Chapter 484: The Youth From The Leopard Clan

A’dai instinctively opened its mouth and sent out a stream of flames to block the flying arrow before looking around.

“Who’s there?” Yun Jiuge asked and sat up. Only then did she realize that there were several people lying near the mountain range.

Well, to be precise, these were not regular people.

These people only had a piece of animal skin tied around their waists. Their naked bodies were as brown as the earth, and it was difficult to tell where they were when they were lying on the ground.

They looked like humans but had thick tails behind them, like lizards.

Were these Demons?

Yun Jiuge shot Zi Shang a questioning look.

Zi Shang shook his head and mouthed, “Human-beast hybrids.”

Human-beast hybrids and Demons were different. Human-beast hybrids were predominantly beasts. They looked like beasts and had the same behavior.

On the other hand, Demons were able to cultivate Internal Elixirs, and could potentially become a Demon Fairy one day, which was much more advanced than human-beast hybrids.

“Miss, you don’t need to be afraid. We’ll rescue you once we kill this damn human-bird hybrid,” said a clear voice from the tree.

It wasn’t the main language spoken in the Canglan Continent but a very strange one.

Fortunately, since Yun Jiuge obtained the Magic Cauldron, she activated its Multilingual Ability and was thus able to understand that language.

Yun Jiuge followed the sound of the voice and found a youth from the Leopard Clan who was on a large tree in the distance.

He had brown hair, round ears, pronounced facial features, and wheat-colored skin. There were light golden spots on his face, and he had a cloth tied around his waist. A long tail dragged behind him.

“Wait, are you mistaken? This is my Spiritual Beast mount, not a human-bird hybrid,” Yun Jiuge said loudly.

“Your mount?” The youth from the Leopard Clan froze for a moment, then shouted loudly, “You must have been tricked by it. It’s not a mount, but Prince Ling Fei of the Eagle Clan.”

“Miss, only Ling Fei from our human-beast hybrid clan has such a huge body and can completely transform. You must have heard this before,” said a Lizard-like therianthrope who was also standing on the ground.

He looked no different from humans, except that his ears opened like an umbrella. His facial features were quite handsome and not inferior to that youth from the Leopard Clan.

“The human-bird hybrids have no females, so they snatch women from all over back to Eagle Cliff. After the women lay eggs, they’ll eat them. They’re the most cruel and vicious race in the world,” shouted the youth from the Leopard Clan angrily.

“Yes, you mustn’t be fooled by him, Miss.” The other Lizard-like therianthropes also chimed in.

“A’dai, you’re terrible,” Yun Jiuge said. She couldn’t help but pat A’dai’s fat head.

“Caw, I want to go home,” said A’dai, who didn’t look at the two human-beast hybrids but focused on transmitting to Yun Jiuge.

“Go home with A’dai first,” Zi Shang transmitted to Yun Jiuge. “These human-beast hybrids aren’t good people.”

“Why do you say that?” Yun Jiuge asked, puzzled. She thought these human-beast hybrids were good people. At least they were willing to save her, an unknown woman.

“Look at their eyes carefully, they’re full of hunger and greed. They probably bring women back to lay eggs before eating them,” Zi Shang said.

Only then did Yun Jiuge see the other Lizard-like therianthropes lying on the ground.

These Lizard-like therianthropes were different from the two rational and handsome men who had just spoken.

They looked more like beasts. Their bodies were thin, which was probably caused by long-term hunger.

They looked at Zi Shang and A’dai with greed and longing, as if they were looking at two pieces of meat.

But none of these Lizard-like therianthropes even glanced at Yun Jiuge, as if she already had a master and could not be violated.

“If A’dai is really the Prince of Eagle Clan, then you’ll be the master of the Eagle Clan. I think they’re more trustworthy than these human-beast hybrids,” Zi Shang said.

“Well, let’s go there with A’dai then,” Yun Jiuge said. She instantly made a decision, and then used her Divine Knowledge to transmit to A’dai, “Let’s go!”

“Caw caw caw!” A’dai immediately spread its wings and flew towards the sky.

Zi Shang swiftly carried Yun Jiuge and jumped onto its back just as it took off.

The human-beast hybrids surrounding them hadn’t expected them to run away just like that. It was too late to shoot arrows at them.

“Damn it!” The youth from the Leopard Clan was really angry. If he knew that this would happen, he would have shot Ling Fei before he ran away and taken the woman with him.

“It’s okay, they must’ve gone to Eagle Cliff. Let’s go back and inform the Divine Envoy, then send someone to guard the entrance of Eagle Cliff,” the Lizard-like therianthrope said in a calm and orderly manner.

“But if that’s the case, the reward is probably going to be divided up evenly,” said the youth from the Leopard Clan, dissatisfied.

If they could catch the beautiful woman, the reward would be enough to last the two tribes for a long time.

“It’s better to divide it up evenly than to die. It’s not like you aren’t aware of the current situation. We can’t go to Eagle Cliff,” the Lizard-like therianthrope said with a sigh. It was good enough that they were still alive.

“Okay!” The youth from the Leopard Clan answered reluctantly.

Death energy was spreading in the Secret Realm, and there were death swamps everywhere. Even the strongest warrior could not pass through them safely. They needed the Divine Knowledge of the Divine Envoy in order to do so.

After the youth from the Leopard Clan and the Lizard-like therianthrope finished their discussion, they quickly retreated down the mountain, leaving in the opposite direction from Yun Jiuge.

At this time, Yun Jiuge and Zi Shang were already riding on A’dai to Eagle Cliff.

She didn’t know if it was because of homesickness or some other reason, but A’dai kept circling around on the spot and was unwilling to fly into the black cliff.

“Shall we say hello first?” Yun Jiuge asked.

“Yes,” Zi Shang said and nodded. He took a stone and threw it at the black cliff.

It smashed into the cliff with a bang.

“Tsk, who’s destroyed my lair,” a thunderous voice sounded.

Two figures silently flew out of the black cliff and blocked Yun Jiuge and Zi Shang.

Yun Jiuge looked at the two human-beast hybrids in front of them who were flapping their wings and holding a spear. She realized that the Leopard Clan youth was right. They were really human-bird hybrids.

“It’s a beautiful girl,” said a bearded man who was standing in front. Behind him, his wings were golden and blue. When he saw Yun Jiuge, he immediately said in surprise, “This beautiful girl is mine.”

“A’ze, wait,” a fair-skinned man interrupted and pulled him back. He had long eyebrows and small eyes and looked like the Advisor of the human-bird hybrids. Hesitantly pointing at A’dai, who was under Yun Jiuge’s feet, he asked, “Is this His Highness Ling Fei?

“His Highness Ling Fei?” A’ze exclaimed and froze for a moment. He looked at A’dai carefully, then said in shock, “It really is His Highness Ling Fei. His Highness is so incredible! Even after disappearing for so long, he’s still managed to bring a beautiful girl back!”
