"Greetings, elders." The crowd around bowed to the five elders.
With the elders nodding, five elders ca forward and their eyes imdiately fell on Su Yi and Feng Qier. They raised their heads to look at the sky, waiting for sothing.
"Will they be here soon?"
"Sending two people every year can protect the peace of our clan."
"…"
There were murmurs in the crowd, waiting for the people to be sent away early so that the clan could restore peace and safety for the year.
"Feng Qier has a tough life too!"
"She has been sick since she was little. She might end up hurting soone soday. It's good that she can do sothing for the clan now."
"Don't say that. After all, she's just an unlucky child."
"…"
So people whispered and looked indifferent as they watched Feng Qier being taken away, as if it was expected.
So people felt a slight sympathy and hesitated, but it was still better than letting their own children be sent to death.
Feng Qier stood on top of a giant rock, looking down at the elder and others below, and respectfully gave a bow.
The elder, Elder Feng Yue, and others had a flicker in their eyes, seeming unable to et Feng Qier's gaze directly, but that was all.
That elder from Law Hall, the gloomy old man who had done sothing behind the scenes, had a consistently cold and indifferent expression in his eyes.
"Evil aura…"
Su Yi subtly glanced around, and suddenly felt a strong evil aura perating from a distance.
Almost at the sa ti, the elder, Elder Feng Yue, and others' gazes changed, emitting a radiance as they looked towards the front.
From the far reaches of the void, from the direction of the rising sun, a blurry silhouette erged and soared, gliding like a dark cloud, casting a huge shadow over the mountains below.
"They're here, the demon beasts are here!"
The crowd in the square imdiately beca restless, their eyes filled with fear.
"Roarrrr…"
The beast's roar was as loud as thunder, piercing through the clouds. A large group of fierce birds spread their wings, so fierce beasts leapt into the air. Soon, they appeared in the sky above the square from a distance.
Shadows covered the view, casting a dark shadow over the mountains.
Powerful forces descended, strong winds swept through the forest, sand and stones flew. Birds and beasts trembled in fear, making people tremble and shudder!
Su Yi looked up and saw a vast group of demon beasts, numbering in the hundreds. Their wings covered the sky, spreading across half of the horizon.
Various types of energy dispersed, spreading an extrely terrifying aura.
The first beast was a huge one, with a wingspan of nearly twenty yards. Its head resembled that of an eagle and a lion, with a sharp beak emitting a chilling light. Its body was covered in golden feathers like iron armor, sharp and radiant. Its claws were razor-sharp, and its fierce eyes were like blood moons, filled with a fearso intensity. Its aura was incredibly powerful, sending chills down one's spine. If it looked at soone, it felt as if their soul would tremble, and their body would beco weak.
"The Golden Gryphon from the Demonic Void Realm."
Su Yi trembled, as he saw this rare Golden Gryphon.
The Golden Gryphon is a powerful demon beast with a high bloodline, known for its fierce and swift nature.
It is said that the powerful mbers of the Golden Gryphon clan have bodies covered in golden armor-like feathers, strong enough to rival Dao Tools and Dharma Tools. They are truly terrifying.
Feeling the aura emanating from the Golden Gryphon, Su Yi estimated that it was at least at the seventh or eighth grade of the Yuan Void Realm.
Even if they are not able to defeat it, cultivators below the Yuan Emperor Realm should be able to escape from such a powerful Golden Gryphon.
Beside the Golden Gryphon, there was also a silver giant leopard, nearly ten ters long and several ters tall. Its body shimred with silver light, as if glowing with runes. Its fierce eyes and hooves seed to emit mist.
There was also a red fierce monkey, covered in red light and emitting a hot aura. However, its eyes were pitch black, like a black hole.
The red fierce monkey was the smallest in size, less than three ters tall, but its aura was just as strong as the silver giant leopard.
"Cloud-Stepping Silver Leopard，Red Wind Black-Eyed Demon Monkey."
Su Yi had never seen these two creatures before, but he was getting to know them.
The Cloud-Stepping Silver Leopard and Red Wind Black-Eyed Demon Monkey are both fierce monsters of the demon race.
At this mont, the aura emanating from the Cloud-Stepping Silver Leopard and Red Wind Black-Eyed Demon Monkey is not much weaker than that of the Golden Gryphon.
"Roarrrr…"
As this group of fierce creatures descended, their aura was ferocious and their roaring never ceased.
Around the square, fearful gazes erged, trembling with fear as they retreated one after another.
Only five elders and a group of powerful individuals remained, their auras quietly surging.
"Humph!"
The Red Wind Black-Eyed Demon Monkey and Cloud-Stepping Silver Leopard looked down at the crowd below. They snorted coldly and looked down on the group like ants.
The Golden Gryphon looked at the elders, including Elder Feng Yue, and then turned its gaze towards Su Yi and Feng Qier on the giant rock. Finally, its fierce blood-red eyes focused on Su Yi, and a voice ca from its sharp beak, "This kid seems to be a bit inadequate this year. The Yin-yang Dark Emperor wants a chubby little kid, but this one isn't chubby enough."
"Sir, this kid is the best we have selected from our tribe. Although he's not very fair, he has extraordinary talent and looks good. I'm sure Lord Yang Ming will like him."
Chief Elder Law Hall imdiately said to the Golden Gryphon, with a hidden chill in his gloomy eyes, but externally showing humility and respect.
"If Lord Dark Emperor Yin-Yang Ming doesn't like it, then you should prepare yourselves for the consequences."
The Golden Gryphon snorted coldly, spread its huge wings, and extended its sharp claws. A strong bloody and fierce aura enveloped the surroundings. Its claws landed on Su Yi's and Feng Qier's shoulders, binding them with invisible force.
The Golden Gryphon seed to be careful not to hurt Su Yi and Feng Qier. It then spread its wings and flew away.
"Roarrrr…"
A group of fierce demon beasts roared, spread their wings, and made a deafening sound. They stirred up a strong wind and disappeared into the sky towards the rising sun.
Look at that group of frightening demon beasts in the distance. The people around the square are slowly coming back to their senses. They still have fear in their eyes because those demon beasts are powerful and ferocious, making them feel afraid and uneasy.
"I hope that boy can pass the test, or else we will be in big trouble!"
"He should be able to pass the test. If we had known earlier, we should have found a way to make him appear more innocent."
So people are worried that the Golden Gryphon finds the boy not innocent enough and they fear that the Demon Emperor will dislike it. If that happens, he will surely get angry.
"That Yin-yang Dark Emperor, Yang Ming, is attracted to both n and won. When that ti cos, that boy will probably be the one who suffers."
"It's a pity for Feng Qier. She has had a strange illness since childhood, and no one dares to marry her. It's the Demon Emperor who benefits from it."
