Chapter 229 — Offense and Defense
Wangyue Pi kicked the black bear on its backside, cursing, "Useless thing, why don't you hurry up and leave!"
The black bear shivered, hesitated as it glanced at Xue Qiming, and then turned and bounded back to the army formation as fast as its four bear paws could take it.
Wangyue Pi turned around and glared at Xue Qiming with rage, spitting a globule of saliva onto the ground.
Xue Qiming wasn't bothered, smiling as he said, "There's an old saying in the Ruen Dynasty, a decorative pillow is pretty to look at but useless. Isn't that precisely what that beast is?"
Wangyue Pi slowly walked toward Xue Qiming, holding his double hooks, saying, "We Great Qiang don't have so many sayings. We sons of the steppes prefer to let our fists do the talking!"
As the last word left his mouth, Wangyue Pi suddenly ran forward, closing the distance between them in an instant. He raised his hooks high, like a praying mantis raising its pincers, ready to deliver a deadly strike to his prey!
Killing intent erupted!
Clang!
The momentum of the falling hook stalled, as it was blocked by a chain that suddenly appeared above Xue Qiming's head.
Xue Qiming held both ends of the chain tightly in his hands, and a deadly barb-like hook hovered just three inches above his head.
The curved hooks glinted with a chilling light. Wangyue Pi's face turned red as he exerted more force, but the hook refused to move even a fraction.
