In the tranquil mountains, where the greenery rolled like waves and the forests were dense, various ferocious beasts paced along, casting giant shadows on the ground as the birds of prey stretched their wings above the heavens.
The place seemed as if it was straight out of the wilderness era, ancient and remote.
Suddenly, the void trembled, followed by the appearance of a massive fissure from which fifteen figures flew out, each one of them exuding an extraordinary aura.
"Is this Central State outside of the Holy Palace?"
Xiao Ye, flying out with Wu Pojun and others, curiously surveyed his surroundings, his face filled with excitement, completely stunned by the scene before him.
This scene was almost identical to what he had seen during his soul travel in Central State; the landscape was much more spectacular and majestic than in the Four Great States, and the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was also incredibly dense.
Not to mention anything else, just the mountain range he was currently in was a treasure land.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Xiao Ye’s gaze sharpened, falling on the distant large ferocious beasts. He let out a sharp intake of breath.
He could see that these beasts were all from the King Martial Realm, yet they showed a fearful demeanor towards them.
It was quite strange that so many King Martial Realm beasts were afraid of disciples from the same realm.
"Hmph, bumpkins. These King Martial ferocious beasts are bred by our Holy Palace to guard the gate. We’re Holy Palace Disciples and carry the aura of the Holy Palace. Not to mention they are merely King Martial Realm beasts, even the Emperor Martial Realm beasts would be scared when they see us."
Seeing Xiao Ye staring dumbfounded, Wu Pojun couldn’t help but laugh scornfully.
"I see." Xiao Ye ignored Wu Pojun’s mocking, his mind moved, and he looked down at Little White held in his arms.
With Little White’s current strength and unique talents, he should be able to control these King Martial Realm ferocious beasts.
Hiding in Xiao Ye’s arms, Little White, sensing Xiao Ye’s thoughts, let out a cry, instantly releasing a dreadful King Beast’s aura.
This kind of aura could only be sensed by ferocious beasts; Wu Pojun and the others were completely unaware.
At that moment, the bodies of those ferocious beasts trembled, and one by one, they knelt down in the direction of Xiao Ye, a mix of fear and panic in their eyes.
"Just as I thought!" Xiao Ye became excited in his heart.
Having Little White was like having an army of ferocious beasts at his disposal. Just the thought of controlling an army of King Martial Realm beasts thrilled Xiao Ye immensely.
Just as Wu Pojun and others found the sudden reaction of these beasts strange, the hidden Little White in Xiao Ye’s arms cried out once again.
The beasts lying on the ground, as if receiving an order, their crimson eyes simultaneously turned towards Wu Pojun and the others, then they rose and pounced towards them, their massive bodies looming like a small hill rushing over.
"Holy crap, have these beasts gone mad today?"
"Good heavens, they’re all coming!"
Wu Pojun and the thirteen disciples’ faces changed simultaneously, extremely pale, hurriedly accelerating to their peak, shooting outwards.
Although they too were at the King Martial Realm in cultivation, they would most certainly face unpredictable life or death situations if attacked by so many King Martial Realm ferocious beasts.
Only Xiao Ye stayed in place; when these ferocious beasts encountered him, they would automatically steer clear out of deference and not dare to offend him, then they would turn to chase after Wu Pojun and his group.
"Little White, you rascal."
Watching the mischievous Little White, Xiao Ye could only smile bitterly with helplessness.
However, seeing Wu Pojun and the others in a predicament still gave him a surge of satisfaction in his heart.
With Little White’s special talent alone, if Wu Pojun dared to harm him during an expedition, Xiao Ye would directly use the army of ferocious beasts to send him to hell.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ye slightly smiled and chased after Wu Pojun and his group.
Wu Pojun and his twelve disciples, constantly pursued by a large number of ferocious beasts, had fled hundreds of miles before the beasts gradually retreated, allowing them to finally breathe a sigh of relief, completely exhausted.
Though they were martial artists of the King Martial Realm, they couldn’t keep up with the flying ferocious beasts of the King Martial, thus when they relaxed, they immediately felt incredibly tired and lay on the ground, panting heavily.
"This is really strange!"
"These King Martial ferocious beasts were already tamed by an Emperor Realm elder, why would they suddenly attack us today?"
"I must report this incident once we get back!"
Wu Pojun and his thirteen disciples’ faces expressed confusion.
At this moment, Xiao Ye was approaching from afar, riding the air. He, in his long robe fluttering and hair flying, appeared extremely dashing, far better than any of the disciples.
Wu Pojun’s pupils constricted as his gaze fell on Xiao Ye.
"This kid wasn’t attacked by those King Martial Realm ferocious beasts!" A trace of cold light flashed in Wu Pojun’s eyes.
The other thirteen disciples also showed puzzled looks when they saw Xiao Ye.
"Xiao Ye, among us, you have the lowest status and strength. Go fetch us some water," Wu Pojun said to Xiao Ye with a sinister look in his eyes, clearly harboring ill intentions.
Xiao Ye was slightly startled upon hearing this, then a cold laugh echoed in his heart.
Had they barely left the Holy Palace and Wu Pojun was already seeking a pretext to trouble him?
"Alright, dear senior brothers, please wait here, junior brother will go fetch the water," Xiao Ye didn’t refuse but gracefully turned around and flew towards a dense forest in the distance.
Seeing Xiao Ye so readily agreeing, a more sinister smile appeared on Wu Pojun’s face.
"My fellow disciples, it’s Xiao Ye’s first time leaving the Holy Palace, he’s not familiar with this place, plus, his cultivation is the weakest among us. I’m afraid he might encounter danger there. I better go with him. You guys wait here."
Wu Pojun couldn’t wait to stand up, saluted the thirteen disciples with his hands, and then chased after Xiao Ye.
Those thirteen disciples were rendered speechless by his words, everyone’s minds were crystal clear.
Xiao Ye was a ferocious beast of the King Martial Realm, how could he possibly be in danger here? It was obvious that Wu Pojun was plotting to harm Xiao Ye.
However, none of them stood up as after all, they all knew, behind Wu Pojun stood Lin Feng, who would dare spoil Lin Feng’s plans?
"Just as expected, he followed." At this moment, while flying, Xiao Ye felt a faint fluctuation coming from behind and a cold smile appeared on his face.
If Wu Pojun planned to make his move here against him, then he would give him a taste of what true fear was, since he had already made preparations just a while ago.
