The ripples from the two attacks were incredibly strong, and the shock waves surged out in all directions!

Countless weak Demonic Beasts cowered and trembled under the might of the two auras; it was as if there was an additional sun of silver and gold in the sky!

“Weng!”

A loud sound rang out, and the intense energy ripples in the sky crisscrossed and spread out in all directions!

Empty as water, surging without rest; wherever the gold and silver light passed through, everything was destroyed!

The top part of a small hundred-something-meter-tall mountain was directly flattened as the silver and golden light passed through it!

After the ripples passed through, the top half of the small mountain had completely disappeared; its surface was as smooth as a mirror, and radiated intense heat!

“Zeng!”

An ice blue sword appeared in the sky and swept towards the Black Tiger King’s cave without hesitation!

The sword slashed forward with an intense unyielding will—this was a sword that was determined to either succeed or break!

“Pu-chi!”

“Dang!”

The Black Tiger King’s claw swept upwards to meet it, smashing against the sword. The sword was stopped for a moment, but then continued slicing downwards heavily. A stream of silverish blood spurted out, causing the rocks to directly melt!

“How powerful! Captain Lu Bu and Vice Captain Lu Bing are so strong that they could easily kill the few of us multiple times over!

“Is that really the strength of Hundred Year realm cultivators? They’re so much stronger than us; just any random attack is not something that we can handle.”

The group of experts gasped with shocked looks on their faces. They’d never imagined that mere Hundred Year realm cultivators could be strong to such terrifying extent! It was truly inconceivable!

Such levels of strength was enough to kill tens of cultivators within the same realm with absolute ease!

The Black Tiger King shrugged off the collapsed rubble around itself and roared toward the sky. “HOU! Despicable humans, do you only know how to hide at the side and pick up small advantages? If This King was at my peak strength, the few of you would be nothing but ants to me!”

The Black Tiger King’s eyes were filled with hatred, knowing that it would not be able to escape the disaster this time. If it hadn’t been injured too heavily in that battle against that human, how would it end up being bullied by mere ants like these people today!

At its peak strength, it could easily kill tens of these weaklings with a mere swipe of its claws!

The Golden Dragon Extermination dissipated from the sky, forming a long black tail behind the Black Tiger King again.

The Black Tiger King did not fear death at all. Instead, its battling intent grew even stronger. Even if it had to die, it would not let these despicable humans have a good time!

“Back off.” Lu Bu and Lu Bing were about to attack again when Bei Feng appeared and stopped them. After exchanging a glance, the two stepped down and stood behind Bei Feng silently.

“Are you their leader? Come then, fight me! Even if I have to die, as a member of my Black Tiger tribe, I will only be content to die in battle!”

The Black Tiger King spat out a large mouthful of blood as it looked at Bei Feng. From the looks of it, its condition was extremely bad. The Black Tiger King knew that this battle could not be avoided, since every single part of its body was filled with treasures to the humans. In addition, it was very badly injured.

“You’re mistaken; I mean you no harm.” Bei Feng rose into the air and looked at the Black Tiger King calmly.

Initially, Bei Feng indeed had had some intention to kill this fellow. However, he’d ultimately given up. Not to mention that killing it would bring him a lot of danger, it wouldn’t necessarily bring him much benefit.

Although the body of a late stage Thousand Year King realm Demonic Beast was precious, it was not something he could not do without. In addition, the moment he decided to move the Lu Family to Tianhuang City, Bei Feng already made up his mind not to do anything to this Demonic Beast.

However, the final result still depended on this Demonic Beast. If Bei Feng felt that it would bring more danger to him alive, he would not show mercy.

“Hmph, don’t give me the useless speech. All humans are despicable creatures!” The Black Tiger King’s eyes widened as a look of ridicule appeared in its eyes.

“Do you still remember where you lost consciousness? It was my people who saw you in critical condition and brought you back here, giving you large amounts of spirit herbs and helping you recover. If we are despicable creatures, then what about you? What kind of thing are you?”

“Hm?” The Black Tiger King shuddered, and its mental power swept through its body. In that moment, it could see the large amounts of remnant medicinal energy in its body.

“Humans are sly creatures, who knows what kind of schemes you have?” the Black Tiger King muttered, but its tone was much less aggressive.

“I don’t have any malicious intentions towards you; it’s just that my people will be staying here in the future, and I only wish for us to stay away from each other and for you guys not to find trouble for me,” Bei Feng said as his sleeves fluttered noiselessly in the wind.

“Just that simple?”

The Black Tiger King’s eyes grew somewhat complicated, but its sense of caution had not disappeared completely.

“It’s that simple. I felt that it was worth befriending you, and since your peak strength is not bad, it’s a good thing to make you owe us a favor since we saved you,” Bei Feng admitted frankly without hiding his intentions.

He knew that the intelligence of a Demonic Beast at such a level would not be weaker than a human, and might even be superior to them. Thus, he’d spoken directly.

Several hundred li away, Chi Yan soared through the sky, its entire body covered in a layer of resplendent light, just like a real Vermilion Bird.

Its gigantic body spanned several thousand meters, and its aura was huge and impressive. Its blood-red eyes swept across the land menacingly!

Below it, several hundred Thousand Year King realm Demonic Beasts were searching in all directions. Each of them were hegemons of an area, but right now, they were obediently combing the land to look for the Black Tiger King.

