The Spirit War

Seeing that they were losing more and more ground, the beasts growled and howled. The humanoid beasts had incredibly ugly expressions on their faces as they were contemplating what to do.

Hui Yue and his friends were unaware of what had sparked this conflict. They had arrived in the middle of it, and the world by keeping them here had forced them to pick a side.

Knowing full well that sylphs were on the world's side, they had quickly decided to side with the spirits, but as for what exactly had happened, they still did not know.

Therefore, they did not know if this was a battle where they should fight till the last beast was slain, or if they were allowed to retreat.

They did not know how much enmity laid behind each other in this battle, and therefore, they were hesitating slightly in their fight with the humanoid beasts. For them they felt no hostility towards these ancient beasts and their army, they had just been forced to join the fray.
