“It probably wasn’t the case. One of them was clearly human. I suspect it had something to do with the Caxton Continent. After all, not long ago, Winged Tiger City had plundered resources from the Caxton Continent and captured a significant number of slaves…”
“This time, It’s likely that emissaries from the Caxton Continent were dispatched for a rescue mission, and they just happened to coincide with the attack on Winged Tiger City from Rhino City, leaving Winged Tiger City’s defenses vulnerable…”
“I’ve checked, all those human slaves have been set free. Thorley left at this time, only to be controlled by those people…”
Eradin remained silent about the matter concerning Bastian.
“It seems there are still formidable figures in the Caxton Continent, capable of locating the reincarnator.” Braxton’s eyes sparkled. “No matter how many experts there are, if they dare to harm my son, I’ll annihilate the entire Caxton Continent.”
Braxton was filled with a deadly aura, and yet, the innocent Caxton Continent was inadvertently dragged into the fallout. They were unaware that they were on the brink of facing retaliation from the Celestial Palace.
At that moment, a sudden flash of red light filled the grand hall.
Braxton furrowed his brows and said, “Jovan is in danger. What a useless man! He can’t even handle Rhino City. How could ever dream of ruling the entire beast race like this?”
After finished speaking, Braxton glanced at the man in black beside and said, “Go check out the border and lend a hand to Jovan!”
“As you wish!” The man in black nodded, then his figure vanished instantly.

On the frontier, Jared watched with a cold gaze as Jovan continuously healed himself, yet made no move to attack.
“How about it? If you were to take your own life, at least your body would remain intact. Or perhaps, you could surrender now and incorporate the entirety of Winged Tiger City into Rhino City,” Jared said to Jovan.
“Dream on!” Jovan’s eyes widened. “Let me tell you, I’ve already set off and I’m about to arrive!”
Whoosh!
Just as the weighty words fell, a residual image burst forth from the horizon. A man in black was seen, with a dark dagger in his hand, landing beside Jovan.
“My Lord said you’re hopeless, so sent me over to help you… To kill whom?” The man in black spoke coldly to Jovan.
Even though Jovan was irritated by these words, was in someone else’s territory and thus had no choice but to endure them.
“Kill him…” Jovan pointed at Jared.
The man in black merely glanced at Jared, and without a word, was ready to take action.
Jared’s face was filled with disdain. He was about to make a move, but Flaxseed blocked him.
“I’ll handle this small fry!”
Then, Flaxseed threw a punch.
Boom!
The man in black was instantly forced to retreat, while Flaxseed gave a cold, mocking smile. In the blink of an eye, vanished from his original spot.
The man in black slightly furrowed his brows, watching as Flaxseed advanced toward him. His body oddly began to fade, ultimately leaving behind a series of afterimages. These afterimages attacked Flaxseed from all directions.
Upon witnessing this scene, Flaxseed’s eyes slightly narrowed. Subsequently, began to murmur incantations under his breath, causing a series of yellow charms to appear.
These charms swirled around Flaxseed, causing the space surrounding to tremble momentarily. A surge of robust energy, with Flaxseed at its core, radiated fiercely in all directions. At the same time, those charms seemed to sprout eyes, chasing after the lingering afterimages.
The man in black was taken aback, retreating repeatedly, but it was already too late.
Suddenly, a charm was affixed to his body.
Bang!
With a massive bang, the man in black exploded on the spot. Blood splattered everywhere.
Seeing this, everyone was dumbfounded.
What’s going on?
The person sent by the Celestial Palace’s Eighth Hall was just killed off so easily?
“Mr. Flaxseed, you’re not getting any younger, try to show off less in the future…” Upon observing the demeanor of Flaxseed, Jared couldn’t help but express himself.
“I could never outplay you, so I’ll leave the rest to you!” chuckled Flaxseed.
The two of them chatted and laughed, seemingly unconcerned by the tens of thousands of soldiers from Winged Tiger City.
Jovan knew, at this moment, his only chance of winning was to play the numbers game.
“Kill them all!” Jovan shouted in anger.
The soldiers of Winged Tiger City, one by one, charged toward Jared with roars of fury.
