Chapter 693: Arrival
The light of Beast God's Power was blindingly intense; Wu Yue felt as if she were staring directly at the sun, making it impossible for her to see the situation of the Sea Snake Clan Chief within that mass of light.
Bang!
A fierce impact sound rang in her ears, the strong wind lifted the hair beside her ears, and goosebumps instantly popped up on Wu Yue's neck.
After the powerful vibration ceased, she was already tightly embraced in the arms of the Beastfolk.
Looking at Yuan Lang's firm jawline, Wu Yue's racing heart finally settled back down.
"I thought we were well prepared, but I didn't expect this Sea Snake Clan Chief to be able to emit light; it's really quite glaring."
Hearing the little female's complaining mutter, Yuan Lang chuckled and helped her stand steady: "When Beast God's Power is pushed to the extreme, it produces this effect, but it consumes a lot of energy."
Besides interfering with the enemy's vision, it has no other use, so very few Beastman Warriors are willing to waste energy on this.
"The Sea Snake Clan Chief probably used this move to interfere with the Giant Beast we're riding."
Upon hearing Yuan Lang's words, Wu Yue couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.
Fortunately, the Sea Snake Clan Chief's first target wasn't them but rather he struck the large ship first; otherwise, judging from just now, most of the people on this ship wouldn't have benefited from that attack.
Because Wu Yue, who was standing at the railing looking down, had already noticed a deep pit sunk into the ship's hull.
"My ship!"
She glared hatefully at the Sea Snake Clan Chief who had fallen back onto the sea surface, her face dark.
"The Sea Snake Clan Chief, as the strongest warrior of the Sea Snake Tribe, actually managed to damage my ship with a single blow."
The ship she had built at great cost in points hadn't even had a chance to show off properly before she suffered the fastest setback, being rammed into such a large pit.
What she didn't know was that the Sea Snake Clan Chief himself was somewhat doubting life at that moment; the force of his attack just now could easily kill even the ferocious beasts he had encountered before.
However, the Water Beast ahead only ended up with a shallow dent on its body and was otherwise unharmed, which made the Sea Snake Clan Chief's face lose a bit of composure.
"I'd like to see how long this Water Beast can protect you."
The Sea Snake Clan Chief's face showed a hint of ferocious smile, and Beast God's Power surged around his body.
Just as he was about to attack again, he saw the little shaman of the Snow Moon Tribe, who had been standing on the Water Beast's back, inexplicably raise his arm.
Although somewhat distant, the Sea Snake Clan Chief could feel that the female little shaman's gaze toward him was icy cold.
He showed a hint of ferocious smile, about to charge out, when suddenly he sensed a powerful danger strong enough to threaten his life approaching him.
The Sea Snake Clan Chief, who had hunted for many years, trusted his danger sense greatly; he turned and swam at his top speed toward another sea area.
At the same time he didn't forget to remind the tribespeople behind him: "Scatter and run, there's danger."
By the time his words faded, the Sea Snake Clan Chief's silhouette had already become a tiny black dot.
At that moment, a shaman power beam suddenly shot from the back of the giant Water Beast; wherever the deep-hued shaman power beam passed, the seawater seemed to be scorched, actually producing fine bubbles.
And the Sea Snake Clan Chief, who had just been about to attack again, looked at the spot where he had just stood.
There, the seawater seemed to be blocked off somehow, actually forming a depression two people wide.
The air was utterly silent; only after a moment did the seemingly solidified seawater surge and fill the depression.
The sea surface calmed down, leaving no trace of that terrifying strike.
The Sea Snake Clan Chief stood stiffly in place, his pupils constantly contracting, he struggled to move his stiff fingers.
That scene left an indelible mark in the mind of this powerful Beastman Warrior.
He slowly turned his head to look at the Giant Beast quietly floating on the sea surface not far away; his lips moved for a long time but he spoke no words, only gazing deeply at the Giant Beast and the Snow Moon Tribe and Sea Eel Tribe peoples standing on its back, then silently led the remaining Sea Snake Tribe members away.
Watching their gradually receding figures, Wu Yue let out a deep breath: "Good riddance, they're finally gone."
Just...
She looked with a pained expression at the small wooden house beside her that was about a person tall, thinking of that powerful attack just now...
"It must have consumed a great many Ferocious Beast Crystal Cores."
Seeing her miserly appearance, Yuan Lang, who had walked out of the small wooden house, couldn't help laughing: "They're just low-grade crystal cores; Beastman Warriors don't even use them for cultivation anymore.
"And besides, that Sea Snake Clan Chief has already left, hasn't he."
Wu Yue could only pat her chest in self‑comfort: "That's all I can do to console myself."
Although she said that, after the two exchanged a glance, they each saw the same information in the other's eyes.
If it's not necessary, it's better to use that powerful attack less in the future, after all the Ferocious Beast Crystal Cores in hand are limited.
The Ferocious Beast Crystal Cores that need to be brought from the distant Polar Forest cannot be replenished here, so good steel must be used on the blade.
"Too... too amazing..."
The little white‑faced beastman who had taken in that whole scene stood up with a face full of fervor.
"Shaman Yue, the Water Beast you subdued this time is incredibly powerful; with it by your side, as long as none of the legendary sea beasts of Bai Sha Yan Hai appear, you can basically walk sideways."
Patting the shoulders of the Happy Duo of Fools, Wu Yue sighed: "As for this Giant Beast matter, let your tribe's people tell you later; now point a direction—where is the territory allotted to us?"
The little white‑faced beastman, preoccupied with the Giant Beast's information, directly pulled a nearby tribesperson to show the way, while he himself pulled the little curly‑haired beastman to sit on the nearby deck and obediently went to listen to the story.
Without the Sea Snake Tribe's obstruction, the subsequent voyage went smoothly.
After setting sail again, the group sailed on the sea for more than two days, and Wu Yue finally saw a wide beach.
The beach isn't very large, resembling a semicircle enclosed by cliffs, with no entry or exit besides the sea.
The little white‑faced beastman who knew the truth about the Giant Beast teared up, gave Wu Yue a resentful look, then slowly said: "This small beach is the outermost edge of the Sea Eel Tribe's territory.
"You can see that although it's still within our territory, it can only be accessed from the sea surface and is not connected to our inner lands.
"Therefore this place often suffers attacks from the Sea Snake Tribe; you are all land‑dwelling beastfolk, and living here would make coming and going a major problem."
Wu Yue glanced at the steep cliff behind the beach, nodded calmly: "It's fine; having a territory here is already not bad.
"Of course, if you could give me a better piece of territory, that would be even better."
