Through the Wasp King, Wang Daoyuan ordered the Soul-Chasing Wasp to explore the Sky Slash Mountain Range, paying special attention to the distribution of Rank 2 demonic beasts.
In a Beast Tide, Rank 1 demonic beasts were only cannon fodder, while Rank 2 demonic beasts were the main force.
He had been in the Sky Slash Mountain Range for more than ten years, so he had a certain understanding of the distribution of Rank 2 demonic beasts nearby.
If a Beast Tide was about to happen and the demonic beasts gathered, Rank 2 demonic beasts would definitely participate.
The number of Rank 2 demonic beasts at the edge of the Sky Slash Mountain Range would obviously be less than normal.
If there were no obvious abnormalities in the number of Rank 2 demonic beasts, it meant that there would not be a Beast Tide, at least not a large-scale one.
After four hours, the Soul-Chasing Wasp returned after going 2,000 kilometers into the Sky Slash Mountain Range.
Not only did the Rank 2 demonic beasts in this area not decrease, but a few wandering Rank 2 demonic beasts appeared instead.
They would not stay in a fixed area, but would constantly wander around, and some would even clash with the native demonic beasts.
This situation was not like the gathering of demonic beasts before a Beast Tide. It was a bit like a huge change had occurred in the depths of the Sky Slash Mountain Range.
Perhaps there was a battle between high-level demonic beasts, or a natural disaster, causing some demonic beasts to be forced to flee their homes.
Even if it was not a Beast Tide, these wandering Rank 2 demonic beasts were still a great threat to the Wang Family's safety.
Although they did not have the strength to destroy the Wang Family, they still had the ability to destroy the Wang Family's businesses.
According to the Soul-Chasing Wasp's investigation, these homeless Rank 2 demonic beasts were not wandering around aimlessly.
Their movement had a certain pattern, and their direction of movement was roughly from the southeast to the northwest.
Wang Daoyuan released the Soul-Chasing Wasp again to investigate in the southeast direction.
Sixteen hours later, the Soul-Chasing Wasp returned.
This time, the Soul-Chasing Wasp directly flew over the Hundred Rivers Lake and explored in the southeast direction.
There was no obvious change in the number of native demonic beasts in the southeast direction of the Hundred Rivers Lake.
However, the number of homeless demonic beasts was clearly much more than the north bank of the Clear Stream.
These demonic beasts were constantly moving from the southeast to the northwest.
However, with the Hundred Rivers Lake in the way, it was difficult for the demonic beasts to continue moving northwest when they reached the south bank of the Rivers Lake.
Only an extremely small number of demonic beasts continued to move north along the east bank of the Hundred Rivers Lake.
The demonic beasts that came from outside the Qingxi area had used this route to come here.
Most of the Demonic Beasts were gathered at the southern shore of the Hundred Rivers Lake. There were already several hundred of them, and the number was still increasing.
Now, they could basically confirm that something major had happened far to the southeast of the Hundred River Lake, causing a large number of Second Rank Demonic Beasts to run around in disorder.
An unforeseen event that could scare away so many Rank Two demonic beasts was not something the Wang Clan could handle.
These demonic beasts would not stay where they were, nor would they obediently disperse.
With such a large number of Rank Two demonic beasts and some Rank One and Rank Two native demonic beasts on the way, it could be considered a small beast tide.
A large group of Demonic Beasts gathered together without a high-level Demonic Beast to lead them. In a short period of time, they would not have a common goal.
However, when demonic beasts gathered together, it was inevitable that conflicts would occur.
When the Demonic Beasts fought with each other, the strongest one would eventually become the temporary Beast King.
At that time, under the leadership of the Beast King, the Beast Horde would advance rapidly in one direction, and the Beast Tide would be completely formed.
Fortunately, the Beast Horde was gathered at the southern shore of the Hundred Rivers Lake. With the Hundred Rivers Lake in the way, they were unable to advance towards the northwest. They could only choose to advance towards the west or the southwest.
If the Beast Horde advanced towards the west, they would enter the Clear Glass Prefecture at around six thousand li south of the Clear Glass Marketplace. That would be the central region of the Clear Glass Prefecture.
In the north of the Clear Glass Prefecture, there was the Clear Glass Marketplace. In the south, where the Clear Glass River and the Thousand Rivers intersected, there was the Thousand Rivers Marketplace.
