175: Netherworld Black Tiger

"Run, these humans are too strong, we are no match for them!"

The mid-Saint King Realm demonic beast fighting Gu Chen roared, intending to abandon Gu Chen and flee.

The other demonic beasts heard its cry and didn't hesitate, dragging their injured bodies as they tried to rush in all directions.

"Hmph, if we let you run away, then our cultivation would have been for nothing!"

"That's right, all of you stay!"

Seeing these severely injured demonic beasts preparing to escape.

Gu Chen and Mu Xueqing and the other three roared, swiftly attacking the fleeing demonic beasts.

They had severely wounded these demonic beasts; how could they let them slip away?

"Ahhh!"

Under the full pursuit of Gu Chen and his companions, these severely wounded and terrified demonic beasts were quickly killed.

Seeing the Saint Realm demonic beasts besieging the Yanri Sect being so quickly slain by Gu Chen and his companions.

The Yanri Sect's Saint King Ancestors, and the Yanri Sect Master's disciples and others who were killing low-level demonic beasts below, were once again shocked with wide-open mouths.

"These... these young heroes are too terrifying, aren't they? Not only can they fight above their realm, but they also killed them so quickly?"

"Indeed, fighting several demonic beasts with higher cultivation than themselves, and still being able to kill them so easily, their combat power is simply heaven-defying."

The three Yanri Sect Saint King Ancestors looked at Night Owl and the four others with horrified expressions.

From Night Owl killing the three demonic beasts to Gu Chen killing the fleeing demonic beasts, it all happened within a few breaths.

They couldn't imagine how powerful Gu Chen and the four others' true strength had become.

To fight above their realm and still easily kill shapeshifting demonic beasts was truly too strong.

As all these Saint Realm shapeshifting demonic beasts died.

The overwhelming low-level demonic beasts besieging the Yanri Sect scattered and fled in all directions.

Before long, there were no living demonic beasts left near the Yanri Sect, only piles of demonic beast corpses.

"Haha, Senior Brother Ye, the harvest this time is pretty good. So many Saint Realm demonic beasts, enough to eat for a while."

Gu Chen returned with two Saint Realm demonic beast corpses, cheerfully throwing them next to the three demonic beasts Night Owl had killed.

Soon, Mu Xueqing and the two other women also returned, each with a demonic beast corpse.

They also threw them next to the demonic beasts killed by Night Owl and Gu Chen.

"Hmm, Junior Brother Gu, put them away. We'll go to other places to hunt Saint Realm demonic beasts."

Looking at the dozen or so demonic beast corpses in front of them.

Night Owl nodded, telling Gu Chen to put them away, and then continue to other places to hunt demonic beasts.

"Alright, I'll keep these demonic beasts. Just say the word if you want to eat them," Gu Chen said with a smile, storing the demonic beast corpses in his storage space.

Just as the five were about to set off for other places.

The three Saint King Ancestors of the Yanri Sect called out.

"Young heroes, you have resolved this difficulty for our Yanri Sect. Why not come into our Yanri Sect to rest for a while, so we can fulfill our duties as hosts and express our gratitude?"

"That's right, young heroes, if it weren't for you, our Yanri Sect would probably have been annihilated today. Please, come into the sect to rest, and let us treat you well."

The three Saint King Ancestors of the Yanri Sect sincerely cupped their hands, trying to persuade Night Owl and the four others to stay.

If Night Owl and the four others hadn't acted, the Yanri Sect's formation would have been broken sooner or later.

And under the siege of so many demonic beasts, they would have certainly met a grim fate.

Now that Night Owl and the four others were leaving without a word, they felt truly apologetic.

"No need, we weren't saving you; we were just hunting demonic beasts."

"Right, old seniors, we still have demonic beasts to hunt, so we don't have time to rest in your sect."

Hearing the Yanri Sect Saint King Ancestors invite them to rest in the sect.

Gu Chen and Mu Xueqing turned their heads and refused.

They didn't have time to rest in the Yanri Sect, and they didn't feel that the five of them were helping the Yanri Sect.

After all, they were here to hunt Saint Realm demonic beasts, and the Yanri Sect just happened to have them.

"This..." Rejected by Gu Chen and Mu Xueqing, the three Saint King Ancestors of the Yanri Sect looked at each other awkwardly.

However, after exchanging glances.

One of them continued to cup his hands and said, "Since the young heroes are unwilling to rest in the sect, we dare not force you."

"However, the righteous act of the young heroes today truly saved our Yanri Sect. Please, young heroes, leave your sect's name so our humble sect can record which sect's esteemed disciples rendered assistance, and forever remember this kindness."

Although they guessed that Night Owl and the four others were all disciples of the Qingtian Sect, it was just a guess, so they still wanted to confirm.

"Hehe, we are all disciples of the Qingtian Sect. You can take your time recording that," Gu Chen replied cheerfully, then flew away from the Yanri Sect with Night Owl and his companions.

Although they were unwilling to rest in the sect, they would not refuse to bring honor to their sect.

After all, this merit would be attributed to the sect, and this incident would be forever recorded in the Yanri Sect's historical records.

After all, this merit would be attributed to the sect, and this incident would be forever recorded in the Yanri Sect's historical records.

"Hiss, they really are disciples of the Qingtian Emperor Sect."

"Only the Qingtian Emperor Sect could cultivate such powerful disciples."

Hearing Gu Chen speak the name of the Qingtian Sect.

The three Saint King Ancestors of the Yanri Sect looked at the disappearing figures of the five with complex expressions.

After Night Owl and Gu Chen and the three others left the Yanri Sect.

They began to wander through the nearby states. Wherever there were Saint Realm demonic beasts, their figures would appear.

One by one, the Saint Realm demonic beasts besieging cities and sects were killed by them.

And after these Saint Realm demonic beasts died, the beast tides they commanded also retreated.

Such unusual behavior quickly attracted the attention of the initiator of the Southern Domain's beast tide, a Tiger Demon at the seventh stage of Quasi-Emperor.

In a luxurious hall in a certain city.

A burly man with thick eyebrows sat in the main seat of the hall.

Below him knelt hundreds of shapeshifting demonic beasts, from Saint Realm to Saint King Realm.

"Trash, you bunch of trash!"

"Five Saint Realm humans scared you all out of your wits, why are you still alive and coming back?!"

The burly man furiously cursed at the Saint Realm and Saint King Realm shapeshifting demonic beasts below.

This person was the initiator of this Southern Domain beast tide, the Netherworld Profound Tiger, a seventh-stage Quasi-Emperor.

Because Night Owl and his companions had hunted down hundreds of Saint Realm and Saint King Realm demonic beasts in a dozen or so states near Fengzhou.

A group of Saint Realm demonic beasts, who were carrying out clear-up missions near these states, were directly scared into retreating, even abandoning the beast tide.

This made him extremely furious, wishing he could slap all these cowardly demonic beasts to death.

"Lord Xuanhu, it's not that we are afraid of death, but those few people are too terrifying. They can easily kill us by fighting above their realm."

"That's right, Lord Xuanhu, those few people specifically target us, the Saint Realm to Saint King demonic beasts, for hunting. And we are no match for them, so we had no choice but to return."

Hundreds of Saint Realm to Saint King demonic beasts knelt on the ground, complaining with snot and tears.

In reality, they were just afraid of death, which is why they ran back. But how could they admit it? They could only exaggerate how powerful Night Owl and his companions were to escape the Netherworld Profound Tiger's punishment.
