Chapter 374 This is what I owe Joey

As Joey watched as Josie closed her eyes and fell into his arms, his eyes were filled with reluctance.

He carried her back to the small cave, put her inside, and then covered her with branches and stones.

“Xixi, Father Beast said that he would protect you no matter what happens, and this time will be no different.”

Joey's expression suddenly darkened, and he quickly released his aura before running away from Joey.

He had barely left when that ghostly figure appeared.

The leading figure in black looked at the blue halo swirling forward, his tone cold.

"Joey, you can't escape."

The shadowy figure vanished again, and when it reappeared, it had surrounded Joey on another mountain.

The war is about to start.

Huang Yue flapped his wings, sensing the commotion in the forest, and quickly swooped down to land. But as soon as he got closer, he felt a powerful aura that made it almost impossible for him to get any closer.

Kunlin and the others were also shocked; they had never seen such powerful beast soul energy before.

"You all need to stay away from each other."

Kunlin immediately found a spot a little further away to land.

Because of the great distance, they could only see some strange halos flashing past the spot they had just been in, and occasionally a huge tremor would come, making their feet tremble slightly.

Suddenly a loud bang was heard, and Kunlin and the others thought that the mountain had split open.

Huang Yue's expression suddenly turned grim. He quickly flew into the air and saw two black figures grabbing Joey and leading him in a certain direction.

Huang Yue was startled and tried to get closer, but a black figure suddenly appeared in mid-air and blocked his way.

Huang Yue looked up and her pupils contracted as she saw the other person's entire body covered in black feathers.

His dark eyes were devoid of any emotion, only coldly fixed on Huang Yue.

"Huang Yue, you're meddling in other people's business."

Huang Yue's expression darkened further. "What's the point of arresting him?!"

"That's not something you can interfere with."

As Huang Yue watched Qiao Yi's figure recede into the distance, he anxiously tried to rush forward, but as soon as he moved, Qiao Yi flapped her wings, and a huge gust of wind swept over him, almost causing Huang Yue to lose his balance.

Upon seeing this, Kunlin and the others quickly flew forward, but the wind was too strong, and they had no way to confront it head-on, so they could only dodge.

When the giant wind dissipated, Huang Yue could no longer see Joey's figure.

The figure in black glanced at him disdainfully, then turned and left.

Huang Yue wanted to catch up, but he found that he couldn't keep up with the other person's speed at all.

Kunlin followed, but the dark figure had completely disappeared from sight, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He was considered one of the best among the Winged Clan. In the past, he could catch up with even a beastman with a level 10 beast soul, no matter how hard he tried. But just now, even though he was fast enough, he couldn't even see a hair on the other person's head before the other person disappeared.

"Lord of the city, who exactly is that person? They are... terrifying."

Huang Yue stared at the direction where Qiao Yi had disappeared, his face grim. "That was one of the ten beast guards of the watchtower."

Upon hearing this, even Kunlin's cold eyes showed shock.

"The Ten Beast Guards of the Watchtower..."

In the mountains and forests, Jin Lin and the others followed Qiao Xixi's scent and found their way there.

Crimson Flame quickly sniffed around and finally found the cave where Josie XZ was. After using its claws to clear away the rocks and branches hidden outside the cave, it saw Josie lying quietly inside.

"Xixi."

Jin Lin and the others heard the commotion and quickly came over.

Fei Yan had transformed into human form and carried Qiao Xixi out of the cave. "Xixi, Xixi, wake up."

Qiao Xixi slowly opened her eyes. Before she could even see Fei Yan's face clearly, she hugged him and choked out, "Father Beast, Father Beast is gone. He went to lure away those beastmen..."

"Father Beast? Xixi, what exactly is going on?"

Xi Jing's voice was somewhat low, "Uncle Wolf Seven is Xi Xi's father beast."

Fei Yan was shocked. "What? It's Xi Xi's father beast?"

Sang Ze's wicked expression froze.

Jin Lin and Jun Xiao didn't show much surprise on their faces. Perhaps they had already guessed it, but just didn't say it out loud.

"Xixi, don't be sad. I'll take you back to the tribe first and let Falcon and the others go after them."

The hawk had been sniffing Joey's scent the whole time. Joey had deliberately released her beast soul energy earlier, so there was still a lot of her scent left.

He glanced at Qiao Xixi's red eyes and said in a deep voice, "Feiyan, Xijing, take Xixi back first, we'll go after them."

"Ah."

Qiao Xixi stood up anxiously.

"I'll go with you."

“Xixi, those orcs are very strange. We can’t let you take risks. You go back first, and we will find the father beast as soon as possible.”

"Don't bother looking for them, you can't catch them."

Upon hearing the sound, Qiao Xixi and the others looked up and saw Huang Yue descending from mid-air in front of them.

Do you know who they are?

Huang Yue looked at Qiao Xixi: "They are the beast guards of the watchtower, here to capture your father beast."

Upon hearing the words "watchtower," Jin Lin and Jun Xiao's expressions darkened considerably.

"What exactly is this watchtower?"

Huang Yue subconsciously reached for his clothes, and when he found nothing, his expression became even more anxious.

"That's where the most ferocious beasts are imprisoned. Anyone judged as a ferocious beast by the Beast King City will be locked up there."

Qiao Xixi clenched her fists. "What did my father do to deserve being locked up there?"

Huang Yue raised his head and looked at Qiao Xixi with deep eyes, "He almost killed the Beast King back then."

Qiao Xixi frowned, "The Beast King of Beast King City?"

Huang Yue nodded, "That's right. I don't know the specific reason. You should all go back and stop worrying about this. You can't fight against Beast King City."

"He is my father beast, how could I possibly abandon him!"

Huang Yue frowned. "You can't save Joey. He's willing to give in today because he doesn't want to involve you. Joey, don't let his efforts be in vain."

Qiao Xixi clenched her fists. "City Lord Huangyue knows where the watchtower is."

Huang Yue frowned even more, frequently rummaging through his body. When he finally pulled out a small fruit and held it in his hand, the anxiety between his brows finally subsided a little.

"It's in Beast King City, but I don't know its exact location."

"Thank you for telling me, Lord Huangyue."

Huang Yue looked at Qiao Xixi's features, which almost perfectly matched the image in his memory. He sighed and said, "Never mind, you're just as stubborn as his son. If you're willing, I'll let Kunlin stay and help you."

Qiao Xixi was somewhat surprised, "Why would City Lord Huangyue help me?"

Huang Yue looked down at the fruit in her hand. "Because this is what I owe Joey."

Qiao Xixi looked at Kunlin and nodded. She had experienced the power of those beast guards firsthand, so having an extra helper wouldn't be a bad thing for her.

"Alright, then I'll thank City Lord Huangyue in advance."
