Chapter 296 Admit Defeat
Reaching out to grab a sharp bone spike, the Rock Horn Dragon Rhinocerous lowered its head, its eyes revealing a sinister smile like a demon from hell, causing the Bone Armor Rhino to shiver involuntarily.
"Young friend, can we have a talk?"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Seeing the actions of the Rock horn Dragon Rhinocerous, Stun Zen was a bit confused but still called out in a panic. In his heart, he finally felt some regret. If he had known it would come to this, why provoke this young man?
"Father, what's there to talk about with him? If he dares to harm the Bone Armor Rhino even a little, Elder Peter and others will make him pay a heavy price!" Stun Qistin shouted angrily, his eyes wide open. Behind the Stun Family stood a force that even the Blood seal Gate couldn't afford to offend.
Hearing this, Walker Lin's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and a mysterious glint flashed in his old, cloudy eyes.
It seemed like he had received some remarkable news.
Stun Zen trembled upon hearing this and was about to tell Stun Qistin to shut up, but the latter's arrogant voice sounded again.
"I order you to quickly make your spirit beast back off obediently. Don't think that just because you have a little strength, you can act recklessly in Bloodstone Pass. Some people are beyond your ability to offend." Stun Qistin placed his hands on his hips, his face showing an unquestionable expression.
"Some people seem to have quite the backing," lightly rubbed his chin with his palm and, after a moment, Blaze Regret nodded with a smile at the Rock horn Dragon Rhinocerous.
But so what if they have backing? If he were to reveal his own backing, even the empire's central powers might not be enough to compare.
Moreover, his backing could come to his aid at any moment.
With Blaze Regret's signal, the Rock horn Dragon Rhinocerous grinned, and its massive hand suddenly yanked backward. With a crisp crack, a sharp bone spur was forcefully torn from the Bone Armor Rhino's chest.
As the bone spur snapped, a blood curdling scream erupted from the Bone Armor Rhino's mouth, echoing for tens of thousands of feet.
Seeing that Blaze Regret dared to take action, Stun Qistin became instantly flustered, and the commanding expression on her face quickly disappeared. She realized that her previous arrogant words did nothing but provoke her opponent.
"Foolish," Silver Van said calmly, his voice unhidden, allowing most people on the high wall to hear it clearly. Their eyes showed a hint of disdain.
If Blaze Regret had family in Bloodstone Pass, there might have been leverage to make him hesitate. But provoking a strong wanderer would only invite reckless revenge.
Finally realizing this, Stun Qistin turned pale and could barely stand.
"Young friend, if we can let this matter go, I can compensate you with three hundred thousand gold coins!" Stun Zen shot an angry glare at Stun Qistin, then looked at Blaze Regret, his voice filled with urgency.
Hearing Stun Zen back down, many strong individuals on the high wall felt it was surreal. This was Stun Zen, a powerful ninth rank spirit Imperial master, in all of Bloodstone Pass, besides Silver Lucas, there was actually someone who could make him wary.
And this person was just a young man!
However, just as everyone thought Blaze Regret would accept this huge compensation, a cold voice suddenly rang out.
"Sorry, I refuse."
Seeing Stun Zen's incredulous expression, softly said, "Master Stun, if you think I'm just a rookie passing through, you're gravely mistaken. Since you have a powerful backing, if I let you go, I might be the one in danger in the future."
As Blaze Regret finished speaking, a fierce glint flashed in the Rock horn Dragon Rhinocerous's eyes. Its spirit power covered hands swung forcefully, pulling out the bone spurs from the Bone Armor Rhino's chest one by one.
It wouldn't forget that these spurs had pierced through its fists several times.
Looking at the dying Bone Armor Rhino, the Rock horn Dragon Rhinocerous lifted its foot and stomped down on its head without hesitation.
"Crack!"
The sound of bones shattering echoed, and Stun Qistin's face on the high wall turned extremely horrified. If she hadn't made threats, Blaze Regret would likely have accepted the enormous compensation of three hundred thousand gold coins. Now, with the death of the Bone Armor Rhino, she was undoubtedly partly responsible.
"Sigh, Master Stun is quite a figure, but how did he end up with a daughter like that? Truly unfortunate for the family."
"Heh, she exposed her cards so easily. I wonder what kind of force is really behind the Stun Family."
"Even if that force is powerful, so what? With the death of his chief spirit beast, Stun Zen is crippled for at least three years. This injury is far more severe than breaking a spirit contract."
The whispers around her made Stun Qistin's lips turn pale. She vaguely realized the trouble her actions had brought upon the Stun Family. The grim looks from Walker Lin and others guaranteed that the now crippled Stun Family wouldn't have a bright future.
And all of this was caused by her arrogance.
"You little brat, I'll fight you to the death!"
With the Bone Armor Rhino dead, Stun Zen trembled, warm blood spurting wildly from his mouth. He raised his head, glaring viciously at Blaze Regret, a black blade quickly forming in his palm.
Blaze Regret smirked slightly, clenching his fist. If he could shatter spirit Imperial beasts, a spirit Imperial master was no threat.
However, to everyone's surprise, after charging a few steps forward, Stun Zen suddenly turned around, transforming into a black shadow and swiftly darting away, like a trail of black smoke.
"You little brat, I'll make you regret this!"
"Ghost Shadow Step, huh," Walker Lin murmured, a cold laugh escaping his lips as he watched Stun Zen's retreating figure.
