On the Ancient God Plains.
In the sprawling palace, the sound of battle was cacophonous, coming and going like waves.
The Beast Tamers who were here were mostly like Ye Qiushan.
They had all been walking about the Ancient God Plains.
Then, all of a sudden, they found themselves in front of this sprawling palace.
And they were gripped by the treasures locked away in this palace.
Although Ancient God Planet had already been in existence for quite some time, a sprawling palace like this was the first of its kind on Ancient God Planet.
On top of that, the Beast Tamers stepping into this palace were not of very high levels.
The strongest of them was only at the Dark Iron level.
It seemed that every single treasure in this palace had been specifically prepared for these Dark Iron Beast Tamers.
As if someone was out there corralling them into this place.
"Fang Lan, we have to beware of those Eternal Night Clan Beast Tamers. I can't shake the feeling that they're up to no good!" said a young girl to a tall, slim girl beside her. She was dressed in a lovely shade of pink, a young girl with a lovable face, and they were in front of a lake by one of the halls.
"I got it!"
Fang Lan nodded solemnly. "If we come to blows later, Coco, you have to remember to stay behind me."
After she said that, she turned to the other of the dozen or so girls beside her and instructed them as well.
The group of them looked dainty and pretty, and they were a feast for the eyes.
But in reality, not a single one of them was a vase that would shatter once touched.
On the contrary, all of them were students from the best class in the all-girls high school affiliated with Zhongzhou University.
The ten or so of them were all juniors.
Despite that, they were all Dark Iron Beast Tamers—every one of them, without exception.
Whip!
At this moment, an enormous, black Demon Centipede King sneakily stuck its head out from a corner of the palace.
"Get them!"
From a distance, the lady beside Ye Qiushan noticed that all of the Eternal Night Clan people were ready.
Immediately, she raised a hand and waved vigorously.
The Eternal Night Clan people who surrounded Fang Lan and the other girls, as well as those around the Silver Horn Beast Tamers, charged towards them in a split second.
Fang Lan had expected them to charge and attack both the Cerulean Planet and Silver Horn Beast Tamers at the same time.
However, contrary to her belief, everyone charged towards her and her girls at the same time.
"This is bad!"
Fang Lan's heart seized as she watched the scene unfold.
She immediately signalled for the students to let their beasts out and face the Eternal Night Clan Beast Tamers in combat.
"Friends of the Silver Horn Clan, these Eternal Night Clan Beast Tamers wish to drive us out of this place before they strike at you.
"They wish to take us down in one fell swoop.
"We ask of you to fight with us and not fall into their trap.
"If we retreat, their next targets will definitely be you!"
Fang Lan directed the students by her side as she commanded her own beast.
At the same time, she was shouting.
She was reminding the Silver Horn Beast Tamers opposite her.
Dozens of meters away, ten or so Beast Tamers were all looking at each other.
Before this, they had already made the preparations to engage in combat.
They did not expect the Eternal Night Clan people who had surrounded them so completely to act so unpredictably.
Before they struck, all of them suddenly charged towards Fang Lan.
Not a single one of Eternal Night Clan Beast Tamers moved towards them.
This made them hesitate a little.
They did not know if they should move.
Woof!
At this time, out in the distance, there were five Demon Arctic Sound Wolves under the Eternal Night Clan Beast Tamers' control.
They walked out from a corner and, in unison, charged towards the Cerulean Planet Beast Tamers.
As they approached the ten or did young Cerulean Planet girls, the five Demon Arctic Sound Wolves suddenly let out in unison a howl so incomparably lonely.
Fang Lan and the other teenage Beast Tamers were plunged into a dreamscape along with their beasts in a split second.
It felt like they had gone to a sprawling icefield devoid of any human presence.
Under such circumstances where they were alone with no help, Demon Icefield Wolves with eyes that glinted blue suddenly appeared around them.
"Coco!"
The moment they plunged into that dreamscape, Fang Lan immediately startled awake from it with a bite of her lip.
At the same time, she called out lowly and forcefully shook the adorable young girl beside her.
At the same time, this young girl called Coco roused.
"Silvery Spirit Bamboo!"
Coco's heart shook a little, and she summoned the beast she had been saving as a trump card.
This beast of hers was, impressively, green bamboo that grew about four to five meters tall.
The moment this green bamboo appeared, its many leaves started shaking instantly. There were light glimmering and the pleasing sound of a piano that resonated far and loud.
It thoroughly suppressed the howls of the five Demon Icefield Wolves.
On top of that, the Beast Tamers and beasts around it felt refreshed, and their aura power multiplied.
They pulled away from the dreamscape.
Whoosh!
And yet, just then, Ye Qiushan and his Demon Centipede King, who both had been hiding away in the corner of the palace, chose this moment to stop hiding.
It moved bodily and burrowed out at the speed of light.
And then it came within ten meters of this group of young Beast Tamers.
When it did, it opened its mouth wide and spat out a mouthful of black, poisonous fog at them.
This poisonous fog was only about half a meter big when it was first spat out.
But as it hurtled forward, it expanded to about ten meters big in an instant.
Shing!
Shing!
The leaves on Coco's Silvery Spirit Bamboo shook when it caught sight of the ball of poisonous fog coming for them.
The song that it was singing, the one that lifted spirits, changed in a split second.
It transformed into the song of blades.
Accompanied by that was beams of light given off by the blades careening through the air as they pierced right through the toxic fog spat out by the Demon Centipede King.
The swords had all but torn through the toxic fog in a heartbeat.
But this toxic fog was YQS's ultimate move.
It might have been ripped apart by the blades, but some of it still fell onto the young Beast Tamers of Cerulean Planet, as well as onto their beasts.
