The Journey Of Yin And Yang - Volume 1 Chapter 83 Ash Born Horses Iii
“Better than me, huh?” Pot snorted as he witnessed his twin falling off the horse back faster than him.
“Don’t laugh just yet. He hasn’t completely been eliminated from the competition.” Yang pointed out.
Hot did still hold on to the rope after all, which caused him to dangle down over the ground beside the stallion. The horse then started to run and continued shaking its neck to loose the rope. This forced Hot to levitate up to the horse back.
For the second time, Hot attempted to control the leading horse but this time he didn’t pull the leash that hard. Instead he aimed to increase the distance between his horse and the others by giving some smacks to its behind.
The poor horse increased its speed and did his best to shake of Hot, but was unsuccessful in doing so. For a long while the man and the horse stubbornly held on to their opposite aims. One wanted the other to subdue to himself, while the other wanted the annoying man off it as soon as possible.
When Hot estimated that distance between the horses was enough, he once again pulled the leash with calculated force. The stallion once again ended up on his hind legs, but this time it wasn’t pushed forward by other horses. Thus Hot managed to move his body according to the horse’s movement as it fell down on his four legs and finally managed to stop it.
“Oh.” Yang exclaimed as he watched the scene below him.
“Damn it. I guess Hot will win this.” Pot was very annoyed, but still somewhat content by the situation. At least it was better if his twin ordered him around than Yang.
“Not necessarily. When an Ash-born horse gets truly pissed off… you never know what will happen.” Yang’s lips curled upwards in schadenfreude.
The stallion seemed to finally be obedient as it no longer attempted to shake off Hot. However, just as Hot was going to declare his victory, a sudden ring of yellowish flame emerged around the horse. The fire climbed up from its hoofs to its back and burned everything that it came in contact with, including the unfortunate Fire God that rode on it.
“Hot, hot, hot!” Hot screamed out as he tried to protect himself by neutralize the assaulting fire with his own.
Even though he was also using Yellow Fire, the horse’s cultivation was clearly higher and therefore suppressed his own. Thus the result was another tragic twin flying up to sky in ragged clothes while facing laughter from his pals.
