At the same time, within the Star Feather Tribe, Her Highness the Princess was listening to reports from her subordinates.

"How could this be possible? With the Hua Hun Clan's current momentum, how could they possibly retreat for no reason? Could this be the enemy's conspiracy?"

Her Majesty the Queen pondered for a while and felt that it was very likely a tactic conceived by Yan Tianguan after being unable to overcome their defenses for a long time, and she certainly would not be fooled.

Thus, she ordered all soldiers to be ready for defense.

Recalling the battles with the Hua Hun Clan in recent days still sent shivers down her spine.

Fortunately, successive Clan Leaders of the Xingyu Clan had implemented various defensive fortifications both inside and outside the Star Feather Tribe, making it require a tremendous cost for the Hua Hun Clan to breach them.

But even with such strong defenses, the Star Feather Tribe still suffered heavy losses under the frenzied attacks of the Hua Hun Clan.

Thinking back to the previous fierce battles, Her Highness the Princess still felt lingering fear.

"What exactly does the Hua Hun Clan intend to conspire? Are they planning to ambush our reinforcements?"

Her Highness the Princess sent a distress signal to other Xingyu Clan Members, and over these days, many clan members have entered the Star Feather Tribe to help resist the attacks of the Hua Hun Clan.

The battle before was incredibly fierce, and Her Highness the Princess thought they were close to defeat, but unexpectedly, at the most critical moment, the Hua Hun Clan withdrew.

After pondering for a while, she quickly sent people to strengthen the defenses of the Star Feather Tribe.

On the other hand, she also dispatched some of the Star Feather Clan Members who were adept at flying to observe every move of the Hua Hun Clan.

Two days later, Duan Gujin and Tie Yi, who were following behind the Hua Hun Clan, discovered a large group of strange monsters appearing in front of the Hua Hun Clan.

There were a great many of these monsters, each pitch-black like ink, closely resembling black panthers with a pair of weird blood-red eyes.

"What is that?" Tie Yi gazed at the black panthers, completely baffled.

"Weren't your Xingyu Clan living all along here on the Fire Cloud Continent? How could you not know what these are?"

Duan Gujin's mind raced as he tried to figure out what kind of Demon Beast the black panthers he was seeing might be.

But after thinking for a good while, he couldn't recall anything.

"These are Demon Beasts I've never seen before!"

Duan Gujin's eyes widened as he tried to get a clear view of the vast swarm of Demon Beasts.

Moments later, they saw the Hua Hun Clan engaging with the large group of Demon Beasts.

Duan Gujin saw those Demon Beasts open their bloody mouths wide and directly tear into the bodies of the Hua Hun Clan Members.

At first, Duan Gujin thought that the Hua Hun Clan people could repel these Demon Beasts.

But to his surprise, he watched in shaking disbelief as the Demon Beasts could bite off half the body of a Hua Hun Clan Member in one bite, as if their bodies were made of paper, utterly defenseless.

"Such terrifying Demon Beasts!"

Duan Gujin inhaled sharply, not expecting those Demon Beasts to be so overwhelmingly powerful, instantly shattering the battle lines formed by the Hua Hun Clan.

He made a rough estimate, approximately ten Hua Hun Clan Members for one Demon Beast.

What sent chills down his spine the most was seeing a densely packed army of Demon Beasts appearing in the valley ahead.

He extended his Divine Sense and roughly estimated at least tens of thousands of Demon Beasts amassing in the valley ahead.

"Good heavens! Where did these Demon Beasts come from?"

Duan Gujin quickly used a transmission to ask Tie Yi if she knew the origin of those Demon Beasts.

Tie Yi's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and after pondering for a good while, she finally shook her head and said, "I really have never heard of such Demon Beasts appearing here before!"

Never heard of it before?

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered as he extended his Divine Sense outward, eager to discern the Demons' next move.

Half an hour later, he saw a swath of Demons ahead engulfing the Hua Hun Clan's vast army.

"Tie Yi, I have a bad feeling about this. Tell me, what do you think will happen if those Demon Beasts charge into the Xingyu Clan Tribe?"

Duan Gujin spoke with a grave expression.

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Tie Yi took a sharp breath.

Indeed, she had just seen, along with Duan Gujin, those Demon Beasts easily conquer a large group of Hua Hun Clan Members.

Even without much thought, she knew if they let that massive horde of Demon Beasts face off against the Xingyu Clan Members, countless Xingyu would die.

Despite the Xingyu having wings and the ability to ascend into the skies to escape the onslaught of Demon Beasts,

the Xingyu could avoid them temporarily; they couldn't be lucky enough to evade these Demon Beasts forever.

Moreover, those Demon Beasts could spit roaring flames, using fire to burn their enemies.

Once those Demon Beasts truly invaded the Xingyu Clan Tribe, the tribe would be thoroughly conquered.

Even though Xingyu Clan Members can fly in the sky, they always need a place where they can cultivate in peace.

Should the Xingyu Clan Tribe fall to that swarm of Demon Beasts, they might evade temporarily, but they can't spend their entire lives dodging those Demons in the sky.

If the Xingyu don't have a safe place to cultivate, their overall strength would diminish day by day, and in the future, they might face annihilation.

The thought of such terrible consequences made Tie Yi shiver.

"Where on earth did these Demon Beasts come from?"

This doubt flickered through Tie Yi's mind. Her eyes flashed before she said to Duan Gujin, "Master, should we tell the Xingyu Clan Members about these terrifying Demon Beasts to prepare them?"

"Indeed! Tie Yi, put on a disguise mask and slightly change your appearance. Then, pretending to be a traveler, fly to our Xingyu comrades and inform them you've spotted a completely new type of terrifying Demon Beast. Afterwards, bring those Xingyu here so they can see for themselves."

Duan Gujin instructed.

"Okay!"

Tie Yi nodded vigorously, racking her brains for a moment before feeling that Duan Gujin's suggestion was excellent.

Duan Gujin immediately took a specially crafted human skin mask from his storage ring and had Tie Yi wear it. He then adjusted the mask for her.

Once it was set, he sent Tie Yi on her way.

Tie Yi unfurled a pair of white wings and took to the skies with powerful flaps.

An hour later, Duan Gujin saw Tie Yi leading a large group of Xingyu Clan Members through the high skies.

"Just in time!"

Duan Gujin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the large group of Xingyu in the sky could certainly see the vast Demon Beast horde on the ground.

As he had suspected, the group of Xingyu Clan Members brought by Tie Yi were shocked upon seeing the dense Demon Beast army below, frantically consulting each other to identify them.

After a while of questioning among themselves, they realized that none recognized those Demon Beasts.

Tie Yi quickly informed the Xingyu Clan Members about the fearful capabilities of the Demons, urging them to prepare.

Although the Xingyu Clan Members had previously heard from Tie Yi that the Demon Beasts were extremely powerful, since they hadn't witnessed it themselves, they thought she was probably exaggerating.

Only after they laid eyes on the Demon Beasts did they realize the gravity of the situation.

When they heard Tie Yi claim she saw the large group of Demon Beasts capable of sacrificing ten of their number to take down a Hua Hun Clan Member, they instantly recognized the severity of the situation.
