Dragoness didn't lower her head and admit her mistake only because of her pride.
Her unrepentant attitude made the Bloodthirsty Iceworm and Fiery Bird gnash their teeth in anger. They scolded the Dragon Lady in beast language.
The four beasts were escorted into the Sun Moon Star Sect's main hall amidst their quarrel.
There were already dozens of people waiting in the hall. They were all administrators of the Sun Moon Star Sect. Aside from receiving missions, they were also here to report on their work.
When they saw the Sun, Moon, and Star Envoys enter with their captives, they stopped reporting and sat to the side, watching the three envoys and the four beasts.
The three ambassadors walked to the center of the hall, then bowed to the three Sect Masters on the high seats and reported, "Reporting to the three Sect Masters, we were fortunate enough to not fail our mission and have captured four beasts."
The Sun, Moon, and Star Masters exchanged glances. There was no dignity on their faces, only faint smiles.
Chuckling, they looked at the Sun, Moon, and Star Envoys with satisfaction. "Very good, the first step of our plan is complete. The next step will be very beneficial to us. Let's see what the beasts and the Poison Sect do first."
"You three have worked hard. Go and rest first, I'll give you another mission later."
The Moon Master spoke slowly.
The three envoys hurriedly accepted the order and left with cupped fists.
When they passed by the four beasts, the Bloodthirsty Iceworm, Flamingo, Soaring Sky Ox, and Dragoness struggled even harder. They even let out a string of curses in beast language.
Judging from the three sect masters' frank conversation, they definitely knew the identities of the four beasts. It was because of this that they'd sent the three envoys to capture them.
The Flamingo and Bloodthirsty Iceworm didn't hide their identities and directly reported their wealth. They declared that they were Xiao Yang's pet beasts and threatened the Sun Moon Star Sect to let them go or they'd be in for it.
The Sun Moon Star Sect was full of talented people, so most of them could understand beast language.
When they heard the four captives chirping, they weren't afraid at all. In fact, they found it funny.
The Sun Star Master was too lazy to say anything to the four beasts. He waved his hand and said, "Bring them to the prison and keep them under surveillance."
The Bloodthirsty Iceworm, Flamingo, Flying Bull, and Dragon Lady had no strength to resist. They were pushed out of the main hall and then escorted to the prison. There were experts guarding them.
Even when they arrived at the prison, the Bloodthirsty Iceworm and Flamingo were constantly cursing and threatening. However, the powerhouses guarding the prison ignored them, which made them very depressed. In the end, they shifted their focus to Dragoness.
After yelling at Dragon Lady for a while, he sighed. Then, he thought of something. He couldn't help but feel proud. He said to Dragon Lady, "At least we have people coming to rescue us. But you are in trouble. There is no way you can escape."
"Hmph, what's so great about that? Let me tell you, I'm also a big shot with a great background. Don't look down on me."
Dragoness retorted with a lack of confidence.
She had a strong personality and was very lively. She cared a lot about her face. Even if she was scolded by the Bloodthirsty Iceworm and Fiery Bird, she would not lower her head.
Xiao Yang's group of three entered the Sun Moon Star Sect's territory.
The Sun Moon Star Sect was different from the Heaven Sect and the Poison Sect. This sect was very open and welcomed people from all over the world. They didn't restrict others from entering and leaving freely. Although there were many people gathered in the Sun Moon Star Sect's territory, there was no chaos. No one dared to cause trouble in the Sun Moon Star Sect's territory.
"Senior, this is Star City. There is an inn up ahead. Let's rest there."
After the three of them entered Star City, they walked through two streets and arrived at an inn called Star City. Chen Dalong stopped and said to Xiao Yang, "Let's go inside."
"Alright, let's go."
Xiao Yang sized up the Star Inn, nodded, and walked in.
Chen Dahu was the first to enter. He paid the money and asked for three rooms. Then, he ordered the waiter to bring up good wine and food.
The three of them sat by the window on the second floor. When the waiter brought the food, they swept it all up. They were starving on the way here, so they couldn't care less about their image.
Xiao Yang wasn't very particular either. He also wolfed down the food.
When they were almost done, Chen Dalong and Chen Dahu revealed satisfied and happy expressions. They turned to Xiao Yang and said, "Senior, thank you for accompanying us on the way here. If not for your care, we probably wouldn't have been able to reach here."
They apologized to Xiao Yang, their faces filled with gratitude.
They had encountered many dangers along the way.
Fierce beasts roamed about, bandits robbed, and rogue cultivators with ill intentions.
Fortunately, Xiao Yang had suppressed them. Otherwise, they would have died long ago.
Xiao Yang waved his hand. "It's nothing. Don't worry about it. If not for you leading the way, I wouldn't have been able to reach the Sun Moon Star Sect."
He had followed the two of them because he hoped that they could lead the way. Naturally, he could protect them along the way as a reward.
"Senior, although we have been here many years ago, we only set foot in this place. We don't know much about the Sun Moon Star Sect. We plan to go out and ask around. We also plan to join the Sun Moon Star Sect and see if we can see our sister."
Chen Dalong said tactfully.
The cooperation between the two sides was about to end. It was time to go their separate ways.
They could only plan slowly. They couldn't be too hasty. After all, their strength was right there. They didn't dare to act recklessly.
Although a fifth-level Martial Ancestor was powerful, in the Sun Moon Star Sect, they were just cannon fodder.
Xiao Yang smiled and nodded. "There's no need to thank me. If not for you, I wouldn't have reached here so quickly. You can go."
Chen Dalong and Chen Dahu stood up and cupped their fists at Xiao Yang. Then, they walked out of the inn.
The first thing they did was to go out and ask around. After all, knowing one's enemy was a sure way to victory.
Xiao Yang didn't join in on the fun. Instead, he returned to his room to rest.
When he entered Star City, he had already released his spirit sense and eavesdropped on the information he wanted.
It turned out that the Sun Moon Sect, including the managers of the hundred cities, had long known that he would be coming. They had even made the necessary arrangements and plans.
For example, there was a scout from the city lord's manor in the northeast tower of the inn. He had already spread news of Xiao Yang's whereabouts.
The Sun Moon Star Sect had dared to kidnap the four beasts. They must have been preparing for this day. They saw that the Poison Sect was growing too quickly and threatened their position, so they were thinking of ways to weaken the Poison Sect.
Xiao Yang was equivalent to a third of the Poison Sect's fighting strength. If they got rid of Xiao Yang, the Poison Sect would suffer a great blow.
