Chapter 1667 - Scorpion-Tail Lions
Everyone immediately went on full alert. Every giant there had been tempered through countless battles, making each of them a born warrior. They roamed the mountains year-round and had long since adapted to jungle warfare."It's only a Ground Spotted Rat!"
The rustling in the distance had come from a Ground Spotted Rat darting through the forest, and it had only triggered a false alarm.
Just as Liu Wuxie was about to leap down from the tree, his eyes suddenly narrowed. The Giant Clan lacked a powerful divine sense, leaving them nearly blind at night. But Liu Wuxie could still capture everything within a radius of one thousand meters.
"Prepare for battle!" Liu Wuxie shouted, and the giants who had just sat back down sprang to their feet once more.
"Young Master Liu, what's going on?" A'Wu asked. The dense forest severely restricted their sight, and they could see only about 100 meters ahead.
"There's a pack of Scorpion-Tail Lions closing in on us," Liu Wuxie replied. Through Ghost Pupil, his vision pierced the vines and caught sight of thousands of Scorpion-Tail Lions lurking all around them.
"Young Master Liu, are you certain?" A'Wu asked, his expression turning grave. If they were truly surrounded by more than a thousand Scorpion-Tail Lions, breaking free would be difficult.
Liu Wuxie had considered keeping the giants inside the interspatial pouch to make traveling easier, but the giants were not cultivators. If they stayed inside for too long, they would suffocate. On top of that, the pouch could not hold that many of them for long, given their sheer size.
"What's going on? Why are the Scorpion-Tail Lions here when they live in the western mountain ranges?" A'Li asked in confusion.
Logically, this region belonged to the Giant Clan's territory, and ordinary astral beasts would never dare to invade it. It was no wonder everyone's expressions changed after hearing Liu Wuxie's warning.
"I suspect the Heavenly Howling Moon Wolves are behind this. They're trying to stop us from harvesting the Radiant Golden Bull Fruits," A'Lei said. But with time running out, they had no room to investigate any further.
