Chapter 459: The Return of the Diviners (2/2)

Although they wanted to risk their lives at battle, they were unwilling to throw away their lives. That was what would happen if they went to save the Vermilion Bird Clan's members for now.

The Vermilion Bird Clan Members were without a doubt at the very core of the Xiyang Army, and there had to be both King and Emperor ranked experts present there.

While they could ask Lan to help them, Xue Wei was very much against asking Lan for help. He preferred to rely on his own strength and not let others solve his problems for him.

Xue Wei understood that the Xiyang Continent had planned something big. Not only had they shared the rumors of wanting to gift the Vermilion Bird Clan members away, they were also mass recruiting new members to the army.

Xue Wei looked at Lin Xiao but saw that he was in deep thought. It was clear that the news he had heard were quite shocking to him, as his brows furrowed, and he looked down.

They heard more and more news about the army, and what they heard was quite shocking. The Xiyang Continent had not sent anyone to the Demon Phoenix Continent for a few months, and they had no intention of sending anyone now.

They were going to purge their own continent first, after which they would send all their soldiers to the Demon Phoenix continent and try to kill off the army in one fell swoop.

Xue Wei listened, but he had a hard time understanding whether or not it was true.

If even commoners knew about the plans of the army, how could the Demon Phoenix Continent not also know of the plans already? Was this a trap, or something similar?

The food arrived at the table, and Xue Wei, alongside his friends, dug into the food. They did not speak; they just focused on eating and listening, but nothing else appeared in the conversation of the many people in the inn.

They did not end up renting a room in the inn. Instead, they left the inn as soon as they finished eating. They roamed the town for a short while to see if there were any signs of doubts, but they saw nothing special, so they left the town and found a small hill where they sat down.

Here, they looked at one another and saw the grave and solemnity in each other's eyes.

”I am not sure about those Diviners,” Lin Xiao suddenly said. ”As far as I am aware, the Sovereign Beasts cannot be tamed. No Diviner should be capable of taming a Sovereign Beast, so I do not know how they can suddenly appear here with the ability to tame those Vermilion Bird Clan Members.”
