Chapter 1388: Chapter 1384: Crisis Lurks Everywhere_1 Chapter 1388: Chapter 1384: Crisis Lurks Everywhere_1 The Red Winged Roc’s speed advantage lies in its swiftness and stability.

Normally, if the Red Winged Roc were to move too fast, it would undoubtedly face endless resistance, affecting the stability of its speed. However, when the Red Winged Roc spreads its wings, it completely ignores these factors, without encountering any resistance at all.

This allows them to fly smoothly and steadily along the way. In just a little over two days, the clouds in the sky have completely changed their appearance.

Looking down, Xiang Yue blinked her big eyes and said, “Brother Yang, sister-in-law, we’ve reached the Tiger Fang Region, and the largest tribe here is the Blade Tiger Clan!”

Upon hearing the Blade Tiger Clan mentioned, Yang Chen couldn’t help but pause, and he exchanged a glance with Cai Yi, clearly having not anticipated this. Although Cai Yi has some understanding of the monster tribes, time changes things, and no one can guarantee that her knowledge from back then still holds up today.

Who would have thought that after finally leaving the Wasteland Zone to escape the pursuit of the Blade Tiger Clan, they would end up right in their territory?

What kind of luck is this?

Fortunately, Xiang Yue continued, “But the Blade Tiger Clan should mostly be attacking the humans now, and there probably won’t be many of them remaining at their main camp.”

Hearing this, Yang Chen knew that he was most likely worrying over nothing. Right now, the Blade Tiger Clan was in the Thirty-six Eastern Counties. Even if Emperor Ren Hu wanted to hunt him down, he wouldn’t be able to predict that he would be in the Tiger Fang Region, waiting for him.

Yang Chen said, “Let’s find a place to rest for a while. We should recuperate properly before setting off again after this long journey.”

“Alright, whatever Brother Yang says,” Xiang Yue nodded gently, showing her obedience.

During their journey, Yang Chen and Xiang Yue have talked a lot. He found Xiang Yue to be a very well-behaved, gentle girl, just like a lady in the human world.

Well-read and skilled in literature and martial arts, she called him “Brother Yang” sweetly, which could soothe a man’s bones. The only downside was that for some reason, she never smiled. Up until now, Yang Chen had not seen her smile even once.

Finding this strange, Yang Chen thought about looking into it but decided against it in the end.

As such, the group stopped at a town within the Wasteland Zone. However, their Red Winged Roc was a highly prized possession, so they didn’t reveal it to others. Instead, they found a place and hid the Red Winged Roc inside the Eight Extremities Flowing River Space.

If they were to expose it in public, considering the rarity of the Red Winged Roc, it would certainly induce others’ greed. At the moment, their team’s style forbade anything high-profile.

When they reached the Tiger Fang Region, they found that its richness far surpassed that of the Wasteland Zone. The Wasteland Zone wasn’t called that for no reason.

In fact, at a glance, although the monster territories looked barren and desolate, their wealth was in no way inferior to that of humans – they were even more affluent.

Take the Red Winged Roc’s price for example – even a Peak of Heaven Martial Realm expert wouldn’t waste tens of thousands of Spirit Stones on transportation if they were in the human world.

In the end, it all came down to two factors: first, the monster territories were vast, with resources that were far more abundant than those of humans; and second, humans were far more intelligent and frugal than monsters. They used most of their resources for construction and cultivation, and even if they had some extra money, they were very stingy with it, unlike the monsters.

And so, the group found a place to stay in the city within the Tiger Fang Region – something they couldn’t have done in the Wasteland Zone.

While the conditions were still miserable, they could at least rest their feet for a few days.

Yang Chen stayed close to the Golden Crow Team along with Cai Yi, providing protection for them.

As such, after everyone settled down, Yang Chen immediately called Xiang Yue to his side.

After finding a place to stay, Xiang Yue changed into a fiery red dress. When she returned, Xiang Yue’s youthful elegance couldn’t be hidden as she asked gently, “I heard Brother Yang was looking for me?”

Yang Chen said, “Please, take a seat, Miss Xiang Yue.”

Xiang Yue wasn’t sure what Yang Chen wanted, so she just stared at him and Cai Yi in surprise.

Without dragging things out, Yang Chen got straight to the point and asked, “I want to know the specific process of how the Kirin underlings hunted you down. You could probably guess why I want to know this – Cai Yi and I need to be prepared at all times for potential hidden dangers.”

With Xiang Yue’s intelligence, she could of course see through these reasons. While she was still young, her mind was much sharper than Cai Yi’s.

She immediately recounted the details of the Kirin Clan’s pursuit in full. As Yang Chen listened closely, he frowned tighter and tighter.

As he expected, Xiang Yue originally had several strong experts by her side. It made sense that the Golden Crow Clan, occupying the top spot among the monster kings, had a formidable traveling party. With three half-step Spirit Formation Stage experts and over a dozen Peak of Heaven Martial Realm experts, they were practically unrivaled in the Wasteland Zone.

However, the Kirin underlings were even more formidable, dispatching a Spirit Plate Emperor to lead several underlings in a surprise attack.

This attack caught both the Golden Crow Clan and their traveling party off guard. In an instant, the Golden Crows suffered heavy casualties.

But their party wasn’t completely defenseless against the Kirin underlings. Although they had a Spirit Plate Emperor leading the charge, they didn’t completely annihilate the traveling party. The Golden Crow Team managed to escape after paying the price of losing two half-step Spirit Formation Stage masters.

What made Yang Chen feel something was off was that even after the Golden Crow Team had evidently escaped, the very same Kirin underlings inexplicably found and attacked them again.

That time, the Golden Crow Team suffered even worse casualties, with 90% of them dying, leaving only a fraction of the original team. There weren’t even a few Peak of Heaven Martial Realm experts left – only a few Earth Martial Realm Golden Crow attendants and scattered Peak of Heaven Martial Realm elders survived.

These survivors managed to escape eventually, and then they met Yang Chen, finally forming an alliance with him.

“That’s how everything happened,” Xiang Yue recounted without any omissions.

Yang Chen rubbed his eyebrows, “How strange.”

Xiang Yue looked puzzled, “Brother Yang, what do you think is strange?”

“Yes, what’s strange about it?” Cai Yi also inquired.

Yang Chen said, “Spirit Plate Stage masters are worlds apart from half-step Spirit Formation Stage masters. Frankly, I don’t think a Spirit Plate Stage master would personally attack and let your team live a second time.”

“Our Golden Crow Clan has our own secret arts, which allowed us to escape,” Xiang Yue explained.

Yang Chen nodded, “Then the key question is, how did the Kirin underlings find you all for the second time.”

“I’ve considered that question too. I think it must be a combination of their luck and our own carelessness,” Xiang Yue said after some thought.
