The Dragon Beast Clan was the mortal enemy of the human race in Giant Eagle City.
Twenty thousand years ago, they had come from beyond the Great Thousand World and descended upon the Giant Eagle Continent, reducing the continent's former prosperity to ruins. Vast stretches of land had shattered, and countless living beings had suffered.
Under that immense calamity from beyond the domain, even Giant Eagle City, the core main city of the Giant Eagle Continent, had nearly fallen.
All other cities inhabited by humans had been overrun.
Only after ten thousand years of tenacious struggle had they barely managed to use Giant Eagle City as a foothold and begin resisting the threat of the Dragon Beast Clan.
The squad Shangguan Xue and the Tu Shan sisters, Tu Shan Bao'er and Tu Shan Yu'er, belonged to was tasked with scouting. They had infiltrated the Dragon Beast Clan's territory in an attempt to gather intelligence and prepare for Giant Eagle City's counterattack against the Dragon Beast Clan.
Unfortunately, before they could successfully infiltrate the area, they were discovered by experts of the Dragon Beast Clan.
The enemy had sent out just one squad, slaughtering every expert in their group. Only the three of them remained, carrying everyone's hopes and what little intelligence they had as they tried to flee back to Giant Eagle City.
But now, Dragon Beast Clan experts had led their subordinates to surround them completely.
Shangguan Xue's plan to buy time for the Tu Shan sisters to escape was shattered on the spot.
She bit down hard on her lips, refusing to loosen her teeth even as blood seeped out.
"Dragon Beast General, do you think we don't know about your filthy intentions?"
She pressed the sharp bone blade in her jade-like hand directly against her fair neck.
