emon fish moved in and out among them, showing no signs of disturbance. Their actions were extremely secretive; if it weren't for these four troublemakers or Lu Xiaoteng, I'm afraid it would be diffic...Lu Xia tian's brow furrowed. He didn't expect these people to go back on their word so quickly, but he wasn't completely unprepared either. The one who looked like the leader that he had captured before was injured by him. Even though his physique was more robust and his recovery ability was stronger than Yu Dongbao and the others, it would still take at least half a day.

Besides the man he had killed, everyone else was led by Tuoba Hong, who had first spoken to him about exchanging hostages. As long as there weren't too many opponents of this level, he could leave, and these people couldn't stop him. However, these people were skilled in group combat tactics, appearing to cooperate seamlessly. The combat power they exerted was not something that could be simply measured by their individual strength. If it truly came to a melee, I estimate that Yu Dongbao and Huo Ying would only be able to rely on their own luck.

The reason I saved them just now is twofold. On one hand, I wanted to use the two of them to fight against these strange people later on. After all, since I learned that there might be an elixir fruit here, Lu Xia Tian wouldn't leave easily. And these two also know some information about the elixir fruit. It's still worth a try to keep them safe.

Lu Xiaoxian turned around, a flash of killing intent in his eyes. Just as he was about to make a move, he discovered that these strange people didn't seem to be here to fight him. They directly jumped off their spirit beasts and surrounded Lu Xiaoxian and his group, no, more accurately, they surrounded Di Kun. They knelt on one knee, their right hands across their chests, their faces filled with excitement, muttering titles that Lu Xiaoxian and the others couldn't understand.

Di Kun let out a low growl, but his eyes were filled with surprise as he looked at Lu Xia Tian, inquiring whether he should fight or not.

Lu Xiaotian was still undecided when a black shadow flashed past. The little fire crow flapped its wings furiously, pointing at these strange people and squawking incessantly. Although Lu Xiaotian didn't understand, he could guess that the little fire crow meant to take action. However, instead of moving himself, he commanded Di Kun. To Lu Xiaotian's surprise, although Di Kun showed an impatient expression, he no longer reacted as strongly as before. He even let the little fire crow perch on his back.

Not only Lu Xiaottian, Shao Zixia, or even those eccentrics, all had a sense of confusion in their minds. Such a powerful spirit beast like Di Kun, would it actually allow this rather irritable little fire raven to perch on its back

"What do you mean" Lu Xia Tian asked Tuo Ba Hong, who had spoken to him before. He originally thought these strange people were going to make trouble again, but now it seemed they weren't. Their attention was all on Di Kun. They looked excited and reverent, he didn't know why.

“Dragon Lion, it is the sacred beast of our Giant Stone Clan. The sacred beasts have disappeared from our Giant Stone Clan for thousands of years. I wonder, what is your relation with Dragon Lion” Tuoba Hong asked Lu Xia Tian excitedly.

"Dragon-Lion" Lu Xia Tian looked at Di Kun in surprise, unsure if the other was mistaken. However, since he was revered as a holy beast, and seeing the group's respectful expressions towards Di Kun, it probably wasn't a lie. He just didn't expect Di Kun to have such a title as Dragon-Lion.

"It's my spirit beast, and it has little to do with your sacred beasts. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first." Lu Xiaoteng reacted and coldly glanced at Tuoba Hong, realizing the precariousness of his situation. Since it was their sacred beast, and now discovered by the other party, they might later try to claim it as their own. Dikun had grown into an indispensable part of his combat power over time, helping him through many perilous situations. With Dikun's potential, even becoming a tenth-order spirit beast was entirely possible. Lu Xiaoteng was unwilling to give up such a powerful spirit beast.

When they heard that the dragon and lion were the spirit beasts of this alien, Tuoba Hong translated Lu Xiaoteng's words to his own people. The remaining dozen or so strange men with only animal skins around their waists all roared loudly, and their eyes looked at Lu Xiaoteng unfavorably. However, when Di Kun angrily roared back, these people retreated timidly, not wanting to be enemies with Di Kun.

"Let's go!" Lu Xia Tian felt a sense of foreboding in his heart. After all, his spirit beast had been targeted, and it was natural for him to feel uneasy.

“Hold on!” Tuobahong was taken aback and quickly spoke to detain him.

In this situation, Lu Xia Tian wouldn't stay. He took out the Huo Jiao bow and arrow expressionlessly, glared at Tuo Ba Hong and the others, then leaped into the air and floated away.

When Tuo Batian was about to make a move, Lu Xiaoteng drew his bow and nocked an arrow. Tuo Batian suddenly felt like he was being stared down by a beast, just like when he was young and hunting with his tribe, being watched by those deadly beasts. His scalp tingled, his movements froze, and the other tribesmen who wanted to follow suit were stopped by Tuo Batian's hurried reprimand. Even he had this feeling, and Tuo Baihai was directly captured in a single confrontation. Under the circumstances where they had already provoked the enemy, forcing their way forward would only lead to unnecessary casualties.

Although other tribesmen were held back by Tuoba Hong, they were still very excited and unwilling to let Lu Xia Tian leave like this.

Tuoba Honggudong said a few words, then with a solemn expression, he took out a colorful conch shell. The conch was as tall as a man. Tuoba Hong held the conch to his mouth and blew it with all his might.

“Ooh,” a mournful and distant sound came from the conch shell. Lu XiaTian, who was already dozens of miles away, heard the sound of the conch and his face changed slightly. Even if he were dim-witted, he could guess that these strange people were calling for reinforcements.

“Hurry up!” Lu Xia Tian glanced at Yu Dongbao and the others.

"Brother Lu, please rest assured. I, Huo Ying, owe my life to you. Even if these fiends come back, I'll fight them tooth and nail at that time." Huo Ying said with a fierce expression.

"Since you, young friend, can subdue the dragon and lion as spirit beasts, capable of things beyond ordinary people, my clan of giants is most hospitable, especially to a cultivator like you with limitless potential. Why would you rush off"

After Lu Xia Tian and the others had run for over a hundred miles, a voice that sounded ancient and faraway suddenly rang out.

Lu Xiaitian and his companions' faces changed drastically. They had finally managed to run this far, but they were still blocked by the other party's people. Although this person spoke, Lu Xiaitian couldn't sense their location at all. Lu Xiaitian was confident that no Jindan cultivator could make him unable to detect their position after taking the initiative to attack. The only explanation was that the other party had surpassed the level of Jindan cultivators and reached the Yuanying stage. For this kind of expert, Lu Xiaitian could only wryly smile. Faced with such a person, even he had no power to protect himself.

“I’m not yet sure whether your clan is friend or foe, so I dare not stay long.” Lu Xia Tian forcefully suppressed the shock in his heart and feigned calmness.

As for Huo Ying, Yu Dongbao and Shao Zixia looked at each other in astonishment. The development of events had far exceeded their expectations, and the three could only let the situation unfold.r situation was undoubtedly much better.Please note that I cannot translate content within HTML tags.
