C473 boundless desert

After Yang Yong received the battle report of the garrison troops at the western border of Tianyuan Empire for help, he brought Yang Long and Yang Hu over overnight. Although the journey was long and due to the critical battle situation, Yang Yong and the other two did not rest. After swapping mounts for horses, they finally reached the western border after a day and a night of galloping.

On the border of the Western Desert, there was a huge castle that was dozens of meters tall. The endless city walls separated the Tianyuan Empire from the Western Desert. When Yang Yong and the rest arrived at the top of the castle, they couldn't help sucking in a breath of cold air when they saw the ferocious beasts that were attacking them from the outside.

This was because, as the report stated, there were too many giant beasts that came to attack. In the past, there were only one or two giant beasts that attacked here, but this time, there were over a hundred giant beasts!

This was the Western Desert, so the giant beasts that appeared were usually living in the desert, such as giant lizards, mammoths, giant lions, giant pythons that were tens of meters long, and so on. These giant beasts, in the past, were already hard to deal with if one or two appeared here, because these giant beasts were not only huge in size, but also incomparably powerful in strength.

However, what they did not expect was that more than a hundred of them would appear this time, which was an unprecedented calamity for the Tianyuan Empire, because if these huge beasts attacked the Tianyuan Empire, then they would definitely cause huge damage, so they would not be able to enter the Tianyuan Empire.

After arriving here, Yang Yong immediately began to organize his soldiers to counterattack. Naturally, they could not take the initiative to attack. Facing so many huge beasts, if they took the initiative to attack, their losses would be even greater. At this time, the only thing they could do was defend this castle and prevent these beasts from going past it and attacking the Tianyuan Empire.

On top of the huge castle, the stone catapults were already shooting giant rocks at the beasts in front of them. Rows after rows of them would take turns to shoot those giant beasts with their arrows, but those giant beasts had rough skin and thick flesh. Even if the huge rocks hit them, it would only cause them a little bit of pain, and when the arrows hit them, they wouldn't even be able to penetrate their skin!

Although this kind of attack could not truly injure the behemoth advancing towards the castle, it was still able to stop them for a while, but it was only able to stop them for a short while. As time passed, the giant rock that was used as a catapult was gone, and the soldiers' bows and arrows were all used up.

Seeing this situation, Yang Yong knew that he could only lead his soldiers to go out and block these giant beasts. Although many soldiers would die because of this, Yang Yong didn't want to see this kind of scene, but other than this, there was no other way.

In order to protect the Tianyuan Empire, there was no choice no matter how many soldiers he sacrificed. This was the duty of an Empire's soldier! Yang Yong pulled out the long blade in his waist and was about to ask his soldiers to open the city gates and rush out with him to kill those giant beasts, when suddenly, a huge black cloud floated over from the direction of the Tianyuan Empire.

The black cloud rapidly approached the direction of the castle. Yang Yong could vaguely see that in the midst of the huge black cloud, there was a pair of blood colored wings flapping from time to time. A deafening roar came from the black cloud, and upon hearing it, all the beasts attacking the castle stopped in their tracks, looking up at the black cloud in fear.

The black clouds gradually dispersed and a huge beast that was over 800 meters long appeared in front of everyone. White scales, blood-red wings, and a very powerful appearance, this was a huge beast that had never appeared before in the Tianyuan Empire, so they did not know what it was. Everyone immediately became extremely nervous, afraid that this beast was also here to attack the Tianyuan Empire.

Just at this moment, a man and a woman suddenly fell from the body of that huge beast. When they saw them, Yang Yong and the other two let out a breath of relief, knowing that Tianyuan Empire had saved them today. The people who had come were naturally Yang Feng and Yang Yun. When Yang Yong and the others saw that Yang Feng had arrived, they were naturally no longer worried about the attacks from the huge beasts.

Looking at the gigantic beast that Yang Feng was riding on, they knew that even without Yang Feng doing anything, this gigantic beast alone was enough to deal with the beasts that were attacking them. It was just that Yang Yong and the rest found it strange, when did Yang Feng had such a huge beast? Why hadn't they seen it following by Yang Feng's side?

Yang Feng brought Yang Yun and landed on the castle. Then, he said to Xiao Qing who was hovering over his head, "Xiao Qing, I'll leave these things to you!"

Seeing those huge beasts that came to attack, Yang Feng didn't plan to attack, but rather let Xiao Qing handle them. Yang Feng saw that these huge beasts could cultivate to become demon beasts, so he had no prejudice towards demon beasts. If they could not be killed, then he would not kill them, so Yang Feng left Yang Feng to Xiao Qing to deal with them, and let Xiao Qing chase them away.