“Yin!”

Chi Yan’s eyes suddenly changed as it looked towards a certain direction. Its shrill cry penetrated through the clouds, clearing the sky!

“That’s the Black Tiger King’s aura, there’s no mistake! And it seems to be in the middle of a battle? Looks like that stupid lunk is not injured lightly.”

Chi Yan turned around and hurried in the direction of the energy ripple. With a single flap of its wings, it appeared several li ahead.

Chi Yan and the Black Tiger King had already known each other for several hundred years, and it was naturally extremely familiar with the Black Tiger King’s aura. At this time, it could tell that the Black Tiger King’s condition was not good.

“Ao!”

“Wu!”

The countless Demonic Beasts on the ground roared, and hurried after Chi Yan.

Inside the mountain gorge.

Bei Feng looked calmly at the Black Tiger King, his eyes gleaming lightly as if nothing in the world could affect him.

“Human, I have to say, you’re very special.” The Black Tiger King finally turned its eyes away. It’d mostly believed Bei Feng’s words by now. After all, if these humans truly wished to kill it, they could have done so countless times while it was unconscious.

Even now, if they really wanted to take its life, it wouldn’t take them much effort too.

“Hm?” Bei Feng raised his head and looked at the sky. At this moment, a powerful aura was approaching in their direction at an extremely rapid pace!

The other side completely had no intentions of hiding their aura, and Bei Feng had immediately sensed it while it was still far away.

That aura was exceedingly powerful, like a scarlet flame that lit up half the sky!

“Looks like your companion is here for you. Since you’ve already woken up, I’ll not waste my spirit herbs. From the looks of it, you all are not lacking in spirit herbs, so we’ll be bidding our farewell now.”

Bei Feng nodded at the Black Tiger King as he brought Lu Bu and the rest and quickly disappeared.

Although Bei Feng wished to get the Demonic Beast to owe him a favor, he wasn’t about to bet the safety of himself and his men on the mercy of its powerful companion.

Now that the Black Tiger King’s companion came, Bei Feng naturally was not willing to continue staying there.

The aura in the distance was too strong, and even without meeting it, Bei Feng was certain that everyone here would be easily killed with just a single attack from that thing!

“Family Head, why did we save that Demonic Beast?” Lu Bu asked with some confusion. “How can the words of a Demonic Beast be trusted? We should have killed it from the start and profited directly.”

From Lu Bu’s point of view, Demonic Beasts could not be trusted. Even if that Demonic Beast had help, as long as they moved fast enough, they could still kill it before its companion arrived!

The moment they left this world and returned to Tianmu Planet, even if that Demonic Beast was stronger, it would not dare to enter Tianmu Planet directly. The Martial Alliance and large sects in this world were not someone to be trifled with!

Bei Feng looked at Lu Bu, and said seriously, “Would you believe me if I told you that all of us will not be able to leave this place alive if we killed that Demonic Beast?

“I’ve also thought about killing it before; however, there was always a heavy sense of pressure whenever I dwelled on the thought, just as if there was a huge ax hanging above my neck, ready to swing down at any time!”

Bei Feng shook his head. Every time he had some killing intent against it, the sense of danger would appear. If it was just once or twice, it could be ignored. But if it appeared every single time, that meant that there was a huge problem.

The Star Palace in his sea of consciousness was a great warning system for him. Every time he wanted to kill the Black Tiger King, it would shake lightly, and the chimes on its eight corners would ring unceasingly.

Lu Bu didn’t say anything more, knowing that there were some undercurrents in this matter that he was not aware of. The others all had a strange look on their faces. It turns out that the family head was just speaking whatever the Demonic Beast wanted to hear!

Just now, they still thought that Bei Feng was speaking truthfully to the Black Tiger King. But, who would have thought that he was actually just humoring it!

After the group travelled hundreds of li away, a huge Demonic Beast descended in the mountain gorge from the sky, its wingspan stretching over a kilometer. Some of the weaker Demonic Beasts directly died from the terrifying pressure!

The mountain gorge was transformed into the color of blood as many Demonic Beasts were turned into blood mist!

“Ka-cha!”

The entire ground shook as it landed. The strength of the scarlet bird was simply too powerful; just its aura caused large cracks to appear across the ground!

The Black Tiger King coughed, and said, “Chi Yan, you guys are back.”

“Black Tiger, keke, look at how wretched you look now; we asked you to guard the house, and in the end, not only was our territory ransacked, you almost died as well,” Chi Yan teased the Black Tiger King. Looking at the pathetic state that the Black Tiger King was in now, Chi Yan didn’t say anything more.

Chi Yan sniffed at the air, and asked in a cold voice, “Who was it that injured you like this? And where’s the people whom you were fighting with earlier? There are scents of large numbers of humans here, and they apparently haven’t left for long. Which direction did they escape in?”

“It was the people from the Ten Extremes Sect who injured me. There’s no mistake about it. However, I’ve also killed them all in return. Let’s return to the mountain gorge first and seek the lord’s forgiveness.”

A look of hatred flashed across the Black Tiger King’s eyes. It’d very nearly lost its life. It’d never suffered such grievous injuries before as well. As for Bei Feng’s group, a strange look flashed in the Black Tiger King’s eyes, and it ultimately did not mention them.
