Northern Plains, Great Hill. A fierce battle had reached its most critical moment.
On one side were three Gu Masters; on the other was a flock of sheep on the scale of a Beast King.
Two Gu Masters held the front, retreating step by step before the menacing sheep flock. The man behind them wore white robes stained layer upon layer with blood. His face was like jade, but his expression was weary and exhausted, his breathing ragged, his eyelids lowered.
Suddenly, a roar rang out. A Beast King Mountain Ram led the elite sheep at its side in a charge toward the three Gu Masters.
The charge grew faster and faster. The sheep flocks on either side were like raging waves of a torrential current, constantly parting to leave a path.
Within a few breaths, the ram king and the others were already right before their eyes.
"Young master, retreat quickly!"
"The situation is dire. We'll stay behind to cover you, young master. There will be plenty of time in the future!"
Seeing this peril, the two Gu Masters at the front were so enraged their eyes nearly split, shouting repeatedly.
But the man behind them seemed to be in an extremely poor state, as though he had not heard them at all.
One of the Gu Masters showed a resolute expression and made his decision at once, shouting, "Dong Pokong, you are a Flight Master. Take the young master and leave immediately. I'll hold them here!"
Dong Pokong's body trembled as he looked at his companion, a hint of hesitation on his face. "Tan Wufeng..." In his early years, Tan Wufeng had been a Demonic Path Gu Master. Together with Water Demon Hao Jiliu, he had been known as the Wind Water Twin Demons, famed throughout Northern Plains.
