One man, one scorpion, what looked like a struggle was actually a feigned illusion created by Lin Baici on purpose. After he walked over to the sundial while embracing the Golden Scorpion Beauty, his foot stumbled and he fell.
Bang!
Lin Baici used the Golden Scorpion Beauty as a cushion, crashing into the base of the sundial.
Squeak!
The sundial scraped against the ground, making a piercing noise.
Its position had moved.
Xia Hongyao kept her eyes fixed on the Scorpion Queen, ready to come to Lin Baici's aid at a moment's notice should she order an attack.
The Golden Scorpion Beauties, who had all been focusing on their respective prey, turned their heads upon hearing the sound. As soon as they noticed the shadow of the sundial's stone pillar had shifted, they burst into an angry roar.
Because their mealtime had been abruptly ended.
Especially for those who hadn't managed to eat anyone, they waved their scimitars and pounced towards Lin Baici, wanting to chop him down.
