Modi Shi immediately reined himself in. As one of Heaven's Favored, he possessed special gifts beyond the mental power hidden within his mind.
From Jiang Li, he sensed a danger no less than that posed by those demons.
He even felt that the man before him was a demon, yet his premonition told him that this very man had come to save him.
Like a demonic god, Jiang Li rose from the Holy Temple with Modi Shi in tow.
Having slaughtered every mutant beast in Bocheng City, he was ready to head for the next city.
But just as he was about to leave, a radiant glow lit up the sky ahead. Soon, a figure appeared in Jiang Li's sight.
Before the newcomer drew near, a low lion's roar reached them. It carried a strange mental power that swept across all of Bocheng City.
The civilians and martial artists, terrified and ignorant of what had happened, actually began to grow calm beneath that roar.
The newcomer looked like an immortal descending to earth, clad in pristine white robes. Beneath him was a mutant beast with snow-white scales, jewel-like eyes, and a whip-like tail ending in a curved, sickle-like hook.
"A Second-Grade mutant beast—no, a Second-Grade Beast King!"
Jiang Li immediately sensed the White-Scaled Lion's aura. He also saw the immortal-like middle-aged man, whose wavy hair fell over his shoulders.
The man did not look like someone from Rakshasa Country. He looked more like a native of Great Xia.
Yellow skin, black eyes!
"Guardian God Li Shu!"
Beside him, Shi looked uneasy. The man before them, Li Shu, was one of the Holy Temple's eight most powerful Guardian Gods.
The Guardian Gods were the Holy Temple's strongest protectors. There were eight in all, and they had held sway over Rakshasa Country
