Beastfolk Never Become Slaves, Unless Food and Lodging Are Included

Xuan Heng looked at Dun Dun's sincere expression and chuckled.

"Of course there'll be food."

Dun Dun's eyes immediately lit up.

"Then I'll lead the way."

Six Ears, standing nearby, twitched at the corner of his mouth.

"You agreed way too quickly. A few meals of bamboo and you've sold out your old home."

Dun Dun puffed out his chest righteously.

"If there's bamboo to eat, and the clan can eat too, why wouldn't I agree to something so good?"

Kong Xuan looked at Xuan Heng.

"Master, are we leaving now?"

Xuan Heng nodded.

"The sooner we bring them back, the sooner they can nourish their vital energy and blood. If we wait until that war begins, it'll be too late to find them."

After saying that, he swept his sleeve and departed Profound Pure Peak with Kong Xuan, Six Ears, and Dun Dun.

Once they left Profound Pure Peak, Dun Dun took the lead while Xuan Heng, Kong Xuan, and Six Ears rode atop a cloud behind him.

Seeing Dun Dun pick up speed below, Xuan Heng immediately accelerated as well.

"Hold steady. We're speeding up."

"Don't worry, Master. Senior Brother and I are Taiyi Golden Immortals. How could a gust of wind possibly blow us off?"

Yet the moment Six Ears finished speaking, he realized he had underestimated Xuan Heng's speed. A sudden burst of inertia sent him tumbling straight from the cloud, while Kong Xuan had already grabbed the corner of Xuan Heng's robe.

"Catch up on your own. We'll go on ahead."
