~3 min read 453 words

Hu Lei walked up.

【You've been watching me the whole time. If I called for help, your men would kill them...】

【I'm not wrong, am I, Lei?】

Seeing Jiaoqiu looked toward Hu Lei,

and said with a cold laugh.

【You're not wrong.】

【So, were you waiting for the Cloud Knights to seal off the port?】

Hu Lei asked in return.

【... No.】

Seeing Jiaoqiu was silent for a moment, then shook his head.

【It seems they don't want my escape made public.】

【That's no surprise—fear cuts deeper than claws...】

【Especially at a festive occasion like the Martial Exhibition.】

【What's here right now isn't a band of fugitives on the run, but wolves that have walked into a flock of sheep.】

【My little wolves are starving. They thirst to drink blood and flesh, and use your fear for seasoning.】

【Jiaoqiu, that shell of composure you're forcing yourself to wear looks paper-thin to me. I could tear open your skin and flesh at any moment and reveal the pitiful white bone beneath. Before me, you have nowhere to run.】

Boothill: "What the hell, how does this guy have so much bullshit to talk?"

Boothill: "He's just a stray dog, what's he barking about?"

Boothill: "Hey, good thing I'm not in front of him, or I'd sure as hell teach him a lesson!"

Stelle: "Buddy, you gotta at least draft your bullshit before you spew it, no?"

Stelle: "Sure, your body's pretty tough, but Hu Lei's got such a nasty bite, I bet he could chew right through your steel plate, no problem."

Boothill: "Tch, then I'd at least have to knock one of his teeth out!"

Boothill: "Take him down a peg!"

Hu Tao: "Gotta say, listening to this Hu Lei talk really is infuriating."

Hu Tao: "He's clearly fleeing in disgrace, yet here he is putting on the airs of some lofty hunter."

Silver Wolf: "The world really has gone topsy-turvy."

Silver Wolf: "Probably hasn't even woken up in his cell yet."

Ying: "He's only bullying the captured Mr. Jiaoqiu."

Ying: "If Hu Lei were really as brave as he claims, wouldn't he have broken out long ago?"

Ying: "Would he still need to disguise himself as the fox-folk he looks down on, hiding away so carefully?"

Jiaoqiu: "So the proud Buli war-chief now resorts to attacking others with his tongue."

Jiaoqiu: "That, at least, lets me breathe a little easier."

Jiaoqiu: "It shows that even he himself believes he's reached the end of his rope."

The video continues.

【Of course you can cling to hope, thinking your quick wits can get you out of this.】

【But remember, we're in a crowded place—you're not our only hostage.】

【Any move you make will cost innocent lives.】
