Chapter 163: Hunting Hour

At dusk, Fei Yan left the Dragon Tribe, met up with Mo Xiao and his party, and also summoned Xuan Shuang and Ye Yuan, who was guarding the rear.

Inform them of the plan over at Long Yan's side.

Mo Xiao and his men also wore grim expressions; Jiang Wu now held several hostages in hand, which could only make them even more fearless.

Yue Ying knit his brows and said, "Jin Tong is inside Jiang Wu's tent."

Fei Yan couldn't help but furrow his brow, but he quickly regained his composure.

Now Jin Tong's life is linked with Wife Master, and Wife Master can still control him, so there's no need to waste much time on him now.

Just focus on dealing with Jiang Wu.

After finishing the business, Yue Ying asked about Su Mo's situation.

Fei Yan replied coolly, "All fine."

The fox's gaze swept over the faint bite marks on Fei Yan's neck, easily making his seven orifices emit smoke.

There was an urge to snap Fei Yan's neck…

Mo Xiao didn't look away either; his heavy gaze had already scanned Fei Yan's neck for the third time.

They knew that, although Wife Master talked tough, she wasn't like that back then. Even when pressed, she would act proactively, but generally she didn't like leaving marks on them.

But she actually bit Fei Yan, and bit so hard…

In this case, either emotions slipped out of control, or Fei Yan was being overly cruel.

Either way, it would drive everyone present mad.

After finishing the business, Fei Yan intended to return to the Dragon Tribe, but Yue Ying found an excuse to keep him.

Once Long Yan's side opened hostilities, Mo Xiao and Xuan Shuang on this side would dispatch people to cooperate.

When this battle began, it wouldn't stop until a victor emerged; at first both sides were high‑spirited.

Long Yan himself was stationed there, and the soldiers' eyes burned like torches, their ice blades gleaming coldly.

"Fire the arrows!"

At Long Yan's command, a volley of arrows shot from behind, like a torrential downpour.

Jiang Wu's side was not to be outdone; she calmly took the commander's seat and sneered, "Form formation!"

In an instant, those around grabbed their weapons, forming an airtight wall. As the arrows skimmed past, sparks flew, but they didn't pierce at all.

A mocking glint flashed in Jiang Wu's eyes: "Long Yan's skill is nothing more than that."

She raised her hand, signaling the archers behind her to ready.

Before any order, the arrow that had just fallen instantly turned into a puff of smoke. Coughs erupted around in an instant!

A Ci shouted, "Poison! Take the Detox Pill quickly!"

Jiang Wu held her breath, eyes fixed on the figure on the city wall—damned Su Mo, who was poisoning again in a new way!

Before they could react, another rain of arrows fell from Long Yan's side!

This time they were truly poisoned arrows; Jiang Wu's men, caught unprepared, fell like a wave.

A Ci said gravely, "Why are you lingering? Form the formation quickly!"

But if the ranks get chaotic, it will waste time.

Long Yan was fighting for that very time; seizing the initiative, he gripped his long sword and roared, "No retreat in this death battle!"

A Ci and Ruo Xu immediately reformed the ranks, swiftly engaging.

Jiang Wu turned her head to glance at the steadfast Jin Tong beside her and said, "What are you still waiting for? Did I summon you just to watch a show?"

Jin Tong sneered, snatched a bow and aimed toward Long Yan's direction.

Meanwhile, Su Mo stood atop the city wall, her beast‑skin bow emitting a sharp cold glare.

She swiftly adjusted the bow's aim, targeting Jin Tong!

She originally intended to test the Totem's power, to see if she could kill Jiang Wu.

But now she had to change target!

The moment the arrow left Jin Tong's hand, Su Mo also timely launched that Dagger.

With a "clink", it precisely intercepted Jin Tong's arrow, snapping the shaft cleanly in two! It struck the ground, raising a puff of fine dust.

Su Mo's Dagger remained intact, lodged at Jiang Wu's foot.

Jiang Wu's expression darkened as she lifted her hand to pick it up; after seeing the Dagger, her face grew even gloomier.

What a sharp weapon—more like a blade than an arrow!

Her eyes narrowed instantly, and she thrust the Dagger back toward Su Mo, powered by internal force.

Su Mo at that moment was about to fire a second arrow at Jin Tong.

The incoming Dagger, wrapped in Jiang Wu's fierce killing intent, transformed into a chilling cold ray, aiming straight for her brow!

Xiao Jiu's scream echoed in her mind: "Host in danger, quickly use the Totem to avert the crisis!"

Su Mo instinctively touched the dark sigil on her wrist; in an instant, a powerful force surged around her, enveloping her.

Xuan Qing, at her side, sensed the danger, his eyes darkening, and immediately leapt forward.

But his speed seemed no match for the Dagger's approach; panicked, he shouted, "Watch out!"

Yet the Dagger Jiang Wu thrust back, after closing in on Su Mo, seemed to hit a solid barrier and suddenly lost momentum, clanking to the ground at her feet.

Su Mo exhaled in relief, realizing that Xiao Jiu must have secretly upgraded her Totem!

She quickly re‑aimed her beast‑skin bow toward Jiang Wu and Jin Tong.

Xuan Qing was briefly stunned.

He knew Su Mo carried a Totem, but hadn't expected it could neutralize Jiang Wu's overwhelming internal force.

The opposing Jiang Wu and Jin Tong were even more so.

He had seen clearly earlier that Jiang Wu's counterattack used six or seven parts of internal force; she is a Level Ten Beastman, and that amount of internal force is impossible for others to resist.

Logically, dealing with a female like Su Mo should be more than enough.

But now Su Mo is actually unharmed?!

Xuan Qing focuses even more on this battle. Now that Su Mo can protect herself, he no longer needs to divide his attention to look after her.

Su Mo didn't give the opposing person much time to think, and quickly shot another Dagger!

The sharp edge, aggressively approaching, even they were stunned for a moment.

Fortunately, A Ci promptly pulled her aside; with a clang, the Dagger lodged into the side of the carriage, and that piece of wood instantly split in half!

Jiang Wu's complexion grew worse; last time they had experienced Su Mo's arrow.

She couldn't comprehend how a female with no inner power could possibly escape death from her hands, let alone unleash such a murderous strike!

Could it be that she has been secretly hiding her inner power?

This is impossible! Her body has long been destroyed by her, she has no conditions to cultivate, she can only be an ordinary person in this life!

Su Mo's main target today is Jiang Wu, so she is aiming at Jiang Wu's direction again!

Jiang Wu also refuses to yield, conjuring a bow and arrow aimed at Su Mo's direction on the city wall.

Su Mo must die! She must die!

On the city wall, Su Mo's plain white robes fluttered like blades in the wind; the killing intent in her eyes was even more icy than Jiang Wu's. She has always cherished her life most—whoever wants her life, she will take theirs!

The Dagger in hand shot out like a released bowstring, heading toward Jiang Wu's arrow! In Jiang Wu's incredulous gaze, it pierced the arrow imbued with her fierce killing intent, carrying an aura that could make onlookers tremble, straight for Jiang Wu's throat.

Jiang Wu's eyes betrayed shock that could not be concealed; they swiftly turned aside to evade.

Beside them, the onlooker Jin Tong also felt a jolt of alarm—Su Mo's skills have apparently upgraded again? Just who is she?!
