They stood frozen on the spot, as if struck by lightning, because when they turned around, they saw Xueyao standing there, unharmed, her face calm as ever...
"How… how is this possible? The terrifying aura that spread from Xiong Yan just now, did she not feel it at all?"
"Exactly!"
They muttered incredulously and rubbed their eyes...
Just moments before, they had nearly wet themselves from the terrifying aura...
So they thought the weaker Xueyao would surely fare even worse, but now, they realized they had been made fools of because she really wasn't affected at all...
...
"How… how can this be with Xueyao? How was she not affected at all? This is impossible!"
It wasn't just the wizards who were dumbfounded.
Everyone else was too...
Because they all thought this scene was unscientific.
Especially Xiong Wei, who stood next to Xiong Yan...
Stupefied, he shook his head and soon, he fiercely slapped himself.
After confirming that this scene was indeed real, he bellowed, "Impossible, this can't be possible!"
Xiong Yan, somewhat downcast, heard his low roar and coldly said, "Shut your mouth!"
"Yes, Grandfather!"
After scolding Xiong Wei, Xiong Yan turned his head to look at Xueyao and smiled!
Since he was quite ugly, his smile now was very unattractive...
"Xueyao, you really have hidden your strength well! It seems that everyone in Miaojiang has underestimated you previously! Even just by this one move, your strength is indeed terrifying."
When Xiong Yan spoke, there was a slight hint of wariness...
Because he found that he really couldn't see through her...
Earlier, he knew of Xueyao and knew her to be just a common witch, so he didn't pay much attention, but now, he knew his earlier intelligence was completely wrong, her strength was indeed terrifying...
At the very least, she was definitely more than twice as strong as the other witches...
...
"Everyone says that Xiong Yan is ugly, it really seems to be true!"
Xueyao took a careful look at Xiong Yan, then withdrew her gaze and said icily, "Your strength is not bad either. But as I've said before, I won't hand over anyone, so if you have no other business here, please leave my tribe at once."
Battles and killings were of no interest to Xueyao.
So, if Xiong Yan wisely retreated now, there would be no need for them to fight to the death.
Hearing Xueyao telling him to leave, Xiong Yan restrained his smile and said, "Leave? Having finally met someone with decent strength, do you think I would leave? I was just testing you a moment ago; do you really think that was my full strength? I haven't even summoned my Gu Insect yet."
Xueyao looked at him and laughed, "Do you think I have summoned mine?"
Hearing Xueyao mention the Gu Insect, Shan Hu, standing next to Xiong Yan, quickly craned his neck, "You still have a Gu Insect? Stop joking! Your Gu Insect has long been dead!"
Shan Hu was adamant, as he knew he was the one who had killed Xueyao's Gu Insect...
Hearing Shan Hu's mocking certainty, Xueyao looked at him and coldly laughed, "Dead? You will find out soon enough!"
"Sharp-tongued!"
After mocking her again, Shan Hu turned to Xiong Yan and respectfully said, "Master, don't worry! Xueyao is just being stubborn. I exterminated her Gu Insect before, and she definitely can't have another one now, moreover, she was also heavily injured by me and is probably just putting on a front now."
After listening to Shan Hu's detailed explanation, Xiong Yan sneered darkly, "Heavily injured? Do you think I'm an idiot? Does she look like she's been heavily injured?"
"I..."
"That's enough, shut up!"
"Yes!"
As Shan Hu awkwardly clamped his mouth shut, Xiong Yan moved his neck and looked at Xueyao again.
"Xueyao, I'll have a proper contest with you in a moment. If your strength is truly impressive, then I will definitely retreat. But if you're just bluffing, then not only your daughter will go with my grandson, but your entire tribe will be finished."
"Since you won't give up until you see the Yellow River, come on then!"
"Alright!"
As they spoke, the two of them locked eyes, and at the same time, the aura around them rapidly escalated...
...
Seeing that Xueyao was not losing in momentum, a wizard curiously asked...
"What do you guys think, can Xueyao really hold on?"
"I think it's hopeless!"
"I think so too!"
"Me as well!"
After hearing the question, the other wizards frowned and quickly shook their heads...
They admitted that Xueyao's performance had indeed shocked them!
But even so, they did not believe Xueyao really had a chance to win against Xiong Yan.
The gap between the two was simply too great, it was unbridgeable...
...
"Mom, you have to keep it up!"
On the side of the Xuefeng Tribe, Xue Lianlian, clenching her fists tightly, nervously bit her lower lip.
"Lian'er, don't worry so much. Your aunt definitely won't have any trouble."
"That's right!"
Hearing how nervous Xue Lianlian was, Yue Lingyu and Yue Lingsnow both lightly laughed and spoke.
Hearing their comforting words, Xue Lianlian looked at Xiong Yan and still felt a bit uneasy, "But the opponent is very strong, I'm really worried."
"Don't worry, if the opponent was really strong enough to hurt your aunt, Master Xiaobei would have jumped up already. He's still lying there sunbathing, which means there's really nothing to worry about."
"That's the truth!"
"Yeah! That makes sense!"
Hearing their cheerful reassurances, Xue Lianlian looked at Hu Xiaobei, nodded her head with a smile...
...
"Go Xueyao Wizard!"
"I believe Xueyao Wizard will definitely win!"
"Absolutely!"
"For sure!"
As Xue Lianlian relaxed, all the people of the Xuefeng Tribe clenched their fists excitedly.
They were full of confidence in Xueyao...
They knew, Xueyao was the tribe's only hope, so they had to be confident in her now.
...
On the field, the energies of Xueyao and Xiong Yan fiercely countered each other...
"How is this possible!"
Watching Xueyao not falling behind at all, Xiong Wei and Shan Hu were infuriated...
Earlier, they thought that with Xiong Yan stepping in, they could quickly achieve their goal, but now they realized it wasn't so simple!
"This Xueyao's power is much stronger than the other witches! It looks like we really need to show some real strength!"
Narrowing his eyes pensively, Xiong Yan took a deep breath.
At this moment, Xiong Yan once again began summoning those evolved Gu Insects.
Instantly, a series of terrifying auras quickly gathered behind him.
A second later, a golden phantom rose behind him.
"This... how terrifying!"
The watching wizards, seeing the golden phantom, instinctively took a few steps back.
They felt an absolute terror and oppression emanating from it.
Seeing the onlookers instinctively stepping back, he smirked proudly and shouted, "Everyone open your eyes and watch carefully, this is the power of the evolved Gu Insects!"
Having said this, he continued to summon wildly.
Shortly after, a more fierce and terrifying wild aura rapidly approached, silencing the crowd at the scene with its sweeping force...
