Xiao Chenglin said smugly, “Today is the day you bury yourself.”
Jiang Bo’s eyes were cold and heavy. Without turning his head, he quickly said, “Jiang Hu, take your mother and brother into the secret tunnel. Brothers of the Tiger Mercenary Group, follow them too.”
Liu Yan grabbed his hand and said, “No, I’m not leaving! If you want to die, I’ll die with you.”
The members of the Tiger Mercenary Group also said in unison, “We won’t leave. We want to live and die with you, our leader.”
Jiang Bo was silent for a moment and said, “This is what I, Jiang Bo, owe you all. I will definitely repay all of you in my next life.”
A young man with a ruffian-like appearance laughed and said, “Anyway, I’ve been with you since I was young. Isn’t it just death? What’s there to be afraid of? I’ll still follow you in my next life.”
Despite facing such a trap, the members of the Tiger Mercenary Group burst into laughter.
This scene made Xiao Chenglin even more livid. “Since you all want to die so badly, I’ll send you all on your way.”
Another whistle that was even clearer than before sounded, and the ferocious beasts rushed towards the members of the Tiger Mercenary Group.
Jiang Bo and the others didn’t give up. Instead, they chose to fight to the death. The unwillingness to admit defeat was engraved in their bones.
This scene also touched the onlookers. Most of them had received help from Jiang Bo’s family before, but facing the Xiao family, they didn’t even have the courage to step forward.
Jiang Bo and the others were prepared to die. In the next second, the ferocious beasts that had reached them suddenly froze.
No one had expected this to happen.
Xiao Chenglin’s expression had turned so ugly that he whistled a few times. The fiery glints in the ferocious beasts’ eyes flickered, but they didn’t move.
Jiang Bo and his men took a step back carefully, watching the ferocious beasts warily.
Xiao Chenglin didn’t expect his family’s beast-taming skills to fail. He immediately kicked a tiger who was near his feet and shouted angrily, “Go! What are you waiting for? Go!”
However, no matter what he did, the beasts remained frozen.
His actions had completely enraged Xia Muqing, who stood in the crowd. She slowly walked forward and said, “These ferocious beasts are also living creatures. Aren’t you afraid of the consequences of doing this to them?”
Ever since the Xiao family had obtained the Beast Taming Skill, they had started to worship these ferocious beasts. Later on, when they realized that the beasts couldn’t disobey orders, they became unbridled and simply scolded or hit them as they pleased.
To them, even the king of the mountains was as inferior as a dog.
Xiao Chenglin didn’t find anything wrong. He looked at Xia Muqing and frowned. “Who are you?”
Master Xiao pointed at her and said, “Brother, it’s her! She was the one who kicked me the last time!”
Xiao Chenglin’s expression changed as he gazed at her pretty face. “If you follow me back to the Xiao residence, I’ll let you off, okay?”
Xia Muqing sneered coldly. The Xiao family was truly of the same blood.
Giving the Jiang family behind her a reassuring look, Xia Muqing answered, “Sure, but I won’t follow you back. I’ll follow them.”
Xia Muqing pointed at the ferocious beasts around them.
Xiao Chenglin was confused. In the next second, his eyes were filled with fear.
Xia Muqing gently patted the head of the tiger beside her. It actually bowed to her like how a human would do, before it turned to face Xiao Chenglin and the rest.
All the beasts immediately turned around, their eyes filled with hatred and fury.
Xiao Chenglin kept shouting, “Are you all rebelling? Go back!”
He retreated with cold sweat dripping down his face.
Xia Mu cleared her voice coldly, “You didn’t expect to end up like this one day, did you? You asked for it.”
With that, the ferocious beasts let out heaven-shaking roars, and their auras were even fiercer than before.
They charged towards the Xiao family.
Xiao Chenglin and his men fled in panic, screaming as they ran back to the Xiao residence to get help.
