Fang Yuan hadn't expected that this walk would take a whole day.
"Why is the outer perimeter so far?" She was speechless.
We were already on the outskirts, but it took us a whole day to walk around.
"Don't be afraid, we'll be there soon," Jiang Cheng comforted him.
This is the territory of the King Beast, which can detect foreign presences within its territory.
Therefore, they cannot release their spirit beasts and must rely entirely on walking.
Fortunately, after traveling for so long, they have successfully arrived at the King Beast's lair.
A sharp cry of an eagle echoed through the sky.
Everyone quickly looked up as a giant eagle flew overhead, its wings, which blotted out the sky, were larger than the small aircraft they were riding in.
"Oh no, that eagle king is coming! Everyone take cover!" Jiang Cheng frowned and turned to give the order.
The two king beast eggs that Fang Yuan brought back a few days ago belonged to this eagle king. He was afraid that this guy had discovered the scent of the cubs on them and came looking for them.
"Could it have smelled its own offspring? I should have known better than to touch that egg in the first place," Wu Yu said, glancing at his hand.
He took an eagle egg when he went into the house with Jiang Cheng earlier.
He also wondered if he had revealed the scent of his cubs, which led the mother eagle to come looking for him.
"What I was cultivating before was its egg?" Fang Yuan asked softly after glancing outside.
“Yes, this place is quite a distance from its territory. I didn’t expect it to come looking for us. I’m sorry, we miscalculated this time,” Jiang Cheng replied.
They had thought they had it in the bag this time, but unexpectedly the eagle caught up with them.
Facing two king beasts, both of which are wind-type, even if they had two king beasts of their own, it would be difficult for them to escape unscathed.
This mission may fail, but they must protect Fang Yuan, their future mentor.
"Boss, maybe this guy is here to hunt for prey," a teammate asked reluctantly.
We've come this far; it would be such a waste to give up now.
“No, king beasts usually hunt in their own territory. This is another king beast's territory, and we’re already close to that king beast’s den. This is a provocation.” Jiang Cheng shook his head.
This guy must be here to cause trouble.
After listening to what the others said, Fang Yuan asked the system to investigate the eagle's activity range.
[Host, it's not coming for you, it's going for that big hole down below.]
"real?"
Upon hearing this discovery, Fang Yuan's eyes lit up. After thinking for a moment, he pointed in a direction and said to Jiang Cheng:
"Senior Brother Jiang, I don't think this guy is looking for us. Didn't you guys notice that it circled around once and then headed that way?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng also looked at the sky and said, "It seems that it really is. That's the cave of that king beast ahead. It definitely wasn't coming for us."
Wu Yu looked around, then his face lit up with joy: "It's true, we might have come to the right place this time."
A battle between two kings is bound to result in mutual destruction, and it seems they came to the right place this time.
"It looks like the female wolf queen is about to give birth," Jiang Cheng replied.
Jiang Cheng looked at the sky, then at the huge cave not far ahead.
The beast that was about to give birth was probably more worried than they were.
"Aww~~~"
A loud wolf howl followed.
A giant, snow-white wolf emerged from within and warned the giant eagle in the sky.
The wolf's enormous belly rose and fell, indicating that it was indeed about to give birth.
"Everyone stay hidden and let them engage first, then we'll pick off the rest!" Jiang Cheng shouted quickly in a low voice.
At the same time, he took out a scent-concealing spray and sprayed it on Fang Yuan, then quickly pulled Fang Yuan behind him.
"yes!"
The two teams behind them quickly hid to the sides, simultaneously spraying themselves with concealing spray.
"What's going on? Is the Eagle King planning to find the Wolf King? Do they have a grudge?" Fang Yuan asked, puzzled.
“Last time we let this wolf king run into the eagle king’s territory, lured the eagle king away, and stole its cubs,” Jiang Cheng replied.
Their visit that time was also an accident, caused by a series of coincidences.
