The arrival of the Beast Tide made all the monks in Fiery Sun City tense, each with their own reasons for staying here.

Some stayed for their families, others for memories, and some simply because they had no way to leave.

But when the Beast Tide arrived, the fate of every monk staying in Fiery Sun City was intertwined with their companions.

On the towering and wide city walls of Fiery Sun City, General Zhao was commanding his monks to transport supplies to the front line.

Although Fiery Sun City had been preparing for a whole month to resist the Beast Tide, the predominant emotion in the monks' hearts was still fear.

"Prepare more crossbow arrows here! Don't let those beasts overrun our walls!"

"Your homes are right behind you! Your wives and children are behind you!"

"Only if you hold on and repel these Sain Beasts can your families safely endure this disaster!"

"Do not fear, I, Zhao Xin, am right beside you!"

Although Bai Yan felt an inexplicable familiarity with the name Zhao Xin, he was still quite moved to see him so dutifully guarding this piece of land they depended on for survival.

So even though the fate of Fiery Sun City had nothing to do with him, Bai Yan still planned to lend them a hand.

For someone as powerful as Bai Yan, acting as he pleased was not particularly difficult.

In the eyes of some, Bai Yan was a terrifying Demon, but in the eyes of the citizens and monks of Fiery Sun City, Bai Yan was a God, a God sent to redeem them.

Of course, Bai Yan wasn't doing it for nothing. He had made an agreement with Zhao Xin that if he helped them repel this Beast Tide, he would choose a portion of the citizens from Fiery Sun City to migrate to the Divine Kingdom voluntarily.

Bai Yan wanted to develop the Divine Kingdom, and ultimately that required population.

Currently, the Divine Kingdom's need for population to sustain the creatures Bai Yan sacrificed wasn't very large, but as Bai Yan's strength continued to grow, requiring more demonic energy, the population he needed would also increase.

Bai Yan had been considering whether to bring citizens from other planes, like the Biochemical Plane, to become his citizens.

Later he thought it was better to leave it, as the risk wouldn't be worth it due to other potential troubles.

Moreover, the population in the Main Plane was also considerable, along with the vast Endless Star Sea, scraping population from there was enough.

Fiery Sun City was just Bai Yan's first stop, and as he continued, he would naturally contact more populations.

This way, resolving the population scarcity of the Divine Kingdom Plane wouldn't be as difficult.

But right now, the most important thing was to resolve the present Beast Tide.

Although Bai Yan had decided to help Fiery Sun City, he didn't plan to act immediately.

Only when Fiery Sun City was on the verge of being crushed, and the citizens were helpless, would he step forward to reassure them and repel these Sain Beasts. This way, the citizens of Fiery Sun City would be more respectful to Bai Yan.

And only then could the completion of Bai Yan's plan be maximized.

Fundamentally, Bai Yan wasn't a good person.

Outside the city, the so-called Sain Beasts forming the Beast Tide were frantically surging towards Fiery Sun City.

Bai Yan was stationed in the Void, and after discussing with Zhao Xin, he remained there.

Zhao Xin didn't expect Bai Yan to help them from the start; having Bai Yan stay in Fiery Sun City and act when critical was already very reassuring for him.

Bai Yan's Divine Thought spread out with the slightly warm wind, unnoticed by the monks of Fiery Sun City.

But when his Divine Thought touched these Sain Beasts, it caused a commotion.

The identical Sain Beasts seemed to have discovered something of great importance to them, changing from their normal slow walk to a frantic run.

The entire ground of Fiery Sun Star shook severely with the charge of these giant beasts weighing over twenty tons.

However, in Bai Yan's eyes, these identical Sain Beasts seemed to hide a mysterious aura, and it was this aura that felt somewhat familiar to him.

Bai Yan's Divine Thought wandered around Fiery Sun City, and every Sain Beast approaching the city was under his Divine Thought scrutiny with no secrets.

Yet he couldn't find out where this mysterious yet familiar aura was coming from.

It seemed like every Sain Beast had it, and at the same time, none of them did.

Bai Yan couldn't quite figure it out, but ultimately he chose to remain in the Void, wary of everything happening.

Having chosen to stay here, Bai Yan wouldn't easily give up, even though he was very curious about where this mysterious aura originated from.

As the monks of Fiery Sun City completed their preparations, all the Sain Beasts on Fiery Sun Star seemed to gather near Fiery Sun City.

They began attacking the city, and in Bai Yan's eyes, every Sain Beast was over 20 meters tall, more than 40 meters long, and weighed over 20 tons.

Such giant beasts appearing in Fiery Sun City posed a significant threat to the city's walls.

However, the monks of Fiery Sun City dared not leave the city; they could only rely on the walls to fend off the Sain Beasts, for if they left the city, it would lead to an even more horrifying result.

Every individual wasn't even as tall as the Sain Beast's finger, and the beasts only needed to stomp hard to turn them into mincemeat.

Finally, a Sain Beast approached the city wall, swinging its thick tail to launch the first attack.

The thick tail struck the wall, causing it to quake violently, almost knocking the monks standing on it down.

At the same time, monks on the wall began a desperate counterattack, wielding various weapons to unleash powerful attacks.

But these techniques, which might cause tremendous harm to humans, could not display their original strength against the Sain Beasts.

The thick scales on the Sain Beasts provided incredibly strong defensive power, making the attacks from the monks of Fiery Sun City seem like mere tickles to them.

Realizing their attacks were futile, most monks began to rely on siege weapons to deal with these Sain Beasts.

On the walls were various large crossbows and catapults, all hastily made within that month. Although the quality might not be exceptional, they were enough to cause significant damage to the Sain Beasts or even take them down.

Finally, the first Sain Beast approaching the wall was slain by the monks, its colossal body collapsing to the ground with a dull thud.

At the same time, cheers erupted from the wall—it meant so much to the monks.