These two large marketplaces had Zifu Disciples of the Underworld Sect stationed there. The Thousand Rivers Marketplace had more than one Zifu Disciple stationed there.
However, in the central region of the Clear Glass Prefecture, there were no large marketplaces, nor were there any Underworld Sect stationed there.
When this Beast Horde entered the central region of the Clear Glass Prefecture, it was possible that they would annihilate many clans.
Since the unforeseen event had occurred in the southeast, the southern region of the Clear Glass Prefecture would most likely be affected as well.
However, without the gathering effect of the Hundred Rivers Lake, there should not be a Beast Tide in the south.
In the entire Clear Glass Prefecture, the area that would be least affected would be the northern region.
After the Beast Horde entered the Clear Glass Prefecture, they would either continue to gather towards the west or scatter in all directions. At most, they would have some effect on the Clear Glass Marketplace.
With the Clear Glass Marketplace as a barrier, the Beast Tide would not directly affect the Wang Clan's territory. However, it was unavoidable for some Beast Horde to enter.
He sent the information he had discovered back to the Jadespring Peak. The Clan Leader and the various Elders all let out a sigh of relief.
As long as it was not a large scale Beast Tide, it was fine. Although the invasion of a few Rank Two Demonic Beasts was not a small threat, it would not damage the foundation of the Wang Clan.
The Clan Leader also reported the news of their territory being attacked by Demonic Beasts to Yang Yong, reminding him to make early preparations.
After all, before the Wang Clan jumped out of the broken ship that was the Underworld Sect, they still had to rely on the Yang Clan to shield them from the wind and rain.
Yang Yong was currently guarding the Clear Glass Marketplace. If a Beast Tide occurred and he was not prepared, he would inevitably be punished by the Underworld Sect.
If he was removed from his post and the Underworld Sect sent an unfamiliar Zifu Disciple to take over, it would only be bad for the Wang Clan and not good for them.
If Yang Yong was able to know about the Beast Tide in advance and make sufficient preparations to avoid losses, it would be a great merit.
He had just been promoted, so it was impossible for him to be promoted again. However, if he were to make a great contribution, his position would be even more stable.
Yang Yong was still the Wang Clan's backer in the Underworld Sect. Only when the backer's position was stable could the Wang Clan have a better life.
After Yang Yong learned of the strange movements of the demonic beasts, he did not dare to be negligent. He immediately activated the spies that the Underworld Sect had placed in the Greenwillow State to investigate if there were any strange movements of the demonic beasts.
Then, he headed north of Qingli County, to see if any of the clans near the periphery of the Sky Slash Mountain Range had discovered anything strange.
Soon, some families sent back news that they had been harassed by unknown Rank Two Demonic Beasts, and some of them had even suffered casualties.
The spies of the Greenwillow Continent also sent news that a group of demonic beasts had gathered in the south of the Hundred Rivers Lake.
Yang Yong knew that the situation was serious. He immediately reported the matter to the sect to inform the various parts of Qing Li County to make preparations.
After all, Yang Yong only had the authority to govern the families in the northern part of Qingli county. He didn't have any contact with the families in the central and southern regions, so he couldn't quickly report the news.
When the Netherworld Sect learned that there was going to be a small beast tide, they reacted very quickly.
He immediately sent several Zifu Elders and fifty Foundation Establishment cultivators over. They boarded a flying warship and headed towards the center of Clearglass County.
He also issued a conscription order for all the families in Clearglass County to send out Foundation Establishment cultivators to defend against the beast tide.
The Wang Clan was naturally on the list of conscriptions. However, because of their contribution in reporting the news, the Yang Clan took care of them and only conscripted one Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Before the beast tide attacked, they would make preparations beforehand. The effect was much better than making preparations after the beast tide attacked.
At least they could set up formations in advance and rely on the Mountain Protecting Formation of the various families to deal with the demonic beasts.
The number of Foundation Establishment cultivators that needed to be conscripted was much lesser.
If the beast tide entered Clearglass County and caused a large number of casualties, the Underworld Sect would then make preparations.
The four Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Wang Clan would probably all be conscripted.
At that time, without the Foundation Establishment cultivators to guard, if there were any Rank Two Demonic Beasts that escaped, they would definitely destroy many of their businesses. Their clansmen would also suffer heavy casualties.
