Chapter 594: Five hundred ninety-three, guess
Seeing Xiao Xun approach, dragging his feet, impatience flashed in his eyes. "Where have all those Demon Beasts gone? They’ve vanished before I even had the chance to demonstrate my formidable strength."
"Just now, three Cultivators emerged from the City Lord Mansion, and it was they who ordered the Demon Beasts to retreat." The Cultivator had been not far from Song Yan Ning and her companions at the time. Had he not seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that so many Demon Beasts could cleanly retreat at just a human’s command.
"What?" A look of disbelief flickered across Xiao Xun’s eyes. He knew who had just come out of the City Lord Mansion but he did not believe that they had such capability.
Regaining his composure, he asked in a cold voice, "Is this true?"
"Indeed... indeed," the Cultivator affirmed vigorously with a nod.
With a cold snort, Xiao Xun turned and walked back to the City Lord Mansion. Now that the Demon Beasts had retreated, he couldn’t possibly lead people into Wanshou Forest; that would be akin to seeking death. No matter how strong he was, he was no match for tens of thousands of Demon Beasts.
Surprised to see Xiao Xun return so quickly, the City Lord asked, "Why have you come back?"
"The Demon Beasts have already left Yunlan City," Xiao Xun replied. Still, he did not believe that Song Yan Ning and her two companions had such ability.
