Chapter 210 - Lie Mountain

“Damn it!” cursed Ji Hao angrily.

He truly hadn’t thought that Elder Iron Yan would actually attack them. Although he did foresee some bad developments as soon as he had seen this magic crystal mine, he had never thought that, considering the current situation where the Rong Mountain Clan numbered less in Senior Magi, which made them weaker than Ji Hao’s team, Elder Iron Yan would choose to attack them. After all, amongst the entire migrating troop of the Rong Mountain Clan, Elder Iron Yan had been the only Senior Magus. Although he knew everything about smithing, he barely fought in real battles.

According to Ji Hao’s prediction, if Elder Iron Yan had intentions of having this crystal mine all for themselves and would decide to act on it, he still would have to wait till their reinforcements had arrived at this location. That would have given Ji Hao plenty of time to have delivered this message to Wulong Yao and other elders of the Magi Palace.

However, Iron Yan had taken action immediately. Furthermore, he was in possession of such a powerful subduing inherited magic treasure, hidden inside his body. Those chains had been forged by some unknown kind of metal. Although they had the thickness of only thumb, they were incredibly heavy. Countless black spell symbols were glowing on each of the chains, releasing a tremendous power. These chains sank deeply into the joints of Ji Hao and his teammates, squeezing till bone-cracking sounds were coming out of their bodies. Even with his extremely solid body, Ji Hao could feel great pain coming from his bones.

This was actually not a big deal to Ji Hao, but the poorest one in the team was actually Taisi. Among all the members of the team, Taisi was the weakest one. The chain, which had locked all his joints, suddenly tightened; along with which, he let out a great howl and all of his bones were squeezed, breaking his joints in such a way that his limbs and upper body even twisted in a weird manner.

Taisi fell on the ground with a thud, the whites of his eyeballs showing while black-coloured mixed dark-red-coloured blood gushed out from the corners of his mouth.

The people of the Rong Mountain Clan were rushing out at their highest speed. The face of Elder Iron Yan had become dark-blue, and his tight and stiff body was quickly moving backwards. It was obvious that he was extremely nervous about having attacked and locked up Ji Hao and his teammates so suddenly.

When he had reached near the entrance of this underground cave, a murderous intent appeared abruptly on his face. All of a sudden, his right arm began to glow and a heavy, thick machete appeared instantly in his hand. The black edge of the machete glistened with huge blood-red light, which clearly indicated that this was a fierce and powerful weapon that had bathed in quite an amount of blood.

While staring at Elder Iron Yan, who was showing such a murderous intent, Ji Hao sneered and said, “How will you explain it to the Magi Palace if you killed us?”

“You were all swallowed by a terrifying beast living around this area in order to rescue our clansmen. We truly appreciate your sacrifice, therefore, we, the Rong Mountain Clan, will give a compensation to the Magi Palace ten times more than the original price,” said Iron Yan harshly.

Ji Hao raised his voice and yelled harshly as well, “It won’t be that simple! Man Man is the little girl of the Fire God, Zhu Rong. If she dies here, your Rong Mountain Clan will be wiped out completely for sure! So, Elder Iron Yan, just release us, and we will pretend nothing has happened.”

Elder Iron Yan gasped deeply, gritted his teeth and said, “I have already locked you up, how can we pretend nothing has happened? This magic crystal mine, with this mine, our Rong Mountain Clan will certainly raise! We will grow hundreds of times more powerful than we are now, within at most a hundred years. And we, as an immigrating branch clan, will be able to return home proudly, even…”

While speaking, Iron Yan hacked his machete hard against the ground, creating large amounts of fire sparks, then growled our hoarsely, “None of our Rong Mountain Clan clansmen have ever forgotten that we originated from the Lie Mountain Clan, we are the offspring of the highest Flame God! We…”

A series of chain clanging sounds interrupted his speech. Man Man, who was also locked firmly by a chain, slowly stood up with her body shaking intensely.

Ji Hao, Yu Mu, Feng Xing, and Shaosi were all locked by chains and couldn’t even move a little bit. Man Man however, gritted her teeth and stood forcibly up with only her physical strength. Dragging the long chain and carrying her pair of hammers, Man Man walked towards Iron Yan, step by step.

“Old guy, Man Man had thought that you were a good man, but you turned out to be a bad guy. I will tell my Abba to burn your Rong Mountain Clan!”

“What is the big deal about being the offspring of the Flame God? We are from the Zhu Rong family of the Southern Wasteland. We will never be afraid of your crappy Lie Mountain Flame God!” Man Man continued angrily.
