Chapter 999 Fierce Battle in the Courtyard (6)

Sharol Khan, an Indian with beast-controlling abilities, was enraged to see his two lions and two cougars lying on their backs, exposing their bellies to Ali.

His two tigers had also fled hundreds of meters away, even jumping into the lake to escape, after Ali merely released a trace of her aura. The aura of a thousand-year-old cat demon was no joke; the difference between ordinary tigers and Ali was far greater than that between ordinary cats and mice.

Ali walked up and crouched down, placing her hands on the bellies of the two cougars. The cougars dared not move, appearing completely docile.

"No, you can't do this! You are beasts, you should be brave and tear that woman apart!" Sharol Khan roared, pointing at Ali.

However, the animals on the ground seemed to ignore him. Although Sharol Khan's abilities could influence the animals' subconscious and make them obey his commands, and he had indeed taken good care of them, in the face of mortal danger, it all became a joke.

After a brief exchange with the cougars, Ali found the Indian across from her to be too noisy. The little girl grew impatient and stood up, letting out a roar at Sharol Khan.

The next moment, the four animals stood up in unison, baring their teeth and slowly approaching Sharol Khan.

Sharol Khan still didn't realize the gravity of the situation. He reached out and struck the head of the nearest lion fiercely!

"You useless creatures, I've raised you for nothing... Ah!!!!"

Before he finished speaking, the lion he had hit bit down on Sharol Khan's hand. Its sharp fangs easily pierced Sharol Khan's palm, snapping the fragile metacarpals.

Sharol Khan almost fainted from the pain. He desperately kicked at the lion, trying to make it let go, but his kick was like a tickle to the beast.

At this moment, a cougar lunged forward.

In fact, compared to lions, cougars are more perfect killers. Lions rank low among felines in hunting techniques; they rely on their physical advantage and teamwork, and their individual combat ability is poor. In contrast, cougars, which are solitary hunters, are far more skilled in predation. They stealthily stalk their prey, waiting for it to get close or let its guard down. Then, they suddenly pounce, biting down on a vital spot. Crocodiles and pythons in the Amazon rainforest are all prey for cougars.

This cougar acted in the same manner. Seeing Sharol Khan's hand bitten by the lion and struggling, it crept closer, chose its position, and then sprang forward like a released spring.

The cougar's sharp teeth sank directly into Sharol Khan's throat, severing his trachea and carotid artery. Blood gushed out like an opened sluice gate. Sharol Khan could feel his life force ebbing away with the spurting blood. He had always controlled these beasts, making them tear their opponents' throats apart, but today, this fate befell him. The contrast was too stark, leaving Sharol Khan unwilling to die.

Before he had fully died, the other two lions and the cougar also pounced. The poor Indian was dismembered, a scene of extreme brutality.

Witnessing the bloody spectacle, Bice felt unwell. Just then, Ali extended her hand towards Bice.

"Go, kill that woman!"

These four beasts dared not disobey Ali's command. Moreover, having tasted blood, they were in a frenzy. The four beasts charged directly towards Bice and her companions.

In a flash, Bice suddenly extended her hands, from which four grapefruit-sized orbs of light shot out. These foolish beasts did not realize the danger of these black orbs. They lunged desperately at Bice and the others in the distance, as if wanting to release all the fear they had felt from Ali.

As the black orbs were about to touch the beasts, they instinctively dodged. However, the black orbs, which appeared to be moving slowly, suddenly accelerated and changed direction in mid-air, striking the beasts squarely.

The next moment, something terrifying happened. The black orbs burrowed into the beasts' bodies. Black mist began to emanate from them, followed by violent convulsions and agonizing howls. Then, their bodies visibly shriveled, as if all their moisture had been drained. The ferocious beasts turned into dried, furry husks.

Watching this scene, even those from the Dark Altar beside Bice felt a sense of dread. Many ambitious individuals within the Dark Altar, who outwardly paid lip service to Bice, believed they were more capable of ruling it. But now, seeing Bice's power again, they awoke from their dreams!

"Revenge Queen's Death Blight seems to have improved."

"Indeed, indeed! With the Queen leading us, the Dark Altar will surely march towards a more glorious future..."

Suddenly, whispers and flattery filled the crowd. It seemed that whether in the East or the West, flattery was an important skill. And these people were quite adept at it, speaking in hushed tones that were precisely calibrated to reach Bice's ears.

Meanwhile, the battle between Arachne Kardashian and Aurora Kuyit had reached its climax. Aurora unleashed over a dozen ice spears, while Kardashian continuously sprayed web balls, attempting to block the hail of attacks. Kardashian, who had once weighed over 300 kilograms, had now transformed into a normal human physique weighing just over 50 kilograms. The fat and nutrients accumulated in her body for a long time had all been converted into spider silk and sprayed out. If not for the two life essences Bice had given her earlier, she wouldn't have lasted this long! Furthermore, Kardashian was at her wit's end. She felt despair because she knew she couldn't produce much more silk; the substances in her body for synthesizing silk had been depleted.
