"Hey, Long Jue, you are welcome to train with my weapon if you wish; for the time being, I will be looking for some beasts." Ling Yun then turned to Nan Xing before saying to Zhou Yu. "Don't release him before we leave this realm."
"I know."
Ling Yun then looked toward the distant sky. "Their higher-ups seem to be coming to this place soon, and I don't want to have any problems with them, so you know what you have to do, right?"
"Don't worry, I won't let them get close to this place, so you can fight with those beasts to your heart's content."
Ling Yun nodded to Zhou Yu before flying away, and he looked at the map while searching for beasts with cultivation above the saint realm. He felt that the beast in the saint realm was no longer his opponent now because his strength had increased quite significantly after he absorbed the remaining power in the previous blood pool.
After the six female beasts, the followers of the Primordial Chaos Dragon moved to follow their master. Tian Yueling jumped onto Hu Yuan's back again, and he took her and Lang Zhi to follow them.
Zhou Yu then created void walls that surrounded almost the entire western region, and she also used something to create mist within, which obscured the view of people outside, so no one would be able to see them.
After seeing that, Long Jue took a deep breath, looking at Zhou Yu with admiration and fear at the same time. 'What a frightening woman! The member of the spirit race was indeed strong, even though her cultivation was still at the high saint god realm, and I didn't dare imagine her strength if he had already reached the supreme god realm.'
As she watched Ling Yun and them depart, Fei Yu gently patted her chest, exhaling a breath of relief. 'Even though my master only treats me as his contract beast, I really don't want him to die, let alone if he dies at the hands of a foreigner, which will make things complicated.'
Huan Xiong was also relieved because Ling Yun had no intention of killing Nan Xing, but Zhou Yu's abilities also left him deeply shocked. However, her beast suddenly went after them. "Hey, what are you going to do, Qian Lan? You shouldn't go after that guy."
"Don't need to worry; he won't do anything to me." Qian Lan replied as she flew towards Ling Yun, and Er Xiyi suddenly followed her, especially since both of them were curious to see his true abilities.
Fei Yu also wanted to follow the two female beasts, but Ling Xi continued to hug him. "Senior, please let me go now; I want to watch your husband practice."
"Are you interested in my husband?" Instead, Ling Xi asked teasingly as she glanced at Nan Xing. "Your master's character is bad, so you don't need to stay with him anymore. It would be better if you stayed with us, so you can be with our husband, and his yang qi will help you become stronger."
As soon as his contract beast turned to him, Nan Xing's face turned pale, and he was afraid that she would leave him for Ling Yun, but Fei Yu rejected Ling Xi while shaking her head. "I'm sorry, Senior. Even though his character is like that, I've been with him for a long time, and I won't leave him behind."
Ling Xi smiled faintly and didn't say anything else, and she released Fei Yu to catch up with the others, especially since she already knew her deep feelings for Nan Xing, which she believed would never change.
Nan Xing smiled in relief at Fei Yu's answer, but Ling Xi then said to him. "Hey, brat! That little girl is loyal to you, so you should treat her better. Otherwise, I will forcefully take her away from you and brainwash her into choosing my husband."
"He's right, Xing." Huan Xiong also spoke to him. "You are far inferior when compared to that man, but Fei Yu would rather stay with you, so you have to treat her better in the future."
"I know." Nan Xing replied with a nod. "I will definitely treat Fei Yu better."
Ling Xi then sent a voice transmission to everyone and asked them to stop practicing, and she asked them all to gather in one place, so it was easier for her and Zhou Yu to look after them.
After the two spirit women left, Long Jue and Huan Xiong took turns trying to lift Ling Yun's weapon, but they still couldn't lift it even an inch, even though their faces had become so red and their muscles seemed to be bulging out.
"How do you think he can lift this weapon?"
"I don't know for sure about that." Huan Xiong responded to Long Jue's question by shaking her head. "I guess he has been training with such heavy weights for a long time, and he is gradually increasing the weight little by little. Otherwise, he would experience the same difficulties as us if he started with this weapon."
"Anyway, wouldn't it be better if we went back now? We can explain to our higher-ups about their presence, so they don't need to come here."
"You're right." However, Huan Xiong then sighed softly. "Even so, I'm sure they won't listen to us, especially since our beasts followed Mo Chen, and Nan Xing remains confined like this."
Long Jue was also aware of that, but he truly did not want any enmity between members of his race and Ling Yun. "Regardless of whether they are willing to listen to us or not, we can at least try first, right? Moreover, if that guy also comes here, he will cause trouble with them, especially since he's much more arrogant than Nan Xing."
"Shut up!" Nan Xing suddenly shouted at Long Jue. "If I wasn't locked up like this, I would beat you up right now! Anyway, you two should go back and explain the situation to them, Xiong."
"You're right." Huan Xiong then flew away. "Let's go, Jue! We have to move fast, or they will get here before we get there."

Meanwhile, several demi-humans were riding their beasts in the air, and their destination was the western region, especially since Huan Xiong and Nan Xing had been gone for so long, but they still hadn't returned to take away the intruders they detected earlier.
"Do you think something happened to them, Huang Yin?" A male demi-human asked a female demi-human who looked like an eagle with a silver crown adorning her head.
Huang Yin continued to stare ahead while squinting her eyes, as if she were monitoring that direction with her sharp sense of sight. "I don't know for sure, Zi Zhe. Nan Xing and Huan Xiong are not weak, so they should have no difficulty capturing the two intruders. However, I still can't understand Long Jue's reason for letting those two people go, and I suspect that there might be strong people behind them who might be stronger than him, so he did that on purpose."
"Long Jue is smarter than Nan Xing, so I think he has a special reason for letting go of those two intruders." Another female demi-human, who looked similar to a squirrel sitting behind Huang Ying, also commented.
However, another demi-human, similar to Nan Xing, snorted at her. "Hey, Song Su! Don't you judge my brother unfairly? I know you're interested in Long Jue, but my brother is much better and more responsible than him. That brat is often irresponsible and neglects his duties, and he is now letting the intruders in, which made our higher-ups even more annoyed with him."
"Heh!" Song Su confronted him with a sneer. "You are his brother, Nan Ming. So you will defend him, but we all know which of them is better, and Long Jue is much better than him."
"You-"
"Stop it, you two." Huang Yin intervened them before they quarreled further. "They both have their own advantages and disadvantages, but they are equally useless in my eyes. Nan Xing gets emotional too easily, and he often acts irrationally. Long Jue is indeed smart, but he is a womanizer, and he also often makes wrong decisions due to the influence of those women."
"Are you still angry with Long Jue because he broke into your room that night? He even had-" Zi Zhe immediately swallowed back his words as a long black spear appeared in Huang Yin's hand, and he flew away from her, or else she would definitely beat him up because of his question just now.
"Haha!" Song Su laughed at Zi Zhe's behavior. "Hey! You better not bring that matter up anymore! Otherwise, big sister will skin you and roast you alive, and she will eat your meat!"
After hearing that, black lines appeared on Zi Zhe's forehead. "Hey! Su! Don't provoke her! If I die in her hands, it's your fault."
"I hate you, so it doesn't matter to me if you die." Song Su replied as she shrugged nonchalantly.
Zi Zhe wanted to curse Song Su, but Huang Yin suddenly spoke to them. "I couldn't detect those intruders, and Huan Xiong and Long Jue seemed to be on their way back, but I couldn't detect Nan Xing or their beasts."