They instantly felt all of their strength flow a lot less smoothly and powerfully.
"Die!"
Fang Lan's face contorted with rage as she watched this scene unfold.
She raised a finger, and her beast, the Greenhill Culpeo, directed its greenlit gaze onto the Demon Centipede King in the distance.
This caused the Demon Centipede King's body to freeze, where it stood instantly.
Whoosh!
At the same time, her other beast, the Sonic Sundering Swordbird, flashed in the sky.
It then turned into a sword that beamed radiantly as it appeared right in front of the Demon Centipede King.
Fang Lan's beast had morphed into a beaming sword that was ready to behead the Demon Centipede King.
One of the Eternal Night Clan women with a sharp chin suddenly walked out from the back.
She stood in front of the Demon Centipede King.
The lady's movements were rapid.
But even more rapid was her beast, the Underworld Swordsman.
There was a clang, and then a one-armed swordsman made entirely and only of bones used its sword of bone to parry Fang Lang's Sonic Sundering Swordbird.
"It's you?"
Fang Lan's eyes widened.
She had crossed paths with this lady before.
Although she had the upper hand at that time, she knew this Eternal Night Clan lady's power was not to be underestimated.
Much less now, when they were so outnumbered by the Eternal Night Clan Beast Tamers surrounding them.
"Little lass, you think I'm just going to let you lay a hand on my younger brother's beast?"
The sharp-chinned Eternal Night Clan lady laughed coldly when she saw Fang Lan looking at her.
And then, she commanded for her Underworld Swordsman to charge quickly at Fang Lan.
She also summoned her other beast, the Demon Bone Serpent King.
This one she set on Fang Lan and all the rest of them.
"Go to hell!"
At the same time, Ye Qiushan, who had been hiding far away, finally walked out of the darkness.
He stood atop his Two-Headed Bat. With a flip of the bat's wings, he was above Fang Lan and the rest of them.
Screech!
The THB's two heads let out a horrifying noise at the same time.
Instantly, one of the young girls from Cerulean Planet felt a splitting headache.
She could not help but plunge into a half-conscious state.
She could only watch as Ye Qiushan steered the Two-Headed Bat right across her and landed a fist right on her chest. There was a rumble, and then her chest had been beaten in, and she was sent flying bodily back.
"Wang Yulia!"
Fang Lan, Coco, and the rest were all shocked as they watched it happen.
But Ye Qiushan, who had sent this young girl called Wang Yuliu flying bodily with one fist, refused to let her go.
He stepped on the back of the Two-Headed Bat, steered it, made it circle a little, and caught up with Wang Yuliu very quickly. He got ready to make the Two-Headed Bat use its claws to completely tear the girl apart right in front of the other Cerulean Planet girls.
Doong!
But at this time, the space in front of Wang Yulia warped.
And then immediately after, a looming figure strode out of it.
"What the hell?"
Ye Xuan had been transported here by the warped space, and he saw Ye Qiushan standing on his Two-Headed Bat, charging right towards him.
His heart stirred when he saw the man.
The man seemed rather familiar.
But Ye Xuan did not have the time to dwell on it too much or even assess his surroundings.
From his shoulders, Lil Wan saw Ye Qiushan charging towards him, so she waved a hand and lashed out with an Ironwood Royal Vine Whip. It lashed out like a green flying snake, careening towards Ye Qiushan.
"It's you!"
Ye Qiushan instantly recognized Ye Xuan, who had suddenly appeared.
His face twisted when he saw Ye Xuan, and he immediately steered the Two-Headed Bat to dodge Lil Wan's attack, speedily flying backwards.
"What's going on?"
Behind, the sharp-chinned Eternal Night Clan lady frowned a little as she watched.
"Qiuyun, this is the Cerulean Planet guy I was talking about!" Ye Qiushan immediately responded when he heard her question.
"Oh?"
The lady raised a brow when she heard YQS's response. She looked at Ye Xuan, who was in the distance, and then said, "So you're the one from Cerulean Planet who scammed my little brother?"
Scammed?
Ye Xuan was stunned.
He took a careful look at Ye Qiushan before finally recognizing the other.
"I didn't scam him. He's too useless."
Ye Xuan laughed coldly after he recognized who Ye Qiushan was.
At the same time, he was scanning his surroundings, and he managed to get a good look at the field.
Whoosh!
Lil Wan saw the collapsed Cerulean Planet girl behind Ye Xuan. She waved a hand.
A green beam floated and landed on the girl.
The young girl's chest wound quickly healed.
At the same time, the blood flowed back into her face in an instant.
She was no longer as deathly pale as she had been.
Lil Wan's Spiritwood technique was most effective when used on a Divine Wood Guard.
Its effects were a little lesser when used on a body of flesh and blood.
That said, it was still a lot better than if it were used on the Tyrannosaurus or even Xu Canchan's Gigantic Buddha of Metal and Stone.
"Wuliu!"
The students of Zhongzhou University's affiliated high school rushed over to check up on the young girl. As they watched the scene play out, the gaze they directed at Lil Wan was one of gratitude.
"You have to be careful, Qiuyun, this guy has another beast, and that beast of his is extremely adept at concealing itself. It can appear beside someone just like that, out of nowhere!" Ye Qiushan instructed his older sister in a small voice. He had returned to stand beside the Eternal Night Clan lady.
"Extremely adept at concealing itself? Can appear out of nowhere?"
The lady's lips curled up into a smirk when she heard that. She looked at another Eternal Night Clan Beast Tamer.
There was a Hundred-Eyed Demon Bug sprawled on this Beast Tamer's shoulders.
This demon bug was the best when it came to perception.
With the bug around, not many Dark Iron beasts could evade its detection.
And get close to her.
