49 Regicide part-3

Long Yu: "This is ridiculous how did they appear inside the cavern?"

Bashista: "We can discuss 'how' later on now try to stay alive and in one piece."

Spiders and more spiders poured in, the cultivators were fighting tooth and nail, there was no escape there were spiders outside the fort inside the fort.

A random cultivator, "The injured and young have barred themselves inside a large hall but we are cut off by these spiders. We have to make a way towards them."

Another cultivator: "The hell with them, they can rot we have to escape from here. I don't want to die"

Soon the unity started waning amongst them, majority wanted to flee but they have no way out.

More and more cultivator began to fall due to chaos.

"Enough!!!, have you guyscompletely lost your mind, pride, and strength, you are letting this critters who are not even a Zifu, walk all over you have you no shame, look over there a child is fighting where you grownups are herehiding behind a child's back, you should just commit suicide if you young masters and young mistress are so afraid to fight. Disgusting.", many were stunned to hear this specially from the 'Goddess' of their dreams Rong Niu.

With renewed vigor they started fighting pushing back the spiders, men and beast fighting side by side. After the little speech Rong Niu made her way towards Long Yu who was at the forefront, her steps looked as if she was dancing.

The frontlines were messy, corpses were piling up like small hills, the spiders were not even Xiantian, let alone Zifu Disciple, some were even Houtian, normally they would be no problem but after fighting endless waves they started to feel tired not to mention sometimes a few Zifu would be mixed with them causing problems as they implemented hit and run tactics they were feeling tired.

Suddenly a large screech was heard, a Human faced Spider-scorpion was pouncing on Long Yu, the smallest but a dangerous target, it was attacking from behind Long Yu, Rong Yu was about to shout out a warning and while try to defend him, but suddenly half a dozen daggers suddenly imbedded themselves on the abdomen, as they pierced through it killing the spider, the daggers then flew back towards Long Yu as it formed a circle behind his back as if to protect him.

Ruth: "The hell was that?", as the Shadow Wolves eyed wearily at the daggers, which were at least a Peak Wanxiang Adept treasure from the aura itself

Long Yu: "They are my daggers which I use as my flying weapons, I am hybrid cultivator so this things are easy for Me.", in a nonchalant tone, anyone who heard him had a mad twitch at their brow, 'what the hell did his parents feed this child.'

The tide of spiders suddenly ended, they could clearly see a huge hole has been dug on the side of the cavern, through which they invaded, the people of either side who were protecting the injured and young met up with the others, as they stood warily looking a the huge hole, although there was a massive pile of spider dead bodies, they were not unscathed themselves they also suffered some casualties, and some of their members missing, mostly kidnapped during the chaos.

A cultivator named Kinsuke spoke up, "Well the assault stopped for the time being, but does anyone know about the casualties?"

A Violet horned Viper, a close aide of Sakkara spoke out, "39 are dead and about 50 are missing.", many clenched their hands, many who had planned to hide till the end of the trials were rethinking their strategy by the way things looked they would not see the next day let alone survive for so long.

"So what now?", a random Wanxiang Adept beast asked, a question which was in everyone's mind.

Sakkara: "I know this might sound stupid, but I think it is high time we take the offence towards them this time as the saying goes, 'offence is the best defense',hence I propose to follow them back towards their lair and launch an attack."

Cheeta: "Are you insane? It will not work we will die even before we reach them."

Sakkara: "Then what do you want us to do wait here to die, I refuse.", they glared at each other their aura flaring up.

Suddenly they heard a sound of clearing of throat near them they turned to glare only to cower at the sight of angry stare they were receiving from Chamelie.

"As much as it was amusing to see the drama, I think you guys should think about how to deal with this tunnel as well as how to deal with the invasion, instead of trying to fight amongst yourselves."

Bashista: "If I may my lady, we can rig the tunnel with booby-traps so that the next time they try to invade, we can remote detonate them killing them most of them.", an idea he borrowed from Long Yu

Chamelie, "An excellent idea but unfortunately they are here already.", as soon as those words were uttered a humongous pressure enveloped everyone making many to bow down on the ground, some of them had despair written on their face.

Chamelie looked around as she saw most were on the ground some even forced to prostrate on the ground. She sighed at the condition of the Zifu Disciples, when even Wanxiang Adepts were having trouble, before she saw Long Yu who was standing tall as if the pressure did not bother him, before he looked around and quickly assumed a kneeling position, but as she was near him he could see he was in a position where he could attack if needed., she gave a small smirked in approval, the child is really vicious.

Mean while many different scenarios ran through Long Yu's mind, he knew that there are places to show off but not here, thus he assumed kneeling down stance as he prepared to rush in and attack, but he needed an opportunity, a plan formed in his head as he smirked before lowering his head, he knew the next few moments would decide who is the predator and who is the prey.

The plethora of various spiders came in but none attacked as they soon parted and stood a t the side as a ghastly looking white colored Human faced Spider-scorpion strolled in as if she owed the place. The human look alike appendage was more alluring to look at than others of the same species, her dozens of eyes were sucking in the sight in front of her, as her legs made a clacking sound.

A raspy voice came in, "Ah, what obedient pets who knows how to greet their owner", she joked on seeing the position of those of her opponents, "Hello Chamelie you looked well with that new makeover, how are you doing? And where are your children, I hope they are as tasty as you husband."

The other spider started to mock at her, but Chamelie had a smile on her face, Long Yu looked at her from his kneeling position and shivered he had seen that smile on his master's face before they punished him, he just want to curl up in a ball and cry.

Long Yu watched with rapt attention at the proceeding, he will hunt his prey when the time is right.

Chamelie: "What do you want Kani? Why do all this? Why break the balance?"

The Spider Empress named Kani, "HAHAHAHAHAHA, it is simple dear because I can that's why, I wanted to conquer you all, seriously why are you fighting I just wanted you under my rule, do not I am not a tyrant I will not kill your children after all if they die who will give birth to our future incubators.", she replied her face forming a grotesque smile. "On top of this humans are here, the best incubators but they will disappear before a week I will have to take care of them before it happens."

Chamelie: "I won't let you destroy the lives of my children, my people neither will I allow you to harm this humans."

Kani, "Really you would stop me and with what?", as she used one of her legs as held the Chamelie's chin, who just gave her a smirk, 'why is that wretched ape smiling', suddenly a terrible pain erupted from in between her cephalothoraxes and abdomen and a loud shout, "Now kill them for our freedom, for revenge, for our kidnapped brethren". The Spider Empress was livid, the last thing she saw from some of her eyes were a mismatched draconic eyes which looked like gems stone glaring at her.
