Chapter Thirty-Seven: Losing Control

  This week is about to drop a new book list, students who haven't collected it yet, please collect it! Students who haven't recommended it yet, please vote! Hehe!

  Everyone listened to Xu Ziyuan's words and looked far into the distance in front of the mountain path, indeed they couldn't see any trace of the demon beasts. Everyone was wondering where those demon beasts had gone. Could it be that they really went to Changri Valley as Xu Ziyuan said? But Changri Valley is a place easy to defend but hard to attack, and the easiest place to launch an attack on would still be their own family's Tongyao Valley!

  No one could understand why, not just the disciples at Xuziyan's fork in the road, but also the disciples at another fork in the road were looking at the mountain path in front of them with confusion. Yesterday they had suffered an attack by a demon beast, and originally thought that there would be even more ferocious attacks over the next few days, but as it approached noon, still not a single shadow of a demon beast was seen.

  The Xus' disciples were wandering around in confusion, while the City Lord's Manor, Xiao family and Wu family only had depression left. Originally, the City Lord's Manor should have been the most leisurely place, but now it has become the most dangerous place. Originally, Li Wanpeng followed his previous experience with the beast tide, and the demon beasts almost never walked on the official road, so he chose to guard the official road first.

  However, what he didn't expect was that around noon, a vast and ferocious beast charged towards the people guarding the City Master's Mansion on the official road. The official road was just an open area, with no danger to defend against. In an instant, the people guarding the City Master's Mansion were scattered all over the place. Li Wanbao's face had turned completely green with fear, and he could feel a wet sensation in his crotch. He quickly turned around and fled back to Zhongdu City in a state of panic. By the time he escaped back to Zhongdu City, only over a hundred people were left out of the original thousand from the City Master's Mansion.

  As for the Wu family on Luofeng Ridge, at this moment Wu Yue was standing on Luofeng Ridge, gazing down at the beast tide below. From the ridge, the demonic beasts formed a line, charging towards the mountain pass. Because the mountain pass was very narrow, only one demonic beast could pass through at a time, so although from the ridge it seemed like the demonic beasts' formation stretched on forever and couldn't be seen to the end, the pressure on the Wu family wasn't great. A group of people gathered at the valley entrance, facing the mountain pass where only one demonic beast could come out at a time, they killed them without much effort.

  However, occasionally flying monsters would fly over from the air, but fortunately, there were not many flying monsters. Although they could also hurt Wu's disciples and make them busy, they still tightly guarded Luofeng Ridge.

  The situation in Changri Valley was slightly worse than that of Luofeng Ridge, because Changri Valley could rush over three demon beasts at once, and occasionally there were flying demon beasts attacking, although the Xiao family still tightly guarded Changri Valley, but the damage was more severe than that of the Wu family.

  Wu Yue and Xiao Ruxing were thinking the same thing in their hearts, which was that there were too many demonic beasts in the place they were stationed. Was it possible that this beast tide wasn't a medium-sized one, but a large-scale one? If it was a large-scale beast tide, even if they could hold on to the main road, would the Permitted family be able to hold on as well?

  Wu Yue and Xiao Ruxing thought this way, not because they were worried about the Xu family. What they were worried about was that there were endless demonic beasts here, so the Tongyao Valley of the Xu family must have even more demonic beasts, and it was also a place where it was easy to attack but difficult to defend. It's likely that the thousand people in the Xu family wouldn't be able to hold on.

  The death of the Xus and the Wus has nothing to do with the Xiaos, who wouldn't care even if they all died at the hands of the demonic beasts. The three families have lived together in the same city for thousands of years, accumulating grievances and hatred that have reached a boiling point. So, even if the beast tide can't destroy the Xus now, they have already planned their next move against them.

  What they are worried about is that if the Xu family is killed by the demon beasts, then the demon beasts will come to their rear through Tongyu Valley, cutting off their connection with Zhongdu City. At that time, they will be attacked from both front and back, and it will be fatal for them. If the demon beasts really attack from behind, I'm afraid not many of the people they brought this time will be able to return to Zhongdu City.

  Time passed in the midst of a fierce battle, and suddenly at the entrance to Long Day Valley, Xiao Ruxue and Wu Yue felt a tremor run through their bodies as they turned to look behind them. In the distance, a rumbling sound like thunder could be heard, but on the vast snowy plain, there was no sign of any living creature, only an endless expanse of white. However, that thunder-like sound grew louder and louder, causing the earth to begin shaking.

  Suddenly, on the vast snowy field, a black dot appeared abruptly, that black dot lined up in a line, when it first appeared, it seemed to be far away in the sky, but instantly it expanded rapidly, filling the eyes of Xiao and Wu families' disciples.

  That was a vast and endless monster, rushing towards us in the wild. These monsters were exactly from the official road, after killing most of the people in the city master's mansion, they found that beast summoning symbol. However, this beast summoning symbol immediately triggered a scramble among the monsters, just for an instant, the symbol was torn to shreds by a group of monsters in the scramble.

  The torn beast symbol quickly lost its effect, and in less than a minute, the scent of the stealth grass disappeared completely. All the demonic beasts looked around in confusion, constantly sniffing their noses, trying to find the source of the stealth grass scent.

  Then, the monsters quickly discovered the source of the scent of the Squatting Empty Grass, in the direction of Luofeng Ridge and Changri Valley. All the monsters immediately became excited and rushed towards Luofeng Ridge and Changri Valley with a loud "wow".

  So, the Wu and Xiao families were tragic. The two people absolutely did not think that these monsters were killed from the official road of the city master's mansion. On the contrary, they unanimously believed in their hearts that they were rushing from the direction of Xiao's residence in Tongyugou.

  Wu Yue and Xiao Ruxing were also decisive people, immediately realizing that they could not hold this place. So, he immediately ordered his family disciples to break through in the direction of Zhongdu City. In their consciousness, the demon beast was impacting from the Tongyugou direction, so as long as they broke through in the direction of Zhongdu City, it must be the weakest place for the demon beast.

  However, reality is cruel. The direction they broke through was exactly where the most demonic beasts were, because the demonic beasts came from the official road. So, when Wu's family and Xiao's family got rid of the demonic beasts and fled towards Zhongdu City, more than a thousand people came in a mighty manner, with only a dozen or so people left in each family. Not as many as the people left in the city master's mansion who ran away at the sight of the demonic beasts.

  At this time, in the Zhongdu City, within the Xu family, Xu Haoran had already woken up and fully recovered. Xu Hao was standing in front of Xu Haoran, his face pale as he listened to Xu Haoran's loud scolding.

  I saw the comment from Wan Yuan Xin Xiang, first of all thank you for your attention to this book. Don't worry, this book won't be a tragic love story. Haha, Xu Lin has his own background and story, which will slowly unfold later on, please allow me to keep it hidden for now.
