Lord Eagle! Retreating, a Chance Encounter with the Heavenly Wolf Mercenary Group

Zhang Xuanchen cursed inwardly, but dared not utter a sound at this moment.

Seeing Zhang Xuanchen's eyes brimming with tears, the Great Sage couldn't help but feel puzzled.

He asked, "Xuan Chen, why are your eyes filled with tears?"

"Uh... it's nothing, I just got some dust in my eyes," Zhang Xuanchen replied telepathically, making up an excuse. "By the way, how far is this place from the Shadow Lion Pride?"

The Great Sage looked around at the surroundings and said, "It's about sixty or seventy li away."

"Xuan Chen, Great Sage, we cannot go any further. There are four or five mid-stage or higher Third Stage- tier Demon Beast about sixty or seventy miles ahead, one of which is just a little short of reaching the Fourth Stage Yao Sect level."

"We're no match for them," Little Peach Tao said anxiously.

With the strength of her Divine Sense, if she wanted to, no movement within a hundred miles could escape her notice.

This is significantly better than the Xuanjing.

Hearing Little Peach's words, the Great Sage Monkey's face was filled with resentment, and his hands clenched tightly.

"Damn it, this guy really broke through to the Third Stage!"

If the Shadow Lion leader hadn't broken through to the Third Stage, there couldn't possibly be so many powerful Demon Beast in its lair. It must have joined the ranks of some overlord in the Dark Night Forest and was currently cultivating relationships with the other Yao General.

Zhang Xuanchen also sighed. He had originally wanted to take this opportunity to annihilate the entire Shadow Lion clan and fulfill the wishes of the Great Sage and the monkey troop.

But it's clearly beyond our current capabilities to do so.

If there were only two or three, there might be a sliver of a chance, but with four or five, including one that was Half-step Demon Sect Master, they were no match at all.

This grudge can only be settled later, when the Lineage and the monkey troop are stronger.

The wait won't be long.

He reached out and patted the Great Sage on the back, then whispered a word of advice:

"Great Sage, it's not possible now, but we can wait a while longer."

Don't lose your life because of a moment of recklessness. You are young, talented, and have far more potential than that guy.

What you need to do now is sharpen your claws and teeth, and strengthen your muscles and bones.

Let time bestow upon it its thunderous power!

At that time, let alone a small Shadow Lion pride, how could even the Yao Sect behind them possibly stop you?

Today they are mountains, but tomorrow they may be just mounds beneath your feet.

They... can't escape.

We'll do it together then!

Zhang Xuanchen's voice was gentle, yet full of authority, and his words were brimming with trust in the Great Sage.

The Great Sage's anger gradually subsided.

Yes, we've already waited eighty years, what's a few more?

Turning to look at Zhang Xuanchen, he said:

"Alright, let them live a few more days!"

Xuan Chen, let's go.

"Give me three seconds, I'll disguise myself."

Why are you disguising yourself?

"Stable!"

In the Shadow Lion's lair, a Demon Beast with a human body and an eagle's head, exuding a powerful Demon Qi, sat on the main seat, its sharp eagle eyes scanning the several massive Third-rank Yao General lying below.

"There is no other reason for bringing you to the Shadow Lion's territory today."

Now that you have all joined Moon Flood Dragon's ranks, you are friends, and your respective races must not attack each other!

You all know who our opponents are!

If I were to discover you fighting amongst yourselves, I wouldn't mind adding a little extra food to dinner.

Do you understand?

"We understand! We will obey your command, sir!" The Shadow Lion leader and the other Yao General all bowed their heads and growled in submission.

The eagle demon nodded slightly and spoke again, "You five's territory is the closest to the outermost edge."

The struggle for control of the outer forces rests on your shoulders. If you satisfy me, you will be richly rewarded!

After saying this, the eagle demon transformed into a cloud of Black Mist and disappeared into its lair.

"Farewell, Lord Eagle!"

On the other side, Zhang Xuanchen and the Great Sage continued running towards the outer edge of the Dark Night Forest.

With the Great Sage present this time, the Demon Qi emanating from him caused the surrounding low-level Demon Beast to retreat.

As for Little Peach, she went into the Myriad Spirit Ring to look after the newly transplanted peach trees.

She was also given an extra task: to cultivate spiritual fields within the Myriad Spirit Ring.

Don't know how to plant? The small wooden house inside the space is full of books, including many of the inheritances of Spirit Planter.

With Little Peach's talent, learning it will be incredibly easy for her.

The only pity is that the Myriad Manifestations Returning Origin Peach Tree uses a ripening agent, as its ripening effect is only effective on peach trees, but this is still enough.

Sensing the immense demonic Demon Qi emanating from the Great Sage, Zhang Xuanchen frowned slightly and asked:

"Great Sage, can you completely suppress the Demon Qi emanating from your body?"

If you can't conceal your demonic Demon Qi after leaving the Dark Night Forest, then you'll have no choice but to enter the Spirit Ring Space.

Upon hearing Zhang Xuanchen's words, the Demon Qi on the Great Sage vanished instantly, and his body shrank continuously, transforming into a Little Golden Monkey about a foot tall, entirely red-gold, covered in fluffy fur, and with an extremely cute appearance.

He leaped onto Zhang Xuanchen's left shoulder. "Is that so?"

Using his Divine Sense to examine the Great Sage, he found no trace of Demon Qi.

Possessing the bloodline of the Battle Saint Monkey is extraordinary.

He laughed and said, "Yes, that's it. That way, even if we leave the Dark Night Forest, I can still keep you by my side."

Once we reach the Market Ward or the Immortal City, we'll communicate using our Divine Sense, so as not to arouse suspicion.

"Okay, as long as you don't put me into the Spirit Ring Space, I've never been to the human world before."

This is a good opportunity to broaden my horizons.

In some inherited memories within my mind, those human female cultivators were all extremely beautiful.

"No? Aren't you a monkey?"

Shouldn't you be attracted to female monkeys? Do you expect to have an interracial romance?!

Upon hearing the Great Sage's words, Zhang Xuanchen's lips twitched. There was something strange about this monkey.

However, the Great Sage shook his little head and replied, "Who says monkeys have to be monkeys? Don't you humans also like cute Demon Beast?"

Who would want to keep those hideous and grotesque Demon Beast as pets?

Especially the beautiful women.

Just imagine how many beautiful women could resist me looking like this!

Then, hehe...

And you know what? The Great Sage wasn't exaggerating. Just based on his current appearance, he could absolutely crush the likes of Flower Fox, White Dove, Pupil Flower Rabbit.

Indeed, not many women could resist hugging him.

"I never expected you to be such a perverted little monkey..."

Huh? Wait a minute!

Haha, I didn't expect those guys to still be here. They're really tenacious!

Sensing the presence of the group twenty miles away, a hint of killing intent flashed in Zhang Xuanchen's eyes.

They actually chased them all the way to the boundary between the outer and inner perimeters; it has to be said that the Heavenly Wolf Mercenary Group has some guts.

Seeing Zhang Xuanchen's sudden change in expression, the Great Sage put away his smile and said solemnly:

"Xuan Chen, what's wrong? Are there enemies?"

Perfect timing, I've been itching to try it for ages.

Let me take care of them!

He had a burning desire inside him, and once he found someone to vent it on, he wouldn't let it go!

Hearing the Great Sage's words, Zhang Xuanchen chuckled and said:

"Fine, today I'll let you vent your anger."

He then ran towards the Heavenly Wolf Mercenary Group.

As for letting them go, that's simply impossible.

From the moment they revealed their murderous intent towards him, the outcome was already predetermined!
