trunk and climbed up the branch in the blink of an eye, hiding his body among the dense leaves.

Bai Xi didn't have her skill level, but as a bird-like beastman, he had a natural advantage in high-altitude situations, so he had his own ways of climbing trees.

The two hid among the branches and leaves. He turned his head to look at Ling Chengen's profile, who was so close to him: "What are you planning to do?"

"I'll capture a snow wolf beastman and ask him about the situation." Her original plan was to use her high altitude advantage to find a lone snow wolf tribe beastman, use her mental power to directly influence his memory, and extract the information she wanted.

Before the plan could even be implemented, Bai Xi's interference led to the discovery by the Snow Wolf Tribe's lookout beastmen, who even dispatched a team to hunt her down.

The previous methods are definitely not going to work.

So we can only arrest one person first, find a place where no one will bother us to question them, and then release them after the questioning.

Even if the Snow Wolf tribe knew she was the one who captured him, they wouldn't dare to come knocking on their door to demand justice.

After all, they were in the wrong first.

Bai Xi didn't know what Ling Chengen's purpose was in arresting him, but he had made a mistake first and needed to show a good attitude of admitting his mistake. So he didn't think about whether he was aiding and abetting evil and readily agreed to Ling Chengen's request.

Ling Chengen was a little surprised that he agreed so readily. He pointed to the room below and said, "You go and be the bait. Remember to scare the other side. I will ambush him from behind."

"I think you're pretty good at scaring people."

Ling Chengen affirmed his ability to cause trouble.

Bai Xi felt that she was half praising and half scolding, but he didn't want to argue with her because he could already sense that someone had already approached.

After sliding down the tree trunk, Bai Xi concealed her tall figure behind it, using the surrounding tangled bushes and some ancient vines hanging from the branches as cover. She quietly crouched in the shadows, listening intently to the approaching footsteps.

Suddenly, a sharp fork pierced from the right rear. Bai Xi rolled forward to avoid the metal fork coated with a pale purple liquid, and couldn't help but curse, "You actually coated your weapon with poison! Aren't you Snow Wolf Tribe too insidious and despicable?"

The snow wolf orc who made the move scoffed, "It's not like only the orcs in our tribe use poison. Those large tribes heading south also use it. Why don't you curse them in front of them?"

As he spoke, the snow wolf beastman leaped over the bushes, preparing to continue poking at the scrambling Bai Xi.

Suddenly, a vine descended from the sky, wrapping around his feet at the highest point of his leap over the bushes, suspending the unfortunate snow wolf beastman upside down.

Bai Xi kicked the sharp fork in the snow wolf beastman's right hand, transformed into a blue crane, and used her wingtips to sever the vine that was suspending the enemy upside down. Just as Ling Chengen grabbed the vine, Bai Xi caught her falling body, then broke through the green branches and leaves and flew into the sky.

The snow wolf beastman hanging upside down in mid-air still tried to struggle, but after flying to a height of a thousand meters, Ling Chengen looked down, played with the bone blade in his right hand, and said against the vines, "If you struggle again, I will just let go."

"What do you think your chances of surviving if you fall?"

The snow wolf beastman dared not struggle or move its body any longer, staring intently at the somewhat familiar face above it, finally recognizing the other person's identity: "It's you! Ling Chengen!"

"It's you despicable Stone Forest Beastmen again! We agreed to a truce, but you attacked our Snow Wolf Tribe first. Have you no shame?"

Ling Chengen picked at his ear and chuckled, "Who's the shameless one? My father specifically asked your young clan leader to be my beast husband. But you bunch of trash crippled him and even went so far as to poison Su Weihua with the poison of the Xuanlin Serpent Lizard, torturing him beyond recognition, and then you want us to swallow this bitter pill!"

"If your Snow Wolf tribe had any sense of shame, you wouldn't do such an insulting thing."

"I haven't even poisoned you or broken your limbs yet, and you're already barking like a mad dog?"

Ling Chengen isn't afraid of arguing, although she prefers to use her hands rather than her words.

But right now she's only taken one hostage. If things get out of hand and she loses control... she'll have to go back and take another one.

So, I'll vent my frustration about the product not matching the description first.

Bai Xi carried the two of them slowly forward, listening intently to the gossip.

He was wondering why Ling Chengen would go to the Snow Wolf Tribe alone for no reason. Was it because he was there to cause trouble for Su Weihua?
However, it makes sense, since the two are now in a relationship.

In comparison, the truly pitiful one is the clueless male like A-Yu, who had no official status, served her tirelessly, almost lost his life, and ended up injured without even receiving a single caring glance from the female.

However, it's something that Ayu deserves.

It's his fault for being so hypocritical.

What you say and what you actually do are never consistent.

He couldn't understand his silly younger brother's thoughts. He had always been very nice to Ling Chengen, but he always rejected her advances. Wasn't he just playing hard to get?
The key point is that Ling Chengen actually fell for his act and almost became a cuckold.

Bai Xi's mind was filled with a bunch of random thoughts, and in the end, she shook her head helplessly.

He's probably just getting old; he can't understand what young people these days want to do.

It's just about finding a partner, but they're making such a fuss.

“The distance between here and the Snow Wolf Tribe is far enough. Even if they run at full speed, it will take them at least half a beast hour to get here.” Bai Xi turned to Ling Chengen and asked, “I remember there’s a relatively safe hill ahead. How about we go there?”

"can."

Ling Chengen was not picky about the location of the interrogation.

Bai Xi led them to land quickly.

As soon as the snow wolf beastman landed, he immediately rolled away from the vines and turned to run for his life.

Ling Chengen was amused by his actions. Just as Bai Xi instinctively went to chase after him, he stopped him and took the bow off his body.

The bow and arrow were drawn in one smooth motion.

The colorful fletchings traced swirling lines, and the sound of the arrow piercing the air was like the sharp, explosive roar of fireworks rising into the sky.

The arrow struck the fleeing prey in the leg with lightning speed, pinning it heavily to a large, bluish-gray rock.

Bai Xi was startled by this miraculous arrow.

He turned to look at Ling Chengen as she put away her bow and noticed that the morning sun was scorching her thick eyebrows and eyes, and her strong facial features naturally exuded a cold and sharp murderous aura. As her eyelids slowly lowered, that chilling aura gradually dissipated.

Ling Chengen held the bow in his left hand and walked forward at a leisurely pace.

The snow wolf orc whose calf had been pierced by an arrow was trying to save himself, attempting to pull the arrow out of the rock, but the arrow was already deeply embedded in the stone, and it was not so easy to pull it out.

Ling Chengen grabbed the end of the arrow fletching with his right hand and suddenly pulled the fletching off the stone.

Naturally, a cloud of blood mist also emerged from his calf.

"Are you still running?"

She toyed with the blood-stained arrow in her hand, half-squatting in front of the snow wolf beastman and laughing. Her voice was light and airy, completely unconcerned about the sticky, crimson liquid between her fingers.

But her words struck the eardrums of the two grown men with an extremely terrifying force.

Bai Xi felt a chill run down her spine, and a word involuntarily popped into her mind.

Evil female!

She's also an extremely fierce and wicked female.
