Chapter 94: Traces
Just as Wang Yi was sleeping soundly with the beauty in his arms, a huge change occurred in the endless wilderness.
Thousands of miles away from Cang City, there were no signs of plant growth on the grayish-brown ground. It was as if it had not rained for many years. Huge cracks intersected everywhere.
Dead silence and desolation were the main themes here. Apart from the occasional few bird-type beasts flying past in the sky, this place could basically be said to be deserted. Even beasts were unwilling to come here.
At this moment, there was a ferocious beast that was several meters tall and looked like a Tugou1. Its eyes were fixed on a drop of dried blood on the ground, and it was still sniffing it with its nose.
Suddenly, the beast seemed to have discovered something. Its eyes lit up, and a human-like look of ecstasy appeared on its beast face.
Then, the beast sniffed at the drop of dried blood again. After that, it aimed in a direction and suddenly rushed out.
During this period, the dog-like beast always found the same dried blood in different locations.
As it found more blood, its eyes grew brighter and its expression became more excited.
It was not until it could vaguely see the outline of a huge city that there were no more traces of blood. When it saw the words carved on the city gate, it instantly ran in the opposite direction.
In a huge valley, endless beasts gathered in what seemed to be the base camp of dire beasts.
A Beastmaster looked at the dog-like beast below it and asked solemnly, “Do you know the consequences of lying to me?”
The dog-like beast lay on the ground and said in a trembling voice, “This matter is absolutely true. Chu Li will definitely not dare to lie to you.”
“After I discovered the Silver-Winged Beast King’s blood in the Silent Desolate Land, I followed it.”
“It wasn’t until I was outside a huge city called Cang City that I completely lost track of it.”
With that, the dog-like beast shook its head, and a reddish-brown crystal flew out of its ear.
Then, it said again, “Sir, this is the blood of the Silver-Winged Beast King.”
Sensing the faint pressure emitted from the reddish-brown crystal, the eyes of the Beastmaster lit up.
In its spiritual perception, although the blood had already dried up, the terrifying pressure contained in it could only be possessed by a Rank-9 Beastmaster.
This Beastmaster also knew the importance of the matter. It arranged for its beasts to stay where they were. Meanwhile, its huge figure turned into a bolt of lightning and headed towards Heaven-Breaking Peak.
In a grand classical palace at the top of Heaven-Breaking Peak…
“Hmph!”
Demon Venerable Tiandu, who was sitting cross-legged on the huge throne, suddenly snorted coldly. Space itself seemed to freeze.
A terrifying aura rose from his huge figure, causing the air to explode.
His cold gaze swept across the two beasts below and he said coldly, “After so long, we still haven’t found Silver Wing and that human called Jinlun Guoshi.”
“Golden Edge King, Wind-Chasing King, are you two trying to be perfunctory?”
Below the throne were two beasts that were hundreds of meters tall. They also had deep and majestic auras.
As Demon Venerable Tiandu finished speaking, they knelt on the ground like two frightened quails. Their heads were buried deep in the ground, and cold sweat kept dripping from their foreheads.
Even with their strength as top-notch beast kings, their voices could not help but tremble when faced with the anger of a Connate Demon Venerable. “Demon Venerable, we definitely won’t dare to act in a perfunctory manner in front of you!”
“However, after the incident at Heaven-Breaking Peak, the Silver-Winged Cloud Leopard never appeared again. There’s really no way to investigate the matter.”
Upon hearing this, Demon Venerable Tiandu did not speak. Instead, he continued to stare coldly at the two huge figures below.
As time passed, the atmosphere became more and more oppressive. It was as if a shocking killing intent was constantly brewing, ready to destroy the world at any moment.
Just as the two top-notch beast kings were about to be unable to withstand this extreme pressure…
A figure suddenly appeared in the palace and knelt on the ground. He said respectfully to the Demon Venerable Tiandu on the throne, “Lord Demon Venerable, the Camel Mountain Beast King has requested to see you. He says that he has discovered traces of the Silver-Winged Beast King.”
As soon as the figure finished speaking, the terrifying pressure in the entire palace instantly disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
The kneeling Golden Edge King and Wind-Chasing King suddenly heaved a long sigh of relief. A hint of joy flashed across their eyes as if they had survived a calamity.
On the throne, Demon Venerable Tiandu smiled and said calmly, “Let him come up.”
Not long after, the beast known as the Camel Mountain Beast King walked into the palace.
Along the way, he almost did not dare to look up. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed behind the Golden-Edge King and Wind-Chasing King. “Greetings, Lord Demon Venerable!”
Demon Venerable Tiandu glanced at him and asked directly, “Were you the one who discovered Silver Wing’s traces?”
When the Camel Mountain Beast King heard this, it hurriedly took a few steps forward and said, “Lord Demon Venerable, there’s a ferocious beast under my command called Chu Li. Chu Li found the blood left behind by the Silver-Winged Beast King in the Silent Desolate Land.”
“After that, he tracked it all the way until there was no trace of the Silver-Winged Beast King outside Cang City.”
As soon as the Camel Mountain Beast King finished speaking, it took out the reddish-brown crystal from before.
Demon Venerable Tiandu raised his eyebrows slightly and waved his hand. The reddish-brown crystal appeared in his hand.
Then, he nodded slightly and a smile appeared on his face. Not bad. It was indeed Silver Wing’s blood.
He looked at the still-kneeling Camel Mountain Beast King and said, “You’re not bad. Get up.”
The Camel Mountain Beast King looked at the two top beast kings, who were still kneeling in front of him, and suddenly had a plan.
Feeling a little guilty, he stood up and said respectfully, “I’m ashamed and don’t dare to take credit. I went to the Silent Desolate Land to investigate under the orders of Lord Golden Edge King and Lord Wind-Chasing King.”
Demon Venerable Tiandu swept his gaze across the two top-notch beast kings and nodded slightly. Then, he said, “At least you guys are meticulous. Get up.”
“Since we’ve already found traces of Silver Wing, you two Kings, make a trip to Cang City and bring Silver Wing back to me.”
“If anyone dares to stop us, kill them without mercy!”
After saying that, Demon Venerable Tiandu waved his hand below. “Go!”
“We accept the order. We will capture the traitor, Silver Wing, and the human powerhouse, Jinlun Guoshi, as soon as possible and hand them over to the Venerable.”
Golden Edge King and Wind-Chasing King replied almost at the same time with serious expressions.
Then, they left with the Camel Mountain Beast King. Only after leaving the palace did the two top beast kings heave a sigh of relief.
They looked at the Camel Mountain Beast King in front of them with gratitude in their eyes.
The Golden Edge King smiled and said, “Camel Mountain, I still lack a commander under me. If you’re interested, you can come to my side.”
