The red-eyed snow lion seemed not to understand why Rong Zi was angry, and tilted its head, humming softly twice.
Xu Chi very conscientiously translated its meaning for Rong Zi.
"It says it's not kidding you."
Upon hearing this, Rong Zi almost rolled her eyes. She pointed at the red-eyed snow lion and said speechlessly, "You yourself said that the divine beast is inside the stone gate. Since it's inside, where am I supposed to get the blood of the divine beast?"
The red-eyed snow lion blinked and shook its head, looking completely bewildered.
Xu Chi: "It said it didn't know either."
Rong Zi: "..."
Who on earth was this idiot who hired this guy?
Rong Zi casually found a rock to sit on, then rested her chin on her hand, looking at the stone door in front of her with some worry.
Like her, all the demonic beasts present had their eyes on the stone gate.
Noticing this, Rong Zi pointed at them with a puzzled expression and looked up at the red-eyed snow lion, asking, "I forgot to ask, what are they all doing gathered here?"
From the moment they appeared here until now, these monsters have not shown much reaction.
They simply stood quietly, their gazes reverently fixed on the direction of the stone gate, as if waiting for something.
The red-eyed snow lion responded with a low growl.
Xu Chi translated, “It said that the reason these monsters gathered here was to prepare to welcome their divine beast, because the divine beast had told them that it would appear to them today, and that it looked just as majestic and imposing as this stone sculpture.”
After listening, Rong Zi pondered for a moment and then tried asking a question.
"Hey, have you guys seen that 'divine beast'?"
The red-eyed snow lion shook its head.
Rong Zi: ...As expected.
They've never even met, and they're already so obedient?
These monsters are quite naive...
Just as Rong Zi and the red-eyed snow lion were staring at each other, Cai Niu suddenly climbed out of the Hongmeng Ring in a great hurry, stood on her shoulder, and tugged at her, shouting, "Master, you have to go see Egg Boss! Egg Boss, he..."
Before Cai Niu could finish speaking, the monsters that had been quiet all along suddenly became agitated and charged towards them in unison, shouting as they did so.
Thousands upon thousands of monsters began to run.
That spectacle...
It's comparable to a monster disaster movie.
Cai Niu was stunned for a moment upon seeing this, and the words she was about to say stuck in her throat.
Not only Cai Niu, but Rong Zi and Yun Jing were also caught off guard by this sudden change and reflexively assumed defensive postures.
I thought these monsters were going to attack.
Unexpectedly, after they rushed over, they immediately slid down to their knees and prostrated themselves before Rong Zi, bowing their heads.
That posture looked as if they were kneeling in worship.
Even the red-eyed snow lion in front of Rong Zi knelt down.
Rong Zi was a little dazed as she watched this scene.
"What does this mean?"
Xu Chi used magic to read the thoughts of these demonic beasts, then turned to Rong Zi and said, "They are kneeling before a divine beast."
"A mythical beast?" Rong Zi looked around. "Where?"
Why didn't she see the mythical beast?
Xu Chi hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand and pointed to Cai Niu on Rong Zi's shoulder.
"They seem to... regard Cai Niu as a divine beast."
Hearing Xu Chi's words, Rong Zi and the other disciples all turned their attention to Cai Niu.
They glanced at Cai Niu, then at the two stone sculptures not far away that were almost identical to Cai Niu, and their eyes lit up instantly.
Rong Zi slapped his thigh and grabbed Cai Niu, pulling her in front of him.
"How come I didn't think of that?"
She grabbed Cai Niu and gestured towards the two stone sculptures, "Aren't these mythical beasts? Look how similar they are!"
Cai Niu was still a bit confused, her head was spinning.
However, when it saw the two stone sculptures, it froze, its eyes wide with a daze.
Rong Zi grabbed one of Cai Niu's little paws and waved at Gu Xiaochui.
"Quick! Get a knife, bleed him out!"
Before Cai Niu could even react, Gu Xiaochui had already handed her the knife.
Seeing that Rong Zi was about to strike, Xu Chi felt a pang of pity and stepped forward, saying, "Although Cai Niu does look very similar to these two stone sculptures, it is not a real divine beast after all. Will its blood be of any use?"
Rong Zi: "Let's give it a try. If it doesn't work, we'll think of other ways."
As he spoke, Rong Zi gripped the knife, ready to strike.
Seeing the gleaming blade, Cai Niu finally reacted with a "whoosh" and began to desperately dodge, flapping her four legs.
While dodging, it stretched out its neck and howled.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Waaaaaah, killing a turtle!"
Rong Zi's head was throbbing from its howling, and he was about to give it a flick on the forehead to make it behave when he suddenly felt a strange sense of danger behind him.
Immediately afterwards, she heard Ling Mo's slightly anxious voice.
"Master, be careful!"
When Rong Zi turned around, she saw Ling Mo shielding her from an attack by a demonic beast behind her.
The attack targeted a level 5 monster.
However, this level-five demonic beast's strength is at least comparable to that of a human cultivator in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
Although Ling Mo was exceptionally strong, he was still only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Against this demonic beast, he was clearly at a disadvantage in terms of strength. He was forced to retreat several steps by the beast's attacks, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his lips.
This turn of events happened so fast that Yun Jing and the others didn't even have time to react.
Upon seeing Ling Mo injured, they all exclaimed in surprise.
"Third Junior Brother!"
"Third Senior Brother!"
Everyone rushed to Ling Mo's side, quickly drawing their weapons in preparation for fighting alongside him.
