"I think there's no need to rush. Why don't we take a look first before making a decision?" Su Yun said to Yang Xichen.
"I'll go take a look!" The person who had stopped Yang Xichen glanced at Su Yun and walked away, relieved.
"Let's go." Su Yun did not bother with him anymore and turned to leave.
No one stopped Yang Xichen, but he didn't move.
"Let's go take a look. Maybe he's right." Su Yun, who had walked a short distance, heard a clear female voice.
In less than a quarter of an hour, almost everyone had gathered here.
Blood Lion and the others exuded a faintly discernible aura as they stood on the treetops.
Tong Lie saw that Blood Lion didn't intend to speak, so he raised one hand high. After the crowd quieted down, he opened his mouth to speak, "I'm sure everyone knows about the news. Some of the people here are members of those clans. At this time, Aoran College and the other forces in Soran Castle are working together to resist the spirit beast attack."
Tong Lie saw that the crowd was whispering to each other, so he continued, "Without the lips, the teeth will feel cold. From the series of events that have happened, it's not hard to find some clues."
Su Yun smiled. Was he finally going to announce it to the public?
Tong Lie continued, "It's very likely that there's a mastermind behind all of this!"
Once these words were spoken, it immediately caused a huge uproar.
Although there were many voices of doubt, there was a small group of people who had experienced the recent spirit beast hunts and agreed with this unreasonable statement.
The reason why it didn't make sense was because if it was true, it meant that there was someone who could control the spirit beasts. This possibility was almost impossible!
Tong Lie obviously understood their thoughts, "Although this statement is a little exaggerated, if it's true, then I'm afraid it'll be difficult for all of us to leave Lin Yuan safely."
This sentence was earth-shattering and instantly caused a small commotion. At the same time, a trace of panic spread.
Although the possibility of this happening was not high, everyone still could not tolerate the existence of such a potential threat that could consign them to eternal damnation!
"Then what should we do now?" Someone's voice was filled with spiritual energy.
Tong Lie seemed to have expected someone to ask such a question. A square hammer instantly appeared in his hand. It gave off a heavy feeling, giving off an extremely oppressive aura.
"Without the lips, the teeth will feel cold." Tong Lie's voice was like a great bell. With the support of his spirit energy, his voice reverberated, making everyone's blood boil.
"For now, we should advance and retreat together with the other forces in Soran Castle!"
Everyone below was in high spirits, and Tong Lie only needed to use a few sentences to stir up their fighting spirit.
There was a glimmer of hope in Yang Xichen's eyes. Qin Yuying unconsciously tightened her grip on his arm.
Yang Xichen's gaze swept through the crowd, but he did not see that youth in green.
At this time, Su Yun had already walked out of the crowd.
"Big Brother, according to our intelligence, there is a seventh grade spirit beast guarding that place. Isn't Tong Lie sending our Aoran College students there to their deaths?" Xu Qian looked at the excited crowd and asked in confusion.
"That might not be the case. I'm afraid that this matter is not so simple." Su Yun recalled the time when he caught Boötis Xiii and had a premonition.
"Knowing that there is a tiger in the mountain, but still heading there is not normal." Xu Qian fell into deep thought.
"It is said that the Dragon's Shadow has already entered Lin Yuan. After so long, we haven't seen their shadow, not even the slightest bit of news. Could it be …" Night As Fire guessed.
The strongest person in the Dragon's Shadow was already at the Spirit King Realm. Dealing with a seventh grade spirit beast would be a piece of cake. If they could take action, then it would make sense for Blood Lion and the others to make such a decision.
Su Yun's heart skipped a beat. He seemed to have grasped something.
"Let's follow them and see. They probably won't do something that they are not confident in," Su Yun said.
Tong Lie's side was also nearing the end.
"There is not much time left. Let's set off now!" Tong Lie had analyzed the situation for everyone before they set off. According to him, there should be a Spirit King Realm existence among those forces!
However, even so, they were still in a passive position.
As soon as Tong Lie finished speaking, someone took the lead and everyone headed in a certain direction.
"It seems that they are also worried." Xu Qian scanned the crowd and easily caught the worry in their eyes.
"After all, it is a seventh grade spirit beast. It is inevitable that they are nervous." Su Yun's feet moved. "Let's go too."
Night As Fire and the others saw him move and quickly followed.
It was very quiet along the way. They rarely encountered spirit beasts, so it was unusually quiet.
Soon, everyone could feel a riot not far away! What entered their eyes was a mountain full of spirit beasts, exuding an aura that shook one's soul.
"So strong! It should be a seventh grade spirit beast! "Su Yun confirmed after sensing the most powerful aura among them.
"It doesn't seem to have made a move yet." Xu Qian sensed its calmness.
"What is it waiting for …" Su Yun was puzzled. Soon, they approached the herd of spirit beasts.
"Someone is coming." In the middle of the herd of spirit beasts, a seemingly steady youth said in a deep voice.
