Chapter 403 - Iza Kawatani and Orochi (2/2)
Of course, Xiao Bing knew that Orochi wanted to devour as many powerful masters as possible. So even if Iza Kawatani had nothing to do with Orochi, it would not let Iza Kawatani go. But Iza Kawatani did not know that. If Xiao Bing was him, he would choose not to tell the truth.
But to his surprise, Iza Kawatani chose to say it with pride. “Iza Naki is our family’s ancestor, and I have the most sacred and the purest blood of the Iza family in my body.”
“Boom.” Numerous trees were uprooted by the howling wind. Some trees were even blown to the sky. The men who had not reached the level of Innate Realm would have been blown away, if the others had not helped them with their footing.
Iza Kawatani stood steadfast in the wind, with his hands behind his back. Xiao Bing praised this man inwardly. Because, on one hand, Iza Kawatani was indeed a powerful master. On the other hand, Iza Kawatani was brave enough to confront this beast and acknowledge his identity directly. It seemed that he was truly proud of his name, and he would never let it be stained.
The two snakeheads howled. One second later, dark clouds began gathering in the sky above their heads. But the skies that were far away from them were still as blue as the ocean. What a powerful beast it was.
Iza Kawatani frowned, “I heard that the ancient beast Orochi is able to change the weather, summon lightning and floods. Are you the same kind?”
Though there was no lightning yet, Xiao Bing knew that it was because Orochi’s strength had not been fully restored yet. But the weather was changed by its will.
Orochi lowered its head to look at Iza Kawatani, its eyes gleaming with an evilness, as if it would devour Iza Kawatani instantly. The two snakeheads spoke simultaneously. Their tones and speed were totally identical. “I am Orochi. I did not expect that you are the decedent of Iza Naki!”
Orochi!!!
Even Iza Kawatani himself was startled by the name, let alone the men behind him. It was the strongest demonic beast from the ancient times!
The men behind Iza Kawatani found their legs becoming weak. Several of them even started running. Others watched, but were afraid to move. But if those men managed to escape successfully, they would definitely run as well.
Orochi did not seem to care about the runners. But after they had run several hundred meters away, one of its heads suddenly opened and spat out a stream of sticky mucus. The mucus fell on these runners like pouring rain. The men screeched and their bodies turned into wisps of steam instantly.
How poisonous it was!
The rest of them did not dare to think of running anymore. They believed that they might live if they stayed and fight. But if they ran in different directions, they would all die here.
Iza Kawatani was also shocked, but his face was still placid. After all he was their pillar, if he showed that he was terrified, the rest of them might lose all confidence of fighting, and all they could do then was wait to be killed.
Iza Kawatani said calmly, “You all have seen what happened to those deserters. Don’t try to run if you want to live. Stay and fight with me, so that we might survive through this.”
Orochi grinned gloomily, “You truly have the blood of Iza Naki, since you are still so calm at this moment. I will eat you all later. Your presence is truly a delight to me. I should thank you, the boy of Iza family!”
Iza Kawatani asked in bewilderment, “Why?”
Orochi answered with mounting excitement, “Because you have Iza Naki’s blood running in your veins. Your value is more than that of all the others. By then, I will be able to restore my strength fully, and grow even stronger than ever!”
Iza Kawatani was suddenly enlightened, “Small wonder that only two of your heads are here. You are still wounded?”
Orochi smiled in excitement, “You are right, boy of the Iza family!”
