Chapter 1628 (2/2)

This was simply a miserable scene. The strong Black Star Sawtooth Sharks were getting killed without being able to retaliate, so the remaining ones dove into the water.

Even so, these Black Star Sawtooth Sharks found it difficult to escape the danger since these Cold Steel Eagles could enter the water for short periods.

Working together, the two Cold Steel Eagles lifted a Black Star Sawtooth Shark into the air, their hooklike claws digging deep into its flesh.

Then, the two Cold Steel Eagles flew in different directions, creating a b.l.o.o.d.y scene.

The Black Star Sawtooth Shark was torn apart, and its blood spilled into the air. The scene was so cruel that Xiao Chen could not bear to watch, either.

The remaining Black Star Sawtooth Sharks no longer dared to show themselves, diving deep into the sea.

Suddenly, the flute music became sharper, and the two Cold Steel Eagles flapped their wings and brought them together. Feathers containing cold Qi shot into the water.

Blood spread, and waves soared up from the bottom of the sea. The entire Black Star Sawtooth Shark tribe fled frantically far away in fear of being killed.

The two Cold Steel Eagles gained a complete victory!

Xiao Chen, who personally witnessed this scene, understood something: if he saw sea birds that could fly in the starry sea in the future, he should quickly avoid them.

These were the natural tyrants of the sea, the birds of the starry sea!

The tortoise beast remained in the water, carrying the smiling five people towards the Starry Sea Fluorescent Tree. Xiao Chen, who was in the tree hole, was immediately plunged back into danger.

He had originally been planning to use the chaos while the other party was fighting a ferocious battle with the Black Star Sawtooth Sharks to leave.

However, the battle ended up one-sided; there had been no chance at all.

If the other party knew that Xiao Chen had already emptied out the pure Life Juice Source of this tree, Xiao Chen would not survive even if he had nine lives.

The five on the tortoise beast chatted heartily. Xiao Chen, who was in the tree hole, could hear their conversation.

One kilometer…nine hundred meters…eight hundred meters…

When the tortoise beast was only five hundred meters away from the Tree of Life, Xiao Chen braced himself and came out of the tree hole.

Then, he revealed a happy smile as if seeing his savior. He performed a grateful cupped-fist salute and said, ”Junior Xiao Chen thanks the various seniors for saving my life.”

”Whoos.h.!.+”

When Xiao Chen suddenly appeared, he startled the five. Who could have antic.i.p.ated that there was someone among the hundreds of Black Star Sawtooth Sharks?

However, when the gray-robed old man saw that Xiao Chen was merely a half-step Primal Core cultivator, he immediately revealed a cold smile.

”Speak! Why are you in the Starry Sea Fluorescent Tree?” the gray-clad old man shouted, flaunting his might as he coldly eyed Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen calmed himself and explained unhurriedly, ”This junior's s.h.i.+p overturned in the storm, and everyone scattered. I was lucky and ran into this strange tree. However, those Black Star Sawtooth Sharks quickly surrounded me. Fortunately, Seniors made a move earlier, saving me.”

The gray-clad old man smiled and said, ”That is reasonable and logical. You are not fl.u.s.tered and did not try to avoid our gazes. You do not look like you are lying. However, do you think I will believe you?”

”No.”

When Xiao Chen heard that, he smiled helplessly. This gray-clad old man was experienced. Xiao Chen's acting skills would not get him through this problem.

However, it was a good thing that Xiao Chen had taken the initiative to reveal himself. Had he tried to flee right away, he would have died on the spot in the hands of three late-stage Major Primal Core Venerates.

When the gray-clad old man saw Xiao Chen's calm appearance, he laughed, ”Based on your air, you are no ordinary person. My Beast Governing Sect is a righteous sect and will not kill for no reason. Hand over your storage ring and follow us back to our Beast Governing Sect. After we verify your ident.i.ty, if you are not of an evil sect, we will naturally let you go.”

These conditions were very stringent; the gray-clad old man managed this very well, taking many things into consideration.

After living for so long, the gray-clad old man knew that there were some people who should not be killed. He trusted his judgment in this.

This white-clad youth before the gray-clad old man possessed an extraordinary air and did not fl.u.s.ter before danger. He was definitely not an ordinary person.

If the gray-clad old man could avoid killing this person, it would be best to do so. Obtaining this person's storage ring would already ensure he maximized his own benefits.

Otherwise, the seniors of this youth might come to find fault with them. The gray-clad old man knew when to advance and withdraw, coming out with a condition that the other party would have difficulty rejecting.

”Sorry, this junior cannot accept this condition.”

Xiao Chen immediately rejected the gray-clad old man's terms and pushed off with his feet to soar into the air.

Upon seeing Xiao Chen fly far away, the three Major Primal Core Venerates shook their heads slightly with mocking expressions on their faces.

With two Cold Steel Eagles by their side, this person actually dared to flee into the air in the starry sea.

Showing off was no good.

The flute music rang out again, and the two Cold Steel Eagles c.o.c.ked their heads back. Then, they locked their cold eyes on Xiao Chen before crying out and spreading their wings to take flight.

The others climbed onto the Tree of Life, no longer looking at Xiao Chen, considering him already a dead man.