There was a small circle in the middle. There were about two hundred people in the middle. The outer circle was blocking the spirit beasts' attacks. Some of the people in the middle looked tired. It seemed that they had just been replaced.
"People from Aoran College." Sha Tong's emotions were complicated, but there was also hope.
However, although they were in a difficult situation, they did not see any despair in their eyes.
Chalons's four-foot-long Cloud Piercing Blade was flying. When he heard this, he couldn't help but pause for a moment. After sensing it, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
There was still some distance between them. Xu Qian saw that Blood Lion and the others had no intention of stopping and asked doubtfully, "Are we just going to kill our way in?"
Su Yun's spiritual sense swept over them. "I'm afraid we don't have to make any plans."
As soon as Su Yun finished speaking, spirit beasts surrounded them.
"If we do this, we can only lighten their burden …"
"They probably have their own ideas." Su Yun looked at Blood Lion and the others. It seemed that they were not very worried.
"There are also many fifth and sixth grade spirit beasts. I don't know how those guys inside can hold on for so long." Night As Fire was speechless.
With the strength of Blood Lion, Tong Lie and the others, they could barely deal with a sixth grade spirit beast. This battle would probably be somewhat tragic.
"Let's warm up first." The Shocking Cicada Sword in Huang Zhan's hand emitted a soft hum. His eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
Su Yun smiled and shook his head. He was a guy who feared nothing.
"It's best not to take the initiative to attack." Xu Qian said. According to Su Yun's words, there might be some unforeseen events later on. In that case, it was important to preserve their strength.
Huang Zhan also knew that the situation was a bit tricky. He did not act rashly and nodded. However, he did not relax his grip on the Shocking Cicada Sword. If the spirit beasts attacked, he would immediately rush forward.
Everyone had encountered this kind of situation many times before. Therefore, there was no need for any arrangements. Very naturally, they formed a defensive formation.
"Let's wait and see." Xiao Mo's expression was somewhat grave.
There was a strange movement in the depths of the beast horde. It seemed that something terrifying was awakening. The beast horde began to become restless. Their eyes flashed with a strange light as they charged ferociously towards the Blood Lion.
"Could it be that it's going to move?" Wu Ming revealed a hint of worry at this time.
The seventh grade spirit beast had been holding back for so long. Now, it was finally going to make a move! No one here could withstand a single attack from it. Hopefully …
"Red Flame Tiger!"
Among the beast horde, a spirit beast covered in flames was extremely conspicuous. Its body was huge, and several fifth grade spirit beasts stood beside it. It was like a moon surrounded by stars.
"A middle seventh grade spirit beast!" Everyone was shocked. This guy was probably able to fight against a master in the middle stage of the Spirit King Realm. Even a teacher would have a hard time dealing with it!
"Gulp …"
Someone unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Will it make a move?" Su Yun was also a little nervous, this guy, could completely sweep away everyone here with his own strength!
The Blood Lion's calmness disappeared the moment it saw this guy.
The last time it saw this guy, he had just broken through to the Spirit King Realm. It was unknown what his chances of winning were against this Red Flame Tiger.
"It seems that there is indeed something shady behind these spirit beasts." Tong Lie clenched his fists, causing his knuckles to crack.
If that was the case, those people who died during the beast horde hunt must have been plotted against by the same force!
It was laughable that they were still guessing and suspecting each other, until this time …
"Prepare for battle!" Tong Lie's voice was loud like a bell. His roar immediately caused everyone's hearts to surge and their fighting spirit soared.
"Tong Lie!" Su Yun looked at Tong Lie, who was holding a square hammer, and could not help but praise him.
"It seems that they are still hiding some trump cards." Xu Qian had already seen through the clues.
"These people should be safe before the cards are flipped," said Su Yun.
Xu Qian glanced at Su Yun and was surprised by his unexpected words. "Are you saying that … even if we use all our trump cards, we might not be able to defeat it?"
Su Yun did not comment.
He wondered what Blood Lion and the others were relying on. If it was just the Dragon's Shadow …
"How strong is the Dragon's Shadow?" asked Su Yun.
Xu Qian knew a lot about this. "Captain Lin Moyao is an early Spirit King Realm cultivator. I think he's about the same level as the Red Flame Tiger. The vice-captain is half a step away from the Spirit King Realm. There are many Spirit Grandmasters among the others, and the weakest are at the peak of the Spirit Boss Realm."
"Is that all?" Su Yun asked in a low voice.
Just now, Su Yun had learned from Yixie that there was another seventh-rank spiritual beast hiding nearby! And it was as strong as the Red Flame Tiger!
Also, Su Yun had a rough idea of where those scoundrels were!
As for the second seventh-rank spiritual beast, Su Yun could not tell them yet, in case it caused panic.
Blood Lion and the others must have thought of it as well. After all, anyone would keep a trump card.
