In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, there is a beast called Jiao, which resembles a dog but has the markings of a leopard and horns like a cow. Its cry sounds like a barking dog, and when it appears, its country will experience great prosperity.
This refers to Jiao!
Both of these creatures are unique beings in the world. However, there is no record in the texts about them offending the Qilin Clan, which makes Qian Mo feel somewhat intrigued. It seems that the Qilin Clan must have pressured them quite severely back in the day, forcing them to abandon their dignity as members of the Beast Clan and turn to the Birds. While this might be understandable for ordinary groups, for sufficiently aged high-ranking beasts, it is nothing short of a tremendous disgrace!
It is said that during the Primeval era, the world was controlled by three clans. These three clans do not refer to just three groups but rather symbolize more: the Bird Clan, the Scaled Armor Clan, and the Beast Clan.
The Bird Clan revered the Phoenix, while within the Scaled Armor Clan, the True Dragon held imperial status, and the Beast Clan worshipped Qilin as their leader. They once fought fiercely for dominion over this world against all other beings, plunging it into chaos and darkness. After a hard-won ceasefire, they were further manipulated by petty individuals, falling into traps that completely robbed them of any chance to recuperate. From then on, their power was greatly diminished; although they remained one of the top divine beast clans of Primeval, they could no longer command all beings as they once did!
Subsequently, various super beast clans began to amass power and compete fiercely during the prosperous era of Primeval!
Both Zheng and Jiao were among the most active beasts during the Three Clans War. In that era when the three clans held supremacy, being forced into becoming traitors of the Beast Clan was undoubtedly a disgrace. In terms of seniority, these two were significantly stronger than Yayu. As for Er Lai and Qing Tong, they didn't even qualify to be mentioned in comparison! They were mocked as small fish and lackeys; these two wouldn't dare make a sound! Ultimately, they merely succeeded in transforming due to luck. Although the Azure Water Crocodile Clan and Azure Wolf Tribe are also powerful groups, they ultimately failed to transcend their mortal forms and enter the ranks of super beasts. Now they truly faced dual oppression in both rank and strength; it took immense courage for Er Lai and Qing Tong to hold their ground without fleeing!
"Yayu, are you seeking death?!"
Hearing such mockery was like reopening old wounds that had been sealed for years; it was undoubtedly something both of them wished to forget. Even though the Qilin Clan is no longer what it once was, it remains one of the most powerful clans in existence today, still pressing down on them heavily. After all, while the Human-Faced Owl Clan has enough confidence to protect them, it is only so much; they cannot recklessly seek revenge against the Qilin Clan...
Both Zheng and Jiao were filled with rage at this moment; they shouted loudly as shadows flickered behind them. It seemed as if there was an explosive sound resonating through heaven and earth as they locked onto Yayu with deadly intent. If Yayu dared utter another word of arrogance, they would not hesitate to unleash lethal force!
"Uncle Zheng, Uncle Jiao, I came here for your support but ended up being provoked by that Yayu. Our ancestor has long said that this is your mental block; if you cannot overcome it, you may never cross the final step of the Law of Heaven and Earth. Just so you know, I want Yayu dealt with by me later; you can handle that foolish fish and lackey! Also, don’t call me Miss Owl Sound; I have no such name since that man abandoned my mother years ago. My name is Bai Yin!"
