She unhesitatingly darted towards a large tree beside the road, leaving Su Chen alone to stand in the middle of the path, where a horde of wild animals trampled past in chaos, whipping up a swirling storm of flying sand and rocks!
Roars of rage, cries of anguish, and the sound of iron hooves intertwined, completely covering the girl’s vision...
With his blood-soaked hands, Su Chen clung tightly to the neck of an antelope underneath him, pressing his whole body against its bony back, running with the herd towards the summit of Jade Emperor Peak.
In the chaos, he seized the opportunity to leap onto the back of the antelope, narrowly saving his life. But with injuries and the intense jolts, he felt unbearably uncomfortable as if about to cough up blood. Looking back, he saw the forest where the girl was gradually fading from view, the footsteps of the beasts chaotic and yet their ranks strangely orderly, as if rehearsed. The entire mountain seemed filled only with the thunderous sound of their iron hooves, endlessly booming...
Who was it that blew the Zodiac Flute, drawing these beasts here, desperately rushing to the top of Jade Emperor Peak?
Su Chen lay on the back of the antelope, watching the beasts running non-stop on either side, his mind whirling with this doubt...
As the herd galloped, dust and rocks flew, the sound of iron hooves echoing throughout the Jade Emperor Peak.
Finally, Su Chen opened his eyes, seeing a scene full of light.
Though it was already dusk, the beautiful sunset, reddening half the sky, made the scene even more picturesque. The cool mountain wind hit his face, blowing away the weariness accumulated along the journey.
This is the summit of Jade Emperor Peak, the very top!
Su Chen lay on the back of the antelope, looking up ahead, where on the expansive ground a group of blood-stained young men and women were confronting each other!
His mind exploded with a roar, and his vision suddenly became incredibly clear!
He suddenly saw, surrounded by several unfamiliar men, was Siger Meiruo and Kingston!
But the distance was far, too far, and the beasts were agitated, their hooves beating, roars unending, and his voice was instantly drowned...
Su Chen was so anxious to jump off the antelope, but when he exerted a little effort, a sharp pain shot through his palm, and blood once again stained the ground. He gritted his teeth, using his legs to clamp the antelope’s belly, slowly moving down. He reasoned that those unfamiliar men must be the accomplices of the two people from before!

Elsewhere, although Siger Meiruo and Kingston were both wounded, they continued to protect everyone in front of them, knowing full well the terrifying strength of the three men before them.
"Give up resisting, and perhaps I might spare your life."
The leader, a tall man with a handsome appearance and brawny physique, couldn’t hide the greed in his eyes towards Siger Meiruo and Xige Zhuxue.
Such beautiful women, he hadn’t encountered in many years. Although the current situation was not optimistic, he believed that with the combined strength of the three brothers, they could capture these two stunning beauties. Then this special training journey wouldn’t be so lonely.
As he imagined, a wicked smile appeared on his lips, "What’s your decision, to resist till death, or surrender?"
"You despicable scoundrel, don’t think you’ll take even an inch of advantage from me!"
Siger Meiruo spat out, her pretty face slightly red, her delicate body trembling slightly.
"Heh heh, since you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit, I’ll not be polite!"
As soon as he finished, he turned into a black lightning bolt, darting towards Siger Meiruo.
With a grab and a clutch, his right claw, agile as a snake, slid from Siger Meiruo’s fragrant shoulder up to her tender neck. Siger Meiruo’s speed was far less than his, without enough time to use her skills, she could only retreat defensively, soon falling into a disadvantage.
The rest, aside from Little Moustache and Xige Zhuxue, were all heavily injured.
Xige Zhuxue gave a delicate snort and joined in, standing shoulder to shoulder with Siger Meiruo, battling fiercely with the man. The three silhouettes flashed back and forth on the open ground, elemental flames dazzling and flashing, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"What’s going on, the beasts have arrived, why aren’t they attacking these scoundrels?"
Kingston had a gash on his left shoulder too, with his left arm hanging limply as if it had been broken. His right hand held an emerald green long flute, crafted from jade, glowing beautifully, with three round holes on its body.
"Brother, could it be that it needs an attack command? Simply summoning might not work," a young man lying on the ground asked painfully.
Kingston’s brow furrowed deeply, looking at the first round hole, hesitating intensely in his heart.
He had only heard that playing the first round hole would summon a large number of beasts to assist, but didn’t know how to control them to attack the enemy. Was his understanding of the Zodiac Flute wrong?
Seeing Siger Meiruo and the others in danger, and the other two formidable men closing in step by step, he finally couldn’t contain his inner anger and panic, pressing the first two round holes on the Zodiac Flute and blowing it!
A loud long singing sounded, the Zodiac Flute played, as if suddenly slicing through the sky, revealing a bolt of lightning! The beasts seemed to be stimulated by something, all panic-stricken, wailing chaotically!
Su Chen was almost gored by the antelope’s horns, hurriedly kicking off the ground, leaping into the air. He looked down at the herd stepping away, all running down the mountain, frowning tightly.
Kingston, holding the Zodiac Flute, looked at the top of the Jade Emperor Peak’s cliff at the suddenly rising giant black snake, completely stunned!
