"Hmm? Is that the sound of the Blood Poison Beast?"
The man in black's eyes quickly lit up, as the roar was different from other fierce beasts—it sounded very much like the Blood Poison Beast that guarded the Thousand-Year-Old Blood Lotus. He had spent many years in the Blood River Valley and was quite familiar with the cries of the Blood Poison Beast.
"Let's go take a look."
Ye Xuan's eyes also brightened slightly. The Blood Poison Beast was indeed the guardian of the Thousand-Year-Old Blood Lotus. If they found the Blood Poison Beast, it meant they had found the Thousand-Year-Old Blood Lotus and, likely, the Blood Lotus Heart.
The trio didn't delay and quickly rushed towards the area from where the sound had come.
...
In a canyon, several figures dressed in uniform black robes were attacking a fierce beast, and the battle's aftershocks were spreading all around, shaking the ground and the mountains.
