Thus, an odd impasse ensued.
An Lin was a little confused. Was he really that terrifying?
Or could it be that the beast tribes had suddenly grown intelligent and refrained from charging into battles recklessly?
What he didn't think of was how menacing he appeared to the groundhog, what with him holding a sword in one hand and a frying pan in the other…
Xu Xiaolan also rolled her eyes in exasperation upon seeing An Lin's actions.
The groundhog before them did appear to be quite delicious, but it was a highly-intelligent life form. Wouldn't it be far too cruel to eat something like this?
However, in reality, humans eating the flesh of the beast tribes and the beast tribes feasting on the flesh of humans was quite commonplace on the Tai Chu Continent. This was the reality of the food chain.
Everyone was at the top of the food chain.
If they didn't want to be eaten, then they could only become stronger than others.