"So this guy's own pups were stolen, and since he can't find you, he's taking his anger out on this mother wolf queen?"
The spirit beasts in this world seem to have exceptionally high intelligence.
And he holds grudges!
"I think so!" Jiang Cheng nodded at him.
"Weren't they supposed to be injured? These two don't look injured at all," Fang Yuan asked again.
These two beasts don't look injured at all.
Moreover, both of them are as big as elephants, and not much smaller than the mythical beasts from the era of the two suns. They look very majestic.
“Spirit beasts are very intelligent; they can disguise themselves, or they might have eaten some rare and precious herbs,” Jiang Cheng said.
However, he was very clear about the injuries these two suffered last time. Perhaps there were some rare and precious herbs in the mountains that helped them recover?
As Jiang Cheng finished speaking, the two king beasts began to fight.
A blade of wind slammed down from the eagle king's wing in the sky.
The wolf king below also drifted to the side, quickly dodging the wind blade.
"Are they all wind-type?" Fang Yuan asked in surprise.
The mother wolf king was so fast, it looked like she was teleporting.
“Yes, otherwise how could the Wolf King restrain the Flying Eagle King?” Jiang Cheng nodded.
"Let's wait for them to fight, then we'll take a break." Wu Yu took out a bottle of water and took a sip.
Now that he doesn't need to stir up hatred, he's happy to relax.
"If this fight continues, it will be difficult for the wolf king to give birth," Fang Yuan said, looking at the snow-white wolf king.
She really likes fluffy things. She already has a white fox, so having a white wolf king would be nice too.
But if the energy is depleted, will it still be able to produce offspring?
Spiritual beasts understand human nature, unlike wild beasts that want to kill everyone they see, so it's a pity if they die.
"It's a gamble. Wolf cubs usually have multiple births. I don't know if the wolf king will be able to give birth. If it does, then it'll all depend on you, junior," Jiang Cheng replied.
They brought Fang Yuan here so that she could guarantee the wolf cubs' survival.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have insisted on having her come along.
It's rare for them to encounter a freshman who can breed animals, and the key is that this wolf king just happened to be giving birth, so they had to seize this opportunity.
"Yes, as long as he's still alive, I should be able to save him." Fang Yuan nodded.
Then they watched as the two royal beasts launched a 'magic' attack.
But as time went on, the wolf king was defeated of the two beasts who had been evenly matched.
He was hit by several wind blades.
"It's about to give birth, can't we help it?" Fang Yuan said worriedly.
You want someone else's cub, and then you watch it get beaten to death?
Jiang Cheng and Wu Yu exchanged a glance; they also realized that the Wolf King was seriously injured and exhausted.
It wanted to retreat back into its den to give birth, but the eagle king wouldn't give it the chance.
They continuously blocked its retreat with wind blades.
"唳~~"
The eagle's cry rang out again; it was about to strike with its sharp talons.
"Awooo~" Another wolf howl rang out.
A giant silver wolf appeared not far in front of where Fang Yuan and the others were hiding.
The giant wolf saw the white wolf king in front of it and the eagle king attacking from the sky.
They rushed forward quickly without needing anyone to direct them.
Several gusts of wind swept towards the king eagle.
"唳~~"
The Eagle King was injured in one wing by a wind blade.
After flying at an angle for a while, it rose a little higher.
The silver giant wolf gave chase without hesitation, pursuing it for a long distance.
"Is this wolf Senior Brother's? Why is it so actively chasing the enemy?" Fang Yuan looked at Jiang Cheng curiously.
They know who to contact without even needing to be told?
Jiangcheng was somewhat embarrassed:
"This guy has always liked to run away since he became a king beast. He's been locked up for too long lately, so he can't help but want to move around."
Wu Yu laughed when he heard this: "Huh? Little Jiang, how can you lie to your junior? Let me tell you why, that mother wolf's cub is his, you lecherous wolf's."
