Chapter 406: Turn the Weapon Around

“How did this happen?” Si Wen Ming, Huaxu Lie, Hao Tao and the other ministers were all shocked pretty badly.
The west, that was where Ying Yunpeng and Ten Sun Country archers under his command had been hiding. Inside that underground battle fort were all elite, senior-level archers from the Eastern Wasteland. But now, groups of treemen and spirit fierce beasts were surging out from the underground battle fort. Why, and how did this happen?
“Fight! Kill these human beings!” Song Go showed his real body, that was thousands of meters tall. He stood on the ground like a giant mountain, reaching thousands of old, mottled branches and vines out for hundreds of miles long, crazily wielding in the air.
Dense spheres of dark-green smoke had been ceaselessly spreading out from inside Song Gu’s body. Wherever that dark-green smoke swept across, plants began to grow crazily. Newly grown grass had blades as sharp as daggers, while bushes had vines as twisted as ghosts’ claws. All plants started brandishing their branches, leaves or vines and making threatening gestures, bumping against each other, continuously letting out loud and muffled clashing noises.
“That was the king of treemen in this Chi Ban Mountain area, Song Gu!” Si Wen Ming growled in a harsh tone, “A slave of the phoenix-kind! Why did he bring all those treemen here? What the hell happened to those animals?”
As a grand minister who was responsible for the human army’s defensive line in Chi Ban Mountain area, Si Wen Ming surely knew about Song Gu, who was a local villain in Chi Ban Mountain. He also knew that this Song Gu had run counter to the nature and tradition of the treeman-kind, which was being free and relaxed. He gathered a group of powerful treemen, forcibly incorporated all treemen in Chi Ban Mountain area and tens of thousands of mountains located in surrounding of Chi Ban Mountain, then became this so-called king of treemen.
Chi Ban Mountain was a vital area for the defensive line of the human army. As the old saying went, how could an outsider be allowed to sleep beside one’s bed? In this area, for unsettling beings like Song Gu, if he wouldn’t pay allegiance to the humankind, he would have been secretly disposed of by some powerful assassins sent out by the humankind long ago. However, Song Gu was subdued by the phoenix-kind as a slave, who arranged him especially for collecting all kinds of treasures for phoenixes in the Chi Ban Market. Because of his relationship with the phoenix-kind, Song Gu was able to live a pleasurable life till present!
Reasonably, Song Go wasn't supposed to show up in here!
But he had come, with tens of thousands of treemen and many fierce, spirit animals, who had been roaring ‘kill these human beings’!
“Someone, go to the Chi Ban Market… Find Feng Qi and ask her about this!” said Si Wen Ming harshly, “Tell her, if she can’t restrain her lackeys, don’t blame our humankind for heartlessness…”
Si Wen Ming paused briefly as an intense beam of light flashed across his eyes. He continued frostily, “Also tell her that if she still hasn’t given up on Dragon Pool and insists on giving us troubles for that by breaking our defensive line in Chi Ban Mountain, she shall not blame me for taking the move myself. I would kill her, skin her, pull out her tendons and turn her into an inherited magic treasure!”
The sense of power given off by Huaxu Lie, Hao Tao, Lie Mountain Kang and other ministers suddenly and simultaneously became exceptionally robust and fierce.
The humankind had been friendly with the phoenix-kind, true.
The humankind had been depending on the phenix-kind on a certain degree, true.
Historically, the phoenix-kind had given a hand to the humankind many times, even saved the humanity from destructive disasters for a few times, this was also true.
Nevertheless, if Feng Qi, an ordinary member of the phoenix-kind, dared to do whatever she wanted to the humankind merely because of what had happened in the past, she should learn that the swords of the humankind could kill as well. When beheading enemies, the humankind’s swords could be no less sharp than those of any creature in this world!
A trusted general under Si Wen Ming’s commander took the order and hurriedly left for the Chi Ban Market. Soon, a series of raging roars burst out. A big troop of elite human cavalry warriors mounted on their battle beasts, rumbling towards the Chi Ban Market.
