“Don't I know him already?” the White Tiger King said with a look of disdain. “Xiao Long likes that magic beast lady, and he thinks that by marrying Xiao Long, it’s basically the same as taking the magic beast lady for himself... That's what you're thinking, right?”
Having been exposed, the Magic Wolf King couldn't save face. The black sub-dragon lady punched him, sending him flying on the spot.
“Drop dead!”
Soon, almost all the mythic magic beasts had arrived.
At that moment, the Magic Beast King, situated at the very center, raised its head.
It was a giant war elephant.
“I have called you all here today to discuss the swarms of monsters invading the outskirts. Those creatures are not magic beasts at all, but another, even more terrifying species. I believe we magic beasts should unite to defeat them.”
“What happened?”
A Tier 12 female mythic king asked, looking completely bewildered.
Another magic beast beside her glanced over. “A type of creature that attacks frantically has appeared on the outskirts of the forest.”
“Indeed. Let me show you the corpses.”
The Magic Beast King struck with a paw, and the nearby rocks rolled aside, revealing several locusts and zerglings within.
The moment they saw the zerglings, the hearts of the Black Dragon King and the White Tiger King skipped a beat.
They exchanged a look.
“It’s that lady’s race.”
“How is that possible?”
They exchanged a few words privately.
The most ridiculous thing was that the zergling had reached Tier 9.
“Everyone, care to guess why I judged that these are not magic beasts?” the Magic Beast King asked.
“Because they aren't from the forest?”
“They don't have magic cores, right? If none of the individuals have magic cores, then they definitely cannot belong to our tribes.”
Hearing the discussion below, the Magic Beast King nodded. “Yes. Therefore, they are certainly enemies. Their aggression is too high; even the weakest are at Tier 9, and their numbers have reached the millions.”
“Hiss... how can there be so many?”
“This is too terrifying. Could it be a plot by the humans?”
“Impossible. How could humans command so many fearsome monsters?”
...
Amidst the chatter, the Magic Beast King didn't waste much more time and issued the order for everyone to take action.
Upon receiving the request, most mythic kings immediately returned to their territories.
Although war was about to break out, the movement speed of many kings was not particularly fast.
This interval was the time for the black sub-dragon lady to act.
She wanted to know what was happening.
So, without thinking too much, she flapped her wings, left the ground, and began flying toward Xia Jin’s location at full speed.
Not long after, a projection located in the Border Forest had already learned of her presence through the scourges.
Well, it seemed a few scourges had even been shot down.
However, after noticing that these creatures were actually staying with the zerglings, she stopped her attack.
Shortly after, their eyes met, and the black sub-dragon lady landed.
“Hi, long time no see,” Xia Jin waved at her.
The moment she saw the cute girl, the black sub-dragon lady’s original intention to demand answers instantly vanished.
She really was just too cute; one look made her heart pound.
“Dammit, why are you so cute?”
The very first sentence out of her mouth made Xia Jin a bit speechless.
“I...”
There wasn't exactly anything wrong with being cute, was there?
Why was this girl making such a huffy expression?
“So...”
“Just run away.” The black sub-dragon lady fell silent for a moment before sighing. “Although I don't know why you're doing this, since we are husband and wife, I should protect you.”
Xia Jin: “???”
What kind of nonsense was this 'husband and wife' business? When did they get married?
“This time, the Magic Beast King ordered the attack against you. There are thousands of Tier 10 mythic kings. I only have a few friends and no ability to protect you. Why don't you flee toward the humans? Your strength seems very high now, and you're so cute; it should be easy for you to protect yourself in human territory.”
“Hmm—actually, there's no need to run.” After thinking for a moment, Xia Jin said softly, “Is the Magic Beast King the strongest among the magic beasts?”
“Yes, he is extremely powerful. I've heard that the most formidable mythic magic beast is already at Tier 12, but according to him, the Magic Beast King is even more powerful than that, so he should be at Tier 13. Do you know what that means?”
“Tier 13, huh? Then it’s not much of a problem,” Xia Jin said with a sigh of relief.
The black sub-dragon lady: “???”
What did she mean by that expression?
“A mere Tier 13 is something I have ways to handle. Even Tier 14 wouldn't be much of a problem. In any case, the one here isn't my true body. Hehe...”
The black sub-dragon lady narrowed her eyes.
After a few seconds, she suddenly wore a strange expression. “How did you suddenly become so powerful? Where is the real little cutie? You aren't her!”
“I am her.”
Xia Jin yawned and waved her hand. The surrounding Swarm immediately rose and charged toward the direction of the magic beasts.
Seeing this, the black sub-dragon lady also seemed to realize that Xia Jin intended to start a direct war with the magic beasts.
Had she gone mad?
