He severed the head of a leopard in less than a blink of an eye. That also goes to the rest of the spritual beasts that still continue to discard their life.

Regardless of the type of beast that attacked him, Wei Jiayi killed it effortlessly.

Gao Lan Mei watched Wei Jaiyi who went into slaughter like it is nothing, not sure to be happy for being saved or to be scared that he can also this to her anytime if he wishes.

So the rumor that he is a clean freak is not true, with the way he used his own claws to kill, allowing some of the blood to smear his face and robes.

She does not even know if that rumor is from her the memories of the original owner of her body or just her a.s.sumption.

The suddenly, the beasts slowly moved back from Wei Jiayi, crouching low, cowering in fear, giving up with their attack. Most that are left are ice wolves that moved with packs.

Even the white lion that circled around her also moved back, despite it now being part of the beasts who initially attacked and surrounded Wei Jiayi.

Wei Jiayi ignored those who moved back so he can go back to Gao Lan Mei immediately.

Their eyes met intently. His neck covered with scales, he is looking at her with his mismatched gray and yellow eyes with a frown, surveying her, checking if she is unharmed.

The beasts already flee away from him, but he is still not back to normal. After making sure that she is unhurt, he proceeds on surveying the place in full alert ready to pounce to anything that has ill intent.

However, regardless of how he far he extends his senses, the one that caused their current predicament is well hidden.

Even partially s.h.i.+fted, Wei Jaiyi understood this as his rational side still clings like a broken melody reminding the savage side to continue being alert. That is the reason why he is not leaving going to follow the beast that runs away.

He knows that the spiritual beasts attacking suddenly is not just a coincidence with the way they seem to intentionally get his attention, even if it causes their own lives.

Spiritual beasts sense danger and get away from it, not the other way around.

When Gao Lan Mei went out of the ritual circle, despite his b.l.o.o.d.y appearance, he immediately circled his arms around her and vanished on the spot.

…

Another part of Mount Hua

A man standing at the edge of the cliff is intently looking at his...o...b..saw Wei Jiayi and Gao Lan Mei who vanished and left the piled up dead spiritual beasts.

Sadly he cannot look further if they went back to the Wei Prince courtyard as they might have already placed a tier four defense barrier.

There is no problem breaking it, but he won't able to do so silently. He will just have to send a message to the mole inside.

Tilting his head, "Hmm, so we need to get rid of him before we can get close to her." He uttered indifferently likes its not a big deal.

The man is wearing an all white robe. When looking at his back, anyone will let their guard down. As he looks like a lonely traveler, watching how the sun set while at the edge of the cliff.

However, when one found out how he looks like, they will immediately move away.
