"Golden-Eyed Wind-Chasing Eagle!" A voice in the crowd exclaimed, recognizing the fierce flying beast.
The Golden-Eyed Wind-Chasing Eagle was a high-level monster, its strength comparable to a powerful human at the Mystic Boundary once it reached adulthood. With its formidable flesh, its combat power soared even higher, nearly approaching the second tier of the Mystic Boundary. The creature before them was a newly matured beast!
In an instant, the Golden-Eyed Wind-Chasing Eagle shattered the sword aura that Chen Ming had unleashed. Its golden eyes immediately locked onto him!
Just moments ago, Chen Ming had been brimming with confidence, but now he was filled with terror. How could such a beast suddenly appear?
Without a moment's hesitation, Chen Ming dispelled all his murderous intent and frantically retreated into the distance.
"Run!" he shouted back at the people from Holy Spirit Palace.
No matter how many treasures he had inherited, he dared not act recklessly in front of such a ferocious creature! Moreover, the appearance of a high-level monster signified the onset of a Beast Tide. If he didn’t leave now, it might be too late when he decided to.
Seeing this, Leng Yue also dared not delay. A serious expression replaced her usual allure.
"Retreat! Quickly!"
The members of Holy Spirit Palace understood the gravity of the situation. They didn’t have time to ponder why a high-level monster had suddenly appeared and quickly followed Chen Ming.
At that moment, the people from Heaven's Gate and Golden Sun Sect also reacted.
Cloud Sword Elder and Blazing Sun Elder exchanged deep glances at Holy Spirit Palace, which had fled without warning, their eyes flickering with dissatisfaction. However, given the urgency of the situation, they dared not linger and hurriedly led their disciples away.
If another Beast Tide were to descend, even they, as strong practitioners at the Mystic Boundary, would likely be left with nothing but bones.
In just a few breaths, the once-dense forest was left only with members of Imperial Academy.
Instructor Lin Xuan wore a serious expression as he urgently instructed his students, "Hurry up!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand to unleash spiritual energy that enveloped Chen Li and Shen Qingyue before throwing out his Flying Sword and speeding away into the distance.
Chen Li sat cross-legged on his mentor Lin Xuan's Flying Sword, completely at ease, with no trace of tension or worry. His gaze was fixed on the direction of the Golden-Eyed Wind-Chasing Eagle, and a hint of a pleased smile crept onto his lips.
At that moment, the Golden-Eyed Wind-Chasing Eagle had flown towards Chen Ming and the others, and it seemed that the group from the Holy Spirit Palace was in for a tough time! Shen Qingyue sat obediently to one side, her big eyes wide open as she stared at Chen Li, revealing a mix of scrutiny and understanding.
Did you do this with that beast?
Hearing this, Chen Li immediately sat up straight and playfully made a gesture to Shen Qingyue to keep quiet.
Shh.
Shen Qingyue looked at Chen Li, her beautiful eyes sparkling with a strange delight. Although she hadn’t done anything herself, she felt an inexplicable thrill. If only she had been as ruthless towards those who betrayed her back then, perhaps she wouldn’t have faced such a near-death experience. She couldn’t help but wonder what strange thoughts were hidden in her brother’s mind. This guy was becoming more mysterious by the day, and her curiosity only grew.
After an unknown amount of time flying, they finally landed back on the ground. Mentor Lin Xuan guided the sword with Chen Li and Shen Qingyue for a bit longer before cautiously descending into a relatively open valley.
Let’s take a break here for now. Lin Xuan retracted the Flying Sword and surveyed the surroundings, his brow slightly furrowed with concern.
What’s wrong, mentor? Chen Li jumped off the Flying Sword and asked curiously.
The beasts in the Azure Wind Mountain Range are rather strange. Lin Xuan said solemnly, we should set up camp here to avoid any potential dangers.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to busy themselves with setting up defensive formations and making camp. Once everything was in order, Lin Xuan gathered everyone together again and spoke seriously. There are many beasts in the Azure Wind Mountain Range, and their behavior is erratic. A moment's carelessness could lead to injuries. We are currently trapped here, so everyone must stay alert and focused. Understood?
Understood! The students from the Imperial Academy replied in unison, their expressions serious.
Just then, a sound of rushing air came from afar as members of Heaven's Gate and Golden Sun Sect also noticed their presence and descended on their swords.
Seeing the people from Heaven's Gate and Golden Sun Sect made the faces of the Imperial Academy students turn slightly pale, especially Lin Xuan's expression which grew colder. If it weren’t for Heaven's Gate and Golden Sun Sect turning a blind eye to the actions of Holy Spirit Palace, how could Chen Ming and his group have been so arrogant?
The members of Heaven's Gate and Golden Sun Sect were clearly aware of the situation, their faces showing signs of embarrassment.
"Ahem, Brother Lin Xuan," the Cloud Sword Elder coughed lightly, taking the initiative to greet Lin Xuan in an attempt to ease the awkward atmosphere. "What a coincidence to run into you here."
"Indeed," the Blazing Sun Elder chimed in. "Brother Lin Xuan, we really are fated to meet."
Lin Xuan coldly stared at the Cloud Sword Elder and the Blazing Sun Elder, his expression showing no sign of softening. "Hmph, I see you two have forgotten your manners. When I was nearly killed by someone from Holy Spirit Palace, you didn't dare make a sound!"
The Cloud Sword Elder and the Blazing Sun Elder instantly turned red with embarrassment, clearing their throats several times to alleviate the tension.
"Brother Lin Xuan, we were wrong before. We were just afraid of attracting trouble," the Cloud Sword Elder explained with a forced smile.
"Afraid of attracting trouble?" Lin Xuan scoffed. "It seems you’re only brave when it comes to picking on those weaker than you. When Holy Spirit Palace was strong, you were all too eager to hide behind them, and now that you see us alone, you want to get chummy?"
"Brother Lin Xuan, you've misunderstood us. We truly didn't mean it that way," the Blazing Sun Elder hurriedly clarified. "We just think that given our current situation in Misty Qingfeng Mountain Range, it would be better for everyone to join forces. That way, if any unexpected situations arise, we can look out for each other. Don't you agree?"
Lin Xuan snorted coldly and remained silent, clearly unwilling to engage with them.
Seeing this, both the Cloud Sword Elder and the Blazing Sun Elder looked somewhat displeased but dared not show it; they could only stand awkwardly to the side.
"Master, why not just agree with them?" Chen Li suddenly spoke up.
Lin Xuan and the other students looked at Chen Li in surprise, not understanding why he would speak on behalf of Heaven's Gate and Golden Sun Sect.
Even Shen Qingyue looked at Chen Li curiously, her eyes filled with intrigue. She had a feeling that her younger brother was about to stir things up again!
Although Chen Li hadn't said much yet, she felt a flicker of anticipation rising within her.
