I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself-Chapter 188 - 89: Huo Chang: I Am Very Satisfied

"Whizz, whizz, whizz!"

Giant arrows continuously pierced through the bodies of the Xiaoyang Race Soldiers, accompanied by their relentless screams and blood spilling across the mountain wilds.

"I'll twist your heads off!"

A Xiaoyang Race Thousand Captain immediately led the soldiers charging towards the direction of the giant crossbow.

They had learned their lesson and spread out as they ascended the mountain.

"Waste of space, surround the mountain for me. Charging like that, the Human Race will have already fled!"

The Xiaoyang Race Soldiers split into two, rushing left and right, aiming to encircle the Blazing Flame Race Soldiers on the mountain.

"Move!"

Seeing the rapid response of Xiaoyang, the leading Huan Forest gestured, and everyone hoisted the giant crossbow, running along the mountain ridge towards the distance.

"Release the arrows!"

Downhill, the Xiaoyang also pulled out their giant crossbow, starting to shoot arrows towards the ridge.

"Descend the mountain!"

Huan Forest signaled as they headed downwards, and as they arrived at the foot, the Xiaoyang Race Soldiers encircling from both sides were already rushing over.

However, Huan Forest's group paid no heed, charging towards the valley ahead.

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

The Crocodile Dragons stomped, shaking the mountains, and the pursuing Xiaoyang Race Soldiers began shooting arrows.

"Clang, clang!"

The pursuers followed Huan Forest into the valley, yet the clang of the giant crossbow sounded once again. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

On both sides of the valley, giant arrows and armor-piercing arrows crackled, greeting them.

At the front, Huan Forest, running for dear life, laughed heartily, pulling out arrows from his body and continued running forward without pause.

Having showered the Xiaoyang Race Soldiers with a fierce rain of arrows, the Human Race Soldiers showed no desire to fight, rushing away along the pre-arranged path.

At the mouth of the valley lay the corpse of a Crocodile Dragon, a few heavily wounded, pierced with giant arrows, alongside more than thirty Xiaoyang Race Soldiers dead on the ground.

The sound of furious roars echoed through the valley.

…

"Where are they, I'm asking you, where are they!"

Muo Chang looked at the Myriarch of the Xiaoyang Race, who failed to capture the Human Race and lost dozens of Xiaoyang Race Soldiers, his gaze sharp.

"Myriarch, these humans are too cunning. They don't engage us at all, shoot arrows then flee, entirely different from the Ji Land Human Race."

"These Northern Land humans are...are..."

"Are what!"

"A bunch of ground mice!"

Muo Chang furiously commanded, "Lead your soldiers to patrol the rear of the clan soldiers, don't let the Human Race sneak up again."

"Buzz!"

Before Muo Chang finished speaking, a buzz sounded, as giant arrows attacked once more.

He angrily grabbed the Thousand Captain's long spear in front of him, hurling it out, knocking the giant arrow outside the soldier array.

A figure shooting arrows from a distant hill vanished instantly.

"Myriarch, these humans have long prepared here, they've even dug out caves."

"At this rate, to reach the Human Race Territory, we will endure endless harassment."

"Go summon Muo Qiu."

Leading the clan on mountain patrol ahead, Muo Qiu rode his Crocodile Dragon swiftly to Muo Chang.

"How did Myriarch Muo Long handle these humans previously?"

Muo Qiu lowered his head, eyes darting, "Myriarch, previously these humans didn't dig caves or have this many giant crossbows, Myriarch quickly dispersed them."

Muo Chang stopped looking at Muo Qiu, turning to Mu Lushan and Qiu Feihuai.

"Neither of you say a word, are you laughing at me?"

"Centurion Muo, you lead the mission this time, we simply follow commands."

Qiu Feihuai spoke, having just entered the mountain and already lost hundreds of clan members, it's clear the Human Race here is prepared.

At such times, it's better to follow Muo Chang.

Mu Lushan agreed.

Muo Chang now realized why this northward quest for grain was assigned to him.

Damn Muo Long trapped him.

And this blood-related Muo Qiu here rarely speaks the truth.

It's too late to say anything now; no matter what, the Human Race must be captured.

"How far is it to the Human Race Tribe Division?"

"Very far..."

Muo Qiu muttered softly, head lowered.

"How far!"

Muo Chang's tone rose sharply, his eyes glaring round.

Just entering the mountain and already ambushed; at the Human Race Territory, these clan soldiers wouldn't endure half.

This recurring Human Race ambush, these clan soldiers can't take it forever.

How can this fight be won, can the humans even be captured?

Damn Muo Long!

Initially hoping for guaranteed success in this northward task, to accumulate merits for advancement to General.

Now it's a mess, how to resolve the end.

"Spread your three divisions' soldiers around, rush at full pace towards the Human Race Tribe Territory!"

Soon, the Xiaoyang Race Soldiers' formation changed drastically.

Muo Qiu, Qiu Bear, and Mu Xun's three divisions scattered on all sides, forming an expansive formation, three miles wide east to west and four miles north to south.

Muo Chang's elite clan soldiers positioned at the center.

This formation left Muo Chang's soldiers much safer, but the scattered Muo Qiu's three division soldiers suffered.

Watching the Blazing Flame Race Soldiers hidden throughout the mountains, the formation of Xiaoyang seemed so dispersed.

Bow drawn, aimed arrows.

Swift and smooth.

Released arrows without caring whether they struck outer Xiaoyang soldiers, darted away.

If pursued by Xiaoyang Race Soldiers, led them into distant ambush circles.

After several rounds, the outer Xiaoyang Race Soldiers became like frightened birds, yet no Blazing Flame Race Soldier was seen within the earthy yellow, tender green mountain wilds at all.

But as they walked, seemingly insignificant stones in the distance, turf suddenly lifted, leaping up to shoot an arrow, then darting away.

"Order, speed up, damn it, run!"

"Command Muo Chang to patrol the Crocodile Dragon Soldiers' surrounding area; anyone they encounter from the Human Race, dismember them!"

"Also, stir up all the grass and ash, fan wind with all one's might."
