CHAPTER 444: CHAPTER 254: QUELLING THE IMMORTAL BEAST RIOT

After the Great Elder went out, it didn’t take long before his voice was heard:

"Come out."

Lin Chen and the others were overjoyed and quickly followed him out, looking up to see that they were indeed outside.

Lin Chen and the others felt a great sense of relief, the danger was finally over, and Yang Lao Xie was actually planning to sacrifice everyone to live a second life.

The Great Elder looked back and still left some signals inside, saving a few was better than nothing.

Finally, the Great Elder said, "Let’s leave here first."

After saying this, they returned to Hengshan City. The news hadn’t spread yet, and the Great Elder went to the Beast Tamer Guild to inform them and the Dubhe Pavilion.

Yang Lao Xie’s act was against humanity, and top-level forces must be mobilized to eliminate it.

When the president of the Beast Tamer Guild in Hengshan City heard this, he couldn’t believe it, but the prestige of the Spirit Academy Great Elder was undeniable, forcing him to believe.

"What should I do now?" The guild president never imagined that such a catastrophic disaster would fall upon him.

If this matter wasn’t handled well, he might as well give up his position as president.

The Great Elder said, "Evacuate the crowd as much as possible, and report this matter to the Dubhe Pavilion as soon as possible."

"Okay, okay." The guild president nodded repeatedly, feeling extremely frightened at this moment.

Immortal Beast causing chaos?

This was not a disaster he could handle.

Soon, the news spread, and the signals left by the Great Elder helped a small number of people escape.

The president of Hengshan City’s Beast Tamer Guild also announced the evacuation notice through the guild machine. When the announcement was made, the whole city was in an uproar. People were skeptical, yet some risked staying to see the Immortal Beast.

After finishing everything, the Great Elder was ready to leave.

This was not a foe the Great Elder could face; perhaps if the Tree Ancestor came, there would be a chance for a battle.

"Where is Xu Feng?" Turning back, the Great Elder asked Lin Chen, who was still pinching the fish.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen looked up and was momentarily stunned.

Xu Feng was right there just a moment ago, but now he was nowhere to be seen?

Just as he was puzzled, Wu Chen said, "When we entered the city, he ran away, saying he was afraid other forces would cause trouble for him. He also asked me to tell Junior Brother that he would be at Celestial Realm Mountain waiting for him."

Then Lin Chen remembered the matter of the Ancient Book, but Xu Feng was indeed clever.

So many people died in this incident. Although the blame wouldn’t fall on him, since he discovered the ruin, someone was bound to scapegoat him.

People are inherently malicious.

Lin Chen didn’t have time to care about these matters now; his mind was fully occupied with saving the fish.

Ever since the Xiao Lan Fish consumed the Beast Immortal Pill, it had been in a state of coma, which greatly worried Lin Chen.

The Great Elder also took this seriously. If the Xiao Lan Fish hadn’t swallowed the elixir whole, the Great Elder’s fate might have been like everyone else’s.

Thus, the Great Elder was extremely cautious, considering that the Xiao Lan Fish had saved his life.

"Could it be a counterfeit drug?" Lin Chen was deeply concerned.

The Great Elder pondered for a moment before saying, "Its vital signs haven’t weakened, so it should be fine."

"As for the Beast Immortal Pill, it’s likely not a fake."

"Could Yang Lao Xie have eight Beast Immortal Pills?" Wu Chen was incredulous, not believing it.

Lin Chen also found it hard to believe.

But the Great Elder explained, "It’s most likely that the eight pills combined to make the true Beast Immortal Pill."

"You mean, they’re all real, just separated?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen was stunned. If it were truly the Beast Immortal Pill, ordinary Spirit Beasts wouldn’t be able to consume it.

The potency was too strong, posing the risk of their bodies exploding.

"Once we leave here, I’ll find a healer to see if the elixir’s potency inside it can be dissipated," the Great Elder was also worried about Xiao Lan Fish having issues.

If Xiao Lan Fish could absorb this potency, it would be a great fortune for it.

Lin Chen nodded.

They didn’t delay and quickly left Hengshan City. However, not long after leaving, they heard a piece of news.

"Zhong Nan has arrived."

They could see that everyone was excited once they heard Zhong Nan had arrived. The Great Elder stepped forward to inquire, learning it was true, and saw Zhong Nan riding a Spirit Dragon near the ruin.

The Great Elder heaved a great sigh of relief, but Lin Chen worriedly said, "Could he be at a disadvantage?"

Lin Chen knew a bit about Zhong Nan’s condition; having been attacked in White Emperor City, it was clear Zhong Nan was very weak.

But the Great Elder said, "The power of the dragon vein here in Hengshan City is stronger than in White Emperor City. With the Dragon Transformation Skill, he should not be afraid."

....

Due to the beast tamer guild in Hengshan City announcing a city-wide evacuation, the news spread quickly nationwide.

When Yang Lao Xie’s actions were exposed, people were abuzz with discussion.

"It was a trap; luckily, I didn’t go."

"Immortal Beasts are terrifying. It’s rumored that many top experts are caught inside, with their fates uncertain."

"The odds don’t look good. It’s said that the third master of the Wu Family is likely gone."

"In crucial times, we still must rely on the National Master’s Institute."

"If the National Preceptor himself takes action, it will be fine."

Originally, everyone’s attention was on the upcoming Heavenly Mountain Conference, but such an incident was now drawing all the attention.

Immortal Beasts, ruins, National Preceptor...

These words combined were enough to grab the spotlight.