After Little Green heard Yang Feng's words, she spread out her huge blood wings and landed in front of the huge beasts that were sprawled on the ground after being intimidated by Little Blue's immense pressure. Then, she began to expel those huge beasts. However, those huge beasts didn't leave when Xiaoqing drove them away. Instead, they lay prostrate on the ground, crying out to her.

After Little Green heard the words of those huge beasts, she flapped her blood wings and flew back above Yang Feng. She changed her body, shrunk to about two feet and landed on Yang Feng's shoulder, then said to Yang Feng, "Master, they didn't come to attack these people, but because someone was afraid of them. If they didn't come, their lives would have been in danger."

Everyone on the castle was very surprised to hear Xiaoqing speak. None of them had ever seen a giant beast that could change its size, much less see a giant beast that could speak. As for Yang Yun who heard Xiaoqing's words, his eyes turned into peach hearts, as if he wished he could swallow Xiaoqing whole.

After Xiao Qing finished speaking, she felt Yang Yun's gaze and could not bear it any longer and immediately hid behind Yang Feng. The way Xiaoqing acted made Yang Yun even happier, and he couldn't help but reach out to grab Xiaoqing into his arms.

After Yang Feng heard Xiao Qing's words, he turned to Yang Yong and the rest and said, "You guys wait here, I'll go take a look."

After Yang Feng finished speaking, his figure flashed and appeared in front of the huge beasts, and naturally he brought Xiao Qing along as well, causing Yang Yun, who was about to grab Xiao Qing, to immediately pout unhappily. He looked in the direction Yang Feng had disappeared in, and his mouth was muttering something, but no one knew what he was talking about.

Just now, Yang Feng had also learned from Yang Yong that these beasts would usually only attack one or two humans, unlike this time, where there were so many beasts. Little Blue had also heard from the beasts that these beasts were forced to attack by humans, which made Yang Feng a little interested, but he wanted to see who forced these beasts to attack humans.

Yang Feng arrived in front of the huge beasts in a flash and had the huge beasts bring him to find the people who forced them to attack the human beings. At first, the huge beasts were unwilling, but under Xiao Qing's pressure, the huge beasts still agreed and brought Yang Feng to the Western Desert.

Yang Yong looked at the scene where blood was supposed to flow like a river, and was actually solved like this with Yang Feng's arrival. He was naturally incomparably excited in his heart! Although he had just heard from Xiao Qing that someone had ordered those huge beasts to attack the humans, Yang Yong believed that Yang Feng would be able to resolve this matter smoothly.

One of them was the desert in the western part of the continent. Not only was it because there was an endless desert that did not end there, there were many powerful beasts within the desert as well, and the most important reason was that there was a sect of immortals in the desert, and this sect was the Mount Shu Sword Sect.

Although the desert was vast, there was always an end. Although the giant beasts were strong, they could circle around them and not provoke them, so every year, there would be many people who would traverse the desert in order to enter Mount Shu Sword Sect. However, in order to live forever, the people who could obtain powerful strength had never achieved that.

Even those who were lucky enough to pass through the desert would not be able to enter the Mount Shu Sword Sect, and their final result would only be their deaths in this desert.

In this world's Tzu Yi Jing Zhai, although Mount Shu Sword Sect and Kunlun Faction would come to the Tianyuan Empire every year to recruit disciples, in the entire Tianyuan Empire, of the billions of people, only a few hundred would be accepted by the four sects. Thus, there were far too many people who wanted to enter their own sect without a chance.

As for the other Misty Peak, they had never accepted any disciples before. Although the people from the Tianyuan Empire knew about the existence of this sect, they had never seen anyone from the Misty Peak come to the Tianyuan Empire to recruit disciples.

When those huge beasts said that they were forced to attack humans, Yang Feng had actually already guessed that this was done by the people of the Mount Shu Sword Sect, because only the Cultivator had the power to control these huge beasts.

It was just that Yang Feng did not understand why the Mount Shu Sword Sect did this, what benefits did they get from urging these Giant Beasts to attack the human beings?

After Yang Feng came to this world, he found out that there were Tzu Yi Jing Zhai s in this world. When Mount Shu Sword Sect s and Kunlun Faction s came, he thought to himself that he shouldn't bother with them anymore.

They followed the huge beasts as they headed towards the boundless desert, looking for the disciple of the Mount Shu Sword Sect who forced them to attack the humans mentioned by the huge beasts.

After walking for more than a thousand li, Yang Feng finally saw two figures, but when the two figures saw Yang Feng, they immediately turned and ran. Yang Feng was looking for them, how could he let them escape?
