Chapter 822: Chapter 50 4?8! [2 in 1]

"Is this too cruel?"

Jiang Yuebai looked at the dazed Iron Eating Beast, his expression tinged with sympathy. After all, this cute little guy, compared to that massive creature that swallowed iron chains, was too visually impactful.

"There’s nothing wrong with it." Elder Tan waved his hand solemnly, "It was born for battle, a Jiuli fierce beast. How could this mere scrap of metal stop the steps of Ba Tiansha of Jiuli!"

He stared intently at the Iron Eating Beast. The little one didn’t seem to understand what was being said as it waved its paws and uttered a "woo"—in agreement.

It seemed completely unaware of what it was about to go through.

But a moment later, it knew.

When Lord "Ba Tiansha of Jiuli" was brought down to the arena, the Golden Peak Beast opposite became alert as well, its entire terrifying body erecting itself fully, a behemoth cast from gold and iron.

The little one was enveloped in the shadow of the Golden Peak Beast, almost invisible.

"Ba Tiansha!" Elder Tan shouted from above, "Strike first."

If it had been merely a sacrificial dispatch, he naturally wouldn’t have sent the Iron Eating Beast down. Although this little one had undergone generational degeneration of wildness, it was still a descendent of an ancient terrible beast. Whether it was its endurance, speed, or strength, all were formidable. It had easily broken through the Formation set up by Chu Liang initially.

As long as it could muster some courage, it might well be able to fight!

Indeed.

Upon hearing Elder Tan’s combat command, the Iron Eating Beast’s small black eyes immediately sparked with a blazing will to fight, baring its teeth, grimacing, and raising its paws—its posture fierce, its eyes resolute!

Then...

Boom!

Just as the Iron Eating Beast had positioned itself, the Golden Peak Beast opposite had already lifted a massive foot, raised it high, and slammed it down hard, squashing the little one squarely.

Though the Golden Peak Beast looked cumbersome, its attack was swift; the Iron Eating Beast had just positioned itself and the fight had already ended.

"Ah..."

The Human Servants in the stands collectively covered their eyes, unable to bear watching.

"Drive the Golden Peak Beast back and check the condition of Lord Iron Eating Beast." The Jiuli Priest commanded calmly, and immediately, two Jiuli Giants slightly smaller than the Golden Peak Beast emerged from the gates on both sides, dragging the Golden Peak Beast back into the cave.

At the original spot, there was a round pit in the ground, cracks spreading around it. The little one was embedded in the ground like a small meatball, its short legs sticking up pitifully.

Chu Liang stepped forward, grabbed the small legs, and pulled hard like pulling a radish—pop! He yanked it out. The little one seemed small, but it was quite heavy; the inertia nearly knocked Chu Liang over.

Jiang Yuebai lifted its head only to see the little guy’s eyes tightly shut, yet a check around its body revealed no serious injuries.

Though the Golden Peak Beast looked terrifying, honestly, the simple force of this blow was not as great as the Rune Array Chu Liang had set up earlier. That rune array only caused some slight damage to the Iron Eating Beast’s fur, let alone now.

But the little one simply wouldn’t open its eyes.

"Could it be some internal injury?" Xu Ziyang worried.

"Hmm..." Chu Liang pondered for a moment, took out a Spirit Plant from his hand, and sighed, "I was planning to reward it with a Spirit Plant regardless of whether it won or lost. Who knew it would faint; it looks like I’ll have to eat this Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure myself."

Whoosh.

Before he had finished speaking, the little one had already opened its eyes at lightning speed, snatching the Spirit Plant from Chu Liang’s hand with a motion as swift as the wind and as fast as lightning.

"Humph." Seeing it was alright, Elder Tan rebuked from the side, "Scared before the fight; utterly useless."

"Woo woo woo." Just after showing off the Spirit Plant, the little one immediately sobbed, covering its eyes with its hands, looking utterly pathetic.

"Elder Tan, don’t blame it. You can see that it really hasn’t fought before," Chu Liang waved his hand and said.

At that moment, the Jiuli Priest came over, looking complex and said, "If it were a mature Iron Eating Beast, defeating the Golden Peak Beast would pose no difficulty. It seems this Lord Iron Eating Beast indeed still has a way to go."

"What are you talking about? We’re just not in good shape today. A rest for some time and another attempt will be fine," Chu Liang retorted.

"..." The Jiuli Priest looked at him speechlessly, paused, and then said, "Lord Iron Eating Beast’s palace has been arranged, and there are accommodations for you as well. I still warn you, don’t presume because Lord Iron Eating Beast depends on you, that you can do as you please. Once the Lord abandons you, you will immediately become meat in the city."

Elder Tan also snorted coldly, "No need to worry about that."

...

In the vast emptiness of Black Iron Mountain, there were several open areas, one of which was a huge square space, all belonging to "Lord Ba Tiansha of Jiuli." In the dwelling were placed huge iron chains, iron balls, and other "toys", as well as soft carpets and a large nest woven from beast skins; it seemed every Iron Eating Beast enjoyed the highest standard of treatment.

In a corner of this space were a few small doors, leading to very simple spaces of just a few feet with nothing but a small bed. Undoubtedly, these were the bedrooms for the "Human Servants."

"What should we do now?"

The group sat huddled in a corner of the Iron Eating Beast’s large nest; the little one rolled by itself nearby while the "Human Servants" discussed matters.
