The remaining men quickly fled on their swords.

The desperate cries for help from Zhou Jie and Song Xin'er echoed through the sky, but the men seemed oblivious, only concerned with scattering and fleeing for their lives.

Previously, a third-tier demonic beast had almost wiped out their entire team, so how could they dare to provoke a fourth-tier one?

Bai Lu had already suppressed her previous overflowing sympathy and said fiercely, "Ancestral Beast, we cannot let them go, otherwise if we let them leave alive, they will bring more people to slaughter us!"

"Roar!" The ancestral beast roared in response, its wings flapping rapidly, shooting out dozens of iron feathers.

Iron feathers fell from the sky like deadly arrows!

The men who fled on their swords, as well as those who had just struggled to emerge from the deep pool, were riddled with arrows.

Before the men could react, their consciousness and dantian were pierced by the arrow, turning them into gruesome corpses.

Zhou Jie and Song Xin'er's eyes widened at the sight, and they both looked at Bai Lu in the other iron claw.

They then realized that Bailu had not been captured by the monster like them.

The bird claws gripping them were as strong as steel, squeezing them so tightly they were almost suffocating.

The bird's claw that had been holding Bailu now loosely clenched, forming a safe nest-like shape.

Bai Lu was comfortably curled up in the "nest" formed by the bird's claws, her face covered in blood as she watched them with a vicious smile.

“You…this monster…” Zhou Jie and Song Xin’er were so shocked they couldn’t speak.

They couldn't believe that a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator would have a fourth-tier demon beast as a spirit pet!

Even if you told this to anyone else, let alone them, no one would believe it.

A cultivator's cultivation level must be higher than that of their spirit pet, otherwise they are likely to be devoured by the spirit pet. This is an ironclad rule in the cultivation world!

"What's wrong? Are you surprised?" Bai Lu took out spirit stones from the storage space on her earring to replenish her strength and struggled to stop the bleeding from her wounds. At the same time, she sneered at Zhou Jie and Song Xin'er, the two vicious women: "When you were coveting the spirit stones on me, did you ever think about where I got so many spirit stones? If you kill me, can you bear the consequences?!"

“But you said you, you’re not from some big family…” Zhou Jie was so frightened that she stammered.

"You lied to us!" Song Xin'er was almost hysterical: "You clearly said that you were just a bandit!"

"So you all think that I got all these spirit stones by robbery? Yes, even if I did get all these spirit stones by robbery, who do you think I could rob with my cultivation level?" Bai Lu was filled with hatred, but also felt extremely satisfied.

After this brush with death, she finally understood.

She vowed that no matter what happens in the future, she would never again be a pushover or a hypocrite.

Apart from her princess and her former brothers and sisters, she will not trust anyone else from now on!

She has to be even more ruthless than these villains!

Zhou Jie and Song Xin'er then realized:

Yes, if she were a bandit, with her cultivation level, who could she have robbed so many spirit stones from?

These spirit stones prove that she is not alone; there are many more powerful bandits behind her.

But how could they... how could they believe her and dare to attack a bandit?!

Zhou Jie and Song Xin'er were truly on the verge of tears, not daring to even beg for mercy, after all, they had just almost killed Bai Lu!

"I, Bai Lu, have never taken a life. Congratulations to my two sisters for becoming my first and second victims." A sinister smile appeared on Bai Lu's face, which was no longer beautiful but was covered in blood and gore.
